Dear 'Sir: Your I:L•iter, written in accordance with the authority granted by the Democratic State Convention, held at Harrisburgh, on the 9th ultimo, has been duly received. In reply, I have the honor to state, that I accept the appointment 'of Delegate to the National Convention; and Providence per mitting, shall be present on that interesting occasion, when it shall afford me sincere pleasure, in good faith, to the-hest of my ability, to carry out the wishes of the Democracy of Pennsylvania in nomi nating a candidate for the Presidency, and to vote fur JAMES BUCHANAN until a majority of my col leagues shall otherwise decide." Nor will this demand any extraordinary effort on my part. The claims of our State, and the merits of our candidate, have passed into a proverb. In the sublime science of President-making, the old Key stone State has served a long and faithful apprentice ship, and it is high time now that she should claim the privilege of setting up in the world for herself. When she seeks the recognition of her just claims, through the pre-eminence of her Favorite Son, I am inspired with full confidence, that the Democracy of the Union will no longer disregard the modest for bearance that has uniformly characterized her con duct in the glorious past. She claims it,- not as a boon, but as a right. ' Very respectfully, your friend, DAVID LYNCH. E. W. Horse, Esq., Chairman of the State Central Committee Wasterstavon, April 7, 1848. Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your circular of the 6th instant;and hasten to notify you, that I accept the appointment ofDelegate to the National Conven tion to be held at Baltimore, in May next, and with freedom and pleasure I give you my hearty pledge that "in good finith I will carry out, to the best of my ability, the wishes of the Democracy of Pennsyl vania, in nominating a candidate for the Presidency, and in that Convention I will continue to vote for Jams IitICHARAN," until nominated, or " until a-, majority of the Delegates from the State shall other wise decide." Independent of all pledges, I would consider my self derelict to every honorable obligation, could I disregard the earnest, united, and enthusiastic ex pression ofthe Convention that designated him as the choice of the Democracy of the State. In com mon with the Democracy I feel and claim, that some thing is due to Pennsylvania from our sister States, and I have the gratification to express the belief that, this sentiment is extensively reciprocated a mongst our brethren everywhere. The Keystone State presents, with her entire Democratic strength, I her Favorite Son, and asks for him, with unshaken confidence, the tribute due to his great abilities, his eminent public services, los lofty and unblemished integrity and due, alsn, in an equal degree, to her own claims and :services. In conclusion let me again assure you, that no honorable effort which shall be in my power to ex ert, shall be wanting to secure the nomination at Baltimore of Pennsylvaniars distinguished choice. With great regard, I am, yours truly, JAMES TH PSON. E. W. !Irma, Esc! , Cita trm.tn State Central Committee. SlaekNy Ater tiftriga I ton.

The follovving particulars are condensed from the London Tiines of the 15th _ THE CHARTIST DEIONSTRATION.—Qur description of the events ofthe day will perhaps most fitly com mence with the proceedings of THE CHARTHT CON TENT/on. The delegates re-assembled at 9 o'clock yesterday meriting, at the Literary and Scientific In atitute, John street, Fitzroy Square. Tke Secretary (Mr. C. Doyle,) said that he had re ceivcd a written communication from the Police Commissioners of the metropolis, stating that the national e petition would be allowed to be taken to the House of Commons, but that the proceedings would not be permitted to take place through the streets of London. The delegates left the hall with Mr. O'Connor at their head, and took their place in the car prepared for them. TAE DELEGATES PROCERSIon To KERN/NGTON COMBION.—Mr. O'Connor and the principal members ofthe Convention were loudly cheered by the crowd assembled outside the Institute - tdr they took their places in the car, a large and strongly-built vehicle drawn by six horses, sufficiently large to contain up wards of 50 persons. The delegates' car was pre ceded by another car of the same kind, intended to convey the national petition, and drawn by four horses. Both cars bad been expressly constructed I for the occasion, and were gaily painted and deco rated with flags, banners, and mottoes. Upon a large banner, at the head of the first car, in the Cha rtist colors of alternate red, white and green were inscribed the "six points" of the People's Cl ' iarier, viz : universal suffrage, annual Parliaments, irate by ballot, no property qualification, payment of members, and equal electoral districts. The cars left John street at five minutes past 10, amid the cheer, of the crowd. Mr. O'Connor oc cupied a centre seat in the front row of the dele gates, and was supported by the other members of the Thartist executive committee, Messrs. M'Grath (presidentl, C. Doyle, and T. Clark. Proceeding down Tottenham-court road and by St Gale's Church, the first car Stopped before the Chartist Land Corn pany's office. Here a short delay took place while the "national petition" was being brought out and lifted un i on the first car. The petition was rolled up into five huge bundles, resembling baler of cot ton in site, and placed upon a platform appointed to receive it on the car. This having been accomp lished amid the cheers ofthe crowd, the procession was again put in motion, and slowly advanced along 'Holborn. At the Elephant and Castle a cheer was given, and from this point along the Kensington road to the common, the crowd presented the ap pearance of a moving mass of upwards of 10,000 persons. It proceeded almost in aileece until the cars ar rived within sight of the congregated thousands al ready assembled upon the common. The delegates were now surrounded by an enthusiastic crowd, and received with deafening and prolonged cheers, which Mr. O'Connor and his broth-r delegates acknow ledged by waving their hats. The scene which burst upon the view of the relegates at this point was certainly grand and imposing. The processions of the various trades and societies which had alrea dy arrived were drawn up in military array at the outskirts of the common, with their several fl. grand banners, and also formed a line, through which the Lars advanced to the place of meeting. The centre of the common was occupied by a vast asNemblage, many of whom were soon seen hurrying in rapsd motion to welcome the Chartist leader,. As the cars advanced into the centre of the common, they were surrounded by a crowd, which every minute became inure dense, and who rent the air with their shouts. Here a person approached the car and addressed Mr. O'Conner with a message from Mr. Mayne, one of the Commissioners of Police, requesting to have an interview with him before the commencement of the proceedings. Mr. Mayne announced to Mr. O'Conner that the authorities would not object to the meeting taking place, but that the procession would not be permitted to pass over the bridges, that the Government were prepared with means of preventing it from taking place, and were fully de termined to use them if necesary. Finally, that it the procession was persevered in, (Mr O'Connor', must take the responsibility of ie consequences whatever they might be. Mr. O'Conner at once consented to do all that the Government wished, to abaudun the procession altogether, and he gave him hand to Mr. Mayne, as a pledge that he would do all in his power to induce the meeting to dispersr peaceably. On the motion of Mr. Clark, seconded by Mr. am,. Mr. Doyle was appointed president of the meet- ing, amidst very vociferous cheerii g. lie said,— Men of London; this is a sight such as was never witnessed in this vast metropolis before. Friends, I need not ask you to be peaceful in your eimdoet this day. I need not ask you to conduct yourselves with the greatest propriety; fur, recollect that-on yupr good conduct this day, on your peaceful but firm demeanor, depends the success of one of the most glorious causes ever agitated by man. (Clic ers./ In that van before you there lies a petition signed by nearly 6,000,000 of people, proveing beyond the possibility of successful refutation that we repre sent the the working men at least. The delegates of the people will do theirduty, but they will expect following you to do yours. (Loud cheers, and cries of "We rnislied b will.") Mr. O'Connor will first address you. Ile y : will give you not only his own opinion and advice, but the opinion and advice of the gentlemen cum . Abo. r posing the National Convention. 229 Mr. O'Connor proceeded to address the meeting, 267 dissuading them from violent and injudicious con 104 duct. In the course of his remarks, he said, well, 124 then, we have succeeded in holding our meeting to zs4 day; but I must tell you that the government has ta -346 I ken possession of all the bridges. I have always 338 been a man of determination, as you know, and a man of courage too; but how should I rest in my , ! bed to-night, if, through any incautious advice or expressions of mine, I made any of your wives wi dows. lion should I rest on my bed if I made any of those children who are dependant upon your ex ertions fatherless / If you have any true love for the cause—if you appreciate the trouble, anxiety the loss I have sustained to secure its promotion, 1 beg of you to countenance tin violence this day,— Therefore, my friends, what the Convention hare decided upon is, that we should not attempt to cross the bridges which are guarded by armed forces.— The huge petition which you have prepared, will be taken down to the House of Commons by the execti• tire, and I shall be there ready to present it, to pro test against the injustice which has this day been in flicted upon you, and to make your voice heard throughout the length and breadth of this land.— (Loud cheers.) Mr. O'Connor again exhorted the meeting not to damnge the cause by intemperance and and before concluding obtained, by a show of hands, a promise not to violate the law. A petition to the House of Commons, praying the rejection of the bill introduced on Friday night by Sir C. Gray, was unanimously agreed to, and the meeting was then declared dissolved. The five huge bundles comprising the petition and its signatures were then deposited in two calm, and conveyed, in the charge of the executive committee, to the House of Common.. The cars were dismant led of their trappings, and removed to a neighboring stable. The vast assembly then quietly dispersed, and in half an hour there were not a hundred people left on the Common. TETE DEFENSIVE ANILANGEMENTS or Gorcarrstracr. An advanced post of 500 men were placed at Ball's Livery Stables, Kennington, concealed from view, but ready to act at a moment's notice, if required. The main strength of the force, amounting to 2,290 men, was concentrated on the Bridges; 500 at West minister, 50 at Rungerford, 500 at Waterloo, and 500 at Blackfriars bridges. At the last mentioned bridge a large body of the city police were also posted, on the Middlesex side of the river. In Palace yard there was a reserve of 545 men; in Great George street, of 445; in Trafalgar square, of 690; and at the Prince's mews, 40; making a total of 1,680 men.— The number of police of all ranks in position was 3,970. The Thames division was disposed in 10 boats, placed at the bridges and at Whitehallstairs, to act upon the river, if theirservices were required. To support this disposition of the police, the Chel shea Pensioners, the military and artillery forces, and the special constabulary were arranged in the following manner: There were 400 of the pension ers at Battersea-Bridge, 500 at Vauxhall, 200 or 300.1 at the Pantechnicon, and a detachment at Blackfri ars, an placed in the houses on each side of Chub- ' ham-place as that their fire would command the pass age of the bridge. The whole number out amounted to 1500 men. The 62nd and 17th Regiments of in fantry were stationed at Millbaivk Penitentiary; a battalion of the Guards occupied the new Houses or Parliament, and another was posted at Charing ere* a body of infantry was placed in some houses which command W estminster -bridge; and the remaining troops of the line, amounting in all to 8000, were stationed at the different public offices, and in other positions, extending to the city and Tower, which had been wefully selected, as affording facilities fin military operations, should these become uniavoida, ble. 4455 4162 1797 3723 4006 2690 2308 The military in accordance with the well known We ingot ,tbe Doke of Wellington, remained irtrigi- ', ~ .:, ,,,: '.,, ; ;:t.- r ., '':'' -`-:--%' `, -,. .'---h '.,-. -:- ' - - ' l''.-:',.;_ , 1. -.'.- • ,:::'..

At 1 - o'clock be whited on Sir George 'Grey, andmfter stating.that the meeting, had quietly dispersed, eipiessed his thanks to ''the: Government for the forbearance with which they had acted on the • occasion. It is not a triumph over Chartism that we are claim ing; nor do we charge on those opinions any neces sary contradiction,to the spirit of the British Consti tution. On the contrary; we fully admit that the 'six points of the Charter' are honestand allowable doc trines. No one'can pretend, that our representative system is free from abuses and scandals, which de mand a continual rather than a final reform. THE Calms= Parminx.--The Chartists have certainly nothing to complain of in the manner in which their petition was received on Monday night. The Marquis of Lansdowne, speaking of it in the Lords, said feelingly and emphatically: That it had, in the other House of Parliament, re ceived that attention which all petitions emanating . from the people were entitled to have. In the House o(-Commons, the scene was most impressive. Mr. Feargus O'COnier, amidst almost breathless . silence, said : Sir, I rise to present a petition, signed by 5,760,000 persons, also another petition, signed by 100,000 persons, whose names are not append ed to this large muster. The petitioners pray for annual parliaments, universal suffrage, vote by bal lot, equal electoral districts, no property qualifica tion, and payment of members. I beg, Sir, to state, that from themourteay I have already received from the house, I shall say no more, than simply move that the petition be read by the clerk at the table. The petition was accordingly read by the clerk. Lord Morpheth rose amid much cheering and said —Sir, my 'right honorable friend, the Secretary of State for the Houle Department, would have been in his place had he not been greatly occupied by the necessary business of his department this morning. (Hear, hear.) I may, however, in his absence, state that whatever may be his opinion of the sentiments contained in that petition, he does not wish. that he should be considered by his absence, as wanting in that respect which a petition so numerously signed was unooubtedly entitled to. (Hear, bear ) The petition was then removed from the floor of the house by four of the messengers. The measure brought in by Sir' George Grey for assimilating the laws of Great Britain and Ireland as they respect overt acts of treas and sedition, wan carried, on the second reading, by 452 against 3.5, being a majority of 417. The measure is being pressed rapidly through Parliament, not, however, without great objections to that clause in the bill which constitutes felony, the "open and advised speaking, tending to levying war, and by force of constraint upon, to intimidate nu/.overawe the Par liament, or to stir up foreigners to invade the Uni ted Kingdom," which has been qualified by'a proviso. In consequence of the vast numbers of foreigners from the continent, wit) have recently appeared in the streets of London and Dublin,—it has been de termined by Government to revive the Alien Act, for a limited period, and in certain cases, in order to compel the departure oftheve obnoxious visitors from our shores; and, accordingly, the Marquis of Lans downe has intrudUced a bill to that effect in the House of Lords. It was distinctly stated by the Marquis of Lands downe, on 11th, that the Earl of Clarendon has ex pressed an opinion that sortie measure was necessary to.counteract the efforts made by foreign emissaries in 'lreland. IRELAND. During the wer k, the affai if of Ireland have hung in suspense, awaiting the issue of the legislative pro ceedings in the House of Commons, respecting the Crown and Government security Bill, and of Alr. John O'Connell's motion for the Repeal of the Union- The Repeal movement has reached a crisis which it must be confessed it has never hitherto attained. The preeentposture of affairs in that country is the moot complicated and perilous, and no lengthened period can elapse before the F:ng'islt Government and the'rcijority of the Dish people will have joined Irene on the subject of Repeal. nr ws from Ireland, to-flay, (April 15) is more unfavnrable fur the Government.

I e, ~._, _ - • " . .• . ,„ . , • Mrrlionurr Conrraxszcz.—•We were present dur ing the. aittings:of tbe.Creneral, Conferenco Of the MetbOdist Church,, yesterday. ...When we entered . - we found the members engaged In a warm discussion on, the subject of a Memorial which had been pre iented from the St. Limis Conference` (we believed Prom:what we could gather from the incidentSl re marks of the speakers, the difficulty grew out ofthe Slavery agitation, which hatr•already divided the Church—North and South. We did not understand the merits of the controversy, but could not help remarking the dignity with which the members con ducted theniselves. The Memorial was finally re ferred to the appropriate Committee. A committee was appointed to arrange the busi ness for the action of the Conference. The motion to appoint caused some discussion. A committee was appointed to report upon the expediency of revising the liymti Book:. A committee was appointed to be denominated the Finance Committee, whose duty should be to re port upon claims against the Church by super mutated preachers. It appeared from the remarks of some of the delegates from the Philadelphia Con :ference, that great injury had resulted to the Church on account of supposed inattention to the just claims of aged ministers. - • Bishop Redding rose to make a statement. He said that articles - had been published in a newspaper [in,western New York,] by a preacher, in which himself and Bishop James had been charged with bad conduct in their administration. The author of these articles was appointed a delegate to this. Con ference, but was prevented from attending on ac count of bad health. It was his desire that the sub ject should be referred to the Committee on the Episcopacy, that it might receive investigation. A motion was made and seconded, embodying the suggestion of Bishop Redding, which was car ried. The credentials of the Delegate from Canada were read, and he was called up and introduced to the Conference. After the transaction of some other unimportant business, the Conference adjmrned to meet this morning, at 8 o'clock. In the aflemoons the Com mittees will meet. • —The following Bishops are in ttendance: Waugh, Bedding, Hamline, Tattles, Morris. Bishop Waugh acts as President of the Conference. It is thought that the Slavery question may cause some angry rlttbate yet; though one to look at the countenances of the members, would not suppose that any indignity would ever be offered by any one of them. But such things have been. Holy men have quarrelled, and done much worse. We took quite a fancy to many of the Rev. gentlemen whom we noticed. That one in particular, who urged the appointment of seven on Committees, for the reason that it was a scriptural timber. A most profound thought ! There is something philosophical in that number, and great men have worked their brains hard to discover its analogies. There are the seven tones, the seven colors, the seven passions, &c. &c. Ton TIIDDIL— We were in Apollo Ball a few minutes, on Monday evening, just long enough to see this 'remarkable personage, who has created so much excitement in all parts of the world. He is a sprightly little fellow—appears very happy, and cracks' jokes with great fluency. The large Hall was filled to suffocation, which pleased the General very much. The ladies all appeared to be in love with him—such kissing we never saw before. Tom Thumb is no humbug we assure our readers. His diminutiveness is astonishing, while his face presents all the developments of a boy 'of sixteen. He is not gifted with much intellect of course—he speaks what is set down for him; but in a style that affords pleasure to his audience. .Maser HoserrAc. V , gorous efforts are now being made to collect the necessary funds for the Hospital Building. Committees have been appointed, whose duty it will be to call on each citizen, and solicit aid for the great work—for a great work indeed, is this Mercy Hospital. One thousand dollars, now, will enable the Bui'ding Committee to go on and have it finished, so that the numerous patients who now suffer for want of proper homes and treatment, may be provided ror. The building as it stands, is worth leas --worse than worthless. A littfa money—a few coppers from each good man in our community— would make it invaluable to the poor and afflicted. Will the collecting Committees fail in their pres ent efforts t We hope not. We are anxious that at the end of the present week, they will be ab!e to re. port great success. tar The first Soiree in Quincy Hall, Allegheny city, was indulged in on Monday evening, by a very genteel party of young ladies and gentlemen. The company was not large, owinglo the inclemency of the weather; but those who had the. good luck to reach the ifall4lind no cause to regret that they had attended. 'Jenkins' supper was relished with much zest, and he received the praise and applause of all present, fir his munificence and taste. The Hall looked well—it is, 'indeed, a splendid room ; and we hope.the Allegbenians will never dis grace it by improper assemblages within its walls. On Monday evening, it was decorated with.banners and flags, which added much to the - charins of the circle. White's Band did their best to fill the souls of all with enthusiasm. STABLE BURN/R0 CABE---Young Simmons, who has been for some days in prison, awaiting an inves tigation of a charge against him of having set fire to some of the stables which were recently burned, was yesterday brought before the Mayor for further hearing. After a full examination into all tho cumatances, he was bound over to take his trial. The testimony is mostly circumstantial, but enough was brought out to warrant his Honor in pursuing the course he did.
