On motion o t Mr. John C. Dunn, William

resented. , , .
Col. Hawkins was admitted from Wilkins.
' Mr. M. I. Stewart was aimittcd from the
First Ward, Allegheny. , ,
Col. Gibson and Squire Gibson wcro admitted
from Pine township.
Mr. John C. Dunn moved that the Convention
go into nomination for delegates to tho State
Convention.
Col. 8. W. Blaok thought tho motion was pre
mature, and hoped the gentleman would with
draw it until a oommittee oould be appointed to
draft resolutions. '
The motion was then withdrawn, and tho fol
lowing committee appointed: Messrs. Col. S. W.
Black, John C. Dunn, R. B. Roberts, David Wil
liams, William L. Miller, John D. Miller, and
Henry M’Cullough. .
The Convention then went into an election for
delegates, with the following result:
Charles Barnett and John 11. Bailey, Pitts
burgh.
William L. Miller, Versailles.
D. R. Miller, Bowiokley.
L. B. Patterson, Mifflin.
John D. Miller, South Pittsburgh.
William A. Reed, Allegheny.
These nominations were almost unanimously
made, and, at the oonclasion, Col. Jas. Gibßoo
moved that Hon. W. W. Irwin address the Con
vention. .
The motion was responded to enthusiastically,
and Mr. Irwin came forward and spoke for some
time. He said he was taken somewhat by sur
prise, as he would have preferred to wait until
the resolutions were read, in order to have a
text to preach from. Ho, of course, had his own
views of the policy of the Democratic party;
they may differ from that of other gentlemen,
but he hoped tho resolutions would accord with
bis own sentiments, as he supposed they would
represent the views of a majority of tho mem
bers of this Convention. The Democratic party
should make up their mind to unite in a solid
phalanx, to stand by the Constitution, inviting
tho confidence of all honcßt men, without regard
to country or creed—or sectional or party pre
dilections. Tho Democratic party has a duty to
perform independent of political considerations,
that is to support tho Constitution. It has pro
claimed that this land shall be an asylum for the
oppressed of all other countries, and unlcsß
Democrats chooße to pronounce themselvcß hypo
crites and apostates, they are bound to stand to
It. The speaker then spoke in strong condem
natory terms of the Know Nothings, and adverted
severely upon the present Lesislature, censuring
them for the passage of the Prohibitory Liquor
Law which he pronounced unconstitutional and
at variance with treaties we had with foreign
countries. The speaker was often interrupted
with applause. .... ,
At the conclusion of Mr. Irwin s remarks, the
Committee on Resolutions returned and offered I
the following, whioh were unanimously adopted :
Budxxd, That this Convention, representing tho Demo,
cratio pert? of Allegheny county, doth unanimously tie

laos Cjiv GouiTßßOi&x, Coiisa».—We are
pleased to have on opportunity to again notice
the complete auocc&s of this institution. At the
meeting of the, faculty-yesterday the following
young gentlemen were declared graduated:
C. 0. Fetterman, W; A. Tomlinson, T. M.
Blair, J. W. Boyd, Henry Freyvogel and John
McCurdy. Previous to this!' however, John
Fleming, Esq., lecturer on the Soience of Ac-
counts, delivered the following appropriate ad
dress, in whioh is embodied some wholesome ad
vice:
My Young Friends: As you are now about
to graduate, and bid adien to this institution,
permit me to -congratulate you on the highly
satisfactory manner you have acquitted your
selves on £he bresent occasion. Your Professors
feel very nfuch gratified at tho rapid progross
you have made, and have now the satisfaction
of seeing that their laboreh are been duly ap
preciated.
You are now about to go out again into the
world—ono probably to his farm and another to
his merchandize. Buffer, then, a word of ex
hortation: “Honesty is tho best polioy.” In
all yonr dealings and transactions with yonr
fellow men, let your honesty appear to all. If
you havo stores of your own, keep your books
correctly; and thereby gain the confidence of
your customers. If you enter the counting
honso of others, as book-keepers, lot the know
ledge yon have here acquired be put in requisi
tion; keep your employers’ secrets as your own.
Let your condact bo such aB to show your em
ployers that his interest is your interest—make
yourselves useful in every way you oan—spend
your time, 1. 1. your leisure time, in reading good
books, and not in the tavern or at the gaming
table. Many of onr now wealthy merchants
were formerly shop-boys, clerks and shop keep
ers for othors; and, by their consistent fidelity,
walk and conversation, were taken into partner
ship, and in the end became possessed of the
whole establishment. I know several now in
this city, who, thirty years ago, were not worth
a dollar, and now are wholesale merchants.
These men were attentive to their employers’
best interests, and in a few years became so
useful that, rather than part with them, they
were taken in aa partners, and have become
wealthy. I also knew some others who had
equally good situations, but whenever they had
' an hour to spare were found in the hotel, thea
tre, or livery stable (hiring a horse and buggy,
perhaps with their employer’s money,) to drive
some young lady to East Liberty, Economy, or
some other place of recreation. And where are
some or these young men now? Some in an
early grave l—Borne stoggering, bloated and
drank about our streets ! —Borne in the far west,
tiiling the soil, where they should always have
been. But, my young friends, I hope better
things of yon, though I thus speak. We some
times bear it said of a man, as the highest com-
pliment which can bo paid to hia integrity, that
his word is as good as his bond; which means
that ho will keep Mb promise, simply because it
is his promise. Now, let mo urge upon you to
have at all times a high regard for the e&cred
ness of your promise—and why; because you
will thereby distinguish yourselves as honest,
honorable men, and gain the confidence of all
around yon.
Go out, then, into the world with a firm belief
that knowledgo is capital, and" by all means in
your power strivo to bccomo fully acquainted
with whatever concerns the business you cn
gage in.
In the discharge of your duties as merchants
or accountants, never forget for a moment that
tho most unswerving integrity is demanded of
you, not ODly by the common obligations of
morality, but by the truest considerations of
self interest. Do not make haste to get rich—
be not eager for rapid gains, but hasten slowly,
and therefore securely.
I am very proud, indeed, of the manner you
have acquitted yourselves on this occasion, and
am perfectly satisfied each and all of you will
have no difficulty in entering the counting bouße
and taking charge of a set of books. Wishing
you every prosperity in this life, and happiness
in the world to come, l bid yon an affectionate
farewell.

Tbe official weekly Bank averages to Saturday last,
April 14, exhibit, in the aggregate, a very slight decline in
all the departments, as compared with the previous »tate«
ment Tbe loss of Specie is only $77,079, and for the first
time since the present year set in, the line of Loans and
Discounts shows a small decrease. The changes since the

Loss of Specie 77,079 | Dec. of Debits 31,671
The loss of S • ecie is four hundred thousand dollars less
than was generally looked for, and the statement altogether
more favorable than the previous movement led the public
to anticipate. Including the Sub-Treasury statement to

hoppers patent plane
fpIlE undersigned is prepared to supply CARPENTERS,
I CABINET-MAKERS, and Workers in Wood generally,
wiib bis Patented and valuable PLANKS.
All who have tried it, pronounce l a most valuable in
vention, that must soon come into g nersl u®e. The fol
lowing letters from practinl workmen are but two among
many letters the Patentee has re;clved rewcrmend.ng this
Plane above all others in use ;
PinsncEOj 6t«am CAtukrr Factory, >
February 22, 18>55. f
We hereby certify, that during the last twelve months
wo have used Hopper's Pat nt Plano, and do not hesitate
to recommend It to Cabinet-Makers and Carp»nten» as su
perior to any other Plane In us-. We consider it peculiarly
adapted to planing oak, cherry, walnut, and all ports of
hard wood, and f>r planing veneers. it a far superior to
.he old mcd* of scraping, besides being a groat saving of
:ime. One man, by using this Plane, will plane xnoie
•rs than 6tc men can do by any other plane or method
IL H. Kras 4 Co.
To Meats P. Eaton, Esq :
Drar it/—I bare examined Hopper's Patent Bench
plane, anil bellwTe it to bo a most excellent article f»r the
übp for which it l? intended,as a combination of plane and
ecrarer.
It Is particularly adapted to planing Tf-neera, and it does
not rcquiiu one-fourth the time or labor of the old method;
and I hsTc un doubt, when its properties become generally
fccowu. bat that it will entirely npersede the former te
dices and laborious custom.
I most cheerfully recommend it to all persons engaged In
the Cabinet business, as from my knowledge cf it, there is
nothing as well fitted to glee a smooth and beautiful finish
to veneers os the Hopper Potent Bench Plane.

The right course f*r any one to pursue who may be af
flicted with Knpmre, is to procure a good Truss well adapted
to the ruptured nails, in order to retain the protruding

in a suffering bat dangerous condition. I'bare always on
hand, and doily adapt, the most improved Trusses; among
which is MARSH'S RADICAL CURE TRUSS, which will
really produce a radical enro in a short time. Of course
there ore cases when no Tros3 will cure, but in a vast ma
jority of reducable Hernia, or Ruptnro, this Truss will
