Letter From Hen. EL Wagon;

Deer Sir: I regret to inform you that it wilt
not be in my power to Inapt your very kind
invitation to attend your State Convention at
Pittsburgh on the sth of September. Engage
ment" I cannot forego make It itoposable for
me to meet with you on that day:
I look with the most loans' lutenist to your
finite in this critical emergency. Pennsylvania
has It in her power to decide the conflict between
freedom and , slavery, against tne domination of
the blank power and its feeble tool—the present
administration. The opponents of the present
faith-breaking administration. In New England.
feel the moat liana nollatude concerning your
State. We believe that Penelylvado holds in
her hands the issue of 1855. If Pennsylianho
°outhouse to stand firmly with her . sister States
• of the North, the year 1866' will witness the
complete itairthroa of the black .power of the'
South and Insomnia power of the North. and
the ignominious defeat of Northern= 'axed with
Southern principles; or rather, Northern men
with no principles at all. We of New England
implore the .anti-Nebreska men of your great
State to take counsel together, to cultivate the
spirit of union, to strne by en honorable efforts
to combine men of all parties in united action,
by widen , alone you can decide the contest for
freedom. In this erals, the antl•Nebranke men
of your • fiats should forget their - dlimasiens,
sterrilleei 'yarning but honor. and routine their
