Democratic County Convention. At a meeting of the Democratic County Com mittee, held at the Morgan House, February 6, 1861, in pursuance of a call of the Chairman, it was Reiolved, That the Chairman of the County Committee be authorized to call a County Con vention, to assemble at Harrisburg on the 18th inst., for the purpose of selecting six additional delegates to act in conjunction with those elected by the late Democratic County Conven tion, to represent Dauphin county in the Demo cratic Siate Coniention called to meet at Har rislnig on the 21st inst. In pursuance of the above resolution, I here by notify the Democratic citizens. of Dauphin eowitY to meet in their respectiye wards and to*isbips on the, 16th init., at the usual time, and place, and select delegates to the County. Convention, to be held at Harrisburg on the; 18th inst. W. D. Does, - Chair:n(4n; Wit; D. P.ABITEST, Se 4. 31r Lmcoia made a speech at Indianapolis of SR usite4ingly wisty,ancl non=committal.

Helping Secession. After all the talk about "enforcing the laws' , in the seceding States, we find the Republicans in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives voting solidly for a resolution requesting our members of Congress to favor the abolition of all postal services in those States. That is, they would have the Federal Government collect the revenue, and insist upon the seceding States performing all their duties to the Government, while the Government abstains from performing its dories to lise States. Now the Federal Gov ernment is just as lunch - bound to enforce the Postal laws as to collect the , revenue.- if 4.. suspends the operation of lawn turpolicial to tho States, it has an equal right s to suspend : laws imposing burdens upon them. The principle is the same in both cases. The effect may be different. Let the Government in a spirit of hostility undertake to deprive the seceding States of postal facilities and, at the same time, rigidly exact the revenue, and it will furnish those States with a substantial reason to help on the revolution. Are not the Southern States going out of the Union fast enough that this Republicsan Legislature must adoptmeasures to drive : them out ? The Demeeratte•Convention. From all sections of the State we hear of preparations making by the counties to send delegates to the State Convention, which meets in Harrisburg on the 21st inst., indicating that the Democratic party is still alive, and that it has not been, crushed or annihilated by thpde feat of November last. In feet, -no politieal prganisation- was ever possessed of so much inherent vitality as the Democratic party. Defeats that would sweep other parties out of existence only seem to strengthen it. ..It It is a perpetual illustration of the trite quotation about "Truth, crushed to earth." There is no such thing as keeping it under. It is nearly as powerful in defeat as in victory. Its influence upon the destiny of the country cannot be destroyed by its ene mies. It is the strong support to which the people are finally , obliged to look in times of imminent :peril, such as that which now darkens the futUre of the 'Union.. The true value of the Democratic party is illustrated by the fact that its temporary defeat is almost invariably followed by troubles and disasters to the - country. - 'The. success of the Democracy at the-Presidential , election would have averted the'secession of the Southern litateS,'lniiihe consequent dissolution of the 11td0z!...1.4 the.dithoulties :that have followed the election of. LnteoLit by a sectional party upon'a sectional platform were foreseen as the inevitaile results of the'sectional aubactlitY, bY mean s „of _which the Southern States were praetiaaily severed from the North by the Re puidif.4n iirkt; o . d . the people were warned of tie: titl i ;e4nsequences of ignoring the Nati:oM A . 4 4 ea . f priteli .had hitherto bound the Statetttogether, , But misled by demagogues, who asigived4itenithat there was not the most remote ;hinter Of the dissolution of the Union, they were betrayed into . theenpport . of Lincoln _and no when it is. too /Ate to ,retrace this fatal step, and,vrhen the Union is:crumbling to pleees, the very party that-oried "ne danger r obstliatatelyreftutee to repair tip damages they have done, and inselently ,detnandi •that the people they deceived shall stand fat tO the 116 9 6311 .0 'octrines which haVe t ieriod'eo much" evil =A inflated so 11;tuch injury. : ' .I. .: t ill :Ain: emergency), when the iliepnblican party sidles. totnplatently at the ditieiters it: has wicsikhi, aril rif!isis to stretch forth a , - hand 'for the . i mily . atien . of. the_ country -froin deeper_ ruin, thez-peOpleilegin to understand thattheDemoeratic partY4as right, and to look to itii'suCoor inirapioiiritglinent. Hence 48 strength in the midst of a defeat, which has served to demonstrate the truth and justice of its doctrines, and the falsity and injustice of the doctrines of its opponents. While defeat has strengthened the Democracy, victory has ruined the Republicans. It has shown the immediate results of the false prin ciples upon which - Republicanism was based, and the ulter - litdiffereace of its leaders to the good_cf- - ihe country. At this time, when events ji‘ti amply vindicated the position of the Dem ocratic party, it is proper that it should assem ble in convention, and adopt such measures as are best calculated to stay the progress of -se cession, and Itorestore the linion upon scours . • : foundations. • Mandan Begtieg Breed. A resolution was introdUced into the Senate on Monday last, which proposed to aprropriate . $BO,OO l O out _of the State Treasury for the relief of iher"Kansas sufferers. Of all the_igt-, upon thethis is about the moat impudent: The KePublietin party "ca v+entlid immense mod Of 'mime, sendin g emigrants into Kansas, armed and'equipped to "fight for freedom;" but now that these same nettlers are in a starving' and wretched condi tion, the Emigrant Aid Societies have no money to purchase food and clothing fez , 'them, and modedtly ask the Stated to °mile to their assist ance. • The same elass.of men who,subsaribed so liberally to the fund for the purchase of Sharp's rifles, and made the country ring with their shrieks for freedom, now cruelly abandon their deluded victims to the danger of death from starvation. Thaddeus Hyatt has appealed to the Bostonians for help, in vain, The fountain of their sympathy is dried up, since Kansas has secured the blessings , of freedom— without bread. No better evidence could be furnished of the utter heartlesness of the •whole tribe of abolition agitat0r5........ . - But they have no right to , ask the State to repair the damage they have done. The con dition of the peciple of Kansas may appeal to private charity. The money in the State Treasury is not a fund to be dispensed in, charity. - If it.is,.charity begins at home, and we have multitudes of poor in our own State fully as deaditiate and infinitely mote de l derving of aid from the State than, the Kansas suffer- MI Then if'the state r should• undertake to ap propriate money' for liansas„who. would dis bursa it ?

A REMAIMA.DLE Invorrio2t-A - Neto Paddle- Whe . el-41wirtant Improvement in Steam Ifiraviga tion.—Mr.:R..,Densmore,;of this Stete, says:the Neer.Fork; ening Post, has recentlrinVented new paddLe•wheel , which , is caloulatedtofob vieteall:thndilfieulties experienced in the use of -the . idd style. A pair of these wheels were recently placed upon the steamer Anne, of Van Santvorl 81. C_0. 1 4 SwAskio pipt - ci w f jsome, tahlnkilidgmlosl - vtherain-. terested in the improvement, were invited oh board for a trial trip s tn.day, The Anne left her wharf at. the Not nrßubinson street at ten . . A: hi., and proceeded up the East River nearly to Fort Schuyler, returning to her wharf at one o'clock. The experiment was entirely suceessfill, demonstrating fully the advantages of the new invention over , the oldpaddle-wheel. With the.ordinary Wheel the.. Anne has never been able to make more than nine miles an hour; but with 14 - r. Densmbre's patenfehaVai made sixteen, with lead - than a; full head , of steam. Apart from the increased spied, a great advantage is attained in the motion of the boat, which is quieter, with less 'strain upon the machinery than formerly. With the old wheel the water was thrown proftiSely Upon the guards, rendering it impossible for one to stand in the vicinity with comfort. • The new wheel entirely obviates this idiffieulty.• The boat glides - through the Water with an almost imperceptable motion the only vibration notice able resulting wholly from the motion of the engine. - • The peculiarity of the new • invention' con sists in the fact that the 1 ocket Of the wheel touches the water in a vertical instead •of a horizontal position. The resistance in the first ,instance is materally lessened, and afterward is increased by its hold on the water. The wheel is made in the ordinary way, except lie buckets. Instead of the buckets being placed against the arms in the'usual biannet,' they are' setoff from the, arms by means of a .series of brackets attached le 'the arms,"pia -a •• correil Tending series of brackets attached 'to the side of 'the buckets, and these; brackete - connected.
