    Democratic State Convention.
Ilinnranuno, March 4
The Democratic State Convention met
in the hall of the 1-louse of Representative
at eleven o'clock ; an immense concours
of spectators were in attendance, the Buchan
an men looking provokingly confident, the
Kass men dogged and determined.
Judge Wm. S. Ross, of Luzerne, was
elected temporary Chairman, and the Con
vention proceeded to consider the contested
seats of aelegates in numerical order. The
Erie and Crawford district case being the
first in order, on a motion that the contest
ants bo permitted to state their claims, a
great variety of amendments were proposed
hnd much 'discussion prevailed, and the
chair evidently became bothered. The mo
tion to hear both sides finally prevailed, lirn
•iting the speakers to twenty minutes Mr.
Lowrie advocated his claims, and Mr. Mc-
Arther replied. Much discussion followed,
and-h umerous—motions—were—made-;-much
excitement prevailed ; an angry altercation
ensued between Mr. Lowrie, Judge Gillis
hnd othess, during which there was much
iliserder F -hissingrstamping-and-ripplauding; --
After the passage of a resolution in reference
io the permanent organization of the Con
vention, a motion for adjournment prevail
ed, to meet at three o'clock this afternoon.
AFTERNOON SESSION.—The Convention
assembled at 3 o'clock. The crowd increas
ing, and the steam getting up. The con
sideration of contested scats was continued
and concluded.
The Chairman of the Committee on Or
ganization reported the Hon. William Hop
kins, of Washington county, as President of
the Convention, and a large number of Vice
Presidents and Secretaries.
The President, upon taking the Chair,
made an elequent address.
Air. Elist, from Philadelphia, presented a
resolution to the effect, that this Corivention
proceed to vote viva voce for a candidate to
be presented to the National Convention for
President, and that the one receiving a ma
jority of the votes of this Convention shall
be the choice of Pennsylvania.
The roll being called, resulted . as follows
—James Buchanan received 97Notes ; Lew
is Cass, 31 votes ; Samuel Houston, 2 ; and
Robert J. Walker, 2.
It was then moved that the Convention
unanimously concur in the nomination of
James Buchanan. The yeas and. mays be
gin called, were, 102 yeas, 30 !nays. This
vote created considerable sensation.
A resolution was offered, authorizing the
President of the Convention to appoint a
committee of one for each congressional dis
trict, to report to the Convention, subject,to
its approbation, the na n nes of Delegates to
represent this State in the National Conven
tion ; and that no one should hr nominated
who is not known to be the firm friend of
Mr. Buchanan, and •having no other pre
ference; which was amended by Mr. Scott,
Of Huntingdon, to the effitct that the Dele
gates from the several' congressional dis
tricts be rerpiested to report to this Conven
tion the name of one person from each dis
trict, as a delegate to the Baltimore Conven
tion, to nominate candidates fur President
find Vice-President. A very exciting, and
animated debate upon this question ensued,
pending with the Convention adjuurned to
meet at 7.1 o'clock this evening.
EVENINO SES:qON.—The Convention met
at 71 o'clock.
The discussion on the resolution and
amendment, in refference to the appointment
Of Delegates to the Baltimore Convention,
was resumed and continued. Many warm
speeches wore made on both sides, after
which, the amendments were all voted down
by most decisive votes, and the original re
solution adopted by a vote sf 91 to 11. The
chair declined to vote.
• Mr. Scott, of Huntingdon, on behalf of
himself and others, presented a paper, sign
ed by twenty-four delegates, protesting, in
the mOstemphatic and decided terms against
the action of the majority, and expressing,
a determination to decline participating any
further in the selection of delegates to the
National Convention. The paper is quite
lengthy, and the language exceedingly
strong. Here follows the objections :
Tho Protest of the Cass Ned.
We solemnly protest against the resolu
tion just adopted, as a wanton disfranchis
mont of the Congressional Districts, which
we in whole or in part represent. We de
nounce it as a flagrant usurpation of power
—as a desperate alternative resorted to by
a tyrannical majority, to manacle and silence
a large minority in this Convention upon a
vital question.—it is a trampling under foot
el an usage sanctioned by the action of the
Democratic party in its Convention for the
last 17 years,—it is not only a violation of
usage but it is a sacrifice for a tempoary pur
pose, of a cardinal Democratic principle.—
While the democracy of other States are
bringing the election of Delegates nearer to.
the people Pennsylvania by this action of
the majority of her Convention, removes it
hither front them, and displays a humilia
ating distrust of the popular will.
The whole proceeding is an usurpation
Of our rights, and the rights of , the people
1;:rhom we represent—directly branding them
nhd us as unfit to choose the electors and
delegates ‘ to represent, them in the National
Convention. It is justifiable by no exigen
-o—it can be justified by none ; it is preg
with'the seeds of discord and dissatis
friction in the ranks of the Democratic par
ty of Pennsylvania'.
We protest against the right of the ma
jority of this Convention to deprive the con
gressional districts of their suffrage in the
election of delegates and electors. We ut
terly repudiate the act by which it has been
done.
•We came here clothed by our constituents
by virtue of the power inherent in them,
and by virtue of the time-honered usage of
the party, with the right to select electors
dnd delegates, subject to the approval of
this Convention, to represent them in 'the
National Convention, and of. that right we
recognize no power but that of our Demo
cratic constituency as strong, enough to di
itest us.
The violation of that right is a violation or
apart of the vitality of our organization,
and we refuse submission to the resolution.
We decline all further participation in
the selection of District Delegates. We
assert.the right of the delegates from the
several districts, and the right of our Consti
tuents themselves to disregard the selection
of delegates and electors made by an out,
rage upon party law, and to select them in
accordance with established usage,
We therefore protest against this act as
unjust, unnecessary and in disregard of ven
erated usage_ as it is with every princi
ple
of democracy—as an act of disorganize
lion, fraught with anarchy and dismember
ment of the democratic party—and we ask
that this our earnest protest against it, be
entered upon the journal of the convention's
proceedings.
We look upon and pronounce lie ap
pointment of an irresponsible Committee,
clothed wi , h power to scrutinize and stab in
the lurk our 'fellow citizens, without giving
in public any reason for it ris an act which
should brinZ , with it the blush of shame to
the check of every man w_ho_claiins_to_be_a_
Democrat—and the Committee itself we
consider as nothing less than a secret tribu=
nal invested with inquisitorial power.
The above protest was signed by all the
Cass men of the Convention, 31 in number.
Hirst moved to refer it to a commit
tee of five members. The motion was vio
lently opposed by the Cass delegates, who
denounced it as an attempt to strifle the pro
test.
Nlr. Hirst defended his motion and it fi
nally prevailed, and the President announc
ed Nlr. Hirst ns Chairman of- the Commit
tee, consisting of five members.
A committee, consisting of five members,
Mr. tines, Chairman, was appointed to
prepare resolutions, to be submitted to the
action of the Convention.
The Convention then adjourned, to meet
at I 11 * o'clock, to-morrow morning.
The Convention will, in all probability,
terminate its labors by to-morrow afternoon.
The Cass mii, in and out of the Conven
tion,-loudly-condemn the course pursued-by
the Buchanan men, who appear, however,
to take things very quietly.

The report of the Committee was adopt
ed by the Convention—yeas 97, nays 3,
Mr. Eines, from the committee appoint
ed to prepare resolutions expressive of the
sense of the Convention, made the following
report :
Resolved—That this Convention cordi
ally approve and endorse; the great demo
cratic political principles embodied in the
resolutions adopted by the last two National
Democratic Conventions, held at Baltimora
in 184.1 and 1818, and believe their strict
observance to be not only conducive to the
prosperity, but essential to the preserva
tion of the Union.
Resolved—That the democratic party in
view of the present critical condition of the
country, shall now, more than ever, resort
to the principles of its glorious founders, as
furnishing the safest and surest guides and
landmarks ; and that among those of prima
ry importance in the existing position of
public affairs, wo may enumerate a strict
construction of the poivers granted by the
several States to the Federal Government
under the constitution of . the United States,
and n denial to Congress of all doubtful
powers ; a sacred regard for the rights re
served to the States respectively, and to the
people ; an absolute non-interference by
the several States and their citizens with
the domestic institutions of each other; and
a rigid economy and strict accountability in
the expenditures of the public money drawn
from the pockets of the people by taxation,
confining the appropriations made by Con
gress to national objects plainly,. authorized
by. the Constitution.
Regolved—That the corner stones of the
Democratic party were securely and deep
ly laid during the . reign of terror, by the
immortal patriots and statesmen, Jefferson
and Madison, in the Virginia and Kentucky
resolutions, and in Mr. Madison's report ;
and that whenever the government departed
from the spirit of these resolutions and this
report, dangerous dissensions and injurious
consequences to the country were the re
sult.
Resolved—That the Democratic party is
the true Union party of the whole country,
and we recognize no other. We rejoice to
witness thai the Democrats in other. States.
who disapprove the compromise measures
of the last Congress, have, for the sake of
the Union, resolved to acquiesce in them as
a final settlement of the vexed and danger
ous questions arising out of domestic slave
ry ; and the Democratic party throughout
all the States, are now reuniting in solid
4thalanx_up.on_the_principle_that_these_mea—
sures must and shall be maintained and ex
ecuted, and with the firm determination that
the party shall be restorkl to its former as
_cendency_a nd4ower—i n-the_ad m in ist ra don
of the Federal Government.
Resolved—That the Democracy of Penn.
sylvania will maintain with fidelity and en
ergy the faithful execution of the fugitive
slave law ; and that we pledge ourselves to
exert our best efforts to secure the speedy
repeal of such portions of the ' , State obstruc
tion law" as deny the use of our jails for the
detention of fugitives from labor while •
awaiting their trial, or in any other manner
interfere with the constitutional rights of ,
citizens of our sister states in reclaiming
their property.
Resolved—That the Democracy of the
old Keystone Commonwealth having defer
red their claims to a Presidential candidate
' to the appeal of her sister States for more
titan 11 , If a century, do now, by an unpre
cedented majority, earnestly and energeui
catty assert their strong hold and long defer
! red right to the honor of furnishing a Presi
dent for the Union, in the person of their
I fellow-citizen, James Buchanan. They
- have-no-second—choice;-and they firmly
believe that, should he be nominated by the
Democratic National Convention, he will
receive a triumphant, old-fashioned Jackson
majority.in the Keystone State.
Resolved—That we present James Bud].
anan as our candidate for the Presidency,
with the full confidence that the Deinocrit
cy of our sister States will secede to the
Keystone State the honor of which she has
so long been entitled; and which she has so
long generously yielded. That the lame of
our candidate as a sound statesman and zeal
ous
advocate of republican principles is not
surpassed. He is a consistent and uncom- ;
promising democrat, an able defender of the
Jefl::rsonian doctrine of State rights, a foe
to the unconstitutional doctrine of centrali- !
zation—the advocate to universal suffrage--'
the early, tried and confidental friend and !
adviser of the immortal Jackson—the lead
ing and successful opponent of dangerous
national monied monopolies—the supporter
of the economical administration of govern.
ment—the friend and promoter of agricul-;
tore and commerce, of domestic manufac
tures and mechanics. The services of Mr. j
Buchanan in the cause'of the party and of ;
the country, are recorded in the hearts of
the people, and we believe that, with the ex
ecutive branch of the Government in his
hands, equal justice would be awarded to
all the great interests of the country, and
our beloved Union be safe against the in- I
roads of foreign aggression, and the dattg,ers !
of intestine commotion.
liesolved—That the delegates elected by
this Convention be, and they are hereby
instructed to vote for him from first to last
and to use. all ftir and honorable means to
secure his nomination.
llesolved—That we congratulate our fel
low citizens upon the successful termination
of the late Guber natorial contest ; the elec
tion of his Excellency, William Bigler, as
the Chief Magistrate of the Commonwealth,
has secured to the people an able. enlight
ened, honest and economical administration
of the government, and redeems our glori
ous old Commonwealth from the disgrace
which has been brought upon her by the
late reckless and extravigant administration;
that for the personal and untiring exertions
of Gov. Bigler to secure the ascendency of
Democratic principles during the late can
vass—for his eloquent and statesman-like
discussion before the people, of the national
'issues, which made the late contest memo
rable and critical for the country, and which
conduced to the glorious result, the Demo
cracy of Pennsylvania and of the United
States owe him a debt of gratitude equally
difficult to be established . or discharged.
Resolved—That all vacancies that may
exist in the delegation at Baltimore, now se
lected, shall be filled by a majority of the
whole number there present, and that the
said delegation shall have full power and
authority among themselves to regulate by
whom and how their votes shall be given
in the Convention.
Resolved,—That the President and two
first Vice Presidents do nominate and ap
point a State Central Committee, consisting
of thirteen, and that they may announce the
appointments before or after the adjourn
ment of the Convention.
The resolutions were adopted without a
division, and the Convention adjourned to
meet at 3.1 o'clock in the afternoon.
