public affairs; and that tho President
has not only nrosumcd to oxcrciso this

mercy which his own nature might prompt
but has delegated it to many subordinates,
and they again to others in ovcr.y part of
the country, until its litilcoua presence is

rftEAMBLB
That wo approvo tho resolutions, upon
tho stato of tho country, passed by the
IIouso of Representatives of this Common
wealth on tho 13th day of April last, and
in addition thoroto, and as a further ex
prcssion of our views upon public affairs,
lo rceolvo, as follows:
Resolved, That we again roncw our
vows of fidelity to tuo Constitution ot tho
United States, the great charter for which
our fathers struggled anu lougnt, anu
which was cstablifhcd, as they themselves
expressed it, "to form, a more perfect Union
establish justice, ensure domestic tranquil
ty, provide for the common defenso, pro
moto tho general welfare, and socuro tho
blessings of liberty to oursolvos and pos
terity." Resolved, That inasmuch ns tho Consti
tution embodioa tho only guarantees we
havo for publio liberty and private right,
as without it we can have no hope of pro
tection from bloodshed, spoliation and an
arohy the man who sucors at "tho Con
stitution as it iB" proves himself to bo
we aro not surprised to loam that tho
worthiest men havo been torn from their
famile?, judges knocked down on tho bench,
tninsiters'of tho Gospel imprisoned in loath
somo dungeons and rospoetablo women
troatcd with a brutality whioh it would bo
indecent oven to namo and all this, in
mauy cases, without a protenso that tho
victims wero guilty oven of a political of
fense, much less of any crime against tho
laws.
Resolved, That free government cannot
exists without a frco press, and tho Consti
tution of this Stato, as well as that of tho
United States, has declared that it shall
ho free. Those persons thercforo in office
or out of office, who attompt to suppress
hooks and newspapers by violcnco aro tlio
enemies of this government and ought to
be themselves suppressed.
-Rcsolvc-l, That we hartily thank the
lionheartod Democracy of Ohio, for the
manly vindication they havo given to the
Constitution against tho groat crimo com
mitted upon it in tho arrest and deporation
of Clement L, Vallandigham ; and wc
assure them of our cordial sympathy in
the great struggle they aro making for
thesr undoubted rights.
Resolved, That tho plain duty of the
Chief Magistrato of this Commonwealth
requires him to uso whatever power tho
law has placed in his hands to protect tho
Stato and the peoplo from lawless outrages,
como from what quarter they may, and
no man is fit to be Governor of this Stato
who will consent to hold his own liberties
and let the people hold theirs at the mere
will ol the hedcral Executive.
Resolved: That the Democracy of Penn
sylvania has been ever true to tho causo
of the Union. It was in tho name, and
for the sako of tho Union, that our party
was made ; that we denounce tho least in
timation that tho Democratic party enter
tains now, or even has entertained, or
even can entertain, the slightest sympa
thy with the present gigaDtie rebellion, or
with traitors in arms against the govern
ment, or would ever consent to peace up
on any terms involving a dismemberment
ot the Union, as utterly unjust ; and in
proof of this, we point with cxaultation to
tho lavish contributions to tho rar in
blood and treasure heretofore and now
being made by the hundrods of thousands
of Democratic citizens, who wore among
the first to fly to tho rescue of tho Union
and peril their lives iu its defence
Resolved, That as the true friends of
tho Union, and feeling a profound anxiety
for its fate, wc claim, and will exercise,
the right to consider, discuss ascertain
and urgo in becoming' terms upon the peo
ple and the constituted authorities, what
ever measures will, in our judgment, be
most likely to please (and keep tho whole
nation and Union together undcroue fed
eral government.
Resohcd, That when this war began
ranted by the Constitution, and its tenden
cy is to subordinate civil to inilitay
authority, and to subvert our system of
frco government,
Seventh, That this General Assembly
doom it proper further to declare that it,
together with all, tho truly Joy nl people ol
tho State, would hail, with pleasure and de
light, any manifestation of a desire on tho
pait of the seceded States to return to their
allegiance to the Government of tho Union
and would in such event cordially and
earnestly co-operate witli them in tho res
toration of peace and tho procurement of
such proper guarantees as would givo se
curity to all their interests and rights.
Right, That tho soldiers composing our
armies merit tho warmest thanks' of tho
nation. Their country called, and nobly
did they respond. Living they shall know
a nation's gratitude,; wounded, a nation's
care ; and nionUhients shall be raised to
teach posterity to know tho patriots and
heroes who offered their lives at their
country's altar. Their widows and or
phans shall-bo adopted by tho nation, to
be. watched over and cared for as objects
truly worthy a nation's guardianship.
Jinth, Iliac psinisylvama will nciierc
to the Constitution and tho Union as the
bcH, it may bo tho last, hope of popular
trcouom ; and lor all wrongs which may
havo been committed, or evils which may
exist, will seek redress under the Ootisti
tution aud within the Union, by the peace
ful but powerful agency of the smTrago of
a Irce people,
Tenth, That this General Assembly
haih with pleasure and hope the manifes
tations of convcrsativc sentiment among the
peoplo of the Norhcrn Statej in their late
elections , and regards tho same as the earn
est of a good purpose upon their part to
co-operate with all othor loyal citizens iu
giving security to the rights of every sec
tion, 'and maintaining the Union and the
Constitution as they were ordained by the
founders of the Republic.
Eleventh, That in tho judgment ofthis
General -Assembly, whenever it becomes
practicable to obtain a convention of all or
of three fourths of the States, such body
should be convened for the purpose of pro
posing such amendments to the Federal
Constitution a3 oxpenonco has proved to
bo necessary to maintain that instrument
iu tho spirit and meaning intended hy its
founders, and to provide against future
convulsions and, wars.
TwelfUi, That while this General As
sembly condemns and denounces tho faults
ol tho Administration and tho encroach
mcnts of the abolitionists, it docs, also most
thoroughly condemn and denounco the
heresy of t-csession as uuwai ranted hy the
Constitution, and destructive alike of the
security and perpetuity of Government and
of the peace and liberty of tho peoplo; and
it docs hereby most colomnly declare that
tho people of this Stato are unalterably op
posed to any division of tho Union, and
will prcsistontly exert their whole influ

the supremacy oftho Constitution and to
preserve the Union, with all tho dignity,!

changed its ground, avowing and pro

Tho wholo of General Ewell's forces

The news from up the Cumberland valley
s!.iows that the Rebels arc rapidly advanc

to venture so far from their haso of opera

So far no opposition has been made to
their movement. Tho Rebels at tho latest

Thero is no longer any doubt that Gen,

Valley is morely for forage and supplies,
nnd ho is believed to have no purposo or
thought of penetrating as far as Ilarris
burg. Tlio risk ot such a movement
would bo too great to vonturo upon, and
its results, even if successful, would not
advanco tho Rebel causo. Besides, such
a movement wouid enable Hooker to get
