restesklio, of Posasyliesits t moved
'to Mks eat that „portion Which proposed
to give authority to any person to give
more than one vote. -
After a few words from Mr. G. W. Pat
terson, of New York, cm a point of order—
Mr. T. B. King, of Georgia, called the ,
attention of the convention to the fact that
the Dalegate from Arkansas was author-
ised to cam the vote of his State by the
convention which appointed him, if, there
fore, tills resolution were rejected, the
voice of the Whigs of Arkansas would not'
be heard here. He presumed it was not
intended to deprive the Whigs of any por-
Sion of the Union of their representation
Aphere ; lie agreed with the gentleman from
Alabama (Mr. Hilliard) that where the
opinion of the Whigs of any State was
clearly made known, it was the best poli
ly to receive it. He expressed the hope
that the amendment would not prevail.
Mr. Newton, of Arkansas. expressed
similar sentiments.
Mr. Franklin said if the gentleman
from ()corgis had reflected on his motion
he would have seen that the State or Ar.
kansas would not be affected. If a Con
vention of that State had authorised the
delegate present to fill the vacancies. he
hsd no objection. He was for the largest
liberty, and would not even require a resi
dence in Arkansas, for those who might
be selected to fill those vacancies. His
only object was to exclude any one man
from gkving two or more votes on this door.
To this he objected; and not to filling va
cancies.
A Delegate , reminded the gentleman
from Pennsylvania, that the gentleman
from Arkansas was not authorized by hii
State Convention to. All vacancies, 'but
simply to give the vote of his State.
Mr. Franklin believed the one included
the other.
Mr. Newton explained that three dele
gates were appointed for the State of Ar-.
kansas, and one, in the absence , of the
others, was authorized to give the entire I
vote. He hoped nothing would be done
here to prevent that hitherto Locofoco
State having a voice in this. Convention;
for he assured the members' they had the
greatest hopes of carrying that State for
the Whig nominee at the next election.
• The discussion was von tinned by Messrs:
King, Franklin, Sage, Fuller, and Brown;
when—
Mr. Haskell said this discussion was
well calculated to produce dissension. It
wu obvious that the adherents of a par
ticular favorite were endeavoring to gain
an advantage over the friends of others.--
(e Order, order.") He concluded by mov
%elm previous question.
The motion for the previous question '
was sustained, and the amendment was
*wed. The vote on the main question
....the adoption of the resolution—was ta
ken by the yeas and nays, and it was re.
jeated by a majority of 156 to 196.
The question then recurred on the se
eon& reeelutlen; in relation - to - the delega
tion from Louisiana; which, after some
explanations and debate, was adopted.
This - nitirqiieition was the resolution
i to silo
smart, .cast. the vote of his district. On
this resolution a long dismission ensued,
and it we; eventually laid on the table.
The' lizorth resolution then iamb up, and,
ft was amended so as to pro.
vide that whirs a State had more dele
gates than it was entitled to votes, the del
*phis shoold name those who were to
vote, and the remaining delegates should
have mete on the floor; and in this shape
it was agreed tts.

by the delegation from Louisiana in refer

said, knowing Gen. Taylor as he had long
done, and knowing that his position had
been misunderstood and misconceived. lie
called the attention of the Convention to
the statement which he proposed to read.
The document went to show that Gen.
Taylor had taken no part in bringing his
name before the American people. His
friends throughout the Union bad placed
prominently before the country to occupy
the high ogee that was oace held by the
Father of his Country. pen. Taylor 0011;

RATIFICATION MEETING.
Last night the Ratification Meeting, which
took place in Independence Square, Phils
delphia. presented a tremendous gathering
of people, from all parts ofisthe
Governor Morehead, of North Carolina.
General Irvin and Wm. F. Johnston , of
Pennsylvania, and . Mr. F '
owler of New
Yor k , presided at the principal stands.—
The whole square was brilliantly illumi
nated fry Bengola lights and lamps hang
ing from the trees. There was much an
imated and eloquent speaking, exciting in
the crowd the utmost enthusiasm, and giv
ing promise of the restoration of harmony
in the Whig ranks; and, consequently, of
that.aataeess of theit: nciminies at the Na
tio* Election which is to take place in
Not nest.
The following Resolutions were read by Wa.
8. Price, Esq., of Philadeiphis, from the main
stand, and unanimously adopted :
I. Resolved, 'fhat the Whigs of the U.
States, here assembled by their represen
tatives. heartily ratify the neminatios of
Gen. TAYLOR as President, and Muo
LARD FILLMORE,- as Viee President
of the U. States, and pledge dietneelvell
to their support.
2 Resolved, That, in the choice of Gen.
Tavioa as the Whig candidate for Presi•
dens. we are glad to discover sympathy
with a great popularsentiment throughout
the nation—a sentiment which, having its
origin in admiratimof great military sue
eem, has been atiWithentid by the devel
opensent, in every aetion and every word,
around conservative opinions and of true
fidelity to the great examples of termer
days, and to the principles of the Consti
tution as administered by its founders. •
3. Resolved, That Gen. TAYLOR, in
saying that, bad he voted in 1844, he
Would have voted the Whig ticket, gives
us the assurance (and no better is needed
from a consistent and truthrmeaking man)
that his heart was with us at the crisis of
political destiny, when Ilsreav CLAY was
our candidate, and When not only Whig
principles were well defined and clearly
asserted. but Whig measures depended on
success. The heart that was with us then
is with us now, and we have a soldier's
word of honor and a life of public and pri
vate virtue as the security.
4. Resolved, That we look to Gen.
Taylor's administration of the Govern
ment as one conducive to Peace, Prosper
ity, and Union. Of Peace—because no
one better knows, or has greater reason to
deplore what he has seen sadly on the field
of victory, horror, of war, and especially
of a foreign and aggressive war. Of Pros
perity—now more than ever needed to re
lieve the nation from a burden of debt and
to restore industry—agricultural, manufac
turing and commercial—to its accustomed
and peaceful functions and influences. Of
Union—because we have a candidate whose
very position as a South-western man,
reared on the banks of that great stream
whose tributaries, natural and artificial, em
brace the whole Union, makes the protec
tion of the interests of the whole country
his first trust, and whose varied duties in
past life have been rendered. not on the
soil or under the flag of any State or any
section, but over the whole frontier and
tinder the broad banner of the nation.
5. Resolved, That, standing as the Whig
party does on the broad and firm platform
of the constitution, braced tip by all its in
violable and sacred guaranties and com
promises, and cherished in the affections;
because protective of the interests of the
people, we are proud to have, as the expo
nent of our opinions, one who is pledged
to construe it by the wise and generous
rules which Washington applied toil, and
who has said (and no Whig desires any
other assurance) that lie will make Wash
ington's administration the model of his
own.
9. Resolved, That, as Whigs and Amer
icans we are proud to acknowledge our
gratitude for the great military services,
which, beginnig at Palo Alto and ending at
Buena Vista, first awaked the American
people to a just estimate of low who is THE WHIG NOMINEES.—In obedience to

ANOTHER PRESIDENTIAL CANDI
DATE.—The New York 'Tribune saya—"Ws
have • report that the Hon. MA an" x Vox Bo aan
hu consented to accept a nomination for Friuli
dent at the hands of the Free Soil Democracy.—
If he does, he will probably poll a large vote in
several of the Free States.
ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS.—The
House of Representatives adopted a resolution on
Monday to adjourn on the 17th of July next, and
it is to be hoped that the Senate will concur there
in. Congress will then hare been in session U 8
days.
DEATH OF PROF. CALDWELL —We
are pained to record the death of Professor Mee
■tr CAcnwn.c, of Dickinson College. He was
an estimable man, of great worth and talent, and
his death will be deeply deplored by the public,
and by a tarp circle of fnends, to whom his many
virtues hand endeared him. He died in Portland,
Maine, on the fith inst., in the 4 . 2 d year of his age
A ' We observe by the Army Orders, that the
Vol igeur Regiment, to which the young men from
this pl.nce are attached, is to be discharged at Fort
Nl'llenry, Baltimore. They will probably arrive
about the first of July.

GEN. TAYLOR AND FREE TERRITORY.
—The Dolton Atlas contains the following very
important announcement
"Col. Johnson. of Upper Piqua. Ohio, who was
selected by the Whigs of Miami, as their delegate
to the Convention—a staunch, undoubted Whig
—who has. in a long life devoted to the cause,
done it great service—it delegate to Harrisburg
in 1839. and to Baltimore in 1844, and who has
known General Taylor long and intimately, writes,
in a letter before us, that be is all we could desire
upon this very point. He writes that he has
heard him declare, with much force. that he I
regarded 'laver, as • great evil to the country,
and expressed a strong hope that the time might
arrive when we could get rid of it altogether ; and
Col. Johnson declares his firmest conviction that
Gen. Taylor "is the last man to cososienaisee its
its being es ended to any mew territory that stay be
bronlit into the Union."
GEN. scorr ENDORSES TAYLOR.—
I A correspondent of the National Intelligerioer
mates that Gen. Taylor was vouched for by Gen.
Scott to be "an honest man and a good Whig'
anterior to the accounts being received at Wash
ington of the battles of Palo Alto and Resin de
la Palma, as appears by a communication pub
lished in the National Intelligencer, June 37,
1846. lit was suggested by a friend to General
Scott that, were he to achieve a brilliant victory in
Mexico, General Taylor would be elected Presi
dent. "Suppose be is," was the magnanimous
reply, "we shall have for President an honest
man and a good Whig."
gar The New York Evening Post hits General
'Osss and the Old Hunkers and President Pout
some hard slaps over the shoulders of Gen. Taylor,
after the following Guellion
"We now look upon the Presidential question
as virtually settled; General Taylor will be in
the Presidential Chair on the 4th of March, if he
is alive. He will sweep the South from Caps
May to Key West, and from the Ohio to the Rio
Grande. Virginia will give her voice for Taylor
as surely as South Carolina. Not one of the
States, to purchase whose support the letter of Mr.
Cass on slavery was written, will, in ill probabili.

Presidency.

Gen. C. remarked, that he bad no difficulty or

THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH, as it car
ried through the country the names of Taylor and
Fillmore, seemed to thrill every heart, and from
every quarter we hear the response swelling louder
and louder.
WHIG RATIFICATION kIEETING.—A
very large meeting of Whip was held at Philadel
phia on Monday evening lathe Chinese Museum,
to respond to the nomination of the Philadelphia
Convention. The assemblage wises large as any
ever seen at the same place. Great enthusiasm
was manifested. The Hon John Swift was called
to the chair, and in taking his seat addressed the
meeting in a short hut. spicikeitiniug—sdaress.--
The assemblage was atterwanla addressed by Ex-
Governor James C. Jones, of Tennessee, lion.
James Cooper, of Pennsylvania, and others. Ap
propriate resolutions pledging the Whig faith to
wanl the support of General Taylor were unani
mously passed.
OLD GUARD.—The Lancaster Tri
bune saysl—'•Yesterday being Whitsuntide Mon
day, brought a •aat concourse of people to our
city. A free intercourse with them enables us to
assure our friends abroad that the nominations of
Taylor and Ftllmore are entirely acceptable to
the Whigs of Lancaster county, and that they are
prepared to give them a must poNjeJ and enthu
siastic support."
NO GREAT OBJECTION WITH Es.—
A Southern Locofoco paper, after abusing Gen.
Taylor without measure or scow, winds up with
the charge that "he is fully coinmitted to the doc
trine that the institution of slavery shall be exclud
ed from any new territory to be acquired" The
editor says it is idle for the South to think of sup
porting ,Gen. Taylor without a po.itive retraction
of his endorsement of this part of the Signal lott.•r,
and an unqualified pledge to veto the Wilmot Pro
vise, or any kindred measure which may in the
event of his election be presented to him for signa
ture
MILLARD FILLMORE.—MiIIard Fillmore,
the Whig candidate for Vice Pranident, is the
comptroller of New York, to which high office he
was elected by over 38,000 majority. Ho was
chairmen of the committee of way' and means of
the 27th Congress.
UNIVERSAL ANNEXATION.—A
gen Lncofoco closed a speech in laudation of Gen
CAS/ in thaw words:
"In regard to the further extension and acquisi
tion of territory, .1 would have this portion of
God's footstool as a District of Columbia, the rest
of the planetary system as States, and the fired

that owing to • paralytic stroke, he will not prob.

attack from which he suffered occurred on Eastor

On motion of DAWIIIL M. Sturtern, Esq., a com

D. M'Coaaughy, Henry Culp, Daniel Gilbert and
Dr. Vandersloot. The Committee bevinvetired,
J•was J. Risen, Esq., having been called upon to
address the meeting, responded in • feeling and
eloquent Manner, eliciting frequent applause from
the audience.
The Committee, having returned, 'sported.
through their chairman, D. Ma Suisse, Esq.. the
following resolution', which, alter able and elo
' quent addresses by D. M'Com•tronx and D. M.
Serum, Eels, were unanimously adopted:
The campaign of 1848 is begun. The
hero "who never surrenders," is, by the
voice of the nation, the Captain of the
Whig army of the United States. The
youthful hero of Ibrt Harrison—the con
queror at Okeechobee—the victor of Palo
Hesaca de la -Pahna, and Monterey
—the hardy veteran who, at Buena Vista,
breasted the overwhelming tide of su
perior numbers, and chained victory to his
car—has been, by the assembled wisdom
of the Whigs ol the nation, presented to
the people of the United States, as a candi
date for the office of President, and it is now
for that people, w horn lie has so often elect, i
tied by his victories, to respond to the appeal
thus made to their a ffectionategratiple.
We, a portion of that people, confiding
in the wisdom and better information of
that Convection, have filet to join in this
response—to manifest our purpose of uni
ting our efforts with those of our fellow
citizens elsewhere, to elevate • Old Rough
and heady" to the first office in the peo
ple's gill—and to express our determina
tion too seek the attaiment of this purpose
only in the use of fair and honorable MeallS.
Success achieved on any other terms would
be joyless to him, and unworthy of
We collie, too, to lay on the altar of our
country's good, all our former differences
of opinion and personal preferences and
predilections. There are those amongst
us, whose first choice would have been
the venerable sage of Ashland, or the glo
ry-crowned Conqueror of Mexico ; but
the National. Convention has otherwise
decided, and we bow to their choice, and
recognize, in the war-worn chieftain they
have chosen, a man worthy our support,
of our gratitude, of our affection. Often
and severely as he has been tried he has
always proved equal to every emergency.
Events have developed the Roman sim
plicity and energy of his character, in all
its massive proportions. Modest and un
assuming, never courting notice VW pre
ferment, his march to glory has been on
ward and inevitable as the course of des
tiny. Events could not create, they only
developed his greatness. Unshaken firm
ness, honesty of purpose,.elear judgment
and decisive action, are the leading traits
in his character; and to such a min we
feel that the destinies. of the country May
be safely confided. In MILLAfRD FILL
MORE, the nominee for the Vice Presi
dency, the people have presented to them
a candidate every way worthy of their
confidence and support. Wise and pru
dent in council, long experienced in the
legislative councils of the nation, and pos
sessing the unlimited esteem and regard
of the people of New York, he will bring
to the discharge of his duties everey that
rable qualification. Of sound and well
tried political faith and integrity, the pee.
ple need entertain no fears of finding in
him a Judas or a Tyler, should the duties
of President, by the ordinition of Dltrine
Providence, devolve upon MM. Of pure
and blameless morale ' he is an ornament to
society; and in him, the Senate of the U.
States would find a presiding officer wor
thy of its dignity and high reputation.—
Therefore be it
Resolved, That we cordially regrind to
the nomination of GE ZACii 111111 r Atilt

by the National Convention that assem

meat of the Tonsils, and tot the year, so great
was the swelling, that she was unable to sleep
more than half an boar at a time, without being
compelled to insert the finger in her throat and
opening it, for the purpose of breathing. I hail
tried every thing that was recommended, and
employed Physicians both here and In Baltimore.
•but they gave no relief, (they could 'slime her
only by applying the lance, but she would not
consent,) and it contibued in that state-until her
case was made known to your agent in this
place, who promptly furnished the Expectorant,
and after using four bottles,her throat is almost
entirely cured. No one could scarcely believe
the benefit derived from using it. but those who
saw the state in which her throat was before
using the Expectorant, and the appearance now.
There are several persona, known to your agent,
who have watched the progress of the medicine
during its use, who are willing to testily to the

READ AND UNDERSTAND,
ill HE PRINCIPLE OF LIFE, that subtle
and invisible priciple which animaters the
human frame, and whose seat is in the blood, is
one of the most impenetrable secrets ot the Crea

we know that it is in the blood. for it we or..
CRl.sc the amount of blood in the body; we de

draw all the blood from the body, that lire ceas

on this subject, no one can doubt it. The Infra
the flesh is IiMPIIATICAILLY in the atoms I—There
can be no mistake upon this subject ; so we must
then be also convinced that anytning which im
pedes the circulation of the blood must depress
or bear down the principle ot Life, and make the
body subject to receive injury from the principle
of corruptibility implanted 'nth* human frame.
We cannot deny it. There is in every created
being • principle of corruptibility, as well as a
principle of animation. It is when this corrupt
ibility becomes too powerful for the lora Pain
crime or Blood, that disease commences. It is
not because it does exist, but because it„tiecomes

the constitution of the child depends upon its

his life, and oho that which will iltirmately de
destroy him, and when of age be trrusami s them
to his children.
Thus we see that in the same body is the
principle of life and also of corruptibility. And
it is only by due attention in some bodies that
health can be.insured by artificial modesofaxnat.

accumulations ef corruptibilit), which oteerwive
would overpower the principle ot lite. before the
individual had reached to the full period at his
existence, recording to the principle ochre with•
in him. For, on order that nun should arrive at
that period of life called old age, a µedict balance
must exist between the principle of late and the.
principle of corruptibility. When the balance
lie in favor of this principle of We, we observe the
energy of character with admiration. And 1
have no doubt that just in proportion as the life
principle predominates is the erstrgy both of
body and mind. By the inie.of-proper medicine
this can always be secured until a good old age.
The principle of corniptinn is subject to the
influence of many causes of vitiat ion. It is, there.
fore, necessary that we be provided with ample
means to prevent injury•from it; or in tonsil
pence of this venation that putridity would be
produced which would destroy the individual ere
he had arrived at that period. of life which he
would have done from the principle of life which
was in him. Now, to accomplish this, we must
prevent an accumulation of those humors which.
bear down the principle of lite. Do not wait for

of the enemy assist nature in her operations to
