FITLLek of Luzerne county, be the nom inee of the Democratic Whig Party of Pennsylvania for Canal Commitisioner, at the ensuing election. " The resolution was adopted by accla mation and greeted with warm applause. Mr. Swartaweider, from the Committee on Resolutions, reported the following, which were read anti unanimously adopt ed : • Tho Delegates from the various coun ties and districts of Pennsylvania assem bled together in Convention, for the pur pose of selecting and presenting to the peo ple a suitable candidate fur their suffrages lin' the 'office of Canal Commissioner, and having performed that duty, present the follfiwiug resolutions, as expressive of their views and sentiments on the great principles of National and State policy. Resolved, That this Convention offers its warm congratulations to the people of the United States and our glorious old Commonwealth, on the success of the Democratic Whig party, in the election of that sound. merlin... patriotic Democratic Gen. ZACHARY TAYLOR* to the of fice of President of the United States, and of Wm. F. JouNsroN, our firm, enlighten ed and intelligent Governor, to the high est Alen within this Commonwealth. Rem!red, That with such men as Tay lor and Johnston a) the head of our ga tional and State afiliirs, the people have no reason to tear an abandonment of their interests or betrayal of their rights, but may repose in perfect confidence that the honor of the State and nation will be pre served untarnished, and the•intereaus of the people protected and promoted. Resolved, That iu calling to his assis lance in the administration of public affairs, the honest, the sagacious, and experien ced statesman of the country, the Pres ident gives assurance that every depart ment of the government under his eon • trol twill he faithfully administered ; that the interests of the whole people will be constantly protected and fostered ; that 'ndirs faith with all nations will be stead ily regarded f and that following the exam ples of the earlier Presidents, the pure re publican principles of the Constitution will be deemed paramount, whatever iperpre tation they may have received froa4eeent political commentators. Resolved, That the selection of William M. Meredith, for the responsible office of Secretary of the Treasury, meets the hear ty concurrence of the people of the State ; that while. Pennsylvania is honored in the choice of one of her gifted sons, she feels a proud confidence that the administration will be strengthened by the influence of his virtues, and the eminent abilities be brings to the discharge of his duties. Resolved, That we have undiminished confidence in the lion. James Cooper, whose past bile ;Ands the surest guaranty that he will nobly vindicate and sustain the interests of Pennsylvania in the Na tional Legislature. Rao/yeti, That if properly sustained by the ection of Co agrees, the enlightened Chief Magistrate of the nation will, in a brief space of time, restore to the people orthil country the policy adopted by the fathers of the Republic ; the dessemina ofjost and equal laws, protection to their honest industry, adequate wages for their labor, the improvement of Rivers and harbors, and the promotion of their gen ;ol happiness. .Restikird, That protection to the indui try of the people, is one of the first duties ofigurcrunieut ; that the truo interests of *ate and Notion are best promoted by pla einethe Manufacturer, Mechanic, Laborer, side by side with the Agriculturalist, that the d vastest prosperity for the coun- 1 11.- have been those when domestic labor 4ijabsi t al !tweeted.

That as Pennsylvania, we nitentelnassoltsubnaikto toe our won man tatnelltinittn our 'mime of coal , rendered valueless, our laborers and citi zens unemployed, our farmers without a Market for their products, our capital des troyed, and business paralyzed, to try any further experiments on the Locoing() the ories of Pree Trade, whet, wo are taught by all past experience that poverty and want mast be the consequence of import ing from other countries those articles which we can better manufacture within our own borders. Resolved, That, in the language of Gov ernor Wm. F. Johnston, we view slavery las an infraction of human rights—oppos ed to the enlightened spirit el our free in i stitutions—destructive of equality of pow er in the general government. by enlarging, i where it exists, the constitutional represen tation--possessing an influence against Northern and Western policy and inter ests, by promoting a system of laws dea -1 intense of domestic industry and vitally / affecting free labor, retarding the natural growth of population and improvement, by the appropriation of large tracts II I land for the benefit of the l'ew, to the injury of the , manv—as in open defiance of the spirit of I the age, the maridi of rational truth, and I the enlightened policy of mankind,—and while in good faith we would maintainithe I oompromises of the constitution, the fur 7 I ther extension of the system should •be i steadily and firmly resisted. I Resolved, That we have undiminished and abiding confidence in our pariotic, en : lightened and worthy Governor, Win. F. Johnston, and believe that with such a . man at the head of our State affairs, if pro- I perly sustained by nu intelligent Legisht i titre, Pennsylvania will be able to assume and sustain her exalted station at . the head of the National Confederacy. Resolved, That the thanks of this Con vention are tine to our efficient and indefat -1 igable State Treasurer, lion. 0 IDKON J. BALL, for his patriotic and successful ex ertions in paying the interest on our state debt in specie, thereby sustaining the ere dit of the Commonwealth against the utr; worthy combination of tho locofoco lead ers to tarnish and break it down, by pre maturely drawing enormous sums ofroon-, ey from the public treasury, to place in the hands of their office-holders awl political parasites, under a pretext of paying the la borers on the public works. Resolved, That we hall with joy th e seccessitil struggle of the - gallant HUdgli- - riani for their ..long lost liberties"—.-and , deeply deploring the unhappy fate of Rome, loathe and destest the treachery and incon sistency of her Republican conqueror—and with our whole heart send Our Shout Of good cheer to all the down trodden and op presed of the old world, balding against tyrants and tyranny. . Resolved, That as the government is in duty bound to protect the lahor of the country, so, more especially, should it be its care to foster and protect the youthful laborer, the youth of the country being its most valuable possession. Ms therefore deem the law known as the Ten Hour law, a proper and judicious safeguard against oppression. . . , , . Resolved. Thafwe heartily approve and wilt sustain an Elective Judiciary, a Whig measure, carried out by the last Whig le gislature. Resolved, That in resenting to the citizens of Pennsylvania, the name of HENRY M. FULLER as a candidate for their suffrages for the office of Canal Commissioner, we have given them a man entirely worthy of 'their confidence, one who is well known to the people, and the entire unanimity of this Convention is the surest criterion of the. estimation in which he is held by his fellow citizens. Resolved, That it is the true interests of the people to have gentlemen in the Board of Canal 'Commissioners entertaining dif ferent political principles, u thereby the fradulent bestowal of pnblieutoney on par ty favorites for party , tenpin, will be prevented. Wif therefore call upon the honest ufritaying people of Pennsylvania to give , their spillages to HENRY M.

We learn from the Louisville papers of the 10th instant, that a dreadful occurrence took place on the day previous at Bards town, Ky. It appears that R. Logan 'Wickliffe, a young lawyer of that place. and W. I'. Gray, a blacksmith, have been up on unfriendly terms for some years, and have had no intercourse of any 'kind for a long time. Gray on the Sunday previous let a gentleman have one of his horses to go to the country, and as the gentleman I returned he met R. L. Wickliffe, who ask ed the use of his horse to go to a religious meeting some miles distant. The gentle ! man let him have the horse and acquaint ed Gray owner) with the fact, who remarked that Mr. Wickliffe should not use his property, (or words to that amount,) and immediately mounted another horse and proceeded with a friend in quest of Wickliffe. When he arrived at the meet ing house Gray found his horse hitched to a tree, and immediately took him in charge and reiurned with him to town. lie had no words with Wickliffe on the ground, and did not even see him. Wickliffe is said to have been greatly incensed when he tnissed the. horse and understood who had ' taken it away, and made some hard threats against Gray. The circumstances were' generally known and commented upon in Bardstown, and till who knew Wickliffe! and Gray expected a difficulty between them. Nothing, however, transpired be lumen them until Thursday morning, a-' bout 10 o'clock, when, as Gray was goiug down street towards home, and had got ] within some twenty steps of his house, AVickliffe came out of his office, (nearly opposite Gray's house,) armed with a dou ble barreled shot gun, took rest against a locust tree, and fired—the discharge taking effect in Gray's side. Gray turned, and as lie did so, Wickliffe discharged the second barrel, striking him either in the back or breast. lle immediately fell, was carried into the house, and upon examination ofj his wounds the physiAans pronounced them mortal.!, Gray was still alive on Thursday night. but could not possibly I isuryive. Wickliffe had escaped. THE PRESIDENT'S JOIIIINEY FROM nEDFORD TO SOMERSET. • The journey from Bedford Springs to St' imertiet was over n dreary road, through the mountains, with only here and there a dwelling and oerasinnally a tavern, the road being notch frequented by drovers.— The President, Governor and suite, stop ped at one of these taverns in the moun tains to dine, and though the exterior was anything but prepossessing. the meal fur nished would do credit to any of our first city hotels. The President, after dinner was over, mingled freely with the crowd, and soon became engaged in an interesting conversation with a rank Gneefeceii ton C hing his political principles. promises, 4 hie ken pledges," dm, in which ho wound up his antagonist in a way at'once dignified and good natured. • The conversation ran somewhat after this Lashio Loco.—( Walking up to Mt Preeident.)

The argument veasi conclusive, and the Locofoco could not escape • so, with more honesty than is posses:ad by those from whom he drew his complaints, he "confessed the grain.' and owned up.-- The whole affair ended in a general laugh, and the Locofocp at parting, shook the Maiden' by the hand, repeating, " you're right. Gineral ; you're right!" till the car. time rolled away: OEN. TAYLOR'S SPEECHES. Some of the opposition journals find it rare sport to criticise Oen. Taylor's speeches and ridicule his manners. They say that he is awkward before strangers, and does not make favorable . impression. On this point there may well be a differ eneer of opinion. - Barely - enough,' - fie has not the manners of a dancing maker, but irhas been- well said that he gave a re ception to twenty thousand stranges at Be-. ena Vista in a style that few dancing mas ters could have equalled. As to his speech-making, the people know very well what kind of speeches Gen. Taylor made before they elected him President. Heaven has bestowed divers gifes - on divers persona. It was not neceti sary for Gen. Taylor to make long speech es in order to gain the popular confidence ; and that confidence will not be withdrawn because he fails to make . long speeches. When the chivalrous Hull broke the spell of England's supreuiacy on the ocean by the capture of the Gderriere, on his re iurn'to port he was complimented by the cititens of Boston with a public dinner. The cloth being removed, after a few prelim inary toasts, came that to the honor`of the captain: "Our gallant guest, who has secured for himselfa name and a praise among his countrymen, and added terror to the courtesy cf his country's flag."— The toast was drank with enthusiasm, and then all was quiet. A friend, sitting next to the gallant cap lain, said, "Sir, we are waiting fur your speech." , 4A speech I" said the chival rous but modest Hull, "I can't make one I don't know how." A gentleman on the opposite aide of the table exclaimed, audi bly, “Bir, you are in fur a speech,. Don't you see that the President is , waiting for I,lour response to the toast?" The noble rar rose up and said, , 631 r. President, the gentlemen round Me say, that you and the other gentlemen are waiting for me to make a speech. Bir, I never made one in my life. I can't do it, air. I don't know bow, sir. P d raffia fight die Wile over again than try it." • The rafters of Faneuil Han were a little displaced 'by . the truthful delicacy of the gallant captain ; but we never heard that the newspapers of thattay thought it a pro per subject of ridicule,.or that It impaired the w4l-mmted honors of the•ehivairoua. gSI ,I 3IIMIVMII D' END. o,left Ste • • • -- • lens, olpsr,tch, an intemperate man, came(lo'''tOwn hlanduy list to peddle fish, and pat up at Savory'S Hotel.

THE INDIANS ON ME MINIOVRI AND P LA Tx E.—Accounts from the Yellovi Stone River to the 16th June state that the Indians were all in a dissatisfied edit dition. and at continual war with each oth er. The Indians at the Cros Ventres vil lage had been attacked by 1,200 of the Sioux, but the latter were repulsed. Mr. GAROT, in charge of the American Fur Company's fort, fired his cannon at the attacking party, and it was said they had sworn revenge. They were to return in twenty days with a reinforcement of 1,000 men, to exterminate the Gros Ventres In dians, and distroy the whites in the fort. It was understood that great numbers of Indians were dying of cholera, at the head of the Platte. SLAVERY IN CALIFORNIA.—The Hon. W. M.

On Saturday morning, the motion for a now trial in the Murder case was taken up and argued at length by Meuse Smuts and Ileastsa for the prisoner, and Mr. Ceuta for the Common wealth. The reasons assigned were alleged ,er rors of the Court-1. In overruling defendant's challenge, for cause, of Robert Cobean, a Juror called and sworn in the cause, 2. In admitting the examination of Dekmdard before Justice Dan ner, as evidence against the prisoner. 3. In per mitting illegal evidence to go to the Jury, by al lowing thecontente of the beg marked " Frederick Smith, Readiag," to be , given in evidence, unse, companied by proof Met the contents were the same as when the bag left the hands of the prix. oner at York. 4.

The argument on these points was able and protracted until 3 o'clock, in the afternoou, when the Court, with a vies of giving the prisoner the benelit,of a full alui databases examination of the points raised, announced its intention of deferring a decision until the 35th of September next, the time for holding the Orphans' Court. The im pression/COM to beVery general that the motion for a new trial, although very properly entered by the counsel for the defence, will be overruled by the Court, and that the fate of the unfortunate prisoner is in all probability sealed. One word by way of concluding, for the pro. • ent, our notice of this cue which has elicited so much general interest. The terrible nature of the crime charged upon the prisoner, the revolting eh cumitances trader which the murder must have been committed, with the overwhelming, crushing chain of evidence developed starriest the prisoner, have very naturally excited an extraordinary de gree of feeling in our usually quiet community, and directed an unusual degree of prejudice against the hapless individual whose life, in all probability, is to be the sacrifice width Meat atone for the ter rible mime of which he stands convicted. This Grating, under all the circumstances, we I ;e7, may be very natural and a:cambia ; but that any , pot- OOD of it should be directed (as we are informed is the use) against the counsel who so nobly re sponded to the dictates of boOtanity, and without any possible hope of meeting reward, have so untiringly and perseveringly devoted their sonl ess to a fair, full and logal , ,dellente of the prisoner oorPriding, and, we mast be permitted to say, not very complimentary to the judgment or good fuling Our people.

In a preceding column u ill be found the pro- ceedings of the State Convention *deb placed in nomination Maar M. Putt.an, of I.u• cane county, as the Whig candidate for Canal Commissioner.

Besides this, there aro groat principals at stake in the contest upon which we ere just entering, and which will be decided in the election or defeat of Mr. Futxxn jest ss effectually as if those principles were put in direct issue at 'die polls. They are the same as those for which we battled last fall, and are as worthy the confidence and support of the Whig party now as then.— The great question of Freedom and Slavery—Pro. tection and Free-trade--Exeeutive Dictation and the One-man Power vs. the right of the People to Legislate for themselves-:—are all to be fought over again in Pennsylvania this fall. And in view of the closely balanced position of parties in the next National Legislature, it is due to the men whom we have placed at the head of the National. Administration—it is due to the Whig party itself that the verdict which may be returned on these issues, should be earth an one as thaltatrongthen the hand, and encourage the hearts of Whig leg. islators--such an one as shall unmistakably re affirm the triumph of Whig principles in our rious oW.Commonwealth. Such a verdict can only be secured by a prompt, active, and efficient support of Mr. Futtrat and , the candidates of tits! Whig party generally.-- That it will be extended, we shall not permit our selves to doubt. Let us go to work, then, brethren I organize our forces at once, and, by diligent, faith ful service between this and the second Tuesday of October, prepare to give a good account of our selves at the polls. ' Our Duty. •- The Fall Campaign may now be considered as commenced. The nominations for Canal Com missioner have been made, and in a putaber of counties, in this State, are the tickets in the field. The work of the Whigs of the State will now be gin, and in order to elect our Canal Commission er, and procure a majority in the Legislature, they cannot too soon put the shoulder to the wheel.— Already are the Locofocos, who have obtained the precedence in their nominations, circulating, over the State, documents in support of their candi date ; and to counteract this influence--destruct. ive as it is—the Whigs must organize, arose, gird on their armor, rally around the nominee of the Convention, determine upon victory, and the result will be gratifying.

NEW PAST OFFICk A . new PasvOillea has besta sstaWishatt at, Asesshavdis, in Ibis a/4w ty-Mr. JACOB KJIICII&Zi, Nat *Ma, , THE IRON INTEREST—A meeting o f Furnace owners from various counties in Penn. sylvania, was held at Pittsburg, on Saturday, Au gust 18, to take into consideration the depressed state of the iron trade, end ascertain, the cause thereof, with a view of pointing ouianne remedial inkasree to protect this great branch #f Penasyi vaatia' inddatry from falling hen - . the.' same ruin which' it was visited ine./840,...10111. and 1842. A number of resolutions, were adopted, exprossive of the views of the meeting, and ar rangements adopted for a general Convention of the Formic* Owners of Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, and Ketucky, in Pittsburg,' on the 21st of November next. We extract the following from among the published resolutions: lissabmsh, That Aim presit4t4l.. state of the - iron trade has its origin and is entirely dallied by the - IoW rates of duty at Which English Iran ! la ittlaii,tititl into 'this country underthe tariff law of 1840, and its injialicious ed valorem principles. , , Resolved, That ffve-sieths of of the, val ue of pig iron consists oflabor and as this labor cap be procured in En gland at Jess than one-third of what it usually Commands in good limes in this country, we in the United States can never compete with the English iron masters except by a reduction of labor to the pauper rates of that country, or 'protection from its competition. Resolved, That it is not the wish of any of this meeting, and we hope of no Ameri can, to see the rates of labor in this happy country reduced to the rates of poverty in Europe. Resolved. That, to ensure a different and more happy slate, of things among ~us, the labor of this country, including its min eral end agricultund products, must be, pro tected in our Markets from the redundani labor of other countries. Resolved, That we and each ofus pledge ourselves to use the utmost 'or our otter. lions to procure such protection, which can only be secured by a duty of specific values. The Pittsburg Arntrieen says' that the members of the Convention, after the adjournment, visited President Taylor, and had a conversetion with him on the subject of the tariff: The' President made minute and particular inquiries into the state and condition of the iron trade, ail of which' were fully and clearly referred to by Messm My ers, Kerr, King, Black, and ethers. The Pratt- - dent, in the course of the conversation, expressed his decided disapprobation of the present tariff,, as utterly inadequate to the protection of many in terests Which demand it, and said that he mould ered the change from the tariff of 184/ to that of 1846 as unfortunaterowtany-eohrabhrinterests in the country, and particularly to that' f lobar.— That what wo requited wee spriyie, not ad valorem duties—that these latter left us at the mercy of the matitets in Europe--gave protection to indurtry here when it was not wanted, and denied it tone when we did. He said hewn. in fawn of a eye. tem that would promise permanency, sufficiently high to give reasonable protection to the industry . Of the country, but not so high se to amount to exclusion—he would not go, ho said, for that. "This conversation," adds the American, " for it partook of none orate charicteristica of a speech, removed all doubts from oar mind ss to the Presi• dent's views on the wilt There is rte firmer friend to a distinc6e protective tariff than the President, and in our opinion, more decidedly so than any • President, except probably Mr. infer- THE ABDUCTION OP REY.-.-The abdae tion of an individual named Rev ,at New Orleans, a month or two since, with the advice and consent, as is alleged, of the Spanish Consul at that port, ' , MI excites a good deal of attention at New Or leans, where the matter was undergoing a protract ed investigation. The Spanish Consul is under hail to answer the charge. Recent developments look as though there were more truth in the charge than at find appeared. The Washington Republic, in an article on the subject, speaks very decidedly, and says, "the outrage is ono which the American people will not submit to; and although the President of the United States has recently evinced to the Spanish authorities and to the world a determination to suppress all underhand. ed efforts to seize the island of Cuba, yet we know that, when once convinced that a free man, be he foreigner or native, has been fraudulently and for cibly kidnapped in an American city, by order of the Spanish authorities, he will he prompt to re sent the Insult, and compel a speedy atonement fur the outrage from the Spanish Government."
