ENTIRE HARMONY AND GREAT
ENTHUSIASM,
The Démogratic State Convention
met at Harrisburg, on Wednesday,
July 14, and was called to order by
Hon. Wm. A. Wallace.
{ JHon. C. R. Buckalew was unani-
mously elected chairman, with one
vice president from each senatorial dis-
trict. Mr. Buckalew on taking the
chair made a very elogent address.
The committee on resolutions repor-
ted the following, which were unani-
mously adopted, as the platform of the
Pennsylvania Democracy :
RESOLUTIONS
1. That the federal government is
limited in power to the grants con-
tained in the Federal Constitution ;
that the exercise of doubtful consti-
tutional powers is dangerous to the
stability of the government and the
safety of the people, and the democrat-
ic’ party will never consent that the
State of Pennsylvania shall surrender
her great right of local self-govern-
ment.
2. That the attempted ratification of
the proposed fifteenth: amendment to
the Federal Constitution by ‘the radi-
cal members of the last legislature, and
their refusal to submit the same to a
vote of the people, was a deliberate
breach of their official duty and an
outrage upon every citizen - of the
‘State, and the resolution making such
ratification should be promptly repeal-
ed andthe amendment submitted to
the people at the polls for acceptance
or rejection.
3. That the democratic .party of
Peniisylvania is opposed to conferring
-wupon-the-negro-the- right to vote, and
we do emphatically deny that there is
any right or power in Congress or else-
where to impose negro suffrage upon
the people of this State. in opposition
to their will.

The letter was read as follows, by
Col. Carrigan.
Sarr Pav, May 21st, 1869.
DEAR SiR: 1 had the pleasure toe
ceive your favor of May first lust, just
before leaving Washington for the
west. My occupation and duties pre-
vented me from promptly replying to
your communication ; a circumstance
to be regretted, for I was as well pre.
pared to express to you my views then
as now—and by having promptly
written I would have avoided the ap-
pearance of hesitation.
My views on the subject; concerning
which you have addressed’ me, have
never changed, and I have fully ex-
pressed them to all persovs who have
in any way communicated with me to
that end. I am adverse to intruding
myself upon the public, and have there-
fore ever avoided writing anything for
publication, although I have author
ized my correspondents to make any
other proper use of my sentiments, *
. I feel highly honored by
the preference shown by my friends in
old Northampton expressed in that
letter. * X * iy oi
I must say, and without reservation,
that under existing circumstances I
cannot permit the use of my name in
the convention shortly about to assem-
ble. Were I in civil life, no distinction
would be greater to me than to be Gov-
ernor of Pennsylvania. T have fol-
lowed the profession of arms since boy-
hood; and now, having acquired cov-
siderable rank, do not wish to abandon
the service. Boside, I'do not wish - to
epter upon a life in which I know _I
have had no experience or education.
* * * ® * *
There are those who could serve your
interests betier than myself, whom the
people will be pleased to honor, and
vice to the people of Pennsylvania than
myself.
I am truly your obedient servant,
WixrFeILD Scort HANCOCK,
Mr. Ancona. It is the desire of the
masses that Gen. Hancock shold ‘be
the ‘candidate of this Convention,’ not-
withstanding it is not his desire to have
his name presented.;; With his, name
we will march forward to victory over
the strongest foe. He is well known ;
he has never turned his back on fridhid
or foe [applause]; and berwill: mot re-
fide to acceptin ‘this ease. I shall in-
sist upon casting ny vote for General
Hancock.

[Fromthe N.Y. Sun.j
WHAT DOES HE THINK OF IT NOW !
When the gallent Col: M'Clure
held his celebrated interview with Gen.
Grant in ‘February last, he begged
the. General not, to put. into the ,cabi:
net which he was then about. to organ.
ize any such man as Mr. Adolphe
Borie, for the reason ‘that ‘politicians
of that stamp “could not vitalize a
party,” To. this the General replied
with one of the humerous sayings
which he sometimes at his command.
Wedon’t now remember what helsaid,
but he was thought at the time to
have got immediately the advantage
of M'Clure.
Since then, Borie has been lifted in-
to the cabinet and has been hoisted out
again, to give place to a Jerseyman
just as little known and just as insigni-
ficant as he was ; and now we read in
the papers thatJobhw Covede and Si-
mon Cameron are in Washington to
implore Gen. Grant, as M’Clure did in
February, to put somebody into the
cabinet whose appointment will wital-
ize' the polities of Pennsylvania, and
save the republicans from defeat with
which they feel that they are threaten-
ed in Octobar, Whether General
Grant still thinks his wit of February
to have been good wit, and thé appoeint-
ment of the amiable Borie—with his
gift of five thousand dollars toward
General Grant's house—to have been
a -bailliant appointment, he would
probably rather not state at present.
Whatever may now be done, it is
most probable that republicans will be
beaten in Pennsylvania, and beaten,
let us say, merely because General
Grant has provod himself unequal to
the work he has undertaken to do. To
change the cabinet now, and appoint
the ahlest ‘arid "most unobjectionable
cifizen of that State in the place
Mr. Fish, Mr.. Hoar, Mr. Cresswell,
or Mr. Robeson; would not mend the
matter much for the moment. Nuith.
votes of Pennsylvanians in October
are concerned, "for the President at
once to threw overboard the crew of his
relations and croneys, the Caseys, the
Dents, the Hudsons, the Fords, and

fat eargo he'would lave his “favorites
grow rich and Tasty. “It would proba-
bly also be useless, for the purpose of
this Pennsylvania "election, to reverse
the fatal policy toward the Cubans,
which bas put this great country into

ism, labroing for the perpetuation of

before his inauguration. Errors may
gotten. Confidence once forfeited can-
be fully restored.

the war; leaving the Shermans, Thom
ases, Sheridahs in idle inaction. The
only result of such a course with an ar-
my would be defeat; and Gen. Grant
will yet.come to understand, if he lives
& year or two longer, that as much
common sense is necessary in the gov-
ernment of a. country ns in the « com-
mand of troops. |»
He learns this indispensible Jeskon
very slowly, however. This last aston-
ishing appointment of Robeson shows
that he still supposes that he can freely
indulge the levity of his own whim in
the selectien of his ministers. This is
a dangerous delusion, like sevral others
that possess him, and control his judge
ment. We tell him in all kindness
and earnestness, that he is walking on
the verge of a precipice, and that his
r.iin and that of his party will be black
siden, and beyond remedy, if he does
not speedily’ arous himself to. the reali-
ties around him. , A free government
can only be carried on with the hear
ty support of the people. Will Gen.
Grant never learn what it is to be
President? It is evident that he has
not begun to apprehend the nature of
the responsibilities, that rest upon him.
Let us bope that he will open his
mind to the admiration of these ex-
perienced men of Pennsylvania, and
perceive, however dim, what great
opportunities his frivolty has wasted.
Let him, too, if he would avoid a
greater evil than the loss of the ap-
proachiug elections, make haste to re-
trace his ill-advised steps, and as far
as possible to repair the faults he has
committed.
