rotwatisted 9Faam 44, Hawkins 22.
If the party will now go to work in earnest, the
election of our candidate isleyond a doubt. He has
4outht in many a struggle heretofore for democratic
vtriabiples; has maintailed - the cause when there was
not the slightest hope of success, and now when the
prospects are bright and cheering we feel confident that
the party will rally to him with all its strength.
It is of great, importance to thedistrict that it should
ibe 'represented in the present Congress by a democrat
witeis able and willing to use his talents and influence
'to advance the interests of his constituents. If Judge
W.tatetas had retained his seat, he would have had
ati important influence in all matters of interest to
this district, bat his appointment toss cabinet office has
left ns unrepresented, and if the vacancy should be
filled bi a person opposed to the majority in the '
House,ando2poawl to the liberal views of the Presi
dent, Pittsburgh has but small ground to hope for .any
piddle fitvors. Mr. Clay, in a reckless speech against
' , vat city, refused to support a measure that was deem
ed of great importance to our interests, and giving his
reasons for opposing it, declared that all our boasted
advantage oftieing placed at the head of navigation on
the ghio wasrmtrue, as the river at Pittsburgh was
frozen over one half the year and dried up the

in carryinglneasnres that would contribute to the wel

If the citizens of all parties desire a representative

support -the democrati : nominee His devotion to the
interestsbf his native city, and his ability to advocate
theaters understood, and his political connexion with
the majority in Congress will give him an influence
that no whig could possibly possess.
Tut Law or 1705.—During the present session of
the Legislature numberless petitions have been presen
ted, praying forthe "repeal of the law of 1705," as it
is called, which prohibits the selling of spirituous li
quors on the Sabbath, and subjecting persons found
drinking in taverns on that day to a fine, which reverts
lb* use of the guardians of the poor. The law has
ieteHoheined unknown, or at least obsolete for many years,
end has therefore remained unnoticed. Recently, how'
ever, the advocates of Temperance in Philadelphia,
have - waked up on the subject, and have appointed
Committees who make it their business to visit the dif
ferent-public houses in that city on the Sabbath, and
reportall offenders. 1 n consequence, numbers both sel
lers. and drinkers, have been fined. The petitions
were referred to the Committee on Vice and Im
moans, lity, who reported on the 21st alt, on the subject,

county. The Committee take strong ground against
the repeal of the law, and urge its enforcement in all

isiiirt;the vote stood yeas 27, nays 0. The usual num
ber of kipies were ordered to be printed, and the above
vote attached, to show the sense of the Senate on the
Temperance question.
THE TWENTY FIRST RULE.—We are very sorry to
see that through the want of firmness on the part of
three or four members this odious and vexatious rule
bas again-been restored in the House of Represents-
Lives. It has been the cause of much waste of time
and money, and the neglect of many important interests
.of the people. About a month each session is consu
med in discussions about it, and we rejoiced to find
ttrat It had been repealed. It was furthermore a pal
pable violation of the rights of the people. and of g r e a t
'orrice to the Abolitionists in their crusade against the
south.
. The Daum is Dons!—We learn from Harrisburg,
that Mr. Cooper's resolution for a sale of the Public
Works, passed the House of Representatives on Sa
turday last, by a 'Foto of 48 to 45. We trust the pro
ject will be defeated in the Senate, or receive the Ex
ecutive's veto. We have labored earnestly and sin
eerely against it and believe that should it pass, the
people of the State will deeply and bitterly regret the
day when it became a law.

WHIG AND ANTINI ASONIC CONVENTION.
This body assembled in the Ntw Court House on
Wednesday last, and was organized by choosing the
following officers :
President—FßANClS KARNS, of Elizabeth.
Vice Presidenls—Jno.Lnughlin and r. C. Elane-
gun.
Sccretarics—R. 11. Davis, J. B. Sawyer and C.
Suively.
The President having stated the object of the Con
vention, the delegates then handed in their credentials
to the Secretaries, and took their seats.
A letter was then read from H. M. Brackenridge,
Esq., requesting that his name might not be brought
beforetbe Convention for nomination, and soundly ra
ting them for their ingratitude towards him. Ho had
zealously advocated an union of the whig and antima
sonic parties during the last contest, and for doing so
his character had been most unjustly and cruelly as
sailed, and to now cast him aside and forbid his pre
; tensions from being considered, would be as impolitic
on the part orate union party as it would be unjust to
him. lie thought there are obligations which ought
to be reciprocal; if pitalic men owe fidelity to the par
ty which honors them, they in turn ought not to be abin
doned without reason, after being exposed to all the
violent assaults of political enemies, merely in conse
quence of having been Altus placed in a conspicuous
point of w.
After the reading of the letter the following gentle
men were nominated as candidates to Congress before
the Convention, and received the number of votes set
opposite their names on the first ballot.
Cornelius Darragh, 41
Charles Avery, 29
Mr. Darragh having received the highestnumber of
votes, was declared duly nominated: and the Conven
tion, by a vote, unanimously eonfirmed the nomina
tion.
James B. Sawyer, Esq. offered a series of resolutions
relative to the Tariff question, which was adopted
tintuiimotisiy
Mr. E. W. Stephens also submitted to the con
sideration of the Convention a number of resolutions
i n favor of a Tariff,the Distribution of the Public Lands,
the Veto- power, a sound Currency, the one term prin
ciple, the audition of all secret oath-bound societies,
and against the annexation of Texas to the Union.
They were adopted, unanimously.
Mr. D. M'Curdy, of Elizabeth, offered resolutions
congratulating the Union Wh.lg and Ant itnasonic par
ty upon their present harmonious organization, and
recommending the organization of Antimasonic and
Whig Clubs in the election districts in the County.
The resolutions were adopted, and the Convention
adjourned sine die.
ABOLITION CON V ENT loN. —The Libctty men o
Allegheny county met in Convention yesterday at Tem
perance Hall, for the purpose of nominating a candi
date fur Congress. Neville B. Craig, Dr. Penniman,
D . r. Wm. Elder, Rev. Edward Smith, John Walker,
David Gilleland and John Hannen, were placed in
nomination ; but wereall subsequently withdrawn, ex
cept that of Mr. NETILLE B. CR*lO, who was nomi
nated by acclamation.
The Convention then passed a member of resolutions
declaratory of the position df the Liberty party on
the questions apart from Slavery. They declare
themselves in favor of a Protective Tariff. against
Clay's distribution plan, and were rather non-commiva I
on the subject of a National Bank and the Sub-Treasu
ry. We very much admired the pretty manner in
which they dodged these questions. They declared
that nether party contemplated the establishment of a
Bank, and that the Sub-Treasury had beeti,by general
consent abandoned, and they did not wish to undertake
what nether of the othet parties had been able to ac
complish, or to become resurrectionists. We would
have been exceedingly edified, and greatly instructed•
if they had told us their authority for such declarations.
We are quite sure that the democratic party still ad
here, with unabated confidence, to the Sub-Treasury;
and Mr. Clay, and the party that !supports him, have
never signified an abandonment of a National Bank.
On the contrary, on their advent to power one of their
first acts was to pass a bill chartering such an institu
tion, and their whole opposition to the present Execu
tive arises from the fact that he withheld from that
bill his assent. This dodging and shirking from an
avowal of their opinions on these important questions,
tallies badly with their vaunting declarations of candor,
and their contempt of non -committalism, with which
the Resolutions began.
Fortunately, however, the views of their candidate
on these subjects, are so well known as to prevent
any democrat from being deceived by this sneaking
policy.
07In an annual report, recently published, of the
Yale College Temperance Society, the following curi
ous passage occurs, shewing that bard-ciderism in
1840 was too strong in some quarters for total absti
nence and had a license of six per cent. in the drink
ing way. It appears from this that the coonish party
spirit contains just six per cent. of alcohol, and will
get into the head if one takes enough of it:
"To the early part of the year 1340, the Class of
130 formed a Class Temperance Society, with a
pledge excluding all liquors emilaitting over six per
eesi of alcohol. The peculiarity of this pledge was
for the_acconamodation of those IN VIZ HARRISON
CAMPAIGN. This Society afterwards changed its
pledge, and excluding ell intoxicating drinks."

Dr. Gamut) was therefore declared duly nominated
as the candidate for Congress of the Democratic party
at the election to be held on the 15th inst.
A Resolution was then passed pledging the mem
bers to support the nominee of the convention.
A committee of four, were appointed to notify Dr.
Gazzam of his nominntion: Robert Porter, Churles R.
Johnston. R. A. Reesman, and Samuel Snowden,
were appointed this committee.
The following resolutions were than adopted by
the convention :
Resolved, hat this convention views with alarm
and detestation, every proposition for the creation of a
corporation for the purchase of the main line of the
public works—that we consider it an insidious at
tempt of speculating aristocrats, undet the pretence of
paying the public debt, to get into their hands n power
incalculably greater than any Monster Bank, or than
all banks together—a power that would tender profit
less all thebraitch canals alai railroads left in the hand,.
of the state, or make them mere tributaries to itself—
amot eyed combination of unlimited means, and with
innumerable hirelings devoted to its purpose, having
jurisdiction over th whole length of the state—a pow
er that may bind the people of the state in fetters that
cannot be broken without a revolution-1 i power that
may wield and control the whole commerce of the
state, and influence all its legislatirn-- 1 resi:t'ess com
bination of all the materials of aristocratic strength,
that may very soon, if erected, stifle every breathing of
democratic liberty,
Resolved, That our Senators and Representatives
in the General Assembly, be requested to use their ut
most endeavors to prevent the passage of any such a
law , thus fraught with danger to the liberties of the
State.
On motion of Capt. Robert Porter, it was
Resolved, That the appointmesit of our late dis

The Houston Democrat of the 17th pronnunce4 the
"glorious news" promulgated through the extra of the
Telegraph, in regard to the despatches received by
General Murphy on the subject of annexation, as a
hoax.
The Brazos Planter says."Wo understand from un
doubted information, that President Houston is oppo
sed to annexation." The Democrat douhts the cor
rectness of this information, and remarks:
"General Houston, we presume, looks to the spee
dy independence of ,Texns as the most desirable and
advantageous to his country: and so long as there is a
probability of attaining it within n reasonable time,
would not willingly abandon the means employed to ef
fect the consumatiou. This we believe to be the wish
of the nine-tenths of the pi.ople of Texas. While
there is a hope of negociations resulting successfully,
without being unreasonably protected,it would be fully
to break them off; yet should it become necessary to
do so, it will he found, we believe, that &mere' Hous
ton is prepared toembrace the alternative, and will not
seek to interpose obstacles in the way of the immedi
ate annexation of Texas to the Union."
- .
The same paper states:
From information which we have received ft orn
source which leaves no room to doubt its correctness,
relative to the pending negotiations with Mexico, and
the very favorable despatches recently teceived by our
government. we are strengthened in the conviction that
under present circumstances, at least, annexation is
far from being desirable,"
Previous to the adjournment of Congress, a bill mak
ing an appropiation toward the payment of the navy
officers was vetoed; but another bill fur the same ob
ject, and nut differing materially in amount, was pas
sed and was approved of by the President.
