Now, although this in not my opinion, yet 1 choerfully secede to others their right to differ from me, and I do not think that this difference of opinion fehould be tniide to disturb '.ho harmony of a school, fur our Com mon School System of education depends main ly for succew upon the united ctlorts of the peo ple of the several districts. This opinion I have always fully expressed. It is now made ground work of a bitter accusation against me. It is to be regretted Unit one who has, by his whole life and conversation, reverenced the Holy Scriptures, who in the good old way was at school, advanced from Dilw.irth's spelling book to reading in the Testament, and then took rank with the head class by reading in the Bible, thould be arraigned before the public, as an Vnemy to, or showing any the remotest disres pect for the sacred volume, because he respects tho opinions of those who believe that other books should be used to teach children the art of reading'. I am yours, respectfully, FRS. It. SilUNK." FRANCIS R. MllNK. Below we give the correspondence between tho Committee, appointed on the part of the De mocratic State Convention, and Francis R.

I In the discharge of tl.i-. duty Ijio com.nittrc ' take great plea-ure in communicatir.g to you j the fact of your nomination, and whilst they so licit your acceptance ofi', they beg leave to congratulate you upon the manner in which your name has been placed before your Dem ocratic fellow-citizens of IVnna., it being by the spontaneous and undivided vote of the whole convention, a nomination unpnrnllelled for u naniinity in any former Convention of the State. We are with sent imvnts of respect, Yours, Ac. Jnshtta Y. .ones. Alficd (Silmori; William Ih aly, V. Jancx, L' (1. Creacrafl. PiTTsnrnci, Sept. 10, IS 11. tirntlcmrn I have received your co'iimu tnication informing me that I was nominated in t Convention on the spcond inst., as the Demo cratic candidate for the office of Governor of Pennsylvania. By the nomination of Mr. Muhlenberg, the hopes and confidence of the Democratic party vf the State were concentrated in him ; his un expected and lamented death lias forced the party to seek another citizen, as his successor. The Convention his been pleased, with unex ampled unanimity, to select me fortius purpose; in accepting life nomination, I most sincerely end highly appreciate the distinguished hoi. or conferred upon me ; while at the Mrr.e time, I feci the unpleasantness of ihe position in which 1 am thus placed, and the heay responsibility of the station, to which the Democracy of the State would call me. Tue unpleasantness of inv nositioii is seen in the fact, that niv nriviite and political character, has already been placed! upon the public tahlo for dissection, and assai led with no ordinary degree of virulence. To fc'cape calumny I cannot hope, but I trust that a life not altogether unknown, will shield my reputation, and be the criterion by which it shall lie judged. 1 have always esteemed it an honor, to be connected w ith the Democratic P.irty, and to I It was by Democratic votes that the Tariff Act aid in carrying out its principles.

We are arrayed j It was a Democratic House of Representatives now, as wo always have been, not for the ad- j that refused, in 1M1, to disturb the present Ta vancement of part icular men to power, but fur riff Act. till Bimnnrl nf tt.O ITP.I il.lrinna .f ......! ! riphts. ' I Owing to the intim tie ennnexion nf this doc trine with the politics ofthe (ieneral, as well as the Statp, fiovernment, and from the neces sary influence of each uhid (lie other, the lead- ing measures and principles, both of parties and candidates, are with uroorielv discussed snd ex. i i j mined in ell our public contests, whether rela ting to the State or the Union. As a party we believe that the less man's na tural energies and talents ere interfered with by law, the better, excepting only when this in terference is necessary for social order. We would have no legislation in favor nf particular classes. We would give to every citmen an e 'jual ttiance in the conflicts of life, by abstain ing, as much us possible, I'r.iiu all Govertnental rcatrainta upon the frccd-jin of action, and from all Govermental contrivances, thatcan be bene- ficial only to particular portions or claws of , eoctety. believe in the competency of man I for aelf-government.Bnd that every ciliaen.ofi competent age, has a right lo a Voice in giving , direction to the course of government, even though hia judgment be not purified and en lightened by the possession of landed estate. We believe that banks, as heretofore organized, and conducted have been injurious to the far mers, mechanics and manufacturers and all the laboring classes of society, including the great mass of their customers, by reason of the exer cise of their unlimited power of inflating and depressing the currency, and, that the evil ought lo be cured by a removal of its cause. A subject of great interest in Pennsylvania, a the credit of the Stale, which haa been sha ken in no ordinary degree. Its speedy resto ution to full vigor cannot be dsubted, when we onsidcr the agricultural, commercial, manu- factoring; and mineral wealth of the Common wealth. The moral and physical force of the people, their skill, intelligence and virtue will neveryield, until all demands upon the honor and faith of the State are redeemed. A repub lican government, rightly administered reflects the character of the people i and the citizens of Pennsylvania will exert their energy and pow er, to place their beloved Commonwealth in that elevated position, for faith and credit, which distinguishes them aa individuals. They reject the political heresy, which is tolerated in cor porations, that there is a difference between the obligations of individuals, and of the associated individuals, to pay their just debts. By the discussion of the Tariff two points ap pear to be settled in this State, at lea it in the view of the Democratic Parly. Fir.-t That our true policy is, to lay its foundation in rea son and justice, to secure its permanency, and not in party feelings, to make it flourishing And secondly That the revenue required for an economical administration of the General Government, and no more, should be drawn from duties on foreign import, and in adjusting tho details of these duties, discriminations should be made fir cheiishing and encouraging all branches of domestic industry. To increase these duties beyond the permanent wants of the Government, involves a right to collect money for other purposes than those for which the peo ple adopted the Constitution of the United States, For, in order completely to secure and nrotect the nrincinlrs of r.malilv above snoken 0f, we contend for the sacrednew of the rule of construction, found in the Constitution itself, ,hat...,ie pnvvcrs l)()t delecuted to the United r. I I - I J -'I Sl-,cs ,,y t0 collslituti,m( ,lor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the State respec tively, or to the people." To raise by taxation cither for the purposes of Internal Improvement, or for distribution, more money than is required for the expenses of the government, would have a direct tenden cy to establish a great central power, deriving its force and influence from the annual appro priation of large sums of money. Thus the Ge neral Government would become the almoner i of the States, or ofthe people of the States; and, i instead of adhering to the simple principles of j government introduced by Jefferson, and going j j onward in tho inarch of freedom, we should re- !

On motion of David Taggart, Esq , it was u nanimously Resolved, That James Pollock, Esq. be and is hereby nominated as the Whig, Bank, Anti-Texas candidate for Congress in the 13th district. Resolved, That James Pollock is a gentleman of distinguished ability, powerful on the stump, and from the skilful manner in which he gets a round the questions of chartering; a United States Bank and raises the cry of Tariff!

Resolved, That we refrain from nominating Lot Berestresser, as the Whig Bank candidate for the Assembly, and permit him to run as a volunteer candidate, for that is the only way we can deceive the stubborn democrats, and get them to vote for him. Resolved, That we are in favor of Henry Clay, because he is in favor of a United States Bank, and that the currency can only be regulated by such an institution.
