The Leo d' Italia of March 19 learns from good authority, which it is not allowed to name, that the Hungarian patriot Kossuth passed through France, with the consent and connivance of the Erench Government, and arrired incognito at Genoa. .It is supposed that he will place himself at the head of the Ilitnprian soldiers now in Lombardy. It is a well known fact that during the last ten years Kossuth has been studying military seisms. A New 'Lark morning paper says: "With in one week we have had but five murders, three rapes, eight suicides, forty-two burglar ies, one hundred and twenty-two ordinary robberies and not more than five hundred / seesult and batteries." The Guy. of New Jersey has offered a ;sot ward of $5OO for th a wcat Warm cn death of his ;rile by poison. The New Orleans Della gives the follow ing extraordinary occurrence: On Monday, the day after the Princess disaster, an infant, about seven months old, was picked up in the river, at Mr. Peniston's plantation,below the scene of the explosion, floating with a fife preserver made fast to it. It was alive, and is now in a healthy condition, having bean delivered to its mother. About $42,000,000 were appropriated by the late Congress for the support of the GOT orament fur the present year. On Saturday morning week, a freight en., gine, on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad, blew up, near Elkton, l Md., killing the engineer, Mr. Hall, a native of Littleton, Mass., and the fireman, belong- 1 1 lag to Cheater.. In addition to the above, we have another railroad accident, more serious in its results, I to chronicle. The express train on the Great - Western railroad ran off the track near Ham- Mon, Michigan, on Friday night week, kill. hag four or five persons, and demolishing the engine and several of the ears attached. A gentleman in Cincinnati, a few days since, emptied his pockets of a parcel of let- i tens and papers which he had accumulated there sad burnt them. The next morning be discovered that among them was one con- Mining $5OO in bills which ho had intended' for the mail. It having been charged that Ex-President Pierce, now absent in Europe, was anxious ; to secure the Democratic nomination for the next Presidency, he has written a letter to a' friend in Boston, in which he declares that , i under no possible circumstances will he again permit the use of his name in connection with any public office.

The ticket i nominated is an ev•ellent one, and Cann.' fail of giving univ,.r,al satisfaction. We' ' may say, without a particle of exaemeration, that better candidates, both as regards char avter and qualifications, were never presented to the suffrage of the people by any party. Mr. Wright, our candidate for Auditor' General, is a native of Philadelphia, and a resident of e hat was the borou ; .,-11 of Freak ford under thu old municipal dilision of the c,eenty. He has Rental IT seven years in the State Legislature—four as a member of the Ilouse (the last as Speaker of that body,) and three as a Senator. During this lung term of public sersice, he hew 1;;,..).ne per fectly familiar with the affairs of our State government, in all their multitudinous de tails, and has earned fur himself a reputation for honesty, fidelity, and conscientious devo tion to Democratic principles, of which any pnblic man night well be proud. Mr. Wright plsse.ses all the qualifications that aro so essential to the important position of the chief of the Areounting Department of our Government. Ile has capacity, experi ence, and above all, that fearleas integrity of character e hieli inures an adherence to the i•triet line of duty under all ':'rcatuitances and in every emergency. In short, he is a man whum the pia.ple eau th•pend upon, and to wheat tney may e..t:ust their affairs in the taunt implicit confidence. If qualifications so requisite in all public servants, are yet, estimated at their proper value, he will Ise elected by a triumphant majority. Maj. Rowe, our candidate for Surveyor General, is a resident of Franklin county.— He is already well known to the people of the State, having been elected to this office in 1856. The fidelity and efficiency with which he has discharged his public duties, have earned for him the unlimited ounfidence and respect of all partial. Ilia nomination fora second term, is the beatpossible eudoree mint that the temocracy of Pennsylvania Could give him, and his past muse is an earnest of what may be expected of him in the future. The people will hardly consent to a change which will deprive themselves of the tried services of so valuable an officer. The Convention, as will be seen, repudiat ed the State Administration, by the decisive vote of 84 to 37. We would have been bet ter pleased had no such vote been taken.— For the sake of conciliation and peace, we would have preferred to see the question of endorsing Governor Packer waived fur the present, so that he might have had an op portunity, if so disposed, to retrace his steps, and repair the damage his factious merge has inflicted upon the organisation of the Dema credo party in Pennsylvania. But as the test was presented by one of his own friends, in the face of an unmistakable sentiment against him, it had to be met boldly, and in such a way as to involve no compromise of principle. or of fealty to party discipline and ' party usage. The Governor has only him self to blame for the sentence of condemna tion which has been passed upon him. His own acts have provoked it. Nominated and elected by the votes of an united Democracy, they hid a right to expect of him a faithful adhesion to the party. and an ardent direc tion of the influence of his administration to ward maiktaining unity of feeling and har mony of action among its members. But ho chose to make a troublesome national ques tion—with which, as a State Executive, he had no concern—the pretext fur arraying himself against the great majority of his litical friends, and for enc °raging the disor -Iganisation sea uivisiQn in oar ranks whicli have conspired to bring about our recent de feata, At the last general election, in par two or three honorable exception'', were found arrayed in open hostility to the rettilar nom inees of the party , and in many instances, in union with the Opposition which defeated them. If these acts were not advised and sanctioned by the Executive, they at least were quietly acquiesced in by him; and it is an established rule of ethics, that when a man permits to be done what he has the power to prevent, he is justly chargeable with its results. If the existence of the Democratic party is to be preserved, it must purge itself of all the factions and turbulent elements which have been too long suffered to distract its councils and impair the u/ity in which alone its strength cunsists. Bltter to meet defeat boldly, with its organisation intact, than to purchase a questionable as cendency by yielding to those who bare shown, by their previous acts, that they are ready to betray the party into the hands of the enemy whenever their own selfish inter -11 este happen to be thwarted. —This emphatic rebuke will net be relish ed by Governor Packer and his mutinous ad. Lerents. But the honest and true Democra cy of the Commonwealth, in whom, after all, is our only reliable hope of future success, will approve it. Prom the Pireneylranian. The Damoeratio State Convention. The Democratic State Convention which assembled at Ilarrisburg on the 16th, was undoubtedly one of the most important ever held in this Commonwealth. it was com posed of tried and approved party men from all sections of the State, men who are Demo crats not from a desire to bask in the sun shine of that success which with brief inter vale has attended the party, since the organ ization of this Government—but because they believe the principles of the Democratic organization to be essential to the Union of , the Statesand the prosperity of each separate member of th,.. Confederacy. These men ac cepted the agency of their districts from a conviction that bold, upright, fearless party action was necell-ary to meet the eircurn+tan ees which surround the Democracy of Penn sylvania at this time. They saw the danger which threatened the unity of the Democracy if designing ere longer allowed to mit,- lead the unthinie g by advocating the prin ciples of the Op ition and supporting their tickets while wearing the garb of party men and holding places obtained by Democratic votes and influence. Pennsylvania, old staunch Democratic Pennsylvania, was being scandalized by the action of those who rep resented her bemocracy in other sections of Lhe Union. while at the same time these men were plotting against the Natiobal Adminis tration, and thus giving (LW, and comfort to the enemy. These facts stared all true par ty men in the face. They demanded action. Either the party must be purified by repudi ating the corrupt and dishonest schemers, or fall into their tracks, suffer an ignominious and deserved defeat at home, and forfeit that proud position which the Democracy of the old Keystone have always occupied in the National councils of the party. When this ides was fairly presented to the Democracy, there was no hesitancy as to the courvie aeoessary to be pursued. There was scarce ly a district which did not at onoe declare r tie party and the National Adminiatm ties, and the prseeedingsof the Convention del:yenta - rate with what singular unanimity Democratic tlen tim ent was expressed from all sections of the State. There was no attempt on the part of the National Democracy to re vive decided issues. They did not seek to os tracise men who had differed with their politi cal brothers within the lines of party lentils( and party oclioa. They did not wi th hold the hand of fellowship from such as hadcontend ed with honest zeal before nomination:, but fought the common enemy after. The party did not do this in the &Sic Convention.— But they . did what was right and proper, what the Democracy demanded. should be done. They repudiated those men who acted with the common enemy. who spoke at Black Repailliesu meetings, and who used official' nosition for - corrupt and sellisk parpmea. TheDean:sae Convention did these things. sad Is soloing ropresealed meet feritbroHy the erids and demand of time party in Demo erotic Pennsylvania. * • s ~+C-+.w!~+a 4 rweohition was presesteikeetiorsipg the State *olio?' of Governor Packer, which gave rise to isonsiderable dismission.

The course of his Attorney General, Kilos, was expressly re pudiate 1 by the delegate who offered the resolution. The majority, however, c•isl,l see neither policy nor propriety in giving any such etpression of opinion as proposed by the rcsoluti ,n. The Governor must be !onkel upon as haying voluntarily arrayed himself, like McKean and Shultze, apittst the party w inch eleetel him.

And, moreover, he has Wien his sanction to acts clearly prejudicial to the interests of the Commonwealth and her citi- 1:1112 Although-there spnenr to have been thir ty-seven of the Convention who were willing, as a matter of supposed policy, to vote for the resolution of endorsement, it is well un• derstoud that, scarcely a man of them has any confidence whatever in the Governor, either as an ofteer or a Dentoerat. They, with all ri v men, ilfor. him as haying plaocd h:in‘ell with Knox, 11 icktuan, Fort.ey & Co., outside the Democratic otganization, and as ready to approve any kind of fegibhi thin that ho tasty believe calculated to advance the interests of the speculating crowd with whom he is known to ho associate 1. Under the circumstances of the cave. we cannot but think that the Convention act ed wisely in this matter. It was not a ques tion of Leoomptonisin and Anti-Lccumpton bn. That issue is dead and gone. and Dem ocrats overywLtr.i are disposod so to regard and treat it. The Convention, in passing over in silence the State Adininistration, acted in a spirit of harmony and conciliation, not expretsire4 any opinion as to by-gone action, and allowing the Governor to wake up a fresh and better record fur himself. If he really was mistaken and misled by his friends, as his advocates desired the Ounven- Lien to believe. he has now an opportunity to show this by deeds. We would bo exceed ingly gratified if the action to which the Co nvent ion h.tit !peen very unwillingly led, should end in such a reault. Jaw Buchanan Vivu licated by the Deaux , lof Pennsy/ounia!—ln another column 1 . :.17 be found the resolutions adopted by the late Democratic State Oonvention. They are eminently and thoroughly national in their character, and gloriously vindicate the wire and patriotic policy ofJames Buchanan. The resolutions are well written. and decided in their tone and character. Speaking, as they do, the honest sentiments of the true Democracy of Pennsylvania, they exhibit the earnest and unfaltering devotion which ex ists in the hearts of the people of his native Cominona-milth, to the great and good man who now occupies the Presidential chair.— For months past efforts hate been made to rob him of his well-earned fame. Ins policy has been grossly misrepresented, his puldic acts have been ruthlessly assailed, and his private motives have boon shamefully im pugned. With a malignity unpa.-alelled in the history of partisan rancor, the Opposi tion have attempted to destroy hit position EV a statesman and his chartictee as a man.— But it has all been in vela. The recent Con vention repelled the assaults, at.d sternly re sented the insults; and one was clearly demonstratal by that body—a fact that should be well and carefully pondered upon Otearll -1 6111011 BUCIIIII2/%11. which perfidy cannot shake, nor falsehood steal away. • • • This Convention will teach a wholesome lesson, in all time to come, to those in place and power. Had Governor Pucker properly rebuked the unpardonable treason of his At torney General, when he preached disorgani sation to the Democrats of Chester, he would not now be left naked to his enemies. "There was the weight that pulled him down." It was "a blunder, worse than a crime," not to set openly and fearlessly his mark of disap probation upon the unwarrantable course of the man he had taken into his counsels. No one is too high to escape the evil which re sults from a contact with bad advisers. The stream will not remain pure. if the waters flowing into it are poisoned. Th e Convention over, it now becomes the duty of over; true Democrat to rally round his party standard. A deeperato attempt will be made to defeat' u.B at the nest election. The recruiter will be sent forth by the Opposition to steal from our ranks the weak and wavering. A victo r in October next, they proclaim, will be a vustory in 1830. TREY xarr as POILta I We had Waterloo lees year—let us show them Buena Vista, when wo meet them again in battle. /me the haslet' Register. serWe were present during the entire deliberations of the Convention, and can safe ly say that Gov. Packer's administration had hut very few friends in that Convention, and that the Governor has lost the confidence and frendstdp of the Democratic party. The causes which produced this result, when at tributed to his Leconspfon view, is an unmit igated falsehood. Rend the proceedings of the Convention and you cannot find one word to warrant such a conclusion. Consult the majority of his appointments, some of his offi cial acts, the company that he is found in, and the character of the men who delight to do him honor, and you hale the cause. They arc such di-tin4uishe.l political traitors as Attorney General Knox, Ihneline and John W. Forimy—a 1/1411 whose very breath is po lutiun to the cause of Democracy. These, sirs, arc some—we might sat—of his daily advisers and companions. Could the Demo cratic party reasonably expect any whole some admonitions from such putrid sources? The answer is an emphatic no! Let them go their own way, and as for the Democratic party when relieve-I of their presence and their dead will like a young tree when lopped of its dead and fruitless branches, gather renewed strength by being freed from all that which before hindered its growth. ga—Mr. 11.inaghan made the charge In open Convention that Gov. Packer accepted two hundred and twenty-five thousand dol lars lens for the Delaware Division of the State Canals than he could have had fur it, and that the bid was made to tho Governor whilst the door to take it was still open. The charge was not denied. Adopted by the recent Democratic State Convention are received with high favor by the Democratic press of the State.

From this Cif, which is the head-quarters of the con spirator-, there is quite an array of names Among them stands John W.

Da vid Webster alto signs this "call." Mr. W ch oler has acted with the Opposition for years, and last fall was etpeeially active agaisst the whole Democrat:o Tisket. Voted against Mayor Vaux. E. G.

J.

George W. Pearce, W. A. AlLioro, M. Ellis and Samuel Ring wait did the same thing. 'Joseph R. Morris and 11. B.

The list of Berke county names attached to this 'Call" is well worthy the ottentiun of Democrats.

IVe might extend our notice of the men a ho figure in this "Call," but that is nut necessa ry. Thuee gibbeted are fair samples of their comrades. None of them are reliable party men. This is net their maiden effort in the line of infidelity to the usages of the party. They have aided the enemy before, if not by direct votes by side-door operations—sad their object is now to duplicate their former actions. But the effort to dignify this party movement with the name of a Democratic State Conventioe is ridiculous. It has none of the elements of a Convention of the Demo cratic party. It is called by those who are and have been in open aUtagouism . to the principles, usages and candidates of the Dem ocracy not only in this State but in the Nee don. It is intended to benefit the Black Re publican party, by misleading, if possible, some poruon of the Democracy of Pennsylva nia. But the intent of its leaders will not be realised. The party men of the old Keystone will not follow the recruiting officers of the Opposition into the camp. They know that any movement beaded by Perney, Knox, Rickman, latuman, and their familiars, is not honest, does not mean good for the Demo cratic pry, and hence they will repudiate both the men and their *Mots.

To show how utterly groundless is the charge which Forney and the rest of tee Opposition editor, make, that Lecomptonism controlled the recent Democratic State Convention, we quote the following from the Pennsylvanian, for ; the entire correctness of which we unhesita tingly vouch : "In the Platform of Resolutions reported by the Committee to the Convention, and adopted WITHOUT A DISSENTING VOICE by that body, containing one hundred and thirty-three members,and representing the County Conven tions respectively of every county in the State, nothing whatever was said for or against Ouv. Packer. It was found to be utterly intpusi•ohle, without the slightest reference to any supposed principle involved in the Lecomptou controver sy, to bring a majority of the Delegates to the point of consenting to endorse his course and conduct. Consequently, it was thought best to say nothing whatever about him. hating him a chance in the future to retrieve himself. But I after the passage of the resolutions, a member adios Convention, first apologising for certain I indefensible conduct of the Govcruor's, ()tiered ! a general resolution is his behalf, on which a ballot was taken. On this vote, by yeas and nays, thirty-seven persons voted for the resolu tion, and of they, a majority trete what have Leese called Lecoosatoa Democrats Of the tiro omi urea for the post of Auditor General, the one, Itichardion L. Wright, was what has been call ed a Lecomptonite, the other, Jacob Ziegler, was what has been known as an Anti-Lecom p ton it e. Now, of the twenty -seven votes receiv ed by lir. Ziegler, a aurjority were votes have been called Leeraapias sun, and of the votes received be lt N re who received the compliment of a unanimous nominatiou, was either uncommitted on the question, or else was possessed at one time with the Anti-Lecompton view of the old (dead) Le compton issue." Turney, of Westmoreland, one of the two Anti-Lecpmpton Democratic State Senators, and who was a member of the Convention, vo ted astliart , the resolution proposing to endorse Gov. Packer 1 gerin the recent Democratic State-Conten tion, Henry J. Myers voted for Rivlutrdson h. Wright for Auditor beneral, and H. J. Stehle for Jacob Ziegler. On the resolution to endorse Gov. Packer, both voted in the negative— though they preferred that no resolution in re gard to him be introduced. But the question once up, and exposures made, they saw but one course to pursue. serGreeky's TrZuste appears to sympa thise deeply with the Pennsylvania.' !togas" Conventionists, and seems to think that Packer may be a proper man fur a Pet.ples' candidate fen.
