ed the Convention for the unlookcd for
honor they had conferred upon him, and
would endeavor to the best of his ability

principles were almost entirely unknown.

lution, which was adopted:

lore declared the Democratic candidate for

Mr. Broadhcad moved that the conven
tion accord to Mr. Gamble the unanimous
nomination, agreed to.
The Committee appointed to report res
olutions expressive of the sentiments of
the Democratic Convention, respectfully
report the following:
Resolved, That with struggling freedom
everywhere, the sympathies of the Demo
cratic party keep watchful company
wheresoever the people arc lifting up their
voices in a manly snout tor independence,
we here on the declaration day of our own
give them back for answer the full utter
ance of the heart's best hope, that God's
blessing will smile upon their perils, and
give them in ail time to come a clay like
this.
Resolved, That it is our duty to watch
with a jealous eye, our own liberties and
to resist early and always, every encroach
ment upon the general right of the people.
We regard with serious alarm, the power
which corporate associations arc daily
stealing from the many to the few.
Resolved, I hat prodigal grants to spe
cial privileges, we will dispute forever.
lvo new uanu; nor any recliartcr, without
stringent individual liability: and cverv
possible restraint the law can lay on bank-
ng corporations, we hold to be an lmpcra
ivc necessity of the times. There is no
safety, and can be none, except in a firm
and faithful adherence to the specie basis.
Jicsolved, 1 hat the interest and rights
of labor it is but just to defend. The labor
of the country is the wealth of the country
and the impulse of her progress and pros
perity. Resolved, That the Ten Hour law,
without proviso, amendment or appendage
to defeat its operation, is a measure that
commands our cordial and unchanging
support.
Resolved, That shmplasters, issued by
municipal or other corporations, we de
nounce as false representatives of money,
by which labor is defrauded of its just re
ward. And all schemes of relief issues,
being but printed confessions of insolven
cy, put upon the people as current equiv
alents for industry, we regard as wot thy of
signal condemnation. I he Democratic
party, if it is honest, confesses its poverty,
but repudiates rags.
Resolved, That all power should re
main with and be wielded by the people,
except, where for concentration and con
venience, it is necessary to confide the
same to agents. Wp approve not only ol
an elective Judiciary, but ofr electing all
public servants by the people who are
fully competent themselves to do what
they employ others to do.
Resolved, That the Democratic 1'arty
adheres now as it ever has done, to the
constitution of the country. Its letter and
spirit they will neither weaken nor de
stroy; and they re-declare that slavery is
a domestic local institution of the South,
subject to state law alone and with which
the general government has nothing to do.
Wherever the State law extends us juris
diction the local institution can continue to
exist. Esteeming it a violation of State
rights to carry it beyond State limits.
We deny the power of any citizen to ex
tend the area of bondage, beyond its pres
ent dominion, nor do wc consider it a
part of the compromise of the constitution,
that slavery should forever travel with the
advancing column of our territorial pro
gress. Resolved, That John A. Gamble is a
genuine representative of the democracy of
Pennsylvania simple in his habits, strict-
ly republican in ait nis ieenngs ana prin
ciples, honest and faithful in the discharge
of all his duties possessing as he docs, in
an eminent decree a sound and correct
judgment and a familiar acquaintance with
the interests and capabilities of the State,
wc confidently present him to the people
of this eommon wealth as a suitable person
for the office of Canal Commissioner.
On motiou adjourned till 3" o'clock.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
The Convention assembled at 3 o'clock,
and was called to order by the Chairman.
The consideration of the resolutions
offered by the committee, was resumed.
The discussion was continued by
Messrs. Whalon, Snodgrass, Itccd and
CotTroth.
The Resolution relatiug to slavery was
unanimously adopted.
The resolutions oflered by the Com
mittee were all adopted.
At the request of Col. Black, Mr. Gam
ble was permitted to make a statement.
Mr. Gamble said Mr. President: I un
derstand to-day that a charge has been
brought against me that in 184G I opposed
the election of Wm. B. Foster for Canal
Commissioner. The charge is entirely
false. Mr. Foster received my most ar
dent support. I attended the Convention
in mv County, and through my exertions,
a delegate was elected fav orable to the nom
ination of Mr. Foster. After his nomina
tion 1 used every exertion to secure his
election. About a week before the elec
tion business called me to New York and
I was unable to return in time to vote for
him as I most certainly would have done.
This is a plain statement of the facts, and
if the Convention desires anything more,
I would remark, that a delegate present
has in his possession a letter from my
neighborMr. Crane, who is a relative of
Mr. Foster, which will completely refute
the charge of my want of fidelity to my
party.
The Convention were satisfied with the
statement of Mr. Gamble, and greeted his
remarks with three cheers.
The following resolution, oflered by
Mr Young, was adopted.
Resolved, That this Convention deem
it their duty at this time to express their
disapprobation and detestation of the bar
barous law now upon our National statute
Book, authorizing the flogging of Ameri
can Seamen on Ship-board, viewing it as
repugnant not to humanity but to every
principle of republicanism and justice.
The following resolution oflered by Mr.
Derr, was adopted:
Resolved, That the distinct and em
phatic pledge and promise made before
the late .Governor's elections by the party
now in power to perfect, in this State, the
Ten Hour Factory Law, and the elevation
of the laboring class, has been shamefully
violated, for when ample opportunity pre
sented itself during the last session of the
Legislature, they refused to repeal the ob
noxious proviso attached to the Bill by the
present Qhief Executive.
Mr. Mercur oflered the following reso
lution, which was adopted:
Resolved, I hat the practical workings
of the present revenue laws, clearly de
monstrate their superiority over those
which immediately proceeded them. Thus
proving that that which was logical in ar
gument, is sound in principle, and practi
cal in its effects. All systems which give
bounties to particular interests to the detri
ment of the great industrial classes of the
Country which seeks to aggrandize the
few at the expense of the many, are a clear
violation of those principles of democracy
which proclaims to all equality of rights.
On moiion of Mr. Cessna, the C onven
tion adjourned sine die.
ARRIVAL OF THE
STEAMSHIP CANADA.
SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.
IIIE FRENCH REPORTED IN ROME.
INSURRECTION A T LYONS.
MORE BATTLES IN HUNGARY AND
AUSTRIA.
Tel. Office, Boston July 5.
The Steamship Canada, Capt. Judkins,
from Liverpool, 23d ult., arrived at Hali
fax on the 3d inst., at 8 o'clock, A. M.
She left at 12 M., and arrived at this port
at 6. 30 yesterday, P. M.
She lias 91 passengers, among them
Capt. L. B. Palta, late of the Steamship
United States.
From England there is nothing of in-
tcrest.
ITALY.
The French not yet in Rome.
Up to the evening of the 21st ult., no
news had been received in Paris of the
entry of the French troops in Rome. Gen.
Oudinot would not make a general attack
before the lGth or 17th, when the news
of the failure of the conspiracy in France
would reach thafplacc, and would prooa-
bly induce the Triumvirate to capitulate.
The London Clobe ol the 22d, 1. 31.,
says it is generally thought that the Tele
graph will to-morrow announce the capit
ulation of Rome.
Later from Rome.
The news to the 18th ult., up to which
time the Romans had maintained their po
sition.
The French used cajolery and threats,
but the Romans .sternly resisted all these
advances, and in the most dignified manner
refused ' to yield to the summons to sur
render issued by Gen. Oudinot.
On the 1 1 th, a breach was effected in
the walls by the French, and a portion of
their troops entered the city. This re
p'ort, which was given out by the French,
led to the belief ihat the struggle was over,
but the-fact appeals that on the 12th, Gen.
Oudinot issued a letter to the Triumvirs,
making a last appeal to ihem, and endea
voring to throw upon them the responsi
bility of the effusion of blood consequent
upon an assault m the event of their re
fusal.
Latest The French in Rome.
The Gazette of Lyons of the 20th ult.,
states that a lelegraph despatch from
Marseilles, has been received as they were
going to press, announcing to the Perfect
thc,entry of the rrench into Rome.
v- FRANCE.
Insurrection at Lyons.
The attempted insurrection in Paris,
has been followed by a more formidable
resistance to the laws of Lyons. A sen
ous engagement tooH place in the streets
ot that city between the troops and the
mob, in the course of which a considerable
number of lives were lost on both sides
liirrlidp were thrown up winch were
irt i-.iL-r! awav until thev had been bat
"--j - j
tered down bv the cannons.
The nVhtinrr commenced on the morn
inr nf thn 1 Sill and continued till a late
hour in the night; but a telegraph despatch
dated Lyons the lClh at 9 o clock,P. Al.
annonnens that the insurgents had been
completely routed, the streets cleared and
the city restored to tranquility. There
am iinw.nnls of fSO.000 troops in and
around Lyons. There was no apprehen
sion of any further disturbances.
The late Conspiracy.
Great excitement existed in different
places, and it is evident that the conspiracy
of the Red Republicans extended not only
to every department of France, but to
every town. It appears to be the general
opinion that the failure ot the conspiracy
of the 13th of June, 1819, is a greater
blow to the Red Republicans than even
that of June, 1818.
An attempt was made to get up a dis
turbance at Marseilles, but it totally iailed.
A regiment of cavalry set all right without
a blow being struek.
Important Rumor.
It is reported that Abbe 1'alootk, pri
vate secretary to the Cardinal Antoilli has
arrived in Paris from Gaeta, and that he
is the bearer of important despatches for
the rrench Government, and also of an
eutograph letter from His Holiness to
Louis Napoleon, expressive of his rcjiret
at the bombardment ot Rome.
HUNGARY AND AUSTRIA,
More Contradictory Rumors.
The news is contradictory; some ac
counts irivniff the advantage to the Aus-
trians. In the South, two actions have
happened, giving the advantage to the Aus
trians. The Hungarian General Perezet,
from the fortress of Pcterwaradin, made
an attack on some Austrian entrenchments,
but was ultimately repulsed and driven,
with loss, into Peterwardam, though the
Austrians admit that their own troops suff
ered severely.
I he other battle was fought by Baron
Jellacliich, and it is asserted to have been
a brilliant victory, but the Austrian accounts
were evidently not trustworthy at least
as regards their own losses.
A Great Battle.
The London Globe, of the evening of
the 22d, says we have intelligence from
Vienna to June lGth. I he great news is
1 " . 1 .1 "W T
a tremendous encounter with the Hunga
rians. The Austrians and Russians are
said to have been completely defeated, and
to have left on the field the fabulous num
ber of 23,000 killed.
This battle took place on the 13th and
1 5th, on the large plain between Raab and
Wicselburg. It lasted 64 hours. The
loss of the Magyars is stated at 8000. The
Austrians were commanded by Ilaynau,:
the Russians by Rudiger, and the Hunga-j
rians, by Gorgey.
Although the news is up to the 13th, re
port of this battle has been received in pri
vate letters. Singularly enough no papers
allude to it.
The "Lloyd's" of Vienna contains not
the most distant allusion to it, and another
affair which must not be confounded with
the above is mentioned as having occurred
at Cyona.
A brigade "was sent by Schlick from
Oldenburg, under Gen. Wyss, in that di
rection. Gan. W. was taken prisoner,
and Col. Baron Gessncr killed. Schlick
sent out this brigade to cover his left flank.
As he was marching to Raab, it was bea
ten on the 13ih ult.
Some reports represent this whole bri
gade as having been destroyed. They
say that Lcvo s men have deserted them
en masse from Schlick to the Magyars.
What is certain carts for wounded for three
days, have been continually pouring into
Presburg and the places about. A fresh
recruitment throughout all Austria is in
tended. Letters from Oldenburg state that a cer
tain Count, Imperial Chamberlain, and
others, in whose possession a number of
passports of the Rebel party have been
found, have been arrested.
The only mention, or rather allusion
which can be gleaned from Vienna papers
with regard to a great battle reported is in
the above.
Private letters say that the battle said to
have taken place near Raab, is surmise,
and that the defeat of the Wyss brigade has
given origin to the fabulous rumors.
On the other the authorities maintain
that the route of Wyss was only an epi
sode of the other battle.
Still Another Battle.
A letter of the 13th ult., from Cracow
in the Breslau Gazette, mentions an affair
between the vanguard of the Magyars and
the Russians within the Gallician frontier,
at Jordanow. The Russian Colonel
Magdcn was killed. Two hundred Coss
acks were cut off and taken prisoners.
Another letter of the 15th from Cracow
mentions a report of an engagement at
English Pass, between the advanced guard
of the Russians, and Bern, with a force
numbering 0000, was beaten.
Remains of Gen. Worths Arrangcmoals
have been. made by the New York Common
Council, for the purpose of conveying theio.
mains of Gen . Worth to his native State for
interment.

journal of every thing that fell under his no-1
