""WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY, 13, 18C1.
i Od last Tuesday, Mr. Abbott of Philadel
phia, introduced into the Ilouse of Itepresen-J
J tatives, a bill for the commutation of the tax
i on the tonnajra of the Pennsylvania R Road,
i ? .....
It is quite a literary curiosity, and evidently
was not intended by its author to be as clear
as the eud at noon-day. We have not time
thid week to notice a few of its prominent fea
tures, but will probably do ho in our next
issue. Queen Catharino said of Cardinal Wol
sey, that his. promises were mighty, but his
performance nothing, and so it will turnout
in the present case with the Pennsylvania
Kail Road Company, if they should succeed
in forcing this bill throrsgh the Legislature.

ent this benatonal district in the otato Con

On motion of C. D. Murray it was tfhani

The Democratic State Executive Commit
tee of Pennsylvania, at a meeting held in the
city of Ilarrisburg, on the 30th ultimo, una
iiiiously resolved to elicit the views of the
"Old Keystone" ia reference to the present
terrible crisis of our National affairs.
The failure of the Republican party to meet
in a proper spirit of concession and compro
mise, the overtures made for the adjustment
of our National difficulties, rcnders.it necessa
ry that the united Democracy of this.Commou
wcaith should take prompt, decided and en
ergetic action on the premises,
We are in the midst of a revolution brought
about by the teachings of an Anti-Constitutional
party, a party sectional in ita princi
ples. Six of our sister sovereign States have
already withdrawn from the Federal Union,
and others threaten speedily to follow. The
Democratic party, ever faithful to the Con
stitution and the laws, seriously deprecates
this deplorable condition of our common and
ncioved country. The peril new lmpetsding
is the natural result of a departure from the
true Constitutional doctrines steadfastly main
tained by the Democratic organization tor
the past sixty years, and can only be remo
ved by the re-establishment of those ancisnt
and time honored principles. It i3 not ne
cessary to recall the glories of the past it is
only necessary to oe reminded or the dangers
of the present. U hatevcr u:e future may
have in store for the American people wheth
cr peace shall - continue within our borders.
or our land be rent with fraternal frtrife it
now becomes the solemn and imperative duty
of tbe Democratic nartv. the only true con
servator of the Union, the Constitution, and
'the coualitv of the States," to cive a full
expression of opinion upon the dangers which
threaten Constitutional lioerty, and menace
the rigbt3 of all the States of this confederacy.
Therefore, iu accordance vsith the unanimous
recommeodatiuu of the Democratic State Lx
ecutive Committee, the Democracy of Penn
sylvania are earnestly invited to tend three
delegates for each Senatoi, and three delegates
for each Representative, to bo ciioseu in such
manner and at such time as may be deemed
proper, to meet iu general State Convention
at Ilarrisbnrg, at three o'clock p. ra., on
Thursday, the 2st day r,f lbruary A. L.,
1S01. to take into consideration the present
distracted and divided state of the country,
"to restrain threatened sectional violence,
and to aid in ro-constructing the federative
system on a basis of perpetuity."

a Convention, in the manner directed in the

dedly the roughest and coldest day we have
encountered this winter. The piercing north

travel even a snort distance, and drifted the
Xs?"Altiicugh many of the Southern States
are opposed to secession, they are all unani
mously cp posed to coercion. While they
think the seceding States have acted rsshly.
they'vbeliev3 that the grievances of which
thsy complain are teal and not imaginary,
nd tbey will not calmly stand by and see
them compeiied tt the point of the bayonet
to remain in the Union. The Ortt blow
struck in the effort to cccrce the seceding
States, would be the signal for the seccssicn
of the border States Round together by a
tie of common interest and fraternal love,
they would at once become a Southern Con
federacy, to which ia the darkest hour of at
tempted, coercion it might truly be Eail,
Thy chains as they rankle, thy blood as it
runs,
Rut make tho more painfully dear to thy
sons !
Whose hearts like the Young of the desert
bird's nest,
Diink love in each life drop thot flows from
thy breast."
So self evident is thip, that even Senator
Seward, the father of Rlack Republicanism,
acknowledges that the Union cannot be saved
bj coercion, and Senator Cameron openly de
clares himself in favor of the Riglcr Compro
mise. Indeed the Republicans of tho Hale
and LV-yd Garriscn School, are cow the enly
advocates of coercion. Tho demagegue,
Williams, who for years has beea endeavor
ing to incite the people cf Alleghany county
to resist tbe execution of important dcerees of
tbe Supreme Court, is the eloquent advocate
of coercion in the State Legislature. A pret
ty individual truly, to denounce rebellion,
and advocate law and order. He evidently
tioe not see himself as others see him.
