Wethe delegates of the Democratic party of Penn sylvania, in General State Convention assembled for the nomination of a candidate for Judge of the Su preme Court, profoundly grateful lo the Supreme Ruler ot the Universe lor the return of peace to our beloved country, but deeply anxious on account of the trials end delays which impede the complete res toration and reunion of all the States, and apprecia ting tho dangers wh'eh still threaten the safety of onr political institutions, and the future peace, lib erty and prosperity of the people Rttohtd, 1. That we steadfastly adhere to the principles ot civil government established by the founders of the Union, and tn the present conflict of legislative usurpation with constitutional law, we esteem a wise, upright, and fearless judiciary the great bulwark of public liberty and individual right. 2. That the Union of the States is perpetual, and the Federal government supreme within its conatitu tionai limits. 3 That representation In the Congress of the United States and in the Eiectorial College is a right, fundamental and indestructible in its nature, and abiding in every State, being a duty as well as n right pertaining to the people in every State, and essential to our republican system of government.— Its denial is the destruction of the government it 4. Eai"h State having, aider the Constitution.the exclusive right to prescribe the qualifications of its own electors, we proclaim as a usurpation and an outrage the establishment ot negro suffrage in any of the States by the coercive exercise of federal pow er, and we shall result to the last resort to# threat ened measures of the lenders of the Republican par ty to interfere by act of Congress with the regula tion of the elective franchise in tbe State of Penn sylvania. 5. We are opposed to any amendment of the Con stitution of tbis Stale giving to negroes the right of suffrage. 6 That the failure of the tariff bill in the last session of the late Congress, more than three-fourths of whose members belonged ot tbe Republican party, is an illustration of their infidelity to tbeir pledges and their neglect of their professions in relatien to the great industrial and financial interests of the conn ry. 7 That the Ra lieal majority in Congress, and those who sustain th-ra. have overthrown tbe Con stitution, dismembered tne Federal Union, and sub verted republican government by a long series of usurpations, among which are the following : Their denial of the right of States ot the Union to r- presentation in Congress. Their treatment of ten States as snbjugation prov ii ees, and governing them by military force in time of peace. Their enactment of laws denying indemnity for arrest and falsa imprisonments made without au thority of law. Their resistance of the authority of tbe civil tri bunals. and their overthrow by the substitution of military commissions for the trial of undefied of fenses. _ Tbeir efforts to destroy the Executive and Judi ciary departments ot the government, by threatened impeachment to control executive action and a pro jected "remodeling" of the Supreme Court of the United Stales le force obedience to Congressional mandates. Th*ir ejection from thtir seats in the Federal Sen ate and House of members dnlj and legally chosen. Their purpose of confiscation, as avowed by tha '' Republican leaders, in violation of tha Declaration of nights and other guarantees of Federal and State constitutions tending, as it does, to destroy all pro tection to private property, advances them far on the highroad to repudiation. 8. That a strict conformity, both by the Federal and State governments, by all powers, restrictions, and guarantees, ascsntained in the Constitution of the United States ; a rigid and wise economy in the administration of public affairs, and the election of capable, honest, and patriotic men to office, are measures absolutely necessary to restore public con fidence, to avert national bankruptcy, and to insure :he perpetuity of our free institutions. 9. Thnt the late Republican Legislature of this State has distinguished itself by the number of its unwise and unconstitutional enactments. Some of these laws have already ben judicially determined to be unconstitutional ; others are inexpedient, oppressive and fanatical, and the members who sus tained tbein should ba condemned by the people at the polls. 10. That the power and success of the Democratic party greatly depend on the character and efficiency ol its newspaper press and that to give due force to its usefulness, this Convention earnestly request that in every county all the members of the Dem ■- eralie party should make vigorous efforts to increase its circulation by giving it their individual patron age and support 11. That the Democracy of Pennsylvania by their representatives now assembled, hereby tender their ncknowleJgeincats and thanks to the Hou. George W. Woodward in bis retirement from the position of Chief Justice of this Commonwealth, for the pure nod faithful, and able manner ia which hr discharg ed the duties of that exalted position, 12. That the candidate we this day present to the people of Pennsylvania for a place on the Supreme Bench of the State, is, in all respects worthy of the von6dence ard si pport of all ho are in favor of au enlighened, faithful and imperial uduiistratiou of the I •v. The Radical State Convention. The Radical State Convention met at Williams port, on Wednesday the 29th ul timo, and after nine ballots, nominated Uekkt W. Williams, of Pittsburg, 9 the candidate of the party they represent, for Judge of the Supreme Court. The Read ing Gazette says : Mr. Willijins is a na tive of Connecticut, and was therefore preferred by the Radicals to \ Pennsylra nian-born candidate. He now holds the office of Associate Judge of the District Court of Allegheny county, and although said to be a fair lawyer, is so little known outside of that county, that even some of the papers of his own party are confound in* him with the Hon. Thomas Williams, the present member of Congress from that District. The resolutions of the Convention de nounce President Johnson • applaud Sher idan and Sicklpss for their despotic exer cise of military domination over the down trodden people of the South ; endorse the Reconstruction measures of Congscsg; mildly •'trust that such legislation will be secured at the earliest period as will af ford adequate protection to American in dustry," but are silent upon the subject of the corruptions of the last Legislature, and dodge the question of negro suffrage alto gether. •i" If Richmond the negro voters out numbered the white* five Hrrimri Tb (JalMt pKiflc Ball WtmL We hear a great deal about PACIFIC ; RAILROADS now A-DAJA, but we have rea- j son to think that tbey are not very pacific. The catting through the great gorges of the Sierra Nevada*, now finished, was done only after many combats with the solid rocks, and fighting Indians on the Platte, and thus clearing the track np to the Rocky Mountain, is certainly not the most patific business in the world. And yet, the building of this greatest line of railway ever known will bind the two sides of the continent closer together, and, like the electric wire, the iron track will help preserve the equilibrium between any storm clouds that may arise. East or West in the future. There are six railways call ed "Pacific," which deserve the title, from the fact that they are doing nothing, while there are two Companies which are con structing the only Great Pacaflc line across the continent. These are the Central Pa cific of California, which has 94 miles in operation, and ten thousand men at work building east from Sacramento; and the Union Pacific, chartered by act of Con gress, which is building west from Omaha, Nebraska. The Union and Central Pacif ic will meet and form but a single line.— The Union Pacific Company, Gen. Jobu A. Dix, President, and Ho.i. John J. Cisco, Treasurer, with a Board of Directors com posed of some of the most experienced railroad builders in the country, has an authorized capital of one hundred million dollars (of which five million dollars have been paid in on the work already done.) This Company has already expended over seventeen million dollars on the road, and has 400 miles in operation, and it is un der contract to be done to the eastern base of the Rocky Mountains, a distance of 517 miles, in September next. The energy with which the work has been pushed on, and the. amount already done, make us credit the estimate of the Company's engineers, that the Atlantic and Pacific will be united by rail in 1870. When this happy event takes place, there will be a grand re-union between the long- j separated parents and children ot our far East and farthest West, and the live Yankee may see the sun rise over Boston Light House, Monday morning, and set through the Gold -n Gate ot San Francis co on Saturday night. This great result will nut be accomplished without a liberal expenditure of money, although it is be lieved that about one hundred million dol lars will be sufficient for the purpose. Ot this sum, the U. S. Government advances Fifty million dollars in the U, S. Six per cent currency interest bonds, taking a sec ond lien upon the road for security. The interest on these bonds is paid out of the U. S. Treasury, and the Govtrnmcnt re serves one half the amount of the Company' 6 bills for transportation as a credit against tbis account. The Government permits the companies to issue their own First Mortgage Bonds to an equal amount, and also donates 12,800 acres of land per mile as additional aid, but as these lands will greatly increase in value as the road pio gresses, it is considered a wise policy to keep them out of market for the present, so as to obtain a better price at a futuae early day. The Union Pacific railroad has become so indispensable to the Government for the transportation of troops and stores to its forts in the mountains, and to £>sist in arresting Indian hostilities, that General Sherman, who commands the U. S. ftftres -in that region, says "that it could well af ford to build the whole line, and make money by tne operation." For this, as well as mote general reasons connected with the public welfare, Congress granted such liberal although necessary assistance as would ensure the speedy c -nipletion of the work. The fact that during the pres ent season the Union Pacific has laid down an average of nearly two miles of track per day, is evidence that the confidence of the Government in the Company has not been misplaced. But while liberal, the U. S. Government has takeu good care of its own interests. It issues its own bonds to the Company only as each section of twenty miles is com pleted, and then only after the Government Commissioners have carefully examined the work, and pronounced it first-class in every respect, and fully equipped with lo comotives, cars, etc-, an J ready for business On the first 517 miles—on the easy portion of the road—it issues its bonds only at the rate of $16,000 per mile, and on the more difficult portion at the rate ot $52,000 pbr mile; and for 150 miles ot the lioeky Mountain Region at the rate of $43,000 per rade. The Union Pacific Railroad Company is also restrained by its charter from issuing its First Mortgage Bouds ex cept as the work pi ogresses, and to the same amount on the various sections as are issued by the Government. The mort gage which secures the made to Hon. E. D. M trust es, who alone can issue the Bonds to the Company, and who are responsible for their issue in strict accordance with the terms of the law. The amount of the bonds is probably not more than one third, and is certainly not one half of the cost of the road. The only question of value that can then arise, is : Will the read do a paying business ? It is scarcely worth while to answer it seriously. Will the only railroad between the great Atlantic And Pacific States pay * Will the only road connecting the two sides of a country which now contains thiity-siz millions of people, pay ? Will the shortest transit line between Western Europe and China and Japan pay f Will a road that reduces the time sched ule between New York and San Fraucisco from twenty-two days to six, and reduces' the fare one-half, pay ? Will a road without competition, and that can charge its rates, and that must do all the transit business East and West for 36 States, pay? Will a road that is the only highway to all the immense mining regions of the Rocky Mountains, and over wbicn the con stantly increasing tide of emigration and business to these new ElDorados must go, payl #11! a road which takes across the plaice the freight that once required between thirty and forty thousand wagous in a sin gle season, pay f Might we not ask with more propriety: —How long will it be before a road doing such a business will reqoire a double track and was there not good reason for the re striction imposed by Congress, that when ever the company made more than ten per cent, on its capital, it should reduce its rates ? These questions certainly answer them selves, but a fact or two may be added, The Union Pacific Railroad has no present terminus. Its line i§ about two miles far ther west to-day than it was yesterday, and will be two miles farther to-morrow than 10-day; but notwithstanding this, its warehouses are running over with freight for the mines, the levee at Omaha is cover ed with it, and the Company's earnings for tbe month of May were officially re ported at $261.842, or enough to pay the interest on the bonds several times over in gold after ail expenses wore deducted, so that if not another mile of tbe road was ever built, the part now dote would constitute an ample security for the First Mortgage Bonds. We write freely of this Union Pacific Railroad, because wo consider it the great national undertaking of the time. It will be tbe longest line in the world; it also seems as it it would be the most profitable, and its completion will certainly be the be ginning of a new era in our national prog ress. Reconstruction. An Act supplementary to an Act entitled an Act to provide for tbe mote efficient government of the Rebel Stales, passed March 2d, 1867, and the Act supple mentary thereto, passed March 23d, 1867 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, that it is hereby declared to have been the true in tent and meaning of the Act of March 2d and March 23d, 1867, to which this Act is a supplement, that governments then •■xisting in the Rebel States of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Florida, Texas, and Arkansas, were illegal and void, and that thereafter said governments were to be continued subject in a!! re spects t<> the military commanders of the respective districts, and to the authority of Congress only. Section 5. And be it further enacted, that said acts to which this is a supple ment, shall be construed to authorize the officer assigned to the command of any military district under said acts, whenever he shall deem it neeessary to the due per formance of his duties under said act, to remove or suspend from office any muni cipal or State officer, or persons exercising authority under or by virtue of auy so-, called State Government existing in thi* dsstiict; and to appoint another person instead of rhe officer or person so removed, if he shall deem it proper so to do, and to authorize the officer assigned to the com mand of any military district under said acts, whenever he may deem it necessary as aforesaid, to prohibit, suspend or set aside, any act or proceeding of any such municipal government, or auy ! act or thing done under or by virtue of its J authority ; it being tbe intention of said ! act that, paring the continuance, said so called State Governments of the Rebel States Ml be allowed to continue only subordinate to, and subject to the offi cers assigned to the military district afore said respectively, and to Congress, and all acts heietofore done by any such officer in accordance herewith shall bo deemed valid. Section 3, relates to registration. Section 4. And be it further enacted, that no civil Court of the United States, or in any State, shall have jurisdiction of any action or proceeding, civil or criminal, against any such District Commander, oi any officer or person acting by this au thority, for or on account of any act done by him in his official capacity under this act, or under the act to which it i$ a snp pleiuentary, to wit, the named in the firt section of this act, and the act of March 23d, 1867, supplementary thereto. Section 5. And be if further enacted, That no District CornmanJer shall be re lieved from the command assigned to him under the aforesaid acts, unless tbe Sen ate shall have first advised and consented to his removal, or unless by sentence of Court-martial he shall be cashiered or dis missed from the army, or unless he sball consent to be so relieved. Who is Presldeut a! iiue United States 1 Certainly not Andrew Johnson. Be cause : Ist—The July session of Congress is con vened, not by ttie President, in the White House at Washington, hut by Thadd-jus Stevens, in Pennsylvania. Tiie Constitu tion 6sys the Presldeut 4 *ruay on extraordi nary occasions convene both houses —or ouc of them," but as the convening in this case is at the instance of Stevens, a good many people naturally enough, are conclu ding that ho must be President of the Uni ted States. 2nd. Others think it must he Secretary Stanton, seeing that it is to him, and not to Andrew Johnson, that soine of the South ern Caliphs are adiressing their edicts, re scripts, and communications. Thus to day, the telegraph tells us, that Secretary Stanton has refused to receive the resigna tion of General Sickles. Andrew Johuson is not permitted to have any voice in the matter. 3d. Possibly, hovever, both of these class's of persons maybe mistaken. The Exix-Meodines to the conviction that Gen. Sherioan is President. No man who is not persuaded that he is invested with su preme power , would have dared to write sueh a letter as he did the other day to General Grant, respecting the President's orders. j It may be, though, that the instead of being but one President, as prescribed by the constitution, we have now three or four •—the one having the least power and the least respect paid to him being the one who occupies the chair in wbiob Washington | sat. -N.

The following letter, written to bis moth er, by Squire Sampson, who, with Mr. Albert Towosend, recently returned from this place to Brazil—will be read with in terest by the friends of both these gen tlemen. STEAMER NORTH AMERICA, ) April 20th 1867. j DEAR MOTHER : We left New York on the 22d, and had a very pleasant passage indeed, to Ft. Thomas, where we arrived this morning at five o'clock. It is one of the West India Islands, and owued by the Danes, situated in North Latitude 18 dog., consequently very warm at this time of year, Townsend, Mr. Osborne (a Rio friend of mine.) and myself went ashore together. We began the day by making some few purchases, and we found every thing in the liue of clothing at a figure far below the prices at home. This results from its being a free port. After getting what we required at the stores, we found it would be policy to take our packages aboard the ship before taking a tramp about the town, (which we had previously decided upon.) We therefore returned to the ship, and at about 1 P. M. sallied out for a tour of the ♦own, We had heard, before arriving, thai in olden times this island bad been a resort for sea Pirates &c. Among whom it is said there existed a certain blue Beard and black Beard, whose castles still exist. The castle of Black Beard was situated upon the summit of a bluff, a little back of the town, and wo concluded to visit this as a beginning The sun was intensely hot, the themoractor run ning up to 104 ; consequently our progress up the hill was very slow. Wc found how ever, after getting well up that we were refreshed by a fine breeze, which made it at least tolerable. We found the old cas tle, which it is said has been standing sev eral huudrcd years. We asked permis sion to asscend the Tower, but was told that the stairs were so decayed that it was unsafe and would not be allowed to go up. I told the hoy (who haJ charge,) that we would look in. at the base, which he per mi;ted us to do. We took advantage of this, and after experimenting a little, we concluded to go up, which we finally did; although I assure you the stairs were but a honey comb, tbey had become so decay ed by age. Yet we succeeded without auy bad results. Ilad a view of the town and harbor —found the nsmes of mafly of our countrymen registered upon the ceiling, and of course added ours to the rest. After looking over this affair, we concluded to visit the castle of Rlue Beard, which is al so located upon the summit of a bluff a* out enc mile distant from our previous place of visit. We therefore proceeded to this point, and found on descending the hill, after enjoving the breeze on the sum mit, that the sun appeared almost insuffera ble. I think I never have in any place, found the sun so oppressive as in the nar row* streets of St. Thomas. We proceed ed however, and after a tedious walk of an hour, perhaps, we found ourselves at the summit of hill No. 2, and at the castie of Blue Beard. Th is castle has been pur chase dby a French merchant, who has renovated the whole establishment, and has made a b'-autiful residence of it. Has repaired the Tower also, so that it is verv pretty, and affords a magnificent view of the Town, shipping &c. Yet to the trav eler it does not present the same features of interest as the Black Beard Castle, which has never been disturbed, but stands in Hs natural state. After resting our selves here for some ftime, we again de scended to the boat-landing, where we took a boat and returned again to our ship We still had another excursion to make, to the residence of old Santa Anna, the Mexican Genera'. We did this after supper, lie has a splendid establishment H"e walked about the grounds, and finally returned to the steamer at half past seven very tin-d, yet right well satisfied with our day's excursion. (Santa Anna was not on the Island, having gone to N. Y.) I felt some doubt as to the result of this tramp, upon Albeit; he being quite weak from eff cts of sea sickness. But I was glad to learn next morning that he felt better for it; and I believe the excursion was bene ficial to us all after the close confinement of the ship. Nearly all the inhabitant* of this Island understand a: d speak the Eng lish tongue. And American gold and sil- Aer secin to be as good a currency as any on the Island. At eight in the evening we set sail and proceeded on our way to ward Parra. our next stopping place, and on the Brazilian coast. Apr. 30—Nothing of interest has pre sented itself to-day. We passed several more barren looking Islands be longing also to the West Indies. Our Captain tells us that 'to morrow at eight o'clock, we will pass Martinique, a "French Island.' and as it is one of the finest of these islands, we anticipate a grand treat. May Ist. —At eight this morning we made the Island of Martinique. Our Cap lain, through consideration of a request m'nde by some of the passengers, ran close m beside this beautiful Island which af forded a fine view of the whole length of it; and certainly it is one of the prettiest places I ever saw. The whole Island seems to be cultivated, and presents the appearance of one grand field of cane.— There are several towns along the coast, The city of St. Parre seems to be a large city. Also noticed a large number of sii gar refineries. I believe their principal exports are sugar and rum It is said to be one of the richest of the French Islands. We were until late in the afternoon pass ing it, and judging from the rate we were sailing the Island must be about eighty miles in length. Passing these places makes it very pleasant tor the passengers, and does away, in a grea' measure, with the monotony that usually exists in mak ing this voyage in a sailing vessel, (which has been my bad luck heretofore.) May 2nd, —This morning at two o'olock we passed the Barhadoes, an English Is land, said to be a verv rich one aho. As we passed it so early of course we were deprived of a view. May 3d.— We find the ocean somewhat rougher to-day than usual, and many of the passengers are feeling again the effects of sea sickness. We havQ escaped, however, fevers, or sny sickeess of an epidemic na ture which we consider very fortunate in deed, and rather remarkable among so ma ny passengers. We arrived at Parra all safe, on the eighth. Went ashore, Town send, Mr. Osborne end myself. I found this city one of the poorest Brazillian cit ies that I had seen. JPe took a carriage and spent part of the dsy driving about the suburbs. We found some very pretty plaees on the out edge of the town. Our party ere still enjoying health. Albert seems to be suffering still from sea sickness, although lie is not very bad ; but still be does not take bis meals with any degree of regularity, and unless the aea is very-Smooth ne feels unsettled. Not another passenger on the ship seems to be afflicted as he is May 10th.—We are now getting on well toward Pernambuco, where we are due on the 13th. We succeeded in get ting our letters aboard the "Merrimac," the return steamer from Rio. Wc passed her in the Parra River, SQUIRE. _ • ♦*Por Carlotta." "Poor Carlotta !" Maximilian was shot faced to the front. IBs last words were "Poor Carlotta !'' How tender and touch ing is this convincing illustration of the manly and generous nature of the fallen Emperor. Abandoned by France, betray ed by a Mexican follower, tried by a mili tary tribunal of his implacable enemies, condemned to death, and brought out for execution, all interpositions in his behalf from the representatives of foreign powers having failed, this distinguished victim of Napoleon's "grand idea" would have been justified bad he devoted his last moments in denouncing the contrivers of his destruc tion and the barbarians thirsting for Ids de blood, and in deploring his untimely fall in the strength of his manhood and bis hopes. But Maximilian was a man of lar ger breadth of mind and heroism than this, lie had deliberately cast his life into tbe scales in defense of bis empire, he had pledged his word in tbe name of bis impe rial house of Hapnburg to fight it out with his enemies, and like a true soldier, he was prepared for this last disaster, lie lecog nized his fate as resulting from the fortunes of war, and had neither denunciations r.or regrets on his own account to make. Like the dying gladiator at Rome— lie reeked not of his 1 ife, nor of the prize, , His heart was home, and that was tar away. Face to lace with liis remorseless execu tioners, awaiting; but the word to ''fire ! ' — all thoughts of his lost empire and his low estate gave way to those endearing mem ories and sweet affections which had linked his life, his happiness, his fate and his am bition with "poor Carlotta !" As to a drown ing man numerous events of his past life running through many years of time are vividly reproduced in a few fleeting seconds so to this victim of Mexican vengeance were, no doubt, recalled in the last mo ments of his earthly existence those charm ing rccolections of his young, beautifuhgif ted, accomplished and devoted wife,where by he had become so fascinated with his Mexican empire and his hopes of the Mex ican people, that he could only relinquish them with Ijis wife. "Poor Carlotta !"• Her triumphal journeys, her floral recep tions, her welcome charities, her gracious ways, her catholic pietv and her resistless womanly gentleness among the suscptihle Mexicans, were all so faithfully devoted to his canse as to develop in him the heroism of the feudal ages. He was her gallant knight, equipped hy her own fair hands for a glorious crusade ; 6he was his queen of love and hcautv to whom his word as a soldier and his faith as a devotee were pledged. All these thoughts recurred to him as the memories of a golden dream, and fp-m these and that other thought,that •tie had hopefully braved the dangers of the seas, and the doubtful generosity of France in hia behalf, only to bo repel'ed in despair, and to be doomed to a living death, came the inspiration to Maximilian which was expressed in his last expressive words—"Poor Carlotta !" N<>r is there in the records of history,as the las-t words of a dying saint or hero, anything {riven which appeals so tenderly to our better nature, to all that bcantifies and softens the human character, as these dying words of Maximilian —"Poor Carlot ta !" They will crown in history this fall en man. However mi-qruided he was in bis ambition or in bis acts as a ruler, those two words, with all their impressive and redeemine associations, vill crown him with the flowers of affection and the lau rels of the hero. Had he recited and elo quently vindicaied every step and every act in his imperial career he would have failed to reach the the eloquent defense embodied in his dvinjr exclamation of "Poor Cail-itta !" To her they will be the woids of restoration or dissolution for him they are the wreath of immortali ty. "Poor Carlotta ! ' —iV. Y. Express. Judge dharewood.
