Tho Couvention olected the following Senatorial delegates at largo to the Baltimore Convention : Gen. Geo. "W. Cass, Samuel .T. Randall, Wm. A. Wallaoe, and Phillip C. Collins. The following are tlieresolulions adopttd by the Convontion : Besphed, That the Democratie party, while in the future as in the pst firmly iipl.olding the ConsHtut'on of he United Statos as the foundation of the limitation of the powors of the general government and the safe shield of tha libertios of the peoplo, demind for citizoní thelarget freedom consistent with public order, and for every State the right of self-government ; that to uphold the former and protect the latter the Democracy of Pennsylvania can find no botter platform upon which to stand thaa the great and leading principies enunciated in the inaugural of President Jefferson and the farewoll address of the iramortal Jackson. Upon these two groat stato papers wo plant ourselvoa and uuter tho contest of 1872. Iïrsolved, That this Convention invites tho co-operation of all citizens of the Couunonwealth iu the earnost offort to remove from our Stnto administration overy political oorruption, and the attempt to do this can be mide certainly successful by tho union of tho upright and fairminded of all partie.s. and by sustaining oandidates of unquestionable ability and ünspottoi names. The next rosolution appeals lo the peoplo to support the nomiuee for Governor because his antion in tho past is proof that his official influence will bo used horeafter to prevent the mischief of special Úgislaíion, and to destroy the pos3ibility of procuring the enacment of any statute by the use of money or any other corrupt means. The next declares all the oandidates ominently worthy of the conf.dence and support of the people. The last is as follows : Resohed, That tho grant by tho Radical Legislature of this State of numerous charters creating such eorporations at the Scuth Improvement Company ; the Continental Improvement Compauy, andothers of similaV character, is unjust to the intorests of trade, and dangerous to the rights and liberties of the people, and as such moets our unqualified condemnation.
