WORCESTER CONVENTION, MASS.

The session Of the Worcester Convcn.
tion, was brought to a close on Wednes.
day of last week Hon. John Davis, ol
Worcester, was nominated as the Ma
tional Republican candidate for Cover
nor, by a unanimous vote. A committee,
of which Hon. J. y. Austin was chair
man, was appointed TO wait on Mr. Da-
Wis, and inform him Of his nomination.
This committee reported, that it was ac-
cepted by that gentleman, in obedience
TO the wish of that Convention. Hon.
Samuel i. Armstrong was nominated
with the same unanimity as a candidate
for the Office of Lieut.. Governor. A
committee, Of which Hon. A. III. Ever
EFT was chairman, was appointed to pre-
pare an Address 10 the people OF the
Commonwealth. We expect to be able
in day or two, to lay before our read
ers the official account Of the proceed
ings Of the Convention.
We congratulate our friends (says the
Boston Patriot on the result Of this con-
yention. The nomination Of Mr. Davis
we have no doubt will be received with
tho highest qualification in every part of
the State. II will secure unanimity and
infuse spirit throughout the National
Republican party, and it affords the best
grounds for anticipating entire success
in the election. The nomination Of 1t.
Gov. Armstrong for reelection was an
ticipated, and Of course, gives full salts
faction.

Drink and Crime.-ln one day, last
week, fifty-six persons were tried for va
rious offences before the New-York
Court of Sessions Ofthe 90 who were
first tried, Is acknowledged, of their
own accord, that intemperance was the
cause Of their criminal deeds; and 9TH
ers were proved to have been drunk
when they violated the law, one ofwhom
is young man who will fall into tho
possession of large fortune, on the de-
mise Of an aged mother. One was COM
planned of by his own mother, who had
been outrageously beaten by her own
son, while intoxicated, and she was COM
PEELED, for the security Of her person, to
apply for the protection ofthe law against
him.

We have hitherto forbornc to lay be-
fore the public history of the unprinci-
pied political conduct of this man, to-
wards the party who, for the last fifteen
years, have supported him with cen
stancy and zeal which should have in
duced even him to act, or make an effort
to act, like an honest man--we have
been induced TO treat him with that sort
Of forbearance from various motives,
which il cannot be necessary To lay he
fore our readers al present. Mr.. Pcarce
has seen fit privately to circulate most
unioundcd reports in relation to The treat.
ment he has received from the National
Republican pnrty--we therefore, feel
ourselves compelled to publish short
history Of his political career, which we
shall do within a reasonable time before
the election. We give this notice in or
der that Mr. Pearce may prepare his de-
fence, if he has any TO make. The
VIC "e
us well knows now as though they were
already spread before him. AT present
we would only say to that gentleman,
that we have frequently heard of his COM
planning :hat all the papers in the State
were closed against him, and especially .
this papor.-Now Mr. p. knows as well
as we know, that this charge is utterly /
false. Was he not nominated by the
anti-masonic party, and also by the
Jackson party,-as he says'-did Mey

umns BE all this as it may-.Mis paper,

Consistency.-ln the celebrated Veto,
General Jackson was made, by his prin-
ciples, 10 inveigh strongly against the
Bank of the United States, because of
the Foreigners who have become inter-
estcd in its stock. The removal Of the
deposites in part to the Manhattan Bank,
furnishes a striking commentary upon
the sincerity of this objection. The
stock Of the Bank is almost entirely own
ed by Foreigners, and exclusively man
aged by them. II is, moreover, The only

University OF FRANcE.-The prizes
assigned to the most deserving students
of the University Of France were distrib-
uted in August, in the presence Of a
large and brilliant audience. On this
occasion, short address was made to
the pupils by nj. Guizot, Minister Of
Public instruction, from which we take
the following passage: Bos. Pat.
"Do not resign yourselves to any vain
Illusions; imagine not, that when you en-
ter upon another field of labor, you will
find the same aid, which you have expc-
rienced here; that the same kindness
will attend you, till the hour Of your en-
tire success. The world, with its nnex-
ible interests, its Indifference, its cold
rivalrics, its harsh constructions, is be-
fore you. On this theatre, your task
will always be laborous, and sometimes
very severe. Let your education, in
stead Of Disgusting these trials, prepare
you to encounter them. BE grateful,
that you have found here that discipline,
those habits Of order and dccorum, those
great principles, which strengthen the
soul and prepare it to gain the victory in
the hard struggles Of civil life, in the
same manner as you have already tri-
umphcd in the gentler conflicts Of youth
ful emulation. May your parents be
no less grateful; let them second the ef-
forts of your instructors, to impart to ma
tional education a moral and elevated
character. To keep this great object
always ia view, is our duty: It will soon
er or later be your happiness, that our
labors have been devoted to its accom-
plishmcnl.

VETo.-It is a remarkable fact, (says
the National Intelligencer,) that altho'
an absolute negative is vested in the
King of England as a branch of legisla-
tive power, it has not been exercised
since the year l692-a period of l40
years. Judge Story in his "Commen-
taries on the Constitution of the United
States," says, "this fact can only be ac-
counted for upon one oftwo suppositions,
either that the Influence Of the Crown
has prevented the passage of objectiona-
BILE measures, or that the exercise of that
prerogative has become so very odious,
that it has not been safe to exercise it,
except upon the most pressing emergen-

ABOLITION OF SLAvERY.-A notice
was lately published in the city OF New
York, desiring the friends Of an immedi-
ate abolition Of slavery, TO meet at Clin-
ton Hall. A great number of persons,
opposed to the object Of the proposed
meeting, assembled at the appointed
time, but found the room closed, the
trustees having carried away the keys
They then departed to Tammany Hall,
where, General Bogardus having been
called to the chair, resolutions were Of
fercd and unanimously adopted, dcclar-
ing that the agitation of the question OF
the immediate abolition Of slavery, would
be full OF danger to the common welfare,
calculated to increase, instead of mitiga
ting the evils of slavery, and expressing
a determination to resist every effort TO
interfere with the relation III which mas
ter and slave now stand, as guaranteed
by the constitution of the United States.
In the mean time, the friends of abolition,
j28 in number) assembled at the Chat
ham-street Chapel, where they organz-
ed themselves as an Anti-Slavery SocIe-
ty, and adopted constitution, one OF the
articles Of which declares il TO be among
the objects Of the association, "to take
all lawful, moral and religious means to
effect total and immediate abolition Of
slavery in the United-States."

We have never known the public press
to take up any subject with more spirit,
than the recent Manifesto of the Presi-

vent the fearless expression of opinion.

Jackson, "is far from being satisfied
with the proprety or expediency of the
measure" of removing the deposites.-
