FELLOW CITIzENs-In rendering TO you
m account of the manner in which this
Convention has discharged the duties con-
fded to it by the democratic party of Penn
sylyania, we tender TO you, in advance, the
assurance That the most cordial good feeling
has predonfinated throughout our delibera-
tions. The destinies of the great republic
can family of the Keystone State have
been committed to our care on a matter not
only vitality important to the existence of
democratic principles here, but throughout
the Union--and we feel proud in the con-
viciion, that the sacred trust committed to
us has been faithfully nurmred, and that
the result of our labofs Will meet the unan-
imous appreciation Of our constituents.
II is source of congraiulalion and just
pride to the democratic citizens Of this great
commonwealth, that their contention was
fully attended, by regularly elected dele
gates, from every county, at an inclement
season Of the year, without the aid and
stimulus of official patronage. This shows
that a spirit Of vigilance for the preseIya
lion OF their rights aud interests, is abroad
among the people. This same spirit aclu
ated your fathers, to strike for liberty
This same spirit stimulated the brave heart.
Of American freemeh IN the second war q

The moral courage and political honesty which

Gently into the House of Representatives, The sub
Ject OF the currency the duties ofhe Government
in relation thereto, deserves The highest commenda-
ton. u the principle therein laid down, shall be
fully and fairly carried out by the present admins

business Of the country-it win have tendency to
renew the spirit of enterprSe-encourage the almost
annihilated hopes of those who engaged in

vernment will sustain the banks, so far as those in
stinions are boomed on such materials, as TO be
capable of sustaining themselves with its aid, the
country will again be restored 10 its former prosperi

suffer this matter TO sleep-you have commenced
good work-let it progress-let the country see that
there is yet sufficient number in the House, who
are not SO completely under the dominion of party
discipline but that they act for the good their
country. The times alarming--the spirit of re-

CONNECTICUT ELECTION.

The calculations we made, few days
since, in regard to the relative strength Of par
ties as exhibited at the recent election, were
framed upon the returns of majorities, and
we're therefore inaccurate. Before correcting
ourscll, we thought proper to await the COM
plete returns, which we are now enabled to
give. There is an increase Of upwards of
5000 votes over the number polied last year.
The number given for Beers, the Loco-ioco
candidate, is about the same as that given for
the Wings in 1887; but less than the number
given to Edwards last year (the administration
candidate) by about $500. The Wing gain
over their vote in 1897 is 1914.
The Conservative votes polled are LAYS
but the Hartford Patriot d Democrat, and
the Democratic Sentinel, show conclusively,
that the greater portion of the Conservatives
staid away from the polls The former jour
nal computes the strength of the Conscrva-
tyes to be between 1000 and 5000 in the
State.
The following is the total vote in the State
for Governor in 1897 and 1898.

HON. JOHN RUGGLES.

The select committee who have had under
examination, for a long time, the subject of
charges against the Senator from Maine,
have at length made their Report, Gas will be

Senate, on the 10th instantly and unanimously
recommended The adoption, by The Senate, q a
resolution, generating The honorable Senator
from the charges made against him By Henry
c. Jones, and Ina! no further proceedings be
had in relation thereto.
The result is only what every friend of the
Senator expected, and every foe feared. We
shall iorbear at present, for obvious reasons,
from making any comments in relation to the
plot of this drama, that has ended in 50 deep
tragedy.
