The wing press pretending TO in the Harrisburg
Convention nothing but heaburning, discord, and divi
sion to the republican party They affect 10 say that the
party can never unite upon democratic nominee in
Pennsylvania and that her vote will be transferred TO the
wing candidate. This is gross mistake, glazing
misrepresentation. All the democratic papers hail the
signs of the times suspicious TO the OF
our party and specimen Of the light in which it
is regarded by every competent observer, lay before
readers the following extract from the Carlisle Vol
unteer' OF Thursday last
THE STATE CONVENTION. democratic State conven
on which assembled Harrisburg the 4h instant, adj
oumed sine die Monday evening last. Every county
in the State represented and although there
siderable debate several questions brought before the
convention, yet happy have in power TO
state that all was wellal unon and harmony, and
good feeling the final adjournment Every questoa OF
interest fully discussed, and the result satisfactory
all The convention was composed of men OF charac-
ter and worth 1t body which, in talents and true
devotion to the glorious principles of democracy, would
compare with any similar one in recollection
There were differences Of opinion to who should
receive the OF Pennsylvania for the presidency but
ali agreed that the nominee of the national convention
should receive the hearty support of The friends
Mr. Buchanan composed respectable majority of The CON
venton and gratifed to that they did
tempt to adopt any calculated to offend the minor

nory voted for the reso uons nsructng the delegates
the national convention 'vote for James Buchanan, UNI
til majority of them shall otherwise decide" Indeed
the resolution nstructng the delegates for Mr. Buch
anan, was offered by delegate who voted against
him-Mr Lowry, of Crawford. This the proper
spirit and it goes prove that the democratic party
OF the old Keystone is firmly united, man, upon
their great principles. Every member of the conven.
ton acted if he felt entirely confident of glorious vic
tory fall against the hosts OF federalism, under what
ever banner they may adopt They all, without excep.
on voted for the resolution instructing the electors
for the nominee of the national convention" This
was the true policy. Democrats may honestly entertain
different views who should be standard bearer
the great contest but the national convention will set
tie the question in manner, trust, will give satac
ton to all after that, the battle will be alone with our
reckless and unprincpled opponentsthe federasts We
do not fear the result.
The electoral ticket is composed OF democ Craftsmen
of sterling worth and the address and resoutions-which
shall publish in next if possibe-are drawn up in
the proper spirit and worthy OF the party and cause
Never did we feel pouder Of State and her noble de-
