THE VOICE OF THE KEYSTONE
DEMOCRACY.

An immense and enthusiastic gathering Of
the democracy took place at the Chinese muses.
UNI in the city Of Philadelphia on the 22nd ult,
Washington's birth day. The great object Of
the meeting was to give public expression OF
the sentiments Of the Democrats in Philadelphia
city and county on the agitatmg subject Of the
day-lhe question OF slavery. They met the
question boldly, and with perfect unanimity. aud
in a manner which must be most satisfactory 10
the South. The resolutions which they adopted
breathe the purest patriotism and the warmesl
devotion to the constitution, the Union and the
rights of the States, while they express decided
hostility to 'the fanatcal efforts of the abolition
aud free soil agitators.' But we have no time
or space to-day TO comment as we would wisE
on this glorious gathering of the keystone De

luiions entire in our next
