Tb. .penusvlxanian Democracy

We extract the following beautiful passage
from the remarks made by Col. Saml. W. Black,
of Pittsburgh, in the recent Democratic National
Convention, made just previous to the delega-
ton from Pennsylvania casting the unanimous
vote Of the State for General Pierce:
The Democracy of Pennsylva-
MA hold principles higher than all other consid-
erations Men may debut eternal years are
the lifetime of truth. We yield TO the action of
the Convention not without sorrow, but never
theless most willing obedience; and pledge a
full and faithful struggle in every part of Penn
sylvania to him whom the representatives of the
people have chosen. 1t is an easy thing in the
excitement and exhileration of heart thrilling
with pleasure, TO promise much that cannot be
performed But when men pledge themselves
in sadness they never fail The subdued heart
never keeps the word of promise to the ear and
breaks it to the hope.
The person who addresses
you was born, and lives on the banks of the
M0nongahela river. The river bears an Indian
name, of which the Interpretation is, the river
without an island. From its source in Virginia.
tn its termination al Pittsburg, the stream runs
with a free current, knowing natural OBJ
strnrtinn.
This nomination sprang from Virginia, and
through our hearts shall have a free course and
a full food.
The gallant and unfaltering State, where the
Democratic ranks are never broken in the day
Of battle, has given another President to the
Union.
Il was the custom Of the Saracen, on the
plains Of the East, 10 lang his brightest diam
ends on the outside front of his tent. There
they reflected the brilliant beams of the sun by
day, and the bright beauties of the moon by
night. The principles of the Democratic party
are her jewels, and here, in their mountain home
Of the West, are hung shining and clear, in high
places on our tents.

Letter from Ex-President TYLER.

1t gives us great pleasure to publish the fol-
lowing excellent letter from Ex-President TYLER
which has been placed in our hands Thourb
not intended for the public eye, we take tie lib
erty of giving circulation to such valuable testi
mony in behalf of the Democratic nominee
SHERWOOD FOREST, CHARLES CRY. Co. Va
June 10 1852.
Ny Dear Sr:-My thanks are due to Won for
your repeated favors from Baltimore during the
session of the Democratic Convention; and in
reply to your inquiry as to my opinion on the
final result of its deliberation, l cannot more
plainly answer, than by stating what occurred
several days in advance of the nomination in nv
own family circle. 1t became obvious to me
from an earl y hour in the deliberations of the
Convention that none of those who had been
most prominently spoken of could be selected.
and OF course we cast about, to use huntsman's
phrase. for suitable person, and one who would
be most likely to succeed, and General PIERCE
was pronounced to be the man. This was in ad-
vance of the action in his favor in Convention
This conclusion arrived at for two reasons:
lst. The State of New Hampshire had been one
of the truest and most faithful States in the u
Mon to the great Jefferson platform of principle,
If her noble and uniform advocacy of principle
had ever suffered eclipse, the envious cloud
which has SEED across her disc had soon pass
ed away, and her light was more intense than
before. On the slavery question she had taken
her position firmly-so firmly, that after having
nominated Democratic Governor, as she belle
we'd him TO be, she hesitated not to throw him
overheard upon understanding that he was tine
tured with freesolism. She made a new nomi-
nation and won the victory! She stood there
fore, prominently forth as challenging the res
pect and confidence of the constitutional party
of the country. In choosing among her sons
none presented more imposing claims than Cen
eral Pierce. To dwell upon those claims would
be waste of time in writing to you. While l
hold all the gentlemen whose names were before
the Convention in the highest respect yet must
say, without disparagement to any, that the no
mination which has been made is destined to
carry with it quite as much, if not more iniu-
ence IN the election than any other that could
have been made. regard General Pierce's cleo
ton as Hert to certain If, upon being elected, he
brings along with him the fixed purpose of reu-
hitting the old Jackson party of 1923 (which was
the sound Republican party and shall accom-
plish that object, he will have given new base
to the Union and a still brighter day to the Con-
sdtutiOn- The old Republican party unired in
all its strength may all factions at open def
ance. 1t was formed in 1912, but the politicians
tore it in twain for their own ambitious purpos-
es. l write you freely, but not so fully as l
could desire. The limits of letter deny to me
greater latitude than merely TO answer your in
quiry. With best wishes, yours, truly,
JOHN TYLER
