THE PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION Of June
18th, will, without doubt, be one of the largest
and most interesting assemblages ever convened

pleasant excursion thither, by water, at that
time. The steamboat which has been chartered
by the Republican Club of Boston, to convey
delegates and others from that city, at Sl2 each,
both ways, including board, during the whole
time absent which will be about week, affords
a line opportunity, which we are glad to learn is

We hope our friends, throughout the county,
will bear in mind the State Convention of the
friends of freedom, to be held in this city onWt d.
nesday next
As ia stimulus to action, in addition to the ag-
gressions which haze been continually heaped
upon US for long series of years, ending with
that unparalleled enormiiy, the Nebraska out
rage, we have now the murderous outrages in
Kansas, perpetrated by slaveholding rufians I'M

and the recent attempted murder Of one OF our
own Senators, while at his post of duty IN ms

Il is arden,l, hoped that those towns whieh
have not already held meetings and CHOSEN uele'
gates to this Convention, will Immediately set
about the work. Let not one town be unrepre
scented. Let there be general rally, at these
meetings. of all those, without regard to past
marty differences, who abhor party tyranny and
rapine, and rufianism perpetrated under the
name of Democracy; and let them send up hither,
on the 4th of June proximo, such delegation as
shall do credit to the noble cause which they rep
resent
The Convention, itself, will no doubt be one of
the largest and noblest gatherings ever convened
within this Commonwealth. Many of the ablest
speakers from abroad will be present and address
the assemblage. Among others announced, are
Samuel Galloway Of Ohio, Gen Nye of NewYork,
and Gov. Cleveland of Connecticut.
Come one, come all, and help on the Peoples
Cause-th. Cause of Freedom-the Cause of true
Democracy, against oppression, misrule, and the
most diabolical acts which have ever been perpe-
