LANCASTER, Pa, June 9.-The Keystone Club,
with Beck's Brass Band, of Philadelphia, arrived
here yesterday, and this morning visited Wheat
land, escorted by several hundred citizens. The
President OF the Club was introduced to Mr.. Bu-
chanan, and congratulated him as the nations
choice. The work was begun, and they intended
to carry 1t on until success crowned ii cir efforts
Mr. Buchanan replied as follows:
Gentlemen of the Keystone Club: give you a
most hearty and warm welcome to my abode.
congratulate you, not upon my nomination, but
upon the glorious privilege of being a citizen of
our great Republic. Your superiority over the
people Of other countries has been fully demon
strated by the conduct of the vast concourse as
sembled during the past week at Cincinnati. Upon
any similar occasion in Europe, the voluntary ex-
preston of the people would have been drowned
in martial music, and their actions controlled by
an army with banners.
How unlike the spectacle at Cincinnati, where
delegates from the people of the different States
met in convention, and under the protection of the
constitution and the laws, tremendously delibera-
ted upon subject of vital Importance to the
country.
Gentlemen, two weeks since should have made
you longer speech, but now that have been
placed upon platform of which / most heartily
approve and being the representative of the great
Democratic party, and not simply James Buchan-
an, must square my conduct according to that
platform and insert no new plank, nor take one
from it. That platform is sufficiently broad and
national for the whole Democratic party. This glo-
rious party, now, more than ever, has demonstra-
ted that 1t is the true conservative party of the
constitution and the Union.

SENATE.
TUESDAY, June 10, 1856.

TUESDAY, June 10, 1856. a
Mr.. THOMPSON called attention to the fact that,
from the reading of the journal, 1t would appear
that Mr.. STUART had been elected permanent Pres
dent pro tenn. of the Senate, when he was chosen
to fill the chair in the absence of Mr. BRIGHT only.
He presumed that the error was Inadvertently made
Mr.. BUTLER thought Mr.. STUART was duly
elected, and that as there could be but one Pres-
dent pro tenn. at time, he thought the journal was
correct.
Mr. SEWARD thought that Mr.. SrxART would
be entitled to the chair on the return of Mr..
BRIGHT. The subject was then dropped.
Mr.. FOSTER introduced bill changing the
register of the British barque Resolute.
Mr.. MASON stated that this vessel was abandon
ed by her crew, in the Arctic Ocean, and that she
was found and brought in by American sailors.
He thought the United States Government
should purchase the vessel of her discoverers re-
fit her. and return her to the British Government.
Mr.. FOSTER heartily concurred with Mr.. MA.
SON, and withdrew his bill that his idea might be
put in operation.
Mr.. CRITTENDEN called attention to the Kan
sas disturbances; thought there had been debate
enough; 1T was now time to act. 1t was time to
allay the excitement to quiet the troubles, to re-
move the cause that kept the strife alive, and to
put an end to the civil strife that vexes the whole
country, and endangers the safety of the Union.
Here is place to inquire which party is most to
blame. Let peace be restored, and then let the
laws take their course, and the guilty be punished
The resolution empowered the President to en-
ploy General Scott at the head the United States
troops to quell the disturbances in Kansas.
He advocated the project, saying that the name
of General Scott would do much toward that end.
The General would 60 there with his sword in his
left hand, and peace, gentle peace, in his right
He asked the immediate passage of the resolution.
Mr.. MASON was speaking against the resolu-
ton when our report closed.

shall bring 1t back again into renewed contact by
the action of the power which has been called into
action by the retreat of the magnet
Third. ! claim the employment of two cog-wheels
or circuit breakers at each station, so arranged
that one shall be in connexion with the electro
magnet at the same station, and the other in con-
nexion with the transmitting cylinder at that sta
ton, the whole being arranged so that the connex
ion alternates at each station for every letter be-
tween the electromagnetic and the transmitting
cylinder at that station, in such manner that the
through connexionis always simultaneously through

tack, as we learn from the New York Courier.

person being killed in building furnished with
lightning conductors. Last year, he says, there
were three buildings burnt by lightning which were
furnished with conductors. These facts are i'm
portant, as showing the value of conductors to be
much greater than is generally believed.

DR.. Magruder has already removed nearly every

He was sworn into Office only yesterday, and had

Heretofore no removals of any consequence were
made until some weeks after the Inauguration of
the Mayor. But Magruder cannot wait, it seems.
His friends are hungry and must be appeased. So
he has already commenced throwing the Corpora

him, and they humble them and growl over them

cy shows him to be deyotee of the Goddess of
Reason, and scoffer of revealed religion But
on what hypothesis can be reconciled his pertina-

and at CincinnatiY
Resolved, That the Democratic party recog-
Misses the great importance, in political and COM
mcrcal point of view, of speedy and safe over
land communication between the Atlantic and Pa
cfc; and that it is the duty of the Federal Gov
eminent to exercise all reasonable constitutional
power for that object thereby binding together the

ing the rich trade of the East, and uniting the
country from the Pacific to the Mississippi and the
