church together, and heard an anti slave-

several of his companions were at the

He said, "it hard sometimes to practice
this duty, and | felt it so last week, when
at Leavenworth went iuto the cell of
Charles Fugitt, and gave him the out

threw us into dungeons but we are COM
manded to forgive them, and we can do
it-eyen forgive Border Rufian-and

have house full of them every Sunday
to preach to. After the service, Jones's
friends began to discuss the sermon, when
he said, ''The less we say about it the

Of Mrs. Shard, who died in England IN
1919. The amount involved is believed
to be about $3.50, 900, which for several
years has been invested in British securi-

in whose favor the decision has been
rendered, reside in Maryland, Pennsylva-

A BOIter Will have his Say.

BY the following card from Mr.. DARTT,
delegate from Bradford county to the late
straightout American Convention held in
Lancaster, it will be seen that "an item"
escaped the attention of the reporters.
HARIsBURG, June 4th, 1857.
Nes2ys. Editors: The Convention
which met at Lancaster yesterday, to
which | was delegate from Bradford,
being composed chiefly of men who con-
sidered the great question Of Slavery ex-
tension of little or no account, and some
of them exceedingly violent against any
shadow of Repuhicanism, and | being
the only delegate from the northern part
of the State, [ came to the conclusion to
present to the officers of the Convention
the following-which may not be pub
lishcd in the proceedings. After pre-
senting my notice of withdrawal [ left the
Convention before the nominations were
made.
"Mr. President-In view of the fact
that the entire mass of Americans in
Bradford county (Which | had the honor
to represent in this Conventlonl have full
confidence in the Americanism and integ-
rity of David Wilmot, and cannot by any
means be drawn from him to the support
of any other man for Governor, and the
fact that but small part of the Common
wealth is represented here, [ respectfully
withdraw from any further cooperation
in the action of the Convention.
B. S. DARTT.
