II ialf iransiaitCn Ot the Fesu!u'lobs auopt-
ed by the Convention. and published ia another
ceIumn,) relieved Of eli surplusage, would
make them read about as follows
l. That the General Administration, stand
Jog as il does before this nation, covered With
disgrace aud convicted of reckless reereancy
to politicsi principle, aud Of conduct destruc-
tive of public morals, mast be, and is hereby,
sustained by tho DEFENDANTS Of the aforesaid
Administration.
g That this Administration mast be suppor.
ted in the teeth of its outrages upon the people
of Kansas, and in the face OF its mnnsirous ex-
penditures in Utah.
3. That the President mast be applanded for
bis views on the tariff question, though all aid
to our langushing interests was defeated BY
his creatures in the Cabinet aud his echoes in
Congress.
4. Tia, tue Paraguay expedition is right
because inaugurated by in Administration un-
der which the most of US hold Office, or expect
TO hold il.
.. Thai unier the Administration plan of
corrupting civilized Government aud INSULT
ing united people, we can acquire Cuba, and
degrade ourselves and, therefore, the ac-
QUESTION of Cuba is righteous.
6. Th,t the new overland and lsthmean
routes to the Pacific are an achievement of SUI
perfne craftsmanship, costing millions of money,
and Offering scarcely any facilities TO either
passengers or mails.
I. That our idea Of Popular Sovereignty is
to attack oil who really advocate it, ond 10 say
that we are iu favor of it ourselves.
s. That inasmuch as the General Admins
tration sets So shameless an example of fraud
and favoritism, we are not in favor Of that ex-
ample being followed 10 our own State.
.. That Senator Bigler, being the embadi-
ment of the genius, integrity, aud consistency
ot the Federal Administration and particu-
larly hostile to jobs of every kind, Especially
all jobs relating to the post-of6ce blanks,) we
endorse him as eminently worthy of support
and confidence.
The action of The Conventinu on &c resolu-
lion in regard to Governor Packer was deli
cious dessert after such course of "funeral
oakee meats as the above Three persons,
1 one OF them small dependent on Federal
bounty head, and another an eager ofice-h hunt r
from Northampton, where the leaders in this
wreiched scene. Such assaults Oh the iutegr-
ty OF Governor Pnsker, by set of hacks 10
aud out of office, who are silent over the in
famous malpractices of those in power al
Washington, and full of applause of the men
| guilty OF these crimes, show how utterly de-
based auy organization must become that has
no guiding star but submission to Treachery.
We really congratulate Governor Packer that
nc received the Only positive compliment from
the Convention. A body that so fagrantly de-
fes the popular will nly'tains good man by
It's suspicious euogy. The two candidates no
ninated-Mr. Rowe, of franklin, Cor Sur-
/ veyor General, and Mr.. Wright, of Phil.-
delpha, for Auditor Gcnerai-are worthy anf
| upright men. Mr.. Rowe has acted as Surveyor
General for the last two years and half, and
has doEe his whole duty ably aud falthfnlIy.-
Mr Wright closes bis career as State Seu-
ator trom PhilA ielphis with ta9 present session.
His honesty is wholly bribc>proof, which is a
/ great deal TO say in these times But the
Consentiou should have selected standard
bearers more deserving of the rites Of sacriice.
! Why tie men like these to The stake9 The
Administration at Washington proceeds, it
would seem, upon the theory that it is not
victory, bat victims, which the Democracy re-
! quireS, and therefore, Messrs Rowe and
/ Wright must take the chances of war. Ne
trust, if they shall choose to stand upon this
platform, they will aunounce The fact before
! the cars have started. Let us have no more
juggling. - Foraeys Press.
