y
fag OF our party has been stricken down :
by an TN icrupllous coalition, banded 10
getner for the spoil- of Office, and marked
with every shade and color, of pol teal
opinion. Here, tonight, inspired by
common zeal for common country,
IN the august presence of thousands of
treenIen, attracted hither by the unultera-
bic inn ortauce of this solemn moment, we
again lai.e alo.t that stainless banner, and
i'll the name or the united Democracy of
the Old Keystone, we again wiite upon it
the same motto that graced its folds in
days gone blythe equality of the cti-
zen, and the equality Of the Statcs-civil
and religious liberty, at every hazard and
at every extremity" We have met for
victory--and we mean tohave it-and doing
all that men dare do with honor, to pluck !
the laurel, we will plant the standard of
the Union and the Constitution on every
vale and bill and mountain top in Penn
sylvaua, and, rallying around it the true
men of the Commonwealth, we will ask
them to stand with us, in maintaining,
inviolate and pure the sacred compact
which our fathers made !
But, gentlemen, the primary objects Of
this Convention are to nominate II candi-
date for the Gubernatorial Chair of Penn
sylvania, to select Delegates to the Demo-
cratic National Convention, and to appoint
Electors for the next Presidential canvass.
In carrying out these objects, l most ears
ne.tly trust that such prudent, moderate,
and conciliatory counsels may prevail as
, ,r;n ,,oru,;t I'll TO- fool tuhan tho bpur
of separation shall have come, that it was
indeed good thing for Us to have met
/ together here. Never before were the eyes
OF the people fastened with SO much anX-
, ious intere.t upon the deliberations Of any
political body. All men feel that the fate
Of the Democratic party is in our hands.
1t is for Us to mould its destiny, for veal
, or woe, for many years to come. Ii such
be the case, gentlemen, We cannot estl-
mate too highly the Importance Of united
and harmonious action in all our counsels.
Let US, then, in the beginning of our labora
: invoke the constant presence of that genial
$ ,plrit OF concession, whose generous teach
1 ing5 will tend to make Us unit here, and
whose shadow will encouragingly follow
Il, in the struggle that is to come. Let all
personal preferences be forgotten. Let
: all selfish feelings yield to the common
; good. Let the dead past bury it, dead
Let no one be ignored or overlooked oil
= dc, ount OF an honest difference OF op'nlol
,pon past and settled questions Of public
. policy, but let every man who calls him
self Democrat, and Is willing to carry
a the flag and keep step with the music o
the Cnion,'
