The Keystone Democracy.
Progress of the Forward Movement

Progress OF the Forward Movement
The following, with the exception O
several resolutions of strictly loca
bearing, is the platform adopted by tn,
Democracy of Pennsylvania, in the STATE
Convention at Harrisburg on the cath;
RESOLVED, That the Force and Bayonet
Bills recently enacted by Congress are
gross attacks upon the reserved rights
OF the States, destructive Of the elemental
principles of civil liberty, are intolerabe
to a free people, centralzing in tendency
and should be forthwith repealed
ReSoieed, That the language of Sena
tor Carl Schurz in his St. Louis speech
wherein he says: 60 consider it one OF
the most pressing needs of our day that
we SHOULD return to the sound practice
of Constitutional Government. The safe
guards of our common rights and liber.
ties contained in the Constitution are too
sacred and valuable boon to be perma
nently jeopardized in providing for q
passing emergency. 1t is time that the
American people open their eyes to til.
dangerous character of this tendency and
that neither q great name nor an object
appealing to our sympathies should be
permitted to disguise it. As for me
have seen the working of irresponsible
power and personal government in oui
countries, and may assure my constitu.
cnts that while am citizen of this Re.
public | shall struggle to the last gasI
against its Introduction here was but
the utterance of well-known and frequent.
announced Democratic doctrine.
Resolced, That we recognize the bind.
ing obligation of all the provisions OF
the Constitutions Of the United States as
they now exist, and we dcpi ccate the dis
cussion Of the issues which have been
settled in the manner and by the author
ty constitutionally appointed
Resoiced, That we are for q govern
ment vigorously frugal, and applying all
the possible savings ofthe public revenue
to the discharge Of the national debt, and
are opposed to a multiplication of Offices
and salaries, merely to make place for
partisans and for increasing by every de.
vice the public debt.
ReSo'red, That the continuance, by n
Republican Congress Of the income tax,
when the same is at least Of doubtful
constitutonality, and the necessity there
for has long since ceased to exist, is an
exercise Of a power, oppressive to the
people and gross violation of their
rights and interests.
Resolved, That the present tariff is in
many of its features oppressive, and
should be revised and that we herewith
request our Representatives in Congress,
when the tariff shall be the subject of re-
adjustment, to see that the immense pro-
ducts Of the State and its industries are
properly cared for.

recollected by our readers that some
months ago registered package was
stolen from the mail ictween this place
CRANKY The mail seek was entered by
some one having key, and from that
time until this the work of detecting and
arresting the thief has been energetical-
ly conducted by Col. Schaurtie, who sue
ceeded in arrestng G. w. Gowday, on
Monday last, at Carthage, where the cul-
prit is now confined in Jail. 1t seems
that Gowday had by some means got
possession of key, and was in the hab-
it of travelling over the various routes
in the stage, and at every opportunity
helping himself to the contents Of the
mail sacks. He was known to be on the
stage from this place the night of the
robbery, and suspicion at once attached
to him He has at last been hunted down
and we understand confesses TO the rob
berry. Great credit is due Col. ochaurtie

A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-News
was received in this city yesterday, OF
very serious if'hot fatal injuries received
by Joseph E Bell, yesterday morning.
The particulars OF the accident, as far
as we have been able to learn them, are
as follows. About two o'clock in the
morning, just after the steamer Fleet
wood had left Maysville, Kentucky,
Mr.. Bell, while leaning over the rail
on the boiler deck, suddenly lost his bal
ance and fell some fifteen feet to the deck
below, receiving very serious injuries.
He was picked up in an insensiole con-
dition and made as comfortable as he
could be until the boat arrived in Gin
cinnat, when he was taken toAthe
Cincinnati Hospital, where he was at
TENDED by Drs. o. F. Davis and Go
bright. He was alive at 5 o'clock last
evening, but his condition was very
critical. His father, David Bell, ESQ,
went to Cincinnati last night to care for
his son. We trust the fears of his ply
sicians may be unfounded, and that he
may be spared to his family and friends.
