of perfect harmony and good feeling.
Hon. Charles II. Buckalew was nomi-

Vaux, of Philadelphia, and Hendrick
b. Wright, of Luzerne, were nomina-
ted for Congressmen-at-large, and
Gen. Geo. w. Cass, Samuel J. Ran

Delegates to- the Baltimore ,Ceuven-

and limitation of the powers of the
General Government and safe shield
of the liberties of the people, demands
for every citizen the largest freedom
consistent with public order and for
every State the right of self-goyern-
ment. That to uphold the former and
practica the latter the Democracys0f
Pennsylvania can find no better, plat
form upon which to stand than the
great leading principles enunciatsd in
the inaugural: of President jefferson
and the, farewell address Of the, inn
mortal Jackson. Upon these two
great state papers We plant ourselves
and enter the contest of 1872. isd q
af Resolced, That this convention in
vites the cooperation of all citizens of
the commonwealth in an earnest eff
fort to remove from our State admin
istration every faint of political cor
ruption, and the attempt to do this
can he made certainly successful by q
.union of upright and fair men
of all parties, and by sustaining cam
didates of nnquestionable ability and
unspotted names,vffe naid3sgIos 5i5f 8
Theo next resolution appeals to the
people tor support the nominee OF
Governor, because his lactiengini the
past is proof that his efficial influence
will be used hereafterito prevent the
mischief of special Legislation and to
destroy the possibility of procuring

An ardent advocate forthe endorse
ment of Greeley by the Baltimore
Convention propounds this conun-
drum: "".Do you expect to go into the
coming campaign with the argument
that norman who has been opposed to
a party in former. times can consist

crat ever advanced such an idea, but
the opponents of Mr.. Greeley do think
that if he and his supporters are in
accord with the Democracy they
should. come to the support of that
party, and not insolently demand that
its 100000 voters should be trans
ferred over to them, under the threat
that if they do not do SO they will go
back to the support of Grant and mis-
administration, which they denounce
as corrupt and despotic. s.

T., 1t has leaked out that the Presi@
dents resolution to relieve Collector
Casey, which was pablishedis few

fact of the certain subInittab ofthe re-
ports this session on lthe9 condition. of
affairs in Louisiana. sMr.e Smith, OF
New York, called upon the President
the day his intention was made pub
lie, and read him portions of the tes-
tinlony showing that Casey had been
the disburser of q fund which was in
tended to corrupt the Legislature, and
that the money was Kept in the vaults
of the Gust om-h house, and also, other
parts, which seriously reflect on the
brother-in-law Collector. To save
himself Grant declared hfs purpose to
be to relieve Casey, but the intention
has not been carried out. During the
last week several gentlemen have CALI
ed on Grant to ascertain the cause for
ihe failure to ,reInove Casey, and the
subterfuge raised to save this ,,elative
is that no person can be appointed
who will. satisfy the entire State. In

We have never seen q greater piece
of rascality than the attempt of Grant
and his military ring, in the inutila-
ton of the records of the War DEPART
meut in the Buell. court-martial case,
because they reflect, and jastlyreflect,
upon the military record of General
Grant. 7It,is proven by the investiga-.
ton before the Military Committee of
the House of Representatives that
General Badeau,a the a-biograpkeri of
Grant, who wrote q ifliisomes eufogy
upon him, was permitted to carry
with him to Lsndon, England, five or

sumner ON Grant.

/ On Friday last Senator Sumner paid
his respects to the Great Receiver, and
fayed him alive. A Washington
special says that Sumner got The floor
in the Senate by parliamentary ma
neuVer which quite surprised the Adj
ministration Senators, and held ii for
four hours in an exhaustive and care
fully prepared speech, which soon
attracted well-filled galleries and
crowded the Senate floor with eager
privileged listeners. In the last heur
nearly all of the members of the House
were present. 1t is declared by the
older Senators that there -Itasa never
been speech in Congress, even when
the warfare was made on Any j Ohm
son, that equaled this for. an iHdicf-
nent for the personal as we'll as the
political record OF President Not
one single private or public act sof
Grants civil life appeared to have es-
capped the Senator's notice, for he held
it up to view in a broad fare of i'm
vective and censure, and added to the
matter of the speech an earnest and
vigorous force of delivery He ar
raigned him as q gift-taker, o a'nepotist
and failure !; declared that he spent
his time with fast horses, in palace
cars and lettering at the seaside. The
public acts of his administration were
rs fearfuliy assailed. He maintained
that his government was personal
one; that it commanded no respect
at home or abroad that it had done
nothing to commend tito the country !;
that it's reduction of the public debt
did not deserve as much credit as that
OF Andy johnson |; that it was false TO
the eolored people, and q failure so
far as it had anything to do with re-
construction, while its foreign policy,
of which it had attempted to boast,
was the most disgraceful muddle of
the age. This merely indicates the
general tenor of his remarks. The
friends of the President on the floor
who, were even characterized among
other rings as the Senatorial ring
gave the speech close attention, as is
not their wont usually when Mr.. Sum-
ner speaks, and took notes for reply.
They evidently regarded 1T as an
opening of the campaign in Congress,
and promptly moved aniudefinite ex-
tension OF the session from Monday.
