publican State Convention for the choice OF
delegates to the Philadelphia convention,
met here to-day. The proceedings were
harmonious. Ex-Governor John II. Cliff
ford presided, and made brief address,

mend Senator Wilson for Vice President.
HARRISBURG, Pa, April 10.-The State
Republican convention nominated Hartrauit
on the first ballot. The resolutions heartily
indOrse the administration. The first re-
affirms devotion to the principles of the Re
publican party and the belief that its con-
iinuation in power is necessary for the su0r
cess of the principles.
The second, that the adoption of the
fourteenth and fifteenth constitutional
amendments has not been acquiesced SO far
as to render them secure and permanent
interpretations in that instrument.
The third sustains the policy of protec-
ton, and is opposed to the further appro-
priatiOn of public lands to corporations or
individuals.
The fourth demands the continued re-
ductiOn Of the public debt, economy in ma
tional and State administrations, and the
reduction of taxes as rapidly as possible
consistent with the public credit.
The fifth, that internal taxes should be
removed before the reduction of the tariff
on foreign goods. and that in the event of
any change in the tariff, the tax on tea and
coffee should be removed
The sixth approves of the Presidents
trial Of the civil service reform, and that
this or some other system have fair trial,
and declares that the Republican party has
given full evidence of its ability to admin
lister the government honestly, faithfully
and successfully, and claims from the
people the continuance Of their confidence
and support.
The seventh points with pride to
the record Of President Grants aCminis-
tratiOn. Not only has internal taxation
been reduced, but 100000 900 of the public
debt has been paid otf-a result never be-
fore attained by any people under like cir
cumstances, and for which we arc indebted
to the rigid honesty, strict economy and
sterling integrity which the President has
brought to the administration OF national
affairs.
The eighth presents General Grant for
denomination, confident that the people will
again rally to support the man who 50 nobly
fought the battles and brought the nation
through its struggle, and who has ever
since successfully administered the govern
ment SO as to command admiration at home
and abroad.
The last resolution ccngratulates the peo-
pie on the accomplishment of call for
convention to revise the constitution.
