B, Wright. ‘The first Tesulted as follows: On the second ballot there was no choice. On the third ballot Mr. Witte received fifty-four votes, ur. Fi Mr, Foster thirty-four, and tho balance aositerlog. No elnctiom. . Ur. Delirck, of Lycoming, now moved, in a Toud and emphatic voice, that Henry D. Foster, of Westmoreland, ‘de nominated for Governor by acclamation. A scene of the wildest enthusiasm ensued upon this. The President put the motion, which was immediately carried, and Mr. Foster declared nominated for Governor acclamation by "Delegates to Charleston and electors were appointed. ‘The Convention adopted a platform of reeolutions.” The first declares unsbaken confidence In the fundamental principles of the democratic party, a8 prociai conventions held in Baltimore and Cincinnati. leprecates the ion of slavery—in or out of Con- grese—ass tending to weaken the bonds of common union, excite animosity, and thus create heart-burnings, and ac- no possible good.

The selections last night, although not as attractive as those of the first evening, were sufll- ciently interesting to keep the audience pleased and satis- fied throughout. ‘The principal pieces read were “Tho Miller of the Dee,” “The Fire King,” by Sir Walter Scott; “Sleep,” by Mrs. Browning; “Scenes from Midsummer Night's Dream,” &c, Mrs. Blunt was in excellent voice, and gave the fullest effect and the best interpretation to the words of her authors. Tbe court scene in the “Mer- chant of Venice” was most fuvorably received. At the close of her reading, Mrs. Blunt retired amid loud ap- plauge.

A strip, land along the coast, that had risen out of the ocoan, was Superior in richness to any found in the West, and could not, it seems, be exhausted by cultivation. The fact was prov em, the lecturer thought, beyond doubt, that the coast, at th'¢ pre- Sent time was subsiding at the rate of some two feet every hundred years. He himsclf had examined the wheel of a mill erected at the head of tide water, only sou. ¥° fifty years back, that was now at least one foo! unde." water.
