Feeling in Pennsylvania.

--A large public meeting, presided over by the Hon. Frederick Watts, was held at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, on the 22d ultimo, and strong conservative sentiments enunciated. Resolutions were unanimously adopted recognizing as building upon all the Constitution as interpreted by the Supreme Court; recognizing as a constitutional right the existence of slavery in the South; declaring the surrender of fugitive slaves to be a duty under an inviolable contract, and denying that secession is either a natural right or a constitutional remedy.
