II appears from our telegraphic report Of the
proceedings of the barnburners' convention At
Utica, yesterdsy, that the proposition Of the old
hunker, TO unite upon ticket for State officers,
has been accepted by the former, and that the con-
vennon will probably adjourn to meet again, in
concert with the hunk~rs, at Syracuse. The
barnbumers have nominated only their share,
four candidates, viz
Henry 8. Randall for Secretary OF State,
Benjamin wslch Jr for Treasurer, and
Alexander Campbell for State Engineer.
Yet We are not certain that all the necessary
conditions Of the union-in regard to the express
sion Of sentiment upon the slavery qucstlon-wiu
be complied with by either section of the PARTY.
