BACKING Our AND BACKING IN.--We pub
lished recently an account Of The proceedings in
Tammany Hall, laying on the table resolution
profferng support to the Democratic State ticket
One Strahan, who figured in the detection IN
New York last year, which gave the Wings hall
the State ticket, and who attempted to disturb
the proceedings of the Syracuse Convention
this year, doubtless with the same purpose, was
conspicuous in this movement.
The N. Y. Globe, attempting to smooth ovel
this matter, says:
ssThe only objections made, we are informed
to the resolutions, were, that it was premature
1t was not opposed on it's merits"
But it adds that the Committee had refused
TO approve the ticket It'll the candidates had re-
sponded. Probably the collective impudence OF
the metropolis were desirous Of a recognition
of their claims to pass upon the rights OF dele.
gates to set in the State Convention, and to re-
wise the State nominations.
1t is characteristic, however, that this attempt
was made in the absence Of majority OF the
committee; and was attempted to be concealed
from the public eye--trick and cowardice char
acterzing the conduct of the disorganizers to

numbers, and the n Y. Herald gives in part the
vote by which the motion to take the ticket of
the table was passed. 1t says:

and John Queen, and were either absent or no,
voting.
1t viii be seen that Messrs. Strahan G. Co.
persist in their hostility to the last. But the
veil Of concealment under which they have
sought to carry on their intrigues, is fortunately
stripped off, and they stand, henceforth es
