we placed the cenuiQatc3 OF lne
Democratic party, Tor State Offices
under the new constitution before
our readers a few days ago. On
yesterday we gave the proceedings
Of the Convention in ezteaso.
Wood-re-nominated for Cover
nor-is a man Of respectable talents.
As a politician, he has been rather
conservaiive-the radicals have bat
little confidence in him.. Many Of
this class have expressed a determi-
NATHAN not 10 vote for him-they
can't consistenily-but that we leave
10 be decided at the polls. Wood
has neither many very warm friends
nor bitter opponents.
MedilI, candidate for Lieut.. Gov
ernor, is hard-money politician
radical and destructive-in trade a
politician-in principle the Veriest Of
demagogues. @ T.,
Morgan, the candidate for Audi
tor, is young man-the editor of
a Locofoco paper in Columoisna
county-he is radical enough for any
purposes tinctured with abolition
ism, as a matter oil policy-as to
principles, he never had any, and we
never knew one of the family that
had. With such an opponent as
John Woods it's not expected that
he will "get out OF the bushesl'
Breslin, candidate Tor Treasurer
of State, is the editor Of a locoloco
paper at Tiffin-as private citizen
he stands tolerably fair-as a public
man not very crediiable-in politi-
cal matters he's after the "Sam Me-
dary School," being educated in
Sans office. "EviI communica-
tons" corrupt not only "good man
ners," but "honest principles"-and
Breslin is an example in this particu-
lar, Of which young men should be
admOnishedl ..r,
DR.. Trevitt, candidate for Secreta-
tary Of Slate--has been a member
of the Legislature from Perry coun-
ty--no particular credit 10 him, as
many members OF the Legislature
are great asses-the Doctor may be
an exception. r
Pugh, candidate for Attorney
General, is young man OF rather
creditable ability--is "smart Young
man." as "Aunt Fanny would say.
He lacks, however, ex Experience and
stability.
Candidates Board Of Publi ic
Works:-of Miller we know but
little, but hear he is Disqualified
very ordinary man. Sieadman is a
man OF still less capacity. Many
penny is a violent politician, a tolera-
bic business man,-but ready "lor
straIagem or spoils," ii not for "trea-
sonr'
Candidates for Supreme Bench:-
Thurman is a creditable nomination,
Ranney is Reserve Locofoco-goes
in for resisting the fugitive slave law,
Caldwell is a "smalI affair" for a
Judge-he got his nomination by
treating the delegates to as much
whiskey as they could drink during
the sitting OF the Convention. He:
a spiritual candidatel Tom Bartley
is man Of some requirements moi
much ability. but enough presump.
tion, arrogance and self-conceit to
do the whole ticket--he's a Goldfish
aristocrat OF the ",oeGkest water"
John A. Corwin was a Wing a few
years ago, but turned Locofoco be.
cause the Wings wouldn't give him
an Office. His principles are the
"nubbins" in the "public crib"
or such is the Loeoioco ticket
made up--insigni6cant enough, and
humiliating enough, when such men
J as Ksnnon, Groesbeck, Swan, sc.
have been cast aside to give power
and place to those whom, if elected
will sacrifice the public interests.
