From the LsGrange Reporter.l
The convention has acted n0bly, and we challenge
all mon to say whether this ia not tho noblest ticket
in the field, and whether these men would not DO
number one, ever If there were thousand others in
nomination. Whether we succeed is not for us to
say, business is to do right; to do the best for
our country, and leave consequences to Providence.
Wo are proud OF our nominees, and when we Gall

OUR CANDIDATES.
To-day we spread our banner to the breeze, with
the names Of Daniel Webster, 0fMassachusetts, and
Charles J. Jenkins, of Georgia, inscribed upon its
folds for the two first Offices In tho republic. They
have been nominated in convention, by delegates
presenting those Independent freemen Of Georgia,
who refuse to abide the decision of the two conyen
tions recently assembled in Baltimore-men distin-
gushed, not less for conservatism and devotion to
all the great interests of the country, than for their
sound national principles, and their determination
to preserve, as far possible, the freedom Of the
elective franchise In the exercise of this high prv-
lege they have risen superior to the dictaton of ire
sponsble conventions, and shaken off the etters with
which those conventions sought to bind them; thus
displaying degree Of moral courage, and earnest,
devoted DatriOtiSm. worthy
republic.
OF the nominees themselves, We need not attempt
any eulogium. They are known to the people Of
Georgia. The name of Daniel Webster is written
in broad and legible characters every page of his
corntry's history for the last thirty years. Emil
nently distinguished for the great power of his
gigantic intellect his profound scholarship, his en-.
6ghtened, elevated and liberal statosmanship, and
his sagacious diplomacy, he has enrolled his name
high on the temple Of fame, and secured for him
self the proud distinction of the great defender Of
the constitution. Such is Daniel Webster, in whose
bosom pulsates an American heart: whose feelings

OF Charles j. Jenkins, the distinguished citizen,
pure patriot, and profound statesman who is placed
on the ticket for the second Office, netting that we
can cay will elevate him in the estimation Of the
people of Georgia. To them he is known-they are
familiar with the purity Of his private life-his
sulied integrity, ardent patriotism, sagacous states
manship, and sincere devotion to the Union and
constitution. man, who, II ne had never per-
formed any other public act, has enrolled his name
high among the conservative patriots of the repub
ic, by giving to the world the platform Of the Con-
sttutiona Union party Of which he was the author.
He is eminonty conservative in his principles and
feelings and has higher ambition than to preserve
and perpetuate the Union and the Constitution.
Such are tho men who compose the Independent
Ticket-which combines more talent and capacity
for the discharge of the high and responsible duties
of the Offices to which We would elevate them, than
both the other tickets combined, four times over.
