PROTEST.
We a portion Of the Delegates to the National
American Convention from the State of New-York,
protest against the Presidential nomination made by
that Convention, upon the following grounds:
First: The nominee is not member of the Ameri-
can party. He has never been inside of a Council
ROOM and no act Of his life, word spoken, or line
written by him of which we have any knowledge, in
dcates that be sympathzes with that party or that
he would carry out its principles.
Second: His nomination we regard as an utter be-
trayal of the great American movement traitorous
attempt to wrest it from s purpose, and make It min
ster to the selfish ambition Of the leaders and dcma
gogues Of the dead organization OF the past
Third He was forced upon the State of Newly ork
by Southern votes against the wish Of our state dele
gates and from those States which no man pretends
can carry their vote for an American President.
Fourth. He was forced upon the state OF New York
against the express wish OF large majority of our
state IegisatuIe against the express wish OF ma
orty of the State officers and repeat against the
express wish of twothrds Of our delegates in the Con-
yenton.
Fith: He was not nominated by majority of the
States or by the delegates of majority OF the States
Several States were permitted to cast their votes
through single delegate, who cast the whole number
oe votes TO which his State would have been entitled
such votes were east by parties who had previously
protested against the proceedings and retired from the
Convention.
At Il, O'Clock the Convention adjourned in high
spirits.
