TIE PRESIDENT, on taking the Chair said he DEEM
ed it the proudest hour of his life to preside such
body as this Convention. He saw before him former
political friends and former political foes ur;ed in one
glorious purpose. Peace ever where prevails among
the friends Of Freedom. The Temple of Janus is
elcsec Az an old Wing he had right to say why he
Lad left that organization. His ancestors for years had
been Wings. His ancestors for years had been Wings
He could trace them back to the days Of the
Revolution-farther, probably, than could many
who claim to be exclusively American. It
was the aggression Of Slavery that had led him and
others TO unite for the purpose Of resisting that agrees
sion. Wings should be willing for such q purpose to
abandon their old name and unite with those who
had the same noble object in view. The Wing party
had once stood by United States Bank. II had en-
deavored to swim with that milestone round its neck
and rank. The United States Bank was nov an
obsolete idea. California had settled that question
Wings had advocated Protective Tariff, but the
Wings south of Mason and Dixons line had
rendered that principle subservient to Slavery.
The Wing party had been bled by those who
chose &c be ultra on Temperance and Adolf
ton. Wings, too, had generally been opposed
BY foreigners, because Of the name. The word
Democratic had charm for them they could not re-
srt. He alluded to the fathlessness OF those Wings
who had opposed VIM. H. Seward, and injured the
party by their course at Washington. All these things
considered rendered it unwise to keep up the ogani-
zation Of the old Wing party. The Democratic party
would also find plenty Of apology for abandoning their
old name. They were instructed by their leader at
Buffalo what doctrine was true and Democratic. Silas
Wright, almost with his dying breath, had advocated
that doctrine. They now stood upon the principles Of
Thomas Jefferson and they were surely those of the
true Democracy. They oppose Slavery because it
impoverishes the country. He drew contrast be-
tween the Slave and Free States, honorable to the
latter.
In relating the progress Of Slavery he declared that
the North had unwisely adopted the Missouri Com
promise in the first instance. Then was the time to
have resisted. He recosnted and denounced the va
rious inroads upon Northern freedom that had been
made from time to time by the South. He declared
that Buchanan the representative alone of South
em principles, and branded the Ostend Manifesto as
the greae piece Of vainy since thes day of the first
Cain. There was but one thing at issuc-to Sc
cure Freedom for Ksnsas-snd that they would do.
Thethunder from Maine had said it. All New-England
moves in solid phalanx. Will New.York be behind
[Cries of "No!" "No!"l He declared that no per-
son would care for squad Of men calling themselves
Old Wings, who had no candidate of their own, but
adopted that one who had started on the sprngbosrdof
Ant-Masonry, opposed to secret societies, and now
sought to Grope his way to the White House by the
aid of the Dark Lantern secret Order The President
closed amid loud applause.
Judge EDMOSDs Of New.York moved the sp.
pointment Of Committee on an Address and Resolu.
tons, Of one from each Judicial District. Adopted.
Mr. DAYToE Of New-York moved that each Con-
gressonal Representation select from each Con.
gressonal District to constitute the Republican Elec.
tora Ticket and that the Chair appoint two from each
Judicial District to report the names Of two Electors at
Large.
Mr. TOWNSEND Of Troy opposed the nomination by
the Chair, and desired that the Delegates from the
act as such Committee. He had heard rumop outside
to which wac unnecessary to allude, but which led
him to believe that mistakes might be made which
would entirely destroy the paryn the State. Voices:
g. What theyr'l Mr.. Townsend did not wish to
say (Cies Of "Now "Nopl-he acted in good faith,
and only desired to guard the Convention against any
action that he knew would be fatal in Rensselaer, at
least.
Mr.. RArHBrs Of Cayuga called for a division the
question, when the first part Of the resolution
adopted.
Mr.. SEGorH Of Cayugs moved to amend the second
part by providing that the Committee just agreed
upon be requested when together to select Commit
tee Of one from each district to nominate Electors at
Large. Adopted.
On motion the Convention then resolved to proceed
to ballot for candidate for Governor.
Mr.. DAYTON of New.York moved q reconsideration,
in order that the roll might be called and each men,
