More Presidential Candidates.
Our telegraphic dispatches yesterday morning
conveyed the information that the Abolition wing
Of the Northern Americans, in session at New
York, had nominated Banks. of Massachusetts,
for President of the United States, and Johnson
of pennsylvania. for Vice President; and that a
norton of the members of the Convention had
seeded and nominated ticket composed Of
stockton. of New Jersey. and Rayner. OF North
Carolina. The cause of secessionis not stated.
and we are therefore, yet in the dark as to the
bone of contention and rock of division which
split that congomerate convoca,ion of bogus A.
mericaps, live Yankees, fanatics, hypocri,es,and
traitors. We are only informed that they agreed
to disagree. and have presented two tickets to
the country-Banks and johnson. aud Stockton
and Rayner. There is nothing surprising in this
result, except the supreme impudenee OF these
run.unad Yankeesin placing upon one OF tho
tickets the name OF = Southern statesman, gen
,leman and patriot-Kenne,h Rayner. That
they should for moment suppose that he would
accept anything at their unhallowed hands was
ridiculous; and surprising he would accept the
nomination. what on earth they wanted with him,

OF the result of the deliberations of that kin

hour Of penning this, not advised. They will,no
