Nominations. -.

The action ,of the Columbia County
Democratic Convention of last Monday,
the proceedings of which We give elsewhere,
was as harmonious sthe result, was glor-
,ious. NeRer have we witnessed more
cordial County Convention and never have
we had better Democratic Ticket pre-
sented for our support. We shall warmly
and ardently sustain The Ticket, the
WHOLE TICKET, Aud. nothing but the
TICKET" bgt 9'
JOHN McREYNOLDS, ESQ.,, was NOM
mated, without dissenting voice, as the
Democratic Candidate for Congress. Mr..
McREYNcLps' age, experience and busi-
ness qualifications entitle him to this mark
of honorable distinction which he justly
received OF the hands of the invincible
democracy Of Columbia, whose inte rest he
has heretofore faithfully represented in the
Halls of our State Legislature. As this
Office does not strictly belong to any par
ticular county, but is the property in COM
mon, with the counties of the Ihe5fth Con.
gressional District, and as GOLD CoIUM.
BIA" has not had a. Congressman, for near
q score of years, we can see no valid rea-
son why he should not get the nomination,
and in which event, he will be trump
hantly elected.
PETER ENT; ESQ, was re.nomina-
ted with great unanimity as our candidate
for the Legislature. His course in the
Legislature last Session was that of an
honest man and an -incorruptible democrat,
Mr.. ENT's election in this Legislative Dis
trict may be regarded as "a fixed fact"
and We entertain proud satisfaction in
the belief, that he will again Represent the
interests of his constituents, in his Legis-
iative capacity, with honor to himself and
credit to the entire District.
MIR. JACOB EYERLY, as matter
of course, was re-nominated for County
Prothonotary, He has already had long
tenure of Office and the only trouble in his
case-especially with the out-siders,-is,
that the longer he holds his present position,
(for which everybody admits he is eminen-
tly qualified the stronger he grows. This
d. is no fault of Mr.. Eyerly, as his strong
fort is his merit as an officer, and we hope
he may never have fewer faithful friends
Mr. DANIEL LEE, was unanimously y
re.nominated for the Office of Register and
Recorder. NJ. Lee, has discharged the
duties of this Office, for the last three consc'
cutive years, ina manner generally salts
factory and was therefore re-nominated fol
his present position, without opposition
We trust he may be also be reelected
without competition.
MIR. ELIAS DIETERICK, a good
democrat and very clever citizen is nomina
ted for the Office of County Commissioner
His father, John Dteterick, Esq, of Rev
olutiary democratic stock, was membe,
of the County Board before the County
Seat was located at Bloomsbury, and made
an. excellent officer, as we have no doub
wiz be the ease of,his Son, the presen
nominee. Mr.. e. Dieterick, is a thrifty
farmer, good Businessman and sount
democrat. The strong support he received
in the Convention, is an unmistskable en-
,dorsement Of bis democracy by the "dem
.ocratic masses" and may be regarded a
certain guarantee of his triumphant elcc
ton.
JAMESSS. McNINCH, ESQ.,, our ex'
eellent young friend of Cattawissa, is tn,
candidate for County Treasurer. Mr.
McNinch, though yet quite young man
.is amongst the first businessmen of oul
.couDty--possessing good scholastic abili'
ties, unsurpassed financial qualifca iions
and large share of mercantile experience
lie has hosts of friends amongst the people
who know him best. We have no doubt
that lie viii make an efieieut officer
