LiOh2--OUr Ticket.
The Democratic State ConvcntiC
which convened at Columbus on IL
9th inst, was the largest ever assemble
on a similar occasion. 1t surpassed IL
expectations of the most sanguinc of ii
Misunderstanding the number prcsen
the enthusiasm and ardor of the dele
gates, and the perfect harmony whic
characterized its deliberations. No on
could look ovcr the asscmblage, repre-
senting every county in the State, AM
not be satisfied that the eternal princi
pies of Democracy still live in the af
fections Of the people-and not believe
in his heart that the defeat we suffered
two years ago was but temporary, ant
that the party of Jefferson and jackson
possesses the ability and iron nerve to
hurl from power the ruthless invaders
of the laws of our State. 1t is evident
to every man in his senses that the
masses of the people impatiently await
the opportunity to reverse the decision
which is a foul blot upon the fair fame
of Ohio, because they see and feel that
they elevated to power a set of men
whose sole object is self aggrandiscment
The Democracy true to their past
mission, present for the suflrages of
their fellow-citizens, men of distinguish
ed ability and integrity, emincntly wor-
thy to fill the positions for which they
are named. They have been selected
as men competent and disposed to guard
well the interests of the State; men who
respect and venerate the Constitution
of the Republic, and are ever ready to
uphold and maintain it as the supreme
law of the land.
For Governor, the talented and pop
ular HENRY b. PAYNE, of Cleve-
land, whose name has been floating at
u masthead for some time as our first
choice, was chosen on the first ballot by
a handsome majority over all others.
He is a rising man-comparatively
speaking, young in years, but ripe in
experience and wisdom-has a pure and
spetless reputation-is an eloquent and
able speaker-an unfinching represen-
tative of democratic principles, and is
just the man to bear the Democratic
banner in triumph through the coming
For Lieutenant Governor, the
and gifted WM. II. LYLE,
of Cincinnati, was selected. He is an
able and sterling Democrat, and
is eminently fitted for the Office. Judge
WHITMAN, of Fairfield, was nomina-
mated for the Supreme Court. We be-
Iievc Mr.. Whitman has already been
before the public in several positions of
and honor. He has distinguished
himself at the Bar, in the Legislature,
md on the Bench; and is we'll qualified
discharge the duties of the Office to
which he has been nominated. For
Treasurer Of State, we have JAMES A.
NORRIS, of Monroe, who is an honest
md reliable man, and in whose election
he people of Ohio can rest assured
hey will not be GibSon-i=cd. For Sec
'etary of State, JACOB REINHARD,
IF Franklin, and for Board of Public
Works, A. L. BACKUS, of Lucas, we're
nominated. Both are popular and ju-
selections, and every way wor-
by the support and confidence of the
of Ohio.
This fellow Democrats Of Ohio, is the
Ticket presented for your suffrage on
he I'd Tuesday of October next. Let
IS get ready for action. Let US 60
Oddly forward, meet the monster Black
Iepublicanism, and crush it out forcv-
r. We have the power in our hands.
)ur enemies are already disheartened-
II their glorious visions of Democratic
efeat have vanished, and like criminals
hose sentence is pronounced, and
hose day Of execution is fixed, their
yes embrace only a general gloom
let US see to it that our energies are
OF wasted by s~upineness. Let Us grid
n our armor-entcr the conflict with c
old and fearless spirits-never think :
anything but success, and victory J
i'll once more crown the efforts of the I
liant democracy ofOhio. Abolitionism I
as became odious, and offcnds the nos
lis of honest men everywhere like the
lrcass of leprosy. 1t is a political I
pas, whose fruit is frightening to the t
sace and happiness of the State. Let l
5 then, in the name of the people of
hio, whose intelligence has been out
.gcd by fanatioism, rise once more, L
in other days, and show to the world l
Democracy is still the hope of q
&c honest masses.
