TIE TEMPERANCE AND FREEDOM TICKET.
For Governor Gerrit Smith, Of Madison; for
Lieut Governor, Sidney A. Bears, OF Kings; for

Inspector, Silss T. Fyleri of Madison
OF these the Freedom ticket is nominated on eI-
IRENE abolition principles. The Black Republicans
and Americans agree in opposing the extension of
slavery and in most of their other principles but
fell out when they came to make nominations,
whether the Know NOihi1gs will not finally come
into the support Of the Black Republican nominees
for the sake Of defesting "the pro. slavery Demo-
crscy" as their organs call it, remains to be seen.
The New York Tines and the Tribune are attempting
to bring about that result, while the Know EothiDgs
are probably trying to extract from them con
oession, in the shape Of small share Of the spos,
before completing the coalition. Speaking Of the
Republican and Know Nothing, conventions at SYRIA
suse, the New York Tines (Republiean) says:
To citizens Of other States, and possibly to some
unsophisticsted persons at home, the persistent
separation Of the two Conventions at Syracuse may
seem an inexplicable mystery. There was no essen
tisl or even important difference IN their aVoHed
principles. Each was sensible that its own party
alone either could not carry the State, or at least
that the danger Of defeat was imminent and large
majority Of the delegates in each sincerely de-
srous Of union But in the face Of all these facts,
union was unattainAble.
The result is another proof Of the power which
mastery leadership is capable Of exercising over
the mere democracy of numbers. There were few
sdrot politicians in the Republican Convention who
had determined, for Of their own, that there
should be no alliance with the Americans and through
the influential arts Of management they prevailed.
The Americans, by holding their Convention at the
same time and place in which the Republicans held
theirs signed practical willingness to unite; and
in its earlier stages the concilatory spirit which
animated the latter far prevailed to induce the
appointment Of Conference Committee With
near approach to unanimity this Committee agreed
with similar one from the American Convention
But before the report could be adopted more rigid
discipline began to be apparent among the Repubh
cans and although the basis of union was substan-
TALLY agreed upon, and understanding In respect
to the ticket entered into the Republicans in dsre
gard of these premises, proceeded to nominate
full ticket Of their own. This sctiOn necessitated
similar nominations by the Americans, and the re-
suit is before the public.
