TRENTON, N. j. Aug "a.
The Democratic State Convention met
to-day, and was the largest and most
stormy ever held here There were 1000
persons present during the session. Six
ballots were taken, when E. r. V. Wright
of Hudson County, was nominated for
Governor. The next highest competitor
was Charles Shelton, of Mercer Coun-
ty.
The Lecompton and Anti-Lecompton
delegates from Sussex had long and te-
dous fight regarding their right of seats
in the Convention. Finally the difficulty
was settled by the withdrawal of both par.
ties. Resolutions were adopted, favoring
the principle Of popular sovereignty, op-
posing the opening of the slave trade, &c.
The nomination of Mr.. Wright was made
unanimous. There is great rejoicing
among Mr.. Wright's friends over his sue.
