THE STATE CONVENTION.

"
Our readers will 6nd the tuil proceedings
of the State Convention held yesterday in our
paper Of to-day. We have beer an attendant
Of State Conventions fer over fifteen years,
and can truly affirm that we have never seen u
fuller or more able Convention assembled at
the seat Of government. Every county was
fully represented, aud judging from the dele
gates, by the ablest men in the party. The
proceedings were harmonious, and although an
excited struggle took place for the Office OF
Auditor General, everything passed off pleas
antly, and as soon as the successful candidate
announced, The unanimous satisfaction
seemed 10 be frem the lotion Of the heart
Thomas t. Cochran, the nominee for Audi
tor General, is i gentlcman well known thro'-
out the State, aud in his own neighborh0od has
acquired au estimation ana standing which any
ulan might envy. lie is kRoscn 10 be an honest
man, without any peculiar boast Of 1t on his
part,l which is the best recommendation so
particularly necessary fer the responsible post
OF Auditor Genera. &!r. e. has always beer
hard working opponent Of the RuchaDan De-
moeraey, and lie deserves to be rewarded by
those whom lie has so faithfully served ou va
rious occasions. lie represented his own
county on the ador Of the Senate for three
years, and lie can point with pride to tie rec
ord Of that body lis opponent of the Soap
CoaUentloa," Richardson j.. Wright, will iud
honest Tom Cochran hard nag 10 beat, and
he may prepare himself to be lett in the back
ground to the sure Of $4,000. LecomPton
nor old Buck will he able TO save Liul.
Gen. Wu,. H. Klein. sometimes called
Clancy Jones Kein,) is the nominee for Sur
atr.r
over tie State as The successor of that man who
had so ofteu the houcF TO diue wisa the Presj
dent. Mr. Joues. lie served in the last Con-
gress, and distinguished himself by his allie
Tariff speech. lie has always been known as
the friend OF The poor aud we are certain that
he viii bc remembered hy the Workingnen Of
"OlG BeEks" on the seeund Tuesday IN Oc1o-
ber pext. lie viii make an honest and indus
friops officer, aud biz election is beyond doubt.
Several worthy ware seemingly sacr,-
fce4, and W. can only regret that tie party
Lad nos more P9sts Of bonur and proEl 10 be-
stow Our PARTY eau boast Of such men as
Efarc;5 Jorlan, JoIu VI. Sullivan, Geo. Y.
Lswrepce, Z. S. Foster, ii. W. Snvder aud
Richard Irwin, and we are sure that every one
OF tLem will at once 90 to work and labor for
the titLet nominated yesterday most faith
fully.
Tie opposition party IS ALREADY terrified with
the nominations made, and We eau predies
glorious triumph on the second Tuesd y OF Oc-
toter next.
Our own distinguished Senator in Congress
was daly noticed in the proceedings, aud ii
was NANTES, that the Convention was alnlost
unanimous in his favor Whel the resolution
eE6oysjuc his eorrsn in Conor.Ss was rFad =
universal feeling Of joy prevailed. Whilss,he
Secretary was reading it, he was Interrupted
with loud huzzas aud claPpirg Of hands. Psov-
ing beyond doubt that his own State will press
his name foI a nomination, b national Cou-
ventioa. aud insist npon it. II Pennsylvania
presents an uabroken trout at that time, tie
nominstion Of General Cameron for President
will be beyond dispute. -Har. Telegraph.
