SPEECH OF DANIEL tLiMANs
The American Delegates to the Ctica Convention
held little meeting Of consultation at No. lS5 Spring
street on Saturday evening. DR.. Samuel Hale pre-
sided, and &. Carson, esq, acted as Secretary.
The CHuRMAN stated that there would be several
parties ut the Utica Convention, one faVoriog a
straigbt-out ticket one in favor of selecting from the
other tickets one favor of ndorsing the Republican,
one in favor of ipdorsing the Democratic ticket, and
one in 'svor of no nomination at all. 1t WAS highly
desirable that the New York delegation should deter
N inc upon its course and should be unit ut tho
Convention.
Mr.. Il. +. Andrews thought il important that G
strong Canal ticket be nominated.
Mr.. +. C. WAGsER moved that the delegation de-
eide to vote for the nomination of no man not already
nominated lie thought that all the delegates were
ready for that. Fourteen out of the seventeen Dis
trcts represented here.
The Hon. DANIEL ULLmAs then said:
This raises question that has a bearing vastly
beyond the walls Of this hall in which We are Assem-
bled. Sir, for one have long been known "a poll
tican who has desired to make union, 70 far Is my
limited powers could compass 1t, between all the sec

United States hs. could be brought to cooperate upon
Il common platform OF general principles, while they
might differ az TO any minor questions that could be 10

say, Zone OF them are best; say some OF them ara
beter; cay that you those men, there soma
Of them that are much worthy Of choice than
others. Under circumstances can posslb bly, vote
for such Mr.. Tresnaine, candidate for Attor-
ney of the State OF New York. be cause he has
never any circumstances, failed 10 the most
foul-mouthed abuse agans the American party; and
vote for Mr. Church, tao Present Controller
Of thjs State, because he mas always opposed the
Ere CsIal in all its loading points. He opposed

ing Of that Cana from feet to z. He threw on MIN
all the sarcssm that his very limited ability could
enable him 10 command, which Mr. Ruggles met with
power the. was perfectly irresistible. There is,
therefore, Sir other cctea Tor 10 pursue except
that Which will place US upon entirely independent
gounds-to take from either one Of those tickets

them, and 70 keep ourselves free from any sort OF
