New YORK BRECKENRIDGE STATE CONVEX.
TIoN.-SYRACUsE, August S.--Thc Breckin,
ridge State Convention assembled here yes.
terday. Hon. Henry S. Randall was chosen
permanent president, together with hume
rous list of ice-presidents and secretaries
During the afternoon a ticket of presidential
electors was nominated, and committee on
resolutions reported long series. They re-
affirm the position Of the old line democracy,
recognizing in all the opposition to that par
ty Including ant-Lecomptonisml the sim
pie question whether the Union shall be pre-
served for white men, Or destroyed on account
of negroes. They oppose the position of both
Lincoln and Douglas on territorial questions;
endorse the platform Of tue Maryland Insti-
tute Convention: endorse the administration
Of President Buchanan, and ratify the nom
nations of Breckenridge and Lane, regard
ing them as the only regular democratic can
didates. The 9th charges the New York
delegation with causing, by their action at
Baltimore, the present disruption OF the dem
ocratic party. The 1th characterizes the
nomination of Douglas and johnson rs ir-
regular and not binding on democrats. The
Sth urges the concentration of the vote OF all
the democrats of the State on the Breckin-
ridge ticket, believing that the vote of this
State will decide the election. They predI-
cate such belief on the assumption that the
Southern and Pacific States will go for TIE
said ticket. The convention adopted the
above resolutions, and nominated James T.
Brady esq.,, for Governor The convention
adopted \ resolution empowering the State
committee to hold Il conference with the
II -. Il. IL,
18th.
The New York Herald of yesterday says:

lions in North Carolina, Kentucky and Mis-
souri, to warrant the opinion that IN the Pres
dental election Of November the Democracy
will lose all the border slaves States from
Missouri to Maryland. Tennessee. also, may
be added to the number swinging round
to Bell and Everett, with the remarkable
changes which are going on in the great p"-
litcal tidal currents of 1860, IN the South

South Carolina stands alone in her atti-
tude in the Presidential election. Not a

ANEW USE FOR THE GREAT EASTERN
The New York Tribune has made the dis
covery which it publishes in the following
article. that the Great Eastern can find regu-
lar employment us liner between Portland
and England, chiefly by carrying live stock.
If So our Southern project Of employing her
to carry cotton, tobacco aud breadstufS
from the Chesapeake, may possibly stand u
chance to he seriously damaged by these
o.tcd hanjm3S of the Tribune. But we
should think such cargo would hardly pay,
and that n less costly ship of rather smaller
size would answer the purpose just as we'll.
The Tribune says:
If the enthusiasm at the South iii favor Of
the direct haje--which occasionally blazes
up for ii season, and then fades away almost
into iorgetfulness-is not more worthless
than 'boS4," the effort should be made at
once to convince the Tribune that the mis-
sion Of the Great Eastern is of higher impor-
lance than the vocation of a cattle droger -
