Tho Convention, after organizing and
adopting a platform, nominated candidates,
among whom we find the names Of SAMUEL.
LEWIS (now deccased) for Governor, GEoaoE
Eiis, formerly Of this city, for Board Of pub
lie Works, and JACOB BRINKERHOFF
for Supreme Judge. True, this Convention
was composed mostly Of Delegates from the
Northern part Of the State, with here and
there one from Southern counties. True,
that The candidates nominated by this Con.
%vention received the great bulk Of their vote
in the Reserve aud other Northern counties
but let il also be remembered that Mr.. BRIS-
%KERHoFF owes his present nomination also
more to the influence and exertions of the
Reserve and Northern counties than 10 any
other section that many Of those who partici-
paied in the Free Soil Convention in 1851,
and labored for his nomination, we're dele
gates 10 the late Republican Convention, and
again labored for, and actually secured, his
nomination.
We hRve shown in the above, that the men
who vera concerned in the nomination Of
%BRNEERHoFF as the Free Soil candidate in
1851, are all now active in their support Of
the Republican candidates that most Of
them have been placed in positions Of honor
and trust by the Republican party, and that
some Of them were active participants in the
late Republican Convention. Thus much for
the men OF course, this, by itself, will not
amount to anything. These men could have
changed, and adopted more conservative
views, than they entertained in 1851. Thatthey
have not done so, we shall endeavor to prove
in a future article, by furnishing the resolu-
tons adopted by the two Conventions, and
showing TO our readers that they are similar
in spirit, If not identical in language-that II
the Free Soil resolutions we're evidences that
that party was welded to abolitionism, the re-
solutions of the late Republican Conventions
convict the Republican party of being similar.
" situated-that il the candidates standing
OH the Free Soil platform were unworthy OF
the vote Of the people of Southern Ohio, the
candidates standing on the Republican plat.
form of 1860 are equally unworthy Of such
support

Who Nominated RrinkerhOT In
1871

Some two weeks since We referred to the
fact that the present Republican candidate for
Supreme Judge-JAcoB BRISKERHOFF-was
the Free Soil nominee for a similar position
in l85l,-the same year that the Hon. PETER
ODLIN of this city was the Wing candidate
for the same office, In our former article we
asserted that many of the leading men who
urged Mr.. BRISKERHoFF's nomination in the
late Republican State Convention, and are
now advocating his election, we're the same
men who brought about his nomination and
supported him in 1851, when he was the Alb
lition nominee; and also that his position
on the Fugitive Slave Law, was the same then
that it is now, ut least in spirit, if not in Ian
guage. The correctness of our assertion was
called in question by some of our Republican
friends at the time. Since then we have TAX
en- the trouble to look at the proceedings of
the Convention Of 1851, and we find that
prominent among those who participated in
that Convention were JOSHUA r. GIDDNGs, L..
L. RicE, Hon. J. NJ. RooT, j. W. VANCE, IA
con HEAToN, j. +. AsPER, RUFUS P. SPALD-
ING, ALBERT G. RIDDLE, PHILoMoN Bliss,
Benz. F. HOFFMAN,, LYMAN W. HALL, j. C.,
VAUGHN, and J. A BlNFHAN.
These gentlemen have all been, and are
now, ardent and enthusiastic members of the
Republican organization. GIDDISGs is known
MS such throughout the entire country, and
was a member of the late Republican State
Convention. L. L. RICE now occupies a posi-
ton in the office of the present Republican
Comptroller of the State. Hon. J.. NJ, ROoT
is one of the Republican candidates in this
State for Elector at large, nominated for that
position by the late Republican State Conven'
ton. ]. NJ VANCE is a prominent Republi
can in Knox county, and was a member O
the late Republican State Convention. ia
cos HEAToS is now, or was lately, one of th'
Republican officers of Colambiana county. J
f. AsPER is now a prominent Republican law
yer in Warren, Trumbnll county. RUFUS =

we're active members Of the late Republics

placed in, and are now occupying official !

Negro Insurrection I'm Texas.

lFIbth nc oiihti AitAh7l HNhf JW9 itI
The destructive and mysterious fires that
occurred throughout our portion of the State
on the Sth inst, were a theme for speculation
until to-day some imputed their origin to the
Spontaneous combustion" of prairie matches,
caused by the excessive heat of that day, but
the conviction seemed to prevail that they
we're the result of preconcerted arrangements
set on foot by Abolition emissaries, who had
heretofore been expelled from the country.
That this latter position was correct, is veri-
fed by the subjoined letter from DR.. Pryor,
editor Of the Dallas Herald
DALLAS, July Is, 1860.
CAPTAIN DELIsLE-Dedr Sir | write in
haste, that you may prepare your people for
the most alarming state o~faflairs that has ever
occurred in Texas. On the Sth of July the
town of Dallas was fred, and the whole bust
ness portion entirely consumed. Every store
in town was destroyed. The next day the
Westinghouse of. j.. Eakins was burned.
After that the Westinghouse Of f. z. Nichol-
son was fred, but discovered in time to arrest
the flames. On Thursday the premises of
Grin Miller, with u large amount Of oats,
grain, &c, were totally consumed. This led
to ffe arrest Of some negroes and white men,
A most diabolical plan was then discovered TO
devastate this entire portion ofNorthern Texas,
extending even to the Red River counties.
White men, friends Of the Abolition preach
ers Blunt and Mckinney, who were expelled
from the country last year, are the instigators
of the plot. The whole plan is Systematically
conceived and most ingeniously contrived. 1t
makes the blood run cold to hear the details,
This whole country was to be laid waste with
fire, destroying all the ammunition, provis-
ions, arms, &c, to get the country in a state
r. ..l H.. 80 ,lAaN.A- 1n, l..
August to make a general insurrection, aided
aud assisted by emissaries from the North,
and persons friendly to themi in our midst Their
sphere of operations is districted and sub-dis-
tricted, giving to each division a close super
vision by one energetic white man, who con-
trolls the negroes as his subordinates. A reg
ular invasion, and n real intestine war. You
all, at Bonham, are in as much danger as we
are. BE on your guard, and make these facts
known by issuing extras to be sent in every
direction. All business has ceased, and the
country is terribly excited. In haste, yours
truly, CHAS. r. PRYOR.
Comment on the above would be superfu-
Gus; everybody will see the necessity of imme-
date energetic action, and a thorough organ
ization throughout the country, aud to this
end it is proposed that a meeting Of the citi-
zens of Fannin County be held in the Court
House at Bonham, at 10 o o'clock on Saturday
next, whom the subject will be fully discussed,
and measures adopted for future safety.
The fires that occurred on the 9Th inst. as
far as we are yet able to learn, are as follows:
DALLAs-The entire business portion of
the town, including every mercantile house in
the place. Loss 100000.
BELKNAP.-Eight large store-houses were
destroyed. The buildings were owned by Drs.
