The State Convention.

"a resolution was introduced by Mr.. Gil
son, of Mahoning, endorsing the Admins
tration of James Buchanan, the committee
having failed to return any resolution on
that subject. A warm and somewhat in
temperate debate sprang up on the resolu-
tion of Mr.. Gibson; and the same was refer
ed to the Committee on Resolutions, who,
at the evening session, reported substitute,
which was adopted. 1t would have been
well, in our opinion, if the Committee had,
by its own action, prevented the necessity
of the introduction of Mr.. Gilson's resolu-
ton, and the proceedings had upou it,
This feature of the deliberations of the
Convention could well have been dispensed
with.-Ohio Statesman.
The minority of the Committee preferred
that nothing should be said in relation to
the Administration, rather than to "damn
it with faint praise" 1t was apparent that
no resolution endorsing the Administration,
generally, could pass either the Committee
or the Convention-and the minority de-
clined to be responsible for such scene as
Gilson's resolution created, by making a
minority Report. And after all to merely
endorse the personal patriotism and ability
of the President, which Gilson's only did,
was empty adulation, if not downright in
suit. The minority of the committee were
tolerably we'll satisfied with all the resolu-
tions, except those expressing a preference
for Douglas and the manner in which the
delegates should vote at Charleston, and
as there could be no doubt that large ma
jority of the convention was favorable to
Douglas, We thought it unwise to oppose
the report of the committee.
We believe the President can well afford
to bide his time. When the mists and fog
which the Dougles antilecompton furor has
cast upon his Administration, shall have
passed away, and the sober-second thought
of the people has fully weighed his admin
istrative policy, his name will loom up
along side of Jefferson, with equal efful-
gence.-C Coshocton Democrat.

The State Convention.

The Democratic State Convention, at
Columbus on yesterday, was largely atten-
ded. Hon. VIM. B. Wood, of Licking
county, presided. Resolutions in favor of
Stephen A Douglas, and declaring it to be
the sense of the Convention that all the
Ohio delegates at Charleston should vote
for his nomination, were adopted-yeas
24o, nays "a. A motion was then made
to make the resolution the unanimous voice
of the Democracy of Ohio, which after an
earnest and spirited protest against the in
justice of such a proceeding, was Withdrawn.
All the other resolutions reported by the
committee, appointed for that purpose, were
passed without dissent. The committee,
however, not having suppressed any express
sion of confidence or approval of the Natio-
nal Administration, Mr.. Gibson, of Maho-
ming, asked leave to offer resolution to sup
ply the omission. The ultra Douglas men
opposed the proposition with bitter denun-
Citations of the President. On call of the
counties permission was granted by vote
of sos yeas, TO 1O2 nays, 10 introduce the
resolution. The next move of the same
leaders was to dodge direct vote an the
resolution of endorsement by referring it
to the committee, on resolutions. This lat
ter move was carried by vote of 18O yeas,
to 149 nays. Just before the adjournment
of the Convention (say at 10 o'clock last
night) the committee reported substitute
(similar to that passed at the State Con-
vention in May last which was adopted
without material opposition.
The delegates elected on yesterday to
represent the State at large in the Charles
ton Convention, are George E. Pugh, Of
Cincinnati; Daniel P. Rhodes, of Cleve-
land; George w. McCook, of Steuben.ille;
and Hugh J. Jewett, of GAINESVILLE. The
opponents of Mr.. Douglas placed no can
didates for delegates before the Convention,
but cast their votes for such of the various
Douglas men in nomination as they respec.
lively deemed most judicious.
Taking into account the entire action oi
the Convention of yesterday, it has i'm.
proved the strength or chances of Mr.
Douglas. He has an unsafe set of leaders
in Ohio, and their intolerance towards
their opponents, and their slurs, illtemper,
and abuse of Mr.. Buchanan because his
friends don't all bend the knee to the Hi
nois Senator, show bad genersship and an
absence of all iberalty of feeling.-Ns~-

Jenkins was noted for his courage and
his vixen of wife. He was not afraid
of man or of his wife either. His friends
had often tried to scare him but had al
ways failed. His wife's brother tried one
night, fixed himself up in the most ghost
ly style possible, and stationed himself in
lonely piece Of wood through which Jen-
kins had to pass on his way home. The
pretended ghost had scarcely settled HIM
self in his position, when jenkins hove in
sight, and came wbisiling along unconeern-
ed as usual. Suddenly the ghostly figure
confronted him, and in a sepulchral voice
commanded him to stop. Jenkins did so,
and after regarding his companion for a
moment, said, with the utmost GOODNESS:
"I can't stop, friend; if you are man,
l must request you to get out Of the way
and let me pass; if you are the devil, come
and take supper with me--I Married your
sister"

"this is quite net rain" The clergyman,

INAUGURAL ADDRESS
WILLIAM DENNISON,
GOVERNOR OF OHIO.

DELIVERED BEFORE THE SENATE AND HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVES, JANUARY Q, 1860.
Daily national Democrat., 1860-06-20

READY TO DIE FOR PoLYGAMY.-The Noun.
taineer, the organ of the Mormon Church. is
very indignant at the Congressional bill
against polygamy, and says:
If the course of the citizens of Utah was
one Of policy, devoid of principle. the track
would be clear and easy one Plurality of
'S'vsS has been the bug bear-the hobby of
dispute. Let us once reduce the rule to blu.
rality of Tomen. and the maternity of illegiH
macy--the throwing out upon the world a
host OF unacknowledged paupers-and all
would be smooth, fair sailing. We decline
the dastardiy alternative, and pronounce our.
selves polygamists in principle and in prae
tice the honest fathers of honestly -begotten
children, and their Protectors, if necessary,
with our lives. Hosts may overshadow and
crush vs. and sharp sabres and bayonets plow
out our graves. We stand on our birthright.
and place ourselves under the protection of
4he God of Abraham, and our Constitutional
prerogatives
Daily national Democrat., 1860-06-20

ADDING INSULT TO INJURY.-Not only have
the opponents of Mr. Seward forever des-
troyed his political hopes, but they heap
abuse upon his best friend. The Buffalo
Commercial Advertiser, thus hits off Mr.
Weed, the best and truest friend Seward ever
had, and to whom he is indebted for halfhis
success as a statesman:
The contest at Chicago was between
Thurlow Weed and Horace Greeley Focb
OF these threw themselves, with their whole
heart, into the contest. The ono in oror,.
step he took among the delegates was rec.
ognized as an honest man acting as ba Le-
lieved for the best interests Of his Marty
laboring TO defeat Mr.. Seward from n con.
selenllous conviction that in the doubtful
States he would drag down the ticket into
inevitable failure. On the other hand. Thur
low Weed went to Chicago. fresh from the
most notorious and abominabe corruptions
in Albany. He worked not so much to
make MIR. Seward the successor of James Blu.
chanan, as to make himself the successor of
Cornelius Wendell. Delegates could not fail
to recognise the difference between the two
men, and the strongest argument employed
against Mr.. Seward was, that his election
would transplant Thurow Weed and his
lobby from Albany to Washington, and en-
tail disgrace upon the party from the day it
entered into power. Said a prominent Re
publican yesterday. and he spoke the senti-
ments of thousands-'W owe Mr.. Seward
everything; he founded the party and built
1t up to greatness; our debt to him is meal
cuable; 6ut ace 'cont pay it in hard cash to
