to the recent Democratic State Convention
in Ohio, following the example of their Bal

from the Eonxention- on the adoption of q,
resolution -favoring Douglas and Johnson.

-"LITTLE DELAwARE."-There is hope
for this little State. AT State Convention
held the other day, an electoral ticket was
nominated as follows: John R. Latimer,
James Green and George r. Fisher. With
the pro-slasery vote divided between Breck-
