THE LATEST NEWS,
MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH.
From Washington.
RECEIVED BY

Special Dispatch 10 The N l. iroune-
MIR. DOUGLAS IN VIRGINIA AND KENTUCKY.
The Dougas managers here are not without ap-
prehensions that their friends in Virginia may be
wbeedled into come compromise with the Breckin-
r dse men, The same sort Of fear appears to exist
in Kentucky, for the Douglas Democratic Conven-
ton recently held there took the extraordinary
ST. of appointing delegation to carry the greet
il of Kentucky to the Virginia Douglas men, who
are to assemble to morrow in State Convention at
StauDton. To-day, Miles Taylor, Chairman of the
Douglas National Committee, received dispatch
from Lexipgt 4, signed by J. o. Harrison and John
Jacks n, stating that distance and shOrtuess OF
time prevent them and probably the entire delega-
ton from discharepg that duty in person, but eI.
press the hope that the mother Commonwealth may
emulate the example of the daughter ia devotion to
the Union.
Gov. Wickliffe of Kentucky, the father of Mrs.
Holt, decea and her brother, ex.Gov. Wick
life of Louisiana have, account OF her illness,
been restrained from active, open effort for Judge
Douglas; but ayow their determination, at no
distant day, to address the people Of their respec-
i've Sthttt On pOilllCui Hsucs'
VACANT OFFICE PROMPTLY FILLED.
TIE President has made hot haste to appoint
Taliaferro Hunter, a relative of Senator Hunter,
Fourth Auditor of the Treasury. UnquestiOnaby,
the object is to please or appesse rather, Senator
Hunter, who has talked as if he had little or no
influence with the Administration. Not only is
such the private talk Of nearly every Democratic
Senator, but they add to it the seyerest denunci-
ations of the President and most of bis C,bnet.
For long time after Mr. Buchanaa's Inaugural
ton, Mr.. Breckenridge complained that he was
consulted in nothing and that his friends received
no appointments, etc. 1t is only within few
months past that he has had occasion to change
his tune. Most any of these ferocious assailants
of the President can be tanned down by the use Of
pap in their interests.

New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1860-08-16
THE SOFT STATE CONVENTION.
Both New.York Delegations Admitted.
THE TICKET NOMINATED.
The Fusion with the Bellies.

Specie. Disp.,ch to The n 7. Tdbuns
SYRACUSE, Aug. Is, 1860.
The Bellies made great noise In the streets
last night, but the procession was uesger and the
meeting small Hunt, Brooks & Co. did the
speaking, and the Softs furnished pow Ter, audi
ence, and cheers.
There was no strife for places on the State
Ticket, because there Sre no hopes Of success.
Therefore, Messrs. Kelley, Allen, aud Rho les were
nominated by acclamation, ard Mr.. Wright yir-
tua)b so.
Gov. Seymour was entbusi asticslly received by
the Convention this afternoon. He goes for Dir.
Douglas, not as the regular nominee, but as sort
of Peoples candidate. He fayors fusion with
Hunt.
Mozart Hall rejoices at the victory over Tam
mony. Tommany growls aud threatens.
Messrs Kelley and Rhodes are Spfts Messrs
Allen and Wright semi Hard. 1t isa stro,g ticket
but many Douglas Democrats say Mr. Brady will
draw largely from Mr.. Kelley.
II o'clock p. m.-Grest trouble is experienced in
forming the Electoral Ticket. Mr. Hunt with Mr.
Wood or Elk Gov. Seymour, ale on the slate for
Electors at large. Some object, however, and the
slate may be broken by morning. The City Demo
Gratis object to George B'jggs being On. But eight
or ten Huntites will certainly be on. The Breck-
inridgers say this will lose Douglas thousauds of
votes. Republicans here gladly accept the issue.
There is trouble about the State Tick t. The
HuDttes object that they have no representative
on it, The Douglasites say they understood the
Buntites didn't want any. The bargaining don't
woik smoothly. The HuLttes say the Doaglasltes
are too arrogant The Administration is cursed
On all sides.

Douglas Ratification Meeting in Albany.

ALBANY, July IL, 1s6O.-One of the most I'M
pressive meetings ever held in Albany n Y, was
witnessed last night at the ratification meeting of
the Democratic candidates, Douglas and johnson.
The Capitol Park, where the stands for speakers
were erected was literally filled to OVERLOOKING and
certainly 10000 people must have been out, the
crowd extending in a solid mass from the steps of
the Capitol outside State and Washington Streets
and extending down State street hill reaching near
ly to the Postofice at the foot of the street Not
one tenth of the people present could hear the
speakers from the platform, and in consequence
much confusion prevailed; but the meeting was
quite emphatic in its enthusiasm and earneastness.
During the whole evening State street was blaze
Of light from the delegations that did not arrive I'M
til late hour, and who could not get within reach
Of the stand The scene was one unsurpassed and,
indeed, unequalled by any demonstration ever seen
in the city at any political gathering
The meeting was organized with Mayor Thacher
for President Among the Vice Presidents were
Carrot T. Lansing. WIN. E. Blocker, Hon. Stephen
Clark late American State Treasurer, Josiah B.
Plumb, Henry H. Martin, ex Mayor Franklin Town
send, exMayor Eli Perry, James Edwards, Jeremiah
Osborne, Drastus Corning Jr., Recorder Austin,
and other prominent citizens.
Letters were received and read from Amasa j.
Parker, Hon. VIM. Kelly, Hon. Fernando Wood,
Judge Willard, of Saratoga Mayor Wood while
regrettng that absence on account of official duties
prevented his attending, says: 'At latter period
in the canvass shall, doubt have an opportuni-
ty to address the citizens of Albany" Speeches
were made by Peter Cagger Hon. w. A. Richard
son, of Illinois; Senator Goldman, Of Louisiana |;
Lyman Tremaine and Ira Shafer, Oh Albany.
The demonstration was admittedly great success
