" Biting A File"

On the I'd Of September, 1856, Mr..
BRECKINR1DGE made speech at Hamilton,
Ohio, in which be said

Connecticut Democratic state Con-
ventiOn.
HARTFORD. August 30.
The Democratic State Convention held
here yesterday, resulted in the nomination
of clear Douglas Electoral ticket.
The Breckenridge wing being in the mi
nority, good deal of i'll feeling, inter-
spersed with personalities, characterised the
debate between the two wings.
The following is the Electoral ticket:
Electors at large-Samuel Cole, of Hart
ford, and John j. Redasse.
Resolutions were passed endorsing the
Charleston Baltimore platform, and recon-
mending its adoption by the Democrats of
Connecticut, and endorsing Douglas and
johnson, as the regularly nominated candi.
dates of the Democratic party.
An effort was made to affix a clause TO
one of the resolutions instructing the dele
gates to vote for some other candidate than
Douglas, in order to defeat Lincoln; but
this was rejected, by ayes l52, nays 22o.
There will probably be a Breckenridge
Convention called, and another ticket pomi.

New York.

A few weeks ago the Republican journals
in New York were confident of carrying
their State for LINCOLN by large majority;
and none were more confident than the
Evening Post. Late events, however, are
beginning to snap the ties formed by the
cohesive attraction of public plumber, and
as natural consequence the Republicans
are wavering. This is what the Post now
says:
Our adversaries have taken courage from the
indications of disorder in our lines, and of bad
blood among our leaders, and are taking steps
to unite upon single electoral ticket in this
State, in the hope, by concentrating all the
energies OF their several parties and factions
in the nation upon this State, to defeat Lincoln,
and thereby to carry the election into the
House of Representatives. five
read the signs of the horizon Alright we have
now before US, and we say this in no croaking
spirit, one of the most desperate political con-
tests that has ever been fought in this State.
If every man must first settle who
is to be Postmaster General, who is to be Col
lector. and who is to be night-watchman, and
if the competitors have to first prove, in hand
to. hand fight, which is the better man before
they can point their swords at the common
enemy. our cause and our candidate are alike
in peril.
The Republican State Convention at
Syracuse resolved that it was wicked" for
their opponents to hold them responsible for
the atrocious corruption of the last Repub-
lican Legislature; that as they were pledged
to "arrest" Federal corruption, they could
shave nothing but condemnation to express
for official corruption at home" The reso.
luton was read amidst loud laughter. No
wonder! Oh shame! where is thy blush?

The New York Herald, but recently a

DR.. BARNARD, of the Labrador Expedi-
ton, says the New Orleans Bulletin, states
that on the barren and inhospitable coast of
that country, which shows an almost entire
absence of animal or vegetable life, the ex-
peditionists were subjected to excessive an
inoyance from mosquitoes, which abounded
in that high northern latitude to an extent
and reached a size unequalled in the broad
morasses of the Mississippi.

HE STATE FAIR.-The Managers of the
State Fair have laid out the grounds, and
selected the halls at Fort Smelling for the
Fair. The Picture Gallery, the Hall for
Domestic Manufactures, Horticultural De-
partment, including Floral Hall, Agricul-
trral Department, for the exhibition of farm,
dairy, and garden products, Mechanics
Hall, agricultural implements, including
plows, reapers, threshing machines, &c.
These rooms are very commodious, being
10 by 80 feet. The chapel is to be used
for farmers discussions, &C., in the even
ings, after the plan Of the Legislative Club,
last winter. The accommodations for those
who would like to remain over night at the
Fort, will be equal to those afforded at
hotels. The whole affair is being pushed
forward in the most liberal manner, and
the Directors are taking the surest way to
have it we'll attended and patronised by
making it worthy of the attention of the
people OF the whole State.
We believe all who attend, or who have
ever visited the Fort, will acknowledge
that no better spot could have been selected
in the State than Fort Smelling.

The TELEaRAPu.-The great convenience
and positive benefits Of the telegraph were
not fully appreciated until the line was in
operation, but are DOW evident to all of our
business men, and no fears are entertained
OF Its success in a pecuniary point of view.
Its convenience to all classes of the commu.
nifty will be universally acknowledged, even
during the period of navigation, and after.
wards it will be deemed almost indispensa-
BILE. We are glad to learn from Mr.. Gal
lup, the operator in this city, that already a
fair amount of business is offered, although
the wires have not yet been strung over the
river at Winona, and some delay is there
fore necessary at that point. We learn that
the rates for the transmission of messages to
all points, will soon be established, and the
people of all sections of the State, wishing
to telegraph, can transmit their dispatches
by express, to the offices of the line, and re
ceive replies as soon as received, through
the same channel.
