THR STATE TICKET.

Win pride ana pleasure we point 10 tne tlcket
so happily and encouragiDgly placed in nomi'
nation by the two patriotic Conventions held
at Syracuse on Wednesday last. 1t CON-
biucs every element of strength, is made up
of able men, represents all phases Of politics,
and, better than al faithfully reflects the senti-
ments aud the impulses Of the 10y al heart of the
first State in the Union. It is not party
ticket, but the Peoples ticket. 1t is the legt-
innate offspring of patriotism, aud not the mere
spawn of debauched partisanship. Its nominees
are pledged only to o vigorous and UncomProms-
ng prosecution of the war which the Federal
Government is waging to crush the Southern
rebellion. There is 10 reason why every friend
of the Constitution and the Union should not
support this ticket, heartily aud with his whole
SOUL and do his utmost TO defeat every other
which he may find standing in the way Of this
grand movement Of the people.
OF the persons composing the ticket, but little
need be said. In this crisis, the name of Daniel
S. Dickinson is tower Of strength. Always a
Democrat of the straitest sect, he has risen
superior to the obligations Of party, and has de-
voted his name, his prestige, his talents, his tire
less energy, to the cause of his imPeriled coun.
try. We were apprehenslye that he would not
take nomination; but though his personal in
clinatons were decidedly averse to entering the
field as candidate, he has consented to yield to
the general wish, and will accept the position
rendered to him with so many marks of popular
appreciation. Mr.. Dickinson has Il reputation as
wide as the country, and the services he is now
rendering the patriot cause in this State will
give its friends renewed courage and strength all
over the land
! Mr.. Ballard is highly respectable lawyer of
/ Cortland County, man of irreproachabe char.
|, acter till within month q member of the Soft
Democratic State Committee, and warm support
er of Mr. Douglas during the last Presidential cleo
| tion He has stood among the leaders of his wing
,:of the party, and never till now failed to co0pe-
rate with Richmond, Cagger, Church, and the
Spolticians of that school. But, being patriot
s.ls well as politician, be, like Judge Tremain
elt that the duties he owed to his country were
) more imperative than the claims of the party,
Llnd therefore lie has thrown his weight without
4 iesitatlOn into the scale of liberty and law.
i Mr.. Robinson, who is nominated for the re.
4 ponsible Office OF Controller, has for two or
y,hree sessions, represented Chemung County in
She Assembly, where, as Chairman Of the Com
kattee on Ways and Means, he proved himself
( n able debater, and well yersed in the financial
fairs of the State. lie was an honest, fear
ksss legislator the yigilant foe of all schemes of
korrIption, and the terror of vena and profit
ate lobby. He is Republican of Democratic
sntecedents.
Mr.. Lewis the nominee for State Treasurer,
,yas recently Controller of the City of Brooklyn.
lie was elected to that post BY the American
party, and discharged the OnerOus duties Of the
office with efficiency and ability. Mr. Aberger
is the Mayor of Buffalo. He is of German ex.
traction, and entered the Republican organization
from the Democratic party. Mr. Tappen was
an accomplished member Of the Assembly of
I55s, is well known in this city as a lawyer of
high standing and has honorably filed the
Office OF Public Administrator. lie was
Douglas Democrat. Mr.. Taylor the candidate
for State Engineer is skillful member
of his profession and well acquainted with
our public works. His residence now is in
Utica, where he LOlds the Office of Resident
Eoeineer uuder the Canal Board. He will per-
form the duties of the station to which he is
nominated with scrupulous regard to the in-
terests of the State rather than to the profits of
contractors. The clash between Mr.. Talmadge
and Mr.. Bruce, for the Office of Canal Commis-
soner (shOrt term, will doubtless be amcaby
arranged, since it was well understood that Mr..
Talnladgc, whose bearing in the Peoples Con-
yention was eminently patriotic, does rot de-
sire the position William b. Wright, the
nominee for Judge of the Court of Appeals, now
adorns the bench of the Supreme Court in the
Third District. He is an able and learned jurist,
