UnTon State Convention.

UnIon State Convention.
Immense outpouring Of the .People-Grsat En-
/ lhusIasm-Strong and pular Ticket Nomina-
/ ted.
The Union Convention held at
/ Columbus on Wednesday last. it Is
universally conceded was the grand
est uprising and demonstration OF
! the people in behalf of a glorious
| cause ever witnessed II Ohio The
number in attendance was immense,
| the entire city swarming with hu-
man beings. The display of flags
was grand and inspiring bevond
anything of the kind we have ever
witnessed, the public and private
buildings being literally covered
with them-a feature In striking
contrast with the Convention held
on the 18th, on which occasion it is
said hardly National Flag was to
be seen. The number in attendance
may be Judged from the fact that
the railroads took in over $4,000
persons, while hosts came by canal
and every other means of convey
ance, one delegation from the north
east part of Franklin county alone
numbering over 1900 by actual
count.
Speeches were made by Senator
Wade, Gov. Tod, Gov. Dennison,
Messrs. Galloway, Campbell, Bing-
ham, Carey, Moody, Geiger, Gaddis,
McCook and others, and the utmost
unity of sentiment and the most un-
bounded enthusiasm prevailed.
Ex-Governor DENNIsON presided
over the Convention proper. which
assembled in the Atheneun, and
when the results of their balloting
were announced to the multitudes
in the State House Square the ap-
plause was such as has seldom been
heard.
We omit for lack of room the lists
of officers, committees on various
subjects, &c, and give the results
of the ballotings and the resolutions
