ton. These resolutions were all adopted
with unanimity unparalleled in the his
tory Of Conventions. If this were
not so, Governor Morton would be
placed by the Gazette in the predica-
mcnt Of not having been nominal
ed by a State Convention but by mass
meeting of people-it might have been
nearly all from two or three counties, IN
stead of from all parts Of the State In
other words, it would compel Governor
Morton TO 20 before the people as the
nominee Of an outside gathering-and
not the Convention of delegates. 1t is
in such dilemmas the Gdzetfe involves
itself in its foolish efforts TO embitter
the opposition to Mr. Lincoln.
It was our intention to state a few
reasons why it was proper to instruct for
Mr.. Lincoln at our State Convention but
as our article is already too lengthy we

ArrExrroH.-The members Of the Thor
ington Guards will please notice the call Of
Orderly Jamison in another column.
The election Of officers for this regiment
on Saturday is matter that interests the
Companies which form it, IS well as the
public to certain extent. As to who the
officers shall be there seems to be but one
opinion, as far - we have been able to learn
in regard to candidates. For the Colonelcy,
Capt. Thorington seems to be the choice !;
for Lieut.. Colonel, Capt. fischer has the
preference we think, aud for Major, Asher
r. Golden will undoubtedly b the success
full candidate. This will make good ticket.
So far there are only six Companies in
this Regiment-no new ones having report
ed this week.
