THE NEW YORK SUN.
ZELDA, Mor.zING. SEPT. 22,.ise5.
H,..I,, Of The lSrw York state Repubn-
can Convention.


Iag n.,Iue, OF the Syracuse Convention should
be auolsI a, "'rom fair to middiug." The tcke'
,sipd. Gcront, 40 far as political strength IS con-
eorncd. Gsuersl BARLOW, the nominee ior s''re'
tsry of state ia about the only man whose name ~
e,l,ul &c to str ngihcn the ticket. I-s o'hsr
eand.d.es may be very estin,ble mep'vsry souua
uuon party questions and fully competent for the
tesp,, tive Offices 70 which they ,'pire but what
aver reputation they may have local In Its char
.e,,r. and they cannot carry any considerable per-
.o,.l influence In selecting General BARLOW for
a., .,,d,,d.lssrer, however, the Republicans
nav. made a good choice II WAS ofcourss under
.,oos tia, General sLoouS's compe,itor must lie .
MILITARY man, and we doubt . moro popular 81
I,,ton could have been made from the ranks OF
our returned heroes. General BARLOW was
s-rkrown TO fame" when tho rebellion
broke cut. Ho enlisted in tie array a.
/. prv.is, and by virtue Of hisindoni,able energy.
g.llin,ry and pluck. he ssceud.d the ladder OF
promotion til he won the double stars Of Major
General. With regard 70 the resolutions, while
sbey are very long-too long b. hAlf-ihsre 10
nothing equivocsl about them. They cordially
endorse Preside nj Joussos's re-on,ruStion poliey
adopt the old Dsmocra c doctrine that the SAits are
FREQ 10 arrange their constitutional domestic insH-
su,ions 70 suit themselves and very coolly Lave
che Radicals out Of the reckoning. In oil this tho
hand Of the great political master, Mr.. WEED is
very plainly sppsrenL and the discontinue OF his
rival MI GnEKLEY. may be readily imagined. 1t 10
no wonder that the dispatch Of the latter TO tho
TsIBUrs 10 couched In bitter language, and II MI.
GEuLEY 10 correct In the statement that "there
wss in the Convention . majority u al least hfty
Irvfessed Radicals" II 10 only remarkable that
,shsre 10 not more Of the NORWOOD slemsnt In his
.on,, for ii virtual acknowledgement that Mr..
WED defeated him against the odds Of hfiy. The
entire proceedings u the Convention show that
sLs Radicals were out-genersled a. every point
According 70 Mr.. GRNELHY they mus, have been
.'i,morsBzed." In spesiing Il 1hcr conduct, Ii
says 'fhey had no adhesion or discipline, and So
were seldom enabled to profit by thsir strength
allowed devotion TO men 10 overbear attachment 10
principles" This cowArdice Of tho Radicals, when
snder IRE, speaks badly for their worthy drill
master. But taking the acton Of the Convention
altogether, the Republicans have no cause to com
plain. There was quarrel between The
rival factions. and 500 far - appears Il
abe public the tieks, and platform will receive ths
s,pdid endorsement OF the whole party. Com
pared with tho action Of the Democratic Conysn
non. we see no difference In the strength Of th
rtspsotivs platforms for in principle they are pre-
cisely tho ssmo-both endorse tue policy Of H.,
President aad there is no other issue AT stsko
Regarding the tickets, tho Democrats have tho Ad
vantage, a. their c,nd dates arc personally pOpul,
aud will carry an individual influence with II
election. Bu, the people now have both sll,
pIsinly presented 70 them, and the issue may /
safely left In their hands.
