OUR STATE CONVENTION.


The Republican Unonists Of our State hold their
nominating Convention at Syracuse day after TO-
morrow. The list OF delegates chosen includes the
names of Hon. Calvin T. Hulburd and Judge A. b.
James of st. Lawrence. Senators Low of Sullivan,
Sessions of Chautauqua, Speaker Tremain Of Albany,
Geo VIM. Curtis of Richmond, Waldo Hutchins,
Charles s. Spencer and John II. White of this City, c.
w. GODDARD and Col. Stewart l.. Woodford of Kings,
and many others widely and honorably known. The
Convention will be one of the strongest aud fullest
that ever assembled in State and its deliberations
and results will go far to dissipate any remaining
doubt that New York. however tried, will stand firm
by the cause of Liberty and Loyaty-the cause
which she has upheld In the last three Presidential
Elections, and for which her Wadsworth and so many
other gallant SOFAS have joyfuy given their lives.
We believe the Convention will conclude its work
on the day ofis assembling. There but four State
Officers to be selected and the district conventions
have indicated very general resolve that Gov FEN
TON shall be renominated. The only rival name that
have seen or heard suggested is that of Senator
EZRA CORNELL Of Ithca--one OF the best men IN
this or any State and enc whom the people will yet
rejoice TO honor. But the district conventions have
indicated so general wish that Gov. Fenton should
be renominated that we do not anticipate serious
contest.
The incumbents of the three subordinate stations
are oil good Republicans and personally pOpular yet
the fact that they live substantially in one section OF
the State renders the denomination of all OF them i'm
probable. Hence the of several true men have
been suggested for each positon-iAcuding these:
For Lisat Gor0nor-THoaAs G. ALyoRD 1.-THE inoumbeupi
Hon. WIN A. WHEELER Franklin;
Hon. CHAUscEY NJ DgPRw. Westcheser;
Hon. JoHs STANTON GOULD Of CoUmblai
Gen. HIRAM wALBRIDoR. City;
Col STEWART l.. wooDFoRD Kings.
For Canal Comm'r-Gen BENZ i. BRUCE (he inoumbent;
Gen. THO. u. GATgs Of Ulster Co.
For Prison Tsspeetor-Dr JAMES X BATES QncumbenD;
Col OBAIlAH J. DOWNING Queensi
Hon. CHARLES c. LgIoH. City.
Mr. Wheeler has served with honor In the Legisa-
ture and in Congress, and is likely TO come to the
Convention with strong support from the Northern
Counties Gen. Gates has served through the War
with distinguished gallantry, been conspicuous
in several Of the great battles of tho
Army of the Potomac and is very capable and wor-
thy citizen. Col Downing after making noble record
in tho field, was chosen to our last Assembly. and
was one of tho purest and sblest members of that body
Col. woodford is widely known most eloquent
and effective speaker for the Republican csusej aud,
having done his best to elect Mr. Lincoln he entered
the volunteer army aud helped fight through the War
for the Union being of the first 10 raise the Ma
tional flag over the ramparts Of Charleston. The
Others nrmed above have commended themselves By
honorable efforts to the favor of then fcllow-citizens
Among such candidates. it will be scarcely possible
that the Convention should not select a worthy aud
acceptable ticket.
