State will echo the hearty enthusiasm which
greeted the nomination of AIr Jacob and
go to work in earnest for his election Mr..
Camden's name was presented to The Con-
veDtion, but wus Immediately Withdrawn,
aud Mr.. Davis refused TO allow bis pame
to be presented 10y his friends. Both these
gentlemen, with all their friends, were
heartily in favor Of Mr.. Jacob, aud the vel
kin rang with prestige of victory when his
name was announced. The friends of Mr.
Hall, as a compliment to that gentleman,
placed his name before the Convention,
but on the first ballot Mr. Jacob received
more than three fourths of the votes cas-,
and he was at once declared the unau imous
choice of the Convention.

NoMINATED.-John j. Jacob, Esq, Of
Hampshire County, received the Bomina-
ton for Governor, at the Charleston Com

aud reflects honor on the delegates who

Mr.. Jacob to DO au honest, upright man

magistrate of West Virginia; and il the
control of The State Government is to fall

GF'The Conservative State Ticket nomi
mated by the Charleston Convention, of Sth
instant, we gladly place at the head Of our
columns to-day. The nominations of two
gentlemen from this Senatorial District for
eminent positions, may well awaken the
pride and demand the gratulations of our
people.
For the Conservative Ticket brought out
at Charleston, We invoke the earnest, hear.
ty support of every man who desires the re.
peal of odious, tyraunical, oppressive laws
that now defacc the statute book of West
Virginia, at once detrimental to her every
matcrialintcrest,a and subyersive of the rights
Of so many Of her disfranchiscd citizens.
Let US engage in The coming contest, de-
tcrmned to win, if energy aud sincere faith
in righteous cause may avail to effect so
glorious consummation. Let US rcmem.
Der the important consequences involved );
keep ever in mind the principles and rights
we have TO viudicate, as manfully, cheer
fully and hopefully we advance to meet the
responsibilities, the toll and the event Of 4
political canvass probably more important
than has yet occurred in our young State :!
Upon each and every man there rests some
share Of the responsibility, and patriotism
demands a just performance Ct duty, in
this crisis, from all of US. In any event,
the consciousness of duty faithfully per
formed affords the proper consolation of a
true and honest man.
The unity Of feeling and purpose mani,
tested in the Convention are of good augu-
ry. Let.us 1eorh -lcorh--lroyh- in
bis own appropriate sphere, and glorious
success may crown our common, patriotic
ard most laudabie endcayor5
The Radical Convention will be held at
Parkdrsburg, on the 22ud instant, and 50
soon as its Ticket is presented, the canvass
will probably begin, and, we suppose, be
conducted with the greatest animation -
Certain wo arc, that the best and ablcst
men in the Conservative ranks, throughout
the State, will devote their time, their tai.
cnts, their best efforts, 10 striving for her
redemption from the cruel sway that now
60 paralyzes her energies and degradcs her
people Add may tho success Of that right
cous causo in which they arc engaged be
their proper aud sufficient reward
