A very large majority of the Republi-

the nomination of Geo. I. Anthony for
Governor. He addressed the people OF

and made many friends. He is man Of
very considerable talent and has more
executive ability :han any man in the

The Republican State ticket is before
our readers. While local preferences
have not in all cases been gratified, the
general result is such as the party can

given to any ticket in the State will be
rolled up in November. We trust that
