HOlU Jacobs iC0S Nude and U9aet0de.
The Associated Press failed to give clear &C.
count of the way Jacobs was put aside after
he was nominated by the Democratic conven-
ton for Governor. A special correspondent
thus explains it:
An eccentric, white haired man, elected to
support Robinson from Saratoga county, arose.
His name was Patrick 81. Gowen. He said he
had been q soldier of Slocum, and loved him,
but he loved the Democracy more. He mDved
to nominate by exclamation John G. Jacobs. of
Brooklyn, the presiding officer. This was first
greeted with laughter, but COwen called on
tho secretary, Major Quincy, to put this ques-
ton.
At this grand demonstration was made by
the anti Robinson men. All Tammany Hall
was up, one third of the delegates and half the
gallery. The secretary, Major Quincy, put the
motion to nominate John G. Jacobs by accla-
nation, and declared it carried. Then the
storm of applause was tremendous, and contin-
ued nearly fifteen minutes, all the Tammany-
lists standing up, led by Dorsheimer and Sam
Cox, and all Jacobs own delegation sitting still
and Jber, with two thirds of the country dele
gates.
It was in the young ohairman's power to ex-
ecute a coup Get0t and make himself governor
of the State, or at least the. regular nominee,
and force the Robinson men to be the boilers.
Poor, ambitious and dependent, he might we'll
feel the color steal up his cheek; but by quiet
effort of self-restraint he remained motionless,
kept his place and refused to leave it. At last
he said: THE chair regrets that the secretary of
the convention has usurped the duties of the
chair before it had been given up. Under no
will the chair accept the nOmi-
nation for governor"

Col. Ingersoll's New Party Fully Organ
ized-Declaration Of Principles.
CINCINNATI, Sept. 14'-At to-day's session of
| the Liberal League the following resolution,
presented by Col. Ingersoll, was unanimously
| adopted:
Resolved, That we express the deepest SYM
pathy with D. M. Bennett and family for the
| reason that he has been convicted by religious
bigotry and ignorant zeal, and has been i'm
prisoned, and ia now languishing in the cell of
felon, when in truth and fact he has commit
| ted no offense whatever against any law of this
Aountry.
Another resolution was adopted that the
National Liberal League affiliate with all liberal
| bodies. A preliminary declaration and plat
form of the National Liberal party was adopt
| ed. It is very long and resolves that the gen.
eral motive of the National Liberal party is to
realize more fully than has ever vet bein done
the main object Of a government by the people
as expressed in the declaration of independence
and the preamble of the constitution of the
United States; that to secure these purposes
new party is necessary to administer and re-
form the whole national and state governments.
| The principles enunciated are equal and ex-
act Justice to all men of whatever state or per
suasion of religious or political belief, peace,
commerce and honest friendship with all ma
tions, and entangling alliances with none; the
support of the State governments in all their
rights as the most competent administrators of
! our domestic concerns, surest bulwarks against
Republican tendencies; the preservation of the
general government in its whole constitr,-
tional vigor, freedom of religion,
of the press and of persons under
the protection of habeas corpus and trial by
| juries impartially selected. Labor reforms of
various kinds is asked for, legislation against
tramps is condemned, reforms in currency, in
the use and occupation of land. female eman-
oiuation, universal compulsory secular educa-
ton, condemning the creation of corporations
except for public good and present methods
of legislation, advocating the election of all
public officers directly by the people, and favor
ing tho repeal of all Sabbath, sumptuary and
temperance laws. The Socialist element was
largely predominant in to-days session, and at
times the convention was exceedingly bolster

she would have also poisoned herself but
she did not have morphine enough left after

fault of the president of the society, Sam. E.
Adams. There is some truth in the first part
of this at least, for. notwithstanding the aver
