Tanrmany Hall Democracy.

SARATOGA, N. Y, July 23.-The Shakspear
hall State committee met at the Grand Unior
hotel, and was called to order by Hon. J. II
COLBY, chairman. The roll was called, eacf
member answering to his name in person or by
appointed substitute. Secretary Skeels present
ed the designations of Presidential electors
nominated at Shakespeare hall, Syracuse, in
April, 1880, which had been forwarded subject
to action of the committee. The following
resolution was then adopted:
ReSolued, That while our constituents had
no part in the nomination of the electoral tick.
ct headed by Hon. Abram s. Hewitt, we recog,
nize that in voting for that ticket they will
vote for our national candidates. whose success
would be jeopardized by retaining two electoral
tickets, and we therefore accept the resigna-
tions of the gentlemen nominated as electors
of the Shakespeare hall convention, and deter
mine that the union aud harmony of the party
will be best served by omitting to fill their va
csncies.
ADDRESS To The PARTY.
A committee consisting of Hon. John Kelly,
". ". Wright. E. s. Jenny, A. s. Page, Fred.
L. Westbrook, John Fl. Colby and R. M.
Skeels, presented an address to the Democrats
Of the State which was adopted. 1t says,
among other things. that the nomination of
Hancock, the sol6ier-statesman of PenDsyl-
vania, has lifted the whole party above en-
barrassing local and State distractions, to a
broad, national ground, and has biotted out
past alterations by grand hopo. There is
now but one party, one cause, and one
work in which all Democrats should
heartily unite, and to which they
should devote their utmost zeal. Let past
alterations be forgotten and buried forever.
Let everything that has tended to divide our
counsels and cmbitter those who should CO.
operate be obiterated.
We heartily commend the electors chosen at
our recent State convention held at Syracuse
for their voluntary designations in favor OF the
electoral ticket headed by the name of Hon.
Abrsm s. Hewitt. Let everything be done to
show our brother Democrats in this and other
States our
SUPREME DEVOTION
to the great cause all true Democrats have at
heart and the result will meet our most san
guine expectations.
Henry D. Purroy then offered the followi ng
which was adopted;
WHEREAS, the wise and patriotic action
of the Democratic National Convention
recently assembled in Cincinnati in plac-
ing before the people of The Union
as candidates for President and Vice
President of the United States, General w. s.
Hancock and Hon. W. Fl. English, has settled
all differences which have divided the Demo
cratic party upon national issues in this State.
