354. which was majority of all the votes
cast.
There was warm feeling in the con-
vention for Mr.. Chase, but, failing to get
the united support of his own delegation,
of course his nomination was out of the
question.
AT HOME AGAIN.
The Republicans of Ohio again met in
State Convention on the 18th day of June,
1860, for the purpose of nominating a
State ticket. Judge J. M. Palmer, of
Hancock County, presided temporarily,
General E. r. Eckley, of Carroll County,
was made permanent Chairman. Jacob
Brinkerhoff was nominated for Supreme
Judge on the first ballot, as was Levi
Sargent for Board of Public Works. For
Attorney General James Murray, OF
Wood County, was nominated on the
second ballot.
For Senatorial Electors Frederick Has
saurek, of Hamilton, and Joseph M. Root,
of Erie, were selected. The delegates
from the First and Second Congressional
Districts appointed as their District
Electors Benjamin Eggieston and Will
lam M. Dickson.
The State Executive Committee for that
year was also appointed at that time, and
was as follows: George NJ. Parsons, w.

upon time and place for holding Ma
tlonal Convention of the Republican
party, for the nomination of President
and Vice-President.
AS the birth of the Republican party of
the State of Ohio was an important epoch
in the political history of the State,
have thought it advisable to give its first
utterances in full.
Brief as the platform is, its whole gist
is in these few words: "We will
RESENT THE SPREAD OF SLAVERY
Under whatever shape or color it may be
attempted" Lewis D. Campbell was de-
lighted with the platform, while old man
Giddings said ne thought it was pretty
weak food for men who had barred their
breasts to the slave power for twenty
years, but still he accepted the situation
and took his position with the cohorts of
freedom on that simple little declaration
OF principles.
In order to give the readers of the EN-
oUIRER a proper idea of the spirit of an
tagonism that existed among the men,
bers of the fusion convention of 1855
probably can't do better than to give the
proceedings Immediately preceding the
nomination for Governor.
PROCEEDINGS.
The convention resolved to proceed to
the nomination of candidates for the sew
eral offices, when the Rev. Edward Smith
rose, and said he held in his hand reso-
luton which he wished to offer before
they proceeded to balloting. [Cries OF
ssOut of orderp' 500 homep "Be stillp'l
The motion to proceed to the nomina-
ton of candidates was reconsidered, and
Mr.. Smith permitted to proceed.
Mr.. Smith then proceeded to preface
his proposition in very able speech, al
ternately throwing charge OF hot sho'
into the ranks of the friends of the two
prominent candidates for Governor
which caused a good deal of confusion
The gentleman was about closing his
speech with a very handsome compliment

to the American party, when, in accord
ance with the intolerant spirit which had
all the time been evinced by the Chase
men, he was compelled to stop and pro-
ceed TO the reading of the proposition,
which was as follows:
Whereas, the result of the contest in
Ohio between the friends of freedom and
slavery is of vastly more consequence to
the people we represent, to the country,
and to posterity than the fate of men,
and whereas there seems to be a conflict
as to men merely, which threatens to
destroy that harmony which ought to
prevail in this body, and to put in
jeopardy the success of great principles,
Therefore,
Resolved, That we, the representatives
of the people of the State who are en-
listed in the cause of freedom, deem it
expedient to withdraw, and do hereby
withdraw from the canvass for Guber-
national candidacy the names of the
Hon. Salmon p. Chase and the Hon.
Jacob Brinkerhoff.
Mr.. Giddings regretted that any one
had taken SO extraordinary step as to
