'I !.iï speeches wore -short and pithy - iLe-slngiitg by Messrs. Bancroft mul pacjj ;vere of a superior order, and nddcd mud) to the interest of the occasion. The nomination of JXarfte G. Birf,y for Govp-rnor. was recerved by 1! pres om wilh unqualified pleasure. Tliecohspiracy todef-trov Mr. Birney's characler and standing with his politica] friends and with the whole nation, was oneol the meanest enterprises in which nny political pnrty cvor enüsthd. From the time Mr. J. M. Moward wrote his 'use-it-tken" letter, till the day of elee lion, misrepre.'enlation, direct falsehooc and fcjrgery were not sparea by lhe managers of the Whig party. Eut the resull was as unsticcessful as the eííbrt to succeed nnd been stu pendoos. Out of some lhirt}-five Liberty papers, oí a solhary one could be found that wonld lisien for a momem 'to rmplicaiions ngarnst ïiis integritv: he receivedthe whole vote of his party, so fur ns a party vote was given: t!ie large Slale Convention of New York have jusl expressed the fullest confidence in his probity and -viitue: numerous Conventions in other States, as tbey have met from time to time, 1iave reiterated the e.vpressionsoflheiresteem and regard fo h-im: whHe the Liberty Convention of last "winter of his own State-- the rnost numerous that ever assembled - the State where the charges made agam?t him were best understood and most liioroughly eaivassed - a full Liberty Oonvention of his. own State unanimoushj passed a resol in tion conplelely vindicating liim iVoni every aspersión thal had been cast upon him-: and now in prei'erence to alJ others, he has now received the tinanirnous vote of anolher largé Staie Ccrnvention that he shall fill the snnie sltuation that he held in 1843, astheir candidale for Governor of the State. In addition to this we can sa y that in all our acquaintance we have yet to sec or hear of the first Libert)' man who credits iho aspersions of the Whigs upon Mr. Birnev's character. Surely a vindication so general, exíending through all the States - so comprehensive, cmbracing his whole political course - and so universal, extending to every paper, every Convention, and so faraswe know, to ever}' man of bis party, may well be calied a Iriamp'iant vindication. Nolhing can be added to h. We invite the Detroit Advertiser and its kindred prints to look at these facts. Do not you see that you have not gained a single inch by your abuse of Mr. Birney, while you luive greatly lovered yourselvesin the cstimation of the candid of your own party? Your course is as fooHsh as it is wicked. We do not expect that moral or honorable considerations will weigh wilh you: bul surely, if vou have understanding, you should be alive to your interest. Your efforls to destroy Mr. Birney haveutterly failed: he will receive a larger voie in this State for Governor tlian he did last vear for President; and how ridiculous and contemjtib!o will your puny warfaie ngainst him then look? Think of this, and be wise!Dr. N. ÍVT. Thomas. This gentleman, aftertwo ifífdfttrtfl bal' loting, recpived the unanimous vote of tlie Convention as iheir candidalefor Lieutenant Governor. Dr. Thomas is a man of sterling integrity and high moral worth. He is a man vl' superior nbilities, of llnished educatión, anu would do honor to himself and Kis party, should he beclected. Finally. we congratulatc öur frisnds in this Stale, on the excellent nomination made. Proslavery politicians have been looking l'orward with deep an.xiciy to the doings ofour Convention. There is not a man in the Stale they (ospecially the Vhigs)so nmch dread to seo in the ííeld as James G. liiiney, nnd tbr t;vo rensons: - firsf, ho will conmiahd a Jarger vote than any other man - and second, it .'Iiowa how utlerly powerles?. all their Roarbacks, forgeries and lies have pro ved wí.n directed agninst unofibnding nnocence. It riow retnains for Liberty men to do their duty. Feélirig as they"n)ust the justnes of iht-ir cause: and the parnmoünt imporfance of their principies, nnd having candidates on wliom to beetow llieir suffragc everv woy cómpolent and worthy, a inrge and mucli increased vote will be expecte.l. Let Libcriy men commence nt ot:ce. and complete their orgnnization in everv towp in the Stale.
