Tho ticket which this body has nomi
nated last week is thus classified: For
Governor, Horatio Seymour, Soft Shell
and Conservative; Lieut. Governor, David
R. Floyd Jones, Soft Shell; for Canal
Commissioner, William J. Skinner, Soft
Shell and war Democrat; for Inspector of
State Prisons, Gaylord J. Clark, Hard

Resolved, That the Democracy of New

1 views upon questions not rendered impera
tive by the imperiled condition of their
country, hereby declare:
First—That they will continue to ren
der the Government their sincere and uni

means to suppress the rebellion and to re
store the Union as it was and maintain the
Constitution as it is, believing that that

purposes.

tion, unanimously passed by Congress in
July, 1861, the. Government was pledged
to the policy inculcated therein, which
cannot he departed from without violation
of publiefaith, viz:
“Resolved, That the present deploiable

Ail of the information we can get from the
North, goes to prove that Lincoln and his govern
ment are preparing for a vigorous campaign the
approaching winter. Because they were success
ful last winter, they probably hope that their luck
will change with the weather, and that the com-
j ing winter, they will be able to win back all they
have lost during the Summer; and this they may
do, if we do not prepare for them in time Their

is not waged on their part, in any spirit

Richmond, Oct 2.—The Richmond Enqirer j
iias received N< w York dates to Sept. 30th. They j
state that Bull Nelson was shot in the Galt '
House, in Louisville, Ky.’ on Monday last, by \
Gen. Jefferson C. Davis. He expired in a few j
named officers, namely: Generals
Heath, Leadbeter, Rains, Reynolds,
Churchill, Claborine aud Maxey.—
What adds much to the probability of
this report is the fact that the large
number of rebel troops who had been
gathered in front of Cincinnati have
now left that section, and at last ac
counts were moving in this direction.
The enemy are gathering a large num
ber of troops in the State of Kentucky,
many of whom have heretofore been
acting as Union home guards. In
some instances whole companies have
turned themselves and the United
States arms which had been entrusted
to them, over to the rebels.

From the 43th.
A letter was received from Col. T.
Hardeman, of the 4-5th yesterday,
dated at Martinsburg the 23d. He
reached his command on the 15th, at
Harper’s Ferry just as the battle
there was over, and the regiment
was among those detailed to look
after the important stores captured
at that place. The 45th was there
fore not in the battle of Sharpsburg.—
We learn from the letter that Capt.
William Plane, of Baker, was among
the victims in that sanguinary fight.
Col. Hardeman was in command of the
Brigade at the time he wrote, but
states that it was reduced to a few
hundred.
