New York State Nominations. The Conservative State Convention of New York, In session at Alhuny on Wednesday last, nominated Hon. John T. Holl'iiian, Demoontt, for Governor, and Hon. Hubert H. Pruyn, Kejiiibll tian, for Lieutenant Governor. Mr. 1 tollman wus nominated unanimously, hy aeolamatlon, and Mr, Pruyn ruoelvod two-thirds of all the votes east outlie ‘final ballot. We print below what two of the lead lug Journals of New York city (one Dumoeratlo and the other lleiiubllean) say about these nominations i From Lhu World, (DumoomtliM The oundlilato for Governor needH no formal introduction either to the people of this city, or the people of the Stute. John T. Huffman, though still a young man, has been for mauy years known to ouroltiv.eiiß asone of the most upright, estimable,disereet,able, patriotic, popu lar, and rising men among us. Until his election us Mayor, he was chiefiy known, out of social life, as a jurist and magistrate. In that character, he was distinguished for fidelity, fearlessness, suavity, and for that strict regard to the proprieties of his position which befits a minister of justice. Though always a staunch Democrat, he so bore himself In his judicial office as to extort, again and agaiu, the homage of men of different politics. They never mentioned his name, either m print or conversation, without markß of respect. Mr. Hoff man's independent anu patriotic course dutipg the war was, in particular, a topic of universal praise in the Republican newspapers, not only here buttbrough out the country. 11l the responsible office of Mayor, he liuh been equally up right and equally fortunatei The honest vigilance with which he has guarded the public interests, and the unquailing promptitude with which he has defeated by his vetoes corrupt or questionable projects, have brought him Into still higher credit, with citizens of all parties than he had previously enjoyed as a judg-e. In short, Mr. Hoffman is one of the most esteemed, popular, rising, and discreet men In the country. All the other men on the ticket are equally admirable for the several places for which they have been nominated. Robert H. Pruyn, the candidate for Lieutenant-Governor, is a distinguished citizen of Albany. Under President Lincoln’s administration, he held the honorable post of Minister to Japan, from which he not long ago returned. He is a gentleman of character, ability, and statesmanlike accomplishments, which would grace any office in the Btate government. William W. Wright, of Ontario Oounty, the nominee for Canal Com missioner, Is excellently fitted by past service In connection with the eanalß, as well as by honesty, business capacity, und sound economical principles, for tile position to which he Is to be elected. The nomination of Frank B. Galla gher, of Bulfalo, for Htate Prison Inspec tor, is a fitting reognltlon of those ardent and iudominltable friends of free gov ernment and sound Democratic princi ples, our IrlHli fellow-citizens. The Convention desired to put upon the ticket the man who would be most ac ceptable to the Irish voters of tho-Stato, and It ran no hazard of mistake In tak ing the gentlemen who presided over the Fenian Convention at Troy. A man who hue received this recent mark of honor and confidence from Ills com patriots, is a candidate whom they will be proud and zchlouh to elect. The ticket ns a whole Is very strong ; especially strong in the ability, integ rity, and high standing of the candi dates ; -strong in popularity ; very strong in tlie vote it will command In this city; and strong in flic State, There has been no ticket nominated by, any party within the memory of man which stirred such enthusiasm, whloh inspired suoli confidence, or will poll so prodi gious u vote, as will bo given to this ticket in this oity, The glowing and affectionate praise bestoweuoii Mr. Hoff man yesterday in tho Convention, by District Attorney Hall,merely expressed the common sentiment of conservative men in this great metropolis. We as sure our friends in the rural districts that the home of Mayor Hoitoan will nobly do its part; we beg that they, with equal spirit and vigor, will do theirs. Prom the Times, (Itopabllcim.) John T. Hoffman had been nominated for Governor by the Convention at Albany. He is a gentleman of ability and eminent purity of character, and his course during the war was patriotic and unexceptionable. We do not think that he will command as large a degree of public confidence and support In the pending canvass as Gen. Dix would have done, but this is a matter upon which a very wide difference of opinion prevailed in the Convention. It was urged, and with a good deal of force, that as the City of New York and its immediate vicinity would contribute moßt largely to to tlie majority against ■ J the Syracuse ticket, their preferences oughtto be consulted in the selection of the leading candidate on the ticket, and this view of the case prevailed in the Convention. ■ Mr. Hoffman is a gentleman to whom no possible exception can be tnkeh on persona! grounds. That many Repub licans who cannot assent to the extreme doorines of the present majority in Con gress, would have preferred to vote for a candidate less distinctly presented as a Democrat, is very likely.’ But Mayor Hoffman gives his unreserved assent to the, principles and polioy of the Phila delphia Union Convention, and will be elected, if he is elected at all, not as a Democrat, but as the representative of the .sentiments and measures which were that, Convention. Robert H. Pruyn, the .candidate for Lieutenant uovernbr, was l formerly a Whig, then a decided Republican, and isi'iiow h fcealous advocate of the policy of‘/promptly, restoring ] the Union, by admitting w ,t}ieif sehts in Congress, loyal representative,from loyal States. He has ability, great practical, energy and a very large fljrftflejpif pplitloal expe rience. '' 1 The -other 1 riomlnatibns are divided between - the!

Organizations' In New York-~Prepara tlonsfbr the Itty KeVdlntlon. [From the JTfcw York World.) It will be remembered that two col ored regiments left this city during tire war, fqr the field. Only a portion of these organizations returned here. About a year since It was proposed to some of the officers of these regiments to form battalions from the old mem bers, in order to preserve the memories of their associations on the battle-field. The rank and file declined to encumber themselves with the fatigue of military manoeuvres, driUs and parades, and the enterprise was abortive. Abohjt a month Blnce, however, a similar movement was inaugurated under, more favorable circumstances. A number of black military officers met and resolved toorganizeabrlgadewhose members should be composed of those who had seen service. A notice was subsequently circulated among the colored veterans of the city, many of whom responded to the call. TUB HEADQUARTERS IN BLEEOKEB ST. Although the proposed formation of a brigade was desired to be secret, those who had charge of the organization hired a hall in a populous portion of this city for the purpose of drilling the members. They selected as a rendez vous for the martial blacks under their command the uppermost floor of the building corner of Bleecker and Mor- ton streets. The hall chosen for the purpose Is one peculiarly appropriate for secresy. In fact the whole building has a mystic look, for Its rooms are oooupled by secret bodies from the second landing to the roof. Let us describe our adven tures last night when wo ascended the edifice to reach the nunc,turn sanctorum of the African Mars. The private entrance is on Morton street. After passing a colored officer who stood at the door, we proceeded up stairs to the sixth story, where wo alighted on a shaky lobby of narrow-di mensions, on the walls of which ap peured u lrtbel Htutlng thut Odd el* lowh met here. On proceeding further, however, through the passage which opened to our view, we beheld the fol lowing military order: I'llOTMrriON UNION UIJAUIiH, j ['lid mmnlii.rs or tills ijr.umzutiqnuni no- 1 kuU toinui.t burn for Urlil, tills ( I' rliUy) uvu- : i)K> By onlornf Ooloni'l Hawkins.

Wc proceeded to the hall, but wo were mot at the door by two intelligent color ed men, who stated thut they hud orders to admit only mouiberH of the organiza tion. in the meantime, the steudy tramp of men on the double-quick was heard from the inside, and occa sionally the sounds of the soul-plerclng drum, as evoked by u negro corps, who timed the steps of their sable brothers, rendered the march inaudible. oirit REPORTER ADMITTED TO THE The sentinels at the door were ex tremely obliging, but they turned for some time a deaf ear to the applications of our reporter to be admitted. At length the coveted privilege was conceded, and he found himself in a large room front ing on Bleeoker Btreet, with an audience of some sixty blacks, all awaiting the arrival of their colonel. It should be here stated that this was only one company of the "Protection" regi ment. STATEMENT OK THE NECiKO COLONEL. A colored gentleman here introduced our reporter to Colonel Hawkins, who waa one of the black officers of the 31st United States colored infantry, which left this city during the war. The colo nel, who is bland and communicative, made the following statement in reply to the questions of our reporter : The company of the black regiment then in the hall, he said, was a portion of the “Protection Union Guard,"which had recently been formed. They had met for a month past for the purpose of drill, and among the members were many who had been in service during the late war. No one but colored men were admitted to the organization. At this point the colonel was somewhat reticent, and the annexed dialogue en sued i , Reporter— What is the object of the organization ? Col. Hawkins—lt 1b the Protective Union Guards. Reporter—But will you please tell me itß object. Colonel Hawkins—lt is only to revive the military associations of the wnr ; it is merely for amusement, to enable such of our people as may desire it to par ticipate In drill exercises. We hail in tended to ask the State to recognize us a militia regiment; bnt 1 see, by a ref erence to the constitution, tnat only white male citizens can avail them selves of the privilege. Our regiment will be similar to the Hannibal Guardß, which had a parade In the city In 1848. Reporter—Are there other regiments in process of formation ? Here a colored gentleman who sat next the colonel answered : Yes, there are three others organizing In different partß of the city. A (IRAND COLORED PARADE. Reporter—Can you tell me the names of the officers ? Colored gentlemen-7-I don't know them. / _ . Reporter—When they first ap pear in uniform ? Colored gentlemen —Well, I can’t tell you. We hoped to have a display this month, hut I suppose we can’t. I Bhould like it myself, but I'm afraid tho regi ment won’t be ready. Reporter—What uniform do you In tend to wear? Colored gentleman—The uniform of the regulars. AFRICAN UNION LKAOUKS FORMED IN EVERY WARD, Reporter —Well, wlieu will you purade? „„ , , Coli,red gentleman—lhe Loyal Leagues wanted us to escort tliem through the city on the 24th of this month; but I'm afraid we won’t be Reporter—The Loyal League In Union Square, do you say ? Colored gentleman—No; our own Loyal Leagues. Reporter—Wnen were they formed ! Colored gentleman—A long time since: we have one in every ward in this city. Mr. Ray and Mr. Day, and other men, are members of our leagues; they are all to parade on the 24th ol September. THE DRILL. The sound of the half-dozen drums here Interrupted the conversation, and notified the “niggards ” to prepare for drill. Colonel Hawkins immediately opened a copy of “ Hardee’s Tactics, and the men began to form line, with out muskets. Our reporter was here notified to withdraw by a colored gen tleman near the door, and he at once left. —A planter of Sumter county, Ala bama, thus relates to the Livingston Journal an account of an amusing In terview between himself and " head man”—Howard.

Be assured it will ever pe re membered and/appreciated as the thost > precious incident of a long military flateer. The objeot ofthlß great millta- Jy convention, if I. understand it cor rectly, is to consider the principles enunciated by the National Union Con vention at Philadelphia, and the resto ration policy of President Johnson. On these subjects I would simply remark that the sooner Congress recognizes the States, declared byamajorltyof Remem bers to be out of the Union, as constltu-. ted parts of the Union, and admit their Joyai representatives to seatsin the halls of Congress, and permit them to par ticipate in the national legislation of the country, the sooner will be allayed the tears and apprehensions of the peo ple of the dangers which again menace the peace of the country and the pros perity of the Union. With the most bitter and vlndiotive feelings, a war of words for thirty years was carried on between the Northern Radical Abo litionists and the slaveholders of the Southern States. Everything was done and said to promote and keep alive the controversy, which Anally culminated in rebellion in the Bpring of 1801. and which, for atrocity, the BaorlAceoflaWs, expenditure of untold millions or money, the loss of property, followed by pestilence, famine, and desolation, lias no parallel In the history of nations. Tills bloody and desolating oontest was in-ought to aoloße in the spring of 1805, when the rebels, unable longer to oarry ou the wur, surrendered with their armies to our gallant Generals Grant. Sherman, and others. The rebel ai-mleß wore permitted, under parole, to return to their homes and there await the orders of the United States Govern ment, the officers and soldiers of their armies pledging themselves to become true and faithful supporters of the Con stitution and the laws of the United States. Such were the terrible results of a four years'war, ouused by the In stitution of slavery. A few days after the surrender ol Lee anil Ills army President Lincoln was assassinated, Tills utroelous crime, greatly mourned by the nation, placed Andruw Johnson In the Presidential chulr. His election was hulled by ucelainatlon throughout the land ; ami this, ton beoausoofhls lovoand devotion to Ills country, and his bold ness while Senator of the United StateH 111 udvouatlug the preservation of the Union, lu opposition to every other Southern Senator. Few men. North or South, weresubjectod to great er sacrifices on account of patriotism than Andrew Johnson; and although plundered of htH property and driven from liis home, he returned agalu, and by his indomitable energy and perse verance, with other patriotsof his State, reclaimed Tennessee from treason and rebellion. This bold and daring friend of the Union can be_no traitor. Strange as it may appear, he was denounced as a traitor, and threatened by the Radical members of the Republican party with impeachment. It may be asked with propriety what has President Johnson done that he should be denounced as a traitor, and threatened with impeach ment? Is it for anything more than the exercise of the most noble and gen erous efforts to conciliate and bring hack lnlo the folds of the Union alirave people, and make the United States what they should be, a united great people. It ought not to be forgotten that slavery, which engendered the re bellion, has been removed. Your slaves had been declared free by an amend ment of the Constitution. Those of the Southern States most interested in the abolition of slavery, which deprived them of a large amount of what they called property, and which they consid ered all Important to their Interest, quietly submitted to the amendment. Those who prepared the amendment omitted to guard against what would follow. When too late It was discover ed that the freeing of four millions of slaves would increase the Southern representation in Congress from twen ty-Ave representatives to thirty. This was to be overcome lest the abolition Radicals should lose their control of the Government by an act of Congress another amendment of the Constitution. Falling In their efforts, all that bitterness of feeling has been revived which existed for thirty years between the Radicals of the East and North and the Southern slaveholders. Another civil war la foreshadowed un less the freedmen are placed on an equality with their previous masters! If thlH cannot be accomplished, Radical partisans, with a raglug tlilrst forblood and plunder, are again ready to Invade the (Southern States, and lay waste the oountry not already desolated, with the sword in one hand and the torch in the other. These revengeful partisans would leave tholr country a howling wilder ness for the want of more vtotlms to gratify their unsatiable cruelty. If they should succeed In lnflloting on the coun try another war, It would be more ter rible than the ouefrom which we have just emerged. It could not be confined to the Southern States, but would ex tend itself the length aud breadth of the United States, and only end with the overthrow of the best government ever devised. If such should be the fate of our republican empire, the cause must not be sought for In our military oamps, but In the forum thronged with inflam matory orators aud aspiring demagogues with souls dead to their country’shonor. anil spotted with corruption. I need not tell this great assemblage of officers, soldiers, and sailors—most of whom have been engaged In many perilous battles, defending their country’s honor —that war Is a great evil, and the great est thut can befall any country or peo ple. It haß ever been the curse of nations, and the cause of all the op pression imposed on the people of Eu rope. If you would guard your once free, happy, and prosperous country from oppression and oppressive taxeß, beware now you encourage war and allow demagogues, who, for trafflo or revenge, would drench their country in blood. The loss of liberty commences with oppression, and oppression follows war. The United States as conquerore can afford to be lust and magnanimous. The brave are always merolfuland gen erous. As President Johnson said, we have had war enough. Let there be peace! Remember that the recent re bellion, engendered by Radical abo lltionlsts and slaveholders, leave the : Northern States with more than a hun dred thousand pensioners, besides thou sands and tens of thousands of widows and orphans to weep over the graves of tbelr protectors and the defenders of' the Union. Yet there are those among us who are notßUfflciently satiated with blood and plunder, and cry for more war. in conclusion, I would callifpon ■ you—officers and suilors—to stand 1 by i the Union, whiohlna warof fouryeatß, . when blood flowed in torrents, by your, I gallantry and indomitable persever : anoe and courage, was saved from ruin " and destruction, I entreat you to , spare no efforts to preserve this' - republic Intact—the last nope of the op-' pressed of the world.
