The County Ticket.
We gave to our readers last week, the names' of
the eandidates : put in nomination by our County
Convention. That ticket, composed of the best
men of the county, meets wittrgeneral fa 4 vor. Plac
ed in nomination with an unanimity almost unpar
alelled, the people will ratily it by the erection of
all the candidates at the corning election. •
ADDISON I‘I'KEAN, of Burlington,
One of the nominees for Representative, is no
stranger to thrii Democracy . of Bradford, haring been
nominated at elected •as Prothonotary, in.. 1335,
an office which he filled, with credit to him If,
and satisfaction to the public. It is no ilisered4 to
the other incumbents of that station; to say that a
more capable and popular officer has never, been
elected to that post. Bred a farmer, hie sympathies
and feelings are with the masses, while his talents
and tact will make him ono al the most efficient
Representatives Br ad ford. ever had. His election
seems to enter into all the calculations of our oppo
nents.
HENRY GIBBS, of air!,ll,
Will also reflect zredtt upon our County in the
capacity of a Reptiksentative. Plain and unosten 7
tatious in his manner and pretentions, yet possess
ed of an enlightened mind'and sound judgment, no
man could be found whose adherence to t h e Bight,
would be more inflexible. Be is emphatically one
f
of the people, and his views and - opirk ~are
strongly for the rights of labor, fur the 'eq . zing
influences'of all laws, against special leg .Manion
and the'gT. anting of curporativelnivileges nal enjoy
ed by all. No more upright and -botiest- man can
be found, nor one, who holds the principles of De
mocracy more at heart Bradford may well con
graturate herself in the success of the above ticket
Capable and efficient, the gentleman put in nomi
nation, will it elected, secure the respect and con
fidence of the House; and be able to accomplish
much for the North.
STURGES SQUIRF.S. of Ridgbony,
The candidate for Commissioner, has been known
for the-last _twenty years for his activity. and Leal
in behalf of.the Democratic cause.. In the rain or

and of benefit to the cause. 'Far above this, :how
ever, he combines in all eminept degree, the qual
ifications necessary for the. important office for
which the convention has named_ Prompt,
ready -and methodical in his Manner. ot doingbusi
ness, ecOnomical'in his habits, and feelings, he
would guard strictly and jealOusly the .disbdrse-.
ment of fite County finances. Hip extensive ac
quaintance with the County, would enable him to
do justice to the ntultifari t ousbusiness which Comes
before the Board. He will make an excellent Col

The. New York Nverring Post, speaking of the
California bill says that the passing of this bill has
thiendvantsige; that a limit is set to the progress - 0i
slavery in a western direetiort ; en that it will in.
feet none of our possessions immediately on the
Pacific. It will ratadva no representation, and de
rive no influence kom that importantquarter. That
great chimera of the polity. ans of the slave states,
the preservation ore po • equilibrium between'
the Wave states etul . free, if dissipated- atones
to the winds by t.'admission of California. Cali
fornia will be fol . wed, in no very distant time, by
Mown,. cool free state; while the progreas of
the popoiati.. of Texas, retarded as it is by thi! un
happy en- of.slavery, will be slow in attaining
the n ry increase to allow of the creation of
other tea within its present limits. With regard
to . ew Mexico and Utah, which are now provided
ith territorial governments, containing no prohl•
bliffintot slavery, there is nothing to prevent that
question from being brought up again' as often as
there is the slightest chance for its success-
'here is nothing to. prevent a proposition

•amendment of these bills from being brought kir

shall be reinforced by the accession of the senators
and represenatives front California; nothing to

northern and southern representatives will be re

Upon what did that election turn 7 What were
the great principles that formed the rallying pints
'of the two •rieetious? -Upon the Witecrr banner
was inscribed; " No extension of Slavery over the
Free Territory of tips United Statesia—epa n the
flatware& banner in glaring colors stood out-a
"The South has a right to transport her slaves to
an equal shareof the terrine) , acquired of Mexico"
Upon tire mottoes inscribed upon these two b in.
tiers was the issue joined And could there hearty
doubt of the result! In Tiog connty, the remderte
of Judge Brewster, Wilmot received one thousand
seven hundred and fourteen votes. and Brewster rat
hundred and forty. In Bra fiord, the residence of
Wihnot, Brearkter received two hundred and Aeon
voles and Wilmot fair thousand one hiindroi and

of Judge Brewster. Wilmot received two demand

candidate, received four thousand Seven hundred

over Tracy three thousand scum hundred and may
eight—over Brewster seven thon.and six horn! ed
arid eighty-one, and over die combined rite of
Tracy and Brewster of two thousand eight hundred
and eighty six. And let it be remembered too, that
against neither Mr. Tracy our Judge Breve er one
word could are urger! either in point of morals or
talent. It wits-an election based purely upon prin.
mirth, and so' ar as Judge Brewster u an. concerned,
that principle was the non extension at alavery
