THE NEW YORK HERALD. WHOLE NO. 6937. NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTIO! The Hard Shells in Convention in Syracuse. LIST OF DELEGATES. Names of Candidates Nominated, &e., &e., &e. FIRST DAY’S PROCEEDINGS. ‘The delegates to the State Convention of the National Democracy of New York, of the hard or anti-administra- tion stripe, met at 12 o'clock, M., on Thursday, the 23d, in Wieting Hall, Syracuse. There had been an informal meeting at 9 o’clock A. M., in the dining room of the Syracuse House, at which the appointment of temporary officers was made. No subject of any importance, other than that, was brought on the tapis there. ‘The attendance of delegates was very full. The num- ber elected was.128, and there seemed to be about 120 present. They appeared to bea highly intelligent and aespectable body of men. The meeting was called to or- @er by Mr. Lrox, of Utica, who proposed the name of Au- gustus Schell as temporary chairman, A motion was made to appoint 2 committee of two to notify Mr. Schell of hisappointment as temporary chair- ‘man, and to Inform him thatthe convention was in ses- sion. An amendment was moved that that commitice report on the 4th of July next. ‘The amendment was insisted on, but voted down, and the original motion was adopted. Mr. Haskin and Dr. Cooke were appointed such com- mittee to wait on Mr. Schell. There being some delay experienced in the coming in of the chairman, if was moved that another committee ‘be appointed to wait upon him and inform him that the convention was in session. Mr. Narew hoped that Mr. Haskin and Dr. Cooke ‘would not be deprived of the honor of waiting on Mr. Schell. After a few moments Mr. Scuett entered, and was re- ceived with applause.” He stated the business in order to be the appointment of secretaries to the convention. Mesars. Jobn 8. Nafew, of Albany, and H. I. Wilcox, of Chautauque, were appointed such secretarics. The Cnamman then addressed the Convention, waid:— ‘ Gentlemen of the Conyention:—In accepting the poai- Yon which your partiality has essigned to me, you will rimés me to congratulate you on the objects which you weve in view in azcembling in convention this day, and also on the patriotic feeling which actuates you in the discharge of your duty. (Applawe.) The national de- mocrats of the State are now, as iu ('mes past, prepared to declare their principles, t9 nominate their candidates for office, and to enter into the campaign with the de- termination to succeed. (Applaus The principles which you advocate are those on which the constitution is baved and by which the Union and the States is to be tuated. (Applouse.) The present time calls for iF bold and distinct enunciation. In our awn State, as in other States, eforis are being made to perfect that t sectional pariy which was orizinated in Buffalo, in i848, and which now unites in its organization all who fare opposed to the principles which we advocate. They ‘will present to the country the great ‘sane of nationality or coctionalism, of Union or divunion, ani we shall be prepared to mcei it. (Appiause.) Othe questions o reat importance will be prese-vicd ta your cansidera- ion. The cracic perty of the Unioa is now, asever, wppoced to the@e.ice< of sumpiuscy laws, subjecti ¢ houses and places of business of our citizens to arbi- trary visitation. It iv opposed to all legislation which violates the hospi(ali‘ics guarantee by the constitution and laws to adopicdcitizens, or which proseribes them for their place of birth or religious faith. (Loud hurras, and protrected voc! erations of ap: Inuse.) “I thauk you for the honor you have confe1 upon me, and I trust that the true spirit of patriotism and concord will cha- facterize your deliberations, and will secure the triumph wf the democratic party to which we are devutet. (Ap Mr. D, E. Stickies, of N. Y¥., moved that a committee of @pe from each Judicial district be appointed, to nominate ent officers of the convention. The point of order was raised that the convention was no! yci fully organized, as the names ofdelegates had no been called.

Itis not un- likely, gentlemen, that in the progress of our discussions differences of opinion may rr possibly an earnest con- fie ws. Allow me, [i'sen, to counsel moderation, conciliation and forbearance, end to express the hope that the dongs of this convention will strengthen the faith and confidence of every one of us, and result in closely uniting us in a vigorod determination tostand by our principles, come what may. (Applause.) ‘The unusually large avicndance of delegates here, from almost every section of the Steio, demonstrates that the national democratic perty of New York still lives, aud that its council fires still burn, (Applause.)

In talking wil various mtlemen today, he found that they had all differed in their views of how these principles should be expr Regar not only preeedent but expediency, he ecasidered they ould havo at least two from each Judicia! district in the proposed committee, ‘A delegate from Otsego supported the original mo- tion.

The motion before the committee he said, is, for the appointment ofa committee of one from each Judicial district, and he Mir.

He would concede that for the time , they could do no other wise than refuse to sit with those who brought bullies bom with them. But since that time great questions of publ nse haye arisen, Important questions of State end national policy have arisen, The dential can- vas of 1856 is before us. The fight of 1852 has got to be fought over. The compromise measures have ceased to cxercise the healing influence which they then did, and that battle has to be fought over again) Mr. Se- ward has organized his cohorts to uphold all the isms ef the day, for the purpose of dividing the democracy.

What are we doing while these ostile organizations are carrying Siate after State and city after city? We are quarrelling after minor affairs, questions of personal ambition, instead of rising and striking to the dust these mushroom opponents of liber- ty and freedom. He trusted that, as democrats and pas triots, they would unite their forces these op) o8- ing elements, Even as politicians should be too smart to be nominating, year after reat, Cickets for the 1 of seeing them defeated. All who ave opposed 0 these irma should unite in one ticket inst those jobbers ard robbers who fatten on the public creasury,and bgainst those who would uproot the yery pillars of the constitution, This, he thought, was the public seuti- ment of (he masses. They should throw open wide the gates of their halls andyeccive cordially and frankly all who agree with them'on principle, and treat (hem as equals ii thoy choose to co-operate with them for the @:- tablishment of democratic superiority. That resolution which was recommended, might bring in a few votes here and there, but it would have no general edect.

Tt wos right. for this party, meeting first, to initiate this movement af pro- moting unity. The responsibility lay on them of adont- tng a course which is either to secure the triumph of the democratic party in this contest and in that of 1356, or of having fastened on them the obloquy of defeat.

' The Tragedy on Staten Istand—One Man shot On the afternoon of Monday last, a man named Hans Shaffer was shot on the farm of Mr. Joba D. Warren, the circumstances of the case being aq follows:—Ms. Warren owns @ farm upon the Richmond road, abomt two miles from the Quarantine, upon which are great quantities of blackberries, which are very inviting to the large Ger man population in this neighborhood of Staten Island. But Mr. Warren, as well as most of the other farmers of the Island, obj on their grounds, inasmuch as they invariably take the lib erty to break down trees and do other damage, for the purpose of obtaining peaches, apples, cherries, or what to these Germans trespassing ever lve may attract their fancy. On Monday fast, Mr Warren being away fiom home, Hana Schaffer and bis son considered thie a opportunity to get blackberries, and for this purpose entered Mr. Warren’s field, Me. Warren’a son, a boy about vixteen years of age, wae at home at the time, and resolving to protect his father’s property during his pa rent’s absence, he went out to Schaffer and hin son and ordered them off the premises, Both refused to tem rs and threatened to knock young Warren's brains ow he molested them, ‘The boy then, smarting under this refural of the Germans to obey him and their threat went up to their «mall basket of blackberries that was setting near, and kicked it over. Upon this young Sebaf. fer, who was about eighteen or twenty years of age, moved towards young Warren, ae the latter thoaght to beat him, who instantly ran for the house, young Schaf fer chasing him part of the way. The Germans then continued picking the berries as if nothing had happened.
