transcript Of the sentiments Of those republican pa
pers in the state which have approached the ques-
4ion Of the next presidency.
Every thing argues most favorably for the preseT-
walton Of the republican party and that union and
uordality will long be continued in this state The
Oneida Observer, the Albany Argus, and the Troy
Budget all uniform republican papers, and equally
non-con.mittal with ourselves, unite in deprecatis
the manner in which the candidates for the presi-
dency have been treated. Itappears to be the anx-
ious wish of these influential journals to preserve
the ranks of the republican party unbroken to
avoid all premature committas, and to fail III with
the voice ofthe majority of republicans whenit shall
be sufficiently ascertalned. his IS our course !
q. The people," says the Troy Budget, "will not
be easily induced to Join the standard ola interest
ed or traitorous asplrant, nor will they, without
good and sufficient cause, Withdraw their support
from men whom they have selected" This seni-
will certainly be responded to By every republican

time seems in the editors opinion TO bave arrived
when it must be manfllly met.-The measures OF
the present administration the editor considers to be

on and Monroe. Deducting several OF his obserya-
tions made upon Mr.. Van Buren,, which we think
were unnecessary, (although as republican, the ed |
itor has right to his private opinions,l we have
no doubt his sentiments in favor of the adminstra-
ton will receive that consideration which they de-
serve. The Hudson Republican expresses similar
sentiments. gfE
The Auburn Republican in speaking of manufac
lures says that is ungnestionaby the true policy
of our country to encourage in every suitable way
the establishment and protection OF our manniac-
lures" This is doubtless correct doctrine. he
sentiments OF the country have undergone great
change on this subject.-Perhaps there is no place

is taking place. and in few years when the inonn-

The Goshen Republican and the s. racuse Adrcr-

their already great influence in the Republican Par

disapprobation to the aInaganatlon system OF Mas
sachusetts, and defended with much talent the at
tacks which have been made upon the party IN
this state. On the question OF the presidential
candidate to be supported by New York it awaits a
caucus but at the same time comments With Tree

serving the union of the Republican family, consid

of mere men. In this we most cordially agree wit
him. When we permit local or personal dispute
to enter the republican ranks, at that moment th
common enemy will break i'll and destroy US.
We have already mentioned to our readers III
course Of the Monroe Republican upon the presi
dental question: and that the editor Of that pupe
has declared himself in favor Of the present Amin

An union of sentiment and action in the Ropubli
can party of this state, upon the Presidential qua
