We should be t,ad to give mora full account, to show the feeling which anmates our young brethren in the State ot NewsYork, but have not room. When the young men 6f state enter into political contest with the zeal And determination which pervade those of York, Siiecess cannot fail to crown their efforts. We ex- tnct few of the resolutions which were passed as hample of the whole -
 Resolue6 That we, the Representatives of the Whig Young Men of New-York, hereby pledge to our Whg brethren of this State the cordial coopera- fidence and zeal of hundred thousGnd Wing Young Men in the great effurt now making to redeem the Empire State from the degrading thraldom and cor fupt subserviency to trafickng politicians which tor years have crippled her energies and couded her fame
 ResoEued That we see, in the wreck of public and private interests and the accumulation of individual and general suffering which the headstrong despot- ism of one man and the vena sycophancy of his lead ing parisnns have inflicted on the nation, new and striking evidence of the superiority Of really and prac, we will not relax our efforts until the power of the Federal Executive is once more reduced within lts constitutional boundaries, and the will of the people properly and clearly n b nad ana
