New YoRK CHARTER ELEcTIoN.--
The old saying, that revolutions never
go backward is fully verified by these
selections. The-hope that was cherished
: BY the Loco Focos, that the late revolu-
ton Of public sentiment in New York
was but paroxism which would soon
subside without diminishing the strength
Of the party, is dashed to the ground.
The change Of public opinion was thor
ough, and is onward. The New York
Evening Star, from which we gather the
following results Of the charter elections
now being held iu that state, says:
The Tories are getting used up in
every direction a sort of second edi-
ton on the minor key Of the Waterloo
defeat Of last fall. In the ensuing fall
the route will be complete, and the To-
nv party be completely annihilated.
In Rochester the Wings have made q

Cooperstown, noted regency den,

Mr. RANsotr, by those who know him

Mr.. Editor-A citizen Of respectable
ity, in discussion as to the most proba-
bic site of the great town on Maumee
harbor, undertook to maintain that po-
sition somewhat above the head Of navi-
cation is more favorable than one just at
and below the highest point of tranship-
ment; and for proof of his general rule
adduced Glasgow and St. Petersburg
as in point. But if these cases were
wellput and analogous to that in dispute,
| hold that they can only be considered
exceptions to the general rule, that all
great Commercial To,oas of modern
groDth are only built on good and COM
modious harbors, His examples how
ever do not cover his case. OfGlasgow,
Mr.. Mccullough, in his dictionary Of
Commerce, says, "the shallowness Of
the Clyde from Greenock up to Glasgow,
has been serious drawback upon the
commercial progress Of the latter
Large sums have been expended in at
temps to contract the course and deep
en- the bed OF the river, and they have
so far succeeded that vessels Of $50 tons
burden may now, generally speaking,
ascend to the city at all times ofthe tide.
But there seems little probability Of its
ever becoming suitable for ships Of pret-
ty large burden"
st. Petersburg is suitated at the en-
trance of the river Neva into the head
of the Gulf Of Finland, the borders Of
which being marshy, afford no good
ground for town where the water is OF
"a sufficient depth to float large vessels.
But the port of Cronstadt, situated on
an island in the Gulf, 90 miles from ST.
Petersburg, is used for these, while those
drawing nine feet water, at low tide, go
up to the town, and those drawing four
teen feet water approach very near to
it. would ask, would Cronstadt be
used iflarge ships could goto St. Peters
burg? Or would Peter the great have
selected the latterfor the site of his fu-
ture capital, if he could have found on
the border Of the Gulf solid ground hav-
ing aharbor Of sufficient depth and ex-
tentto accommodate its anticipated COM
merce! May not, therefore, conclude
that a bad harbor is not favorable to the
growth Of great commercial town, and
that town having no harbor at all is
still less 80. w.

Timothy J. Carter, Member of Con-

on the evening of the 10th inst. Some
Van Buren paper states that he died Of
grief for the loss Of his friend, Mr.. Gil

have the authority Of SamuelSlick, Esq.

feeling Of sympathy in behalf of the in

act switch neither reason nor law, con-
stitution nor justice, could or can Defend
This is mere denunciation assertion
without argument-and assertion which
cannot be supported by resort to facts.
But to excite false sympathy for Cur
tbs Bates is the only hope which the tory
presses have of his reelection. He
possesses neither qualifications nor SER
vices by which to secure the support
of the intelligent voters of the North
western Senatorial District.
But has Curtis Bates any claims upon
the sympathy of the People !? We trow
not. He has neither been prosecuted
nor oppressed by his political opponents
-on the contrary; he has been treated
with the utmost lenity and considera-
ton. His case was brought before the
Senate by petition--he was permitted to
summon all the witnesses he desired, and
to cross-examine those summoned on
behalf of the offended Constitution--and
the matter was postponed from day to
day, and from week to week, as he de-
sired it. Finally, he plead his own cause
his friends in the Senate aided him
and it was only at the close Of the Ises-
sion, that the question which was to de-
eide his case, was put to the Senate
Thus was secured to the People of his

letters of the correspondent Of the Gin

the arguments adduced for and against
Mr.. Bates:
aThe greatest part ofto-day, after the
