and letting off rockets and riding and walking In
professions and dragging carriages like asses ana
4 making great speeches, and making great Tools
of themselves, now stand like bruised and wear'ed
prize fighters, gaspng with open mouth and bruised
limbs and empty pockets, and broken regulations
upon earth and prospect of getting toheaven, wait
ing to get breath sufficient enable them to renew the
contest and the ridiculous struggles, and make
greater fools of themselves than ever.
Such scenes Of nonsense and folly those we
have but recently passed through in various parts
+ this state, the world never saw before, and pro-
badly never will again. at least 1t n to be hoped
not II is now high time for the wings in this city
and state to their Senses and to see exactly
how they stand. We don't expect the locofocss to
to their senses, even those that ever has
any, and as to their seeing how they stand that Is
not expected Of them by their most sangaine sup
porters since their motto is, to keep driving aheao,
and let the devil take the hndmost.
Bat of the great and intelligent whs party of this
sire and hope to see entire change of conduct and
feeling in their ranks. We the eve ofone
of the most important elections that has taken place
in this country for many, many years. An election
tha, involves in its result the welfare ofevery fam
ly in the state; an election, the result Of which, will
affect for gooi for evil, the general interests OF
this city for many years TO come; election that
will most powerfully operate upon all the great quts-
tions of finance, and commercial Matters that have
long been agtated, and affected in varousiy IN
furious ways, by the mismanagement and political
jsbbing and schemng Of those who have been unwIse-
ly placed in power.
1t now wants about two months to the election,
and in the interim arrangements ought to be made to
meet that crisis. But how we to meet it! That
is the grand point to be considered What materials
have we to meet it! What sort of men have we to
oppose to those who in favor Of supporting the
present administration? We have ample materials,
and resources, and energies sufficient to meet and to
triumph over the wretched locofocos, il they were
properly called out, and not neutralzed by the mi
serable trash called committees in this city, who
affect to rule and regulate the OF the whole
couatry, when scarcely one of this selfconsttuted
body Of twaddlers and asses able to regulate
their own individual concerns, or the finances of
their breeches pockets.
Let us go back no further than last spring, and
aking review Of the political and other operations
of the self constituted leaders OF the party, how
BY the total Encouragement and arrogance OF the
Z Foung Mems Committee, (at the head of which is q
,ontemptibe clique connected with the "Courier
Ind Enquirer the prospects and plans of the party
n this city were totally defeated and prostrated.
This committee, governed and controlled entirely
sy the "Ceurier" clique, inflicted greater blow
a. N. =. =. NJ
can, We fear, be redeemed this fall by the utmost
erprise and energies Of the most prudent, inteil-
gent, and honorable amongst them. Ever within the
last few weeks we had gross instances Of the folly
and inconsstency Of this Young Mems Committee
in the hurrahs professions noise, guzzling, and RI
aeulous action. Of all kinds, that ought TO awaken
Iae friends ef the opposition to sense Of their dan
GER and to them oake measures to repair the
injury ere il be too late.
A Il is at present, both the whig committees want
,urifyinx, remodelling and re-srganizing. The old
nen's committee is destitute Of energy and industry
The Young mems committee is pulled up with arro-
r>uee and presumption and destitute Of any quality
that entities them to be rulers or leaders OF any
party This is therefore the fit and proper time
for the gent, the honorable and independent
vhigs those that have toe mach good sense to allow
themselves to be governed by any clique, or set OF
signing speculators-to make Thorough overhaui-
ing, cleansing, and purifying Of their two commit
tees. Now is the proper time, for those who wish
IN keep the wretched loco focos from handling the
rens ef power destroying our glorious institutions
and riding rough shod over all who are opposed to
them. TO 20 into full and complete analysis Of the
causes and schemes by which the arrogant clique who
voyern the young mems committee, lost the last
election.
We shall, for our own part, in afew days go INTO
ful and detailed history Of the whole affair; we
.h.l go into the history Of all the private cabals held
nv the cl que at Broadway House; where they en-
de.vored by every means in their power, with the
utmost recklessness initiate the fol and roguery
Of the unprincipled ocofocos. We shall show how
thi. CLIQUE collected large sums Of money IN wall
.,reet and Pearl from the merchants and others
and how they expended part Of IL in the most ioosh
aud rd;culous manner imaginable, and pocketed the
balance amongst themselves. We shall show up all
tb;. in detail, and we shall give names and dates,
and sneak by .he card and il will then remain to be
seen whether the ignorant and corrupt clique eoanec
rscted with the sCourier and Enarer" are still to DC
allowed 10 rave and rule, and carry on and dictateto
their bet,er. and in short to ruin all the prospects
Of the great whig party
