We are asked almost every hour how il is possible
that the State Of New York should her vote for
JAMES X. Polk, who had been twice beaten and reject
I'd IN his own State when seeking The Office Of Governor
The answer is perfectly prlh and simple. IN The
first place, the aboIi,,oniss have done all in their
power, utterly reckless of ptintiplc, To create di
visions, and thus damper upon the Efforts Of The
Wings, hut they alne could have accump lsled it,

lrlshncn have been put al work the canals under
pretext o making repairs. and more than twenty thou
sand OF them have been naiurazd in the State under
the Management, oi party committees aud political clerks
and Judges In every place men have been employed
for all no presented themselves, AND prrjues by
thousands upon thousands have been Committed with
scarcely disguise. The victory las been secured by
appeals IL Europe against America, and c
zens the If the sol and the descendants Of the pat
riots 81 the Revolution. have been trbdden down md
their interests crushed by foreign merc-naries. II is
needless to Disguise The truth, attempt paaic the
facts in theft disgusting odousness. II such abuses
10 continue without restraint check il mockery for
Americans to talk Of liberty for they no lsnger rule
themselves. Perhaps sumo Of friends my think il
ell 10 submit longer and quietly 10 such tremendous
buses; but in opinion. 1t Is high time to speak out.
We intend not To take new position, abandon the
Wing platform, compromise Wing principles for a
single hour bu, as 10 submitting quietly to such
sous oulrages upoi rights and privileges Ameri
cans, we shall not.

The public lands were solemnly pledged for the

on this condition Congress accepted them; but
while millions on millions have been gersuausly
granted to these younger sisters of the Union,
nothing has been given to the other states,
except one loan of surplus revenue, and one soita
