the cardinal principles of the Democratic party as de-
fined by the Baltimore Convention of lS4O and reaf.
hrmed by the Convention Of sia that in Mr.. Polk as
we rely with full confidence for their maintenance and
development and in his discharge of that high duty
the city and county of New York. '
Resolved, That of those great principles none is
greater than that which is involved in the
ment atording to all branches OF American industry
and all classes Of the population equal and just
give security, and firmly unite in the Of com.
mon interest the whole American people.
Resolved, That by the national verdict Of ls4i
the scheme Of an independent Treasury was tri'
umphany vndicsted that in its full restoration at no
distant period We hope to see its inherent truth and use
dissolution Of all financial connection between the
Government and Banking Corporations-s connscn9n
odious to the Democratic party.
Resolved That in the annexation OF Texas as nus lar
accomplished, recognize with pleasure the asser-
ton Of peoples indeessbe right TO the soil which
they have acquired and improved by their labor and
skill and by their bravery and ndepe n.
dent and the power of the primal law Of democratic
progress which, without sword gold, but mighter
than either peacefully and rghteousy wins by its own
of Freedom over the earth.
Resolved That the strict enforcement Of all our right
ul claim to the territory of the Oregon is mperativey
required by proper consideration for those numerous
fellow citizens who have risked themselves and their
fortunes there, under the protection of our flag and
laws and for the interests generally Of that important
country as well as by grave reasons Of our public poll
cy and national honor.
Resolved That the act of 1892 justly entitled "An
Act TO provide for paying the debt and preserving the
credit of the State" of self from
bankruptcy and thai the principles involved
are vital in the Democratic creed accepted
by the Democratic party in the State and made funda
mental part OF their policy of State administration that
any deviation from them is in derection alike Of Demo
cratic doctrine and practices and that Governor Wrghts
veto OF the Canal Bill OF the last session the Legislature
was courageous and wise worthy OF the acceptable
to the Democratic party, and salutary to the State
Resolved That deeply impressed with the magnitude
and difficulty of the reforms needed in the Organic Law
of the State convinced that the People have too little
power and their delegates too much and that from this
capital error increasing abuses must forever fow-be
leving firmly from all past experience that great
measure OF National Reform be completed by Le
gslstiva body-we yield our entire approval to those
measures of last session, BY which fundamental pol
cal question was hy referred to the Of all pol
cal power leaving the People and to Convention di.
rect from themselves aud filed with their spirit the du

Resolved, Taat the weighy obligations imposed upon
US by the unsesh generosity with which Silas Wright
gave to himself his and services and
the settlement Of the greatest political contest have
Jet seen he has incidentally increased, by admins
tration Of our State which, eminently WISE firm and
patriotic in the midst OF uncommon difficulties regulated
by cardinal principles ofustice marked by moderation
and settled reliance on the popular sense of right has
out in its union of mental powers uprghtness of
purpose and goodness Of heart the and proper
niestation offs democratic statesman.
These resolutions were drawn up by the Silas
Wright clique, and have been attributed to Mr. Til
den, one of the nominees on the ticket tor Assem-
bly,. 1t was supposed that they contained abolition
doctrines, but that opinion does not appear to be
substantiated There is no abolition in them.
They are merely characteristic of that doublefac
policy and vague language which has marked the
political school of the Sandy Hill politicians, in
cudlng Mr. Van Buren,, for twenty years past. 1t
Is quite evident that they have proceeded from the
Silas Wright clique, for there is studied effort ap-
parent in the resolutions to give Silas
hoist in the way Of political advancement, but we
doubt very much whether Si'as Wright stands as
well, even among his own party, as he did for
merly.
In other respects the resolutions ale rather curl
Gus. Of Mr.. Polk they speak cautiousy-ot the
tariff very enigmatical-o Texas annexation vague
ly-ofl the Oregon question ditto-and the rest o
them Of Silas Wright in terms of high praise Well
the Governor certainly wants praise. His conduc
since his induction into the gubernatoral chair has
not answered the expectations of his friends mol
ours. His long, vague, milk and water messages,
in which he takes all sides of question, as, for in
stance, in the of the ant-rent business are no,
at all the thing this day of frank, energetic deter.
mined action We approve, decidedly, of the reso-
utons that were adopted at Tammany Hail. They
are bold, candid, explicit and possess the proper
characteristics of the present age and American de-
mocracy.
