The PARTY Conf ENTIoNs IN ALBANY.-We refer
our readers to the Legislative proceedings at Al
bany, for the last few days, but particularly those in
the Senate Of Wednesday last. 1t seems that poll
tical affairs in New York are in shocking condi-
ton. The tall Of dynasties is matter Of history,
and is always interesting, exhibiting the vanity
OF human affairs, the uncertain tenure OF power the
fall OF the great to nothIngness II we look narrow
ly into the ordinations and recriminations OF
politicians at Albany, all will be likely to see that
the Van Buren, dynasty is tottering, and may be
wholly killed by the deadly thrusts and attacks OF
its own friends Nothing can exceed the bitterness
and virulence with which the two sections or dv-
sions of the great democratic party of our State
daily attack each other.
In these furious onslaughts, the old hunkers, or
Van Buren, Wright party, seem to lose strength
daily, and the power which they have so long
welded, may be said to have slipped out Of their
hands. A new organization will be the conse-
quence Of all this New men must be selected to

De mat the democrats generally will lose the pow er
