The following article on this subject, which copy
from the Journal OF Commerce. paper which is not
only neutral in politics, but, far know, entirely
impartial as between the sections of the democratic
ray in New York-contains statistics well worth
noting as an explanation Of the vote recently in the
Empire State We leave our readers to Judge for them
selves as to what the Journal says upon the opinions
Of the two sections Of democrats in New York, and also
upon the taken in regard to the Wilmot Provso
by the politicians who got up the Herkimer convention
and thereby gave the State for time to the wings On
this point have only to remark, IN addition to
what we have already said, that the deep feeling OF
the Herklmer men in respect to the Proviso appears
to us to have broken out with somewhat surprising
sdenness in the New York election, just so soon as
they found it could be seized upon raying point Of
opposition to the Syracuse proceedings and nominations
The democrats Of Pennsylvania in their late triumphant
Aecon certainly did not rally upon the Proviso. They
took the same ground in the matter that the major
ity at Syracuse took They declined to intepolae the
Proviso principle into the creed which they went to
the polls The wings of Pennsy rallied on the Pro-
yso as the wings in New York did, and were defeated
The defeat was Judgment so far verdict against
Provso AT any rate doubt that the result In
Pennsyl va least verdict 10 the effect that the
Proyso question ought to be agated but, the
contrary merged in the other great party issues Yet even
The Evening Post nothing to find fault with in the
course of the Pennsylvania democracy On the contrary
published article rejoicing the triumph of DEM
ocratic principles and in that State. And just the
same time the Post and the Herkmer men were taking
their to bolt away from the democratic
ton at Syracuse and defeat its nominations expressly on
the ground that refused bring forward into the can
vass new article of political faith which had been at
least equally left Of their creed by the democrats of
Pennsylvania So it to this that the Post and its
Herkmer friends first professed themselves quite salts
fled with the and the principles of the Pennsyl
vana democrats, and then defeated the democratic party
in New York, by boiling away from the majority of the
Syracuse convention, which put forth the principles
and took the same course But we will detain our read
