MOVEMENTS IN New YoRK-The N. Y.
Evening Post says: GA gentleman, just from
some of the most populous counties in the In
terror OF this State, informs US that the feeling
among the democrats in relation to the Balti-
more nomination is the same as that of revo-
luton"
The n. Y. Western Argus heads an article
on the subject of the Convention thus: THE
NATIONAL CoEvENTIoN-Neqr York hsulted-
Southern influence again Triumphant. The
people Indignant. Among other most point
ed and emphatic remarks the tArgus" says
aside from the unheard of outrages perpetra-
ted on our delegation, the action of the con
vention has not, nor can have, upon any rules
OF propriety, any binding force whatever, I'M
less itbe upon those States that have pledged
themselves no'ens DOlens, TO support the nom
nations, and those only"
The Jefferson Democrat thus boldly holds
forth.
ssThe suspense is over. The Baltimore Con-
yention has met, deliberated-if that can be
called deliberation where there conclusion was
bitrary majority solely in reference 10 this con-
eiusion-and again dissolved ITSELF The re-
suit of this meeting is the exhibition of viz
tual determination on the part of the delegates
OF the once democratic party, TO aid in the in
definite expansion of slavery in the new terri
tories that have been or are to be acquired by
| the United States. The action Of this conven-
ton we repudiate; the candidate presented by
it, so long as volition remains with us, shall
never receive our suffrage. We repudiate the
action of the convention"
= = y
owe refuse TO give our SURFACES to Lewis
Cass, the candidate selected By this convention,
because, if New York had been allowed its
just representation, the convention. under its
rules, could not have selected him as its cam
didate
because, so far from being the choice of
the people at the north, with single excep-
ton no man is so odious to them bat he has
been made candidate against their wishes, by
the corruption, and the purchase and sale OF
intriguing politicians who would secure their
unholy ends by the nomination of a tool, as
simulated to themselves"
Oh, Moses! High treason ''Flat Burgla-
ry!" Corruption! PURCHASE! SALE! Intrigue!
UNHoLY ENDS! Lewis Cass TOOL, like the
men who nominated him! And all this is said
by Democrats, not Wings! Alas, what wick
ed world What wicked world"
The 0gdensburgh Republican thus indig-
nantly speaks:
THE stupendous scheme of fraud concocted
to disfranchise New York has been consumma-
ted. 1t IS idle to plead that both delegations
were admitted. The convention well knew
that the legal representatives of New York
would never consent to sit with the spurious,
illegal delegates, and that to do so, would ac-
knowledge in them an equal claim to SEATS
Thus, we say, the great scheme, which was got
up from the beginning for that purpose, has
been consummated in the Acknowledgement of
New York. She has had no part or lot in the
nomination of Gen. Cass, neither will she sup
port him. The rights of New York have been
ruthlessly crushed and her democracy insulted
Every democrat in the State of New York,
whose representative voice was stfed in that
body, will feel that insult and Indignantly re-
| pei it,
A great meeting in Troy, N. Y, has reaf-
frmed the doctrine of the Wilmot Proyso and
declared that the action of the Baltimore Con-
vention has no binding authority upon the
New York Democracy.
With an extract from the Mohawk Courier
we close. simply remarking that between New
| York and South Carolina, the supporters of the
Baltimore ticket must realize how true is that
declaration of Sacred Wit, aye cannot serve
two masters"
Says the Courier:
'Who shall save the republic? Our trust
is not in Presidents, but in God and the Peo-
pie.
s'As for these nominations of the Baltimore
convention, we do not hesitate to say, that il
the candidates were of our first choice, we
should feel under no party obligations to sup
port them, after the glaring outrage commits
ted by the convention against our noble Com
monwealth. These vain boosters can do with
out New York! Our voice is let Ihem-le
them. The battle-felds of Saratoga, Platts
burgh. Chippewa and 0riskany, have PROVED
that New York can take care of herself"
