peTtnaciousy adhered % is the assertion OF division
among the Democracy OF New York, and whatever the
secret comfort t<nce extracted by its authors, yet
proper difference TO the opinion OF the public induces
to declare continuing nteg gritty and unity
party. Whether we revert 10 the period when
the Democratic masses banned the factlous lew, who
cl6mored At Albany for State expenditure and debt,
10 that more recent time when At the cry raised BY
the same csnspirators at Syracuse for spos and bond
age, the public voice swelled into snthemas asa.nit

dsiranchise New York greater than It's power TO

within its delegated trusts. The voice OF one state sup
pressed aud that OF another counereied deranged t
