THE NEW YORK MALCoNTENrs

II was remarked by Mr.. AsHMUN, in speech at
Springfield, not long since, that "Whgs who did
not deem TAYLOR Wing enough for them, went to
Buffalo and nominated VAN BUREN" So il is
with the Wings who were engaged in the late
CLAY nomination in the city of New York. WILL
LIS HALL, in his Speech said-"I can go for Free
Soil under Van Buren," elf we shall be defeated
with him (Clay,) sooner than aba don the Free
Soil principle, shall rally under the flag of Van
Buren, !" And DUDLEY SEIDEN said-"On no

which will keep the office ont of the hands of mil

that it was to BE- found in The Constitution. a,

Thi~ omission arose from il being in the ir-r

THOMAS MCtiUGH.

The reputation of this gentleman (the
Democratic candidate for Secretary of
Slate) is shown up in rather an unfovora
BILE light by several papers in the Terrific
ry. The Elkhorn Star, published in the
immediate vicinity Of Mr.. McHngh's res
ldence saws that "his nomination is an
outrage upon the people of the S;ate-an
insult to the virtue. understanding and
general intelligence of the community
a burlesque upon Conventional nomlna-
lions" And so far as his private char
acter is concerned, It is said by good Dem
ocrats 10 be the worst of any candidate
ever offered for the sutfrages of t4e peo-
pie Of Wisconsin
But it is gravely set forth by the friends
of Mr.. McHugh that he is a champlon
of the :. Young Dem ocracy' of the wesJ
and a friend of the Homestead exemp-
lion. The following extract from a It.;-
er written by Mr.. McHugh. during the
sitting of the Constitutional Convention.
goes to prove that he is not only opposed
10 Homestead exemption, but that he
cares but little for the interests of the
working classes of our young and grow.
