The revelations" OF TIE organs beat those
of ANDREW JACKSON DAVIS out OF sight. Just
listen to the Albany Ereni',g .Jom7sh, which
sustans the Sewardtes:
The Wing Party is party Of principle. The
masses who compose it are made up of true
men, who would despise Il enselves if, like
their opponents, they could be 'driven about
by every wind of doctrine" When they took
ground in favor Of Freedom upon Free Soil 7
they meant it. II was not Il principle ayowed
for the contemplate purpose of catching votes.
It's avowal doubtless attracted thousands to our
ranks. But they identified themselves with us
because they had faith in our professions. To
abandon this principle now, would be TO dis
grace ourselves, and TO excite the contempt OF
true men everywhere. But no such hun iliAtion
awaits us. The Representatives of the party,
in State Convention, have saved us from the
ignominy which course contrary to that which
was pursued, would nave fastened upon ua.
But the same thing does not look quite so
clear to the Duerites. or the -]ittle-Ionger
wing, and the Boston Courier also in the clair
yoyante state, thus snubs the Sewardites.
Speaking of the rejected resolutions, it goes
on to say;
These resolutions to any main whose brains
are not bewildered by the one idea of anti
slavery, would appear to be strong enough upon
all the cardinal points upon which the Wing
party are united, to have obtained the support
of every member of the Convention. The diff
ference of opinion between Senator Seward and
the great majority of the Wing representation
from New York in Congress, upon the slavery
question: was honoraby and fairly treated The
broad declaration was set forth that the Whig
party of New York remain unal.erably opposed
to the extension Of slavery over territory now
free, and have no doubt of the constitutional
power of Congress. to prohibit such extension.
This should have been enough to satisfy the
strongest advocate for personal freedom in the
Wing ranks. The resolutions were unexcep-
tionable they treated delicate and somewhat
embarrassing theme with the utmost discretion,
forbearance and good judgment; they ptit forth
no sentiments, no opinions that could be dis
tasteful to any reasonable member of the Wing
party. Had they been adopted there would
have been 40 discord in the Convention. Disa
greeing on minor points of principle or policy
rs the members did, there was ground sutfi-
GENTLY broad for all to stand on.

The CoTToN CRop IN MADISON County, Miss.
The Canton miss. )Creoe, of the l4th ut. says;
"The weather having been fair for the last six
days, there has been good deal of cotton picked.
The crop is made; the topping-in pursuance of
the boll-worm exterminatng recpe-has cut off
the top crop. The dry weather, the boIl-worm
and the worm humbug, have shortened the crop at
least l.. One-half the cotton most the plantations

of the boil worm; they cutting off the young

short in this county; we hear planters say, who
ought to know, that their crops are shortened

He gives the following information as to the
real state of public feeling at the North, derived
from his own personal observation.

CRors IN TExAs.--The crops of corn in the Vi

to be more abundant than they have been for ma

10th, says; Sour accounts of the crops continue
for anything like full crop of cotton. Some of
our best informed citizens express the opinion
tha. we shall not realize in this State more than
half of an average crop, but we incline to think
that this estimate is certainly too low"

| MOVEMENTS OF New YoRK VINO SEcEpERs-
The split in the Wing party in New York, in con
sequence of the proceedings of the State conven-
tion in Syracuse, is much commented upon. The
mass of Wings, it is stated, are unanimous in the
opinion that it was highly iniudicious on the part
Of the majority Of that body to insist the pas
sage Of the obnoxious resolutions. The address
of the seceders has heen put forth:

of the Syracuse convention, and endeavors to
show that everything had been done, that

adopted by the convention reopen that controver-

build up an Abolition party on the remains of the
