New YORK Cry AND THE STATE CONvBErI0NS.-
II Is fact worthy of note, that the city of New
York has very little influence by her delegates, in
the State conventions of the respective parties.
This was especially manifested 10 the recent demo-
cratic convention and that it is SO, evinces wis
dom and conservatism amongst the people Of the
State dseing beyond the reach Of city corruption.
that must crafty every one who desires purity in
the administration of our government The people
in The country beginning to understand that our
primary elections are the merest farce in the world,
and that the delegates sent to State other
tons ect in no true sense the public opinion OF
the party in whose name they are chosen. Any ono
who can get the inspectors of the election appointed
favorable 10 him, almost invariably receives from
them the certificate of election; so that the choice
Of inspectors is, practically, the appointment OF de-
legates, without regard to the votes polled. Dele
gates chosen in this way so to the convention to
serve the individual for whose benefit they were
engaged, and whatever reasons may arise for pur-
suing different course from the one laid down for
them, they have neither the capacity nor the ho-
nesty to depart from their instructions.
From the proceedings Of the late democratic con-
vention at Syracuse, appears that all the delegates
from this city, one, supported for Governor the
chairman Of the Tammany Hall committee Would
any honest democrat pretend that he the choice
Of any con derable portion Of that party in the city?
A majority of the Tammany com mittee are un-
doubtedly favorable to him; but they only about
thirty. three in number, and this thirty three had
tho appointment of the inspectors who hold the
elections, and hence delegates were chosen favorable
to their chairman for Governor. By this party mo-
chnery, an individual is presented as tho ctys
didate for high Office, who could not, without it,
ever have been thought Of in connection with il.
But the evil does not stop hero. Our local nomi-
nations are controlled in the manner, and men
arc put forward for city Offices who have no quail
ications whatever for tho places, and tho lash Of
party is put in use to compel an election Here we
may find tho reason why tho members Of tho legis.
lature and the representatives in Congress- from the
city, rarely command the respect Of those sent from
the interior of the State The Same may be said o.
the wings and between the two parties, we don't
perceive any prospect Of mitigation of tho evil
Therefore, the country has taken care to besow the
State Offices on men whose talents and qualifications
have commanded the respect and confidence Of tho
people; and it is to the country too, that We art
indebted for the generally wise legislation which ha.
characterized our State.

slap,bter AGAINST the officers of the Henry Clay.
The Grand Jury Immediately proceeded to the con-
sideraton Of the case.
A report of the debates at the last two meetings
of the Common Council win be found in paper
this morning. There was very little talking last
evening, hut large number ofpapors were disposed
of, as may be seen by reference to our official re
port. A report in relation TO the cleaning of the
streets was presented, showing the number of cart
loads Of dirt removed since the commencement of
the rear to the 3Ist Of July The amount. it ap-
peaT1, exceeds by twenty thousand loads that re.
moved during any one year since the organization
of the city government. So says the Commissioner
This, however, is very small amount when We CON-
slider the size Of the city and great increase of its
population. Some thoroughfares near the East
river, and in the upper part Of the city, lsok rs if
they had never been visited by street sweeper.
Yet, in the face of this the Commissioner congatu
lates himself and the people upon the great heaps
Of dirt which have been removed. Alderman Stur-
tevant expressed his determination to call up the
Nineteenth ward election case ut the next meeting,
and threatens to call it up every evening till it shall
be finally disposed Of The Board would contor a
favor upon reporters by placing their table some
where within hearing distance Of the members. It's
present situation renders it next to impossible for
those sitting ut it to hear all that is said
The Board of Assistant Aldermen met yesterday
evening, pursuant to adjournment, There was no
business of public interest transacted. Tho CON-
muncation from tho Comptroller, submitting an
ordinance asking for additional appropriations to
enable the Bureaus Of Department to conclude the
year, was adopted upon division. Assistant Al
derman Barker could not understand why years
appropriation was used up" in. half tho time,
and moved that it be referred to the Committee on
Ordinances. This motion was supported by two
votes and fifteen voted against it. The Board meets

which compliment they must certainly feel indebted

These eloquent convives have few other imitators
in the same line, Of some OF whom, however-like
little Raymond, for instanee-it must be said that
they have somewhat better justification in setting
themselves mp as respondents to the toast, inasmuch
as they really connected with the press Of New
York.

Of the proprietary the business men Of that in-
stitution. Few of the proprietors ever think of
personally accepting invitations TO public banquets
And when they do receive tickets for such occasions
they transfer thomas it is intended .hey should

be said, with truth, that Of that efficient body
ever make SO little Of themselves to descend TO
the practice of post-prsndial oratory. But it is
even unnecessary for them; and il, on any special
occasion, they wished to speak to the toast, they
could not do 30 without coming into unworthy COM

such assemblies, IL devolyes on tho reporters.
Mesre. Goodwin and Dana never make Themselves
uieful IL reporting, but seek another kind Of dis

Besides, when important events occur, or when
magnificent new hotels arc opened, which are to be
oommemorated by banquet, the preliminary work
Of noticing and describing them is performed by
the reporters and the laudation of them is done by
the proprietors; bat in neither capacity do these

burden is light They have only to assume the ne.

THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE Our sagacious
contemporary of the Courier has now hope for the
wings in New York. He says,

Governor Hunt is to be re- elected on tho canal
question, and he and the canals are to carry General
Scott safely through the combined squadrons OF
hunkers and barnourners, and the cross firing OF
the Hale party, ard the Goodell-Fred-Doucla
party Hunt is to give the State to Scott and the
nomination Of Seymour is to defeat Pierce What

ticket carries the Governor. Sas Wright was an
exception; but his nomination was necessary IN

showing most clearly and forcibly, the onward
progress OF the good cause, and the unexatnpled
success of the once infant colony. now the noble
Republic Of Liberia. All the exercises were
excellent aud appropriate, and were listened to
with fixed attention, and with apparent satsfac-
ton. Copies Of the report and addresses were
voted unanimously, to be published aud distri

the state; That the people, in general, may enjoy
the same pleasure, in perusal, that the audience
enjoyed in the hearing. The cause of colonial.

the people of Vermont
