Presidential EleCtiOn-Time Of Closing
the Polls.

Some days since We published the sub
stance Of a note, Of one Of our subscribers.
making inquiry whether any law had been
passed changing the time for closing the
polls at the Presidential election. The law
regulating the State election, passed last win
ter provides that the polls shall be kept open
till six O'Clock, p. M, but as no reference was
made to the Presidential election, our friend
supposed that the time for closing in Norem-
Der, would be as it had been for years
past.
Upon an investigation of the law regula-
ting elections for President. found in SWANS
Statues page 305, it will be seen that the
time for closing the polls will be "the same
hours" dc, as ''is or may be directed by law
for electing members of the General Assem-
bly, Of the State"
1t is thus seen that the judges are to keep
the polls open. at the Presidential election
till SIR s'cloeE, the same as they did at the
State election. The law fixing the time of
closing the polls at the election of State Off
eers governs the other, and settles all contro-
versy in the case. o. s. Journal

How stands the EnpIro State.

From every portion of this State We are
receiving the most cheering assurance Of pros
pective success. The Wings long ago heartily
acquiesced in our national nominations, and
they will receive the united and full vote Ol
the party. The State nomination have every.
where been received with the utmost unity
and enthusiasm, and have awakened the bes!
spirit. The Wings of the various Counties
and Congressional Districts are now making
out their local nominations, and thus far they
have presented such names as will not fail
to command the confidence and the vote of
the party, and greatly strengthen both the
Slate and National Tickets. We anticipate
the completion Of this important work in
the same style throughout the State; and
when these minor nominations are all made.
as they very soon will be, the Wings of this
State-confessedly the great battle-ground
of the Union in the contest now SO near at
hand-will present united and unbroken
front to the enemy, and will move forward
in solid phalanx. animated by singleness Of
purpose and unity of action that will make
them invincible, and inspired with conf
dence that will urge them on TO nothing short
Of a complete Il glorious triumph.
The Wings Of New York have never be-
fore stood in a better position than they have
now assumed. and that they will not fail to
maintain to the last. Never before has the
prospect in this State been brighter for the
good cause on the eve of an important cleo
ton and we can conceive of nothing that will
dim that brightness, or bring a C loud upon the
clear horizon.
AS the matter now stands. we entertain
not the shadow of doubt Of the complete
success of the Wing cause in New York. as
the result of the great days work that is to
be done on the I'd of November next; and we
would say to our friends in other States--de-
pend upon it, the Empire State will come out
Of the conflict "Whig all over" There is no
mistaking the spirit that is aroused throughout
her borders it's the same that burned SO
brightly in le40, and that blazed out again

she stood when Gems. Harrison and Taylo
were elected to the Presidency, and by her
electoral vote will elevate Gen, Scott to that
high station. Albany Reg.

WnEREAs, Tbetwo leading political parties
'Whig' and Democratic have proven recre,
ant to their previously avowed principles on
the subject of american Slavery. and by so
doing have left US either t0 reIinquish oar eiec-
tive franchise, or seek connection with others
mere congenial with liberty, Therefore
Resokred. That the aEowal fuHnd ia the
fousth resolution Of The Baltimore Democratic
Platform. that any legislative enactment can
not with fidelity 10 the constitution. Be re-
pealed. or SO changed as to destroy, or impair
its efficiency, stands opposed to the true sptisl-
ciPlts Of republcaaisln, and is daageToas TO
our liberties rs nation.

freedom Vi sperch is the mosl sacred blessing
guaranteed 10 us by the constitution, and if
compelled to reiinquish this right, o0r liberties
will no longer exist only in name.
Resolved That the foregoing sentiment de-
signed To sustain the Fugitive Slave Law, is
calculated, (as wrll as said law,) nos only to
suppress political Investigation. but also to
subject religious liberty. which no American
can surrender without compromise Of his
own conscience. and total disregard Of the law
Of God, and the well being Of man.
Resoteed, That in the exercise Of the cleo
tive franchise, we cannpt. nor aSak not support
any candidate for any Office within the gift Of
the American people, who is favorable TO the
naturalization of slavery. and who is not pled-
gedt use his influence against the enormi-
ties before referred to.
Rcsoloed, That the Independent Democrat
ic Platform, adopted by the Free Soil Con-
vention at PittsbhTg on the 18th Of August,
1852. meets with our unqualified appreciation,
and that we ind in it the true genius Of re-
publicanism, and the spirit Of universal liber-
ty; and we pledge ourselves to do battle un-
der that banner until our cause shall finally
trinmph.
ResoEUed, That the nomination Of john P.
Hale, OF n. H., for President. and George w.
