New York Politics.

The great Convention Of :. Softs lat Syra-
cuse last week, had a time of it, The control
OF 1t was in the hands of such immaculate
patriots as Isaiah E,ndcrs, John Cochrane
and others of that kicncy--lncn who believe
that the great end OF government is to furn-
l7h lucrative Offices for those who by any
means (whethcr fair or foul it matters not
much) can get it under the control of them
selves or of those whowill favor their wishes.
Resolutions must therefore be passed to back
up the Pierce Administration, fully, in all
that it had done and al that it is expected to
| do. Some alIuslOn tC the Nebraska bill

IMPROVEMENTS IN sUNBURY.

The gcnuses of demolition ard recon-
suction have large work 10 do in Sunbnry.
We hope, however, soon to see many Of
the old, unsightly buildings of the place,
especially some that are occupied as hotels
and stores, giving place TO new and more
commodious structures. a great obstacle
in the way Of Improvement, this season,
has been scarcity OF mechanics. Good
builders, carpenters and brick-laye-s are
much wanted We have those who under
stand their business, and work carefully
enough, certainly; but not enough TO DO
The work required 20 be done. Sunbury is
looking up; our citizens are beginning 10

iages, capital is, at length, being directed

TnE4Tn or JULY IN s,lAmoKIN.

On our way from Philadelphia we arr-
we'd at Shamokin on the morning Of the 4th
inst, and remained there during the day.
Extensive preparations had been made 10
celebrate our nations birthday in proper
manner. The great luminary of light also
did his best TO add warmth 10 the proceed
ings. In the forenoon The children oil the
schools paraded in procession, headed by
teachers and others. Their great number
surprised us considerable, and we began to
doubt whether children or coal was going
to be the greatest staple of production at
Shamokin. About 2 o'clock, p. NJ. the
citizens generally, proceeded by the Sha-
mokn Guards, a fine company commanded
by Capt. David N. Lake, proceeded 10 the
woods adjoining the town, where seats,
&C., had been prepared for the occasion.-
The venerable ]. P. Helfenstien was called
to the chair, assisted by VIM. FageIy and
Kimber Cleaver, Esqs., as Vice Presidents,
and DR.. J. ]. John as Secretary. The
chairman having briefly stated the object of
the meeting, a prayer was offered by the
Rev. Mr.. Ehreheart, at the conclusion Of
which "America" was sung in excellent
style by DR.. Atwater, Mr.. R. Helfenstien
and S. nj. ksse, Esq. We were perticu-
arly gratified with the rich, deep, full
toned base OF the Doctor. S. nj. Kase,
Esq, then delivered well written oration
delinating the most important events OF
the Revolution. He was followed by Mr..
R. Helfensten in nea:, chssIe and classi-
cal speech, in reply 10 a toast to the mem
ory Of Washington. Mr.. Helfenstien pos
sesses fine imagination, and cultivated
taste. A volunteer toast on '.the past, pres
ent and the future OF Shamokin," brought
ont DIR. Atwater, in poetical speech,
which for wit, humor, and sentiment has
rarely been eqnalled. II was admirably
spoken and was received with rounds oil
applause. The Doctor commenced by al
ludng in humorous manner 10 Shamokin
some FIVE years ago when it was almost
deserted, and contrasted its appearance
then with its present flourishing condition
We never publish 4th Of July orations, ex-
cept the short Ones by the people, COM
monty called toasts, but we were anxious
to make the Doctors an exception, and
regret that we could not prevail upon him
for a copy.

In less lime than /, took Methuselah to get
out of swaddiug.cloihes we have made more
canals, tanned more lightning, and harnessed
more steam, and at greater cost in money,
than the whole revenue Of the world could

In seventy-fve years we have not only
charged the politics of the earth, bit It's

cd more common sence than was taught in
the previous four thousand years. The-pro-
blsm Of self government has been solved,
and lis truth made immortal as Washington

wants Of the more aspiring nations has been
made most signally manifest. Under lis
