this evening to exchange sentiments to what will be
the result OF the election He whom we place before YOU
as our standard bearer Horatio Seymour Governor Of
the State Of New York, and to be Governor Of New
York (Applause.) The charges against him made by
his enemies, have been repeated at every corner and
every attempt has been made to deprecate his character
They who last evening spoke against him. aspcrsed his
character as man and officer. It has been stated
that all national issues have been smohered in this

ADDRESS or THE YOUNG MEMS DEMOCRATIC UNION
CLUE TO THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
FnLow CirIzHNs-ln this crisis feel bound to issu
to you calm and earnest appeal Our last address
it's object the union Of the democratic party For this
our second appeal we claim still higher motivc-the
tonal rights and franchises
We do not expect that voice win be potent enough
claim for ourselves no peculiar merit but as men the
particular study Of whose lives is the effect Of political
events and systems ask you citizens Of the State
New Yorkhe greatness and prosperity Of which State
ments which our rejection has suggested II you dnd
reject them In any event. an enlightened regard for
the rights Of your fellow citizens and the best interests
OF your State govern your conduct.
On tho 7th day Of November next you will have 10
decide between two systemshe restrictive coercve
system, and all the widest "isms' Of the day, in the
person OF Myron H. Clark, and the voluntary repubu
system, wise regard for equal rights and fidelity
to the Union and the constitution, in the person Of
Horatio Seymour.
We have already chosen the latter; and for these
reasons
Because after patient consideration OF his acts, an
tecedents and Affiliations We convinced that Myron
Clark is not at safe to be the Governor OF this State
Neither his character talents could add any ustre
to the ONCE which has been filed by many just

Is simply puppet OF other mems designs; and that in
the hands of VIM H. Seward he IL ready TO act any VIC

real purpose Of his election IL the return of wm

on TO accomplish both, is the "Mane law" The uti
