The Soft wing Of the Democratic party
Of New York, are having an interesting
time Of it in Convention. The Commit
tee on Resolutions reported set of the

claliug that tie Kansas and Nebraska
troubles were the legitimate result of the

luton e laid on the table. Several Ma

Kansas matters out, and passing the res
