The doings of our Republican State Convention
are sore disappointment to the enemies OF the
Republican cause. They desired and expected
to be able to raise against candidates the cries
of corruption, "prohigscy," bleeding New.
York." &c &c, and they frd themselves CON-
petely at fault To raise these Outcres against such
candidates as Messrs. JENKINS, CLAPP, DENNIS
TON. GEDDEs HoGEBOOM, YIlURSTON and KIRK
PATRICK, would be simply ridiculous. The partl-
sans of the Pro. Slavery organ grinders would laugh
at such preposterOus electioneerng. There is not
man on the Republican State ticket who is in any
manner obnoxious to the charge, or even the
suspicion, of having made money, or helped Others
to make it, at the expense of the State. Inc TACT
that an aspirant was, even urju'tly, suspected OF
having profted by or cOnnyed at prodgal or cor'
rupt legislation would in any case have proved Al
nsuperable bar to his success before that ConVen-
ton. its nominees are not merely above reproach;
they are beyond the reach of caumpy.
A grave difference formerly existed between
those republicans " no were then Wings and those
who were Radical Democrats, &c to the Cana
Policy of our STATE. Itwas an honest difference
and honestly fought out. Time and events have
almost wholly ehaced The grounds of that antag-
onisnl. The Canals are Oh the verge of completion.
The Constitution forsids any further creation of
Debt. The year 1858 must witness the consum
NATION Of the Erie Enlargement, and the extra
taxes Of 1867 and 1853 must pay tAs unlquidated
ccst. All that remains is to see that sbs work is
done economically, promptly, faithfully and that
no "quicksand" or "hardpan" juggle In per.
ptted to increase the charges Of the contractor.
The Republican State Officers will treat those re,
tlemen with strict equity, but nothing more. II
they are not satisfied with that they will support
one or the other of the hostile tickets Their at.
tempt to dictate our nominations failed deporably
as simple glance over the list Of delegates might
have assured them il would; but if equal and
exact justice will satisfy them they can obtain il
| of a Republican Canal Board. Ii not, they msy 20
further and fare-as may De.
All parties are now agreed that the Canals must
be completed forthwith and that whatever Of their
coat is unpaid must be met by taxatOn. The Re

Our readers will recollect that the dismissal OF
Governor Geary from bis place as Governor OF
Kansas grew out of difference of opinion be-
tween him and Chief Justice Lecompte. We ssy
the dismissal of Governor Geary, for, though
nominaly the Governor resigned, yet in substance
and effect be was turned out. The difference OF
opinion between Governor Geary and Chief Justice
Lecompte was this: Geay thought that cold
blooded murdesers, even though their victims were
Free. State men, ought to be punished, or at least
ought to be tried. As to both these points, Le-
compte held contrary opinion, in which he was
sustained by the Democratic majority in the
Senate who refused to consent to his removal-a
refusal in which President Buchanan acquesced by
leaving Lecompte in Office. OF course, nothing re-
mained except for Geary to resign.
Governor Walker has lately got himseif into a
similar conflict with Judge Cato, who is hardly lees

The much.ialked.of Boston Magazine is adver-
tised to appear on the 1st of November under the
name of The atlantic. What the special signii-
cancy of this name may be, is matter for conject-
ure Is it intended to put Us in mind OF the myth
illogical Atlas who sustained the world on his
shoulders, and does it embody hint to the learned
that this new Magazine is ready and willing to 90
the same good office for our American world OF
letters Or perhaps the alusion is to the Atlantic
Ocean. If SO, We can't think it happy one
The ocean is, indeed grand and vast but it also Is
bitter and barren. These latter characteristics are
not desirable in Magazine, nor are the others
within its scope. If saltwater name be abso-
lutey necessary, we would suggest the newly
invented Aquarium as much better adapted to fur
nish one. A Magazine is not an arena In which
whales swim or levisthans disport themselves.
Nor are fish Of vulgar utility, such as cod and
mackerel, able to furnish food to keep men alive,
expected to be found there. A glass box, not too
big for parlor ornament, filed with strange
cookies, curious sea-weeds, and fishes gaudy and
cleaning, handsome to look at rather than good to
eat-the whole contents calculated TO please the
eye and to furnish sort of pretense of studous
occupation to the idle-science made excruciatingly
easy, and brought within the reach of lollers on
sofa cushiOns-is not this much nearer the idea Of
Magazine than anything which the ocean can
suggest
1t may be, however, that in choosing this name,
our Boston friends had in mind the well-knOwn
lines of Gray,
"Full many gem Of psrest ray serene
The dark untathomed csyes Of ocean beari'
and perhaps they INTENDED to present their Magazine
nuder the symbol of divingbell or other contriv-
ance for bringing some of these concealed treasures
to the surface Yet the title may suggest other less
pleasing IDEAS The Atlantic is noted for its storms
and shpwreck, and is much more apt to swallow
treasures than to them yield up.
We shall offer but one more conjecture. Per
haps the name is but delicate allusion to the
large quantity of valuable matter the Magazine is
to contain, imported from across the oceau, and to
the fact that it is to serve as sort Of connecting
link between Old England and New England. After
all, the name is but Of little consequence. The
rose by any other name would smell as sweet and
not only that, but would soon impart portion of
its own sweetness to any name by which it might
happen to be called.
New-York daily tribune., 1857-09-28

influence exercised BY Railroads over Legislators
by means Of free passes is pernioious corup-
ton. prodieality, and legislation for individual ben
eff. must cease-and that the Right Of Suffrage
must be protected by the most stringent provi-
sons against Illegal Voting If any party stands in
opposi.ion to these reforms-and we do not ac-
cuss any Of so doing-so much the worse for
that party.
There remains, however, one great issue to be
passed upon by the People Of New.York at our en-
suing election 1t is the issue of Slavery EIten-
zion against Free Labor in the Territories. Mr..
BuchaI an, in his recent letter to the New Haven
memorialifts, has deliberately affirmed the extreme
Southern dogma that Siarny erisS in Kansas BY
rirtue Of the Federal Constitution. OF course, the
attempt of Congress to exclude it by the Missouri
Restriction Of 1920 was nullity and the repeal Of
that Restriction by Douglass Nebraska bill was
nsnifest futility. Such is the tendency Of the
Southern Judges opinions in the Dred Scott case;
but Mr.. Buchsnan's avowal is more direct and
sweeping even than theirs. 1t is the key to his
Kansas policy; it would, if just afford some paia-
ton for the outrages of the Border Rufians. II
the Federal Constitution planted Slavery in all
the Territories of the Union, then the attempt Of
the great majority of the People of Kansas to eI-
cude while their Territorial condition continued
wa. unwarranted and in derogation Cf the vested
rights of the shareholders. But If these assumptions
are baseless and the policy of Slavery exclusion and
prohibit on which has received the official sanction
of Washington, Jefferson, Madison and Monroe,
was constitutional and proper, then the Border
RufiiaDs are aggressors and usIrpers, and the sup
port given them by the Federal Administration has
been wicked and atrocious. We are brought face
to face, then, with great question of Priocip,e,
based on issues of fact Either Free Labor or
Slavery is an intruder in Kansas, and must be
elected. On which side Of this grave issue shall
New York be counted after November next'

The Commercial Adrertiser has found mares
nest-no very unusual thing with that journal, and
yet it crows over the discovery as if this was the
first it had ever made. In reference to the third
resolution passed by the Republican State Conven.
ton, that print has the following:
"On this point we cannot forbear word of COM
ment This resolution is in the following words:
80 ResOred That the State of NewYork will allow
less he be slave escaped from smother State and reclaimed
under the Constitution o, the United states.
This expressly recognizes the c0nstttutiOndlity Of
the Fugitive Stare lar. Judging from the remarks
made in the Convention by the Chairman Of the Com
mittee on Resolutions, d. u. Field, Esq, it was de-
signeGly framed to include such recognition, and
to proclaim to the State and country that the Repub
can party of the State henceforth abandons its oppOs
ton to that enactment Notwithstanding all that the
party presses I'D party leaders have written and said
on the subject. The change is great indeed
So far from recognizing the cOnstitutionality Of
does not even recognize the possibility Of framing
any Fugitive Slave law that would be constitutional
1t merely admits that fugitive slaves are included
in the clause of the Constitution which relates to
fugityes from service; but it contains nothing
upon the point how they are to be returned whether

who hold that Congress has no power to legislate
upon the subject and that the constitutional pro-
vision can only operate as is the case with several

effect on the State tribunals, might vote well as
any party for this resolution. And now when We
add that the Convention did not pass this rssolrc at

THE LEGISLATURE TO BE CONVENED.
epec,A Dispe.ch to The N. Y. Tribune.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. "a, I55Y.
Gov.Pollock reached here on Saturday, having beea
summoned TO conference on the condition of tho
banks. A proclamation will be Issued on Tuesday con.
venng the Legislature the Och Of October. The old
Legislature expires immediately afters new electios.
so that the extra session will be limited to one week.
Whatever relief can be afforded is needed immediate
ly or this eau wonld be delayed. 1t is probable thst
the Legislature will put all banks the same footing
including the Bank of Pennsylvania, against which
adverse efforts will be made here. Its futur. bas
ness cannot be affected by this legislation since 1t
must depend on the confidence of the community
