teriously Is some other laws, &C., &C., are the
real issues Of this canvass
II is nos Mr.. Buchanan's administration, nor
Kansas, ner Tammany Hall, nor the cid exploded
fummery Of hacds aud softs, nor Mayor Wood,
nor Peter Cooper, nor Conrad Swackhamer, nor
the Custom House spoils, that the majority of the
people of New York, city and State have to vote
upon in November; but it is upon this simple
question whether the corrupt and reckless spoils
and plumber mongers Of the Seward, Weed aud
Matteson conspiracy, expelled from the public
land spols and the public treasury at Washing
ton, and taking refuge at Albany, shall be con-
tinued in power there or driven out?
That proposition comprehends all the practi-
cal issues for November. In purely local cleo
ton, exclusively upon local affairs and local
Offices, there is no need of going either to WASH
neton or Kansas for political capital The
enemy must be fought face to face; for if he il
permitted to slip off upon side issues, he may
clip through our fingers. He must be held to a
full and strict accountability for his acts; and
thus arraigned before the people, his condemna-
ton and expulsion are sure.
TO this END the Syracuse Convention has been
trying to do something; and upon the masses Of
the democracy of all factions, and upon the in
dependent people of the State of all other par
ties, will devolve the task of supplying all de.
fciencies in the election. Entirely satisfied that
there is a heavy majority of the people of the
State opposed to the last infamous Legislature
and its infamous acts all that is needed to secure
wholesome revolution is to fight this battle for
the next Legislature exclusively upon the ras.

Gus In Virginia politics since the days OF Capt

Mr.. Bolts should absent himself from his native
