‘Correspondence if the Gazette.
Nnw Yoax, May 1, 1846.
DEAR Sm :—The election of Delegates to
revise the Constitution of this State took place on
Tuesday. ~.It passed oil‘ peaceably and quietly.
There were no rows even in the “bloody Sixth”
,ward—-a fact worthy of remembrance. The loco-
,foco candidates were elected by large majorities
—by majorities somewhat larger than they
would have received had there been no opposi-
tion to them. Not tnore than one-half of our
citizens seemed to know that there was an elec-
tioti on that day. _ The nterchants quietly went
about their business, as careless and unconcern-
ed as if it had been only an election for consta-
bles and assessors. I hope the day may never
come when they will have cause to regret this
uiiconccrn. But when a Constitution manufac-
tured by Tammany Politicians shall be fastened
on the State—when our highestjudicial stations
shall be filled by demagogues, and the edicts of a.
political caucus shall usurp the place of indepen-
dent legal decisions when the security by which
men possess and enjoy their wealth shall depend
_upou the caprice of an ever-changing populace
”——then the citizens of New York‘ may with bit-
ter, but unavailing regrets, mourn overtheir neg-
lect of duty and their inattention to the highest
interests ofthe. State. I do not say that such
a day will come, but I fear that this Conven-
tion will do its utmost to hasten its coming.
The returns from the interior of the State
however encourage us to hope that there will be
sufiicient conservatism in the Convention to put
down the radicalism of Tammany Hall. The
\Vhigs will probably be in the minority, but aid-
ed by the “Old I-Iunlters," they will be an over
match for the progressive Democrats.
Mr. McKenzie, whose biography of Hoyt,
Butler 6.: Co. attracted so much attention a few
months ago, has lately added another chapter to
the history of Van Burenism. This last work
fully reveals the knavery and trickery by which
Locofocoistn so long maintained its ascendancy
in the Empire State. It contains many original
letters which show the heartlessness of Mr. Van
Buren, and the contempt with which he regar-
ded this “dear people.” It ‘ is wonderful that
this State and tiio Nation could have been so
longduped by political jugglers. Mr. Van Bu-
ren no doubt has often laughed at the credulity
sions of love for their interest, were true and
sincere. Mr. V. B. has many sins to answer
for. I speak not simply of the commercial ruin
and distress which his measures brought upon
the country, nor of the individual poverty and
suffering which followed in their train, but of the
moral blight that attended his administration.
He lowered the standard of political morality
——appcaled to the- basest passions of man, and
filled the public ofiices with partizan blackguards.
During the whole of his public life he acted on
the avowed principle that “all is fair in politics"
—“that to the victors belong the spoils," and
and crawling meanness, to secure the triumph of
party. Let those who doubt the correctness of
these charges read the letters which Mr. Mac-
kenzie has brought to light. .
I see that Mr. Chipman, the distiuguislied
democratic Representative from Michigan in-
tends to honor New York with a visit. Though
not the first to discover that ignorance and mod-
ern Democracy are synonymous terms, he is the
first man of his own party who had the boldness
to make the discovery public. I hope the Dem-
ocrats here will give him a becoming reception.
If deinagogues are not honored and held in cs-
teom by the “dear people," their laboris in vain.
Besides, Mr. Chipman has acquired a high rep-
utation abroad. His speeches have attracted
the attention of English Statesman, and his
name occupiesa conspicuous place in the last
number of Blackwood’s Magazine. Let us
then not fail in paying due respect to his genius
and fatn e.
I wish Mr. Chipman could have been in
Brooklyn last Monday night. He there would
have witnessed a scene which would have made
his heart leap for very joy. Drums beating,
banners waving, boys screeching, loafers march-
ing——this was a glorious sight to see. The
Brooklyn Empire Club was out in full strength,
and their banners attracted marked attention.
On one was inscribed “no negro suffrage” on
another “Equcl rights to all,” (I copy spellatim)
“we are opposed to all monopolies.” \Vltat a
beautiful exhibition of the intelligence and con-
sistency of “progressive democracy ! ” With
what patriotic pride would Mr. Chipman have
looked upon that scene ?
I suppose you have heard of J olm Cotton
Smith——the noisy, pompouss, ruffled-shirt, Con-
necticut John Cotton. \Vel1, he has appeared
on a. new theatre of political action. After his
sore defeat in your Congressional District last
Spring, he concluded it would be better for him
to emigrate to a more Democratic clime. And
accordingly he catne to this city, where very
many aspiring young men do congregate. His
fame had probably preceded him ; but be that
as it may, the National Reformers would not
suffer a man of so great genius to remain in
obscurity. They nominated him as a candidate
for the Constitutional Convention, and he only
failed of his election by soino 15,000 votes. Do
not be disheartened Mr. Smith. Your genius
“will out” one of these days. Besides, all of
our good citizens did not know that you were
in favor of negro su_[]‘rage, or you would have re-
ceived a larger vote. _
N. P. Tallmadge, Ex-Governor of Wisconsin,
is now in this city. He has taken up his rest-
dencc in Wisconsin Territory and will undoubt-
edly again figure in politics. I should not be
at all surprised to hear of him again as U.
Senator. But his power and influence are
gone. The people never will honor an incon-
Slsteflta tim9'S°l‘Vl!1g politician. A firm adl1e-
rence to principle, and that only, can command
enduring respect and consideration. But I can-
not enumerate all the great men now in the city
and I will stop. Vl7e have had many Lions here
this week and some greater and noisier than
Van Amburgh's. By the by I understand Van
Amburgh dc Co. will exhibit in Norwalk soon.
A rare chance it will be to see wild animals.

three days past. It has been literally turned

GRAND EN'ram:.—On Thursday next Van-
Amburghs splendid collection of trained animals
will make its grand entree into this _place.——
The procession which will probably reach here
during the forenoon, will be‘ decidedly the most
imposing exhibition ever witnessed by our cit-
izens. The Roman Chariot which precedes
the line, and contains the Band, has never prob-
ably been approached iti magnificence either in
the new or old world. It is drawn by eight no-
ble black horses of mammoth size,.in the most.
glittering and costly trappings. These alone
would be worth a pilgrimage to see. One liiiti-
dred and fifty horses. and fifty carriages com-
the most eminent physicians of our city. Du-
ring most of the time her sufferings have been
excrutiating and deplorable. _About 3 months
since she‘ was induced to try Dr. Jag/ne's Alter-
at2"ve,. which has had an astonishingly happy ef-
fect upon her, by removing all pains and swell-
ings, and causing the ulcers to heal", while at
the same time‘ her‘ general health has become’
completely restored, so that. she now weighs
some 25 lbs. more than she‘ did before she com-
menced the use of this truly valuable prepara-
t'ion.—P/tile. Na/.2"re Eagle.

OFFICIAL VOTE.
' \Ve give in another part of this paper the of-
ficial vote for. Governor at the late election in
this State. It will be seen that. the whole num-
her of votes given for Governor was 57.273
Clark Bissell (\Vhig) received 27.822

Last Spring the whole number was 57,908
Gov. Baldwin (\Vhig) received 29,508

Scattering 2149:
This return makes the Locofoco vote last
Spring somewhat greater than previous cites,
and of course, somewhat changes the estimates
heretofore based on the non-ofiicial vote. M r.
Toucny’s vot.e runs up to nearly a thousand
over his vote of last Spring.
If the \Vhigs had polled as large a vote this
year as last, their entire State ticket would have
been elected by the people.
Viaoinm ELECTION.-—Tll6 result. of the
election in the “Old Dominion,” for Delegates,
and members of the Senate, so far as received,
shows a \Vhig gain in both branches of the Le-
gislature, but not sufiicient to change the polit-
ical character of that body. The \Vhigs have
elected 55 delegates and the Locos 61——the for-
mer having gained 12, and the latter 6——a net
W'hig gain of 6. The Vllhigs have gained one
Senator. '

NATIONAL FAIR AT VVASI-IINGTON.
The Sub-Committee appointed to make Ar-

have given notice that a considerable proportion
ofall samples and specimens which are designed
to be offered, shall be forwarded, so as to reach
\Vashington very soon after the 5th of May.
The Committee desire ample samples,
instead of heavy and ciimbrous pact. ages

goods—the same to be carefully put up, and
marked or labeled with the natncs and
residence of owners, with their current
value. Thus frotriflve to ten ordinary sized

every description of printed goods; Woolens,
of every character and grade, as well as all
similarly at-ranged—and then, for better
security, and for the convenience of trans-
portation, placed in largcihpackages-—it
being regarded a primary object, to present
the greatest variety of products.
All packages should be marked “.N'zztional
