.5-tion of this State met at Albany on Monday
Corres,-pondcnceqf the Gazette.
Ni-:w Yenrr, June 5,1846.
Di-:.An Sm :—My Yankee curiosity prompted
me this morning to take a look at the far famed
Senate ofthis State, now sit.ting as a Judicial
body in the Cit.y Hall. I had heard so much of
the ferocity of its members, and of their thirst,-
for the political destruction of each other, that I I‘
had a desire to see what manner ofpersons they ;
were in outward appearance. This Senate, you I,
know was called by some evil disposed persons,
last winter, a “ineiiagcire,” and the discussions,
between the Senators “Bear fights.
saw nothing this morning that looked Bearish,
or beast lilm, without it was, that a few of the
IIon. members sat with their feet higher than‘
their heads. But it is afrcc country, and they
are democrats (most of them,) and of course they ,
have a right to sit in any position that suits them. ,
Then again, some ofthein were continually in- l
terrupting consul during the argument——not
very pleasant it. is t.rue for a nervous younglaw- g
yer—but perfectly justifiable, as it was done for ,
3'10 purpose of elicting truth. And no one can‘
question their right to read newspapers and con- l
verse with each other during the discussion of L
abtruse points of law, for they were lawyers by
nature. I mean to say their knowledge of law
never was gained by stvdy. But after all I do
not believe they are as great rascals as they rep-
resented themselves to be last winter. If they
are rascals they are certainly very smooth faced,
decorous rascals. Bear in mind that I do not
apply these remarks to all of the Senators.-
Some of them rank high as lawyers and are
men of undoubted political integrity.
The Convention for amending the Constitu-
last, and organized by electing John Tracy,
President. As I have before remarked it is a
very able body, being composed of men ol expe-
rience and high standing. It isjust a quarter of
a century since a Convention met for a. similar
purpose. That was the ablcst political body that
ever assembled in the State of New York. No!
one can doubt this who recalls the names of ‘
Chancellor Kent, Judge Spencer, Martin Van-
Buren, Gov. Tompkins, Gen. Root, Col. Young,
Gen. Van Reiissale1'——but I cannot enumerate
the great men who were members of that Con-
vention. Many of them are now liviiig—the
survivors of a great race sf Statesinen fast pass-
ing away. But two of their number have been
elected to the present Convention, viz Gov.
Tallmadge and Judge Nelson. Judge Nelson
was one of the youngest members of the Con-
vention of 1821, and since that time has been al-
most constantly in Judicial life, first as Circuit
Judge, then as Associate, and afterwards as Chief
Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court. Gov.
Talmadgc for the last twenty years has not ta-
ken an active part in politics, but has been known
for his active exertions for the advancement of
manufacturers and agriculture. He has “fallen
into the scar and yellow leaf” but his great expe-
rience and acknowledged talents will give to his
opinions considerable weight in the Convention.
Though living in the city of N cw York he
was elected by his old friends in Dutcliess Co.
whom he had often represented in Congress
and inthe State Legislature!
The leading member from the city of New
York is undoubtedly Charles O’Conncr. He is
an Irishman as his name indicates, and a man of
fearless indepciidencef He ranks ‘high as a
lawyer, possesses remarkable subtlety and acute-
nesss of mind—-an acuteness which perhaps dc- 1'
tracts from his merit as a jury lawyer, but adini-
rably fits him for success in that. branch of law
called “special pleading” in which he is une-
quallcd———and withal is an efficient and vigorous ,
speaker, though his speeches are a little tool
much tincturcd with bitterness and sarcasm. But
I am running away from the city of N cw York
and to itI will return.
The news-boy have been crying out “extras”
very lustily this afternoon,which contain as I sup-
pose later intelligence from the seat of war.—
But I am so heartily sick of this Texas iniquity
and the human butchery which has resulted
therefrom, that I do not desire to read any fur-
ther accounts of our glorious victories. Glorious
victories indeed! \Ve shoot down men in cold
blood for resisting an unjust invasion of their
territory, and call the murder a glorious victory_
Phese victories will form a dark page in Ameri-
can History. Fortunate would it be for our na-
tional reputation if every leaf in that history con-
taining mention of Texas annexation, could be
blotted out and destroyed for ever. But I sup-
pose wc must read the news whether it be good
or bad. Your brother editors in this city, I sup-
pose, would not object on the score of profit to
have any number of Mexican wars and Texas
0
y
annexations.
I see that the Oregon qustion has been revived
in the Senate. Col. Benton poured a tremen-
dous broadside upon the 54 40 men. Gen. Cass
attempted to rally them and again bring them up
to the charge, but they are rather afraid of “Old
Bullion.” They are but a small band and have
an indifferent leader. By the by it has been sug-
gested by some that if Gen. Cass would hereaf-
ter omit the C in his surname he would give a
very accurate description of his character. The
statement of Mr. Vlfebster that the question
would soon be closed has removed all fear of
hostilities witk England. H e spoke like one
having authority, and would not have hazarded
the remark without there was some foundation
for its truth. We have had three glorious days
-——bright, warm sunshine, and beautiful moon-
light nights. One cannot be angry when every
thing is bright and joyous around him. And if
he should contrive to make himself unhappy
whilst brought in collision with the knavory and
low cunning of the mammon worshippers in this
‘Ylclwd CW)’. all unpleasant thoughts would be
dissipated by the cool breezes and serene beauty
of these moon light nights. Look out for a large
number of marriages a short time hence. Cupid

when the Texas iniquity could have been pro-i

of Mr. Clay'a letters in 18-l-at-—1-’lubur7zJour.
“Under these circumstances, if the Gov-,
ernment of the United States were to ac-
quire Texas, it would acquire along with
it all the incumbrances wliicli Texas is
under, and among them the actual or
suspended war between Mexico and Tcxas.,
Of that consequence there cannot be a‘
doubt. /l7zmie:rati'on and War wit/i Mexico

am not willing to involve this country in
a foreign war for the object of acquiring
Texas. ”“ "“ ”“ Iregard all wars as great
calamities, to be avoided, if possible, and,
honorable peace as the wisest and truest
policy of this country.”

Oregon controversy would be settled and a per-

BRAGGARTS.
The greatest boastcrs are always the
greatest cowards——and those who c'aiin
the most patriotism are generally found to
possess the least of it. The locos are
alwys using great swelling words about
war, and they are proportionably lacking
inpluc/c and patriotism. Of course they
were not old enough to have any thing to
do with the Revolutionary battles: but
their leader in the Congressional House
of Representatives, said, that if he had
lived in those days, he “.~:/zould have been a
tory.” No doubt of it—iind so probably
would most of his party. During the last
war, the most successful battles were
fought by the \Vhigs—and so the fact has
been thus far, and doubtless will continue
to be in the Mexican war.
There was a time when the pluck of lo-
co focoisni, scperatcd from \Vliiggcry, was
tested, and it was found to be worthless
stuff, of precisely the character of that
which animated Falstaff and his ragged
regiment at the battle of shrewsbury. We
mean the memorable day when the Hero
of Chepatcliet
“\Vavcd his glittering blade on high,
Firmly resolved to do or die,”
and concluded on the first alternative and
therefore threw away his sword, instead of
the scal/liarrl, and commenced doing a swift
race with his men, for a “lodge in some
vast wilderness,” where Ringgold’s artille-
ry could not reach him. This is the only
genuine loco foco battle that has ever been
fought in this country. Their reserve
guards, the Empire Club, did not come
into action. They preferred to make war-
like display in New York. Had they gone
to Chepatchet, there would have been an
opportunity of testing the mettle of the
very chivalry of loco focoism. But it is
highly probable that they were faithfully
represented by General Don and his
heroes. The country would make a sorry
figure in a war with any respectable power
without Whig soldiers and officers. We
do not mean to say that all our opponents
are mere vaporing braggarts, but alas, we
believe that too many of them are of that
stainp.——Palladz'am.
Governor Toucey, of Connecticut, has
been partieulurl_v unfortunate in the com-
mencement of his gubernatorial career.
In his message he denounces the license
law as unconstitutional and an infringement
upon the rights of trade. The Governor
has also denouced the interference of cin-
plovers in the politics of their workmen,
an recommended a law to prohibit the
exercise of any such influence. The
Whigs proposed a resolution calling upon
the Governor for any information which
had come to his knowledge concerning
such interference, andialthougli the charge
had been widely circulated in the locofoco
papers and by the locofoco orators, the
party rotcd down the 1'nqui'ry ! It is said
that had’ the resolution passed, the Gov-
ernor might have found one example
without going out of his own manufactur-
ing establishment, but. as no other case
could be found, it was not thought by his
friends prudent to push the investigation.
Providence Journal.
The exultations over the peaceful an-
nexation of Texas, are shown to have been
somewhat premature. Thinking the coun-
try had escaped from the consequences of
a measure which sagacious statesmen of
both parties assured them would involve
the nation in war, they proclaimed the
peaceful result of the iniquitous measure,
action of government in securing peace.-
One, from a meeting in New York, and
published in the Albany papers, was as
follows: _
“Resolved, That the energetic measures and
timely precautions of the Government, IN vnsw
or THE ANNEXATION or Texas. Q‘ HAVE
SAVED THE COUNTEY FROM THE
GREAT EVILS OF WAR gg-3 and that
the gratitude of all good citizens is therefore due
to those whosewise councils and prompt acts,
have brought about this result, at once glorious
honorable. and peaceful.”

CODISTOCK & IIALL
TAKE pleasure in announcing to their very
numerous patrons, and the public generally
that they havejust received a select assortment of
Staple and Fancy Dry Good,
for Gentlemen and Ladies’ \Vcar, adapted to the
Spring and S1Irm.IIl.€7' Fashions Q/' 18-16.
\Ve feel it altogether unnecessary to eiiuinerato
articles, but simply say, that the reputation t/iis
cslablis.’zment has honestly earned, not only by
selling cheap, but in keeping a large (mil well
sclcclezl sloclc, shall befully sustained.
\Ve have availed ourselves largely of the re-
cent rcduction of prices in New York, conse-
quent upon the very severe pressurc in the mo-
ney market, aiid our stock never was more com-
plete in every particular; and as the greater
part of the goods of most of our merchants were
probably bought some three weeks ago, at the
spring prices, we are safe in sa._i/ing that ice are
well _72rcpared to OFFER BARGAINS in all
kinds of Goods to Cash Purchasers.
Those who favor us with an early call, will
have the satisfaction of selecting from an assort-
ment unrivaled in extent and variety, and at pri-
ces which we pledge ourselves shall prove sat-
isfactory to the closest Cash Buyers.
“re would especially invite an inspection ofour
stock of MILLINERY GOODS, as it is quite
large, and a branch of the trade to which we
pay particular attention.
