Its Dangers---Awful Power of the Abolitionists---Fright of the Whigs----Plucking up Courage. (From the New York Tribune, by Horace Greeley.) Wuar asour New Yorx?—Within the last week, we have answered till we are weary of it the letters of distant friends, inquiring ‘* How is it in New, York? The Locos seem in wonderful ents since the nomination of Wright, and say they shall sweep all before them.” ‘* Do write me privately your honest opinion,” S&c. Those which ‘avor us with this last touch of delicate flattery we lay under the table. Our private opinions do not differ in honesty from our public ones; and if one Wi not be trusted, the other certainly cannot be. jut these letters indicate a very general anxiety abroad on the subject of the vote of New York, and some little deference to our own opinioa.— We shail therefore give it, for the benefit of our readers. We will state the tacts on which it is based. A ‘ Gen. Harrison received the Electoral Vote ot New York in 1840 by a Romnlar majority of 13,290 in some 240,000 votes. ow we do know of hun- dreds who voted for Van Buren then who will vote for Mr. Clay now; we know of no ¢ es the other way of at all equal amount. We have lost slightly in two or three counties—say Fulton, Jef- ferson, St. Lawrence, and Clinton, (where we were helped by the ‘‘Patriot” effervescence in’40;) but we have assuredly gainedin this city, in Kings, Dutchess, and Oneida. We are greatly deceive if Rockland, Westchester, Steuben and Livingston do not show a better result for the Whigs than that ot 1840; while we know no county save those we have mentioned in which there has been any per- ceptible loss to our side. The intermediate elec- tions have gone against us, simply because the vote of the State has not nearly been called out since 1840, The oppesite party never before nor since polledso many votes as then. i The only chance, then, of our losing the State is by the increase of the Third Party or Abolition vote. But for this, Mr. Clay would have, as we es timated months ago, tully 20,000 majority in the State. This was 2,908 in 1840, 7,268 in 1812, and 15,450 in 1843. Should it increase in like ratio this year, and muinly be drawn, as heretofore, from the whig ranks, tt might endanger the triumph of the whigs. But, in the first place, we are sure it can- not so inerease; and in the next place we know it this year draws its recruits in good part from the ranks of our opponents. This is no guess-work. The Vermont Election Returns demonstrate it. The movements in different parts of this State es- tablish it. {n Chautauque Co., Judge E. T. Foote, always before one of the strongest Va: Buren men in this section, is now actively canvassing for the Birney ticket. A well informed Loco Foco neigh- bor assures us that his efforts will tell. Soin Ro- chester, where Messrs. J. D. Husbands, Geo. W. Pratt, and a number who have hitherto been ardent and most efficient Van Buren men, are now as ac- tive for Birney. In Madison, the open secession trom the Van Buren ranks to Birney of men elways and still the bitterest adversaries of the Whigs, is headed by a Member of our last Assem- bly, followed by several others who have filled re- eponsible stations in the gift of that party. In short, the ‘ ey, party” organization in the State, which has always before borne wholly against the Whigs, and would have done this time if Mr. Van Buren had been re-nominated, will this year take votes from our opponents as well as from us—to what extent we cannot say, but at any rate consi- derably. if we had their ‘bexas load to carry, we should get no votes at all. 4 é At one time, we believed most of those Aboli- tioniste, who are whigsin natioral police, would vote with us this time to prevent the annexation of ‘Texas, giving Mr. Clay very large majority, At present, itseems as though the shametul perver- sious and garbling of Mr. Clay’s Alabama letter, woud repel a good part of them from doing so The ‘* Liberty party” press and organization are mainly in the hands of bitter, deadly enemies of the whigs, and especially of Mr. Clay, who mean to defeat us if they can. Many of them will stealthily vote the Polk ticket if they can do it in no other way. But there are a great many who vote abolition solely because they detest and abhor slavery, and they ere stronsly averse, on every ground, to the annexation of Texae to this coun- try so long as Mexico shall be at war with, or slavery exist (therein. These will vote with us still, if they can be made to see and understand the truth that the election of Polk ensures the suc- cess of annexation, while the triumph of the whigs in the election of Ms. Clay will as surely prevent annexation so long as Mexicw shall persist in claim- ing that Territory, or a respectable portion of our own States object to the union. We believe they will yet be made to see this, in spite of the despe- rate ‘efforts of the third party leaders, and that those who heartily ener the ascendency of the whigs to that of the locofocos, on Texas aud other rounds, will yet vote with us. If they do, Mr Slay will have a large majority. * * * * * * such is our deliberate conviction. We may be mis. tekea, as we aud others have been ; but our sources of intormation are many aod various, and we are sus ain- edly the judgment of discreet, well-informed m# the fever) Counties. in this Ci y we know there can be no majority for Yolk unies: cbtainsd by fraudueat and dovble voting, and that the Whigs are determined to prevent, at whatever cost. We are quite aware thet the aspect of the canvass hare will be bright i or darkened Yo the result of tl blo looking with sush snxivus interest. Shouli Pennsylvania deciare tor the play isover.

That they have so contributed is no more doubtful or disputable than the fact of their existence-— It is based on no mere inference that they would liketo see our Tariff broken down—which eve knows— but on the unguarded statesment of British journals months 88, when their meetings were held, their money subscribed, and the amount and destination simply stated as matters of ordinary news. Now, when the Albany ‘Argus attempts to countervail this by inferring that the British manufacturers entertain great aversion to our an- nexing Texas, our Repudiation, &c., it babbles idly. We owe State Debts in England, but not to the Menufacturers; the British might very well object to our taking Texas, but the Manufacturers would not. With a twenty Per cent Tariff here, T'exas would A) Mat as many British goods if annexed to us as if in dent; five times as many as if a Mexican province. Manufacturers look to markets, not to dominion. ‘That British money is now liberally Ro mage here in aid of the locofoco cause, we cannot d Woe don't complainfof those who contribute it; they are looking to their own ends.

That testimo- ny was nearly all given by Free Traders, and was strong- ly on that side; butin tho Herald edition it was grossly arbled, and that part of it which favored protection was Mout! This ina public document was grossly unfair. Through this campaign, the Herald is notoriously, di rectly confessedly, under the pay and management of the Polk Free Traders. They make it say just what they lease—one day that Clay’s chance is pretty good, ro that the next they may announce that somet! new has turned up which almost ensures the success of Polk! It is thus that, by bold lying, Mr. Clay is said in the Herald, to beas much for Annexation as Polk! and pledged to bring itabout, in the face of Mr. Clay’s ewn repeated, uniform declarations that he can never consent to the An- nexation 60 long as Mexico resists itor any Lf pee ofour own States object to it. If any adversary of Annexation can arki more than this, he must be unreasonable, if any man says Clay is as favorable to the measure as Polk, he must be a deliberate deceiver. Every Southern journal of whatever party, recognizes and comments on the rad- eb difference between the position of Clay and that of And yet the last use to which the Herald has been put by ite purohaers is that of uttering a lot of silly twaddle about a breach in the whig ranks on Texas, caused or indicated by Mr. Webster's late noble speech at Boston! While Mr. Webster in his speeches coufined himself to a discussion of principles, the Herald & Co. exolaimed, «See the schiam inthe Whig ranks! Mr. Webster never mentions Mr. Ca But when at length Mr. Webster takes up the posit of Mr, Clay, discusses it, declares Sg abpoal impressively exhorts every antiTexas man to do the same, the Her again cries out, “A split amon the whigs! Mr. Webater is out Cees Clay on Tex: If the Herald had not suppressed the speech of Mr. Web- ster, this falsehood would have been too gross even for ite habitual recklessness. Why was not its “unrivalled corps” of repasters at Boston’? Why did not the Herald give promptly the speech 1t se shamefully perverts ? We have said that the game played by the managers of the Herald is so paipably dishonest that the money given for its aid to the anti-Tariff and Texas cause is grossly squandered. And yet there iv u way in which it is made to aubserve as second-hand the Polk cause. Other villains are peed to assert where its cheracter is unknown that the Herald is an impartial, and sometimes even a mala poner | Thus the Kochester Daily Advertiser has the shameleasness to say— : “ The New York Herald, the editor of which isa whig, ‘Mr. Clay’s chances are diminishing every day.’ ‘the locofeeos will carry the greater portion of the non-slaveholding States by overwheiming majoritice.’ ‘There is in reality no kind of doubt of the truth of this statement ; but it is something fora whig to concede it ; the old coon may as well come down before we fire ” Now there is not a Whig connecied with the editor- ship of the Herald and within our knowledge never ba: been.

When we left here immediately preceding the nomination of Messis. Clay and Frelinghuysen by the Baltimore Conven- tion, we were satisfied that Siabtess States were safe beyond all contingency for the Whig cause; and that Maine, New Hampshire, Illinois and Mie- souriat the North, and South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas at the South, were the only doubtful States. Of course, we were much astonished that such a nonentity as James K. Polk —a man whom we know to be inferior in intellect and acquirements to any personever named for the Chief Magistraey, and who would not be esteem- ed a second rate country lawyer at any bar in this State—should have lessened our prospects of suc- cess; and our first business was to enter into acri- tical examination of the actual state of the pending canvass for the Presidency, Several months absence from the country, had temporarily separated us from the excitement of the contest; we had no bets pending upon the re- sult; and as is well known to our readers, when nearly three Meats ago we run up the Clay Banner, and sent forth the cry of “Justice to Harry of the West” amid the jibes fand jeers of the prees of beth partiese—we epee that our course was free from all selfish feelings, and that if elected, there was no office in his gift we would either ask for or accept; all these circumstances combined, were calculated to enable us to look into the exist- ing state of parties, and their prospects of success, with more than Ordinary disinterestednesa; and to arrive at a conclusion unbiassed by either our feel- ings or our wishes. We brovght to the enquiry, less of political prejudice than most persons could at this late period in the canvass; and above all, perceiving our friends alarmed and our opponents sanguine, we very naturally aimed to arrive at 4 conclusion of our own, irrespective of the opinions of others, on a question of such vital importance to the welfere of the country and every grea! interest in it. hout prejudice therefore, anc really anxious to errive ut the truth, we en- tered into an investigat:on of the actual state o1 parties Wilds :uere eare and attention than we had ever before best. wed upon the subject, becauve from our absence and other circumstances, we were better qualified for an impartial investigation than at any previous period of our political lite. We examined the whig vote of 1840, and the votes of our opponents since that period; and we discov- ered that in no State in the Union with the excep- tion of Muine,have they polled a vete equal to that of the Whigs, which so thorougiily routed them when in pos-ession of the whole power and patten age of the Government, with a united and harmo- nious party, and without any questions such as ‘Texas and the Tariff to distract them. We per- ceived, that easy as.it was to beat Mr. Van Buren, it was far easier to distance the mere apology fer a Presidential Candidate in the person of James K. Polk. It became perfectly manifest that in every State of the Union, with the single exception of South Carolina, the Tanff had grown in strength and popularity with the people; and that although Mr.Van Buren had pursued a course to deceive and mislead a portion of the North on this subject, Mr Polk’s views and principles as avowed in his pub- lic addresses and demonstrated by his votes in Con- gress were so well known, that this question alone was sufficient to insure hisdefeat. We discovered that his incapacity for the station of chief magistrate isfelt and admitted by the best men of the locofoco party ; and that this tact, connected with the thrust- ing aside of Mr. Van Buren and the mode and man- ner of his nomination, have caused hundreds of those who have heretofore voted the locotoco ticket, publicly to proclaim their disgust with the proceedings of the Baltimore Convention,and their determination not to be dragooned iato the support of itsnominee. Then, there stood the Texas ques- tion, On this subjecta majority of the locofoco party think with us, that Lexas was oure and should be so again, when it can be accomplished with honor and without gross injustice to Mexico; but that to seize upon it without the assent of Mex- ico, would be downright robbery, certain to be followed by a war which the whole civilized world would denounce as unjust, and which might demand European interference. The party which nominated Pelk,have not hesitated to proclaim their intention if suecessful, to seize upon Texas and Oregon ; and we all know that such a proce- dure would inevitably involve us in a war with Mexico and England; and while a La portion of the reflecting men of that party, deprecate the annexatfon of Texas as a measure calculated to extend the institution of slavery, a still larger number, look upon a war with Mexico and Great Britain ax the greatest curse which @ mal-administration of the government could bring upon the country. Even in the South, where the people gene- rally are in favor of the annexation of Texas when it can be done with honor, they repudiate the idea of forcibly en- larging our territory either at the South or West; and, consequently, Mr. Polk der:ves no strength from the Tex: as and Oregon questions in that section of the country. In thus looking about for the cause of exultation by our opponents und @ corresponding depression among our friends, we critically examined what changes had taken place during the past four months and whether they were for or ag 1 to this, wo. could not possibly be mistaken. Of the changes known to the public, nineteen. fron the locofoco to the whig ; based upon the principles of the respective partic appear to be rapidly developing themselves in every tion of thecountry. In shert, we gradually but certain- ly arrived at the inevitable conclusion, that stron; our cause inthe month of April last, with the pi nomination of Mr. Yan Buren at timore—and ogainst him we were confident of eighteen States—the nomin tion of Jai man without ® solit ry quali tion for the off sed te the people upon all the great questions of olicy now before them, and the randson of a vileold Tory of the Revolution, whose in- idelity is countenanced and approved by his descendants, and perpetuated upon his tombstone, has, most assuredly, strengthened that cause and rendered its triumph in No: vember next, a moral certainty. With this well grounded conviction of the actual posi- tion of the contest, and the certainty of success in store for us if we all do our dnt; e have labored zealous! to inspire our friends with the: same well grounded con: dence that we pom ‘We would have them utterly disregard the crowings and boastings of our epponents; and to enable them to do this, we would urge upon them not to pin their faith upon any man’s opinions. The po- litician who does not examine for himself into all the facta of the case, and reasen upon those facts and base his faith upon such Dangers is liable to be blown about by every putf of public opinion that is manufactured to ope- rate upon him, and can never be relied upon in the hour of trial. Cowed and desponding when he should be bold and confident, he too frequently arrives at the conciusion that his efforts cannot aveil, abandons the contest, negleets the first great duty of hihed f citizen—the exercise of the elective franchise—and thos brings pon himself, bis party, and the country, thet very deteat and those terrible disasters, which hiv went of self-reliance induced him to meg tte The only way to avoid this, is for every man of intelligence—every man worthy of poesersing the right of suffrage—te exam ine for bimaelf the actual state of the political horizon ; having arrived at a correct conclusion, which it t* ier to do now than on any previous ocension, to rely upon his own Jndgment instead of the judgment or the writings of others, Thi, we are py to Fy, our triends in this city are now doing ; end in consequence, the gloom and apprehension which existed two werls since, haa gradually been dispelled ly the light of truth Our opponents no longer wear the hold front they did; and finda their boasting ty where met with cenfi: denco, and bets (their own eat) any amount offered = -- = = ———— upon the result, they evidently find that the game, which —— so much, was commenced too soon, and having ex, hope I ‘and unsuccesstul, they have no longer except what is based upon our careles-ness.

We think they do, They have no opi nions of their own ; no means of judging for themsel neither the intellect nor the intelligence necessary to rive at a conclusion—Dbut are mere automatons in hands of their unscrupulous leaders, All who know the lJecofoco party in this city, well aware thet the edueated and intelligent of their rank end file—all who think for themselves—have long since left them, Thos who remain are the mere tools of designing and unprinci- pled leaders who will use them as occasion requires But these leaders know and feel the desperate state of their cause; and their only hope of success is in cowing our friends and keeping them away from the polls by ‘their senseless boasting» and pened confidence. They ac- cordingly ¢ffer Gets when there ure no tekers, and i mediately “back out” when they meet with tho who ere willing thus to test their faith. But if our friends will calmly enter into an investigation of the state of the contest, such as we have made, there need be no apprehension from the boastings and crowivgs of the enemy, Men whose reason has been convinved can not be induced to swerve in their opin: 5 and there fore it is, that we urge upon all a deli into the actual state of the pending canvass. willthen perceive that the enemy will anipste every inch of ground with ns, and in every State of the Union wage such @ war a6 has never yet been witnessed in this country, inthe hope of somewhere catching us off our guard. ‘It he euceeeds in finding any point unpro- tected—any whigs neglecting their duty by abstaining from the pollseot course he triumphs, ond be merits it But if, on the contrary, the whigs in a good cause can be as active and vigilant as our opponents in a bad one—it they love their principles and the institutions of their country, and desire to transmit them unimpaired, to pos- terity—then will they, one and all, here and elsewhere, firmiy resolve to discharge their duty by polling every vote in the country, and thereby, beyond all earthly doubt, secure to our causeand our candidates the most triumphant victory ever recorded in t he political annals ofour country, Exgcrion in Attakaras.—The following is the result of the election in the Senatorial district comprie- a Septembe mmm em—menFily memes Decloneg Mouton.

The writer in the Picayune however, adds that a circuitous route had been taken, which would not bring the army to the borders of Texas till late in the autumn.
