7 hs TH EH NEW YORK IN A FERM THE SPLIT IN THE WHIG PARTY. ADDRESS OF THE NATIONAL WHIGS, Opinions of the Zwo State Organs. BY MORSK’S MAGNETIC TELEGRAPH. Brnacuer, Sept. $0, 1860, The undersigned, delegaies to e whig convention held at Syracuse on the 26th and 27th days of September instant, for the purpose of nominating a Governor and other Btate officers, having been compelled to withdraw trom the convention, and withhold their approba ion f its procesdings, have ‘wemed it proper to submit to your comsideration, a ststement of the reasons that ‘have impelled them tothis course. It was evident, upom the assembling of the convention, that it was divided into two parties, one of which was composed @f those who embraced the peculiar principles, and re- garded with extraordiuary favor the political course of Mr. Wm. H, Sewerd. one of the Senators from the State of New York, in the @ongress of the United States, while the opposite party represented the opinion of that clars which, while recognising the individual referred to, as a whig, holding an yet regard his course upen questions more important than amy tbat divide the political parties of the coun- try with eentiments the reverse of approbation. It iro soom appeared that a majority of the members ‘were of the former class Betweem persons thus differing, it is obvious there ‘was but one basis of union; neither party could rea- sonably expect to degrade the other, by requiring it to ‘bandon its principles on questions where ditferences existed; but both might unite without forfeiture of ‘self respect upon such principles as were held in eommon. It was accordingly upon tyis basis that the ‘undersigned constantly labored to preserve and secure ‘the union of the whig party of this State. Immediately after the permanont organization of ‘the comventicn, # committee of eight was appointed ‘to prepare resolutions for its adoption. Four of the members of this sommitive were appointed from the minority, and the other feur were selected by the ma- Jority, a ominated by the President at their request. This committee, afteir = long session, dn which matters xpon which difference of opinion existed. were frankly and fully discussed, agreed upon a ret of reeciytions, in wbich ali the members of the Sane, with » single exception, fully concurred. ‘The dissenting member, who was of the majority party, was willing to give his assent, if an addition should be made tos single resolution, which addition “his three colleagues of the came party, believed to be leit doubefa , When the com- mittee adjourned, wh yr he would not, before the re- ‘mort wes made, make his assent unconditionally, so a at such report might be unanimo' wie ‘en resolutions thus agreed upon were pub- im thé Geresd last Saturday} When these resolutions were reported to the c: ived with great and very ge- Iseptions, satisfaction however, before a maliga lofiuence, nach from the bers of the con- ané which was oon. at wor! ed distract be ceri oe ae ed divide and defest tho whig party, began to ex! und sab an of cortam individaals. ction were manifested, and a ™ carried te lay the resolutions om ‘the table for the purpoce of proceeding to the somi- sation of candidates. ‘Tais motion, however, was stated and carried, not ae ® test question on the resolutions, but as hayi: reference only to the order of business; and when i sented to the minority that this they could not assent or submit. tured to eed to the nomination of a candidate.

We are ull the stronger for having passed through thet ordeal. Parties, like ores, must be purified by tire. The Whig State Convention, though severely tried, stood by whig pringiples.

We labored for ‘harmony. For harmony we were prepared te concede much —did, indeed, concede too mueh. But all was, by the wisdom, tirmoess, and fidelity of the con tion, overruled. Instead of concessions which would have left us, like eur oppovents, without iinciples, we now go to the polis abundantly for- hed. The whig party is better prepared for the ap proaching coutliet, and stronger by many thou- id votes, than we should have been avithout the glorious plattorm which the convention has given us. Nobly has that convention done ite duty.

There has been for some time past, a disposition manifested in certain quar- ters, to find fault with and embarrass the present w Re reget gesey of the general government, the instances of which it is not now necessary te enumerate, and we foresaw and gave early warn- ing of the difficulties and dangers which the State Convention would have to encouater. We gave early notice that any attempt to convert the whig party into a sectional or abolition party, or revive din such case ae of the vexed and distracting questions ar | whic! had been so happily settled, would be re- sisted to the last extremity. Upon those subjects it wes well known that a radical difference of opinion has existed among whige for s¢me time and attempt in a con ion, to force the joctrines of one portion of them upon the other, could not but prove disastrous. These were matters about which there must be toleration and for , or there could be no harmony—un- fortunately that toleration and ferbearance on one side did not exist. A committee of sight was ap- vention, to draft and report resolutions. The very able and impartial president appointed, for that eight of the ablest and most iafluential members—fovur of each sort. They met, and seven of them agreed unsnimously upon a set of laim of | resolutions, not satisfactory to the national whigs and friends of the administration, nor fully ex- preseing their views, but which they were willing and consented to adopt in a spirit of concessioa and compromise; the eighth member of the com- mittee concurred in all the resolutions but one, and objected to only in a siogle particular. Those resolutions were reported to the conven- tion, no objection being made by any member of the committee that t report Was premature, or anything of the kind, and as they were read, were received with unbounded applause, and thé one with which Mr. Dickinson was not quite satis- fied, with more applause than any other; and had the vote been immediately taken on them, it was evident they would have been carried by an over- whelming majority. They were such es ought to have been sausfactory to ail reasonable men, and as We trust the great body of whigs will approve. The question unfortunately, was not permitted to be taken then; an adjourament was had. hat appliances were used between that time and the reaseembling of the convention, we will fo! stop to reiterate; suffice it to say that a majority of the delegates came in the next day a chaaged and al- tered set of men. Their owa honest convictions had been done away with by some process, and all their opinions om Be They hed now become fapatical c lerant, and prejudice had a the throne of reason. They were no longer agents, but the tools of outside wire-pullers, sone of whom avowed the purpose to separate one por- tion of the party from other.

Willing to leave no effort at conciliation untned, Mr. Bosh made some Sogsens and appro- priate remarks, and moved that the substitute be Teferred to the committee of right on resolutions, and Mr, Duer moved that eight more be added to that committee, which motions were adopted.
