Clayten, and thereby cause the election of a de- mocratic United States Senator; when Masea- chusetts elects a Cemocratic Governor, and a free soil United States Senator, and refuses to sustain Daniel Webster, where, oh where, we ask, is the | great whig party to look forsuccor? Will they fall back on New York, and entrust their political fortunes to the slippery union of the free soil and silver gray whigs. ‘The disjointed and dilapidated condition of the demooratic party, and the present possession of power, political and financial, may jndeed prolong the existence of the whig party in this State, for a short period; but the fate which at- tends them in other States must even here overtake them, as soon ag the democrats become hungry enough for office and power to unite their forces. In the view we have taken of the political aspect of affairs, in the foregoing remarks, we heve spoken of the two great political partics as they have heretofore existed in the United States.

It will be observed that George S. Boutwell, the present coalition Governor, has been re-nominated after a very ex- citing session. Governor Hunt has offered a reward of five hun dred dollars for the arrest of the persons who were guilty of the ill treatment of Mr. Shaw, in the anti-rent district, an account of which we have pub- ton Union expect to be elected, by the next Con- gress, printers to that body, and thereby te realize some thousands of dollars. But what care the great body of the people whether it shall be demo. | cratic or whig printers to Congress, who are to | make sudden fortunes, build splendid houses, drive | elegant equipages, or give sumptuous dinners, and champagne and oyster suppers to members of Con- gress, and other frequenters of the Capitol dering | the session ? The whigs, to be sure, would be glad | to enact a more stringent protective tariff, and establish a system of internal improvements, parti- cularly of rivers and harbors, but being in the minority in Congress, they will be powerless, and the responsibilities of legislation must rest on the democratic majority, who are not expected to ad- vance the favorite measures of the whigs. We are at a legs, therefore, to conjecture what party mea- sure can be brought forward by the democrats to | encounter the risk of the Presidential veto; and it | would not be strange, if, at the next session, we should witness the asomaly of a business Con- Tess. . But are the democrats sure that they can preserve fizbed in our columns. It would seem that the | or establish an union of the discordant materials of anti-renters are becoming as reckless as ever.

There is too much socialism in this for the Present generation. ‘The Present Condition of Political Parties in the United States, and their Coming Dis- solution. The statements we have published of the recent @lections, and the political divisions of members of Congress elect, show that the democrati: party, so ealled, if we use old party names, is largely in the ascendency in both house: several States. The condition of the whig party, con- sidering the far: that they bold the reins of power in the execative department of the national govern- ment, is most extraordinary, and worthy of particular notice. Of the thirty-one governors of States, the democrats have elected twenty-six, and will pro- bably, in October next, add Pennsylvania to the list, leaving the whigs the four governors of New York, Vermont, Florida and Tennessee. In the Legislatures of twenty-one States last electod, the Gemocrate had decided majorities, the whigs retain- ing only the Legislatures of the six States of New York, Vermont, Maryiand, K ky, Tennessee, ‘and California, while the rs held the Balance of power in the Legi necticut, Massachusetts, acd Onio, aad a coalition of anti- Benton democrats and whigs was required in M Souri to turn Colorel ton out of the United States Senate, and elect a whig Senator ia his brief statement shows th ancholy con mn to which the great whig party of the Union Ss reduced. 1: foreibly reminds us of what was paid of ld federal party, in the year 1411.

The Democratic State Convention, to-morrow, promises to be an exciting episode in the history of that party. By means of the Herald's Boston ccrrespondence, your readers have been fully acquainted with the labyrinth of Massachusetts yolities, and it is only necessary for your reporter to give the facts. Tarrived here at four o’clock, P. M., and found the city already thickly sprinkled with delegates. Not a room was to be had, and your reporter sleeps to-night upon « bearth-rug. As the bunkers arrived, their countenances wore a sort of “ I-came-I-saw-I-overcame” look, while the coa- litionists were no less triumphant. The hunkers were the better tacticians, but the coalitionists made up in entbusissm what they lacked in generalship, Caucuses were s00n arranged. The hunkers, headed by Benjamin F. Hallett, held a meeting at the room of Charles G. Greene, editor of the Boston Post. Here a funny scene occurred, Resolutions strong in favor of the Fugitive Slave law, and denying the right of Copgress to interfere on the slave question with regard to new States, were submitted by B. F. Hallett, Esq., and supperted by every member of the convention, with the exception of Gen, Caleb Cushing, who came out flat- resolutions, ‘and strong in favor of codlescing with the free soilers, Hallett demanded an explanation, and a great deal of,con- fusion ensued, many voices crying “question.” Finally, Mr. C. G, Greene said that he claimed the right, as land- lord of the room to speak, and he moved the meeting he dis- solved, which motion was carried. It was stated at this caucus that the coalitionists would pass any resolutions that the Hunkers might offer, with the exception of reso- lutions probibiting county conventions from arranging coalitions with the free soilers, They cared not how strong Compromise resolutions might be offered, ‘The coalitionists hel a caucus at the Oity Hall on this evening. Mr. Williams, a young lawyer of Worcester, was called to the chair, and Thomas Gill, a Boston dele- gate, chosen Secretary. Gill was Qnonest. The proceed- | ings were opened with a fiery address from Lewis Josselyn, editor of the Lynn Bay State, and Clerk of the last House of Representatives, He, went in for the coalition, and dwelt strongly upon the benefits likely to arise from it. A the conclusion of his address, loud calls were made for national convention meets next year. short, but fiery and wi year, eloquent. Speeches by Messrs.
