[From the Courier & Enquirer—Wali street, Financial, Anti-Kossuth, Conservative Whig Jour- nal—for Webster. ] Mr. Webster has returned to Washington, after a week of interosurse with our citisens ia every nin life: and we hazard little insaying, thet pS enepin bz oapewa pooale, and ea he bas left those with wi he has come in contact, bas such as his most devoted friends could des’ At no previous visit to our city has Mr. Wi seon and conversed with so many of NO previous occasion has ho come in direot contaet with so many of the laboring and mechanical classes—with those whose genius, tal- ents, apd industry, have made New York the great reial emporium of the New World. And we fecl assured, that all whe have met Mr. Wobster on his recent visit, understard better than heroto- foro, his enlarged views, and his every day practi- cal common senso opinions, upon the great quos- tions of the day. Mr. Webster is not only a great statesman, a great orator, and (Fede ward but ke is emphatically a man of the peoplt—one te whom all tho practical affairs of rural and mecha- nioiife are aa familiar as are the foreign relations ofthe country. fis is one of those gigantic intel- leots which nothing is teo large to grasp; bat which ag instinctively eeizes upon, Sporceietes, and applies minutiw of life to the larger mat- ters dependent upon them, as it grapples with those larger matters theméeelves. Accordingly, Mr. Webster is as pre-eminent as @ p farmer, a8 he is a3 @® statesman; and those who know kim best, are always wost forcibly im- pressed with tho universality and precissnoss of his knowledge in relation to all the affairs of life. On Friday next the people of this city will as semble at Metrepotitan Hall, under the mest nu- merous and iufluential call ever promulgated in the Uniied States; aud wo caunot doubt but the ex- prestion, by that meeting, in favor of Mr. Webster, will wake ® very deep impreseion throughout the Union. It will be @ voiee from New York in bohalf of the great deiender of the constitution, which Will find areeponse in the bosom of every patriot; and which will prompt thousauds who are now neu. tral to feel that it is both possible and right to do justice to him who has eo nobly stood by the eonsti- tution of the Union in the hour of perii. {t will demonstrate tat the whige of this city ara in ear- nest; and that, feeling it is right and proper to move inthe support of the great champion of tho constitution, they feailessly and corti tently appeal to the whigs of the United States, to redeem their pledges wade in times past; and now that Mr. Clay is no longer a candidate for nomination, to unite in bringing forward bim who always stood thoulder to shoulder with Mr. Clay in eapport of whig principles, and that Union of the States upon which it is based. The time has arrived when it becomes the duty of whigs to speak plainly to each other, and +o un- deretand precisely che state of affairs ia relation to | tho prospects of our party at the coming Prosiden- tial election. It may be that the whigs cannot elect their candidate, be he who he may; but it is absclutely certain, that, as regards Mr. Webster, Mr. Fillmore, and General Scott, Mr. Webster is | the only one who can be elected under any oontin- genoy which may arise. Nothing is more absolutely corluin, than ihat Mr. Fillmsre cannot receive the vote of Wao York. Euher of the democratic candi tates would beat lum from seventy to a hwvired thousawt votes; while itis equally certain that New York ean be givento any ovher whig. This is plain Jan- guage, acd not palatable to Mr ¥illmoro and his tnends; but he and they know, beyond all perad- venture, that it is true; and being true,thoy should not object to its being promulgated. We do not protend to justify the hestili:y which exists towards Mr. Pullmore in this State; bat we cannot shasour | eyes to the fact that is does exist, nor will wo boa party to concealing it from the whig party of tho countiy. Then again, the whig party and tho | whig preé#, are elmoat univereally pledged against | the election of any incumbent of the Presidential | ebair; aud there aro sofficient honest and honorable | men (bus éituated, who will be faithfal to their pledge and thereby rendor his defeat absolutely ce tain, even ifho were put in nomination with his | own State protesting against him. | So much for Mr. Fillmore’s chances When the | Whig National Convention assembles, tho South will inform the North, that General Scott cannot carry either of the whig States of Maryland, Keu- tucky, North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia or Leu a; while Me. Webster or Mr. Fillmore could carry allofthem And Mr. Filmore bemg out of the question by reason of the hostility of o13 own State, and the pledges of the whigs of the North against the re election of any incumbent, wo carrot doust but the Southera vote in Convention will be given to Mr. Webster. These sre common sense vievve upon facts oby to every intelbgent whig; and taken in coun with tne tact that Mr. Webster is identiGed wish the Whig party everywhere, and can carry all che whig >tutes both at the North and the South— surcly itis expedient as well as justto Mr. Webster, to the whig party, and to the whele country, to seleo our be esrer in the coming coatest, tke mau who in times past has made that banuer the pride ad misation of every patriot in the » and whoce clovation to the chiet magietracy, Jo Lonor fo the cause ef republicaniam through- veut the civilized world [rom the New York ‘Tribune-—Anti Slavery Socialist, Ned Republican, Mad Republican, Fana tical, Auli Rent, Nocheeter Rapping, Kossuth and Flupkey, Whig Journal—for Scott and Seward. ] Tur Wie G AL ComitrEes on Tugsspay Evenine.—Kerolutions declining an exprossion on the Presidential question were introduced into the Old Men's General Committco, at the Broadway cia! committeo. In general committee of democratic whig young men, Mare 2,1862, the following resoluvions were adupted, | and ordered to be published:— ‘Whertes, the whig party of the United Btates will soon be catied upon, in national convention, to designate the candidates to be by them supported for the offices of Presiaent and Vice President im the eleetion of 1852; 3 and, wh , the maintenance of the time honored principles our party Is above all considerations or preferenses, d, whereas, it is desirable to avoid all un- ecestary collisions of opinion which engender heated | partisan strife, aud tend only to distract and divide the | Party; tkeretore, | Reroclved, By the democratic whig general committee avd the general commiitee of demosratic whig young men, that. a8 the representatives of the whig party of | the city of New York, it iz not our intention, in advance of acund public opinion, to atten pt to dictate a choice to the Whig National Convention. | Resolved, That, as New Yorkers, we ure proud to find | at the bead of the ational government a distinguished | Houte, ard, on boing read, were referred to # spe- | Minced thee got up by te enemien of the’ Hon, was got uy) 01 c 0 hig Seoret: of State, New York city was the last plase in the world for Mr. Danioi Webster to be feasted as he has been these last fow days. Mr. Wadsworth hoped he would be permitted to withdraw his resolution in reference to Mr. Fill- more. The Chair said common courtesy extended this privilege to the mover of a resolution, but a3 afow members of the committee were opposed to its withdrawal and anxious of @ Vote upon it, Mr, Wadsworth’s request was again refused. Mr. Brooks subsequently voted a, st striking out the resolution in reference to M more. Mr. Welsh’s motion to strike outthe Fillmore resolution was then put and lost—22 to 32. The reamble and first resolution wero thea unenimous- 324 adopted. ‘Iho resolution relative to Mr. Fill- moro was thon put separately, and adopted with a few negativ It was then moved to publish the pecalanacs the whig papers. When this motion was made, Mr. Charica Riddle strongly opposed the printing ofthe second regolution. He reviowed the movements that had been made this evoning, and thought the publication would be prejudicial to the interests ot the whig party, unlegs it was properly cot forth. James H. Welsh was also opposed to the publi- cation of the resolutions, unless the various divisions which had been made on their passage were cor rectly stated, and tho ayes and nays pablisned on the motion to stiike out the Fillmore reaolution. ‘Tho motion to pudlish the roselutione was fiua!ly carried by a call of the aycs and nays—2) to 18 Mr. Jackson bad somy resoiu:ions to offer for a reform in reporting the proceedings of the cozm- mittee, %bioh be wes prevented from doing by the car:yirg of a motion te adjourn to Hriday. [from the New York Times, tender to tue Tri- bune-- Anti-Slavery, Anti Austrian, Anti-Napoleon, Silly Korsuth Flurkey, Whig Journal—for Seottand Seward J Mr. Werster’s Nomination.—A meeting is tobe held this evening, for the nomination of Mr. Webster, to the Presidency, ‘*eubjooct to the decision of a Whig National Convention.” It will, undoubtedly, be large and iniluontial. Mr. Webster has always had a strong hold upcnthe admiration and reepect of the people ef this city, and there are thonsands smong them who would regard bis election to the Prosidency as nos less s fortunate occurrence for the country, than & just tribute to his transcendent abilities and his protracted public gervices. From the terms of the call we are glad te infor, that his nomination by those who take part in this meeting, is not to be grounded upon any single act of his lite, or any isolated measure which he may have supported. Thero is s tendenoy, on the part of the warm partisanship of the time, to fasten upon come one point of charecter or of history, and to make that the pivot for all political movements. Great names are thus often forced into the support of small schemes, and the heroes of his- tory are made the mero backers of partizan pur- pores and selfigh schemes. ‘Thus was the birthday of Wasbington desecrated at the capital of the Republic which he founded, by an attempt to enlist bis character and the world’s devotion to his fame in support of the despotisms of Europe, against the eople who share his opinions and would imitate fie example. Instead of honoring the illustrious Wasbington, as the champion of liberty, the author of National Independence, the l’athor of his Coun- try, he was held up to the world simply for his policy of neutrality in the wars of arope. Jn like manner there are many who now seen in Daniel Webster only the defender of the com premise meneures of 1850, and who seek, upon that bi alone, bis elevation to the Presidency. The citi- zens of New York who will tako part in the meeting of Friday night, we may assume, have knowa Mr. Webster too long and too well, and are governed in their action by teo profound a respect for his cha- racter ard his fame, to take so partial a viow of his public life. ‘They will present him to the nation as the representative of all the principles of his public sareer, and on the ground of all his efforts in the public service. They will honor him, not only 88 the friend of the comproumise in 1850, but as the champion cf the Union axd the constitutionin 1932. They will recognize hie cloquent defence of North- ern sentiment, his lofty eulogy on the ordinance of 1787. bis argumentative protest earnestly made and otten ated against the annexation of Texas, and bis reble championship of the liberties ef Greece. They will remember the glowing scorn with which he treeted the menaces of secession with which South Carousa made the Union ring in 1532, and tho lofty indignation with which he tuen met and scouted unjust aspersions and empty bravados. If Mr. Webster wore a now man in public af- fairs. and had but just stepped upon the theatre of pare life, one speech or one measuro might per- aps cover the sphere of his claims. But for a quarterofacentury behas been foremost among the public men of the United States. His voice hasbeen heard, and hia influence felt, upon every question of public policy that has divided the coun- try, during the whole period within the memory of the great mass of its peop! It is his whole histo- le. ry-—his whole career—the principles, declarations, and acts ofall his life—which his true friends will pregent to the recognition and the gratitude of the nation. And while they signalize his constant de- votion te the constitution, they will not forget that he has claimed its equal and exact observance by all sections of the country—that he has pro- claimed the justice and the duty of giving to all new territory the eflictent protection which the ordinanee ef 1757 secured to that vast — north west of the Ohio river--that he declared his opinion and bis desire that fugitives from service, when claimed urder the constitution, should share tho b ‘of jury trial, which that constitution se- bat he proclaimed the sacredness of interna- tional law, and eurright and duty to protest against its violation--that he denounced the violent inter- ference of despotic powers against struggles for freedom in other Stater, and asserted the duty of the United States to take a stand against it; aad that his brightest and most unfading laurels have ton of cur State, whose administration, combining ability, | purity, end pririoti¢m in the ditcharge cf duty, has Merited end received the confidence of the American People, and will rank in histcry side by slide with those of | Waehivgton, Jefferson, and Madiron, A special mecting of the Young Men's Commit- tee was held ina small upper room of the Broad- way House on the game evening, Erastus Brooks Presiding. Fifty-seven ont ofthe 100 members of the committes answered to theirnames at roll call, | many ofike absent membors supposing that no | meeting would bo held before Friday night. The | | Chairman stated that atthe request of five members of the committee he had permitted a spscial mee- ting to be called. ‘Ube members inquirea the ob- | ject of the meeting, when Mr. W okson ans | nounced chat he Led a serics ef rasolu 0 offor, | but gave way to Mr Wadsworth, of the Eighth | ward, Who wee desirous of explaining the ohjcot of | the meeting, whieh he would do by roading a pre- | amblo aud two resulutions on the l’residenualques- tion, and complimentary to the patriotism pervad- ing the Adwinistration of Prevident l'illmore, | which was coinpared to that of Waehington, Joffer- ton, and Madisen. Mr G. W. Thacher said, the | Tesclution referring to Mr. Fil'more was not cou- | sistent with thé preamble and first resolution. What was the use of endorsing Mr. Fillmoro at | this time! Every member of tae committes was familiar with the acts of his administration. Ho | bad no objection to the resolution declining an ox- | ee on the Presidential question, aud consi- ered it quite eppropriate. 4 the resolution in reference to Mr. Villmore likely to load to an embittered dobate, Mr. James H. Welsh moved to strike itout. This mo- | tion was warmly discussed by eevoral members of | the committce, and met with great favor. ! Mr. Nichols Carroll caid that the resolutions had been rubmitted to members of the comimities | of ali shades of opinion, and met with their entire | approval | ir. Charles Riddloeaid ho was opposed to all | outside dictation, and the introduction of resolu: tions endorsing any partiovlar sootion of the whig | party, and saw no necessity for the submission of | the reeolution in reference to Mr. Fillmoro’s offictal | acts. He waa not afraid to express his choise for the Presidenoy. It was Gen. Winteld Soott, tho hero of Chippewa and a huadred battles—the choice of @ majority of the whigs of the city of New York. | Hon. William D). Greene, of the Kighteonth | ward, did not consider the rerolution in reference to Mr Fillmore as endorsing him as a Presidential candidate. lic would not now expross his choice for the Prosidency. The friends of Henry Clay , (lowd cheers at the mention of his name) could not forget the coureo of the friends of Mr. Wobster in 1€44, in defeating Mr. Clay, and he would venture | to sav, of he was the Presidential candidate, he wowld lose 25,000 votes in this State alone. However, it nominated, he would give his support to Mr. Wob- ster; and although, with many whigs, be opposed military candidates, Gen Sovit, the hero of Chip: pewa and the Mexican war, would moot his choor~ t. " mPa "i Milliken deemed it wrong polisy jto | jo Mr. Fil re at this time—it would only d dissensions amorg whigs, and | onde’ revive sb6 querrst Thir, Wadeworth, tho mover of the resolutions, songht the unanimous consent of the sommittes to | pocket fall of money, to see the Wess, been won in his championship of uaiversal freedom, and of human rights. It is only upon grounds 80 broad and national— £0 just and liberal—so true to history and to his own career, as theze--that Mr. Webster's claims to the Presidency can bo regerded and reoognised by the grout macs of the American people.

If we langhed, the ether day, at the ignoranca displayed by two great European statesmen, Prince Sohwartzsenburg, of Aus'ria, and Karl Groy, of the British cabinet, in confou the one the capital of the Unired States with the city of New York, the other the government of the republic with that of the Empire State, we must claim, to- day, to view the mattor a |i more sorlously; and we thipk it is worthy tho attention of our law ma- kers at Washington, the more cspscially at the present moment, when they aro oonsidaring the Propriety of removing the mint to the “‘eommervial emporium. ‘e have always urged that among the groat and radical objections to such # measure is the daegor of contributing to the overweening growth and cen tralizing influence of that city, which aspires to be, and with tho sid of Congress ia fast booomiug the centre of woalth, fashion, and political power in the Union—the Londos, the very Paris of the coun- try. Do we desire to bring about such 9 resale? or are wo blind to the mighty strides which New York is making in metropolitan importance and grane deur? The facts referred to aro plain indications and signs of the times; and it is because the Em- e city has already reached an elevation, whickt from the foreign point of view, overshadows every- thing else in the land, that an Aastrian Prime Minister, in an official dispatoh, treats it as the na- tional capital, and a British Colonial Seerctary in @ speech in Parliament utters solomn nonsense about ‘the United States of New York.” Tha blunders aro Indicrous; but they show that to the foreign eye New York is the great fea- ture of the country which obscures and be- littles every element of State and federal sove- reignty and of popular consoquenee and dignity. nd such, whatever be the notions of people else- where, is the sort of feeling in regard to New York entertained in New York itself, and freely and bonstfally avowed by its press. Now York isclaimed to be metropolitan in ali taings; while other cities, including tho seat of government, are eontemptue ouely devignated as provincial. Paris herself, which controls Fravor, and therefore renders Franse the sport and prey of every usurper and ro- voluticnary tuction, is not prouder of her greatnoss, and ecarce better assared of her irresistible supre- maoy. Is not Now York more powerful now than any city in the United States cought tobe? Andis it not a proof of the dangerous intuence she wields that Congress should for a moment favorably son- tiderthe monstrous preject of granting a national institution like the mintfurno other purposs than to serve her conyonierce and 8 fy her demands ? Js it not truo thas New York ady, to a certain extent, overawes Congress, and that many mem- bers are afraid to vote ia opposition to her wishos? We havo always protested against tho ides of regarding the mint ax a Philadelphia institution, or a3 ono mich Philadelphia or any other city has a right to claim. No interest should fora moment be thought of in relation to it, except the natioual interest; and whecover that requires its removal, let it be removed. The present mint quostion, in reality, involves a conflict between the national in- terest and that of New York; and it remains to be scen whieh intercst is to triumph, and whether New Yerk is to prove stronger or weaker than the cual Tho interest of the government first placed the mint here, where it a overy want and exigency of atate, and whensze is cannot be ree moved except at great cost, and with more or lest general detriment. Its removal, without necessary cause, cannot but be anact of profligacy, asiavolvin: a wanton waste of the public money. ‘The claim o! New York to have tho mint, based on a considera tion of her interest or convenience, is an arrogant farce, and Senators and Kepresentatives should view tho question fairly in all its relations, weigh- ing, firat, the general polisy of removal, and then the particular wisdom of removing it to New York, whigh is, probably, under all thocircumstances, the worst place which vould be found for it inthe United States. New York wants the mins to coin gold which does not belong to her—the gold of Caltfor- nia, which paseos through New York merely be- cause government has given her the rich prize of the Californias mails, which, if withdrawn, would carry the gold to some other city; and itis very likely, from arrangements now in progress for founding steam lines between this port aud Califor- Dia, that it will not be long betore the larger portion of it will be found flowing into Philadolphia, rizht atthe doors of the mint, as it now stands. Be- sides, what dces New York want with a mint to coin gold, when all she docs with gold is to Bie it immediately to England, a half million or million by every steamer? Now York ia tho city of small notes, which drive gold away—the city, let us add, ef counterfeit notes, also, which are so abundant: there, and throvghout the whole Empire State, as © render almost iudicrous the notion of ‘hat State or that city tne seat of the national coin- age. lo looking over the last number of Lhomp- son’s Counte feit Qetector, for ee we find that the entire list of counterfeit notes inthe Uaited States ocsapies seventy-six columns, of which Now Engtand bas twenty three columas, New York city and State exactly a3 many, and aii the reat of the country only thirty O) tue twenty three columns for New York city and State, the former has no less than £ix for herself-—tbat is, six columns of ounterfeit notes on city banks aloce. That is a no place in which vo plant tho mint ofthe United States. While Now York grows up, or i: ambitious to grow up, the centralizing power of the Union, it is proper for members of Congress, who are so im- periously solicited to aid her purpose, to remember that she boasts seme other recommendations to their favor as equivocal as her pride and her small notes. New York, if not yet a Paris politically, is very nearly so in certain social and moral 5 She is almost a foreign city—we speak of the vast Pe of le savalatine an Santa cba zene, who swell her po tion, giving to it foreiga sontiments habits, and interests. It is not like az Aworican, but a Pe seed | it would bean Eng lish city were it not German, and Gorman, were it not Irish, and Irish were it not French, Spanish, and everything else.

There imported socialism and red republicanism walk hand in hazd with home-born extremism ef all kirds—abolitionism of the Garrisoa and Fred.
