DiLLAYE AND LYON IN THE LISTS, a&e., &e., a. @ fta Synacver, August 18, 1853. 70 THE EDITOR OF TAB HERALD. Unavoidable engagements have kept me, till this moment, from giving you the history I promised in wy letter of the 15th, of the meeting of the Young Men’s Executive Committee at Aloany, on the 0th. Your Albary correspondent of the 1ith, after going through half a column of misstatements as to the ori- gm of the committee, as 1 have shown in my letter in te day's Hexaxp, proceeds to say that Mr. Lyons’ appointment was the last thing heard of the com- mittee until the 27th of July, when “Mr. Dillaye again turns ap, and over his own signature, purpért- ing to be Chairman of the Execut.ve Committee of 3862, calls a mecting of the committee at the capi- fal, on the 10tn.” The call in question was made af- fer repeated requests on the part of members of the eemmittee, fora meeting, and the form adopted ef giving notice was urged upon me by various mem- Bers of the committee. Ihave now in my poxses- gion a large number of letters requesting and author- tag me to adopt the course in relation to the call I porsued. It is sufficient to suy of it, that the gentle- men who have caviled so much about it, thoaght it ef sufficient impertance to answer the suunmons, and prevent themeelves at the capital. Your correspondent proceeds to say that ‘ Dillaye assumed tbe chair, but was neither regarded nor re- wpected farther than to put the question, whether Mr. Geo. J. Gallagher or Daniel B, Taylor should be temporary chairman.’ I did take the chair for the gole purpose of calling the committee vo order, and mominating 3 temporary chairman, as I had been Fequested to do, by nearly every geutleman who afver- ‘were 8 complained of it as an usurpation of authority. But independent of any request, I had the undoubt- ed right to doo, as had every member of the com- miitve. But [had no sooner taken the chair than Mr. Bogardus nominated Mr. Taylorfor temporary chair ‘Ws: ina marner and with a spirit that seemed to look Getiance at the course I proposed to pursue. Having faken the position, [ teit divposed to maiataia it, and the conven‘ion sustained m2 iu the nomiaation @{ Mr. Gallagher. Up to this time there had been no disposition displayed by the young democracy to wevive rectional issues or disputes. Mr. Gallagner, en motion, nominated a committee to report perima- nent Officers for the organizahon. { then offered a motion for the appointment of a committee of tive on resolutions and an address, The chairman de- eided that such w motion could only ve entertained giter the permavent officers had been selected. On the coming m of the committee their report was wnapimously adopted. Immediately on the chuir- man elect taking his place and conclading his re- marks, I took the floor to renew the motion I had | before offered. Mr. Bogardus at the same time rose, ‘and being immediately in front of the chairman, | first arrested his attention. He moved the appoint- | ment of 2 committee on resolutions. There was no | ition, and the committee was appointed. I | moved the appointment cf a commitiee of three | fo report an address for the consideration of the com- mittee. Mr Shorts and some other gentlemen one committee enoagh for both pur; y Dbutas Mr. Bogardus bad purposely omitted in his sesolation avy reference to an address, I did uot feel either dispored to act upon the committee or bitch | an address to its action as a minority report. After | & goud deal of opposition a committee to report an ress Was cartied. Myself, Burr and Morrell were + inted on that committee. m the going out of the committee, there was found wo be # perfects unanimity of sentiment upon pearly every part avd portion of the address finally | adopted. it contained a clear, unequivocal aad well | detived reiteration and endorsemeut of the principles of the Baltimore ulatform; it acknowledged the ferce aud applawied the patriotism of the inaaga- Fal; it revie ved the cireumstances which led t tue Revessity of a clest enunciation of the principles of | ‘the party ; it resoyvized she binding force of these principles npon every member of tue party, aud de- pounced all opposition as deserving of the oppro- bium of nopest men; it recognized the pledges which led to the union of the party, and an- Bounced the deterwination of the yuung demo- cracy to sustain them ; it stigmatized as factious all who refored to subscribe to these sentiments, and @eprecating the mere personal animosities of the t, discarding uli alfinity with the incitors of sedi- a m the rauks wherever they might be found. The address was intended to be a full and frank | avowal o/ the adherence of the youug democricy to | the national platform of the party, ay agreed upon | a Baltimore, aud it was sopposed to be so plain in its expression of sevtiment, tat no roym would be JeR ior dount as to the creed itinsulcated. Mr. | Burr and Mr. Morell at once conceded that it was @istinet and unequivocal upen ali national points. ‘They therefore tigned it and placed it in my hands to report ss the unanimous report of the committee. | The majority of the Commitee on Resolutions brought im ite report, adop' substautially toe resolutions said to have bees passed by the State committee at the Astor House, with a re- aoletion censoring the national administration.

The next engi came up upon the amendment of the resolution censuring the President, whic :, us I have before shown, was so amended as to approve of his any responsibility, the majority moves y it and its own resolution on the » Which was carried by a vote of uine to eleven. A resolution was then offered and carried, authorizing the chair- man to call meetings under certain circumstances. The report of the committee on an address was thea called tor, Mr. Taylor was icularly facetions as the ciairman of the commitree, showing hie usual courtesy and high toued dignity of manner, aud hum- selt ready in aovance to oppese the address ualess the committee had concluded to report his long rode hobby—Hon. D. B. Taylor’s resolations—as the only idea of democracy knowa to the party. Tbe address having been read, there was not in it to find fault with, except thet it pronounced all persons factionists who Gomes oer, union of the party upon the basis of the Baltimore platform and inaagural, and declared those individuals who regarded the battle for men’s personal ascendancy of paramount importance to the success of the national party, as not alone uuworthy of leadership, but destrustive to the best interests of the aewocracy. This portion of the address, Mr. Taylor said, might be applied to some of bis friends, and to some of the great orbits aboat which his mind contiaually revolves. In reply w bim I had occasion to say that the lan- gnage of the address was clear and explicit, and could only apply to those gentlemen who occupied the post-ion described, and that if he or bis friends were in that category, it was undoubtedly meant for them; but that’ it was tar from the intention of the writer of the address to hit anybody that did not feel by their course of disaffection and disorganization againat the national platform and the national party, as if they ought, in all honesty, to have a drubbiag. The idea thrown out by Taylor was taken Le by Bogardus, and potwithsianding Burr declared him- sel! to be 2 good grammarian, and bad no hesitation in saying that it parsed all national democrate out of danger, and Mr. Morrell was of opinion that it was allright, the flat was issued and it was voted down—Mr. Burr and Mr. Morrell votiug with the mojority. The commit‘ee then adjourned. Ajl it accomplished as the fruit of an adamantine herd triumph, was to the three first resolutions adopted at the Astor Honse—propose to censure the President, and then back out from the attempt— while in debate they openly denounced his conrse — and to lay on the table an address pledging the de mocracy to the support of the principles of the Balti- more platform and the inaugural, becanse itdenowme- ed factionists; aud refuse to be bound by the State Nominating Convention to be held at Syracuse, which their own minority committee had called, unless its course should tally with that policy which looks to a permanent and entire dismemberment of the democracy. I for one, am not ready to ron the gauntlet apon thie Quixotic rece. While I hold an hones’ and un- equivocal adherence to the prinviples of the party, as settled by the party, to be not my binding upon every democrat, but essential to his fellowship in the party, 1 discard any and every anti democratic] and isorganizing poset nde drive the democracy from ite usages, aud from its adherence to nomiuationsand Principles, into the anomaly of « personal squabble after party dictation. indi As principles are lost sight of, duals rise into importance, in the difficulties are too often the prelude to those sanguinary | conflicts in which personal ambition outrides all oh- stacles and all principles, to rule over the ruin it creates. Respectfully you's Sriven D. Ditaye. Stephin D, Dillaye, of Syracnse, N. ¥. TO TRE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. Daivy Osssrver Orrice, Urica, August 22, 1853. Dear Sir:—I noticed in the Heraxp of last Friday, & long communication from tue above named young gentieman, iv regard to the Young Men's Democratic State Executive Committee, aud was surprised to discover that be cherished so much ill nature to- wards myself. Trse, my convictions of political duty would not permit me to vote for him for chair- man of that important body, or for the adoption of the elaborate and eloquent address be was vouch- eaied the honor to report, in consideration that he had taken such great pains to write it. But the re- cord will also show that on all the questions there passed upon, both as regards the organization of the committee and its declaration of principles, my votes were only in accordance with a decided majo rity of its members; and hence I cannot help regard- ing it as rather unfair in Mr. Dillaye, to single me out as the special object of his bitterness. Still, 1 do not belicve that all “Dillayes are dan- gerous.”’ and considering my undoubted agency in producing his present ey, frame of mind, I Fhould be quite content to silently endure this litte ebulition of bis soured spirit, were it not that in his phrensy be has committed a gro3a misrepresentation facts personal to myself. Without stopping, , to criticie bis masterly version of the aud acts of that committee, | will at once and notice the follo extracta. Speaking of the Aiuss Couvention at Utes, at which this com- mittee was appointed, Mr. D. saye:— The night previous ¥o the meeting the committee as rembled in their room i proposed that an execu’ mcerscy of the Stata thould be a; tee assented to ihe proposition, aud immediately there aftor ¢rew up notices and bad thew placed in conspicuoas pisces. requestiog the delegatesfrou exch Congressional distric! to agree upon the mame of tome genview hem on that comm(tes, and siat would hear and recsive their repor’s 0: tog, in theie roova The enunui see 6 and remaned iL sober of tie 1 agreed npon th every ipstange but one the raport was received au ine.

Moreover, a majority of thie sub-committee volan- tarily assured me that they desired my appointment on the State Fxecutive jittee; and if it was really such a notable offence in Mr. Bogardis to thas enter my name, im accordance with the avowed pre- ference’ ct a majority of his associates, what will be said of the conduct of this same Mr. Dillaye, who, having been temporarily entrusted with the safe keepiog of the original Jist, took the responsibility net only to enter a name, (that of Mr. Miller,) bat also to draw a black line over mine to make room for it? I a ae ont this query, without ques- that Mr. Dillaye 's ‘‘a marvellous proper man,” however slow our committee may have been fe apereciate, as he desired, either himseif or his address. The truth is, it was not at first considered of vital importance what particular names com) the State Executive Committee to be appointed, and im the forenoon of the day a list of the duferent Con- resrional districts was made out, the blanks for the committee being supplied with names, in great part, by informal consul us With persons sent trom the respective dwtricts,and when a jistrict was not represented, by this sub-committee alone. In this way, | suppose, added to the fact that I was personally known to mest of the committee, my pame got on the list. And here the matter would have ended, had not a certain tew in this city,- who are continually mouthing the parrot cry of “union and harwoety,” concluded to give another demonstration of their very pacific poet’ by de- manding thet my name shouid bé struck tron the list, and a freesoiler put on; and thus only did my dittrict become an exception to the rale—it being the only one in which objection was made to the name first entered upon the list. Asa conmenence, @ pitched battle ensued, and, with such tenacity was my repudiation insisted upon, that Mr. Clinton waa induced to name an hour in the evening when he would leat what was to be said in reference to the matier, An exceedingly spirited canvass followed, and a fall presentation of the case was made to Pre- sident Clinton, who, after bearing a number of speeches on both rides, promptly appointed me; and the pretence, that just before holding this hearing, Mr. Clinton vaid—‘‘Mr. Miller was entitled to the appointment, and should have it”—even if true, on strengthens my position; for it would show that the case made out by my friends, in the face of all this unrelenting opposition, must have been not only strong enough to carry conviction to an unpre- jndiced jadymenrt, but so palpably just and proper as to actually change the previously formed conyic- tions of the President. As to the article from the Daiwy Observer, of the day of the convention referred to, I can only say I have since seen no reason to recail anything I then wrote, And asa striking verification of the predic- tion I then made—that. organization of the young democracy of the State would prove of incalculable service in the future—I point with pride and gatisfac- tion to the high-toned proceedings of the late meet- ing at Albany. Steadily refusing to tread the beat- en track of pclitical sycophants, that sterling com- mittee had the courage to put themselves olaly and juivocally on the record, as infinitely more de voted to sound vational democratic principles than to the fulsome flattery of public sérvaute, however __ And for ‘ove, Lehall be heartily rejoiced when politiciazs generally possess sufficient tnoral courage and honesty to imitate the proud example which has been set them by the Young Men’s Demo- cratic State Executive Commi!tee of New York.

The Dover and Lady of tae Lake steamers contribated goodly instalments of the geveral number present at each of the two trips mede during the morning. The Dover brought Hon John P. Hale as a passenger, who, on being intro- duced to those awaiting the arrival of the boat, re cetved three rather weakly cheers. The Lady had such a crowd as to canse (pt. Walker's broad, jolly face to even beyond its usual dimen- siqus. She arrived at balf-past ten o'clock. At 9 quarter past ten a procession formed in front of the Pavilion Hotel, and preceded by the Mil- ford Brass, Band, marched to a five grove on a farm sbout balf a mile to the northeast of the village. Here convenient seats were erected for the Ludies, Dg. We can only attempt a sketch of the proceedings which afterwards took lion of the plat- form, of covr-e, was Jobn P. Hale, who was heartily checred as he took his pao there. The chair was taken by Hon. Amos Tack, of Exeter, supported a competect number of Vice Presidents. whole arrangements were under the marshalship of N. B. Whitehoute, of Rochester. By request, prayer was offered oy Rev. Mr. Hutchins, of Dover, in a manner appropriate to the occasion, m. Awos Tuck then took the rostrum. He spoke of the satisfaction which the freesoil party experienced in meeting be ge and consalting con- cerping the difficulties they had experienced in strivirg for the inalienable rights of man—expa- tiatipg on of liberty and the natural right which 2ll men, of ali colors, had toa share— declaring that among all meu, of all parties, the a, of selling the boves and muscles of any man was considered @ crime in the face of the Almighty. The sustentation of slavery, he said, was caused by no- thing else than political profiigacy, which should assuredly fall under the efforts of the party of whith the present assemblage was a portion. He concluded by welcoming the audience to Wolfhorough, and in- troducing the first speaker, Hon. Mosss A. Canrhann, of Exeter, who was re- cetved with three cheers of rather a questionavle live- rality. He asse: ted his independence of all convention- al ruJes as to what he should say or do; and he hoped all men would asrert the same determination tw do as they might please. He hated everything between him and freedom, even the plank below him (and immediately ubove the reporters) because it hindered his contact with freedom. He was for planting his feet on a rock, on which the ciple of liberty was founded—the prineiple that all men were on a level— and . No power on earth, or any other place, could move him, or those who placed them- selves thus, trom this position, and no man who was not a free soiler col stand onys solid foundation; and this he eaid sreslt=#rs8 in the face of Hunker demoerate—the most terrible of the political creation. Mr. CarTLanp concluded by expressing his belief that the freesoil party were bound, under the direc tion of Heaven, to produce a political and social mil- leninm, and that there was not a jot or tittle of an acknowledgment of the principles of slavery in the Constitution of the United States. [A gentleman of color is reading what we now write, over our shoul- der, and without leave asked or given, and requects thatthe “licks be put in.”"] The remainder of Mr. C.’s speech was more notable for its eccentricity than supplicative that for anything. else; and powerfull: le would ‘curse the constitution,” and advisato- ¥ of the most determined 0} ition—even to the shedding of blood, and the taking of life—to the ex- ecution of the Fugitive Slave law. The g] was, in whole, sufficiently intemperate to suit the com- plexion of the most rabid disorganizers, and rather remarkable, above all, for its prosincss and ite tilthy adulation of John P. Pale. Hon. Jonn P. Hare rext spoke. He was gthd to meet the assembly in the open temple of the Most High, under the free atmosphere of God’s heaven, pel the mountains of his own native country— the pillars ot the strength, and monuments of the Lee of the Most High—on the smile of the Great jirit, where that Great Spirit had his loveliest de, and to 8] , Dot to politicians, but to human hearts. His subject, in continuation, was, how does the Fugitive Slave law operate? In illustration, he told the By of a fugitive slave in Asia Minor, who was wandering there, (viz.: Koezta,) and hunted by the Austrian bloodhounds. The Austrian authori- ties were of the belief that, when he was taken, this fugitive had no right to a trial by jury; but the cap- tain of a small vessel of war in the port of Smyrna (Capt. Ingraham) thought otherwise. Her com- maxder hada heert—an American heart—and he snarled with the fugitive; and he, although out- side the pale of Christendom at the time, having found that Koszta had intended to become an Ame- rican citizen, went to the Austrian slave catcher and told him that if Koezta was not set at liberty he would compel him to be set free. Some demur was made to this demand, when the American captain repared to enforce his demand, and such was his levonstration that the oppressor was afraid, and yielded up the oppressed to the protection of An rien. The sequence had given general satisfucti and delight over the whole country. Even the old bunkers felt it. And why this €xultation? Why was this joy,'when it was considered that the act of Captain ‘Ingrahem was a sober infraction of the Fu- | gitive Slave law? It taughta great moral—it told | where the hearts of the whole toe ple of this great country were—testified in behalf of human nature in thisgountry against those political trammels which | wer@place on human freedom. Were tivere any of | the class of Capt. In; jam here? (Several parties, | about a dozen cried “Yes!”) Would any here act 23 | he had done, did opportunity offer? (Yes) Mr. Hale expressed some doubt of the genuineness of there responses, and related an anecdote concerning the lassitude of anti-slavery men in New Hampshire, who voted for men who were opposed to emancipa- tion. He wanted men to vote as they would pray, and pray according as they would vote; and that it should be no longer so, he urged upon the conven- tion not to remember their politics and forget their | menhood—or reverse the order in which their more! | faculties and political requirements were placed in relation to each other. The former were salted down in the very bottom of the barre, and the latter were | ever kept on the top, and tie first was often- | times forgotien. In continuation, Mr. Hale wished that some chance would occur through which | a demonstration of petite to the Fugitive Slave Inw would be given by the men of New Hampebire. In their cas ie would be five to say, no man could order that ins be put around their mountains, as around the Boston Court House. God, he thought, had a great controversy with the people at present; and that His great law should be over- ridden by conatitutions and factions, or upbeld to the rotection of universal liberty, were the questions at | seue. That the Almighty would prevail in this | State, was in his mind irresistibly present, for when He made Hia free winds to blow among these pine tops, and settled His smile on the adjoining lake, He did so not that they should be breathed aud gazed in by slaves, but by freemen. In the afternoon he promised to give the Conven- tion an insight into ite duties in connection with the observance of the Fugitive Slave Law, vad ask their rs opinion in reference to it. Bain having been threatened some alterati arrangements was Made, so as to combi speeches intended for the afternoon wit! the forenoon Togramme.
