The Con- vention finally adjourned yesterday afternoon, after one of the most exciting sessions known in the an- | nals of the unterrified democracy. We give a full report of the proceedings in our columns this morning. | The American General Committee met at the cor- ner of Liepenard street and Broadway last evening, | end fixed on the time and place of holding the seve- ral conventions for the nomination of the Judiciary, Governors of the Almshouse, Register, Distrigt at- torney and Senators, but postponed action on the | Mayoralty nomination for one week,on which a Nively discussion arose. This, with the fixing of time and place of holding Assembly nominating conventions, was finally made the special order for Friday evening next.

We publish both in our columns today. The lossessustained by the British troops at Cawnpore, Agra and Seetpoor were of a very serious character, whilst the fact of a partial rising having taken place at Hyderabad shows that the Madras army was not untainted in | its loyalty.

St. Nicolas Hotel, which was to have beea resumed yesterday before Judge Russell, was postponed till one o'clock this afternoon, when the matter will be disposed of finally. Ccunsel for the accused said that efforts were made to deprive Mr. Lawler of his position :n eociety, ani stated thit he could prove that some pe'son informed Mr. Sternes, the Deputy Sheriff, ‘hat Liwler’s bonds were worthless, On Thursday s man named James Lowery made a comp'aint to Recorder Smith that, on his arrival from Kentacky, his bagzage was seize] and taken to Henry &mithers’ ticket office, in Cedar street, and while purchasing a ticket for England, he was swin- dled out of $40, A warrant was issued for Smithers’ arrest, but he not having bail at hand, and the Recorder being on the eve of departure from the city, he was given in charge of an officer, The records of the Coroner's office for yesterday present a melancholy catalogue of crimes and casualties. No less than two cases o* murder, two of manslaughter, two of suicide, besides a number of minor casualties, occupied the attention of the Coro- ners. Elsewhere will be found reports of the differ- ent oases. The sales of cotton yesterdsy embraced about 700 bales, bared wpon middling uplands at 1bXc.

The Democracy at Syracuse and thelr Dotngs There has been for a day or two past a State Convention in active operation at Syracuse, the objects of which the masses of the democracy have supposed to be the re-union of the party and a platform of principles and purposes adapt- ed to the consolidation into the same movement of all men of all parties who are opposed to the atrocious acts of spoliation, taxation and usurpa tion of the Seward oligarchy of our last Legis- lature. But the doings at Syracuse, though re- sulting yesterday in a sort of Baltimore Conven- tion compromise between the rival delegates from this city and between the hards and softs, have not, for ali that, been Jimited to the exact | demands of the crisis, In the opening proceedings of the Convention we see the personal proje:ts of mousing politi- cians taking precedence over the practical issucs of the canvass. We see the leading lights of the party from the city and the rural districts appa- rently more anxious to cultivate the smiles of the Cabinet at Wasbington in regard to tue federal spoils than to meet the wishes of the people of this State in reference to the outrageous acts, schemes and devices of the Seward oligarchy for the subjugation of this city and the perpetuation of their power of plunder and taxation through- out the commonwealth, If we may take the conflicting cliques, squads and factions of the delegations from this city at Syracuse as an index to the composition ef the democratic party throughout the State, then it is very evident that the discotds of the party are as bad as those which have broken up and dis- persed the overwhelming masses of the late re- publican camp. But we know that while at Syracuse the members of Congress, and federal and municipal officeholders, and Tammany Sachems, aud outside committees from this city have been wrangling and squabbling for the | chief seate in the party synagogue, the heart of | the democracy, of all shades of opinion, in the | city and throughout the State, is sound, and of | one mind in regard to the real practical work of | this canvass. There is some consolation in the fact that after the “terrible row” stirred up “in all parts of | on | factionists to by our city “amounting almost the house,” Thursday, a riot,” signalized by a “half-and-half” compromise be tween the Wilson Small and Peter Cooper de- legations. But we apprehend that this division of the loaf is but a shallow armi-tice, for with the dissolution of the Convention, there was more noise and confusion, and on the return home of our squabbling delegates, their little pereonal rivalries grudges. the spoils of the Custom House, will break out again. This, too, may interfere with the re-union of the party here and throughout the un- less the masses of the democracy shall set to work end put these factious disturbers down with a strong hand. The issues for our November election are not the contemptible squabbles of the leaders of our demoeratic factions, nor the administration mea- sures and policy of Mr. Buchanan. The rank and | file of the democracy of the city and the State, excepting a corporal’s guard here and there, and divisions of our factious disorganizers, The people of the State opposed to the Albany oligarchy, are perfectly indifterent whether Mayor Wood, Peter Cooper, Wilson Small, or John Cochrane, or the foot tion or timent, cit andeState, demands that the cottapt tnd uriadra- pulous Seward oligarchy be expelled from power, apd that the ancient caro gh usages and Bomunities of our cities, ‘and villages, and of Our people, be restored. A wholesome revo- lation, too, from first to last, must be secured in Wate iu 1850. The income of her estate was gived | the materials and in the acts of our lawmakers to ber daughter, Mary Horn, during life, and on ber decease the capital was directed to be divided among’) hee children. Letters testamentary were issued to James Jenkins, one of the executors, and after his death James Horn, the husband of the life tenant, was appointed administrator with the will annexed, the of May, 183%. Mrs. Horn died in the year 1440, and the present application was made by the husband and administrator of Mrs. Cockroft, one of her danghters, to compel an account and distriba tion of the estate, The administrator plead a re lease, executed by all the parties interested, in Aogust, 1862. The Surrogate was called upon to decide whether that releare relieved the administra tor from accounting for the estate. He held that a release such as was claimed was nothing less than » | purchase of the estate by the trustee, when the lega tees had not the least idea of the nature or amount of the property they were signing away. Sach o id not be legal, nor did he consider that sucha ase was sufficient to relieve the adminis trator from filing bis accounts. He therefore ordered him to do so.

Mr. Buchan- an has shown, and is showing, that his adminis- tration is fully capable of taking care of iteelf. At all events, the help of the democracy of New York will not amount to much in behalf of Mr. Buchanan until they shall prove that they are able to help themselves, And now they have a splendid opportunity, which the masses of the party are ready to appropriate to the exact is- And what are they’ The usur- tues before us. pations by the Seward oligatchy of our mu nicipal rights, even down to the impn dent appointment by the Governor of our Street Commissioneran increase of some three millions in our city taxes, and of rome three or four millions in our State taxes, bogus liquor laws, constitutional amendments mysteriously suffocated, nigger equality q@assed « law, bat smothered afterwards just as mys int and petty jealousics and | originating in Tammany Hall over | Conrad = Swackhamer | teriously as some other laws, &c., &c., are the real issues of this canvass, It is not Mr. Buchanan’s administration, nor Kansas, ner Tammany Hall, nor the eld exploded ftummery of hards and softs, nor Mayor Wood, nor Peter Cooper, nor Conrad Swackhamer, nor the Custom Houre spoils, that the majority of the people of New York, city and State, have to vote upon in November; but it is upon this simple question—whether the corrupt and reckless spoils and plunder mongers of the Seward, Weed aud Matteson conspiracy, expelled from the public land spoils and the public treasury at Washing- ton, and taking refuge at Albany, shall be con- tinued in power there or driven out? That proposition comprehends all the practi- cal iscues for November. In a purely local elec- tion, exclusively upon local affairs and local offices, there is no need of going either to Wash- ington or Kansas for political capital. The enemy must be fought face to face; for if he is permitted to slip off upon side issues, he may slip through our fingers. He must be held to a full and strict accountability for his acts; and thus arraigned before the people, bis condemna- tion and expalsion are sure. To this end the Syracuse Convention has been trying to do something; and upon the masses of the democracy of all factions, and upon the in- dependent people of the State of all other par- ties, will devolve the task of supplying all de. ficiencies in the election, Entirely satisfied that there isa heavy majority of the people of the State opposed to the last infamous Legislature and its infamous acta, all that is needed to secure a wholesome revolution is to fight this battle for the next Legislature exclusively upon the ras- calities of the last. Tse ApMrnistRaTioN or Justice In Naw York —The recent charge of Judge Russell to the Grand Jury has furnished the Journal of Com- merce With an opportunity of paying a handsome and well merited tribute to that magistrate’s judicial career. Our contemporary eulogizes in particular that passage in the Judge's address in which he directs attention to the improper and frequently corrupt discharge of criminals by subordinate magistrates without compliance with the usual formalities required by the law. It thinks that the dete: mination announced by him to punieh all such Jackes on the part of commit- ting magistrates is one that will be highly condu- cive to the interests of justice, and it expresses a hope that he will persevere in so praiseworthy & purpore. We need scarcely eay that in these opinions of our contemporary in regard to Jadge Ruseell’s course we heartily concur. We have from time to time taken occasion to support him when the unflinchiog discharge of his duty exposed him to the hostility and calumnies of those who were interested in defeating the impartial administra- tion of the law. It will be in the recollection of our readers that when Judge Ruseell was put in nomination for his present office, he was charged with incompetency for its duties, and we ourselves encountered no small share of abuse for supporting his election. It is gratifying to find, alter a lengthened experience of his capabilities, that he has amply fulfilled all the antictpations formed of him. THe it was that so promptly put down that dangerous crime which, under the name of garroting, at one time filled the minds of the community with anxiety and terror. The promptnees with which criminals of this charac- ter were brought to trial, and the severity with which they were punished, not only arrested the spread of this offence, but also exercised a wholesome influence on other malefactors. Ata time when our city was reduced to a condition of complete anarchy, and when the couflict between the State and municipal authorities left our citi- zens almost wholly without protection, the fear- less apd inflexible discharge of his duties, by Judge Russell, alone sufficed to keep criminals in check and to prevent the city being abandon- ed to rapine and pillage. It was a fortunate circumstance that in the confusion into which | we were thrown by that event we had one magistrate honest enough to appreciate the necessities of his position, and to pursue the rigid couree of duty that he had chalked out | for himself, irrespective of political considera- the proceedings of yesterday morning were | tions, We assert without fear of contradiction, that since the beginning of the present century | we have had no magistrate—not even excepting Recorder Riker—who has done so much for the interests of justice, or who has exhibited so much dignity, discrimimation and inflexibility of pur- pote in the discharge of his official duties as Judge Russell. There fs one recommendation which we have to make to Judge Russell, as well as to his judicial brethren generally. It does not suffice that the law eball be strictly and impartially ad- ministered, but ite dignity must also be main- tained unimpaired. What moral influence can we expect our tribunals to have upon offenders, | when they witness in them scenes such as that to which we had occasion to refer yesterday’ The manners of the cockpit and the barroom. and the language of the stews, are not exactly the modes of expression in which the | law should deal out its lessons and its punish- | mente, It is for men like Judge Russell, who are have no sympathy with the personal rivalries | : 5 8 bold because, they are conscientious, and who | look for their reward solely to the approval of the honest portion of the community, to put an end to this shameful prostitution of the preroga- tives of the bar. With the power which the Judges possess of punishing summarily offences against the majesty of their courts, whether pro- ceeding from the suitor or counsel, there is no them pessing over such violations of decency and gentlemanly conduct as that wit- nessed on Wednesday last in the Lowber case: If tiey do not interpose their authority to stop such low bred exhibitions, the public will give them “but “Iiftle credit for a desire to preserve unsullied the dignity of their offices. Mr. Borts en novtr ror Evnorr.—We under- stand that the inevitable John M. Botta, conspicu- ous in Virginia politics since the days of Capt. Jobn Tyler, leaves in the Vanderbilt to-day for some montbe, and thus be enabled to decide as to the relative merita of the kan-kan as compared to the Virginia reel, as well as the superiority of the bivalves of the Old Dominion over the “na- tives’ By the way, it isa little curious that Mr. Botts should absent himself from his native State just on the eve of what promises to be the most bitter contest for Senatorial honors in her history. Who knows, however, bat what it may | turn out to be an admirable stroke of diplomacy? | Mr. Hunter's friends and Mr. Wise's may get to | that point where a compromise on cither one would be imposible, and then who so available as Botts’ Botts is too much of a patriot to refuse, should his services be needed; and we hope, therefore, he will not forget to keep his friends advised of his whereabouts in case he should re- ceive a call. Tux Trovetes rw Ixpu—Amenicen Syura- THY.—We cepy from the Richmond Whig an ar- ticle on the Mahommedan revolt in India, which speaks encouragingly of the chances of ite sup- pression. Our cotemporary cannot see why & nation which subsidized all Europe to fight ite hatitles against republican France—which from 1803 to 1812 stood alone with Spain and Portu- gal against all Europe, and which from 1812 to 1815 was able to stand an annual war expendi- ture cf more than £100,000,000, should be obliged to yield its Indian empire to the feeble Asiatics from whom it wrested it. Neither can we. Mere is nothing in Great Britain’s present circumstances which would seem to justify the slightest despondency on this score. Our purpose in referring to this article in the Whig is less to notice opinions to which we our- selves have frequently given expression, than to draw attention abroad to this identity of views on the part of the American press. The enemics of England have endeavored to create an impres- sion that the feeling Of this country in regard to the difficulties of Great Britain in India and Chi- na is, as on the Continent, one of indifference, snd even of satisfaction, There can be no great- er mistake. If the American newspapers are to be taken as any evidence of American opinions, the feeling is all the other way. With the exception of some small Irish papers, con- ducted by such consistent patriots as the Alaba_ ma elaveholder, John Mitchell, we believe that the general disposition expressed by our press has been that of sympathy—sympathy, let it be understood, not for the Eoglish government or the English aristocracy. but for the Eaglish na- tion, who spring from the same stock and are animated by pretty nearly the same spirit and impulees as ourselves, and who have a further claim upon our regard in the similarity of their political institutions to ours. Whatever may be thought of the means by which England acquired her Indian empire, there can be no doubt that the struggle in which she is now engaged is one of civilization against barbarism, and that therefore all civilized nations should feel an interest in her triumph. But, ia addition to this consideration, there is another which is scateely less powerful with a commer cial nation like ours. In the hands of Great Britain India is a vast productive field kept open to our enterprise; in those of the Mahommedans or Hindoos it will be, if not entirely closed to us, an unsafe theatre for speculation. Under such circumstances it would be unnatural and suicidal on our part if we were to do anything which would bold out encouragement to the enemies of England in the present crisis of her affairs, As we can afford to present a bold front to her when ehe is unreasonable and arrogant, we can afford to be generous to her in the hour of her adver- sity. It is only by such conduct that we can prove to the world the superiority of republican ideas and institutions. A Goop Ipra.—The Washington Union is out against the organization of a “plunder party” in Congress. Certainly. The first step should be to abolish all the printing jobs in Congress and establish a Printing Department, like the War or Navy Department. Why should not Congress do their own printing, as they build their own ebips? THE LATEST NEWS. Hews from Washington.
