New York, Thursday, September 16, 1858, The News, The Democratic State Nominating Convention assembled at Syracuse yesterday. The customary usage in the preliminary organization, of appoint ing a temporary chairman, was dispensed with, and ex-Governor Horatio Seymour was chosen perma- nent President. Thus at the outset a direct issue between the hards and the softs was made, and the latter carried their point. The subject of the con. tested seats was then bionghtup. The President, atanearly stage of the proceedings ruled against the right of contesting delegates to take part in the business of the Convention. After much angry dis" cussion the question as to the contested seats was referred to a Committee on Credentials. The compo- sition of this committee, and the course of the ma- rity of the Convention with regard to the oppos ing delegates ftom New York, induced the anti- Tammany Hall delegation to present a protest to the acts of the President and the majority, and to withdraw from the Convention.

Whea the unterrified democracy meet in con- vention at Syracuse a row is aa inevitable as when the bone and muscle of Dublin come to gether at Doauybrook for a felendly glass and a pleasent knock-down, The leadersof the fac- tions in this city are like Pat at the fair—con- tinually eearching for the man who will tread on the tuils of their coate. Nor do they search in vain, Great men arisein great emergencies, and it would be sad indeed to find a State Con- vention without a spice of the warlike clement. The Convention which met yesterday seems to have been unusually lively, As a matter of couree the rival factions in this city presented two seta of delegates, each claiming to be the genuine, Simon pure, only original, patented and copyrighted representatives of the metro- politan democracy. The gentlemen from the rural dietricts consider, naturally enough, that the transfer of the local quarrels of New York city tothe State Convention is’a colossal bore, and resolved to kill off the leaders at once, Hence we find Mr. Peter Cagger springing his usual mine, and organizing the Conveation per- manently without receiving the votes of elther of the city delegations. Later in the day, Mr. Fersando Wood, on the part of his delegation, put in p protest against the whole proceedings, ard virtually withdrew from the Convention, anticipating an adverse report from the Com- mitice on Credentials, which report was made— the Wood men rejected and the Tammany braves admitted. Mr. Wood, it will be remembered, represents the organizations which are opposed to the sacheme, braves, war dancers, calumet smokers, tomabawk throwers and fire-water consumers of Tammany Hall, the Coal Hole and the Pewter Mug. His delegation was chosen outside of the preclamation of the Tammany sages, while that headed by Mr. Sickles represents those who are so fortunate as to cit by the council fires in the Old Wigwam. It appearsfrom our despatches that the Tammany men were all along in a majority, and that the anti-Tammany delegates withdrew from a contest in which defeat was a foregone conclusion. The proceedings of yesterday will naturally cause much excitement in the political circles of this city, and will terribly exercise all the small place hunters of both cliques. Otherwise it is not a matter of much consequence. What- ever might have been the action of the Conven- tion, the result, as far as the county ticket is concerned, would have been the same. Had the usual course been pursued, and half of each delegation been admitted, or had both been thrown overboard, or one admitted and the other kicked out, as was really the case, the matter, eo far as the city is concerned, would have been as far from settlement asever. Like the Tartars or the Camanches, the normal con- dition of the city democracy is a state of war: No Convention rules could bind them after the enort of the locomotive that carries them from Syracuse had died away in the Valley of the Mohawk. They must fight, and thie year they have something fatter than uenal as prize money. The city and county ticket has several tempting bits. There are several | thousand more firet rate democrats than there are places to give them, and hungry men will never listen to reason. So we shall have the | Syracuse quarrel transferred to the city and | renewed with redoubled severity. In Novem- ber there will, undoubtedly, be two local tickets—both factions eupporting the adminis- tration, and voting the State ticket that repre- sents its views, and fighting as only angry poli- ticians can fight over personal matters. In a national and State point of view the squabbles at Syracuse are of no moment. The Convention will fully endorse the policy of Mr. Buchanan’s administration and put the State ticket before the people on that issue. The re- sult will be a triumph of the administration here asin other States, North and South. As for the city politicians they must settle their difficulties among themeelves—that is if they ever can be eettled. Somebody will discover perpetual motion and equare the circle before that bappy day, however. Is Mr. Conxerivs Wespen. iy Perserr oF tae Hox, Mr. Tayton? ‘e understand that Mr. Cornelius Wendell, the chief of the Con- gressi_nal printing jobbers and the proprietor of the Washington (mon, bas been for several proving his time among our small beer demo- | cratic politicians to the prejudice of the Hon. mght in a large number of in- | ctments yesterday in the Court of General Ses- | ending him to the State prison for two | entered the premises of | Philip Webster | George Taylor, between whom and Mr. Wendell there is an outstanding account of tome con- | eidcrable public importance. It appears that cotemporancously with the presence of Mr. Wendell in this metropolis, several newspaper articles, through the columns of an obscure little democratic organ or two, have been levelled at Mr. Taylor for the pur- pose of damaging his case among the Long Island democracy as a candidate for re- election to Congress. It is believed that these | assaults have been instigated by Mr. Wendell; snd the presumption is a very plausible one, from the fact that Mr. Taylor, as Chairman of | the House Committee of Investigation on the | Congress Printing, in his report to the House | on the subject, disclosed some of the most astcunding specimens of lobby jobbing and lobby corruptions whieh have ever come to | Night. Our readers will remember that in these disclosures Mr. Wendell figured as the great ling lobby manager and financier, and account for the milk in the cocoanut before us. which li But, if in these aforesaid facts we have the explanation of this visit of Mr. Wendell to New York city, we must beg leave to denounce | the inconsistency between Mr. Wendell as the printer to Congress, aad Mr. Wendell as pro- prietor of the Waehington Uvion. As proprie- tor of the Union, with the aid of bis corps of editors from Virginia, Ohio, Michigan, Louis- iana, &c, Mr. Wendell stands bravely up to the Lecompton platform; and in this capacity it would become his daty, through the cola:nas of the Union, to stand out fairly and squarely for the re-election of Mr. Taylor, a staunch sup- potter in Congross of the administration, Le- compton policy and all. But what defence can Mr. Werdell make for bis treacherous conduct, {, while observing at least a deoorous silence in the columns of the Washington (yon, he has gome oa to New York aod bas stealthily in- . etigated ex obscure democratic journal or two of this city to disparage the public char- veter of a uvaa whom he dare not publicly as- rail? Secondiy, of what value are theae ob- oure newspaper assaults upon a faithfal repre- rentative if they can be traced to the source ard the cause we have indicated? Let the bonest people of Mr. Taylor’s district de cide, Asa Washington lobby jobber and financier in the matter of the Congress printing L:. Wendell has been successful. He was first, although a democrat, elected by a Yarge majority printer of the same House which elected Mr, Banks for Speaker. He was next defeated for the printing in a democratic Congress upon the charge of @ previous joint stock democratic, black republican and know nothing lobby operation; but, though defeated, he epeedily contrived to buy off the candidates cleeted by both houses, In his peculiar line Mr. Wendell has done well—very well; and Mr. Taylor, inhis capacity as a representative of the people in Congress, in disclosing the modus cperondi of ali these Congrees printing jobs, bas done very well. Mr. Wendell should be content to repose upon his laurels, and Mr. Taylor, for his important services to the pab- lic, deeerves the thanks of his conétituents in the most substantial form. Dangerous Conprriox ov Staten Istasp.— The public are not generally aware that matters on Staten Island are approaching a crisis com- parcd to which the late riotous outburst was a mere teapot tempest. Military despotism and official oppression are slowly paving the way for a state of things which Governor Joho A. King will not need to draw on his» imagination to call a “state of insurrection.”’ We have already related how, in defiance of law as of common sense, the Governor directed the Eighth regiment New York State Mili- tia to repair to the island and encamp there: There had been no exhaustion of the civil power of the island, and therefore calling out the mili- tary was illegal; there was nothing for the mili- tary to do there, there being no hospitals left to guard, and therefore their presence was absurd- ly uselese. But it was the purpose of Dr. Thomp- son to revenge himself on Staten Island, and in Governor King—and for that matter in Mayor Tiemann also—he found facile tools for his spiteful purpose. The only object for which the military were sent to Staten Island was to an- noy the inhabitants. That object they are most completely attaining. M It seems that though but a mere fraction of the people of the island were cognizant of and could by any possibility be charged with complicity in the burning of the hoepitals, the whole island is under what is called “ martial law.” As the laws and con- stitution of this State take no cognizance of any such “ law” as this, it isnot easy to dis- cover what “ martial law”—in the State of New York—may mean, and how it affects people living under it. The Colonel of the Eighth regiment has answered these questions for him- self. He is understood to have declared that he is the cole surviving authority in the county; that there are no longer any magistrates, towa councils, boards of health, constables, sheriffs, coroners or policemen—no authority on the island that muet be obeyed except that of Colo- nel Lyons, his officers, eergeante, orderlica and sentries. He is entitled to take any property, real or personal, which he fancies; thus he has forcibly occapicd the land of one man, and threatened to rifle the barn of another. He himself is eubject to no laws; he violates with equal indifference the Quarantine statutes, the ordinances of the town of Castleton, and the constitution of the State of New York. His negro servants break into gentlemen's gardens at any hour of day or night, and soldiers with arms charged threaten to shoot any one who molests them. The public highway is blocked by sentries, who stop passers by with the air of footpads and the insolence of ruffians. It seems doubtful whether the people of the county have eny rights, civil or political. Lawyers express doubts whether they can sell real estate without the sanction of Colonel Lyons and his superior officer. Their right to vote at the November election is gravely questioned. Such, without figure or exaggeration, is the condition of Richmond county at the present mo- ment. When it is remembered that sending the soldiers there was in the origin purely illegal, ard that no law of this State recognizes any tuch law as “martial law,” some idea may be formed of the exasperation which this outpouring of the revenge of Doctor Thompson is exciting emong the islanders. We are glad to hear thet the older and more prominent among them pro- pose to meet on Saturday next at Richmond to take counsel on the matter. It is to be hoped that they may deviee a peaceable method of cor- recting the lamentable errors of Governor King. If they do not, the worst is to come. The oys- termen of the western part of the county are outraged at the assumptions of the colonel of the invading army: they are men of violent temper, great daring, and unruly instincts. They could raire five thourand fighting men at 4 few hours’ notice. It will be well fur Colonel Lyons to keep boats at hand in number sufficient for the escape of all his men in case they are attacked by a force which it would be folly to resiet. Avsornyn Srrrrvat, Pree & Iwwroor.to.— We see that the “ trance medium.” Mrs. Cora Hatch, bas separated herself from her husband, who seems to have retained bis peculiar “ affi- nity” for the dimes taken at her exhibitions after she haa lost her “ affinity” for hin. Whe- ther or not she bas anew “affinity,” we are not informed. The journal which announces the fact of Mrs. Ilatch’s departure from the bed and board of her lord, states she is one of forty “mediums” who bave either severed their matrimonial ties or who are about to do #0. * Some women have abandoned their husbands for other ‘ affinities.” One who has figured in the recent free love conventions is set down as having abandoned two busbands, both of whom are living, and one woman exchanged husbands with a sister «piritualist.”” The fact is, that all there epiritualists and free lovers. women’s rights men and women’s rights women, are pretty nearly alike. Practically, they occupy the same status as public prostitutes oud pimps. They have o little more refinomeut than the denizens of brothels, some education, a little learning, much volability, anda sort of epeciow sophistry which impores upon the ignorant and finds exoutes for the credutour, the weak end lustfully icclined. Socially, they will work great barm, unless meaeurcs are taken to place them in their proper position before the public They are not a bit better than the iniabitants of CL 1 and Mercer streets, i stances they are worse, baving not pour excure of necessity for their bexstiiness, and ia som vew the Taz Poor ov tax Orvy ox ram Comino Wixi er —Gloomy forebodings are entertained b) meny people of the extent of euffering and a1s7 8a to which the poor of this city will be expcsed in the coming winter; and after the trying oréeal to which thé working classes hay been subjected eince the fizancial revuision of leet year, it fe not surprising that fears on that head should exist. Much distress there un- doubtedly willbe; but from present appear” «pers there s some reason to hope that things will not be quite eo bad as wasanticipated. The advertising c lumas of the Hezatp and other journals in the city afford a very, fair example of the prosperity or adversity of the times, and they have presented for some days past the evi- dence of incrensizg activity in business gemeral- ly. A whole column of the Heratp yesterday, for example, was filled with advertisements, not from those seeking employment, but from par- ties wanting some one to employ in various de- partments. But a more remarkable iastance of this kind is to be found in a German cotempo rery of the aame date, which has three columus arda balf devoted to advertisements of the same character. Many persons, clerks, portere and others who have been out of employment for months past have obtained situations within afew wecks. Although there is at present a manifest revival of trade and business, as the above facts show, yet the prospects of its increaring in proportion to the wants of the thousands who have been struggling with the enemy—Adversity—for the past year are not briiliant enough to build the hope upon that the city pcor will be spared some amount of misery and destitution. But though the bustle of reviving trade and the io flux of strangers in our streets have quickened the pulses of life in the city, it is unfortunately true that a similar activity is not visible in the manufacturing business. The factories all through the country are still working short handed; and as the winter approaches no large increage can reasonably be expected. Notwithstanding the outward demonstrations of want and desperation which characterized the city during the financial crisis last winter, it is a matter of surprise that the unemployed got through thst period of terrible trial with- out more suffering than they were compelled to endure. Then, however, they had some little savings laid by, which barely served to keep the gaunt demoa—Starvation—from the door; but now that staff is broken. After the bard times and ecant employment of this year thcee hoardings will all be eaten up, and with too many we fear the worst will have come when the terrors of an inclement eeascn shall be added to abject penury. Jn view of these probabilities, every provision should be made to lighten the burden of euffer- ing and sorrow which awaitsa portion at least of our poor. But we trus' that we shall not be compelled, as in previous years, to adopt that measure of last resort—the debasing pauper coup kitchen. At this juncture an atsociation might be form- ed for the purpore of send'ng as many of our poor laborers and mechanics and seamstresses as possible out to the fertile fields of the West, before the winter ects in, where, if they cannot obtain steady employment, they will at least be able to procure food and fuel at a cheaper rate than they can in this crowded city. The city government thould do their share of the good work by put- ting under way whatever public buildings are to be erected, and the Central Park Commis- sioners should give orders for the employment of as many additional men as their resources will permit. At present they are limited to the expenditure of $50,000 s month, which only suffices for the employment of 2,500 men; but that sum might be increased by one-half with benefit alike to the Park itself and to the unem- ployed laborers of the city. A few precautionary measures of this kind, if adopted now, may avert much of the destitution which must prevail in so large a city during the approaching winter. Tue Fanore ov tux Foston Movement at Syractse.—The Tribune admits that the arch high priest of the lobby, Thurlow Weed, pre- vented the contemplated fusion between the Republican and American Conventions at Syra- cuse. Weed, it seems, desires to keep his party as emall as possible, in order that he may manage it with facility. He desires to be the head and the tail of the Albany lobby and rail- way managers, without forelgn interference of any kicd. He is quite capable of swallowing all the spoils without help from the Americans, who may have the shells while Thurlow de- yours the oyster. ‘Toe Orrea at Bortoy’s.—The secend performance of ‘Mr. Strakosch s #tason wil! take place this evening, whea the “Davghter of the Regiment’ will be repeated.
