( Expressions of eatisfactiow.) believe that Mr. Douglas’ has a hold on the masses of this State which renders it impossible for any headway to be made within the democratic organiza- tion of this State against him. 1 beliove that altho some gentlemen, who are determized to rule or rain t ty, may persist in effecting an organization in this te antagonistic to Mr. Dongias, whom | believe to be the regular nominee of the democratic party, yet their eiforts, however they may look in the news- will meet with “a humiliatin faare, 1 hope, therefore, that not for the t principles for which we contend—not only for the necessity of carrying this State, but for the sake of the very respectable gentlemen who are disposed to go for this forlorn effort, they may abandon all attcmpts to raise an antagonistic flag, and try to give the entire electoral vote of New York to Mr. Douglas. Assuming, therefore, that this ove electoral ticket cannot be accom- plished, the vext effort is to carry the State, even against any antagonism in the party, for Mr. Douglas, (Ap plase.) Sir, I believe it can be doue, (Continued ap- pas se and excitement.) I belie 7e that the State of New Yerk can be carried for Mr. Douglas, votwithstaading any opposition that may come from within or from ,without. Of course it requires an effort; it requires a perfect organization; it requires a good understanding: tt requires that all past dissonsions and diffurences shail be entircly forgotten; it requires that all of us shall come up ag one man, and ‘rally to hs cause, giving it our best exertions and our best labors. If that be done, if the same enthusiasm which I know actuates our brethren iu the interior of the Slate be manifested here, if the democracy be once more aroused, and if they go into the contest with their wonted energy, determination and consolidation, their power will prove irresistivle; and I have no dowbt that the influence of our example on the surrounding country will enable us to reach Albany with a net majority of at least 40,000.
