The committees from trie several towns after having retired, returned and by Arthur Smith, their Chaiiman, re ported aa follows That after for delegates to attend the Utica Convention, it appear ed that Arthur Smith, William Taber, John Armstrong, Jun. and Eleazer M. Swift, had a majority of the votes given, whereupon It was resolted unanimously that they be nomluuted for the said delegate Uetolved, A the sense of this meet ing, that it is a fuidamcutat principle of our republican institutions that the right of suffrage should iu all caset in which it it practicable.be exercised directly by the people, aa the only ture mean of preventing corrupt combinations of mn to defeat the public will, and promote their own interested slews and objects. Resolved, That according lb this fundamental by tho true construction of Ihe constitution of the nlted Statet, the right to choose electors of President aod Vice President or Ihe U.S. belongs to the people, and that Ihe caucus members of our legislature, who rreardless of their pledre.

hive depri ved them of this right, have violated their duty, as legislator, and abatJou ed all claim to the character of, republicans! and have jjstly forfeited th confidence of the people whose ttill it was their duty to obey. That Col. Young bv ac. tepting a uomirtlon from selfcoo. on ions Id defeat Une electoral law, has justly for feited ail ciatm to me continence ei a free people.aod rendered himself utterly unworthy 6f their support for the first office In'the state.

Retoltti, That, at the approaching election it Is tbe solemn duly or all Ihe friends of the just rights of the people, to uoile their exertions in elevating to office those men "who. by their public acts, have" manifested their adherence lo the cause 6f the "people, those great questions wmen now aguaie ins political community. On motion It, 'was thereupon Retoleed Uoanimously, that there port of the delegates be approved and accepted by this meeting. Resolted, That thia meeting adjourn to Thursday the seventh day of October next, at the house of Luther Gay, lo the town of Washington, for the purpose of nominating candidates for assembly atfd congress for this county, and to transact such other business as shall be deemed expedient, and that it be recommended lo the several towns to send three delegates from each town, and thst a general meeting of the elrc ton friendly tu the Electoral Bill, be alto requested at the same time and place, to approve or disapprove of Ihe proceeding of said delegates.

M. Vaisar, Secretary. Signs of the times in Ulster. The last Ulster Plebeian gives Ihe follow ini account of a meeting, held in Kingston on the 28th ult. It teems the caucus party had called a meeting at another place in the village, for the same day aod hour, fixed for the People' meeting here described, but thill wlin the members ot the caucus meeting understood the tenor of Mr.

Myer's speech, they all left their own meeting, and flocked to the People', to hear the speaker. The friends of the people met at lh Court home on Saturday evening last, pursuant lo notice. The meeting was opened with a manly, independent and excellent adilress of at least one hour and an half, by AbrahanvMyer Esq. on his tecondiug the motion lo appo'nt delegates from this town for the convention to be held at Mr. Tacks Mr.

My er commenced by avowing hit disconnection with all paccie', save only that of the people lie took a luminous view of the solemn mockery which had awaited the people' unwearied (forts to obtain their electoral rights, and delt out pointed rrprouf agninst our legislators, who knotting Ihe people's will had refused lo obey it and referred to their various meetings on the subject of ihe electoral ltw By thi lime lli Court house had become full lo oveiflowing, and thejarce, an sppropiiately portray ed by our neighbor in his last Craftsman as having been acted uttlm Court house, on the preceding Mn hy evc.ihg, was forsooth, then supposed to have been actrd by the author at Mrs. Ridcliu" in the sole pretence of herself nnd family for all the rest had assembled with the meeting at the Court When Mr. Myer sat down, Mr Sudam arose, at he said, to repel hit illiberal allusions to himself. He was succeeded by Mr. RtiggliM, In defence of Mr.

Atagcneial meeting nf ihe electors of Albany, a Dunn' on fwtimln) cit niog Samuel Liuh, lw. was iwrtiiiu.

Ird as a candid tie lor the Assembly Hie inu ling wa very Urge. i PUBLIC MINTlMr.Nr, I In the last Nation 1 Demncinl, the editor, Mr Stnilhuick, uln is wet! knoun not to I personally fiiendly tu .11 r.

Every mao acKnott Icdjje who it not blinded br prrjndice, or pissmn, that lie Wilt Clinton ia tlm first man in the Union in point of talents we make no exceptions among the men on the pub lie theatre of action. Thtre is, we ad mil, a man ir, the shade and from whose retreat nmonj the muses, tr now and then peicrive a raj of that light which once fillid the horizon of our national policy, freedom and fame, who may be compared with I)c Witt Clinton but he is the only one; nnd he himself has acknowledged, that the wisdom ant) foresight of Clinton outstripped him more tliau cen'ury in the iotks of our gi and Canals.

1 not thi, pow ciful reason, and one which iannol but have mighty weight with the people In settling this question. Tie cloud by day and Ihepillarof fire by light, which led Ihe Israelite through the wilderness, were not more conspicuous, or more salutary lights (and tho cloud in this case was clearly a light) than have been the corrutcations of Clinton's genius, and the mild, broad and deep lights of his philosophy, to the people of his native state thouzh the Union hat so Ion? re. jectcd them to worship Aaron's calf, ami to nend the knee to empiricm end quackery, to grope In the darkness of Ertbus, and wallow in the mire of corruption. Though the greatest man in the Republic, truly disposed lo be, and the most capable of being the benefactor of bla country; he has been the most persecuted of any man among us. The same reasons that Iculacecf the FbUis line Id seek unre willingly (be destine HUH, wiejwr'i eiBUKHtMMtit.

Clinton all the rofariciof mean ambition, all the "choice tpirita''f intrigue and oorruptlon, all the chicanery of tht law, anil all the tool of that monopollt Inn southern faction (commonly called "deveh faces' which has to long usurp ed the power of the federal govern. merit, by depriving the people of ibeir electoral rights; and br bribing our bate northern jackalls, when they cpnld accomplish their purposes ia no other way. "YOUMCST KtKP DOWN it an inscription which does not appea' on me lace oi any commission, issued by the general government; but almost every incumbent who hat received a commission in this slate, for many year past, ha perfectly understood It, though not among tho emphatical vtuidtprlnted on the race of the Instrument This, i do not hesitate to affirm, from what 1 know myself, has been ihe turning point, the alpha and the omega, iu the pditi Ctrl considerations that have influenced the dispensation of nine tenths of the offices which have been bestowed in this state by the Washington Administration, for at least twelve yeirs past. We talk of the corruptions'that destroyed Greece and Rome, the profligacy of the same sort that has prevailed In Modern Europe and we forget all Ihe while, or shut our eyes to the fact, that for to young a Republic, we have gone down hill ia the same way as fast as any nation that has preceded us. Bnt Ihe people of the state of New York begin to see the secret hand that has so long doomed to the ostracism, as regards the generat government, their ablest, if not "their most faithful citizen They every day behold and enjoy the fruit of his genius at home and they ration illy ak themselves, why so much splendour of intellect, and profound phi losophy, has been so long confined with in the narrow preciuU of one state, when the Union has so much need of them and when almost erery day she is heaping official distinctions upon the heads of men of inferior capacity I his question comes home lo their moral at well as political sense; aud the more they revolve it, the clearer do they perceive, that the individual who is thus systematically pursued by persecution, must be either notoriously viciou, or pre eminently virtuous but they all well know that sice is a total stranger to Clinton's character and hence the true and irresistible conclusion, that he is PROSCRIBED Foams VIRTUES I This cuncludoii.

so just and so hun orable to their snod sense, is strengthened by his removal from office, as Canal Commissioner, by a legislature, whose deeds and whose character, will stink in the noses of all posterity, to the 1,1 test generations. For these reasons, among' others, CLIN I'ON has become, and no man of observation can denv lliffnct, Ihe PEOPLE'S CANDIDATE for tho office of Governor. This is our deliberate opinion; and should the prevalence of a ilifferent opii'ion defeat his nomination at Utica, we have serious feats of the result, though it i more than probable that the candidate selected, if not Clin ton, may be one whom we shall cheerful ly and sincerely support. eUDLIO RFNTIMENT ABROAD. Since the commencement of the ex tra session of Ihe New.

York Irgixlature, tve hit examined ttith close attention the columns o( newspapers in other states, ttith a view of atcerUining their opinions upon the great question, which now ngita'eii (his Mate nun it is gratify ing to'fiud, that with almost one ac curd they lake side with Ihe people a sainsHhe cjucus system and Ihe Albany Uigaiicy. Ncaily all of t'lem har cipted the pt oceedingsof the Irsislalure, ai they appeared in New Ymk piper, iliiendly tu the cause of popular liht ninl many of them have given optn nnd decided expressions of their ouu opinions. Out of Ihe eleven daily jnur nals published in I'hiladclnhia, tte have observed but one (the Democratic Presn) tvhjcli has attempted to justify or palls nte IKp con luct of the legislature in re fining i i pas the electoral law. Of the fltciiuily Baltimore pipers, not one has iai il its voice in opposition to the rii'ila clai ned by the people of this slate and in Bo.ton and other places the same unanimity has been manifested. Hereafter we mar perhaps cite ex tracts from papers abroad, in evidence of what tre now assert; uiihout fear of contradiction, twt rue vhioeov tiik ati ok is tri nt th raopLK ok the a ate or new iohk.

NY Slates, That the opposition existing in this state, and out of it, to an electoral law, has its foundation In a belief, with Ihe parli.ans of Mr. Crawford, that he can nol'iafely look lo the People the legit imatc source of all political power, for the honor he seeks, is a fact which those parlizajis no longer attempt to disguise. They therefore very wisely conclude, that the main chance consists lo depriving the people at large of any voice in the matter, however emphatically they may ask for the right ot being heard on a subject of such dep interest to them. Ontario Rep. Not many days since, we were in conversation with a determined supporter of Mr.

Crawford, and a Violent oppo sent of the electoral law, who "frankly," admitted the right of the people to what they asked, and the injustice of with holding it "But," said he, ne now want the power for our own purposes, and must have Upon our asking bin) how he expected to reconcile Ihe to so high handed a neasnto, be laughed at ui. "Have you been to long In the said this contcieotioos republican, "and donVyet know my thing about the magic of a name Don't yon know that we are the "Jtrpio licata, who are doing this Why sir. In lest than a twelvemonth the majority of the people will be saUCed that it ia a sound republican measure, and necessary to preserve ihe republican parly." Such were the declared feelings and view ol one of the adversaries of the electoral law, and such, we fear, are the views and feeling of the great leading onet among them. A. fice Prtsidcnt.

The Staletma urge the four following, cogent objec lion against Albert Gallatin, a a ean didate for the vice presidency of Ihe nited State 1st that he being a foreigner, the utmost itretch of liberality dnct not require that we should prefer him to a native citizen Sd, that the part be took inline Whitkey rebellion, it, to tay the least, no recommendation to him 3d, that at a critical period during the late war, be deserted his post at the head of the Treasury Depart ment and took refuge from our financial embarrassments In a snug birth at a foreign court 4th, that he has already as liberally shared the favors of govern ment os he is entitled lo by hii talents and service. Yet, the Washington caucus that recommended Mr. Crawford for Ihe presidency, have with a full knowledge of these forcible objection, also recommended Mr. Gallatin for the vice presidency. Neither of them have however, a yet, accepted of (hal notn ination, and that whole farce will, unquestionably, end in smoke.

Ulster Plebeian; TVie State Convention, to be held at Utica, on the Slst inst. seems likely to be very generally attended. The Daily Advertiser of the 24th ult savs, "We can assure our friends that there is every prospect of unanimity on the occa sion." The same paper adds, Ihe Dest Interests ol the stale will be consulted, ihe strongest men will be fixed on, and unanimously supported by the eret republican party ot the state The frievds of the electoral law trill triumph, the ruling faction will be pros tiatid, and the state disenthraled, from the dominion of Inen feeling power and wanting An excellent Ait. The member of the legislatere who assigned audi various and contradictory reasons for an adjournment of the extra session without passing the electoral taw, and who voted first, thatthe bill ought to pan, and then that the Governor be censured for calling them together, lo pass il, are thus ndmirably hit off in the People's (Chatauque) Gazette; "They are placed 'sivt tho editor in Ihe same dilemma that once beset their illustrious predecessor in sagacity, the immortal Sarcha Panza. In Ihe territory over which Sancha presided, a bridge had been built, and at one end thereat a gallows erected A law was enacted requiring that any person desi.

ring lo pass that bridge should be questioned as lo hi business and destination if he gave a tiue account of himself, he was permitted to pass unmolested if on the contrary, his account" was false he should be forthwith executed on the" aforesaid gallows. It happened that a traveller wishing tu pass, answered to thetisual interrogations that he waa going to be hanged. This reply called fur a resolution of the following propo sition: Ihat the traveller either lied or 6poke the truth If they hung him, he spoke the truth, ami ouht to be ac quilted if should ucqiiitted, then he lied and ojght lo be hung In nth er word, it he lied he spo'te true, and if he tpokc true he lied." Newspaper blom up Mr Noah ha withdrawn from the editorial depirtmcnt of the National Advorate, and his is sued a pamphlet of pages in which he assigns the causes ulucli have driven him to this act. He makes a strong case, and appeals lo his friends ami the public for their support of a new paper under the same title, whieh he is about to establish. The present Advocate has passed into the hands of Mr.

Kck ford, who, Mr. Noah contends became possessed of it by unfair means. The Advocite of 3d inst. denies the cor redness of Mr. Noah's stattmentas tounfjirness The old Advocate is to continue on the same political course; while Mr.

Nolli promises that the new Advocate shall also be conducted nn the same principle at the old one was while under his control. Mr. Noah threaten to expose the tricks and management of what he call a small and select part; in the city of New York, who are anxious to control (ifliirs both at Washington and Albany, aud who therefore represent thcirr scltet as the influential men of Ihe de mocratic party of this state, and Ihe only pioprr persons to be consulted on all questionsNelating to the city and state a flairs to contracts, appointments, nnd national measures," but who are in fact men of little influeuce. He sums up their character in the following terms, "They are an intriguing, managing, verrtaching, shaving Junta whoso sup port is ruinous, aod whose opposition is unavailing. To protect the community against such men, a press is indis pensibly necessary, and no man un derttandt them better than I do, or can be more disputed to protect the public against the n.
