ROVER In the coming ElectlOns


II is now admitted on all hands by the wings, as
we'll as the locofocos, that the organization of the
aboli ionlsts into party, which has been brought
about by the agitation of the slave question in
Congress during the last few years, principally .by
whig members, will exercise a most powerful In
f1uence the presidential election, and hence the
most gloomy forebodngs begin TO oppress the
minds of the friends of Mr.. Clay, with respect to
the particular direction which this influence may
take. The abolitioniss as party are organized in
all the free States, particularly in Ohio New York,
and Massachusetts, and partially in Pennsylvania
and New Jersey. At the recent elections they
took about 60 900 votes in all these States but du-
ring the last year their movements and general
agitation have been conducted on more compre-
hensive scale than on any former OCCASION and
we should not be at all surprised, if during the en-
suing election they were to number 100000 votes
IN all the free States, and perhaps that number
The principal point, however, to which we in
tend to direct the attention of readers at pre-
sent, is the position and power of the abolitionlsts
as presented by themselves, and admitted by all
parties in the State of New York at this particular
moment.
About week or ten days ago, convention of
the abolitionists met at Utica. At this convention,
we learn from their own organs, that, at least four
thousand persons were present The convention
continued in session for some days, and it APP
pears that they discussed deliberated, and
adopted general plan OF agitation from
this time till November, throughout the whole
State of New York About nine years ago the
first Convention OF these men in this State was
held in the same place, Utica. But unpopular
was the movement at that time, that they had to
dlsperse themselves before the impending excite
ment of the people of Utica, who considered them
selves disgraced and outraged by such an assem-
blage. Oa the present occasion from their position
from holding the balance of power between the
two great political parties-from their organization
from their enthusasm-and their stern purpose
OF going ahead-they have commanded the atten-
tion of bothParties, and it is an absolute fact that
both parties are beginning to crouch to these abo-
lltlonsts, who will probably number from twenty
thousand 10 twenty FIVE thousand in the State of
New York


This Convention at Utica have issued report on
their present position, decaratory of their views,
two parties, which is Of such curious character,
and has such an important bearing on the coming
election, that we annex the material portions of il
at length -
