It. will to seen ,that ; the Legislature of New' York
:keep fatted to _elect a U S. Senator for 'viz years
from next PoUrth March, in_place of Ilan. D. S.
.Dfccuisear. , The obstinacy-of "silver - array "in
the Senate, ptivented a nominatilin and finally pre
pared an adjour merit, rendering a special act, or
another joint resolution n 4 cestary, before art elec.
''tion can be had. What the . result of the election
~riley be, is I:limp:tido ;'-init one thing is certain -the
' *big 'party in the State of, New York are in the
midst of quarrel which will divide it for, years,
though' the.two wings are totally iliiproportioned in
strength - -the Seward men comprising the great
Mass of the people; the. Silver.greys Pillniore
imen, the old . , offir..e.horders or expectants. The
Prows_ now operatien to change the' sentiment
it the Witig party is preehiely siinilar to that em
ployed open the DemoCracy. The patronage and
power-cif the President is at once brought into re.
ciiisitien,:and all the marhinery ot government nest,
effect a revelation in
_its sentiment. Such ap
.
pfisnoes always carry the old !ogles; the men who
baring tasted office, have an eternal hankering (or
blinkering) Sher the flesh-pots, while every disin
terested patriot whcris ready to serve his country in
seine official, capacity, 'would as" goon expatriate
' 'himself as'be in o position antagonistic to the pow.
er which.dispenaed the loaves and &hes
Theitind Mogul now; ie the Whig President—
sleeted Vice President with' the-stigma' of being' e
Abolitionist upon his reputation. His object is to
place the Whig piny upon the Southern platform.
We shall see how he will succeed. That party in
hiS ORB State, to their credit , have repudiuted . him
and Ills treason. to fei they have stood firm, bat
whether they wOl bold out, is owing to the integri
.ly of tbe muse'.

Massa, as its editor. Mr. M. brings with-him to
-- his new pbat, s high reputation for ability'and in
testily. We are gratified at this change in the
irsodons. It became upon the death of Mr. Miami
- transferred &Om a t igh toned independent journal,
a tenor to plunderers and rascals, into the veriest
and most emasculated and driveling copyist of the
Pmetajiloceins, to be found in the. whole State.--
WO think we see evidences already that it is to be
brought out of this depth of degradation, and to be
ones Mote conducted with independence and abi
lity.

Tat, Costression or Duxes*.—We ; published
on ' Saturday an account of the execution in Albany, ,
on Friday last; oilmen Deana, who was con•
ricted of murdering two children, by the' name of
Luna., Deana has made a confession of his
crime, of which we give the following abstract.—
The only otiet he had in view in committing the
deed, was personal a,vgrandizement. He had no ill
feeling towards the children, but he thought if they
were out of existence tie would stand a chance to
get a large share of Lester's property. But he pre
tends that the minder was not premeditated, and
that he did not take his wife away for the purpose.
of giving him a bettet; opportunity of committing
the deed. He was al the bartfsharpen!ng his sickle,
and while there, the youngest boy came to get his
permission to-go a fishing It wps then, for the first
time that he conjured up in his brain a plan tor k ill
log them. After some conversation, he induced
him to go to the woods for the purpose of getting
woodcock ; and while he was ktrawinu his attention
to a place where the, child was induced to believe
he could find them, ire struck him clothe head with
a arringie-tree. He aimed well, and with one blow
life.was extinct. •
He covered the body with leaves; hid the stick
under the tog where it was found, anti retained to
the pause. Row to get rid of the other child was
then the all-absorbing thought. Alter reflection, he'
concluded to •entice the child on into the woodem
gather butternuts; and while engaged in this, he
asked the boy it he amal like - to see a crow's nest;
to Which he replied affirmatively. , He told him to
climb the tree which he did, Dunbar following him
op; and when as the height of twentyleet from she
ground, he made a ror tail to a limb. While he
was engaged in making a ntiose, he directed the
boy's attention to finding out the nest, which he
stud was in another tree
, tie then slipped it corer his head.-bitt while he
was doing it, the boy said, "don't, Reuben, &IA "
When he had secured it tight around his neck, he i
kicked his feet from the limb on which he was
sumdin;ts and the child rnnot have bees instantly,
strangled by:the fall, u he did not move afterward.,
When he towed the child off the limb. his cap fell
*the 'mend, Which Dunbar toot and placed on
the limb just above his heed. No one inlet on the
film M the time but _his mother, who, it, appears,.
became alarmed about the children. On the return
of Lester and Denbar's wife, much alarm prevailed
about the absence .or 'the children, and a general
search vrait commenced, 'and the 'boys were foend ,
just as liteihad-lch then. st
He lolly exonerates his tnnther from any partici.
pation in the crime, and says that: on the day when
he committed the minden', she ti SU , riek, marl mom .
have been lying down when he cnmininridt the
deed. With regard to the pail uf water me fast%
are the same as were stated rin the trial; but he
; denies : endeavoring to draw the attention , of
'arson's muntottl iii the seanth.. from the 'Plate
vihewrhechildren were hid. He never became
.fully.conscions, of , the .enorMity of the 'crime he
