Democratic Central Union. At a regular aud well attended meeting of the Democratic Central Union of the county of Kings, held at the Eagle Hotel ia the city of Brooklyn on Thursday, tho 23th the following preamble and resolutions were adopted with great unanimity and the clearest tokens of general approbation. Whereas, it is universally known to the inhabi tauls of this district, that Wm. J. McAlpio, chief engineer of the Brooklyn Dry Dock, by his overbearing, oppressive and tyrannical conduct in exercising the power of his office for selfish purposes, has materially injured the democratic party of Kiugs county aud that by the influence of his un inented official position, has been the chief cause of keeping the democracy of this district in a minority or the last two years, aud by a variety of acts has rendered himself so thoroughly odious to the friends of the administration (many of whom have been alienated from the party they would otherwise support) that his continuance, in his present station, iB generally viewed as a public grievance, calling loudly for redress.

Therefore Resolved, That we respectfully urge upou the department at Washington, at its earliest convenience, the removal of this unworthy officer from the power and place he abuses, that the public service may be promoted, and that the Democratic party thus purified, may again stand triumphant in the county of Kings. Resolved, That a copy of the above preamble aud resolutions, bo signed by the President and Secretary of this Central Union, and preseuted to the city and county committees, asking their direct action upon them, and if they concur in the views therein expressed, that theii Presidents aud Secre taries respectively, be requested to endorse the same, and inlorm the President of the Central Un iou, officially, of their proceedings thereon. Resslved, That the foregoing preamble and reso lutions be signed by the President and Secretary of mis central Union and published in the Brooklyn Eagle. JOHN S. DEVLIN.

Willis Hall, in announcing his determination to jo for Van Buren, first speaks of the wreck of his parly, aud then beautifully adds: When the vessel in which I am embarked is driven upou the rocks by the winds of heaven, or by the barratrous act of the master, it is but the instinct of self preservation to bind myseJf lo the largest fragment of the wreck.

M. Choale, of Rhode Island, to be followed by Pyrotechnic displays, etc Tho Tribune further says, that the new building iu the rear of the Casllo, for the moving machinery aud the engine, is completed, aud 160 feet in length giving ample accommodation to all the new ma chines offered. The interior arrangements of the garden will' be much improved by tho absence of the disagreeable and continual clatter under the galleries, which formerly has been a considerable annoyance while examining the various beautiful articles so lavishly profuse in these exhibitions. Altogether, there is very fair evidence, so far, that this Fair will surpass any of its predecessors in the splendor aud variety of tho articles presented. There is of course, a very general interest in it, and this year, again, it will be thronged.

Gen. Taylor's pretended opposition to slavery. Willis Hall, the able attorney general of this state under Gov. administration, treated th subject iu a masterly manner, and places it beforo the reader in its proper light. Hear him But I am told I can host prevent the Extension of Slavery by voting lor Gen.

Taylor. Whv? is he opposed it! No; but ha will not vetoit. Perhaps so. But he distiuctly refuses to say whether he will or not. Past all questions he is opposed to Free Soil, aud will use all his power aud patronage against it.

His neighbors in the South, who see liim iu hiH undress, say that they know lie is with them on this question. His friends at the North, ptactically admit it by bounding their hopes by the empty fact that he will not veto it. lie has recently invested 100,000 in sluvts he has accepted the Charleston nomination, made for iho avowed purpose of opposing it. The South made the Presidential nomiuatiou lo turn upon this question, and ho was selected, he great Ratification meeting held by his friends in Canal st. passed a resolution expressly repudiating this doctrine.

Mr. Webster says if ho thought Gen. Taylor opposed to Free Soil he would vote against him. On a candid examination of all tho evidence 1 am compelled lo tho belief that he is opposed to the doctrine of Free Soil, and will do all in his power to defeat it On Mr. Webster's authority, those who come to the name conclusion must vole agaiust Gen.

Taylor. On this point, the opiuious of all the other candidates, Mr. Clay, Gen. Scott, Judge McLean, were frankly and explicitly avowed. Why was Gcu.

Taylor excused? The North or the South is to be eheated. Which is most likly to be the victim Friends of Free Soil pause You ate about to be betiayed. When it is too late you will fiud that you have elected the only man who could have defeated your favorite object. Hereafter you cannot justify yourselves to your consciences or your God without requiring a more explicit declaration on this point from Gen. Taylor.

Whiff Opinions of the Taylor JParty. The whig party has ceased to exist, its ns.in ill rnn llnue to be used for a short time lo cajole those who are governed by sound wi.ib.out meaning; but its principles are abandoned openly denounced as impracticable and obsolete by those who have been most noisy in their vindication.

Benton has taken the people of California and New Mexico under his special protection, and has recently addressed a letter to Ibem, giving his advice as to the proper course to be pursued by them in the absence of all legislation by congress. The edicts promulgated by Gens. Mason and Kennedy, each of whom he calls an iguoramus, he says are null and void as far as they change the laws of the conquered country, for the laws of a conquered country remain in force uutil altered by the proper legislative authority aud no legislative authority has yet altered the laws wbich existed at the lime of their conquest. He advises them to meet in cou ventiou, and provido for themselves a Governor, Judges, some peace aud militia officers, and that is all they need. These Judges should administer the Roman civil law, and new codes should be avoided till introduced by permanent authority.

Elections, trial by jury, and courts of reconcii.ation, the latter for the termination of disputes without law, by the mediation of the judge, is easily engrafted on the Roman civil law. It exists in some of the northern European nations, Norway especially, uhere two thirds of all the disputes are settled in the court of Reconciliation." It ie founded upon the command in Scripture, agree with thine adversary quickly whilst thou art in the way with hiir." In regard to the settlement of laud, he regrets that congress passed no law upon Ihe subject, but advises the emigrants to settle upon the principle contained in the Oregon bill, which will no aoubt be the terms introduced into the territorial bill, for California and New Mexico. Imports which have paid no duties to the United Stales, fie ihiuks should pay lo the people of the new territories, moderately, so as not to repress trade, or burthen the consumers say twenty per centum on the value whence imported. Less, or even none, would be better. Upou the question of slavery be recommends total abstinence from its agitation, as when the territory becomes a state, the entire control of the subject will be in the people's hands.

Ledger. Very Fatiguing. A gentleman informs us that being on board a steamboat on tho Hudson a few days Biuce, a couple of Van Burehitee were, as usual, making a great noise and also. They thought every body must be on their Bide, and finally invited a gentleman who had a pencil and book to go with tbom and take a voto. But he declined though he lent them his pencil for the purpose After an absence of some time they came buck and handed him his poucil, when he askod them lo let him see their paper.

Bui they said ihey hadu't done much, they found it "so fatiguing They however, could not help showing their record when pressed to it. It had nearly ind equal number of Cass andTaylor votes upou it, but only two for Van Burcu Hence they got fatigued After that the mongrels were silent for the rest of the trim Pok Tel.

Trenton Daily Very Curious An elderly lady called with her son, a day or two since, at one of our fashionable dagurootypo establishments to have her likeness taken.

To night. We beg to direct the attention of all who feel an interest in having good democratic candidates for the various offices which we are to support at tho polls in November to the primary meetings which are called in the several wards of ho city this evening. We trust that there will be a full attendance, and that good selections will be made for delegates to the higher conventions. The several places of meeting will be found in the call of the standing committee. Uloxicaii Whigs.

VVc call attention to certain extracts, on our first jiage, from a speech delivered by Col. Wyncoop of the second Pennsylvania regiment of volunteers, to a democratic meeting in Easton. Col. Wyncoop went to Mexico a whig, but came homo a strong opponent of that party, and is now laboring forCass and Butler. His eyes were first opened to the lieauties of whiggery by the effect of the whig speeches, made in congress and elsewhere, in prolonging the war and encouraging the enemy to murder our soldiers who were doing ail in their lower to serve their country.

Col. Wyncoop states these circumstances stroug 1 and details the effect which they produced on his own inind aud on the minds of the soldiers generally. He thought that such treatment by his friends at home was far from what he had a right to expect. He saw that while he and the other volunteers were perilling their lives to put an end to the war, his whig friends were doing all in their power to make the Mexicans hold out to stimulate them to now efforts to make the war bloody and murderous. This soon sickened him of whiggery, aud when he found that the Mexicans were busily circulating these whig speeches, printing them in Spanish and sending them away to the province to encourage them in their work ol murder, he concluded that a party which would do such things were unworthy of his support and he determined to act with ihem no longer.

Setting on Eleeiions. Section 5 No person shall be permitted to vote at any election who shall make any bet or wager, or be directly or indirectly interested in any bet or wager depending upon the result of any election at which such persons may offer to vote. We apprehend that many of our citizens are not aware, Bays tho Courier, that tho law has beeu changed on the subject or betting on elections. We give. above the section of the law aa it Btands.

It will be perceived that making a bet or being interested in a bet, disqualifies a party from voting. will of course, lie a ground of challenge at the polls. Appointment. The appointment of Cornelius Bogardus, of this city, to the post made vacant by the death of Michael Huffman, has given high satisfaction to our people. Mr.

Bogardus is well known as a faithful officer, a man of ability and a gentleman. Tho True Sun well remarks, that he is an experienced business man, familiar with the decisions of the Treasury Department and courts of law upon the revenue laws of the country, while his former connection with the Revenue Department, as Assistant Collector for the Port of New York, has afforded him au opportunity of mastering the details the miuutia of the revenue sstsm, so necessary to be known by our Naval Officer. If prompt business habits aud thorough competency will insure for a public officer the confidence of the commuuity, without regard to political divisions among us, Mr. Bogardus is destined to be the most popular Naval Officer ever commissioned for this port. Greeley Answered.

Willis Hall.the companion and friend of Greeley, the friend of Clay and the ardent supporter of the old whig platform thus an. swers the dough Jaced editor ol the Tribuue in his recent tergiversation in iavor of the military chiel tain, the Louisiana slaveholder, and avaibiliiy. I am again told iliat it is useless, that Mr. Van. Buren cauuot be elected perhaps so.

If I nad selected my candidate lor Avaibiiity, I migot have pro. ferred some other. But voting for Mr. Vuu Buren is not therefore useless. It is material to the ulti.

male success of the principle of free Soil, that its friends should make the strongost possible demonstration at this time. Jf it id Jeeble and (toiled it will be despised by the South, uud ridiculed alike by the frieuds of Cass and of Taylor. If, on the other haud.it now shows an imposing front if its lion roar is heard through iho forest, the Sonth will not dare to demand that the new territories be admitted without rcstiiction, and if it docs, neither the Cass or party will dare to accede to their demand. Every voto strengthens the cause of Free Soil, whether Vun Buren is elected or not. The Clay to the Tailor whigs, Greeting The Clay Whig committee on dissolving their organization at the great Vauxhall Clay meeting the other night, resolved to resign their trust to huuds and hearts capable of deteimining for themselves their own present aud future course, uuawed by threats, uninfluenced by the seductions of power, and ready now and at all times to hurl defiance at the mischievous measures, which, through selfishness, seek to ally the old Whig party of principles to a man without principles." These Clay boys don't seem to admire their new father," Self condemned.

In the commencement of his Vauxhall speech, Botts said Thero is no Taylor ism in me and at the conclusion Botts declared that he should voto for Zachary Taylor." Thus did Bot: provo Botta a liar, by showing that while his tongue uttered frothy denunciations ol the Philadelphia nominee, Taylorism did lie at his heart's bottom Oh the devil a mouk would be, Bui the devil a monk was he." Architectural Mr. Botts says Henry Clay is tho builder up. of the Whig party." The fabric has toppled and tumbled and been rebuilt many times since its first ereclion, and has finally fallen to pieces, even to the very foundations, and buried its builder beneath tho ruins! Mr. Clay proved himself to be but an indiffsrent arohitaet..
