NEW YORK WEBSTER MEETING
Great Whig Meeting - The hall of this Gentleman's friends was yesterday evening thrown open in the most enthusiastic manner. From six to eight thousand persons attended - we should judge that not one fifth that attended were able to gain admittance at 7 o'clock. The Great Meeting was again overflowing. Benjamin Strong took the chair; did try to hear but found unable to hear what was going on above. Organized below, at which Abr. G. Thompson presided. The Great Meeting was addressed by Chandler, Esq., Isaac S. Hone, Hugh Maxwell, S. A. Foot, and James Watson Webb. - The several speeches were most animating and were cheered and applauded throughout; all the speakers spoke with much patriotism. Judge White and Gen. Harrison came out decidedly in favor of Daniel Webster, as the suitable individual to be supported for the next President. We have attended at the principal meetings for the last thirty years, and can say without fear of contradiction, that it was one of the greatest and most respectable assemblages of citizens ever held; and one might feel the enthusiasm as could not be surpassed. The friends of Daniel Webster have, on this occasion, had a most triumphant meeting, one alike honorable to the individual named and themselves. - New York Daily Advertiser.

The friends of Mr. Webster assembled last night, in great numbers, at Mason's Hall. It was something like the meetings held there in 1831, and was a conclusive evidence that a determined resistance to oppression and misrule, and an energetic attempt to preserve the Constitution and Laws, will be resisted no more, and as far as union and strength can go, will be carried out in the forthcoming struggle. The friends of Judge White and Gen. Harrison were also present; and the characters of the presiding officers, the speakers, the executive committee, and the meeting at large, are guarantees for the accomplishment of the great object in view - which is to support Daniel Webster, but to unite on the strongest candidate opposed to the person whom General Jackson has appointed his successor to office. Without this final object, nothing of course, can be accomplished. The Whig party cut up in detail, divided and subdivided among several candidates, must make a feeble resistance; but running one electoral ticket in each State, opposed to Mr. Van Buren, the entire opposition will be united and triumphant; and we everywhere hear this proposition, to run one opposition ticket, approved and sanctioned. - N.
