New York State Democratic Convention.

Albany, N. Y., Feb, 1.
--The State Democratic Convention assembled here yesterday. The Committee on Resolutions agreed to report to-day a series entirely free from anything of a partisan character, opposing coercion, favoring the Crittenden Compromise, exhorting all men to unite with them on submitting that compromise to a vote of the people of the State, exhorting the seceding States to refrain from any act of aggression, or any course calculated to plunge the nation into civil war, and asking the non-seceding slave States to use their influence with their Southern brethren to that end.
