DEAR Sm,-
This Cody city is rapidly filling up with Senators,
Assembymen, lobby-mem5ers, and Office seekers.
The latter bear to the Offices about the proportion Of
ten TO one, and the way they pull and haul our
honorable Legislators, is a caution to all "would
be-" Lawmakers. For the Office of Clerk TO the
Senate, there are seven candidates, among whom
the most prominent are Seger, formerly Senator
and Clerk of the Assembly; Ellwood, from Roches.
ter; SANFORD, from New-York, who was defeated
by Bishop Hughes; and Gafney, of Albany. On
the Of services rendered. the latter is clearly
tliled 10 it, for he has for years been Of the
ablest and most interchangeable of the Democratic
orators; but the party does not always consider
themselves bound to reward faithful servant On
the contrary, il is frequently the that alous,
active man, is thrust aside; and feeble, Inefficient
party hack put in his place. Thus, in the second
Senatorial District last fall the two active candidates
who had been always true and always laborina,w
rejected, and an old drone who never did any thing
for the pary-who is TOO lazy TO do more than say
"aye," and "no," was put in nomination and now
is Senator Of this State, wihou, the trouble Of
asking for it, Mr. Gafiney. therefore, stands very
poor chance. Seger is in more favorable post on;
he is one of the old-schoo-hc was Senaic. IN the
pamy days of the " old regency" and as that party
is about to be reinsaed, it need not surprise you il
Seper is C rt Of the Senate.
LewsS. Chaified George X. Davis, and Charles

PuLApELPnIA, Jan. 4, 1871
The chief topics Of conversation here to-day are,
"What will the Governor sayl What will be the
result of yesterdays United States Bank meeting,
on the assets of that institution How much lower
will the regulators meeting carry State stocks p
These are all exciting topics, being each in some
way or other connected with some strong interest.
The message is go here that think it will be
useless to speculate on that and as have not much
faith in the source so have but little confidence in
any of the conclusions that may be arrived at in it,
The administration of Pennsylvania has been a
elbow hot and cold" of affair for the past several
years. The chair of State has not once been filled
by really great man within twenty years, to my
knowledge. There will probably be some empty
words about the resumption, in the coming docu-
ment, and no little bombast the subject of Estate
faith" which is almost hourly violated, in hearing
of the Governor, 10 the laborer, that Mr.. Biddle's
principle, OF "our first duty being to foreigners,
may be observed
though not in favor of the Biddle ticket for Directors,
i is believed will have rather conservative in
tuence on the affairs and management Of the insil
tuition. This, however, will alone be determined
by time. The detailed report, which was submitted
and adopted, will be published in book form, and
will be very voluminous at that, though much re
greet to state now that fear we shall not yet be- able
TO reach the enormities there concealed, as the
whole hasl been submitted to committee for prun-
ing So that the most that can be looked or hoped
for is fraud and corruption whitewashed.
The reputation meeting, or some other influence,
has, within many days. carried State stocks down
50 per share and IT. IL the same time TO come they
do not experience as equally great decline, you
may set me down prophet. The great cement
that bound the community together was first dlssl-
paed by the countenance that was lent to he,Banks,
in their violation If every moral obligation, by sus-
pending the payment of their promises.
The transactions in stocks to-day were light, at a
further falling of in prices All OF them seem to be
in rapid chase to reach the bottom of the gamut.
