My DEAR SIR -
The Irish Repealers are driving successful bust
ness here at present.. They extort heavy sums OF
money from politicians of all classes. The near
ness of the election is thus taken advantage Of for
member of any standing in either party, who de-
cllnes contributing to the repeal fuad, is met
with irowns and threatenings indicative Of retala
ton at the polls Public meetings are held two
three times week for the purpose of making col
ectlons; and if sums, equal to expectation, are not
realized there, then ward and district wardens are
directed to go into the houses and offices of our clti
zens, and into the public streets, to solicit money
for OConnell and the repeaers OF the Emerald Isle
They are very active at present, and VIII continue
so, until after the election 1t seems to me perfect

a separation of the Union may be effected. 1t ne

pathy is entirely misdirected
The Wing party here Is without q head or leader
in whom they can confide. They are hoping and
praying for the return OF Thurow by the next arri-
val from Europe. The present proprietors OF the
Evening Journal are extremely DESTROYS for his re-
| turn to the chair editorial. The vanity and imbe-
cility OF King and the constant blunders of
accident maker Hill, has rendered the Jour
nal any thing but what it was under
the eye and pen, of Weed. The pre-
sent proprietors OF that establishment have in
volved themselves and their friends very heavily IN
it's purchase, with the expectation that Mr. Weed
would re-assume his editorial station But as he is
either to be associated with the New York Tribune,
paper, question very much whether the Journal
will retain that character, ability, and confidence
in the wing party which it has heretofore sustained.
The wings here are boasting OF majority in the
next House OF Assembly, and some are even so
sanguine, that they have offered pretty heavy bets.
Rather venturesome, should think. They count
upon the New York delegation as being sure; and
