Things in Albany.
From our regular Correspondent.

ALBANY, March 6, 1913
have to chronicle another OF the movements OF
the cold White Horse" in relation to- your City
His neigh is Judicial one, this hitch. The nonl-
nation of LEWIS SANFORD for Assistant Vice
Chancellor rice MURRAY HorraAs, was sent IN
to the Senate today. Also the nomination for re-
appointment of ali the present Judges of the Su-
perior Court and the Court of Common Pleas.
No other nominations for your CRY were made,
that can learn. Of the fitness of these judicial
appointments, you are the better jj;ldge.
No ppJlic business of Importance has been trans
1ctso since my last. The whole of yesterday in
the seaa,e and of to-day in the House, were spent
in the discussion of resolution to instruct Con-
gress, (Which iourns to-morro.} vote to refund
the fine of Gen. JAcsscS
The proceedings in the Assembly TO-DAY we're
worthy Of the psimeval days of The Gas-!aw. But
good riddance to this sos. ridiculous of ali hum
bugs If the majority suppose they have CARED
TO themselves any additional geographically or
otheruise-let them en;oyit. hepe never to see
the day when shall be compelled thus to be SO
ab:ectly subservient at the footstool of party.
The Senate spent this entire day in the discus
sion of a petition from Herktmer county for an 10
month, Stay Law The debate was piqHant and
interesting, and at one time came very near being
personsl between Mcssrs FosrEK and LA'sREScE,
two brethren of The DernocraSy-thoush not mem
bers OF the ssme di9sion--ihe former being an
Ultra Bank Conservative, and the latter Z" Barn
burner of the most approved sort. 1t all, how
ever, ended in smoke. The principle involved in
the petition was one OF Importance, and in its de-
cision the Senate has done that which roneess
honor upon its members, end Upon the Empire
State. The prayer Of the petition denied,
without even the formallty of reference, by the
strong vote of 25 TO ? and even those two avowed
themselves utterly opposed to the principle OF stay
laws, although they disaPProved such summary
disposition Of the matter. New-York has, there
FORE at the outset, taken the bold and noble stand,
not even 10 tolerate the consideration of a s,oi, law
for day. Long may she occupy that high posi-
tion
The New York and Erie Railroad has quietly
slept for the last few days. II WILL however come
up to- morrow, and will, probably, be disposed OF
this week. SO far as the Senate is concerned. But
i, is hard for Yankee, (und claim tull right
to that tle), to guess in relation to the probable
speed Of Locofoco Legislature Thus far they
have, apparently, been striving to solve that old
problem concerning the progress of the frog in the
well-which jumped up taco feet in the day time,
and fell back three at night
The Bank Commissioners bill excites an inte-
resting discussion. 1t grows richer and richer
day by day. The Wings sit quietly by, and keep
the tally. The fight is most animating. The
"barn-burner' twits the " conservative" with an
aband onment of The Democracy. The "conser-
va,ye" retorts and will have none of the pig
ringers subterraaeanism." His ia after the most
approved model of the Albany regency, and so he
goes for the Banks, in whichhe or the regency can
have plum Success to the Kilkenny fight:
fear me that the Magcian's oil has lost its
power The Democracy" will .ot be quiet.
The mu,terngs of that Volcano, of which | spoke
in my first, become daily more and more distinct.
The eruption tcM come. Mark my prediction.
If mistake not most grievously, it will come in
form that will astonish e"en you accustomed as
you have been to astounding developements"
heretofore. But nous oerrons!!
The deal!s of ROBERT HUNTER one of the very
bes, men of whom we could boast has thrown =
gloom over our city. You knew him well, and
knowing his worth you can appreciate our loss
| He has left vod in our midst, not easily hlled.
| His remains will be taken to Rochester for inter-
ment. Yours, &C. WATCHTowER.
