DEAR SIR:-
FROM present appearances it may possibly be in
ferred that on Saturday the two houses of the
Legislature will go into the nomination of u
.. Senators. Such appears to be the impression at
this moment. Your Navy Agent, Mr.. Suydam, IL
here,a 1t is whispered that he came post-haste
from Washington, for the purpose Of adding his
powerful influence to that already in motion to se-
cure, if possible, the election OF Messrs Dickinson
and Foster. To the permanent seats Of these
gentlemen has been the active, unremitted business
of many worthy gentlemen attached to the con-
sentative branch of the Democratic family
We do not mean to say that there is any
such thing AZ bargain or sale in the premises, but
it may be imagined that should these genlemen
be secured in their places, they would hardly be
so ungratefu as not to vote for the confirmation Of
certain other gentlemen wh6 have aided them by
every means IN their power. legal gentleman
OF your city, who is connected with Senator Eos
ter, has been operating in his behalf for some time
but with Indifferent success. M
It Is also rumored that Mr.. Slamm, of your city,
has recently made his appearance here as an adyo.

they are here designated. Every body keeps

wholly uncertain whether or not the present Sena-
nenty. By Saturday next Il may, pe I be-
decided; and upon this decision many persons are
leaning with hope and expectation.
Uneasy lies the head that wears crown, said
Shakespeare, and perhaps Gov. Wright does not say
the same when no one can over-hear him. Were
it possible for him to be profane or to speak after
the manner of men, should he ever swear, now is
the time when he is called upon to let fly the oaths
fast and thick and he would doubtless do so, if
any good might be expected from such ebulli-
tion. 1t may be that he is fond OF such besieged

man to put on and put off crowd of hungry
wolves-to sway the mass as he will, to coax and
wheedle and never say nay to any man? Surelyit
is q task OF no ordinary nature.
The Senate has this day been instructed, not to
say amused, BY the delivery Of an Grafton about
the stripes and stars, the glorious, patrimony Of
Americans, Texas, Oregon, and all sorts of such
matters, delivered by Senator Clark-not Lott

preparation, was accustomed by the introduction Of
agitation. We ego for'' Texas-but can The
Legislature OF New York annex or re annex as the
case may strike the fancy-Texas or any other
country country 10 the Union L is the province OF

Senator Clark and every. other OF his colleagues

your correspondent. A very responsible and
pious gentleman opened the Assembly with
