How TO GET RID OF AN INTEREST. The
division between the two branches OF the
Democracy of,N. York brings out strange stories
in disparagement Of each. The Canal Board
belong to the Wright section; of course they
make no appointments from the Argus or " Hunker
Democrats" and at their February meeting they
took care to remove every man, who in this
tremendous family quarrel had not sided with
themselves. They had also to act upon the case
Of one, whose shade OF Democracy corresponded
with theirs, but who, according to the statute had
forfeited his Office, by being a proprietor Of

rid Of his interest therein, or he could not be re-

burnt down, and the next day an affidavit TO that
effect was presented to the Board. and he was
re-appointed.
