WIG PRIMARY ELECTIONS, GOOD. BAD
AND DIs1RAcEFUL.-The primary meetings of the
Wing party of this City hell yesterday. at all
sorts Of hours from sunrise to p w., and with all
sorts Of results. We are not among those who claim
that our party Is free from every sort Of sin, and
We don't intend to blink the truth the tenth part
Of a halr to please anybody. We shall give, as accu-
ratey as possible the facts of the case without re-
gard to the pedal maize of partisans of any sort
FIRST Ward-The election was held early though
as the Ward Committee did not advertise II, we can
not tell the hour All passed off quietly there were
two tickets, but the contest slight and the one
headed by White. Dyott and Buckham for the judi
ciary Convention was chosen by a large majority.
Scoond Ward.-GIere the polls were open from u TO
81. NJ There WAS but ticket, and no sort OF
noise or disturbance In fifteen minutes after the
close OF the poll everybody had departed, and no
sign except useless ballots indicated that there had
been an election
Third Ward-Here there Was no contest-the StIr
ieyant and Benson ticket was the only in print.
The polls were open from 3 to O'Clock p. VI. All
passed oil quietly aud satisfactorily.
Fourth WGrd-ln this Ward there was only one
tcket-the great majority of the Opposition leaves
the matter so hopelessy against us that personal
ambition cannot find room here for expansion.
FiGh Ward.-IIere.is the first black spot. Though
there was no absolute hndrance 70 voting, there
was a disgraceful disturbance around the poll a
party of Young vagabonds of the " Short Boy pat
tern descended from their dens IN the Eighth Ward
and allied themselves TO few loaferS in the Fifth and
for time they PLAYED their own game. The poll
was open only two hours-frOm IL to PM. Before
halEpast one, the Police had bagged half-a-dO2en OF
these fellows, and brought them up 10 the Station
house. Here an Alderman soon appeared, and after
a stTng of good advice, sort of pearls eforeswne
affair the worthy CITY father discharged the whole
lot We regret that our reporter did not get the name
OF this honorable Alderman so that We might nave
assisted him the notorlety which he sought There
were two tickets IN the Ward, and there will be
question as to the legality Of the election OF either.
Tie FIUh Warders feel rather indignant that they
should be favored with the company of the floating
merconarios Of other sections, believing that they
have too many Of that sort at home.
Strfh Rard.--1ho poll> were open less than an
hour. and all went of quietly. The fellows who
cid up the Primary arrangement at the Sixth Ward
Hotel on Tuesday OF last week were early ~ the
market. but they didn't get bid, and most Of them
were seeking OF had found sale elsewhere. The
Sixth Ward deserves commentator.
Serenfh Ward-Pols open al hour or two IN the
evening We were not present, but are assured that
ali went of with quIetness, and without contest
Only one ticket was IN the field.
Efghth WGra.-It Is seldom that record an cleo
ton Of any sort or Of any pary-eyen the absolute
legal State olection-in this Ward, without being
called upon to denounce the rufFilny behavior OF
the Short Boy gang, whose unla wul and brutal per-
formances have for years been burning disgrace TO
this especial section Of our City, BY unnecessary
custom the party hold eight polls one IN each Dis
trci Of the Ward thus separating and weakening
their strength. Yesterday by some singular policy,
the polls were opened about sunrise and closed at
O'Clock Ifbv this they expected TO steal march upon
the nyrmidons OF RowdyIsm they were mistaken.
That sort OF scamps never sleep when honest men
do and of course they were wide awake. They went
from pou to poll, broke up the proceedings, abused
peaceable citizens and deed arrest. Al Dlstrlc.
the gang drove out the Inspectors, seized the boxes
appointed their own Inspectors" and began TO
thrust In ballots by the handful. When they had
PLAYED out their game, the orderly citizens resumed
their business and elected their ticket. At about half
the polls N the Eighth WaTd the Short Boy rascals
spread terror and disgrace al the other half things
were Ctlfy done. We need not state the well known
fact thu, these rowdies really OF the Opposition
marty almost 10 a man, though their extremely mer
camille character render them all things 10 al men.
