SAN Francisco ELEcT1oN.-The elec.

SAN FRANcIsco ELEcTIoN.-The elec-
ton of Mr.. Nal oney to the Senate in the
place of Samuel Brannan resigned. is an
uniquivocal proof that the people of that
city favor the election of United States
Senator at the next session Of the Legis-
lature, and that they prefer Mr.. Broderick
to any other aspirant. Mr.. Mahcney
stated in the convention that nominated
him that he was in favor of both these
propositions Mr.. Farwell, his whig op-
ponent, on the contrary expressed himself,
in communication in the Evening News,
opposed TO the election this winter. Mr..
Mahoney received a majority of nearly
1900, while Mr.. Farwell's vote was short
of 1000 all told. We believe this COM
munieation of Mr.. Farwell drew off from
him considerable wing strength, of those
no way open for the election of whg,
and who prefer Mr. Broderick to any other
democrat, but who think his chances
depend in considerable measure on the
election taking place this year. Mr.. Far
well is a gentleman of excellent character,
but is quite young, and had hardly the
prestige of leadership necessary for success.
This election will act with force upon
the Legislature, and is probably the most
fortunate thing for Mr.. Broderick that
could have happened. We consider his
chances growing better.
