CLEARING UP.-The doubts and anxieties
concerning the acceptance of the Collec-
torship by Mr.. Dickinson seem to be clear
ing up. The general opinion is that he will
face the music. Schell has written to him,
and many others of the hard shells have
written to him, and some of them, we
learn, have gone up to Binghamton to see
him. and insist on his acceptance, for the sake
of the hard shells-for the sake of the admins
tration and the democratic party generally.
Mr.. Dickinson must accept There is no escape
for him; and we don't think he wants to escape
for the office is worth something. Upon deli.
berate view, therefore. of the whole ground
fore and aft. we think he will accept, and we
think the Union is safe.
