TAN.IANY IN A SNAEL.

The so.eal!ed Democratic party in this City aud
state TO be in rather discOrdant condition Just
now, and every event adds to the perplexity. The
failure of the President to satisfy temporarily
appease either the Hard the Soft faction and his
peculiar craftsmanship in other respects has brought
both sections still further the road of doubt and
political desperation. To be sure, the Softs have
managed to get nearly all the Offices, and they make
believe that they are very jolly; but the joy is only
kn deep. ard the laugh is merely conyulsve action
induced by monthly drafts upon the Treasury. The
latest ieud arises from the appointment of new
United States District Attorney. And by the way.
Charles O'Conor never did a more wickedy bitter
thing than when LIE dropped his bone Of office for the
fractured party to grow We learn that he was
seen the other day hurrying along BY street with
broad snd deep grin upon his usually pas.ye features
evidently enjoying the dire confusion he had made
The rumor most generally believed with regard to
Mr. O'Conor successor was that Mr. Westbrooh a
member of Congress up the Hudson, would get the
tfce d reward for his vote for the Nebrask bill;
but the Administration found it convenient not to
keep Mr.. Pierces promise. SO, siter playing fast
and loose few weeks with WestbrooA. he wss
whistled down the wind, and Mr.. Lorenzo 3. Shep-

Of the soest species, and chief speaker and fgeman
under Rynders at the only pro-Slavery Nebraska
meeting held in the northern States was for while
the favored candidate, backed according to report
by Secretary Marcy snd considered as good as in
susurated by all his friends in the City. But
when Shepard had become pretty well intoxicsted
with false hope, already in Imagination graspns the
emouments Of Office, Mr.. Pierce changes his mind
sgain and pops John McKeon into the plaee-s case
hardened Adamsntine, and ardent. uncompromis-
ing, untiring enemy Of the Administration This was
perec< eS and wormwood to the faithful-s bitterer
pin io, Marcy, Shepard and Rynders than John P.
Hale would have been. Consequently rather sgta-
ted and acrimonious state Of mind has prevailed in the
camp Of the Softs.
