How much good win be effected is yet 10 be seen;
but as the members have On. their foot in II, they
can't carry ths joke too far" The association sd-
journed sine de- and its life death ia in the hands
Of It's originator. Messrs. Colbarn and Holly.
The rival Tammany committees have finally
agreed TO disagree. and last night when it became
known that all negotiations had failed. the Wilson
Small organization issued a call for primary cleo
ton on Saturday evening to choose delegates to the
Democratic State Convention, which asse mbles at
Syracuse on the 10th inst. The Cooper primary
elections are held tonight; so two delegations will
be chosen. IT may be tina. at the eleventh hour
some compromise may be patched up and the city
democracy present united front to the democracy
of the State. While the leaders are qua,elling the
masses are moving, and are evidently animated by
the right spirit. Las. night most enthusiastic re-
peal meeting was held in the Fourth ward, in which
some four thousand persons participated.
We have received copy of the correspondence
which has passed between ex-Judge Whiting and
Mayor Wood respecting the LoSber claim against
the city. The ex.Judge manifests lively interest
for the city treasury, the ruined state
OF our public credit, and predicts wide spread dis
ast6r from the "wanton. wicked waste of public
property" The Mayor approves Of the steps taken
to institute proceedings to test not only the title but
she circumstances uuter which the purchase of Mr..
Lo@ber WIS made. The Mayor gives wholesome
philippe TO Comptroller Flsgg, who, he says, would
save much Of the eUbarrassments, losses and tiga-
ton 10 which the city is continually subjected If "the
executive head of the city was recognised by Slr.
Flsgg" In conclusion, the Mayor says, in his letter
TO Mr. Whiting, that he shall require to be well
satisfied not only as to the honesty and justice but
10 the legality of the proposed proceedings before
he becomes a party to them, with persons liable
TO such eccentricties Of disposition and ideas of
official duty" Judge Writings rejoinder Is dashed
with "a little bitters"
