You will observe that have placed "hatred of
Zen Wilson" as an element ON both sides of the
question / would not have you infer that the
whole people Of the State are governed by this feel
ing Of hostility that there is any probability that,
rampant as it now is, il will permanently succeed in
oyerthrowing him. 1t has long ago been noticed
that there is great deal of vitality in Gen. Wilson.
There bas been within few days general yield
ing on the part Of leading Republicans, whe had not
before committed themselves in favor of Mr. Banks.
Letters appeared on Saturday from +. r. Hoar
and r. Fl. Dana, jr., and on Saturday night
Charles T. Adams spoke at Quincy, express
Ing great admiration for Mr.. Banks, and indicating
hE willingness to meet the Americans half way.
litter has also appeared, purporliog TO be from Mr.
Sumner, but some of that gentleman sdrends ex-
press doubts as to its genuneness. Gen. Wilson,
however, informs me that he received letter from
Mr.. Sumner dated in August, expressing great in
terest In the election of Mr.. Banks. Under this
demonstrstiye pressure from leading men, the
"Straieht Republican" vote is likely to be pretty
small
We shall soon be able TO see whether the new
method of electng Senator'S and Representatives Is
working well or ILL., There are some good indlca-
tons and some bad Ones Mr.. George Lunt was
candidate before the Gardner caucus in Ward Four
in this city the other evening for Representative 10
The General Court, and was very badly beaten, re-
ceiyng only sertnteen votes This ID indeed cneer-
inQ sien of the times. The Americans of that
Ward could vote for Gardner, aud go so far as
10 nominate Mr.. +. d. Stedman, one Of the most
obnoxious of GardDers retaners, but were not quite
ready to go for Lunt Five or SIX years hence they
NAV be reduced to such n condition that he will be
acceptable but not now. Not succeeding IN his at
tempt 10 obtain the American nomination, Lunt has
By some means got bis name placed upon an indie
PENDENT ticket in company with George -. upon,
enc of the most respectable men Of the city. Nj
Upton, however, at the very earliest opportunity
issued card, withdrawing his name from the can
mss. Mr.. Lunt's competitor at the caucus have
referred to, was Francis Milliken, the keeper Of
cheap eating house upon Washington street: 1t is
possible that his success over Mr. Lunt was in some
sort popular demonstration against high and IN
favor Of cheap, living-Mr. Lunt being boarder at
the fremont House. Mr.. Emerson says " de
that feeds men seryeth. few" but Milken has
all along served great many people daily; at the
caucus he served out Mr.. Lunt, and understand
the prospect is that be will have an opportunity to
serve the people of Ward Four in the General Court.
If Mr.. Lunt's Independent dodge does not an
swer his purpose, he can resume his devotion to
bellies. ettres and poetry. A ballad from his pea on
the subject of "Miiiiken and has Diner, would be
an acceptable feature in the next Atlantic Monthly.
