The fret on III. foregoing list, Mr. & J. Richardson, is
. whig, and occupies very moderate position poH
tcian lacking OF the essential republics OF that
charsoterjud AID discretion. The ,esoud, Mr. r.
u. sherman, was formerly vhg, and Is hard work
ing and efhcsent politician. Mr., o. r. hstson svows
himself 10 be In favor OF Hunt 10 complimentary way
but believes tina, King will be elected.
TIE following Senators were formerly democrats and
are more kely from their suieceden,, to vote tor
pubhcans who al one time we're members Of the same
party with themselves rather than with those OF the
opposite political faith, the wings james Rider, Js
maics, Queens county, First district Edward H. Maiden,

The great fight 10 between ward Hun, end Preston
King the part Of the republicans The democrats are
working In their own way quietly The main object
IL 70 overthrow Preston King, Who sort Of bargain
and corruption candidate arrangement having been
made with him long time ago, TIA, he would Il 70 up
his claims 10 certain Office he would get tni, Those
who are opposed 70 him have taken up wri Haut as
their candidate. The result probably will be that the
ash will become 30 bitter between these t~o section. Of
the republican party, 70 obse them fall back upon
third man nom some other part Of tho sre lrihey
do this they will undoubtedly do much better han they
take either OF those two.
The vote in the senate is remarkably Close showing 80
II dots bare republican majority. Five Of these. ss has
been stated, formerly democrats, snd likely 10
keep their old poca predIectons Ia the selection OF
o candidate.
