contested. viz the Ivth, Vth and With. lou may
as well consider the lVfh and Vth doubtful for
though believe the Republicans will carry both,
the fact Is by no means certain. The contest re-
sembles that which was fought IN l-J6. la that
year there were three candidates running IN No.
IV. and only two in No. Y. Such is the now.
. The Americans found themselys unable 70 nomi-
nate man in No. v to take Mr.. Fearings place.
One-third Of their delegates intended 70 vote for
Mr.. Heard: another third for Mr. Burlngame,
and another third honestly desired 10 make nonl-
nation but were unable 10 effect their purpose.
Mr.. +. u. Stedman, noisy political oaier, who
was turned out of Office by Gov. Banks, declared
himself in favor Of Heard. He said he had con-
yersation with Heard, who declared himself sound
on the Tariff Likely enough he satisfied him that
he was also genuine and intense Native, one who,
though surrounded by lrishmen, and dependent on
them for three-quarters of his votes, would put
none but Americans on guard" Heard runs no
risk in pledging himself TO such men as Stedman.
His Native record might be black that of
Jonathan Pierce, the fellow who convicted
of being engaged ia the Convent riot. and the Irish
would vote tor hin. Fidelity to Slavery is all they
require. In l-J6 they voted for William Appleton,
who was q Fillmore Elector, and they would look
we'll now Objecting 10 their candidate hob-n0bbing
with Henry j. Gardner and Frank Stedman. 1t is
currently reported that the Ex-Governor has made
up his mind 90 for Heard, and that he will speak
on Thursday night at a meeting of National mel"
in Faneuil Hall. Certainly, we who for the last
four years have been prOcalmlng, III face Of much
opposition, that Gardner was humbug and hypO-
crite can have no objection 10 his coming out pub
licly and proving our words true
So there will be "a straight heat" between Bur-
lingame and Heard, and few no scattering votes.
There are no data for a satisfactory guess to the
result On the one hand it may be said that
Burlingame. in time of great enthusiasm for
himself and Fremont, beat Appleton only SO votes;
that the vote for Beach and Gardner last year
ceeded the vote for Banks in bis District several
thousand, and that Beach and Gardner both go for
his opponent. On the other hand it may be said
that the Fillmore party of 1856, which went for
Appleton, and the Gardner party of 1-57, which
constituted the largest part of the opposition to
Banks, are both broken To pieces and that the
voters cannot be made to work with the
Irish; that Appleton, being an old Whi9, was
q much more available man than Heard; that
the American leaders must see, by the results of
recent elections, that the Republican party is likely
to carry the country in I-6O aud that that party
furnishes the only or the best market for the
commodities they have rs dispose of; that the
Tariff feeling will help Mr.. Burlingame and that
the divisions in the Democratic party viii nJure
Heard. Please strike the balance for yourselves,
wait patiently for telegraph particulars about y
o'clock next Tuesday evening.
The WITH District is about as much in the fog.
One man says the contest is between Rice and
Thompson; another says that Thompson is no.
where: another says he is gaining fast; another
SAWS Waldron will be elected if the Republicans
not careful think Mr. Rice's popularity among
the old Wings and citizens generally" will give
him the victory.
Mr. Otis Z. Lord, who has received an inde-
pendent nomination in No. VI, talks as If he had
been for the last four years Wing the mild and
progressive type instead Of being the most malg-
nant old Hunker in Essex County. He made a
speech al Salem last Saturday, in which he took
ground against Squatter Sovereignty, and the Dred
Scott decision. and the extension OF Slavery. He
shrewdly made use of Eli Thayer's unwarranted
and impudent intrusion of Squatter Sovereignty
into the Republican platform or party, and really
made good point of II against the Re
publicans Mr.. Lord is an able man, but
when he professes TO have any sympathy with the
Anti Slavery side, he Is guilty of deception. can
remember when, i'll lc56, the venerable JOSIAH
Quincy made an Anti-Sayery speech before the
Wing State Convention, Lord came on in the after
noon and grossly insulted him therefor. From
that time to this he has been Wing of The Boston
Courier sort. He has been as seryile as Lunt him
self; and servty is greater ofense in him than
in Lunt, for he is capable of independence. He
is man of the world. and his Hunkerism
is the result of political hatred and revenge;
while Lunt's comes from natural inability
TO take liberal view of any subject.
