THE mAYORALTY.

Republicans ace personally urged by the arstc-
cratic branch of the Tammany Democracy (the
same yeracious gentlemen who recently manipu-
lated Forbes) to support Mr. Hayemeyer, and these
solicitations are rot without effect Some consider
atoms on the other side ought to be constantly kept
in mind by Republicans and other honest citizens:
First Mr. Hsyrmeyer, two years ago. and again
within q few days, refused to accept any nomina-
ton for the Mayoralty declaring over his own
sgr AZURE, that it was wholly out of the question
that be should take the Office of Mayor. Yet two
day0 after be gets the Tammany nomination he ac-
cepts it. This proves conclusively that Dir. Have
meyer is sR5strrient TO the behests Of TammGny Hail.
Seeondis Before Mr.. lIavemeyer had accepted
the nomination of Tammany Hall, Mr.. Opdyke had
publicly accepted the Republican nominations there
FORE when the Tammany men excuse themselves
for not supporting Opdyke, the pretense that he
was nominated after Havemeyer, they are hypo-
critical Their professedly reluctant candidate, if
he only desired TO defeat Wood, had an excellent
opportunity TO advise Tammany to support Opdyke
whore private character and capacity are not called
in question by Hoyemeyer or any other Democrat
But this did not suit the reluctant Mr.. Havemeyer
With full knowledge that Opdyke had accepted the
Republican nomination. he sent bis letter accepting
that of Tammany. He was not so reluctant nor
did be feel so much concerned for the city as to be
induced to use his influence for an honest and able
man already nominated by large and respectable
party Here again sticks out The TGrzzany partisan
Thirdly: Tsmmany Hall nominated Havemeyer
without saying "by your leave" to any other party
No other party's sympathy was invoked, and no
attempt was made to induce other nominsting con-
yentions TO come into the support Of Hsyemeyer
He was nominated as the Tsmmsny candidate,
pure and simple, and is placarded about town as the
rtgzi0r Democratic candidate-no more, no less
yet the so-caled respectable Democrats are al agape
with sstouishment and burning with indignation
because the Republican party Will not support the
Tammany candidate and desert the Republican
nominee They lad calculated to eOeree the ira
duced, yilli6ed, and prosecuted Republicans into
ths support Of the regular Tammany candidate, BY
crying out that the city was in danger! II amazes
them to be told that the remedy is in their own

DIVIDE AND CONQUER

1t is well known to the people Of this City that
George Law is interested in large number Of
spcculations in which the interests of the City are
involved He has at all times q large stake pend
ing on the result Of our Charter elections. 1t is
equally well known that Oliver Charisk is his
rght-hand man, in fact one of bis Generals. Know
ing that The interests of Messrs. Law and Chariick
are identical how are We 10 account for their pres
ent seeming opposition in the matter Of the May
orally
Law boldly goes bis pile on the election of Fer
nando Wood, and n good round sum il is that he
contributes 10 the Wood fund. Chariick enlists
under the Havemeyer banner, and is one Of the
most active agents in trying 10 collect money from
the Fifth Avenue Democracy and 6sby Republicans
on the pretense of saving the City from Wood.
Divide and conquer" has always been the
motto Of Fernando Wood and his friends. They
saw, as soon as Opdyke was put in the field, that
snless something was done to divide and distract
the respectable vote of the Opposition, Opdyke
must be elected over Wood. They knew that
Wood was sure TO get large majority of the Dem
ocraic vote, and that, consequently, there was no
danger of Havemeyers election. Hence Charlick
was sent out 10 turn the batteries of one class Of
the respectable voters against another, BY getting
them to contribute THEN money and their influence
ostensibly to defeat Fernando Wood, but in reality
to prevent the election Of Opdyks. What pity it
is that our moneyed men will never learn wisdom
that they viii, year after year, allow themselves to
be used to accomplish the very thing they desire
TO syoid How Law and Charlck and Wood must

AGRICULTURAL INSTRUCTION.

We would call the earnest attention OF all inter-
ested in Agricultural Progress to the prospectus OF
a course of Practical Lectures on Agriculture and
Horticulture, TO be given at Yale College, New
Haven, throughout the month of February next.
Three Lectures will be given each day, with dis
cusslon at the close of each; sothat the whole num-
Der of Lectures will be about eighty, and their total
cost $40. Among the lecturers engaged, beside the
Yale Professors, are Marshall p Wilder Cassius
NJ. Clay, John Stanton Gould, Fl. f. French. L.
Barry (of Rochester,, c. w. Grant (of Newburgh),
and Others known as successful growers of Fruit,
Grapes, Cattle, experienced in draining, &C., &c.
We do hope that goodly number of the young
men of this State as well as of New-England will
attend these Lectures; and if some of the young
Yankees who find their facilities for selling horn
hnts and Eastwood pumpkin seeds at the South
rather circumscrbed this Winter, should thereupon
be moved to stay at home and study Agriculture,
We think they will have no reason to regret the
hange.

Should Fernando Wood be the next Mayor Of
New-York, where will be the blame
1t will rest on the leaders of the Tammany Dem
ocracy, who would not allow but repealed and pre-
vented any combination of those opposed to Wood.
1t will rest on William +. Hayemeyer, who
would not be the candidate of the People, but was
ready to lend himself to the purposes of corrupt
and contemplate faction.
1t will rest on those lukewarm and weakened
Republicans who fail to stand up for their principles
and the unexceptionable candidate of their party.
1t will rest on those voters and taxpayers of no
party, who would not perceive the magnitude of the
danger, or who FILTERED away their strength on
hopeless and useless candidates.
Fellow citizens will you have an honest, able,
and incorruptible man to administer the City Gov
eminent Support GEORGE 0PDYKE. VIII you
have a dangerous and unprincipled demagogue 7
Support Fernando Wood. Between these two lies
your choice Remember that whoever votes for
Hayemeyer, deserted as he is by the great body OF
the Democratic party, and with no hope of being
elected, votes in effect for Wood.

The Erening Pos, yesterday came out for
Opdyke. That old and able journal, actuated in
this case by DO party considerations, and looking
solely TO the surest means of defeating Fernando
Wood has at last become convinced that Mr..
O,dyke is the candidate with whom success is most
probable, and advocates his cause accordingly.
That The Post comes later into the ranks than
some of US, only gives the greater weight to its
conclusion. Had there been greater chance Of
eIecting Mr. Havcmeyer, The Post would not have
abandoned the inclination TO support hlm, which it
declares il felt at the outset Thus all the Anti
Wood elements are rapidly concentrating them
selves on Opdyke. For the credit and peace ofths

Perhaps never has there been an election which
the Republican masses Of New-York have ap-
preached with such steady confidence and such un-
ancbipg resolution TO do their whole duty as that
of Tuesday next In the great Fremont campaign
there was more enthusiasm; but then the party was
new and not certain of it's strength-far different
from the veteran array which il now presents TO its
enemies In electDg Coz. Morgan in 1865, the Re-
publicans Of the city mp calamity to the work
and gave their neghbor and tried leader the hearth
estsupport. But now is the first time that we have
ever been called on party 70 take the lead IN
redeeming the Municipal Government from the con-
troll of an ignoble and corrupt faction on the one
hand, and in saving ii from desperate demagogue
on the other. In the MayOralty election Of
1856, the Republicans were divided between Bar
ker Bleecker, and Whiting. In 1851, We formed
the majority of the body of voters who elected
Tiemaun. But now, in 1859, we stand at once for
the Republican cause and for the welfare of the
CITY, with candidate Of our own selection, man
whose integrity, capacity, and fidelity to prnei-
pie we all know to be beyond question. 1t Is no
bic contest. The prize to be gained is the honor
and prosperity Of this great metropolis, and ar
honest use Of the patronage Of the City Govern
