POLITICAL.

The fusion in New York, so far as the first propo-
siton is concerned, has proved failure. The
Douglas State Central Committee were in secret
session all day on Friday, at the St Nicholas Ho-
tel, considering the subject. Messrs. Wood and
Latlin made an official report in regard to their
gotiations with the Green Committee, and Offering
aresoluton agreeing with the ultimatum PROPOSE
tion of the Committee. The resolution was voted
down by a vote Of seven to five. Subsequently the
National Democratic Volunteers made overtures to
the Committee, asking ten electors names, to be
taken from the present Breckenridge electoral tick
ct, and onehalf of the State ticket. Before con-
sidering the proposition the Committee appointed
sub Committee, consisting of Richmond, Cagger
and Hubbard, with power to fill any vacancies that
might occur in the electoral ticket, and adjourned
sine die.
The "Natonal Democratic Volunteers" are COM
posed mostly of merchants. The Express, of Sat
urday afternoon, says:
The Democratic State Committee were in session
all day yesterday, at the St. Nicholas, and up to
late hour in the evening. Without much difficulty
and in cooperation with the association known as
the Democratic Volunteers, said to be mainly com.
posed OF gentlemen, friends to MIR. Breckenridge
they agreed to change the electoral ticket framed
at Syracuse, and to recognise, indirectly, the
Breckenridge men, not as party in State organi-
zation, but a substantality-a power. The
General State Breckenridge Committee were ig-
nored entirely.
After much consideration, it was agreed at last
to put on the electoral ticket five or six new gen.
tlemen, whose preference, it is understood were
for MIR. breckenridge, but who were to receive
their nomination from the Douglas Committee and
to act in and under its organization Several gen
tlemep were finally named for this purpose, among
them Wilson G. Hunt, Moses Taylor, Mr.. Duncan
Duncan Sherman and Governor Kemble. -
NO names, however, were agreed to, but the mat
ter of changing the electors-the principle being
agreed upon-was left over to a sub Committee of
three, of which Dean Richmond is Chairman. This
sub b-Commitee meet this morning, and during the
day will doubtless frame ticket.
1t Is believed, we may say, now known, that an
electoral ticket then agreed upon, will receive the
support of all the Breckinridge men in this quarter
OF the State, where about all of them are and that
the Federal Government will lend such ticket its
sanction and support. Several gentlemen connected
with the Federal Government, in attendance at the
st. Nicholas last night, lent sanction certainly to
this idea.
Hence, we may say, and we think, with great
degree of certainty, that electoral ticket, in
volving all the opposition in the State, will be
agreed upon.
THE NEW YORK DOUGLAS COMMITTEE REJECT THE PRO
POSED FUSION.

tee have rejected the proposals of the Breckenridge
volunteer association, and have also declared that

OF the electors now on the Breckenridge electoral
ticket.
