The New York HeralFs Washington
correspondent says that Mayor Wood
has been comforting with Breckin-1
ridge, Douglas and the Administration.
He suggest that there should be but one
electoral ticket in the State Of New York,
with an; electoral college unplcdged TO
either candidate, but to throw the vote
forsither, as may be most polite. His
proposition seems to meet with favor
from both sides II, however, these pa
eifc councils shall not prevail and the
Administration does not throw itself into
the fight. the probability IS that Mayor
Wood will go with the popular sentiment
ofthe State, which he thinks IS in favor
ofDoaglas The impression is that the
ADMINISTRATION will throw their whole
power in favor Of Breckenridge and Lane
