The ALBANY REGENCY COMING RIaHr-UElos
AFTER AL--In another column we publIsh an
account OF the action Of the Democratic State
Central Committee yesterday from which Il
will be seen that Dean Richmond Is not Oh
posed to union per Sc, but only wants to be
united with men Of pith. II ia all mistake to
cay he is not in favor of q union, but be sees No
profit in union with such penniless adventurers
a. Green and Tucker small politicians, who re-
present neither votes nor money, but are max
ing great fuss to force themselves into notice.
The Breckenridge men can have ten, twelve,
fifteen, or any number Of electors on the ticket
that is reasonable. Ben. Wood did not under
stand electoral tickets. He would be more at
home II the question were one oflottery tickets.
Tho philosophy of the union ticket e this:
Every year Dean Richmond makes descent
from the Albany Regency upon Wall street
for money for the ostensible purpose of carry
ing the elections, like Rob Roy, who came down
once ayear from the Highlands of Scotland to
the Lowlands, to levy black mail, and carry it
OF to the mountains Last year the chieftain Of
the Regency was cut short in his raid upon
the commercial metropolis But he now smells
the steaks. He swears the sub committee who
acted under his General Committee were "a
God damn set of fools for treating with
tracing with the merchant princes of New
York, who are able and willing to bleed There
is sound philosophy in this. Richmond knows
that the commercial men in New York who ere
friends of Breckenridge, and have their trade
connections with the South, could probably
raise two hundred millions, while the little fac
ton connected with Green or the Douglas poli.
tcians in this city have not as much money az
would pay their ferriage over the river Styx.
King Dean, therefore, will have nothing to do
with fellows like Green and Tucker-one Of
whom represents old speeches and old clothes.
and the other empty bottles. The supporters
Of Breckenridge represent two hundred millions
of hard cash, and they are the men for the Re-
gency. Richmond finds he cannot get money
from the merchants Of New York to support
sham union ticket. 1t must be veritable union
ticket, that will defeat Lincoln, by embracing
all the elements Of conservatism. They will
not throw away their money with the certainty
Of defeat staring them In the face. Richmond
will therefore, after rejecting the offers of the
Breckenridge State Committee, a. he did yes
terday afternoon, let them have representa-
ton of Breckenridge electors on the ticket, 1t
being well understood that they will come
down with the dust and, consequently, We
shall have union ticket after all, which win
sweep the State.
But let Vigilance Committee be appointed
by the merchants to see that the money sub
scribed Is faithfully applied In defeating Lin
coin. There lie some reason for grave suspicion
that there is secret league between the two
Albany Regencies, Richmond, Cagger and Com
pany on one side, and Thurlow Weed and bic
lobby on the other, to defeat the union ticket
and elect Lincoln by the popular vote and this
deep scheme Ia connected with splendid rail
way job-a road to the PaciHc. II Is necessary,
therefore, to have q Vigilance Committee to
watch the Regency OF which Dean Richmond q
head, and 10 demand vouchers for all moneys
disbufsed, and take good care that these pa
pers be not burned, as was the case In Pennsyi.
vania four years ago.
The BUSINESS OF THE CnY.-The bust
ness Of the metropolis has been enjoy.
Ing this season o marvellous prosperity
Every branch Of trade has experienced
an activity without precedent, and there
L every likelihood that this state Of things
win continue This q attributable, no doubt
to various causes-the general prosperity OF the
country, our splendid harvests at the West and
South, the briskness Of our shipping trade, the
vast concourse Of people who 6ocked hither to
visit the Great Eastern. to see the Japanese Em.
bs&y and the Prince Of Wales, who IL soon ex-
pected. Even the speeches Of the politicians
who have made manifest the fact that New York
Is not merely Northern city, nor Southern,
Western or Eastern city, nor the representative
Of any section of the country, but the embodied
idea Of the whole Union-have brought people
here from oil quarters to the central point,
where oil the vital interests Of the republic con-
centrate, where political issues are 10 be de-

ther political or commercial, ends Its 6nal solu.
