Prospects Of the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and
Republican Nominations.
The eventful issues Of the past six days have cul-
minated in a grand els,g la re political hi story
OF the nation The final verdict OF four States has
been given, speaking In trumpet tones the voice Of
the majority and the death knel to all hope OF
cess in the breast OF the most sangune OF the demo-
cratic party in the coming election so far as the
prospects OF the Presidential canvass concerned
The wet blanket thus cruelty thrown over
the ardent and sincere energies OF the
workers In the ranks Of the democracy
when all was expectancy and hope cannot for
moment he supposed to have passed unfelt in so inn
portant and enthusiastic q democratic district as
Kings county where 10000 majority, and nothing
less, Is promised by the party managers. The result
OF the elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and
Nebraska have certainly had a most depressing
effect upon the majority OF this county, who vince,
grin and bear eers OF the minority the pros
poets OF the Presld entail election But the defeat
throughout the country has certainly had Its bene-
fetal results In Brooklyn local politics. and has
been the means OF uniting certain rival
factions, aud in their determining to hold their
ground mere by putting ticket in nomination which
will lar Ia harmonic all and promote the interests
of their party by drawing out It's solid vote the sd
OF November. This rather unprecedented arrange
ment was made with the ''rngi' by a few of the
more rational Of the leaders here within the past
week only and not without a hard fight, as the
"mystic circlen OF Kings county IL decidedly
latter qualification, and just as ready To sell It's
cause TO gain personal ends. The ticket, ~ whole,
before the people, which was nominated
or Friday and Saturday, IL composed Of very
good material, the nominees being for the greater
part competent and respected citizens, and, what is
also worthy OF endorsement and favorable mention,
IL does not exhibit 80 many names OF 'reyolyers.N
With very few exceptions the names are new and
will therefore take better with the people than the
old regular ticket which has heretofore borne the
same names frat for one Office and then for the
other without any cessation for years past. Rota-
ton in Office is democratic, and the SYSTEM though
In Kings county, will, Ii ~ thought, prove
judcious one, as a matter OF expedency now, at all
events. The ticket has with one exception ignored
the claims Of the conservative soldiers ana sailors Of
this county, and al a natural consequence many OF
the boys Of the latter organization who urged the
nomination Of Brigadier General kozlay before the
open hostility TO It's success on the other hand the
nomination OF MAJOR General Slocum, which that
gallant soldier graciously accepted when formally
rendered him yesterday, was made az matter OF
expediency and should, the managers say, fully
satisfy any reasonable conservative veteran. The
General VIII In all probability lead his ticket IN his
district
The republicans, IN making their city, county and
Assembly nominations, have exercised their usual
capacity in Offering fair bid for the soldiers vote
BY putting less than SAX soldiers names IN nomi-
nation on their ticket. This has been tried on two
or three previous political campaigns this side OF
the water aud has resulted beneiicaly to the lucky
aspirants ut least, who have gone into lucrative
biilets In the very teeth OF that exclusive circle
yclept the ''rng.r This has happened when the
tic ke OF the democracy or very inferior class
from the present, and the chances OF the soldiers
here this season are by no means so brilliant The
two days OF registration. which was 5,94g, Will be
very large probably about 81. ZOO or so, 900.
