In senatorial, Assembly, and other political mat.
tiers very little activity Is noticeable among the few
active politicians that are at present left In the CITY,
few weeks more and the full tide OF the political
wave will be upon us, when organizations viii be
completed and political movements apparent With
the exception Of the general bearing OF parties as
above given, there are no positive actions, move
ments or plans to chronicle. We SHALL however,
continue TO note and publish every move that may
take place on the political chessboard between this
and the entering upon active operations.
