The halls OF the County Court House yester-
day were comparatively empty. Sheriff o'Brien ro-
ceivod his friends with his usual grace, and no,
ripple Of trouble over his brow. Indeed, the
Sheriff was In good spirits. During the afternoon
the Hon. George W. Mclean called upon him, and
they went up town together. Judge McCunu also
visited the Sheriff q once during the afternoon The
sherih's friends were nO downcast, and said that
though Messre. Tweed and Sweeny might control
tile votes Of the Legislature. they could not control
the votes of the city, as time would show.
SUGAR YoR ALBANY.
During the day, 1t was reported that Supervisor
Hayes and the stalwsrt Morri.sey were busiiy en-.
