Retrieving the LOSSES Sustained.
ALBANY March 23-This morning, on calm
cOns. Iteration of what occurred in the Assembly
yeste rday, the Young Democracy realized that
although their measures had been beaten, yet
their position was, If anything, stronger in New
YoIk city. They knew that the scrubs OF the
Assembly had received
THE PRICE OF THEIR INFAMY
from the Ring. A legion of politicians from New
York high and low, great ana small, made their
appearance this morning. They described the
excitement among their brethren in New York
aa intense. Some of these gentlemen were very
eager to tar and feather forthwith the scoun-
drels who had sold out the party and 1t was with
much ditfc, lty that they could be restrained
from accomplishing their desires. The Republi-
cans are, of course in high feather. They feel
certain that the next spring and fall elections
will reinstate them in power. AT noon to-day
the news of Mr.. Tweeds remaval and that of
Messrs. Barber and Smith was received. 1t
created no surprise for every one expected It, Mr.
Tweed betrayed no signs of regret when the
intelligence was conveyed to him. Barber was
as cool as cucumber, and Hank Smith said he
was glad OF it. Your correspondent this evening
called upon Senator Norton
THE EIGHTH WARD THUNDERBoLT.
The Senator expressed his Judgment that the
defeat of Democratic measures in the House
Yesterday was effected by n combination of ring
Democrats and ring Republicans who for years
have been united together in plundering the
city and county treasury, and raised large sums
of money which it Is asserted on good authority
was employed for purposes of corruption. He
Hinchman and special deputy of Sweeney,
Tweed and company, offered 10000 for city
members vote to kill the bills, and $4,000 was
offered for any Democratic member who would
absent himself on the occasion. Now, said the
Senator, this conspiracy has been going on for
weeks, and the principal agent in making the
bargains was one of Tweeds Republican office
holders closely identified with the ring for years.
IT is hntural that since this combination Of
SPURIOUS DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS
have secured immense fortunes and patronage
they should continue to desire to hold on to the
spoils by the same corrupt means by which they
originally acquired them. 1t was necessary, how
ever, that apparently Tweed should be desirous to
secure the restoration of power to the party to
which he belongs, though secretly engaged in
this nefarious transaction but 1t was impossible,
from the nature of the material he employed,
and the operations with which he and his clan
are connected, that they could escape detection
and exposure.
TEMPORARY DIsCoMFITURE.
The people of the city of New York will hold
them responsible for these acts, knowing the
wealth which they have acquired from the fat
offices they have held, and which they have now
employed to the attempted destruction of the
Democratic party, will hurl them FROM power;
and probably before this Legislature adjourns
they will be compelled to give up some of the
ill-gotten gains which they have acquired, and
which can easily be ascertained by examining
the different records of the city of New York
and the adjacent counties Even If there Is nc
legislation during this session, they will not
realize their expectations because the tax levies
4 will not have those appropriations necessary to
: carry out their plundering schemes.
SMOKING OUT TKB TRAITORS.
Just before the adjournment of the Assembly
to-day, Mr.. Peter Mitchell presented the follow
ing resolution, which created profound sen
sation among those who yesterday sold out tC

tality and influence of certain prominent Democrats

them OF the corrupt radical commissions imposed
by partisan Legislature, known as the acts re0r-
ganlZng the Board OF Metropolitan Police Commis-
siOns, the Board Of Supervisors OF the county OF
