THE SITUATION IN NEWARK.
Ia view OF the remarkable dearih Of news Of
lively description which has prevailed in New
lha! tue only topic considefed worth talking about
Is tho GOvernOrshlp. The Democratic State COnven-
tion meets In Trenton Tomorrow and every pOI-
cal observer In the State is looking forward with
bated breath in ieverlsh anxiety to see what
the convention VIII bring forth in the shape OF
an opponent TO Mr. Walsh the republican nominee.
IL IL needless TO say that the republicans quite
as anxious on the matter as the democrats, for the
reason as they admit, that rests entirely with the
Democratic Convention who will be the next Gov
ern0r. II really first class man be nominated to-
morrow the republicans dread their chances in
November; for there no use attempting to ais
gulse the fact, MIR. Walsh Is nothing ike the man
believed TO rest with the democrats themselves Az
the situation now stands the question OF the nOmi-
nation tomorrow Is simply, as The Newarkers be-
eve,
BETWEEN PERRY AND PARKER.
Judge Bedle mas q very strong constituency IN Pas
sale, Norris Bergen ana Hudson counties, and VIII
undoubtedly receive handsome complimentary
VOTE but his chances Ol the nomination are believed
to be very slim; scarcely worth talking about, in.
deed Nehemiah Perry Ia decidedly the likelIest OF
the known candidates, and should Ex-Governor Joel
Parker stl persist In declining TO accept the nOmi
nation Perry will assurredly carry the Convention.
There are many prominent democrats who
hold That q party man has no right
TO decline nomination rendered him by
acclamati0n, and these still adhere 10 the
opinion that the Convention, when u assemblies,
will give one grand wIOOp for Parker and force the
nomination on him. His name Is certainly regarded
as tower OF strength to the party, and his nomna-
ton, republicans admit, viii dispose OF Walsh at
once. With very few exceptions all the delegates
have been chosen, and the prospect Is that the Con-
ventlon Will be composed OF body OF democrats
superior In ability anu standing to any similar demo-
cratic gathering In Trenton for some years
