SENATORIAL ELEcTIoN.-The election Of a
State senator to ill the place ont Of which the
Reform candidate, E. Bates, Esq, has been
choused, takes place to-day, and makes less SEN
satlon and creates less. excitement in the City
than new circus In truth, the only evidence OF
the fact is to be found in the papers, and one or
two tin boxes being toted about the streets In
the hands Of several sable managers An enthu-
sisstic trio mounted 10 cart with drum aud fife
failed to attract the usual crowd Of accompany
ing garnins, and an apathetle quiet pervades all
quarters except the immediate vicinity OF the can
didates. 1t Is generally understood that the Re
publIcans will stand by tile nominee Of the late
convention, 8. E. Gatllard, and Daddy Calm seems
to have uphill work. Gaillard is as black as
darkies usually get to be, and is man Of limited
