BOSTON sept. 81, 1871.
There has been no very appreclabe change In the
aspect OF affairs at the various political headquar
tiers in this city since my despatch Of last night.
The friends OF General Butler are much elated at
his prospects for attaining the GubernatOria nOml-
nation, while the opposition appears somewhat
downcast. There can be no question but that both
parties are straning every nerve for victory.
Dr. George B. Loring, who early in the campaign
was thought to be the Generals most formidable
competitor, has kept himself very shady of late.
1t Is stated that he has been Out6anked In his own
county by the redoubtabe Ben, and The knowledge
Of this fact coupled with the lack Of energy the
part OF his supporters, may induce him to retire
from the contest. Should Or. LOring arrive at this
decison the fight at the Republican State Conven-
tion Will be narrowed down to q triangular contest
between Messrs. Butler, Alexander II. Rice and eX-
Congressman Washburne, unless, inded the friends
OF the last two shall concentrate their enegies upon
new man. At the present outlook, however tins lat
ter contingency does not seem likely to take place.
The indications seem rather to point to fierce and
bitter struggle al Worcester. and eventually Butler
