II il said that negotiations are In pro-
gress looking to thorough consolida'
tiop Of All the elements of the New York
Democracy With a view to begin Wig
orous campaign against General Grant
and the customhouse faction. Augustus
Schell and other magnates of the Tam
many society are in favor of uniting all
the members of the party irrespective
of local organizations, and the Apollo
hall Democracy are also DESTROYS OF Sc
curing the same end. Both are hostile
10 the charter of the committee of sew
enty, and it is proposed to make their
common opposition to that instrument
n groundwork of union. The basis of
the consolidation has already been can
yassed by politicians on both sides.
IT is again agitated among the people
of the northern peninsula of Michigan
to separate themselves from that State,
and to organize under territorial form
of government, intending afterward to
apply for admission into the Union as
the State of Superior. 1t is urged that
the natural division of the State by Lake
Huron is bar to any intimate relations
between the two peninsulas, and that to
all intents and purposes the northern
peninsula is but dependent province
of the lower. 1t is proposed to petition
Congress this winter to form terrific
rial government for the people of the
peninsula, and to make the question of
separation an issue in the next legisla-
tive canvass.

WAREHOUSE BURGLARs.-At two o'clock
yesterday morning Officer Scott arrested
Patrick Morrissey, alias Hynes, who had
been seen sealing the wall of the Boston
warehouse, on Lafayette street. Private
Waterman Meallia first saw the fellow,
and at the time noticed two others near
the place, and one of them was arrested.
1t is thought that the men had arranged to
steal more than handful of things, as
three chests of tea had been placed in po-
sition for sudden removal. Hynes is but
recently out of prison. The man who
escaped is probably Skinny Rich a bad one.
