ALBANY. Aprll IL. 1872.
Raised from the dead by the appointment OF
conference committee In both houses and the action
of Custom House republicans IN making strong
demonstration In It's favor, the Committee OF
Sevensys charter has again doomed up among the
important measures tnat mus! yet for some time to
come give the Legislature considerable food for
thought and boherallon. In my letter yesterday
/ lall bare tue underground operations OF the |
patriotic factions. wac have suddenly come
TO the conclusion 10 right about face
aud go 10 work with their sleeves rolled up
for the success OF the scheme winch they had up TO
a week ago opposed with all their might and main;
and II now turns out that these operations cover
more ground ana have wider range than even the
most knowing 'un has even presumed 10 suspect.
Tue Tact Is that the various cllqueS and clans who
are strugglIng-al OF course out OF pure unaoyed
Tor the welfare of New York-to get possession
OF the spoils OF once are making arrangements to
COME TO AN ''UNDERsTANDING''
winch Will be satisfactory to the Seventy people,
and at The same time OF exceeding profit to them
selves. They nave discovered tEat heretofore in
pulling and hauling each on its own account, ana
each iu deadly opposition to the other they have all
been growing weaker, and tnelr Individual ana col

o! the city they were seeking "sman oy degrees and
beautifully ess every day. The discovery OF course
was not a very difficult one TO make; but still there
none so bind those who vii. not see and the
leaders OF the factions, IN their anxiety TO
one another or rather another's plans, failed 10
look ahead with that care and scrutiny they GER
talny would have, had they been less as to
the upshot OF their own little po,s ana sirategcms.
il wia be remembered how bitterly the charter was
opposed 10y certain outside parties When II lett
the hands OF the Assembly ana the Senate got 1t

In the Senate, ana how they counseled, I'M
pIored, heseechcd and even threatened OBJ
just what tney wanted the charter
and 10 prevent anything getting into it which
would have gone against tneir grain. IL was while
the senate was beng bothered 10 death by these
parties that The ciiqueS Tor the first time learned
