effect and one OF the results is the publication OF
the following

HAwLEy's NOMINATION. LOOKED FOR.
II is understood that nearly all Ferrys supporters
will allow the caucus OF tonight to pass unnotced
by them, that they may remain untrainnelled j
caucus but the Fcrryes viii reserve their strength
for the ballot on Tuesday next. The democrats all
their organ the Re1isey1 In support OF the fusion
has excited some suspicion, and many believe that
the democrats were not sincere in their bargain /
with the Ferry liberal republicans. To-day had an
interview with the conductors OF the paper, and they
assure me me that the democracy are getting
that OF the two candidates Ferry is more accepta-
BILE on account of his Independence and failure 70
blindy follow the bidding OF party hacks Mt WASH

u. Harrison, Who for day or two has been looming
up in the light az compromise The democrats
are confident that they can secure nearly every
member OF their party for Ferry, and with the
republican adherenis of the present Sena-
ssr eyss ss s %sGq1 syo s
IL found that they cannot carry sufficient support
to Ferry TO elect him 1t Is intended that the demo-
Gratis shall cast strictly party vote for Governor
English. The excitement to-day Is not AZ intense
1t has been, but the Hawley men are nervous and
letter on Tuesday pointed to, which was not cred
tied at the time, but which has proved to be as |
important as minated.
POLITICS MAKES STRANGE BEDrHII0ws
sometimes and IL certainly does In this contest. |
Few would believe that the democrats and Grant
oitceholdcrs would ever join hands, yet such Is the
case. All the federal officers here, except Marshal
Carl, working for Ferry or support him. Col
lector Northrop, OF the Custom House, who Is a
professor In Yale, does not actively participate but
In a conversation with me to-day he spoke OF Haw-
leys merits and his honorable record In terms OF
praise, but expressed hts preference for Perry on
the ground that he Is man OF great experience.
He reports that the illness Of Ferry Is not calculated
to disable him from attending to his
Postmaster Sperry and his course seem to give the
friends Of Hawey more trouble than any other OF
Ferry's supporters. Meeting him today, endea-
vored to sound MIN rs 70 his reasons for supporting
Ferry, and he frankly stated that he now supported
him for the same reason that he opposed him wnen
he was candidate for the Senate against Il. r: Eos

Elementary usages is much needed In represents
