The New York herald., 1873-11-02

Outside the mayoralty the great interest would
appear to center upon the reglstershp, upon which
a close vote viii undoubtedly be poed. Mr..
butcher, the republican candidate, the present
Commissioner OF Pensions for New York, is very
popular man and y very active worker, while his
opponent, MIR. Barre, has record OF twenty seven
years Of service in the Registers department upon
which to base his claims. He has been twenty
years deputy in the office for the chieftainship OF
which he now asplres A very thorough canvass
is being made Also OF the respective wards, much
importance being attached TO the result which
will give support to the Mayor in event OF the sue
cess Of either party in obtaining majority in the
Common Council.
In the Sixth ward Supervisor James Naughton
has received the independent nomination OF the
democrats, who oppose the regular" on the
ground that the primary was Illegal. The Twelfth
ward has two strong democratic Independent can
ddates in the person OF Messrs. Hart and Donovon.
The total vote registered in the twenty-five
wards OF Brooklyn this year Is $685. being de-
crease OF nearly 10000 from the registration OF
1874 The probability is that the vote this year
will a falling or OF from 6,000 to 5000 COM
pared with the registry.

WEsTCHESTER COUNTY POLITICS.
A Fierce Partisan Struggle for Omce-
Tactics OF the Opposing Hosts.

A Fierce Partisan Struggle for ONCE
Tactics OF the Opposing Hosts.
During the past week the political cauldron
throughout Westchester county has been bubbling
madly over the fervent partisan heat evolved by
the friends Of rival candidates, who have "placed
their armor in order,n preparatory to measuring
swords on Tuesday. Although unusually BRIEF
owing to the late date at which both sides pre-
sented the names OF their candidates, the canvass
has been marked by much bitterness OF feeling.
The State Senatorial contest, around which, to
certain extent may be said to centre the fate Of
the entire local ticket has, It is generally con-
ceded, been already decided, excepting the indis-
pensable formality Of depositing the ballots. From
present indications 1t would seem that majority
Of the voters in the Ninth Senatorial district still
prefer to entrust their interests 70 Judge Robert
rather than try the doubtful experiment OF
placing them IN the hands OF his inexperienced
competitors.
The struggle for the snrievalty, second only In
considerable amount OF rancor, and gives promise
OF some spicy revelations OF a fraudulent nature
which may possibly engage the attention OF the
made, printed and circulated, which place John
BussIng. the democratic candidate for Sherin, in
much as they impute to him transac
tions in minute detail, setting forth gross
irregularities IN onice during his term as
from this, however there are influential democrats
in many or the towns who have always been dis
satisfied with the nomination OF Busslng, and have
been working day and night to defeat him. II his
success has not been guaranteed by the leading
republicans q woeful disappointment is IN store
for the friends Of the ex-Sherlr on the morning
alter election. 1t s extremely probable that the
remainder Of the county democratic ticket Will be
elected.
There is little visible public interest taken in the
canvass for Assemblymen In the First Assembly
district ex-senator William Cauldweil, who seems
to have decided penchant lor leg Station, is the
democratic candidate, with the chances OF election
In his favor. The contestants in the Second As
sembly district, the republican and democratic
sides respectively, are Amherst Wight, Ir., VINO
represented the district at Albany last winter,
and John H. Cornell who ran for the
same ONCE in 1871 and was defeated. The
republicans have carried this district by
close vote for the past two years ana they win
leave effort untried to achieve another victory
on Tuesday. or the Third Assembly district 1t may
be said that James w. Hustled holds Its constitu-
ency it were In fee simple as there is not even
a backwo0dsman in the entire district sufficiently
verdant to accept q nomination against him with
any more patriotic intention than that OF "making
