ALBANY. March IL. 1878.

ALBANY, March II, 1873.
Tho valises OF many country democratic Assem-
blymen are packed here To- night for a visit 10
New York on the first train tomorrow afternoon,
alter the adjournment OF the Legislature. Their
visit, II Is said, IL intended as movement to look
alter the patronage promised 20 them In the
events o. the passage OF the Costigan Tin. The
doctrine Is propounded that residing in the state
OF New YORK they are at least entitled to
equal recognition with residents OF New jersey.
j have conversed with several democrats from
various parts OF the State, ana the TACT cannot be
disguised that good deal OF dissatisfaction Is
manifested In regard 10 the Apo. ntment OF Gen.
eral F1t2 John Porter. Those gentlemen trace in
directly the recent defeat OF The party In New
Hampshire TO this selection and other actions OF
similar character, In the dispensing OF patronage
and the election of oR1cias or questionable poti-
cal reputation to important place. 1t is asserted
by several country members that IN the event OF
their support OF the Cost,gan enactment they
were promised appointments Tor riends in New
York city. Mayor WlcKham, probably for some
weeks 10 come, will be run down with applications
from these gentlemen TO carry out such pledges
as may have been gwen. They look TO the Depart
ment OF Public works as a fruitful field Tor the
carrying out OF these alleged promises.
'ADvIsoRY' MEMBERS.
To-day we nave mad new accession TO the Cir
operations before this Legislature, IN the person
OF Mr.. James DAVIS member Of the republican
party from New York city. In what inter-
est The gentleman proposes TO exercise his
talents has not yet been developed, but rumor,
which Is always busy. connects him with the
operations OF Mayor Wickham on the Costigsn
ein. considering that republican Senate now
holds the fortune OF This measure IN It's Keeping
there may be some ground for this assertion.
THE HOME RULE CRY.
The doctrine and political battle cry, OF home
rule, being considerably weakened under the Fitz
Jonn Porter appoin tnnent, Mayor Wickham, 1t ~
contended, win have TO strike out in
Q new foundation support for his claims
10 pass bills giving MIN exclusive control
OF an appointing and removals IN New York
city. These country gentlemen Will necessarily
seek fair snare OF The patronage IN resompense
Tor their support
