Spa1NaF1KLD, H., Jau. 0.-The importance
Of the Senatorial campaign IL fully Indicated
In the appearance Of the corridors Of tho
| Le1and Houso tonight. They swarm with
Legislators, patriots, and candidates for the
small Offices In the gift Of both Houses.
Applications for all sorta Of places, from,
Third Assistant Doorkeeper down to janitor
Of the cloak-room, ara thicker than frogs in
Egypt. Each one ciaitna TINT Ae can control
a vote for Senator, aud all aro plnying that
card with leaders OF the factions Of tho
dominant party. During the greater portion
Of tho day tho Senatorial conflict sngrossctl
tho most attention.

lAnd parlois. constant tilo has been
ebbing md flowing all day. John was in

hotel door, thu legislative atatcamen wero
taken In hand aud rim into tho Bureau bo-
fora they had even time to register. Tho
strllers mud clacquors kept up constant
beating Of drums and pounding OF cymba1s,
we'll calculated to inspire tho uussasp,cous
Granger with the belief that thore waa moth

that there WIS certain amount OF political
patronage that could be secured II everything
went straight. Promises, Of Postmasterships

disploasure of tho great Iudian Chief, aud
in sorne instances there is no room for doubt
but what the threat accomplished It's par-

or last summer, is here, working with all
bis might for Logan, notwithstanding that,
at tho lust State Convention, lie was ,nerci-

SENATOR oaLksnY
arrived this evening, much 10 the delight
Of those friends who nze taking caro- Of his
interests. Tho chaugo that peryaded sle
corridors Of tho lotol after his arrival was
q marked one. There was less bloyiatng on
The part Of tho Logan gang, aud, as they
saw tho grulually-iucreased Interest
taken in Oglesby'a headquarters,
their souls became filed with
more envy thau thsy had known since
the campaign commenced. Ho was warmly
greeted by large delegation Of tie old.lips
Abolitionlats from the Egyptian counties,
with whom he worked when 10 DO an Aboli- |
tionist was equivalent To political ostracism.
