NEW YORK sENATORSHIP.
Vice President Wheeler Brought Out as a
Dark Horse.

ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 2.-The majority
of the legislature is now in the city, ant
hotels are quite lively with canvassine
for the speakership. 1t is conceded thai
Sharp will receive the nomination of the
caucus tomorrow night, though Skinner
will receive quite tlattering vote. In
canvassing, the United States Senator
ship crops out frequently, and the anti.
| Conkling section, though they would
like to elect Skinner speaker, and fee
they cannot do it, are positive they will
elect an anti -Conkling candidate United
States Senator They say they have
votes of assemblymen enough pledged
to secure this result in joint ballot
when vote of anti Conkling men will be
cast.
New YORK, Jan. 2.-The Herald's AL
bany special says: GA Wheeler boom fol
the Senatorship has been started tonight
by the northern country men. Assembly
man Brennan, of Malone, leads the move
ment and the arrival of a large delegation
of Wheeler's friends from the north is
promised Monday The grounds on
which Wheeler is urged are that his nom
ination would be substantially compro-
mise between the two great Republican
factions His advocates hope to hold the
balance of power between them in caucus
and prophesy that their favorite will be
the second choice of both. They number
at present about dozen Senators and
AS semblymen.'
The Sun says Kings county charity
commissioners yesterday organized under
the new law with only three members,
VIM. Shipman, c. j. Henry and James
Ryan, took possession not only of all
county buildings, but also of Kings
county penitentiary. The control of all
these institutions is now in the hands of
anti mclaughlin Democrats, and Hugh
Mclaughlin has been stripped almost
bare of the patronage he enjoyed for
many years"
NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-The Tribune to-mor-
row, will give prominence to the following
editorial:
The time seems fit for at least one statement
about the approaching administration of
President Garfield. 1t is not to be used as
make weight in the coming Senatorial con-
test, whether in New York or elsewhere. All
are fully authorized to say this, and the words
are entitled to their full Specification, 1t is
proper to say further, M that the b
incoming ADMINISTRATOR VIII see W IL
that men from New York and other States who
had the courage at Chicago to obey the wishes
O: their districts in balloting for President and
who thus finally voted for Garfield shall not
suffer for II nor lose by it. They will not fail
of honorable recognition for their independ-.
ence, their courage, their resolute pursuit of
the policy they believed best for the Republi-
can party and for the country. The gentlemen
at Albany who are said to have been threatened
with different course at Washington
may reassure themselves. The administration
of President Garfield is to be an administration
for the whole Republican party. 1t will
foment no quarrels. It viii most earnestly
seek the things that make for peace and for
the hest interests of the party. It represents,
but it will not permit it's friends to be persecut-
ed for their friendship. Whoever has been per-
suaded to doubt this may as well make hence
forth declaration ofindependence from dicta-
ton of any authority save the wishes OF con-
stituents and his own convictions of right.
