WARRINGTON, Sept. IA gentleman
who snstains very confidential relations
with Secretary FOlger, returned here to-
day from New York, having made q
pretty thorough canvass and talked with
leading politicians of the State. He
stated to your correspondent that it
seemed to be the general belief the Sec
retary would receive the gubsrnatorial
nomination ON the first ballot, and that
his election was fOreg0ne conclusion.
He WAS popular with the masses Of the
people, stalwarts and half-breeds, and
his candidacy will insure unity in the
party and the reconciliation of past diff
ferences. The Secretary had not
swerved from what he considered his
duty in this matter, and has not made
any personal appeals for support, but
was contenting himself with good visit
at Geneva, N. Y, with his family. There
was no doubt entertained but that Judge
FoIRer could sweep the State against
any Democrat that might be opposed to
him, for both wings OF the Republican
party would work earnestly for his cleo
tion.
