The Delaney delegates from this c6un-
ty did not return hone from the state
convention in the happiest frame of mind,
notwithstanding that their favorite was
elected as one of the delegates FROM this
congressional district at the expense Of
one to whom nearly all of them had
pledged their support. The election Of
Mr. Delaney was made as an offset to
the election of the delegate-at-large, but
the manner of the latter's election, being
an almost unanimous vote of the cOnven
ton, and amid such enthusiasm, was
anything but pleasing to Mr.. Delaney
and his followers, Moreover, theDelaney
crowd was attacked on all sides, in and
out of the convention for their stupidity
in having shelved Bragg two years o,
and their continued attempt to fight him
in this district. it being generally ac-
knowledged by all that the generals
ability, courage and fidelity, entitled him
to better treatment. Thus the result of
the.convention, as regards this district,
has been rather cooler on Mr.. Delaney s
aspirations. Another result will prob
ably be warm fight, at least in this
assembly district, against the election of
delegates favorable to the nomination of
Mr. Delaney for congress.

already now engaged on other candi-
dates.
