With a growI he rushed at LaTkin. Larkin
had scarcely time to get his revolver out and

Washington, Nov. 20-Governor Odel arrived

Governor Odell remained about an hour with

The Tribune correspondent:
While the postmastership of New-York was
among other subjects, informally discussed by
the President and myself, I can say that l have
no candidate to urge for the position, and do
not believe that the selection will be made be-
fore Congress convenes. Senator Platt will of
course be consulted, and it is safe TO assume
that the next postmaster will be acceptable TO
the business interests of the city.
