Yesterday was n melancholy day around the Repubtican headquarters, Tho Committes held its usnnl sossivn for tho transnction of routine buriness, but the attendance of candidates and outsidora was less than upot the day previous. Among the doinys of tho Committeo was tho auditing of campaign billa and tho distribution of a porbion of the campnign fund, Sevoral par tios amergod from the Committeo’s chamber witls monoy 1 hand, two of witom at leasc are known to bo faithful workers for tho Opposi- tion party. Opo of thom was from the Town of Joffersnn, Upon renching the sidewalk he divided spoils with a friond, and the last sean of tho twain they wero being advieed by a police- man to *‘movo on,” but unsble to ovoy, A. 0. Millard, candidate for Sevator in tho Third District, sent in bis resignation during the forenoon. o rosigned hecause tho chsnces of eleotion wero not ag favorablo as e would liko. The resignation was accopted, and tho namo of Thomas Clancoy was canvansed to flll the va- eaney. Tho vacancy will bo suppliod this morn- ing, a3 o matter of_form only. ; ‘T'ho riddauco of Erust Sclimnlinuas candidate for County Comnmissioner was furthor consider- od by the Committeo, without renching uny re- sult, It was carrontly roported outside of the Commilteo that Capt. Murphy, who was Sclimalian's opponent for tho nomiuation, had offered him 00 to retire in his favor, but that he rofused. It was nflorward roported that Ald. Tailoy bad gouo Mr, Schmalian 350 botter, At lagt nccounts tho poor follow was helting bo- tweon Lwo opinions. It 18 probablo, however, that a wey will be dovised to got rid of Schialian to-day. Llio leading feature of tho day around head- querters was tho recoption of conntry reports, which wero anything but onconraging. Capt. Waiker, of the Town of Jefferson, who had bocn canvasping with Dradloy, reported iu tho aftor- noon that bo had given up tho fight. e bad boen a worker iu the party for bwvelve years, but hie could not understaud the reaction which bud taken place in the laut few days. o did ot think cither Farwell or Bradloy had a ghost of a show, and reported. accordingiy. IHe sub- ucqucndy commupicated the intelligence to Mr. Farwoll, who, althouph quite un- well, at onca jumped in his carrisgo and set to work on tho North Side. Mr, Walker says that au underground influonco, which he could not account for, had rovolutionized Mr. Tarwoll's strongholdy, and he was frce to con- fors his conviction that the Opposition ticket would make & clean swoop. Late in tho aftornoon i roport was provalent that the Committee, in viow of the unfavorable shape affairs woro takiug, had agrecd to appro- prieto £5,000 for cloction purposes for ench of ihe wards of the city, 'T'ho voport could uot be traced to any authontic sourco, THE OPPOSITION. At the Opposition headquartors_nolhing was done of Jmportanca. Lodoyne, Mariison, Cani- flold, and Agnew wore in attendnnce upon tho segsion of the Cominittae, and each soemed san- guine of victory. The utmost harmony appeared 10 provail on tho goneral ticket, bud in tho wards tho Aldermanic fight bad lost nono of its inteus- Y. ‘Tha usual lobby was in attendance, and itn coutidouce in & majoritv for the county ticket of from 10,000 fo 15,000 was uushaken, ety wero offered on these figures, but without takuis, Notwithstanding the confidenco of siccess, the workors of tho party hinvo not rolaxed a tithe. —_———— WARD MEETINGS, TUE SLAVONIANS, Tuesdny evoning at 7 o'clook, in the halt No. 814 West V'wonty-second streat, there nssembled the Polish-Bohomian Execcutivo Committee, con-_ sisting of Anton Ingoman, Francis Bucharsky, Lucas Piposki, Josoph Sabostik, Franzis Smie- taka, J.
