Tho clan passed in review np and down Clank street for soveral hours provious to the opening of tho polls, some of thom looking like yellow dogs that had not had a morsa! for forty- cigbt hours, others liko the whelps that thoy are, and tho majority Ike Lulldoge, ‘Towards + o'ciocks thoy moved northwarda in an al- inost. unbroken body, and marched di- reetly to the First Ward polls ac tho Dearborn Btroet ongine-houso, whera they cast a goodly number of ballots, all for tho Hesing clique. ‘Thence they visited the Elev- onth and other wards in the Weat Division somo- what dangerous to tho party thoy wore aupport- ing, To the ‘Lonth Ward they paid particatar attention. If Mr. Kecloy was a witness of thoir nutica in this ward, he muy thonk his stars that hoiy not obliged to prostitute himsolf for tho purpose of gaiving the support of #0 vile a mob, and thank Hesing’s shrowdnosa that bo is no candidate ot their hands.

From 4 o'clock to 7 in the evening theso places wore alf very quict, but immediatoly otter tho cluring of tho polls they rapidly tiled up with as inotley a crowd ns uno coud find outside of tho Fitth Ward in Now York, Nearly all the primaries werd s funny sight. Tho weather wasanything but pleasant but the bummor voter didn’t mind that; ue knew from along and gumetine drouthy exnerionco that tho primaries were au occasion of mach moiste ure to the innard man, ond why should he whoso stomach was mrigatod, not to say over- Howed, with the renerous and apinited flre-water caro for tho milder fluid wutor, It was, in cifect, a punishment for the fierco glare which they had vestowed many a timo and oft, on the bar&e: per who innocently olfored them the ole- mont in a glass. But ho who says that tho rain bad no offect on the result knows little of biman naturo, Hora wero, for instauoo, tno principal dologa- tions of interosted friends of candidates who wero instructed to cnet votes onough to elect thetr reepaotiva tickets. Itcould not admit of doubt that these votes must ve properly distrib- uted.among the wards, aud go transpartation was necessary, Of coxtras, on a day when voters wore atapreminm, stroot carn were out of the question. and he who goncrally walked must have @ carriage or Ap ownibus—or at loast a wagon. Nuw hero was whero Foloy and Cor- coran and Mike McDonald triumphed; thoy took their voters from ward to ward it omut- buses, aud oven caritages, This stroke of pol- cy won them soveral ward delegations, for their oppovents had provided uotuing but wagons, and wuo could expect & poor but honert repeater togoin a wagon when palatial ommbus, with stiaiv, could bo had for the asking ? When the McDoneld-Corcoran band of free- voting gamblers and roughs got around to THE ELEVENTH WARD ptimary thoy mado it wry fren for a timo, and undertook a system of olcctioneeting set forth in tne following report to tho Buporintendont of Police: M,C, Hickey, General Superintendent—8in: Tha poll in tho Elevanth Ward, at 141 North Halsted street, wan clorod at 7 o'clook ‘sharp, and the Judges bogatt counting the voter, lotting a number of their friends into (ho raom—In all about 40 persons, Lefore the votce were all counted somo person throw the lamp from tho tablo, and in tho dark the mob burated the ballot, tore the tlekota, and scattered thom on the ground, Joun Hoge, ‘Madison Street Station. Asa mattor of absotate fact, the election of | delogutes yestorday PROVED VERY LITTLE as to tho success of Fimorty, or Foley, or any- body olee, According to popular undoretand- ing, acertain man may carry more wards and deiogatoa thau any other candidato, but that doos not at all insuro his election.

So far as the situation now stands, it may be said that Foloy sevms to bo beaten in spite of all tho repontiug dono for him, Finerty carried the Eloventh aud some otber wards, aud is suro of Tom Judge's friends, which iss help, but arill the chancea seom to favaraame mau who Las not beon so Jong in the Held. ‘Tho ouly tight of any longth or strength In to- day's Convention will bo betweon Foloy aud Finerty, the former having presumably the most dolugates, aud tho latter tho bust aud most on- thuuiagtia {rlenda.

Tha polities! oxcitement yesterday wan con- fined to tho intricate wire-pulllng snd the bustle and preparation ineilent ta the Opposition Can- vention at MvCoratick’s Hall, which meeta this morning at 11 o'cloek. The antipathy to Mr. Hesing which bas tonnd a partial veut in tho violent kicks against various Hosing combina- tions, aud tho adoption of Tom Foley, with tho rejection of Finerts, i4 0 thorn in tho sido of tho Upponition that paiis them ko badly that their defeat in the race is imminent. ‘Che loas of 80 many votes on theso accounts is largely ine croased by tho Koeley defection, and no one knows this better than Mr, Iosing. He is as nervous, Ip entte of his powwarful system, ann tea-drinkivg old maid, and in thia respect his trainer, H. B. Miller, Iya fit. subject to keop him company. Ho knows weil that Keeley will never pull off tho track, aud fo bo fights as. hard against him as ho knows how, and chdeayors to promntgate mean Kittle Basings about Keoloy's prat life, but against his carcor as a formor Uounty Treasuror ho has notning to say, In all his sayings and doings, thoro is numistakable ovicence that Mr. Hesing is not a little worried about tha success Keoley has met with, in ble bolting for an indo- pendent tickot. fn tho Convention, which mecta to-day, thor fe no donbt but Hosing will rocoivo the nomination for tho County Treasurership ; on this thero will bo no discussion. The contest for the nomination for THE SUPERION COURT CLERKBULP will bo ono of the mont violent that have over taken place for apyonoelugio office, The canui- datos are Jolin Finerty, Thomas Foley, Edward Cullerton, Shomas F. Jutge, Aloxrandor Sulli- yan, and Calvin @. Wilson, Vinerty was tho first in the field, and was of tho greatest service to Hosing and the other Opposition leaders in the oarly portion of tho campaign. Nevor- theless “ thoy saw fit to put bim off thelr ticket to gain the support of the guimbling interosta by tho nomivation of ‘Yom Foley. MeDonald demanded it, and Homing was forced to accedo, Of tho other candidates Sullivan, Jadgo, and Cullerton aro the most Troninent, and it would not bo astonniing to sco either one of these threo secure the yomiua- tion. Judge has worked hard thus far in the campaign, aud goes into the Couvention much stronger than tho average pulitician expects. Snllivan’s cundidsey camo rather Jato in ao- nounconicnt, and indeod it was not expected that ho would compete with any of the stronger can- didates. Wishing to gniu tho position for tho ractice and opportunities it would afford jim in iv chosen profession, Mr. Sullivan allowed his name to bo pushod forward asa candidate with tho understanding that, if there was no chotco betweon tho cther aspirants, he waa to bo brought into harmonize the various factiona. His chances in the Convention aro limited to this poxaibility. Cullerton ta tho moat adroit politi- cian of the lot, and, although ho las not taken any activa interest in (he campaign, ho may take ® Yiolont ft of activity in the Convention and Yeay out all the others in tho most approved convention atylo, By somo choxen few Judso {a considered the nomince of the party, Ho ia a atealghteling Domocrat, and tt may ba given, him in the yain hopes of reclaim- ing that part of the Democratle party which ro- cently wecoded from the Opposition on account of the Heaing-loed alliance. Ile hus also the tndlyided support of Mike Evans, and every- body knows that Mito’s presonco in a convon- tion is as dangerous to all combiuations asa mad bull in a china-shop. Yhore wore exprossions to the offect that Fin- orty'a friends had acted rather injudiciously at the meeting in Burke's Hotol, aud woe poll- ticlans thought it would injure his chances bo. foro the Convention, It waa not bolieved that Mr. Finerty would allow hia namo to bo ueed a8 on solitary independent enndidate jn tha ovent of his defeat in the Convontion, tho argumonts of great expenso and lack of party orgauization being urgod against such acourse, It was thought that a thitd ticket might be mado up, provided the can- didates could stand tho expenss of pushing tt; but, as none are very woalthy, that scheme must fall to tho ground. ‘The disaffection which is sure to follow among the Opposition after to-day’s Conyention, and tho utrong desiro for revenge, makes it probable that thros tickets will be in the fleld, sud then there will bo a guro victory for the Iepub- jicans, ¥OR THE NOMINATIONS FOR COUNTY COMMISION- End, itis almout impossible to predict who will be tho auccoasf{ul candidates. In all probability thoy will bo mon whoxo names have not yet boon atmounced in connection with tho position, but, whoever they may be, it may reasonably bo ex- pected that they will not be mon of tho, most exemplary charactor. Inthose days of notorious county corruption it {a almost s political death for ati honout man to talk of sspiring ton seat in the County Board, and thus it is that such men aa Jim Appleton and tho like are tho ouly candidates thus far announced. It ia barely owsibte that the names of auch mon as Mark Eieridan and Col, Oloary may bo taken up by tho Convention, but the powsibilities are fow anil far boswoen, aud if it is done tt will only bo to strengthen a ticket already loaded down with bankrupt, soml-mortified politicians, A BTBAIGUT TICKET. Thero was very little discussion of politica about the City-Hall yesterday, aud only a fow of the strongost wire-pittlers put in at appearance. One knowlng gentleman sald Slike Keeloy was endeavoring to get up a citizens’ movement, which was inconded to head off tho Republican Convention mainly, so that the field would be left froe to Koolvy and any of tho malcontonta of the Oppomsion Convention, To loarn just now much truth there was in that report, ‘Tue Trr- UNE representative sought for Ald, Schaffnor, Chairman of the Hopublican County Com- mittes, and loarnod from him that he had just sont the call around to the panors for the Hepublican Convontion, and he ald, 80 far ou he was concerned, there would be no compromise, Hoe thought the Republicans had a golden opportunity to boat the Opposition, in view of tho fact that a triangular contest was imminont. Ho did not belleve in making avy compromises with so-called indepondent candi- dates, who wore sorebesds from the Oppo- altion, Ho anid he had consulted with prominent Joadera of tho party, and they had made similar expressions, and wore now anxions to rom s full ticket, composed of men who have integrity and the confidence of tho people.
