DIX NOMINATEDL ¥Oit CITY MAYOR. Spectal Dispatch $o The Tribune. New Yonrg, Oct. 8le—As previously declded upon, Gen. John A. Dix was nominated for Mayorto-night by the Republiouns. This renders it certaln that there will be but two local tick- cts. 'Phe anti-Tammauy party hes been bought up by Tilden, apd the Indencndents, thus de- prived of the double support they had couuted on, will glve up, provided a nomination for Comptroller 1s guarantced Mr, Green, The nomlnation of Gen. Dix will drr out the full Republicsn vote of thy city. The foeling about the action of thu Couvention was clewrly ex- pressed by u prominent politician at 1lead. quarters, who sald: “The Republicans in this city may be (n o hopeless mluority, but they will uever consent to dicker with Independents or discontented Demovrats whose game isal- ways susplclous, « They demand o straight ticket every time, and vote for 1t struighi, win orlose. Geou. Dix wiil undoubtedly get 60,030 wvotes, andjwill strengthen the national and State tickets™ THE MON., CARL ACRURZ wasamong the visitorsat the nat{onal hesd- quarters to-lay. Iio snid his inccting at Roch- ester wus one of the Jargest and most enthusiastle he had uddressed. From what foets he pathered In the wvarious sections he has visited, e expresses confldence in the result, while cautlonsly holding that the contest will be close and fought out fo the hust moment. TIIE STATH COMMITIRE hasreecived u caredul canvass [rom a large numa- ber of counties. As to tliese nothing will e diselosed, save thut they bring thy most clice: i fuformation. That' s, perhaps, enough, Advylees from Ulster Coutity, which the Demo- crats clalm to be good for from 1,600 to 2,500 majarity for Tilten, go to show quite_another stale of things. An examinstion discovers that the county heel Republican In every Presidential clection since 1855, with the ¢ on of 1608, the year of the sys- tenntic Democratic fraud throughout the Stute. Iy 1872, Grant'n majority was 930, Whenever o full Republican vote has been polled the resuit wae o loss of Uister to the other shle, “The fact thint the peovle have not been so aroused since the beginning of the War gives assurance of o full vato uext Tucsday, nud reuders it more than probable thut, Instead of 3, mujority for hiden, the result wlll be “nesyly a tie, with even chances for u small Republican wmojority, The forcign population omuloyed (n the mines of the Delu- ware & Ilwdson Canul Cumpauy forms the floating vote. Should Tilden's monsy catch thiy, nis majority would be GO0 or muere, but vastly veduced ot best from the Democratic cstiimates, CORNING, BTEUNEN COUNTY. The most notable mass-meeting in the State to-lay was at Cornlng, Steuben County, where Mr. Blaino was reccived with the esame wild enthusiasin he meets everywhere in the Western counties, Delegatiung were in nttendunee from Allegun; AL01 Yates, Chemung, sehuyler, ia Counties, JThere wus o pracession of thousandsthis afternoon.

Competent judges [n both parties agreo that this Htule has never been so thoroughly can- vassed us In the present cumpuien, Certainly Mr. Tllden has left uothing undone that shrewds ness could devise or money render posaible, Ho 13 thy actual, as Mr, Mugone (s the nominal, head of the State Cowmmittee, Notu move has been made but under hs pereonal supervision; and, {u respect to its political churacterlstics, it may safely Lo sald that no Governor cve Jooked so” closely after bis Btate us has I From the first, when thu list of doubt- ful voters was obtalned ot Democratic headguarters, down to this day, as heen no enil to the Hood of cumpaign documents set- tinz forth the inealenlable (ua they truly are) servicea of Namuel J. Lilten. Tl dociinents, ekilfully prepared and {u general spoealing to he selilah Interests of the men in Whose buuds they are placed, are counted ONI: OF TUE MAIN AGENCIES thraugh which Democratic success Is to be reached. A gentleman from Lewls County, awiy up north, bs said to bave reported the dis- tribution of these posters in the viciity of his hawe to be 4o great that the beurs of thie Wouds tad been {taprossed into Tilden's seryive, snd were not fufrequently to he met with bluo posters attached o their talls, Bu this true or not, there are fow places whero o "tllden handbilt s vot to be sccn, frum Castle Gurden fa this city to thu St. Luwience River, ON TUE OTHER UAND, + the Republican manugers in the State havelittle faith in this method. e Cornedl Is singularly opposed to the products of the printlug-preas, whether in the shaps of newspapers or posters He utterly refuscs to see journalists or to give legitimate fnformation, and prides himself, I suspect, on hla independence of the press, That, Lownw:r, fe of small conseguence us compired with the elfect of his not mucting the personal appeals of Mr. Tilden in the saute diréct manuer, via the matls. When in the western part of the State, the only cx- pression of doubt I heard awong Republicans was regarding this very matter. Assurances were given a yesterday at the State headquar- ters that alarge force of c¢lerks were now at work sending out hundreds of thousands of docutacnts, fully coveriug the ground takea by , tunjority | lates to Southern cludws, 1876. the ather side, It was sald, further, that the Comuittee had PURPOSELY DELAYED LIl late, that the forceof thelrarguments might not be spent too long before eloctionwiay. The Natlonal Commitice. however, unquestion- ably, had a hand In the active puching of this branch of work. Where Mr. Tilden has retied tipon his direct address to doubtful voters, Mr, Cornell lins de- voted bis eneries to covering the State most \vldclg and cffectively with spealers, With the Republicans it Is markedly a mass-inceting cam- palfn, **Inan experience of over twenty years n New York politics,) suld a leading ltepub- lican this morning, *1 have never known such . & tuming out of the pcnl)le 23 we haye had at our meetings: nor hes there been such an ar- ray of able speakers. The Natlonal Committee has furnished all the men ft could spare at Mr, Cornell’s request, and ot one but bas done good work, TIIE REPORTS BROUGHT IN by these speakers are astonlshing even to mein respect to the statoot feeling they find In places where the Republican cause scemed tost weak, I0 1 am wrong, 1 will confees to have most toul- ly decelved myself, but every ludlication to-day I:n'mlb to Republican success in this State a round majority, And the best of it is, that the prospect erows brighter every oming. Oue of the clearest proufs to me is the bluster they arc making doswn at the Everett 1louse (the Democratlc headquarters). Adi to his 3Mr, Thden'a cry of despolr in his War- 4 claima letter, and [t looka very much as If the Democrats are bewinning to agree with me about It."” FROM JLFFERSON COTNTY, on the easlern shore of Lake Ontarlo, the re- ports are not only most encouraging, but show what can he done without much™ help from the State Commlttce, “Instead of kending on funds for the necessury cxpenses of the canvase, @8 ft hus wlmost fuvariavl done herctofore, that Committee left the Tiepublicans of Jeflerson to do their own work with ther own means. While fecling the neglect tnough to desire that the credit of their work should” he given where it belongs, the Republicans tovk up the task with encrgy. To meet the “filden documeuts, the County Come mittee had 100.000 answera printed at er- town, and the blue bills of onc side are nlways Tound accompanied by the rea bills of the other, It §s the staudard joke there, by the way, that "Tilden's bilis aud prospeeta look cqually blue. The Republican documents Include dnc on the fax question, explaining exnctly how thie State tax wns reduved, a seconid with two of Mr. Ingersoll’s specehes, and o third with Mr. Blaine's great speech. Norhave the arguments been wasted on Republieans who were sure to vote right. They were sent to known Democrats and doubtfiils. In the way of meetlnzs, there have been Lo or three grand demionstrations at Watertown, and addresses by locu) speakers In cvery school district. A3 A RESULT of this vigorous work, aided by the decided lack of enthusinsin for Tilden among the Democrats, ilic Republican majority in Jefferson County can hxmlliv' fall helow 2,500, while the lowest ese tinate {3 1,800, The largest Republican fince 1673 was 1,200 fn 1570 Last year It was but 780, nnd Mr. Slarbuck, a Dewoerat, was clected State Senator by 305 ma- iorny.

Wasmsoton, D C., Oct. 3l.—Auguat Bele mont in his speech yesterduy defled any one to produce proof tuut there {s any apprehension auong the Syndicate fn this country or in FEurepe that the clection of Tilden would have an unfuvorable eflcet upon the further negotin- tlon of the 43¢ per centloan. I Mr. August Behmont malies oflicial application to the proper quarters e will be referred to bls assoclates in the Ateriean branch of the Syndicate, Messrs, Morton, Bliss & Co., and to other American members of the Syndleate, for the information which he deslires.

Upon the tact being known that no ove candle date would haven m:]arltr of the Conventlon, and tho almost certainty that Gen.

The result was, Hurlbut recelved_the nom- Ination ut the Elgln Conveution fn Junc, 1872, and the next morning Farnsworth packed up® his satchel and started for the Grecley hcmfl quarters (n New-Yoric City. \ It was presimed that thie * Ring ** made thelr ?rupoumun to Luthrop before making it to urlbat, because it was generally snepected that the latter would Lileralize, {t Daviug becn hinted—and it afterward Pm\'cd truc—that, while Minister «t Bogots, he isd written toj Phillips, oue of thie cditors of the Springfield, | Journal, indorsiug the Liberal movement to us full an extent ns efther Palmer, Truwmbull, or Doolittle had. H The result of the clection of 1972 was in Gen, Hurlhut's favor, though he ran behind the Grant ticket over 1,000 votes, \ After the re-election and Insuguration of Gen. Grant, Gen. Hurlbut CALRICD OUT ALL OF PARNSWORTN'S ORIGINAL CONTRACTS with regard to sppolntments and Federpl pa- ) tronagze, though it is not clalined that ho repaid © the expenses and corruption-fund. In fact, it fs | believed he did not; for his reputation for dis- churgring money-contracts has not heen of the highest order. ” For instance, during the same campalgm of 772, he wrote to Charles 8pafford, Postmabter at Rockford, nsking him (o send 2500 for campalgn-purpases, loclosing his note to Spafford for the amount. Spaflord had not. the amount at hand, but procured the signature of Mr. Thomas Scott, a Rockford coal-dealer, to the note, and then signed (L himself and nego- tiated ft, sending the inoney to Hurlbut. Wihen the note became due, Mr, Scott. pald it, and still has 1t in his possession, unless he has parted with it sluce Sept. 27, 1470, In 1674 Hurlbut wwas again nominated for Con- gress, without opposition,—Farnsworth running ugninst bliny—and was re-elected by about 1,2( mafority, a8 azainst over 10,000 in 187; and now Mr, Farnaworth fs runningg as the regular Democratic, Tilden candidate for Congress, and Hurlbut Is ruuning on the stump ns IS ALLY ORt ASHISTANT; for Farnsworth saya he could beat the npposi- tion if there were “three men running against him, Tu fact, Farnsworth and Hurlbut reall, are “Lunting fu palvs,” and, as a proof lhrrcu[{ Jetters have lDeen seen fin that district frow Gen. Hurlbut, fn which ho m?‘s‘ in sib- stance: **Have uo fva.ru: 1t 14 all right anyway, Ithasall been armngoil thet, I cazo Paris- worth is elected dud Huyes should be President, the disposttion, control, and dispensation of the Federl patrouage in the district is to remnain the samens heretofore.” This of course means, stlll lu the hands of Gen, Hurlbut. It {5 atso currently reported, upon what is re- garded us good authority, that Gen. Hurlbut, through his Iriends, has applied to the Demo- cratle State Central Committee for funds to Iielp Wi run his stump campaign, If thisba so, the object is apparent, st further comment thereon is unnecessary.
