Connery is hardly imaginative enough for the work; but O’Lon- nor, by his fertility an®@ success in inventing and palming off nitro-glycerine stories upon gaping correspondents of country newspapers, is evidently equal to the task. it certainly must be O'Connor. SECRETARY SEWARD arrived in this city by the early train this morning, after ten days ab- sence, which he quietly passed at his home in Auburn.

THE TELEGRAPHIC WIRES are down North and West, which accounts for the absence of dispatches from either quarter. The new: per correspondents at the Capitol to-day were high and dry, with no yebicle to carry off their “specials” to their expectant papers, How- ever, there was not much news afloat to send.

Among whom werg Sec- retary Seward; Senator Buckalew, and several Representatives. This afternoon the President ‘was closeted with his counsel, and no visitors were admitted. Gry.
