New York, Nov A Herald special from Florence, 2ist’ inst., says: Vietor Emanuel has resolved fo consult with THE CoNTEST for the successorship to Mr. Hedges, the Internal Revenue Supervisor for the northern district of Ohio, who died on Wed- nesday last, promises to be exciting. Already some half a dozen candidates have forwarded their claims to the office here, and the ery is still they come. The probability is that each of the Republican Representatives from that section of the State will have a favorite for the place, and that they will all want to be heard on the subject before an appointment is made; but as several Congressional districts are inclnded in the ternitory to be supervised, it is likely that Senator Sherman's voice will have most weight in the matter, as appointments of that class are now by custom left pretty much to the recom- mendations of the Senators from the several States. In any event, however, the vacancy will not be tilled until the return of Commis- sioner Delano. Candidates will accordingly have time to file their papers and bring to bear such pressure as they can command. Tae Questions of repeal or modification of th: income tax will cause excited and proionged dis. cussion in’ the approaching session of Congress it is thought. IN REGARD to the removal of the Capital pro- Ject, it issaid that Attorney General Hoar ex- presses the opinion that it is no more possible for Congress to wipe out the District of Colum- bia than to wipe out any State of the Union.
