The Atlas and Argus to-night figures the democratic majorities at 52,527, and the republican majorities 39,302 democratic majority, 13,135. They claim fourteen democratic Senators, putting Burhaus, democrat, down elected in the Delaware district, aud make the House stand 62 democrats, 69 republicans and seven Americans. ‘The Albany Journal's footings of the election returns do Bot alter the result in the State from the neighborhood of 10,000 democratic majority. Wheeler, American, is elected to the Senate from the Ninth district, instead of Tuthill. The Journal figures for the Senate 16 straight republicans, claiming Hathaway in the Fourteenth and Loveland in the Fifteenth—which claims are disputed by the democrats—13 democrats, 2 Americans and 1 inde- pendent. They now claim 67 republicans, including nine Americans, to 61 democrats, in the Assembly. {From the Albany Evening Journal, Noy. 6.] There appears to be no longer a doubt that the demo- ‘cratic ingle officers are elected by a majority of several id, According to returns to-day the Senate is republican Dy one or two majority, but there are two doubtful dis- See ze 0 te heard from, which may leave them in a minority. inthe Assembly neither party, so far, is proved to have a preponderance. ‘The December Election. THE POLITICIANS PREPARING FOR THE CHARTER BLECTION—WHO IS TO BE THE OPPOSITION CANDI- DATE FOR MAYOR—THE OFFICERS TO BE ELECTED REPUBLICAN PRIMARY ELECTIONS. ‘Under the provisions of the new city charter, the elcc- tion for city officers w-ll take place the first Tuesday in December, and already the politicians are actively at ‘work in canvassing the merits of candidates for the va- rious offices to be filled. Last night the republicans held & primary election in their respective ward headquarters to choose delegates t6 the Mayoralty, Judicial and Ward Conventions. All passed off very quietly, and the party leaders had matters pretty much their own way. As this December election is somewhat of a novelty, perhaps it would be well to siate what offlcers are to be choren:— A or is to be chosen in place of Fernando Wood, whom the new charter engineers out of office at the close of this year. Mr. Wood has obtained the re-nomination for Mayor at the hands of the democratic party; but as yet the a have not agreed upon a candidate, and ihe Know Nothing and republican leaders are hard at work endeavoring to unite upon some one lar man to com- pete with the present occupant of the Mayor's chair, The opposition ‘are convinced that a republican or Know fothing stands but very little chance with Mr. Wood in the canvass, and they have been trying hard to induce some jar democrat to accept the opposition nomina- tion, what success is not as yet known. The Know Nothing Mayoralty Convention will meet on the 9th inst., and the Republican Convention on the 11th, at which time it will become known who the opposition candidate is to be. The following persons have been named as the pro- able recipients of this nomination William F. Havemeyer,. Democrat james E. Coole: Democrat Robert J. Dillon mocrat Judge Michael U! mocrat irew H. Mickle unocrat Peter Cooper. Democrat James R. Whit! Democrat Alexander W. Brad! «Republican Ww. Know Nothing John A. Kennedy Republican Ani J. Republican Robert T. Hawa Oid line whig Teaac O. Barker Know Nothing Wm. C. Tucker ... Know Nothing Anumber of other republicans and Know Nothings are mentioned, but the nomination has been gent begging to the democrats mentioned above, and thcy undoubtedly will have the preference should they accept. There are two difficulties in the way of these gentlemen. One = that whoever accepts the nomination is expected to pa; 900,000 for election euponees, and the other ts the enered ingly slim chance of the opposition candidate for clection. A new Board of Aldermen is also to be elected in De- dember. This Board will consist of seventeen members. The Aldermen elected from wards baving an odd pumeri cal designation will serve one year, and those from the even wards for two years. A new Board of Councilmen wil! also be chosen, hut in’® very different manner from the way it has heen done fore. The old board of sixty members is aboliched, and in their place a body of twenty-four members will be chosen. Six will be elected in each Senatorial district on & general ticket. They are to serve for one year A new Board of Supervisors will also be chosen. It is to consist of twelve members, six of whom will be demo- crate and six opposition. Each party nominates six per sons, who are to be voted for on a general ticket. The six having the highest number of votes are to be declared elected by the County Canvassers, and the six having the next highest vote are to be appointed by the Mayor before the Ist of following. Neither the Mayor or Re- corder will have seats in this Board, but the Mayor must approve the ay made by the Supervisors be- fore their disbursement becomes legal. A majority of the Board may, however, pass appropriations over the Mayor's veto. (0 Governors of the Alms House are also to be elected in the same manner as heretofore. Police Magistrates, six in number, and Civil Justices, of which there are also six, will be chosen next December, in place of the persons now hokling those offices ‘ard and Schoo) offcers are also to be chosen: From this resumé it will be seen that the coming elec tion is quite an important one, and will no doubt create much more interest than that which took place last Tues day. ‘The Grocers’ Steam Sugar Refining Company —Meeting of the Creditors. A meeting of the creditors of the Grocers’ Steam Sugar Refining Company, whose suspension was reported in Thursday's Henarp, was held in room 41 of the Astor House, with closed doors, yesterday afternoon. Tho at- tendance was very large, so much so that the spacious parlor was crowded. Soon after the hour appointed for the meeting, (33g o’clock,) it was moved and seconded that Charles M. Fry, Bsq., preside, which was carried with acclamation, F. H. Palmer was appointed Seore- tary. The first business in order was the reading of the rej of the Grocers’ Steam Sugar Refining Company by Mr. Briggs. Which, we are informed, stated that the original cost of the real estate of the company was $870,000, which bonds were issued to amount of $207,000. The stock of raw material now in of manufacture was said to be $827 000, and the debts due the company by grocers $50,000, The liabilities in bills payable, it ix waid, in $723,000, and that the trustees have loaned the com. pany $91,000. A motion to the effect that the trustees make a Cr of some kind to the creditors, was amended by Mr. Skiddy moving the appointment of a com mittee to consult with the trustees and investigate the affaire of the company, which resolution was adopted. ae consists of Messrs. Lees, Youngs, Renault, Sol Van Ostrand and Palmer. The meeting then adjourned. Police Intelligence, CHARGED WITH FORGING TIS WIFE'S SIGNATURE TO A DEED—AN INTERESTING CASE. John B. Holmes was arrested yesterday on a bench ‘warrant issued by Judge Russell, of the Court of General Sensions, where he stands indicted for forgery in the first degree, in having, as it is alleged, forged the signature of his wife to a mortgage, and conveying a large quantity of land, situated in the neighborhood of Albany, to one Jas.

The deed in question purported to be « joint one, signed by the prisoner and his wife, Ada Holmes. ‘The rignature of the acensed was genuine, but the signa. panty inne ga an gh adeeb hag is wife, and signed her queation as “Ada Holmes.” Upon this evidence, stres ned by other circumstances, the Grand Jury fou « true a of ledictmnant saainat defendant forgery in at degree. indict. Ment was brought into court at one o'clock afternoon, when a bench warrant was iseued by Ji Russell, and at three o'clock Holmes was locked up in the Tombs. The defendant in this case has been in a sea of trouble for the last three — He commenced his career by killing officer vy, the First ward police, on the night previous to the ection in 1854. Since thea he has been continually Re the pubic in various charactere, but, strange to say, Ways managed to get clear. Whether his usual good fortune will attend him in this instance or not is a matter of uncertainty. The Prisoner is a surveyor by profession, and was long em- ‘ed by Anthony J.

About nine o’clock several thousand people, ‘of various nationalities and professions, had congregated and were scattered over the ground in small groups, dis- cussing their several grievances, and the probabilities | and improbabilities of their obtaining work, and nar- rating to each other the sufferings of themselves and families, Conspicuous among the crowd was a small ban- ner of white muslin, stretched ona square frame, and containing in large block letters the following inscrip- tion:— AOI LI IIOOLENOIIIOLOLENE NG BOCONPOEO LODE HE AG WE W. WORK. roernnnnnn THE SPEECHES, The meeting was called to order by Mr. Bowles, a Dlackemith, and one of the leaders in the movement, when Mr. John H. Boull was introdaced, who pro- ceeded to speak at some length with reference to the condition of the workingmen, especially of this city, who are at the present time without work or means. During his remarks he said that the members of Congress, of Assembly or city or State offl- cere, of, in fact, any person who stole the public or other property on ap extensive scale would not be prosecuted for theft; wiatle, on the other hand, let the poor man or humble private citizen take the articles which are essen- tially necessary for the maimtenance of himself and famity from starvation, be the value ever so small, with- out first paying therefor by the honest sweat of his brow and he would be arrested, tried and imprisoned, or other- wise severely punished, While the heads of government acknowledge by their every act that thieving is the order of the day, should they, the working men, colleotively or Individually, take a loaf of bread they would be punished as common felons. It had heretofore been the rich ainst the poor, but the time has come when it shall be the inst the rich. Noother resource was now Jeft them to go to the rich and tell them that they, the working men, must and should have all they wanted. (Cheers.) When once the eed put their shoulders to wheel the ball was easily started in motion, and they must not let it stop till the grievances of the people were alleviated. (Cheors.) Mr. Bowiae was the next speaker. He spoke substan- tially aa follows:—We will goto the quarters where our desti lies to-day. We shall abide by the laws of our country. We want work, and that is all we require. We want the capitalists of Wall street, who have their money ‘buried in their vaults, to come forward and cash the notes of men who would give us employment if they could ob- tain the money to do so with. We wever have dreamed, since the commencement of the hard times, that the Cen tral Park Commissioners would go on with their work until it was too late to afford us the relief we at present wtand 60 much in need of. The city authorities are talking about employing us, and payjng us off in potatoos and flour; but we don’t want cither their rotten flour or their rotten potatocs—we want money, and that we shall have. The present, of affairs and our condition is a dis: grace to thiérepudtican country, and should uot be suffer- ed to exist # day by those who have the power to alter them, and ly the thousands of hungry meu, wo- men and ren in this city with sufficient work to en- able them to-keep from starvation. ‘The working men have made capitaffsts and aristocrats of this country rich by the sweat of their brows, ami now it was no more than just that the ys Soe should in turn receive their rights at their iis. Unity is our strength; law and order we will abide by; the sword we fear not; but we must have our rights. Mr. J.T. MoGuik® pext read several extracts from the Deily Times, which #poke of the danger of arousing the Native American sentjnent in this city, in opposition to the workingmen’s protests aud muss meetings, us those sentiments were wide gpread, and wore only slumbering for want of the proper incentives for arousing them into active life.

The procession having formed again, marched to the Park, when Mr. Bowles again addressed the crowd, ant after rebuking the officers for having interfered with them, he proceeded to say he hoped peace would be main- tained. He was for doing every thing honorable, but work they must and should have, if they made the Mayor ive ittothem, He insisted that the Mayor was their riend, and hoped three cheers would be given tor him— (responded to by hearty cheers.) He said he had wished them to come to the City Hall, principally for the purpose of cheering their noble Mayor. (Three more chcers). After some further remarks the speaker gave way to Mr Smith, who spoke for some time, and concluded by read- ing the following resolution, which had been drawn up by their committee for their adoption:— Resolved, That landiorda can do much to alleviate the present and prospective distress among the mechanics and laboring classes, by a course of liberality and for- bearance towards their tenants. The mass of laboring men hire premises by the month, and rents become duc every day in the year, payable in advance. To eject a family at this season for non-payment of advance rent, would be unwarrantable and cruel, and justly de serving of the severest reprebension and ¢corn of all good men. ‘This resolution was received with shouts of applause from the multitude. At this stage the Committee on Address and Resolutions, who had waited on the Mayor, returned and reported that he had told them that the Central Park would be com menced on Monday, and that one thousand men would be employed at it. He also told them that if the working classes would behave themselves quictly he would be able to do much more for them. nm this was announ- ced to the crowd from the steps of the City Hall, there was no end to the cheering that followed for the Mayor. ‘This was succeeded by additional speeches from those who bad addressed the meeting in Tompkins square, and other workmen, after which the multitude quietly dis- persed. DELEGATES FROM THE SEVENTEENTH WARD WAIT ON THE MAYOR. After the mass meeting had dispersed, three delegates from the working classes in the Seventeenth ward waited ‘on Mayor Wood in his office, for the purpose of laying be fore him the condition of the people in that locality, and beseeching him to do what would be in his power for them. The following is the conversation that occurred on that occasion. DetxcaTes—We come, your Honor, as delegates from the Seventeenth ward, lo speak on behalf of the working classes in that loc “gt @ Mavor—What ix the business that you want to lay be- fore me? DaLeGaTrs—We want to know if there is hg means by which we may obtain employment, for our families are starving at the present time, Mayor—I ain doing all I can for the working classes, but if they don’t conduct themselves more peaceably than they did to-day, by shouting and calling on the merchants in Wall street for work, I will have it in my power to do nothing whatever for them. I can do no more than I am doing at present, for I am waiting to receive an’ account of the proceedings of the Board of Councilmen, who have been engaged in con sidering the subject of work during the winter, but the workmen should not be coming down town and making noise, and marching in procession as they have been doing for some days, and especially to-day. Derecares—We have no provisions at present, and what be. fore Mouday if there is vothing done towards relief by that time. Matters will be worse than ever they were in 1837, for the people will be perishing; and we cannot say whether the people can refrain from open violence longer than that time. Mayor—I wish you all to be quiet, for otherwise there may be nothing done. DetegaTes—We will exert ourselves to keep the people quiet. Mayor—I feel very glad to hear you say that you will exert yourselves to keop the people qniet, and I will feel very much obliged by your keeping that promise. Fight Among the ‘Longshoremen of New Jersey. Quite an animated fight took, place yesterday afternoon upon the Long Dock, at Jersey City, between a party of New York and New Jersey ‘longshoremen, growing out of a joa. lousy caused by the New York mon going there to execute a job of work. Three men from New York were engaged in discharging & schooner of a load of grain for Mayor Westcott’s brewery, and this fact coming to the know: e plenty of monoy to employ all if they (the capitalists) did not eome ing be as starving | Mi 1 M ” Mayor's reply to the commitice, and Mr. Beler’s after reading which be told them to cheer up, and not to | falter or fail (u the midst of plenty.

Mr. Surr#—If you but observe and not violate th we may Pet roceve ad, but if you resort t viol may hold the city In your possession for a few in the end you will be shot down and scattered as chaff by the officers of the law, aided by citigens, storckeepers and capitalist Vorcr—We've waited long enough already. Avotwka—Put him down—sbut up. Mr, Surv continued, and said he was sorry to see any wach apparent Violence manifested by workingmen. Ho wished to see all procure work, but hoped none would violate the law. @ Haturatized citizens took an oath to defend the constitution and to support the laws of the United States, and he asked them not to perjure them selver, If they were going to commit violence, he would not be with them any longer, otherwise he would conti. nue with them. Mr. Bowtss——We will go to the Merchante’ Exchange and ask the bears to give gold for notes, and tell them that we shall and must have labor. The assemblage then formed into line, and marched down the avefives into the Bowery, and thence to Centro street, through Chatham and William into Wall, where the money traders were taken by surprise, Arriving at THE MERCHANTS’ KXCHANGR, The leaders of the meeting mounted the steps of the build ing, the crowd meanwhile totally blockading the street, and rendering it impastabie for vehicles Mr. Bow ms, holding in bis hand roe ao draped in crape, having placed hinwelf in an attitude for speak- ing to'the on proceeded substantially as follows:— we have not come to disturb the public peace, but we are: here to show that we are oppressed, and that work is all ‘we ask for, without which wo must starve.

Our principal motto is, “Law, love and liberty.” The sword we fear not, but hunger we dread, Metter, then, we should die by the sword than disgrace the republic by ¢; of want and hunger. We are satisfled to fight for our flag, but the bears of Wall street must come for. ward and relieve our wants, The speaker said he had always considered himeelf aman of and must he come down to the level of a street in this repub: liean country?

Mr. Bowtes.—My face is well known in this city, but I am pleading in a good cause, and will continue to speak and labor in it while my breath lasts, eooner than not to attain the ends for which I seek. We are willing to work if we can get It, at anything, no matter what, sooner than walk the streets with starvation staring us in the face.

At this stage of the receetings No. 86 and iceman No. 86 an one oF two olber Ofieers tease iboer way into the crowd and seized hold of the emall banner, and attempted to who held it.
