The last week has bern a busy one with these aspironts. They have been alternating between Hquor, politics and turkey—turkey, politics and liqaor— and havo, in fact, kept themselves in an interesting stew genorally, Yestercay was a day of great |ifo in the vicl- amity of Crook & Duff's.

If the public ta all the districts can flad in the roll of candidates men worthy of their confdence, then we will confess that they are not bard to please, and are willing to take up with aimest anything for a Counciiman. There are, we krow, candidates enough in the feld representing regalar and irregular parties to satisfy the love of variety in apy perton; but in most localities the irregular ts worse than the regular, whilst the regular cannot be touched without endangering a person io some contagious disease of the Asiatic type.

The battle fleld fein a general disturbance: the liquor stores and rom. holes have been besieged by anxious practitioners at the bar during the past week, and between the excitement of whirkey, loger, politics and late bours, there has been fan existing staie of affairs thet beggars all description. The Tammany machine has presented four candidates, who baye bad a large experience at the City Hall, and have been found versed \n the peculiar philosophy pro- ‘alent in that localliy. Geo. P. Bickford, whose name heads the list, is a clerk by trade, but ® Councilman by practice; was a member of that Board tm 1864, 1855, 1856, 1957, 1858 and 18f9, as wn instance of the way be generally looks when in the Board, we have but to record the fact that be was sn ardont eusporter of George Law's Yonkers bill, George A.

There was no change in foreign bills. ‘The stock market was inactive to-day, but the tone was generally better. A rumor spread at an early hour to the effect that a scheme of compro- mise between the cotton States and tho republican party had been proposed at Washington, and was likely to obtain favorable consideration. This led to an advance of about one per cent on the general railway list.

The Bt. Louis Democrat of Wednesday, after the suspension of specie payments, thus remarks:— The exchange market remains entirely unsettled, but more sight on the East selliug at 6 per cent um for bankabie funds than at a lower rate, Some of the bankers draw tn armall way for customers at 8 per cent and one bank reaeemed is own areortea branch paper in exchange, for which only 2 per cent premium was charged. — of selling and buying coin are quite uneettied and irene: some would buy gold at 334 premiom over bankable fuods, while some dealers eoid it 4 to 6 pre- minm, and as bigh as 10 per cent bas been known to be id. Silver was worth about 136 ov over baokaple nds. Currency about 2 per cent discount, or 2 to 8 per cent, The Philadelphia Bulletin of last evening re- marks:— The money market hag und: little shange. demand is not so active, and rb Repeal ye | on better terms than for many weeke past. At Baltimore the same evening, according to the Patriot— The money market shows less case than {it did imme- diately after the supension of the banks. None but first class paper can be negotiated on the street, and for this clare 1 to 14 per cent is paid. On undoubted oollaterals, for 60 to 90 days, 10 to 12 per cent is freely paid. The Chicago Tribune, in noticing the business of Wednesday last, says:— The money market bas been dull and quiet Sering the day in all departments. Exchange {s still so cept premium, apd buying rates are about 65, banks do not like to p» over 6 per cent, aud as it is by no means certein how long fhe high rates can continue, ‘here never was a time when our shrewdest were more at fault 8 to the future. As the panic cer- tainly, in {ig more serious aspect, came on with ap- parently little reason, 80 it may end at any time, and for reasons equally trivial and unexpected. The quotations for uncurrent money to-day are:— New England and New cm, Cinetppatt Philadelphia and Baltimore exchanges are very unsettled and advancing. We learn that there is now a million and aquar ter of gold accumulated in the Illinois State Trea- sury, and that the greater part of it will be dis- bursed here on the Ist of January, in liquidation of about $700,060 State debt and $300,000 interest. The payment at any time, if we mistake not, of any part of the outstanding indebtedness, is at the will of the State Treasurer. The Indianapolis Journal says:— In acase before the Sapreme Conrt yesterday, It decided that a bill of exchange drawn by some of free banks of this @tate was not the act of the bank un leas sont aby Hay Ppreaideot and casbier. Hitherto the 7 either of these officers to draw the gmt peek en regarded as sofficient; but the Court decides now that it i not sufficient.

The Superintendent of the Minois Central Rail- road writes from Auburn that “large quantities of corn are cribbing on the branch; that the farm- ers are in fine spirits at the abundance of corn. Large purohases are being made at this point for New Orleans aad Texas. A Texas gentleman has just called upon me; he is buying 100,000 bushels of corn for that market.” The inquirers for land in the Central office are increasing from all parts of the country. The Com- missioner is in treaty with several Scotchmen for large farms. The sales in November will add up about 200,000.
