LOCAL POLITICS. THE POLLING PLACES. Polls Open... To-day the citizens of the metropolis, in common ‘with their fellow citizens of the Stace, are called upon, Detween the hours of sunrise and sunset, to designate their choice cf the candidates nominated upon what, An political circles, is known as the State ticket” Im this city those who enjoy tho right of suffrage are also called upon to make election of candidates to Ol) the legisiative, county and judiciary offices which, be- ome vacant on the Ist of January next. Bieetlon Eve—Scenes About Town Lust Night. “* Waiting for the Verdict’ would be about tho best title for any picture of the present time, portraying tho moving incidents, mise en scene and general effect which a sketch of the city the night before the elections should embody and convey. Politics are all the rage. Men think and dream, live, and eat and drink—especi- ally the latter—nothing but politics; and, like the troubled sea” of David, the Psalmist, which “ throws wp only mire and dirt,” the popular mind, in a voting sense, is in a continual state of ferment, resulting in an accumulation of froth, babble and general scum, which, Dime the genuive écume de mer, is useless, worthless and wearly impalpable. Friend Hans is veritably ein Gliick at the present juncture; while the Milesian element of the Population isaC a premium, The democrats, bow they muster and wax jubilant—the republicans, how hard- working and matter of fact they are, Both sides as. sembie and speechify {m solemn conclave, and quorums are more common than they were a weok or two back. ‘Then the biddiog had not been gone through; now it is ‘an sccomplished fact.

Around the City Hall yesterday, and scattered about the puriieus of the east side aud alone the expanse of Chatham street, Broadway, Fulton end Nassau street, and further up town Where politicians most do congregaie, were to be geen men of every class and clan, men of every nation- ality, men of yy shade of political privciple or fecl- ‘tag, all pusbing, striving and working to achieve their ‘own ends and favor the interests of their several parties, Here ia one corner of the sidewalk, wherever there was a crossing, were assembled a knot ol three or four eager partisans asseverating with the most Praisoworthy zeal and ‘damnable iteration,’ according to Hamlet, the probable results of the chances of their especiat favorite for tho county clerkship. There a | yh of sedate fammanites were to be observed going ito extacies over the prospects of their own wigwam Row it partly espoused the opposite sacbem, and confident of victory. While in the streets, especially circled about the lager beer saloons aud restaurants, within one mile radius ef the metropolis, you came across every now and then groupe of voters, both German and Irish, who were full of spirits and spirit, aod bad evidently given themselves ‘Gp tothe pleasures of anticipation and Bourbon. All throughout the city the palings and dead walls, street ‘corners and cornices, and the boardings in front of now buildings in process of erection, were all Pressed into the services of electioneering canvass and made a dead etter except az advertising candidates for effice. Bills, green, red and blue, printed in all the colors and with all the effects of type and lettering ‘which the exuberant fancy of a printer could suggest, were everywhere apparent, and are so atill, pro- bably, on this moruing of the elections, ‘Here you are sir—Bill Sykes for foreman, Sulem =cudder tor operator, Jeremy Diddler for clothes-wringer and general iaundry- man, Vote eariy—that’s our ticket.” There is It a man on); Tile to gain bis point.

Never has there been such a political fuss and canvass known before. From “early morn to dewy ‘eve’’ the whole PS gga of the Empire City seemed politically demoa! Nothing was talked of or thought and the voters @f but democratic and republican cu: the bet- ing very animated at the pool rooms of 1. B. Johnson, Reilly’s restaurant, corner of Broadway and Twenty- eighth street, last evening, there was evidently a feel- Ang among the fraternity not to risk their last dollar, as ‘the large registered vote and the conflicting opinions Prevailing as to the success of non-success of various candidates, puzzied them exceedingly, The only candi- dacies sold by the auctioneer were County Cierk and ‘Sherif, and they brought the following sums:— COUNTY CLERK, 6 6 6 4 3% 40 e: @ ee mi 107 10 No 105 150 6 S80 6 6 The Registration. ‘The number of voters registered last year in this city, ‘as given in the papers, is incorrect.
