To-day, in ‘Trepton, N.

Tho. “meetings” will not be meetings, butelections, as tho delegates will all be, chosen by ballot, the same. as at regular elections. By this means the rowdtes and stuifera of last year will be “packed” out. The friends.of Walsh, Dayidson, Kilpatrick and Scovel held a conference at their respective head- quarters.in Trenton last night. A meeting was held at Freese Ball, in which the forlorn hope of the cav- alryman was arrayed for a iast and desperate charge. Scovel is crestfallen over the Camden vic- tory for Walsh. He turned for comfort to Bettle, but the latter could afford him none, He was re- ferred by him, however, to Bumsted, who arrived from Jersey City in the afternoon, Bilt foresees tho rout of the republican party, and he will try to save his last stake by combining with ali the wooden pavement politicians. One thing may be safely predicated: If Kilpatrick be defeated bis trive of bolters from Hudson and Essex counties will bolt as they did last year, and the success of the democracy will be certain. At all events,” this convention is likely to create dissen- sions In the repnblican party which will be fatal to the success of that party.” ‘The leaders of the democ- racy are Wacnlag and listening, so that they can take advantage of the enemy's weak point.
