The Republicans bore unlimited sway in the Legislatures of 1858, 50, and 'GO, whieb hodies, according to public rumor, were en rely under the control of that class of Ro- publicans of whom Gov. Sewann was the acercdited leader, These three Legi ines wore openly charged with the most shame- Joss and scandalous corruptions; and, whether juetly or unjustly, the well-informed mem. bere of the party throughout the country be Tieved there allegations to be tru But not one even of his most unscruprlous oppo nents ever imayined, or had the hardihood to declare, that Gov, SHWAMD was in any way personally implicated In these corruptions, while the great mass of the party acquitted him of all special knowledge of their exiet- ance. But it fa a part of the indisputable history of those times, that these corruptions were the weapon with which the opponents of Gov. Sewanp within this State, and his rivals outside of it, defeated his nomination at the Chicago Convention. The Democratic party of New York will be very likely to present at the next National Convention a citizen of New York for the Presidential nomination, It may ba Goy, Sexour, who was so waruly supporte fin the last canvass; or SANFORD BE. for whom the New York delegutes voted so often in the July Convention; or possibly Gov.

Codperation has just gained a signal tri- umph in Paris, where it threatens to serious- ly cripple the business of the large retail dry goods shops. Last spring tho clerks employed in these establishments petitioned for Sunday as @ holiday, and for soine abridgment of the hard drudgery to which thoy were subjected. ‘Their employers eeer- od at first disposed to comply with their re quest, but finally declined positively to do so, A general strike among the clerks was the result. Disayroements of this nature are not uncommon between employer and employee, and not unfrequently work to the disad vantage of the latter; but in the present iu. sianee the clerks have turned the tables upon the shopkeepers by organizing them. selves into codperative societies, and opening enormous stores, exceeding In size any others in Pare, ‘Tho manufacturers send them all the goals they need, and associations repre. senting en aggregate of two hundred thousand workingmen have promised them their custom, If these stores, as is not improbable should drive the shopkeepers aud middie: men out of the field, the latter will have only themselves to blame, Théy refused a reason. able request, and they are reaping the un pleasant consequences.

In fact, the circumstances are such that people generally believe that BUITERFTELD was made Assistant Treasurer because he had aided largely in giving Gen.

His vest is partly nobuttoned, and an mxo 1s supported on the right shoubler, Mr. Grecley's feet are entirely concested by what we suppose to be intended for leaves, thongh on this point the picture is somewhat ita sive. A large beavy black bat is thrown far back on his bead, and his eyes are represented as glancing in an upward direetwn, Now, a real woodman never stands in the position indicated in this picture, nor does any other person ‘when he can avoid it, It resembios that of @ man standing for a photogr: nnd head piece directly behind him, This analogy secras, indeed, to have been the one followed by tho for the expression of misery common to that photographie situation 1# depleted on the connte- nanco of Mr, Greeley, ‘The treo presents no trace of having a yet been touched by the axe, and every- body knows that it would be directly the reverse of Mr. Greeley's babita to begin work by leaning Against @ tree and looking off into the glorious dis tance, If he should exteh one of his hired wood. choppers doing this sort of thing, that individual would bid a epeedy farewell to the shades of Chap- paqna. ‘The most telling triamph of the artist's skill, however, Is to be found in the axe on Mr, Greeley's shoulder.
