A SIGNIFICANT PRIVATE CAUCUS, Speaking of the Speaker's trip to Washington reminds me of a fact which T have not yet seen published. On Saturday, the 19th, Messrs, Al+ vord, Husted, and Fort met at the Speaker’ house, and an effort was made to harmonizo the conflicting elements on a charter for New York. Fort was invited instead of Hawkins, from the fact that he it was who took charge of the Bers enty's charter at the critical moment, »n4 /orced it to a third reading, and from the further fact that it was not deemed safe to bring the gallant Colonel and the Onondaga Giant together so soon after their little growl in the Assembly, Tris also said that Gen. Sickles was present. It was in pursuance of the action taken at thia lite tle gathering that Mr, Smith went to Washing ton, and Lam credibly informed that If success In his mission there, ft 1s belteved that all the differences in the Republican party, not only in the Legislature but the State, will be healed THE SEVENTY ON HAND.

The passage of such a law ix asked for by the leading tobacconiste of New York, who claim that they are annually de~ frauded out of large sums by the changing of the Hyures on the original packages, &c.
