THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 4, 1S71 5 HARRIsnURQ. ME OPENING OF THE LEGISLATURE Pnri.ADEI. PHIA IGNORED IN THE HENATE THE fTItST SENATORIAL PIRTRICT ELECTION DISAFFEC TION IN THE DEMOCRATIC IXANKS THE STATE TikEASfEEB QUERTION MAC'KEY TO BE NO MINATED THE SELECTION OF THE COM MITTEES. From Oi'r Own Correspondent. IlARRrsnntn, Jan. 3, 1871. Tho Legislature la at last organized, but It was not accomplished without some excitement In both tlie Senate and the House. While Philadelphia U better and more largely repre sented In trie selection of the oMlcers of the House than last year, she" has been Ignored almost com pletely In the Senate. The Senutors outside of Phi ladelphia seem to have forgotten that had it not been for the Democratic workers in tho First Senatorial district, they would now be in a minority indeed, every one who has been here within the paat several hours listening to the revelations of the Fourth ward crowd lias become convinced that tho election in that district was by no means a fair one, and that had they not so prominently interested themselves in behalf of Colonel Dechcrt he would have been left at home by a large plurality vote. That is the sentiment particularly of those who reside in Philadelphia and ktow the ability of the Alderman and his satellites for conducting elcctlom. These men concluded that, as they uad contributed so materially in placing the Democratic party in power in one branch of the Legislature, and thus giving them control of one-half of the expenditures of the State, t':cy should have whatever positions they desired. They demanded not much, but In so doing they came in conflict with Senator Randall, of Sehuyli 111 county, who had taken tne precaution In advance lo travel to the residence of every country Senator and secure his support for. his man. The Philadelphians solicited the 8 rjcant-at-Arms and named as their man John Ahern, who is well known in the City or Brotherly Love. They demanded this position, although the aliry is precisely tlie s;nne as all the e nplojes on the mil, and would be satisfied with mttitng else. Senator Randall would not yield an Inch, and he held his fellow Senators to their pledges. The consequence was that at the caucus held last evening Ahern was thrown overboard, and loud were tho threats made by his adherents. They asserted that they won id take Colonel Dechert back home and t hus prevent tlie Senate organizing, unless their wish was acceded to. Wiser counsels pre vailed, however, and the Colonel was accordingly In his seat and voted throughout with his political col leagues. The Philadelphia psirly left this eveuing for home, after having caused more consternation in the Capitol than has boon witnessed sinoe the raid which was made two years ago on a Lancaster Senator. Senator Petriken certainly has just cause te remember this early visit of the men who rule the Democratic party ol Philadelphia. The xi ute Trenmirrr (MieMlon. Now that the organization of both houses Ins been effected, the greatest interest will be attached to the question of the election of a State Treasurer. The question is ngliating both parties, and the inge nuity of the Democrats will be particularly taxed to maintain a belligerent feeling between the friends of Messrs. lUackeyand Tagart, the competing Re publican candidates, hoping by tills means tu have their own candidate step in and obtain the cheese. The feeliug created by the bort from M ickey's nomination last year is rapidly being allayed, and there is now a good prospect of the caucus nominee receiving the unanimous vote of tTie Republicans. It is now positively asserted tht every member of that party has expressed his determination to adhere to the decision of the caucus, and one of those who was active in promoting the defection last winter Ins said that lie has no reason to be proud of his vote on that occasion, and will not permit himself to be placed in the same tlx again. A powerful and per haps bitter opposition to Mr. Mackey is plaln.y visible among others than those in the Legislature, and these people will, no doubt, again endeavor to secure a bolt. The same men prominent in Re publican ranks are present in Harrisburg as they were last January, and they are endeavoring to use their utmost endeavors to prevent his nomination. But, from present appearances, that seems impossible, for a large majority of the mem bers are lu his favor. This Ulit la entirely personal, and is a legitimate outgrowth of the petty bickerings which possess the factions which unfortunately divide the Republican pa:ty. Among the better members there Is a disposition to quiet these dis turbing elements, at least as far as the State Trea surer is concerned. The proposed Constitutional Convention will undoubtedly take this matter up and provide lor the choice of that oilicer by a direct popular vote, and thus remove the entire subject from the halls of legislation. This is thonly eil'ec tual remedy for the exhibitions of shameful venality that annually attend the opening of the session. The Selection of Committees. Although tltorouglily orgauized, neither house will be able to commence business until next week, when the committees will be announced. It is thought that an adjournment until Tuesday next will take place to-morrow, at least an effort to that effect will be made, iu order to allow the Speakers plenty of time for the purpose of naming the various standing committees. This subject of committee making has excited little or no literest whatever, and there has not been any selections for the chair manship of any of these bodies, it seems to be con ceded that the members will be so distributed that there can be no forming of rings for corrupt purposes; at least no one set of men will be per mitted to obtain pn.ssesxlou of any one committee for personal aggrandizement. The new Speaker, while on the Door, was always recognized as one of the staunchost reformers, and was always unwilling to lend himself lu any way to promote the numerous questionable schemes that were continually being striven for by designing combinations, lie has promised no appointments, ami iu but one or two Instances r.as he been solicited by members far position. There is (scarcely any doubt that he will give -entire satisfaction to all parties concerned. The i-ame may be said of speaker Wallace of the Senate. Small-pox is racing in Oregon.

There has been a substantial improvement in deposits, specie, nnd legal-tenders, and the loans have ttleo expanded, and as the disbursements now going ou in every direction, letting loose a largo amount of capital hitherto locked up, shall find Iheir way iuto tho banks, there can be no doubt that the loan market, in another week or ten day?, will rule exceptionally easy. A very' active speculative demand, however, is likely to follow if rates should full, as they must, and this will serve to steady tbe market. Money is being lreely offered both on call and time con tiacts, nnd rates nre hardly so strong, though not materially changed. Gold is quiet and very steady, all the sales ranging from 110; jY 1 10f, opening and elosiug at lltwi. Government bonds are in good demand and prices are a fraction higher.
