Per sons wu doing tor the ChaUtdwKwh.r and chided for our lumdaome description of his voyage tip the river. One of our would he tormentors telling us of the money that had already been appropriated for the opening of the river, was thunderstruck when we old him that Persons had not yet olttalned ere dollar for the enterprise. Nor would this man acknowledge the correctness of our statement until some of his neiglilstrs, friends tot apt. Persons, assured him that we were right about the matter. The sur vey about which some peopfo are making such a parade was paid for with money ob tained by the immediate predecessor of Mr Persons. As the gallant (’apt. would scorn to wear the honors of another we are satis fied that, if interrogated, he would corrob orate all that we have stated above. Finding the Senate would not find Ren froe guilty of impeachment, tlic House passed a resolution, that as Renfrew had corruptly used the state's money that the governor should at once proceed to enter suit against the treasurer for tlie money thus corruptly pocketed. Now, this reso lution was hard on the 17 senators who hail just voted that Renfroe had sot corruptly used the state’s money, so when the House resolution reached the Senate these 17 intel ligent gentlemen were placed in an awk ward dilemma and grew restive under it. If they supported the reaylution it waM 1* s direct rcficetion ujssi their b-fitter vcAe, anil if they voted against it tliis would Is- a reflection ort Keafroe, who said lie lust tak en tin- money and offered to pay rt bwk.

Asa lawyer lie ranks among the ablest in the state and as a governor he wquld Is? the equal of any who ever occupied that exalted position We would cheerfully support him. A writer in the New York Sun thinks that Robinson will lie elected governor of New York, as the democrats, on account of the Kelly defection, will make a more de termined effort to carry the state than ever before. Robinson's election will secure Tilden’s renominatiou and Tilden is delight ed with Robinson’s chances for victory. Kelly by opposing Tilden at St, Louis 3 years ago secured his nomination to the presidency and by his mutiny this year forced the renomination of Robinson for governor. Tammany being in bad order outside of New York city it* opposition to a good man secures his triumph. We do not know how much truth there is in the above idea*.
