Our New.Iork Correspondence. New York, Sept. 2, 186-3. To-day the politicians are buzzing about the city in tremendous style. One would almost suppose that a presidential election were close at hand. The cause of the furore is that to night the democratic primaries meet in the vari ous wards to elect delegates to the state convene tion, which will be held at Albany next Wed nesday. s The importance of this conventieucan scarcely be overestimated, and it reflects a certain im- I portance upon even these primary elections. The convention wilL .practically decide what is to be the policy of the democratic party for the next four years, whether or not it will carry this state in the fall, an ! whether or noit will make a president in 1868. So yoa see that the poli ticians are not buzzing about for nothing. These conventions are very funny, things. They meet to nominate candidates and lay down a platform, but they have very little to do with either. Take, for example, the convention which is to be bV;d next Wednesday You and I know that the men to be nominated and the resolutions to be passed are already agreed upon by Dean Richmond, Peter Cagger and the rest of them, and that all the convention will do is to ratify this agreement between the head men. That daar public how it is humbugged ! S jme years ago, when a democratic state tiefcet was to be nominated, a good old gentle man from the rural districts, who hai contribu- ted much money to the cause, called upon Peter Cagger to know what was going to be done. "Well," said Cagger, confidentially, "we shall nominate Soandso for this office, and 'Totherrnan for that office, and " "Wess my soul !" cried the innocent old gentleman, " aren't you going to let the convention nominate anybody ?'' " 0," said Cagger, "the convention? Yes, yes ! Let me look atthe names of the delegates. Hum ! Well, we will let t ie convention nomU nate the state prison inspector. The delegates seem admirably qualified to choose the right kind of a man, and may have a personal interest in the office." heavily weighed down by such copperheads as Seymour and the Woods, is yet far more pro gressive than in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. I expect to see them pass the strongest kind of resolutions in favor of President John son and his reorganization policy. If so, they will have the sympathies, if not the actual as sistance, of all the conservative republicans, and as parties in this state are very nicely bal arced, 1 should not be at all surprised to see the democrats win. You know that there is really nothing to fight about politically, unless the old, old battle between radicalism and conservatism is renewed. And, if it be renewed, all the con servatives 'will go upon the one side and all the radicals upon the other, like the black and whie checkers on the board. I dwell so long upon what you may call our local politics, because they are a representative in miniature of national politics. The same confused jumbling of parties, the same curious combinations of apparently opposing factions, prevail everywhere. Yesterday Preston King took possession of the custom house, turning out Mr. Draper. . King is a conservative and Draper is a radical. At the same time Mr. Odell walked into the naval office, and Mr. Odell is a l, , . . democrat, appointed Dy tpe repuoncan aaraims- tration. Isn't this a. queer mixture? Nobody can say to which party the president belongs, although all parties claim him even the reber Xews trying to make him out a copperhead. I am very glad that the president has adopted so neutral a position, because the president be longs to, the whole country and not to any faction in it ; but still this development is very singular, and it will be followed by others even more re markable. During the war we were making nationaliiistory ; now we are making political a. history. Of news there is but a scant supply.' It is aid that the Great Eastern will soon leave England for New Foundland . to pick up the pieces of the Atlantic cable ; but no attempt to iay a new cable will be made until May or June 1866.

He paid back half the money and of course he was not arrested. Tiiis facj reminds me of a little atory. When one of the richest man in New York now-a-days was much younger and served as a clerk in a bank, he got into wicked courses kept company with Pharaoh and with Pharaoh's daughter, and finally began quietly robbing the bank. Day by day his ' thievings increased as his infatuation with vice grew deeper, until at last he found himself on the verge of discovery and one hundred thousand dollars in debt to the institution. Unlike Townsend, he did cot run away ; unlike Jenkins, he did not tell everyA body ; unlike Ketchum, he did not take board in 20th street ; but, like a sensible man'he went and consulted a lawyer. How much have you taken?" asked the lawyer. "One hundred thousand dollars," said the clerk. '-Go and take one hundred thousand more and bring it to me," said the lawyer; "I shall waat that sum to settle the matter. The clerk did s he was directed. The lawyer called on the bank officers ; represented himself as the poor old uncle of the guilty clerk; told what his "dear nephew " had done, and offered to pay fifty thousand dollars to have the matter compro mised. The offer wa3 accepted; the lawyer aud clerk divided the remaining fifty thousand be tween them, aud upon that capital the clerk mad his present fortune. Isn't this a queer world ?

The Cashief of the State Dank at Hart ford Indebted to that Institution to the Amount jtt Two Hundred Thousand Dollars, ice. Hartford, August 31, 18G5. The State Bank of this city had deposits to the amount of $100,000 with Morris Ketchum &, Co., of New York, and soon after the fail ure of the firm took placs the bank had an examination of its cash assets, and found that Mr. W. H. D. Callender, its cashier, was a der faulter to the amount of $200,000; or in other words, Mr. Callender was indebted to the bank $200,000. j Mr. Callender has assigned to the bank property to the amount of "nearly" $100, (MJO. His residence, personal property and every thing that could be made available to the cor poration have been secured by the bank. Mr. C. has not been arrested and will pro bably not be. Hi8po.sition as a business man has been heretotore above reproach. He figured somewhat in 18G0 by sending, as an agent lor oharp s company, Doxes oi nne to the Southern States, but these were stopped by the Government. He was very loyal, and .had a Sunday schooTcIass in Christ church, headed all the charitable lists, was a republi can member of the Common Council from the ThirdWard, and a director in many of our corporations. Speculation in stocks and gold cleaned him out a warning to men who use other people's money to get rich. Callender was a "good fellow well met" among his friends and ac quaintances, but was unfortunate. f The bank stood at $125 a $130 a week ago. The defalcation was known to some of the heavy holders three' Of four days since, and they sold freely fotwhti they could get atove ninety dollars, and somebody is out. The bank will not lose much of its capital stock, and their surplus was nearly two hun dred thousand dollars. It is perfectly solvent. Mr. Belknap, the. President, is father of Mr. Belknap of the Ketchum firm. NEWSPAPER ACCOUNT.

Moorings had i een laid down for the Off at Eastern at "Sheiness, and the inference was drawn that she wuuld tot go out again this -eason. The Times says the experience of the expe riment is fullut (B-ouragement for the future; the only discouraging circumstance is the sp-, parent inability ot electricians to discover, se rious faults in the cable before it is paid over the side of the fclrtp. The delay for another year will not b thrown away if it emibh s theuJo devise bet ter tests of excellence of cablobeJote it is sub merged. Though, wHolher they do so or not, wcmibt believe the possibility of an Atlantic telegraph established, ai d look forward to the day as certain, cen if distant, when Eng land ai d America will throb with one pulse ot life. 1 The Daily JY iv-t, special corresj ondent says: It is more than probable that the Great Eas tern will be dispatched to fish np the severed cable as soon as .site can be refitted with stron ger ropes and grapnels. No formal decision can be taken until the meeting of the various lioards on the IMst : but it is tolerably certain that the expedition will re-tart at once. v The prospects of the Atlantic cable "were the prevalent topics. The report ot the Great Eastern had a fa voi able effect on the sha-es, whch rallied from 13i to 21. There was much difference of tfpThion as to the prosptct of recovoring the cable, but generally the feeling was that it might be done. The 7'itjies says that the result of the pro ceedings on the Great Eastern demonstrated the complete feasibility of the Atlantict( le graph. The principal difficulties of the en terprise are overcome;. Failures ensued ftoni accidents which) may be-culledirovoking'frtun their littleness. Explanation is rcquiredwhy the hauling in apparatus was defective ; tut the experience gained may enable the com pany to redeem their error tnd accoolplish the great work. The Daily Neivs censures those who were responsible for not having on hand a sufficient quantity of hauling in tackle, but says : "Al though the facts warrant, disappointment they do not cause dismay, but on the enntrarv oint to the ultimate success and assuming that the three companies interested can make the necessary arrangements at once it is even now not impossible that attempts at telegraph ic communication with America. may be com menced before Autumn, has .passed." Other journals also rfegard the prospects of the cable from a hopeful point of. view, al though some express fears that it will not be recoveied, and that the enterprise.will fail lor the present. TWfe opinion, however, appears to be general that ultimate success is only a question of time and money. The Daily Xacs, says: Nothing will be de finitely knrjvvn as to the future proceedings in connection with the cable until after Mon day, the 21st instant, on which day the differ ent Board will meet anUettle on the future course. Fresh contracts will have to be made and new arrangements entered into in the event of the Great Eastern being sent out again, both between her owners and the con struction, company, and between the latter and the Atlantic Telegraph -'Company. So the question as may be supposed, will mainly resolve itself into one of finance, but it is confidently believed that ibeigreat ship will be again despatched withoa urjneces&ary de lay.
