Ihave the pleasure to inform you that our Committee of 70 appointed to nominate proper characters to represent this City in the assembly ⟨   ⟩ and Congress, have rejected G. L. Mumford and George Clinton Junr. The Clinton party warmly supported Mumford. Peter Townsend one of our warm friends openly denounced him. We carried by a hansome vote. The Committee is ours. Of course the Assembly Ticket will be also. G. Clinton was given up without much struggle. I have this moment received a letter from one of the country members of our Legislature, which states that a small majority of them were in favour of the Washington nominations, but thought it best to leave the thing till after the Election
