Show Democratic Influx. Some dozen gentlemen representing the celebrated "Americus Club" of New York were in town yesterday, and left in the afternoon after-noon for the west. These gentlemen are strong in the faith of Tammany, and combine politics and pleasure in the jolliest way imaginable, so that our "devil" not inappropriately named their institution the "Merry Cuss Club." Clam-bakes, yaething and grand balls make an intermixture of pleasant business to the frolicksome game of carrying elections which they have a nice way of doing in Gotham. "Boss" Tweed is the parent of the Club, but does not accompany this party, the duties of sachem for the trip devolving upon the Vice-President of the Club. ! |
