Elections, in a general way, are almost en¬ tirely "Without our province ; but so far as the several offices of record in the counties of New Tork and Kings are concerned, no persons are more vitally interested than our subscribers as to the men chosen to conduct them. And we allude-to the coming election only because such a choice is to be made in each county; New York electing a Clerk, and Kinsfs a Clerk and Register. Of coui-se we do not pretend that a JDerson of any uncommon qualifications is required to fill any of these positions. The incumbent should have some acquaint¬ ance with the details of his office, however, and be capable in selecting honest, careful, and courteous subordinates, for it is with them the community are thrown mostly into con¬ tact. Lilie master, like man, applies with peculiar force to political affiliations, and this might be beneficially remembered in making a selection from amongst the candidates who will offer themselves. In New York but one organization—Tam- many_lias so far presented a candidate for the Clerkship. This gentleman, Mr. William "Walsh, is a native of Ireland, but his father removed to this city when the subject of this sketch was three years old. He is, tlierefore, essentially a New Yorker, having since resided in the lower wards of this city.' He is about thirty- seven years of age, was a member of the Legis¬ lature in 1860 and 1861, and in the Fall of 1861 was elected to the Board of Aldermen, and in 1863 President of that Board. From that time until the reorganization of Tammany, in 1872, he has been connected with Demo¬ cratic organizations opposed to Tammany^ In 1864 ho was nominated by the McKeon Democratic organization ^for Congress against Morgan Jones, and made a strong run. Since the reorganization of Tammany he has been, one of Mr. Kelly's assistants and co-workers in controlling and shaping the policy of the organization. In Kings the nominations are full, the Re¬ publicans having nominated Mr. Nelson Schaurman for the Clerkship against the Dem¬ ocratic candidate and- present incumbent, George H. Herrman. We can only say for Mr. Herrman that his administration has been T«r7 satisfactory, aad if lie is defeated it will be simply because of a stronger personal in¬ fluence on the part of his adversary, and can in no wise be considered a criticism on his official career. For Register, the Republicans name Mr. Silas B. Dutcher, a gentleman eminentl}' worth}'^ the strong support he receives from that party, and if, in alluding to his opponent on the Democratic side of the house, Mr. William Barre, we express ourselves more dis¬ tinctly, it is for the reason that, as deputy Reg¬ ister, it has been our lot to come into contact with him more or less almost daily duiing the many years the Real Estate Record has existed. We can vouch for his fidelity to bus¬ iness, his universal affability toward those seeking information from him, and his general earnestness in conducting the aflairs of the office, so that the petty annoyances too often confronting one in public places have been the exception iu tbat office.
