From our Evening Edition of Saturday.

Locofocos In Order.

In expectation of witnessing some rare sport, we made it our business to be present at the gathering of the locofocos, on Thursday evening, at an early hour.

On entering the room, we found it occupied by several groups, all apparently engaged in discussing some absorbing topic. In fact, the most casual observer must have perceived at once, that something extraordinary had happened, to destroy the equanimity of the great Locofoco-Equal-Rights'-Democratic-Republican-Party, as our old friend Gandy Ming delights to designate them.

Desirous of ascertaining what incitation had produced the flushed cheeks and knitted eye-brows we saw around us, we stepped up to one of the groups and inquired the cause.

What! Have you not heard of the d-d ticket they have nominated at Tammany Hall?

They have nominated some of the d-dest aristocrats in the city.

And only two of our men!

They have even left off Slamm and old Robert Townsend, and put on such men as Jim J. M. Valentine, John I. Morgan, and Isaac L. Varian, and be dd to 'em.

Job Haskell never got a vote.

But they may nominate Ming.

D-d clear of it-they'll do nothing for us.

And Joe Hoxie will be elected by the d--d whig.

They will have to be beat two or three times yet, before they come to their lost senses.

I'm satisfied they'll do nothing for us. There's not salt enough left in Tammany to save her.

Yes, God d'n 'em, instead of uniting with us, the union has been the other way-they have come to terms with the d--d conservatives-their nominations show it.

The last speaker was interrupted by a big-whiskered fellow, with a sharp squeaking voice, calling the meeting to order. Thos. S. Day was appointed chairman, and Messrs. Fink and Chas. Hunter, his supporters; while Geo. W. Brower, Timothy Dayly, and A. V. Stephens, were created secretaries.

After settling the preliminary business of the meeting, Col. Ming read a letter from Daniel C. Pentz, declining the locofoco nomination for Assembly, assigning a press of business, &c. as the cause of his declining the great honor intended to be conferred on him by the locofocos.

Mr. Fox offered a resolution declaring the locofocos were not the Whig nor Tammany party! (Immense cheering.)

John Windt reported that his committee had waited on Dr. Hasbrouck, who had consented to accept the locofoco nomination for State Senator, and had pledged himself, if elected, to oppose the villainous mortgage and suspension laws.

Three cheers for Hasbrook.

Who-raw, who-raw, who-raw.

J. N. Crane moved a committee should be appointed to correspond with the Hon. Edward Curtis, the locofoco representative in Congress, demanding his reasons for voting against Cambreling's resolution against a National Bank; and what excuse he had to offer for voting against the bill for the divorce of bank and state.

A motion was made to go into ballot to elect a candidate for Assembly, in place of D. C. Pentz, resigned.

I nominate Wm. E. Skidmore.

Here some little discussion arose, as to whether Mr. Skidmore's nomination was in accordance with the rules of the party, which soon brought Bancker on the table.

Mis-ter Pres-i-dent, S.i-r-r-r, What does the gen-tle-men meap, S-i-r-r, by this oppe-sition, S-i-r-r-r-

I move the 4th article of the Constitution be read.

Shut up, Bancker; we'll make you teller.

I second it.

Bencker-Oh, well.

I move we go into ballot.

Second it.

Chair--Carried.

After the balloting, it was announced that Wm. E. Skidmore had 181 votes-A. V. Stephens, 138, and John Bogart, 3.

Mr. Skidmore was declared to be duly nominated- upon which he advanced to the desk and signed the pledge, and his nomination was unanimously confirmed.

Mr. Dyer moved that the locofocos held a meeting in the Park-their legitimate place of meeting-to confirm their nominations. Laid on the table till next meeting.

After appointing finance and printing committees, it was moved that the proceedings of the meeting should be published in the Evening Post and Morning Herald.

Chair.All in favor of publishing in Post and Herald say ay!

Ay-y y! from nine-tenths of the meeting.

Choir.-Contrary, no!

No-o! from a ruffled-bosom drummer and five loafers.

Chair.-Carried.

Divide the question!

No, no-it' carried.

Divide, divide!

Chair.All in favor of the Post, say ay !

Ay-y-y!

Chair.-Contrary, no! Carried.

Drummer.I move the Sun be substituted for Herald.

No, no-the Sun's sl-d loafer.

Yee, yes-Benne.. add blackguard-he black guards the locofocos.

No he don't-only when they make d-d fools of themselves.

He's opposed to shinplasters.

So he is to Joe Hoxie and the Helen Jewett clique.

Question on Herald-

Sun!

The Sun's a convict.

Herald-Herald!-Question, question.

Chair.All in favor of d, say ay!

A-y-y-y-y-y!

Chair.--Contrary, no!

Nomo!

Chair.-Carried.

Divide the house-divide the house, from the Drummer & Co.

Chair.All in favor of Herald, go to right of chair.- All opposed, to the left.

Ming,Which side is the Herald? I go in for the Herald.

So do I-and I-and I.

The whole assemblage rushed to the right of the chair, with the exception of the drummer and his illustrious coadjutors.

Three cheers for the Herald,

Who rew, who raw, who-raw, &c.

Those fellows are all whig, on the other side,

Yas that's e Horie man,

Hestie him oot-trop his wig-flour him,
On receiving those manifestations of regard from the supporters of the Herald, the drummer and his friends, the loafers, hastily made their exit down stairs,

I move the Daily News be added,

No, no!

Yes, yes, that's the paper was to unite the conservatives and loco's.-Ha! ha!! ha!!!

Give Barney a lift-Poor devil! he wants it.

Oh, d--n it, you'd better give him some cold vittles.

Question--question.

The question was put, and poor Barney was sent out of the room to look for the Times.-Requiescat in pace.

The meeting then adjourned-being the first orderly meeting the locofocos have held, since the "torch-light meeting in the Park."
