THE ELECTION. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) Saturday evening.
I he election excitement here has not yet subsided ; and, f fO m some motives best known to those interested, one of our Thames paperß keeps up the delusion that Mr. Williamson is still ahead, and has a chance of the Superintendeney. The feelingexcited by the statements of the paper in question has been taken advantage of by some knowing one, who, previous to the arrival of the Auckland steamer yesterday, succeeded in getting some flats to take up bets on Williamson against odds. The end of the wharf is thronged on the arrival of each steamer by porsons conuected with both parties anxious to hear the latest news. Elections are not my forte ; 1 will turn to a subject that I understand, and the only one in which I take an interest— that is the state of the field.
