HILL TO WITHDRAW.

The Senator Now Said to Be Preparing: a Better of Declination. According to a New York dispatch, Senator Hill is writing a letter of withdrawal, and that the letter will be placed before the public very soon. It is stated that the Senator has had this matter under consideration for the last month, and after considerable deliberation he has decided to withdraw irom the race at last. To get at the nature of the letter, or even surmise its contents, is a hard matter, but it is believed that the tenor of the missive will be in the direction of promoting harmony in the ranks of the party in Kew York, so as to unite the Democracy of that State on one candidate. Who that candidate will be it is bard to tell. Some are of the opinion that Hill will throw his weight and strength to Cleveland, and will assist in making his nomination unanimous, while others think that Cleveland would be the last man to whom he would throw his influence, and that his strength will go to some Western candidate—ex-Gov. Gray of Indiana or Senator Palmer of Illinois.
