Our Next Mayor.

J. Sherman BropnH was at last nominated for
Mayor at Tammany on Saturday evening, after
several long evenings Of intensely excited canvass
ing and balloting His friends were very jealous
and persevering and have scarried their point
though we think less effort would have been re-
auired to nominate almost any other man
(hessrs. Brownel and Leonard the Tammany can
ddates for the two Offices to be filled by the vote Of
the whole City, are both residents of the Ninth
WMd)
So the People Of our City are to choose whether
WILLIAM V. BRADY or J. Sherman Broenel
shall be their Chief Magistrate for the ensuing year.
We are content to go to the Polls on that issue. II
the great body Of the voters will but allow their
judgments fair play-if those who do not already
know will but candidly inquire who these two men
are, how each Of them has achieved the distinction
accorded him and deserved still farther emnence
and then give independent sufrages, we shall be
more than content
After the contest is over, should Brownell happen
to be chosen, we shall hear hundreds who have not
been near the Polls denouncing the result as dis
graceful to the voters and to popular Government.
We protest against any such inference. Whatever
dscredit there may be in the premises will justly
attach not to those who went to the Polls and voted
a. they thought best but to those who, knowing
that Mr.. Brady ought to be chosen. utterly neglect
ed to discharge their conscientious duty. Reader
will yox be one Of these?

Po,rer Of Music on Nyages.-A Curl
Gus story is told of the effect Of sacred
music upon party Of Cossacks, who Ell.
tered church at Dresden, attracted BY
the sound Of the organ, and while it was
playing continued silent and attentive, bu,
no sooner did the music cease & the clergy
man commence his service, than they be-
gan to exhibit strong signs of impotence.
At length, one Of these rude soldiers,
stealing softly up the steps of the pulpit,
unobserved by the minister, startled him
not little by tapping him on the shoulder,
in the midst Of his harangue, and inviting
him, as well as he could, by signs, accom-
panied with all sorts Of grotesque eest-
ures, to descend, and no longer interrupt
the qualification which he and his com.
rades received from the organ.
History tells US Of an old officer, (un.
der the great Duke Of Marlborough, J who
was naturally 50 timid as to show the ut.
most reluctance to an engagement until
