G." Tie Hon ANDREW Tracy. member Of
Congress from this District. does not desire
nomination as :. candidate fer reelection
he reason, we understand to he that his
health, which has rot been quite Good for
many years, has been impaired by a residence
at Washington.
This is the year for the election of members
OF Congress in this State. The District Com
n:ittcc ior this Congressional District will
doubtless issue atail in due season for the
domination of a candidate to succeed Mr..
Tracy, whose term will expire the4th dav of
next March. Mir. Tracy's course has been
perfectly satisfactory to his Wig constituents
and TO all except those who love slavery more
t.lan freedom
