greater eclat than usual The weather could not
have been more propitious. The shone forth
brightly, and the sky was cloudless; the atmosphere
mild and Sprng-lke, and but for the leaAess trees

decked in gay eolors and flags Aoated from all of the
public buildings. Old Tammany doomed out large,
and decorated with taste than we have ever
before noticed Several banners, with appropriate
Inscriptions appeared in front Of the balcony.
The American Protestant Association turned out in
honor of the day. and paraded through the lower part
of the city, and proceeded to Brooklyn, where they
marched through the principal thoroughfares They
made good turn out and attracted much attention.
The Order of United Americans, with several mill
tary companies from the different regiments of the
First Division formed in procession about o'clock
in the afternoon, and marched through the Park,
where they were reviewed by the Mayor and Com
mon Council. The procession after marching through
Broadway, Canal Hudson and other streets, proceed
ed to the Academy Of Music, where an Grafton was

The Candidates for Congress.

We know nothing worse of Mr.. Had
ley than that he is one of the modern
thorough-going, pro-slayery, Buchanan
Democrats. Whilst he will, no doubt,
profess free, liberal, and anti-slavery SEN
| timents, it is nevertheless fact that he
is thorough and devoted partisan, and
will hesitate ut no measure resolved on
as party measure. Last winter, as we
have before stated, it was attempted to
get through the legislature of this state
resolutions Of sympathy for freedom in
Kansas. Mr. Hadley, while protesting
to beas much in favor of freedom as any
person, voted against these resolutions
| from beginning TO end and against eve
~ feature of them. And this, not be-
cause perhaps, Mr.. IIadIey had any spe-
cial luminosity against freedom, but sim
Iply because he thought L" democracy -
demanded it of him. Such would be his
course in Congress. Whatever the south
may determine upon in Congress as ode
mocracy" Mr.. H., unless we much mis-
take him, will stand ready to endorse
with his vote. In short, if our people
want one of the Irregular democrats to
represent them in Congress, who will
help to continue, to strengthen, and per
petuate the democracy" we have been
having for the past four years, Mr.. Had
ley is just the man.
OF Judge Potter we have before spo-
ken. We say it because we believe it.
that in the whole district there is not q
better than is he as the candidate and re.
preventative of the republican party and
principle. He is in favor of freedom
/ from the very instincts of his nature, and
can only falter in his devotion to the prfn
ciples of freedom when he ceases to be
himself But he is in no respect fanati
cal. While he will oppose with mben
ding purpose any further aggressions Of
slavery, lie viii hold sacred every article
OF the constitution and every compro
mise pertaining to it. He is able, cour
teous, firm, dignifed, of Scrupulous In
tegrity, of winning and popular person
al manners. He is also irreproachiblt
lin his morals and ali his private and pub
lie life. Every lover of freedom, every
Republican in the district should enlis
warmly in his support, for no better mar
will ever be presented for their suffrage
than John +. Potter.
