THE RELIGIOUS PAPERS IN FAVOR OF HAVE
MEYER.-The Journal Of Commerce, one of the
two anti-slavery organs Of Havemeyer, congrat-
ulates its readers that the religious press is in
favor Of the candidate Of the corrupt old harlot,
Tammany Hall, who sells her favors to the
highest bidder. This is very true The reli-
gious press is anti-slavery, including the Free
mans Journal, which is of no account. The
religious journals with one or two exceptions
who are not in favor of the Tammany Hall can
didate, are Sabbatarian, like Havemeyer, who
lately protested agai t funerals on Sunday.
He and they and the Journal Of Commerce be-
long to the Puritanical sect of stiffnecked,
straight-laced fanatics, who would turn Sunday
into day of sorrow and gloom, and deprive
the population of this great city of that inno-
cent recreation which is so necessary to the
health of body and mind, and is the best pre-
sentative against vice and crime. Should Have
meyer be elected the citizens of New York
may expect to be made prisoners in their own
houses every Sunday during his term

The TRIANGULAR FIGHT FOR THE MAYoRAI-
TY.-The pending Mayoralty election is about
the most perplexing affair that ever took place
in this city It is almost impossible to specu-
late upon its issue, upon any safe basis, from
one day to another. The chances of the three
prominent candidates seem momentarily chang
ing; but one thing is certain-that the corrup.
tons, trickeries and general degradation of
Tammany and all its associations have disgust
ed the public. From Tammany, it is believed,
the corruptions Of our Common Council origi-
mated. Tammany is looked upon as the nurse
ry of that political Generalization which per-
vades all official stations and all parties, and
it is universally supposed that the great body
of the democratic party have cut themselves off
entirely from that filthy nest To what extent
this detection may have reached cannot be
known until Mr. Havemeyers vote is counted.
But the varying prospects of the Mayoralty
candidates are something curious to contem-
plate Havemeyer, who was the strongest the
day after his nomination, has been apparently
decreasing in strength ever since; while Op-
dyke, who was the weakest candidate when he
was nominated, Is increasing. As to Wood,
there is mystery abouth him, and has been from
the beginning, which probably increases the
alarm with which be is viewed by the friends
Of both the other candidates. Nobody appears
to know his exact strength, but that he COM
mands powerful organization is universally
admitted. Never, perhaps, was there more
desperate energy exerted in contest
for the Mayoralty. The organs Of the diff
ferent factions are full Of advertisements, two
or three columns long, clarifying the nomi-
nees Of one party, and abusing those Of the

Others On the whole, this election exceeds In
intensity of interest, pefplexity and mystery.
the famous reform contest Of 1856, when Wood
was dethroned by combination Of all parties,
and Hemann was elevated to his place.
The contest has become 80 complicated that
for the last three or four days 1t is impossible
to make any calculation as to the result; but
the general opinion would seem to be that the
struggle is narrowing into . fight between Wood
and Opdyke. Singular enough, the only organ
Tammany has is the Times, originally black
republican abolition paper, and the virtuous
republicans, Disguised at its advocacy of the
falling fortunes of that abominable institution,
are cutting offtheir subscriptions by wholesale.
AS affairs stand now, 1t seems idle to predict
any issue to the Mayoralty election. We must
only wait until the votes are counted on Tues
day night next to discover the result.

nisfOrtunes which have lately afflicted he people
be repeated.
Freemsn Of Tennessee, We beseech YOU before YOU
give your confidence aud supporst 10 Col. NErHsR
LAND, to pause and consider the consequences of
the system which he defends and advocales.
He is in favor Of placing banking institutions be-
yOnd the controlOf The Legislature While the Rer-
resentatives Of the people may legisaie with regard
to your riglts-may change, medify, or abolish
any privilege which you enjoy, Col NETnKRLANp
contends that they should have no power 70 alter,
amend or repeal the charters of these wealthy and
powerful banking corporations when used 10 your
injury and oppression. He goes furiher. lie gives
TO banks the privilege of flooding the country with
small notes; thus increasing their profits and fore
ing upon yen a worthless sbin-plaster circulation
in Place Of gold and silver, which would become
more and more abundant under Democratic policy.
Listen, before you endorse such sentiments, to the
warnings 81 an old friend Of the people, who spent
his youth. his manhood, and his old age in your
service andin the services Of his county. Listen TO
words Of truth and sOberness from ANDREW JACK
son.
In his seventh annual message, speaking Of The
suppression Of The small notes of State Baaks, he
says:
If by this Tolicy, We can v;lness he ultimate.
suppression Of all bark Hills below tVeRy dollars II
is apparent that gold and silver viil take their
place, and become the principal circulating medium
in the common business Of the farmers and meehsn
les of the country The attainment OF such a resalt
will form era in the history OF our country, which
viii be dwet upon with delg By every true FREUD
of its liberty and independence Il will Tighten the
great tax which Que paper system has 50 long col
lecied from the earnings OF labor, and do more TO
revive aud perpelua'e those habits Of economy and
simplicity which are so congenial to the character
of Republicans, than eli the legislation which has
been attempted"
Again, in his eighth annual Message, he says:
g In the acts of several Of the Siaies prohibiting
the circulation of small notes. and the auxiliary en-
aotments CT Congress at the last session, fgrbi5dng
their reception paymeat on public account the
true policy of the country has been advanced,
aud a large portion Of the precious metals in
fused into circulating medium. These meas
ures will be probably followed up in due time
| by the enactment of State laws, banshing from
! circulation bank notes of a still higher demon
| inslion; and the object may be materially PRO.
/ noted by further acts Of Cong ess, forbidding
as fcaal agents, the employment Of such banks as
continue the issuance OF notes of low denominations
and throw impediments in the way of the cfreua-
ton of gold and silver"
Here we see that Gen. JACKSON was opposed to
the issuance of small bills by State Banks Col
NETHERLASD and his party in favor of The is
suauce Of such notes. It's fOr you TO decide which
is right.

Problems for Know Nothing Pnnd

ETODlenAh lOE Au0W NOLnlHE EumuGtss
If Knew Nothing Clerk of the House of Rep,
ressniatives, "elscted by the allied Opposition"
can make $50 600 in two years out OF an Office with
a salary Of 5000 per sDnum, how much would
the same party make if they had possession of all
the Offices Of government for four years?
If two Know Nothing Office holders in Tennessee
pocket over forty thousand dollars how much would
be stolen if they should obtain entire control of the
State treasury?
If, as Col NETHERLAND contends, it would be 60 all
right for the general government to spend one hun
bred millions of dollars annually, provided it was
"honestly expended" what additional amount
would be dishonesty expended under an Opposi-
ton administration, with such men as MATrEsox,
and WEIGH, and Cullen, and BURTON in office
If, as Mr.. BELL thinks, zone hundred millions
year might be economically expended in the admin
istratiOn of government" how much could Mr.
BELL and The southern wing Of his party manage
to dispose Of, with the Black Republicans to help
them economics?
Judging from the fact that the Black Republicans
have almost rendered the State governments which
they control, bankrupt and that the Know No hings
in Tennessee have pl0udered the State treasury and
the people to the amount of forty thousand dOla-s,
what would be the consequence if the united Op.
position" composed of Black Republicans and
Know NOthings, had control Of the Federal Governs
ment?
Since majority Of the Opposition have voted for
all the extravagant legislation which has increased
the expenditures Of government SO enormously, and
the body Of the Democracy have generally resisted
such legislation, what good object can be accom- lish
ed by turning out Deaoorac administration to give
place to the Opposition? Do the adyocsteG Of this
policy desire to give Mr.. BELL, and Col NETHER-
LAND an opportunity Of prscticing economy, at the
rate Of hundred millions year?
If 8 single Opposition House Of Representatives
can squander enc hundred and thirteen millions of
dollars in spite Of the votes of the Democrats how
much would they spend if there were no Democrats
in Congress to watch them?
We hope some Of The learned Know Nothing or
gans ard orators, "whO know how to read, write
and cipher" viii give US solution of these pro-
blems al an early day.
