The Now York City Election.
The tail goes with the hide. The late elec-
ton ia New York city shows that the Democ-
| racy-the genuine hard>isted, brass -knuckled
artcle--in that city belong TO Fernando Wood
lie owns the party by some Eve thousand ma
jority. Il now behooves the Fifth Avenue gen.
temen to take their Mr.. Havemeyer and fall
into line behind the PAtricks and Michaels and
the slung shot aristocracy of Mercer street.

political distinction-and when next they want
the Republicans to turn in aud help restore
the discipline Of their party, let them commence
by keeping civil tongues in their heads and
learning to speak the truth.
Az against Mr.. Havemeyer, We are rejoiced
that Wood 10 elected. Scarce one month ago,
Tsmmany Hall, seconded by Watts Sherman &
Co., Of Fifth Avenue Hotel notofiety, perpe-
trated a series Of fagrant ISLANDERS upon the Re-
publican party, in the persons Of Senator Sew
ard, Senator Hale, Gov. Chase, and others
These were the "Forbes" falsehoods Not con-
| tent with using the original "Forbes" libels,
they (the Fifth Avenue gentry,) published
circular, stating that the letters In question
we're written to Col. Forbes-not BY him. And
to crown all, the silk stocking slanderers add-
ed that these letters proved concius;veiy that
Senator Seward, Senator Hale and Gov. Chase
| we're accessories before the fact to John
| Browns invasion of Virginia. To this day the
charges remain unretracted. They lie offen-
| sivey against the Republican party as on the
day they were first uttered. Ii We had been
citizens of New York, Fernando Wood and his
| ragamuffins might have ducked the whole C ON.
mi,tee in the North River ere we should have
cast ballot for their nominee for any Office Of
| public trust. We repeat, we are glad Mr..
'Wud" is elected, since it has been proven that
Mr.. Opdyke had no chance. As between Tam>
| many aud Mozart Hall, we take it there is as
much difference twixt tweedle>dum and twee-
die dee, and not more. Wood and his gang
make no pretence to respectabilty.. The con-
cern over the way puts on much of the gen.
tity, which consists in patent leather boots,
gold spectacles, and white chokers; but neither
Wood nor all Of his shoulder hitting fraternity
ever concocted anything so.unblushingly false
as the Tammany Fifth Avenue address, issued
Just prior to the late State election. We trust
the fruits Of that performance are sweet to all
| hands.
| WHo ARE THE AGrrAroRs.-The New York
Herald's Washington correspondent thus fixes
the responsibility for delaying the organization
OF the House upon the Administration Senators
/ and Representatives. This is the complaint Of
one Of their own iriends:-
"In less than two hours after Congress assem-
bled, the nigget question was sprung in both
Houses-in the Senate by Mr.. Mason, and in the
House by NJ. Clark, of Missouri. The organi-
zston Of tho House and the public business
must be delayed to advertise the notorious anti
slavery book called The impending Crisis.'-
| The Republicans have been trying to give cir>
have failed until'now, when the Congress OF the
United States have entered upon the work Of
| advertising it. -t
| "From present appearances the House will
not be organized for q week, and the only subs
ject to be discussed will be Helper and his I'M
pending Crisis : afterwards some Of the negro
drivers will pitch into Weston's Progress OF
Slavery in the United States.' During this time
the appropriation bills and other public business
must be sacrificed. Lovejoy, Of Illinois, and
| Ashley, OF Ohio, are said to be ripe with an
swers in ridicule of Clark, of Missouri The
prevailing policy Of the Republican Members ol
the House seems to be 10 let the Administration
party talk against organizing the House and take
the responsibility
We Learn that over 900 were paid out
for hogs at Pella last week. There were seyera
thousand dollars paid out for the same purpose
in this city during the latter part Of last week
and there win be several thousands more paic
out the coming week. The price paid on foot
ranges from Ssa$S 50 per hundred. The pro-
ceeds from the sale Of hogs in Mahsska county
will reach much higher figures than at first sup
posed, and the benefit derived therefrom by ou
farmers will enaLle many of them to pay Of
their debts and escape the Injurious effects o
sheriff and constable sales. There is littl
doubt that the remaining hog and cattle crol
will realize to the farmers Of this county owe
$50, ,OOO, between this and next March. Thi
paid by them to A. B. and c., will lqudat
