THK CONGRESSIONAL EoaISATIoSs--A Coon
ExsSrrE--We have repeatedly pointed out to the
different parties opposed TO Lincoln's election
The folly q making three or four different noni-
nations for Congress ia each district, and thus
dividing the strength Of the opposition, which
should be relieiously combined ia order 10 de-
Tea, ,he republican candidate. II would be a
disnal ard sbsmeful thing 10 see this great
commercial conservative metropolis sending
sbolition members 70 Congress. Yetsuch will b.

ines ard inssne ambition Of some Of the fac
tonisis az the democratic party be not crushed
cut by 'he good sense Of the people.
We are very glad to perceive tbs. the people
CT the Eighth district have followed our coun.
sels, and tia, two OF the opposition candidates
have retired from The Geld thus leaving II open
for a fair fight between stoiitionism add con-
serva'ism, the issue a which cannot be doubtful
The sane policy should be adopted 10 every

in this city, to be voted for on the sixth OF No
venber. 1t would seem as though the nomina-

and erog shops OF the city, and with fe~ exc-p
tons brought GU, the lowest and most worthless
bula'ions. A majority Of Ah-m hove ne~ss s.ea

acquainted with men and politics In thi- city to
tell who they are or where they come from, a,
least large portion Of them.
We see In the list Of names those who are
figuring as horse jockeys s, run suckers, oysters.
larnplighters, cattle drivers. shoulder hitters,
forty thieves, number of the gridirou p .rry
OF the last Legislature as well rs eeverl Il per

Grand Jury. There are, 1t Is true several worthy
and honorable gentlemen placed 10 nomin .tioa
but hardly enough to leaven the lot, aud un.vs-

we may expect to see a delegation fron this
city In the next Assembly whose OPERATIONS
Will excel the celebrated forty thieves Com uon

This stste Of affairs Is the result OF the tricks aud
corruption that have 60 long been prscticeo by
the different parties In the city. until our OFF s
positions are looked upon by the raboe rs so
many streets and avenues that will lead them

the most and descend the lowest into the ulthy
pools are now the persons best quaiif-d for our
Law makers, under this new mode Of omInations.
There Ii yet some hope left with tie people,
and we zee that the masses generally pay 10
attention to party lines, party oreeds OF organ
izations, and seem TO rejoice that Allegiance 10
party nominations Is no longer virtue, aud 81
trust that they will continue in tia, way Of
thinking until the ballot boxes are closed
on the evening OF the sixth of November
We trust that no person will be led by the

surprising that the Christians should desire to

Damascus, and the rising Of the Mussnimans

the fact we have to deal with, and only proves,
