/ MOZART EXPECTANT AND--DIsAPPOiNTED.
At an early hour last evening large number Of

under the musical soabriquet of Mozart, assembled
at their headquarters in Broadway eager and anxious
to know the result of tie days struggle. high hopes

Hall.
Al about u O'Clock the meeting was caled-but

Judge Thompson proceeded to do 80 by saying,

men "a Mayor Wood and Daniel S. Dickinson. This
sentiment ELECTED very great amount OF indescnbs

our municipal rights, the friend and advocate Of the
Constitution as it is, the enemy of Southern Seces

that he would be reelected Mayor of the City OF
New-York-whereat the noise became greater In
quantity and worse in quality, and Judge Thompson
sat down.
The Chairman continued to announce the returns
as they came in enlivening the time by remarks Of
a witty patriotic, amusing, inspiring character,
which kept the crowd in good humor When vote
favorable 10 Wood was announced the most terrible
frenzy appeared to seize them, ard they gave vent
10 their feelings in such continuous roar that for
few moments there was evident danger to delicate
tympanums. On the other hand, if the report did
no, coincide with the dominant feeling, confusion
of tongues ensued, among which could occasionally
be distinguished such expressions as "Taint sensl'
Bile" Send il back where it come from, &c. The
general harmony Of the proceedings was agreeaoly
varied by some individual more patriotic than dia'

with the views of his hearers wbereupon there was
sudden rush toward the delinquent, and cries OF

was against the fortunes Of the house OF Fernando
The Chairman ceased speaking and bent all his
faculties upon extracting crumb OF comfort from
the stubborn figures which were displayed upon his
desk. An ominous silence began gradually to creep
over the crowd more figuring and whispering AZ the

ties OF most decidedly blue character. The Chair
man went on to say that Mr.. Gunther also led Mr..
Wood some 100 or 500 votes, when the whistles be-
came more decidedly blue, and there began to be q
