Col. C0RCoRAN.-The New York ECeafng
CORAN Cor Sheriff Of that city, and anticipates
the objection that the Colonel is under lock
and key, by the characteristic boast that there
are men enough who will vote FOR him to release
him from his confinement and bring him back
10 New York. This is a continuance of the
"On to Richmond" hurrah, which, since the
battl" of NIanassa, has Disguised all mankind
Col. CoRcoRAN is not likely soon to act as
Sheriff of New York. He has, however, one
qualification which the Ercaipg Post has
omitted to mention. The absurd creature, as
stupid as he is sullen, who affected such in
tense irish feeling that he would not call out
his regiment TO do honor to the Prince of
Wales, was once a Queens policeman in Ire
land! lie has some other qualifications, hay
ing kept dram shop in New York, and
amassed some money by relieving the drunken
yaGabonds and politicians of the city OF their
loose change. We not surprised at the in
tense modification and rage of the regular off
GERS Of the old army, that they are compelled
to recognize such creatures as CoRCoRAN us
officers

him, for long time, from being indicted into
