THE HON. JOHN MORRBSEr.

Th. World untruly charges US with "scotiing' at
its announcement Of JOHN M0RRIsSEY as the Demo
cratic candidate for Congress in tho Firth Distinct
Our criticism was provoked by the cowardly sneak
ing manner in which The World sought TO conceal or
disguise the fact Mr.. Morrissey is an eminent and
influential leader of the Democratic party and mem
Der of its General Committee. He is its regularly
nominated candidate for Congress, with moral cer-
tainty Of election He has bed like an OK in its be-
half so that John r. HofTman's vote will be st least
10, 900 larger than it would have been but for Mr.
Morrissey's money. Then why do not Hoffman and
his crowd stand up for their candidate like menl he
good enough to pay tho cost OF running Their ma
chine why not to be fairly recognized as their cand
date
We have not the honor Of Mr. Morrisseys personal
acquaintance; but, from common report, We judge
that no Is better than Of the candidates usually
presented from Tammany Hall and not so good as
others, while he is striking representative OF the
largest and most influential section OF the party next
to that composed Of peculators and municipal robber
TO which he does not belong. The narrow, lanatical
notions imbibed with our New England education
would not permit TO contemplate with rapture
Congress composed entirely of Morrsseys; but the
sending of one such as a specimen brick Of our metro
politan Democracy, we contemplate with unmingled
satisfaction. Mr.. Morrissey. are assured, has aban
doned the Prize Ring forever; but his right hand has
not forgot its cunning his left either; and, if any
Southern bully like Rousseau should undertake TO
"put upon him." that bully will get polished of in
about five seconds, and we shall heartily say Good
for New-York bit him again :" And as to the Wash
ingon "tger" that beast which gets hold Of so many
Of our verdant Members of Congress and strips them of
money, principle, character and selfrespect driving
them to do the dirty work Of tho Lobby vote for extra
compensation, for crooked Mileage, etc. etc., all we
have to say is Let that tiger try nip with our John,
and if be don't suddenly take to his heels, squeang
and yelling, then we can't make a Yankee guess.
Republican. Unonists Of the Fifth District you
are besieged and beseeched every corner to desert
your own candidate and vote for Nelson Taylor in
order to defeat John Morrssey. Tell those who thus
infest you that for every Democratic vote they will
give you for Gov. Fenton, you will give them a Re.
publican vote for Nelson Taylor but never with.

There is information in our City that great num-
Der of Roughs and Rebels from Philadelphia, Balti-

with impunity. And as no one can vote who is not
registered they to try at polls where there are
few or no Republicans, and there give tho names
