For himself be bas no care; for Congress he has no care; even for the defunct Mozart Hall menagerie he has no care, for its memory is never honered even s0 much as @ mention in bis new address to the electors of the Ninth Congressional district. The great Jeremy Diddler of city politics only desires to sit in Cougross as a popu lar rebuke “to those who uttered the malicious falye hood that during the war he was a robel sympathizer, But who ever did suppose any such thing?

Only the smal) mistake bappened to be that he was on the side opposed to the government snd to his own section, He now desires “to be placed in an official position, where, unrestrained by partisan obligations, I may follow the dictates of my own judg- ment for the public good;” which, being interpreted, means that he is the candidate for the radical secret support, and would like to en! pledged to apy political party and with a broom hoisted at his masthead, “bound for Cowes and a market.” At least this is the interpretation which persons put upon it, Like a piece of poor calico, it has not tast colors; it wil not wasb. With regard to the other Congressional districts, things remain much the same as at last advices, with only a few exceptions, which will be noticed. Most im- portant of these is the probable acceptance, by ‘MAJOR GENERAL DANIEL K. SICKLES, of the democratic Union nomination for Congress in the Fourth or down tewn district, which (nomination) of itself ts equivalent to an election, The probabilities are that General Sickles will receive the enthusiastic sup- port of the radicals, and that Tammany Hall, Mozart Halil, will dare to put forward any candidate ageinst him. While we thus present the gratifying spectacle of honoring a truc and gallant soldier of the republic, it is proper to state that he is fully qualified for the position to which he aspires, and upon whose name all classes of the community will gladly concentrate. The regular Mozart nomince in the district is already quaking in his shoes and anxiously inquiring if there be any truth in the report that General Dan Sickles is going to run. individual and to dispel his doubis we assure him that General Sickies will be the next representative in Con- gress from this city and State, for the Fourta District, TUR FIFTH DISTRICT.
