Mr. Zimmerman, the Democratic candidate for Congress has the reputation of being a very successful furniture dealer and undertaker, over in Fulton county. He will be allowed to remain in the peaceful pursuit of the profession which he ornaments. ' < The Tenth district will have a Republican in congress next time.

They have at last quit that kind of foolishness, and great thereat will be the democratic disappointment. *
