As Blackjack told you, you can replace at least the loop by using memcpy:
memcpy ((void*) 832, N, sizeof (N));
The mousedemo program from the samples does also use a sprite on the C64. Just
have a look at it.

You may want to have a look at the linker config file that determines the
memory setup. If you aren't using a config file, the standard one comes into
effect, which means that your program starts at $801 and ends at $D000 on the
C64. The compiler/linker will not access memory outside this range. If you
want to change this (for example because you need a hires screen somewhere),
you will have to use a custom linker configuration.
