•, -A. WORD TO SOBER MEN.—The time
has come for appeals to the reason and
not the passion of men, and it is fit
thatirrthe beginning of the campaign
before us that something should be
said in reference to the mode of con
ducting it. In former years, and more
especially during the past six years,
when the pulse of the nation was agi
'fated, from 'centre to circumference,
and, the people lived on excitement ;
we were accustomed to hoar passion
ate harangues, abusive epithets and
multiplied threats of vengeance from
the speakers and through the press of
both parties—each indeed vieing with
each other in the use of terms that left
the impression that the speaker was
familiarly acquainted with bar-room
conversation, if ho was not himself a
tippler; Men left political gatherings
and read political papers, filled with
disgust for the former and holding in
contempt the' latter. They saw there
was nothing to tie accomplished by
such a course, and many have we heard
denounce politics for this reason, and
vowing they would never attend an
other election. And indeed we could
not blaine them for their resolve; for
what inducement is it to a sober-think
ing man to attend a meeting where ho
will hear nothing but abuse, or road
journals wherein there is nothing but
hard names and general vituperation.
He ettunot lend . his assistance to any
thing which encourages such folly ;•
and it is unreasonable to suppose a
thinking man, who studies politics be
cause he desires to got posted upon the
propar issues, and who votes on the
side that he thinks is best for the Min
try, would hold in high estimation
one who makes use of politics to show
his command of calumny and slang-
Candid men take pleasure in listening
to aspeaker who argues his position;
but one who indulges in 'epithets is a
dead weight to any 'party and had bet
ter stay at home. We hope to hear no
speaker who cannot talk reasonably
upbn the issues in the present cam
paign. Nor is it necessary, in our opin
ion, to abuse the candidates. Their
record as public men, and not as pri
vate individuals, as it is •rovealed
through reliable sources, is all that
necessary to show the people what re
liance could be-placed in them as rulers
or_office-holders. It is a useless waste
of ammunition to berate candidates for
public position for any private mis
fortune or any private individual er
ror. As it has boon, a candidate no
matter how gentlemanly, is made a
blackguard, and no matter how sensi
ble, ho is made a fool. More honesty
and truth is needed in :polities as in
overy thing else, and if there is, to be
any, „reform in this direction we hope
to see it displayed now. Neither par
ty will lose anything- by candidness
and-truth, but they will each be the
losers if they choose speakers for the
stamp, who talk snail "stuff" as will
instill, the intelligence and manliness of
their hearers, or encourage newepa
persyvhioh aro filled'. with the "dap-.
trap' ) that sensible; neon will not be
lieve...' ,
THE BLOATED BONDHOLDERS. -Lind
Sub-Treasury in Wall street is now en
gaged in paying off the July gold in
terest on the five-twenty bonds, and
the New York Times thinkS the linos
of men and women. who maybe seen
daily waiting for , their • interest forms
an instructiie-spectaelelor the repudi
ating Pendlotonians. Thoy will ob
serve how small a proportion of the
bondholders, after all, look any ways
bloated, and how few of them drive af
ter their interest in gorgeous carriages
and how very few need a cart to con
voy their gold to their homes. They
will obServe what a very large num
ber of thorn have but one or two con- I
pone from bonds of a small denomina
tion—say from $5OO bonds or $l,OOO
1 1
bonds, and they will discover how
many of them receive from $5O to $l2O
as their half yearly income from their
small investments. - They will notice
how plainly attired most of them are,
and bow promptly thy depart after
getting the small sums duo to attend
to the pressing duties of life, If the
repudiating Pendle.tonian should take
the trouble to get acquainted with a
few of them, ho would probably find
that they happened to be small trad
ers, or mechanics, or clerks, or work
ingmen, or professional people, who
bad invested their savingsin the Gov
ernment funds at a time when the
country was in pressing need of their
assistance. After such a view of the
bloated bondholders, and such an idea
of the people who hold the greater
part of the. National securities, the
Pehdletonian Democrats would per
haps come to wiser and honester con
eluSions.
ze-Cien. Frank Blair, the Democrat
ic nominee for Vice President said in
the Now York ratification meeting:
"What civilized people upon earth
would refuse to associate with them
selves in all the rights and dignity of
their country such men as Leo and
Johnston ? [Cheers and shouts of "No
one, no ono."] What civilized coun
try upon the earth would fail to do
honor to those who, though fighting
for an erroneous cause, yet distinguish
ed themselves by gallantry never sur
passed (immense cheers) in that con
test for which they are sought to be
disfranchised and exiled from their
homes,—in that contest in-which they
have proved themselves worthy to be
our peers. [Loud applause."]
It is this thing of palavering the
Southern leaders that gives tone to the
belief that with the Democratic party
once in power all the rebels, from Jeff.
Davis down to the humble prifate,
would be fully recognized in all their
rights and permitted to rule. It is
this thing of palavering the rebel sot
diers by calling them "the peers" of
Union soldiefs that shows just where
the preference of the Democrats lies,
and with that party again in power,
the rebel-soldiers would be given the
offices and the Union boys would have
to take a back seat.
"Grant, if ho is elected, say the
Democrats, will be a tool of the Radi
cals. Was Grant a "tool" of anybody
when he told the rebel Gen. Buckner,
"I propose to move immediately upon
your works," or when ho demanded
an "unconditional surrender" of the
rebel General Pemberton, or when in
tho Virginia campaign ho said: "I
propose to fight it out,on this line, if
it takes all summer," or when he told
the rebel General Leo, "I propose to
receive the surrender of the army of
Northern Virginia upon the following
terms." Grant proposed his own terms,
fo , :ght his own battles, and won his
own victories, and it is the selfsame
Grant wlicL will lead the
the
forces on to victory at the ballot box
next November.
gir Andy Johnson has not yet en
dorsed the nomination of Seymour and
Blair. He has not yot , been able to
see where the Democratic organiza
tion has endorsed his fight with Con•
gross. He has done the hew work
for the Democracy for three gars past,
but be bus not been willing to go far
enough to satisfy the demands of the
leaders of the party, and was rejected
as their candidate.
On the same day that the battle of
Gettysburg was being fought, Horatio
Seymour waslomenting a riot in the
city of Now York. The following are
his words on that occasion you
not create, revolution when you say
that your persons may be rightfully
seized, your property confiseated,your
homes entered ? Are you not exposing
yourselves, your own interests, to as
great a peril as that which_youthreat
en us ? Remember this : that the bloody
and revolutionary doctrine of public ne
cessity can be proclaimed by a mqb• as
well as by a q-overnmeizt." (Applause.)
The N. Y. Tribune truly says:--
Grant and Colfax will be elected, but
only by bard and steady work. Hite.
publican effort should henceforth be
relaxed, under the presumption that
it wea needless, we should be badly
beaten. Fraudulent votes alone would
beat Grant, as they boat Henry Clay
in '44. Systematic preparation,persis•
tent vigilance, can alone preserve the
ballot-boxes from wholesale pollution.
Horatio Seymour,
Democratic can
didate for President, during the iviir
used these words: Hit is true that
slavery must be abolished to save this
Union, then the people of the South
should be allowed to withdraw them
selves from the Government which
cannot give thorn the protection guar
anteed by its terms. '
Seymour's declaration before the
New York Convention that he could
not accept the nomination for the
Presidency, because it would" put his
party and the country in peril, may bC
accepted as a.s.irtual admission_of hie
defeat at _the coming election.
Political Chip Basket.
Wade Hampton, of South Carolina,
ono of the Contbderato Generals, and a
delegtite to the Democratic Convention
at New York, at a vory recent anni
versary of Leo's college asserted that
"The course,for which Jackson (Stone
wall) and Stuart fell cannot be in vain;
but, in some form will yet triumph."
Democrats can have nothino• ' more
to say about the Freedmen's Bureau
or the Alilitary Governments of the
South, for Congress has passed a bill
providing for the discontinuance of the•
former, and the latter aro being remov
ed as fast as the Southern States com
ply with the reconstruction acts.
The nomination of Seymour and
Blair is received with rejoicing by the
rebels of the South. They know where
Seymour's sympathies were during
the war, and they also know where
Blair now stands when ho says in a
recent letter that the President elect
should declare all the reconstruction
acts null and void.
An examination of official records
show that General Grant's losses incur
red in his Virginia campaign, were
smaller than those of his predecessors.
Then there is this difference—Grant
wound up the rebellion, and the others
helped to do so. "
Last fall when discussing the rela
tive merits of Grant and Sherman,
Frank Blair said : "Grant knows more
than Sherman and all the rest banged
into one." Democrats should now
have nothing more to say about Grant's
incapacity.
Mr. Horatio Seymour told the Dem
ocratic Convention that if he accepted
the nomination for President ; he would
be a dishonored and defeated man.—
November next will show him to be a
• true prophet.
The standing witticism of President
Johnson, in reply to the question --
"How do the Democratic nominations
take ?" is that "they take like the
small pox, and will be hard to get rid
of."
"Let us have. peace," says General
Grant. "Disperse the State Govern
ments," says General Blair. Between
two such Generals whom will you
prefer—the one for peace, or the one
for war.
The Democrats claim 100,000 ma
jority for Seymour in New York, in
November next. Can they explain
then why ho was beaten by Gov. Fen
ton in 1861 by 8,293 votes ?
Democrats will please remember
that Frank P. Blair, their candidate
for Vico President, at one time not
only advocated political, but social
equality- for the negro.
Frank Blair, the Democratic candi
date for Vico President, threatens to
undo the Reconstruction acts of the
past three years, and thus keep the
country in turmoil four years longer.
There is no use:in trying toidisguise
the fact that the people are for the hero
of Vicksburg, Fort Donclson and Rich
mond—General U. S. Grant.

SEYMOUR AND THE REBEL OOM-
hIISSIMERS.
AN IMPORTANT REVELATION
Prom the Ohio Slott: Journal .1 al y 11
We publish to day, the affidavit of
Captain James Sidney Hill, to which
allusion has heretofore been made by
us. The publication of this important
affidavit has been purposely delayed
with the hope and expectation that
Horatio Seymour would be nominated
for the Presidency by the Convention
at New York.
It will be remembered that when
reference was first made to the exis
tence of this testimony Coy. Seymour
exhibited ungovernable rage, and not
only took occasion to vouch for Lis
own innocence, but to attack, with
savage emphasis, all officers . and
agents of the government whom he
suspected of having been instrumental
in making known to the State Depart
ment the nature of his relations with
the rebel Commissioners in Canada.
The writer, who, in 1864, was Con
sul of the United States in New Bruns
wick, having been appointed to that
office by President Lincoln in Septem
ber, '6l, had occasion to transmit to the
Secretary of State information concern
ing the movements of the rebel corn
missioners, Clement C. Clay, and Jas.
P. Holcombe, and it especially became
his duty to make known to the Gov
ernment whatever facts were known
in the British Provices concerning the
nature of the "mission" of those notor
ious enemies of the United States. Ap
plication will be made to the State De
partment for copies of the full corres
pondence on the subject, which, when
obtained, will be made public.
The important fact was then well
known that the prime purpose that
the Davis Government hadin sending
Conimissioners to Canada, was to array
the State of New York in hostility td
the Federal Government. Captain
Hill's testimony establishes beyond
question the fact that such was the con
&fence reposed in Horatio Seymour,
then Governor of New York, that the
rebel chiefs did not hesitate to address
him on a subject which they knew was
dour to his heart—the triumph of the
Confederacy, and opened official cor
respondence with him, as with a tried
and trusted agent of their own.
Clement C. Clay, who organized the
raiding and piratical expeditions from
Canada into the United States, ex
pressed his entire willingness to visit
Ogdensburg, New York, knowing that
Seymour would give him safe pass
port through the "Sovereign State."—
It will be proved hereafter that Clay
sent dispatches to and received dis
patches from Albany while at Halifax,
Quebec and Montreal; that messages'
were passing between-the rebel com
missioners and the rebel sympathizing
Governor, for a :period of almost two
months; and we believe also that the
exact nature of these communications
will, ere long, be fully made known.—
So much by way of explanation to-day.
We shall pursue this subject until the
treachery and treason of Horatio Sey
mour, the worst and wiliest enemy of
the Republic,i are laid bare. We pro
pose to see the thing through; and
shall fight it out on this line.-
The following is an exact copy of
the original affidavit now on file in the
State Department of the flnited State 4
Government:
Affidavit of Cairt. ,fas - Sidney Hill
CONSULATE OF TILE UNITED STATES, 1
St. John, New Brunswick.
On this second day ofJune,'64, perSonally
appeared tame me, J. Q. Howard, United
States Consul at St. John, New Brunswick,
James Sidney; Hill, who solemnly made oath
to the following facts :
"I am now about twenty-eight years of
age; I was born in Parish of St. Bernard,
Louisiana; I am the son of Jefeme Philip
Hill, of New Orleans, who has always been
a devotalUnion man. I was educated as a
civil engineer at West Point, "Virginia.
"In the year 1801, in the month of April,
I was carried away by the intense excitement
that prevailed, and entered the rebel service
as captain of a company of tolunteers ; I
served at the first battle of Manassas, at the
battles of Richmond, at the time of M'Clel
lan's advance, and also took part in the
battle of Antietain ; was wounded in the sev
en days' fight near Richmond ; was sent to
Savannah as engineer on the staff of Gen. G.
IV. Smith, and obtained leave of absence
to go to Wihnington ; from Wilmington I
ran the blockade on the steamer Banshee to
Nassau; my object was to get out of the rebel
service and take the oath of allegiance; from
Nassau I went to Havana, and there took
the oath of allegiance under Mr. Lincoln's
amnesty proclamation ; from Havana I went
to Sr. Thomas with a 0 iend, who was in a
dying condition ; thence to St. Johns, Porto
Rico ;II could not get a vessel at Porto Rico
for New Orleans, but obtained passage to
Halifax, Nova Scotia, where I expected more
readily to get a vessel.
I had been in Halifax about four days,
when happening to be at the wharf when the
mail steamer Alpha arrived from Bermuda,
I was accosted at the landing by the Hon. C.
C. Clay, of Alabama, whom I accompanied
to the Waverly Hotel. Colonel Duncan, of
Louisville, Kentucky, was in company with
us. Mr. Clay said he was out on a little
business for the Government and was on his
way to Canada; said that he had great confi
dence in me. A day or two after this con
versation, I came to St. John, New Bruns
wick, hoping to get t ) New Orleans by the
way of Portland ; and on the first day of
Juno, I again met Mr. Clay at the steamboat
landing. He said he wanted me to come as
soon as I could to the Waverly Hotel to see
him. About eight o'clock he sent a boy to
the Lawrence Hotel for me, and I went up
to the Waverly, t r Mr. Clay's private room..
"He said, 'Look here, captain, I want you
to go to Canada ; I shall very probably go to
Ogdensburg, and, as I am not at all well, I
need some company ; I would have gone to
Portland, but lam afraid some one would
recognize me.' He proposed to take a walk,
and, after our return, he requested me to
come up to the hotel early in the morning
(this morning). Ile sent for me at half-past
seven. I went directly up. Ile took me to
his private room and again urged me to go
with him.
"He took from a pocket in the back of his
inside coat a package containing four or five
letters or dispatches; I had one of these doc
uments in my hand ; it was addressed 'To
his Excellency, Horatio Seymour, Governor
of the State of New York;' another was ad
dressed to 'Hon. Fernando Wood, New York.'
On each of these envelopes was printed, 'De
partment of State, Richmond, Confederate
States of America,' and on the envelope was
written a name which I do not remember,
but have no doubt it was the name of the
present Secretary of State. Said Mr. Clay, I
was sent on a mission to deliver these letters
to Governor Seymour, but I wish they had
chosen somebody else. Said he, 'I shall stop
in Montreal a few days, and then shall pro
bably go to Ogdensburg;' he said ' I shall ,
see Governor Seymour," but did not say di
rectly that he would see him at Ogdensburg,
If my (Minutes) letters (which I was expect
ing from New Orleans) came, he would like
very much to meet me at Quebec or Mon
treel. I inferred front Mr. Clay's conversa
tion that he wanted me to convey his dis
patches to Gov. Seymour. - My intimacy
with Mr. Clay arose from the feet that his
son,Robert Clay, was first lieutenant in my
company, Thirteenth Regiment Louisiana
Volunteers, COl. Yorlem command, Gen. Pick
ett's division, Longstrcet's corps.
I parted with him sating that I would
meet him in Canada, if possible,

"United States Consul."
Where Rests the Responsibility ?
rol , /im Me N. .larcrbser.
"I thank Clod that the strife of aims
has ceased, and once more in the great
conventions of our party we call
through the whole roll of States, and
find men to answer to each."—Sri.
moor's Speech.
Governor Seymour thanks God that
all of the States aro once more repre
sented in a National Convention. But
to whom is this gratiliying result
due ? Is it the Democratic party which
in 186-1 declared in the Chicago Con
vention, over which this same Gover
nor Seymour presided, that the war
was "a failure," and should be stop
pod? The country was at that time
enshrouded in gloom, and the Rebel
prospects were brightening. Then it
was that the Democratic party solemn
ly declared that no further efforts
should be made to overcome them. In
so many words it affirmed that the
prosecution of the war had been of no
hvail, and that the Limo had come to
let the insurgents go in peace and es
tablish a separate Government of their
own.
The great and patriotic Republican
organization, however, which had con
ducted the war to that point, never
thought of hesitating or faltering. On
the contrary, it pushed forward with
renewed zeal and determination, and
ae a result Wade Hampton, William
Preston, Napoleon Forrest, C: C.
Langdon, and other Southern politi
cians are gathered to-day in tho city
of New York to nominate a candidate
for the whole United States, instead of
assembling at Richmond, Charleston,
or Montgomery to designate Jefferson
Davis, Robert E. Lee, or John C.
Breckinridge as President of a South-.
ern Confederacy. To the Republican
party, and that party alone, is duo the
fact that the Tammany Convention
to-day embraces delegates from below
•Mason and Dixon's lino.
Governor Seymour's speech, which
is surcharged with passion and anger
as no other address of his ever was,
d wells much on the vast debt, depreci
ated currency, and heavy taxes of the
country. But the party which ho to
day represents brought all of these ills
upon the country. When the Southern
States threatened to secede if Abraham
Lincoln was chosen President, the
Democratic party of the North encour
aged their threats and menaces. An
ox-Democratic President assured them
that he, along with others, would rush
to their rescue were any force attemp
ted. Other Demcratie leaders, at Me
riden, Connecticut, and elsewhere, de
clared that a Northern army woul4
have to march over their dead bodies
before reaching Dixie. Democratic
sheets, bore in the metropolis, promis
ed a hundred thousand defenders to
the south from Nov York alone in
the event of war. And one of them
had a Bohol flag prepared to unfurl to
the breeze opposite the way from
where we are now writing.
• 'Encouraged by such "manifesto
tions" tbe Southern leaders inaugura
ted secession. A Democratic Presi
dent, instead-of crushing the initiatory
movements, looked ciilmly on and de
clared that ho bad no power or author
ity to save the republic from going to
pieces. While Floyd, as Secretary of
War,-stealthily conveyed war material
from the Northern to the Southern ar
senals, the other members of the De
mocratic Cabinet as stealthily and se
cretly plotted against the nation's
life.
Then it was that our national bur
dens, over which Governor Seymour
fairly raves and foams, began. The
Democratic party had encouraged the
fiery Southerner to assail the Govern
ment, and the Republican party has
tened to its defense, calling upon the
country for men and money. As the
war continued, the Democratic party,
as such, vigorously opposed it, contin
uing to give moral as well as material
support to the insurgents, and discour
aging enlistments.
By thus keeping up a constant fire
from the rear on the Government, it
compelled still greater outlays of mon
and material, and swelled the public
debt. State and local taxes are now
being paid all over the country because
the Democratic party prevented volun•
Leering, encouraged "skedaddling,"
and hence necessitated the payment of
heavy bounties. We, here in New
York, are paying taxes today for
property destroyed by Governor Soy
mour's"friends," when in the Summer
of 1863 they rioted at will through our
streets, and under the belief that they
had his encouragement and sanction,
plundered publicand private dwellings.
and shot down unoffending men, wo
men and children. It is because of
such deeds, because the Democratic
party, as such, continued disloyal until
the end of • the conflict, that we are
saddled with national, State and local
burdens. had the Democratic party
been loyal to the country, there would
have been no rebellion,
no secession,
and no national debt. Had the Dem
ocratic party become loyal on the out
brellk of the rebellion, that rebellion
would have been overcome years ear
lier, and our national burdens would
,have been correspondingly less.
