HOHATIO SEYU0UK DEAD. Ex-fiovemor Seymour died at 10 o' clock on Friday night, the 12th Inst., at the residence of his sister Mrs. lioscoe Conkliug, in Utlca, Jf. Y., of congestion of the lungs and acute Inflammation of the kidneys. Deceased was born on the 31st of May, 1810, at l'ompey. Onon daga county, Kew York. Uo'.U of his grandfathers. Major Moses Seymour, of Llttlefk'ld, Conn., and Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Forman, of Xcw Jer sey, were distinguished soldiers of the Revolution. Ilenry Seymour, his fath er, removed from Connecticut to New- York early in the century and was Canal Commissioner of the State, lit ing at Utlca. Horatio's academic educa tion was begun in New York, was fin ished at Partridge's Military Academy, Mlddlttown, Connecticut, and the grad uating class made a journey to Wash Ingtou sis a battalion, young Seymour aim some ouicrs timing wun rrestuent John Qulncy Adams. Mr. Seymour studied law witli Green C. Bronson and Samuel Ueardsley, both of whom were afterward Chief Justlco3 of New lork. hen lie came to prac tice, however, ha proved too cood-heart- ed to be an UKure&slvtMiiditliizntlornev. and whiln settling his father's estate he accented lew retainers, Generally advis ing his clients to settle their dlllcrenccs without litigation. J Ills conciliatory temperament, luwcver, soon advanced Ula political lortuucs. lie was a Demo crat before he could vote and continued so from conviction all his life. The cardinal principle of his creed was rcsls tance to centralizing tendencies and the maintenance of local self-government, He soon became prominent in polities in Utlca and In 1833 (JSovomor Marcy appointed him Military Secretary. Ho held this oillco till Jarcy's term ex pired, In 1839, anil in 1841 was elected to the New York Assembly from the Utlca district, llefore his term expired ho was chosen Mayor of Utlca, but he came back to the Assembly In 1S14 anil In 1845 he was elected Speaker of the uouse, inc. uemocrats n-pre then di vided into tho Hunker and llarnburner factious, and after the hitter had de feated Cass by supporting Van Huron In 1845 Seymour, who was a Hunker, reconciled the two so well that he was nominated for (iovcinor In IBM), Wash ington Huut beat him by 202 majority, but Seymour was renominated ami de feated Hunt by 23,000 majority in 1852. As (jmrrnor he vc'oH the prohibi tory liquor bill, which v.a subsequently revived and enacted uiily to be pro nounced unconstitutional by tho Court of Appeals on the gri.iin.U taken in the veto. Seymour was icnouiiuated In 18.14, but was defeated. He continued to lead in New York politics till the civil war, and in 1802 was again nomin ated and elected Governor, in which ca pacity he firmly supixirtetl President Lincoln ami refined to lie drawn Into a J dot against him, although offered (lie 'residency as a price. One of his great est triumphs was his courageous speech to the draft rioters of July 12,lSU.'l,when all his f i lends feared he would come to bodily harm, whereas his kindly man ner calmed the mob. In JfcO-1 he was once more nominated for Governor, but defeated, In 1W3 the Democratic party united on him as Its Presidential candidate, al though, as a delegate to the convention at New York city, ho supported Salmon P. Chase, Tils nomination produced great enthusiasm, but not even he could defeat General Grant. Since I hat time he has lived a retired Ufa at Uccrficld, near Utlca, lnleriupti-d only by delega tions of Democrats bent on persuading him to carry the pait' standard once more. Strong pressure was Inought to bear upon him to become the candidate for Governor In 1877 when Lucius Ilob Inson was renominated and defeated by the Kelly bolt. Ills health, however, was not such as to warrant the sacrifice and he refused to take any active part In public affairs. Tho liodles of two men were found floatintr iu the Susriuchaiina Monday. The first, found near Cieasy, n small station on me renns)ivatn.i itauroaii, i lute the glut of a Sacred Concert In New proved to be the body of John D. liar-! York.

"It was a slashing mill and lasted two hours and fifty minutes; be ing ono of the gamest fights on record." This is tho announcement with leaded head llnei, that ono of the most lnllu entlal 'ew Yorl: dailies gives of one of tho most disgraceful fights that has taken place In the city. Seventy-five men witnessed the battle, and fifty of them paid tuctity-llvo dollars a ticket, and sat up all night In a miserable rook ery In the slums. Most of the so-called gentlemen had handsome homes of their own with every luxury that a reasonable person could wish, or were quartered at our nobbiest hotels. Yet they were willing to forgo the comfort and res pectability of their own homes, pay twenty-five dollars for a ticket, and run a sharp chaucc of a year In tho peniten tiary,, and all for the pleasure of seeing two brutes pound each other to a mum my. In the particular battle spoken of, one of tho brutes got his jaw and his noso broken, which disfigures lilm frightfully for life, and received as. a compensation for his hurts, two hun dred and fifty dollars; and his brutal backers or seconds tobbed him of two thirds of thai. I was in hopes after Sullivan's disgraceful fiasco, a year and a half ago, that men were done with pii'ze fighting in New York; instead of which there never was a .time iu our history, not uven when the thugs ruled the city forty years ago, when piizu fighting and its concomitant brutalities oppress us to much as now. Only two Sabbaths ago while tho chuicii bells were ringing, in a barn not throe hun dred yards fiom Dr. Talmago's Taber nacle a battlo was being fought which was only decided just before the con gregation sang tho Doxology. And right here I am reminded of a conversa tion which I heard in a street car. Two gentlemen worn conversing about the very laigo sum of money which a prom inent politician laid out in a late esca pade, and which brought him to the verge of bankruptcy, f o that he could not pay his tailor. "Yes," said one of thu gentlemen, "our vices are cash, but our virtues have to go on credit;" and so even our ponce sustained, at an ex pense of three or four millions of dollars annually, prey upon the haunts of ice, and levy blackmail upon criminals as the price of their countenance and pro tection. i lie Keener ot a low den. not a hundred yards from the Police Head quarters, and on I he sainu block with the Excise Commission, Is refused r license. Prize fislitcrs, ciacksnian.nick pockets and harlots have resorted to his den for years. The man has made a tortunc out of the cilniinal classes; lie has kept himself and his place constant ly before the public for years, thiouch the columns of the Police Gazette, or some of the sansatlonal Sunday papers, and whitewash from a leading Metro politan journal, whose circulation Is said to be over 200,000. He was a legiti mate subject for blackmail, and is a splendid illustration of that homely aii-ige oi iiui-ns-, that "The best laid plans of mice and men. ,-tft iranir airlee." Mr. Hairy Hill thought he had a tilend on the police on whom he could rely, in the time of troublo,so lie hud him trans fened to his district. Mr. Hill soon found out Chat thcio Is no friendship in business, and that his new friend was ten times worse than his old enemy 1 lie Precinct shelters a larger criminal class than any other in New York, and if they all paid at the same liberal rate for their police protection that Mr. Hill did !t is not at all astonishing that police captains grow ricii,and that the position of nn ordlnaiy ward detective, some times is worth a pi luce's ransom. Harry Hill stood bleeding like n Utile man. while Hie checks ranged from fifty to a hundred dollars. He had taken his pnnisnnieni in the r. it. and never squealed; In fact he rather liked It: but when they struck him for $500 at a clip, llesh and blood could stand it no longer; and now our police department Is turned upside down at tho shameful revelation of official dishonesty and villainy. It comes most opportunely just after Uie trial of General Shaler for bribery, who for the present appears to have escaped the terrible consequences of his offense by tho pigheaded obstinacy of a single juror. Some mouths ago I rerotded the caso of a wealthy German who ran away with the wife of his nephew. This nephew eventually sued his uncle, and tecoyered 43000 damages for tho aliuna- tlon of his wife's affections. Divorce procecdlnss were begun at once, and then the undo married his niece. Against this disgraceful act the whole family rose In iebcllion. He had six chlldien by his first wife, the oldest tliiity-thrce and the youngest nineteen and thej were all In the court this week agains, tliir amorous father. Some years ago he gave his daughter a lnott gago on a house which he possessed, witli the understanding that it was not to Do rocorded, but alter his row will his family lie disinherited all his c'.ill dren, and settled his property on his niece wife; then the daughter recordci! the mortgage, and the father tried to hae It set aside; but tho Court decided jmu me daughter's title was good, and now the late husband of the nioce sues his uncle for $100,000 in addition lo the $5000 which lui has in bank. Ily what peculiar hypothesis a cieatuie who would run away from a cood homo and an affectionate husband with her coo! uncle, can be worth $100,000 is more than I can fallium. I think he got a heavy price for such baggage when he recovered 45000. for her such wive would be dearnt a dollar a shipload and If 1 was on the jury. I wo'iMnoi give him a cent more, though I should llko to squeeze old Blohiu, the frisky old uncle. It looks now as though we might get at the bottom of thu great llioadway steal. We want to find out who got the million and a half of dollars that so mysteriously disappeared from the treasury of 'the llioadway railroad i-ven tho gentleman that signed the bonds did not know what became of them, nor had he the curiosity to In quire; he reiuembcred distinctly that he signed fifteen hundred of them, but It never occurred to him that some care ptigntio be taken or them, though the represented a million and a half of doi lars In soiiJ cash. It Is said as liie.li as f 00,000 was paid for a single vote (who would not uo a isew ioik Alderman) and the lowest was twenty-five thousand. Hliether such enormous sliiiis were dis bursed or not the disgraceful Manner in which the scheme was put through leaves it open to the cravest suspicion. and covers with Infamy every person cuiiiiecieu wun iiiq sieai. We are very much exercised just now on the subject of Sunday concerts. There is wide difference of opinion as to what constitutes a Sacred Concert on the different sides of the river. ifiooklyn takes high moral grounds New- York gives quite a liberal tnterpn tatlon.

Six years enlivened on Sabbath evenings with ago a site for a new observatoty was tamboiine nnd bones, they now insist bought by tho. Government, but no up on a stricter Interpretation of Sabbath proprlatlou for tho building has been melodies.

Two sacred concerts weiogot up a week ago, ono In aid of the Parnell i' iinn and the other for the uraiid Army of tho Itepubllc; but after all tho or- raiigemonts had been made, nnd many 1 tickets sold, the police swooped down on the places and tho concerts had to bo abandoned. There was a terrible commotion among tho Parntdlltcs, and sonio of tho orators saw the claws of the British I.lou through the fog; and our . brothers of the Grand Army smcllcd nn Inslduous Southern Influence with the pnuce. uie wuoie matter was eveniu- ally refencd by tho Mayor and Police Commissioners to the District Attorney, and he being a gentleman of liberal views who has no particular fear of Shcol or Gehenna, nnd who keeps his weather eve open to tho posnbllities of a future election, certifies that Sunday concerts are quite a proper thing, and we are looiciug tor ine announcement ot one of our most popular places of amusement that a sacred exhibition of roller skating will be given on Sunday night by the queen of the rink, Miss Chlney McCllntock, to be followed by clubs and dumb bells by Professor John son, horizontal bar by tho Mllliken Brothers, and the sacred concert will close with a waltz around and jig, and tho wondeifnl performance of Slgnor Zolesta the Man-Fly. J ho announcement of General Han cock's death took the city completely by surprise. It was not known by the general public that he was ill, and the news of his mortal dancer reached lis simultaneously with his death. His last puonc appearance in JXew lork was on that memorable day when ho escott- ed the remains of his Commander-in-Chief to their last resting place at lttv crsldo Park. In that magnificent pro cession there was no more Imposing fig ure. Ho filled the eye as the most per fect type of all that was great and noble in chivalry. Ills death, following so close upon that of GrantandMcClellan, narrows down the list, and In a few years at most tho death roll will be called for the last of our great com- manrtcrs. This week was placed on exhibition at the American Art Galleries on Aiadl pon Square, the most marvellous collec tion ot pictures and bric-a-brac ever ex- liloilcd in Acw ioik. Mrs. Marv J.

After all that has been said In praise of the sunny skies and salubrious climate of the National Capital, it cannot be denied that even t lie favorable geographi cal location of Washington does not always serve to render the climatic in fluences perfect. During the present winter the changes iu the weather have been sudden and marked. The heavy fall of snow of last week has almost entirely disappeared, and the danger of a freshet in the Potomac has been greatly Increased by tho rain. The river is rising rapidly, although the ice is still intact. Every precaution has been taken to avert possible danger. Steam tugs are engaged in breaking the Ice, while men upon horseback patrol the river banks above tho city. The watch will be kept up until all danger is past.

During a general discussion of the fcllver question in the Senate onMcnday Inst, Senator Sherman astonished Ids fellow benators uy making an earnist and rigorous speech in open session on the controversy between the Senate and the Executive as to their lespectlve powers regarding persons suspended by office. This Is tha fiist public speech upon tho subject, which had heretofore been discussed only iucxecuiiiescKloi . Mr. Sherman declared thai all Informa tion upon the flies of any Department belonged to the Senate; that while I e did - not claim that the Senate com I exercise any power over the President's discretion, that the President must not prevent the Senate from bavins the same Information that he had when he made, the nomination, It is reported that Senator Kdmur.ds has of late' changed his mind on the subject-of Jecret sessions, and that he now favors the consideration of the President's nominations In open session. and that he will make a speech in sup port of Mr. Piatt's open session resolu tion.
