, Seymour is .reporm to say thai the
reason which prevent d his accepting the

After the nomination iwas-made - Chase's

themselves against Grant and,Colfax, and
not being able to 'swallow Blair's revolu
tionary schemes, find themselves Without
1 a- representative iq the pending contest.
They say they would have been satisfied
With Chase and Hancock, or JOhnson and
some one else, but at present - they are
afloat. Quite. a number of this class have
given in their adherence to Grant, among
them it is rumored several members of the
