Tze Republican Conferees for the twenty
third CongressionaLdistrict before theirlast
adjournment passed this resolution:
'..Resolved, That
~ the Conference adjourn
to meet at this place on the 10th instant, and
that our candidates be I requested to consult
together, with the view of aiding us in
making a nomination." -
THE Cincinnati Enquirer of, the sth,
having probably had a private warning
the tenor of Szvuotra's letter of accep
tance, "repudiates any responsibility for
the indiscreet speeches of HAMPTON, COBB,
TOCOEBS and:others, delivered since the New
York Convention." Why couldn't Mr. Sim
-moult have posted up our neighbor of the
Pittsburgh Poi:, in the same way, restrain
ing it from its indiscretion in declaring, a
few days since, that it fully endorsed WAD!,
limarroa's utterance's "One more um.

THE State authorities of Louisiana have
at last made a formardemand upon the Fed
eral Governtient for military aid to pre
* serve the peace and enforce the laws in that .
State. The Governor officially time s that
the rebel organization 'has become too gen
oral, too powerful and too well armed and
\ officered to be resisted by the fewer white
loyalists and theiverawed colored popula
' tion. He proceeds b') recapitulate some of
the more prominent facts, which show the
rule of tOsWiess spirit of rebellion in many I
of the rural parishes, and that nothiag but
• the presence of Federal troops restrains the ,
conspirators from taking forcible.possession
of New Orleans -itself. - The Governor ac:
cordingly,..after:stathe inability of the
constituted amhorities to enforce the kiwi
thus resbited, Makes the constitutional de
mand for Federal aid. .This ,demand, it is
said, the President, will • not • accede; to ,is
,
this form, insisting; that _.the application
must be make to the local ceinmander, Gen.
Bucnanarr. The country will narrowly
observe the action of the Federal Executive
in this case, as in others" that may , be pre
sented from the Bouth.this 'year, 'and the
President may rely upon it that he will be
held to the most strict and faithful account,
His fatiure to discharge promptly the duties
of a faithful Executive, in this and other
cases that are likely to follow, will very
justly be regarded as tantamount to a direct
and,powerful encouragement for rebellion.
THE spit - ft - of the Demoemtier rebels who
are clamoring for a removal of the disfran
chising restrictions in Tennessee is fairly il
lustrated by the fact that the very night after
Mr: JORDAN, a Republican member of the I
Legislature, had introduced a bill to repeal I
these restrictions, a bandAf one bnndred of
the Ku-Klux rode armed through the city of
Nashvillc. Of course, that put an end to
all talk! of granting the rebel request. It
was concluded that there would be time
enough to-enfranchise the rebels after they
had learned to respect the already existing
laws., In' the same connection, it should
be reMembered that the ex-rebel Generals,
who have really seen service, declare that
the tiOubles which threaten the peace of the
State are;all made by the "home Generals,"
rebels who never saw service at all. And
one of them, General linfatuv, declared, in
reference to their disfranchisement, thus :
"I will trust to you that enfranchisement will
come in due time. Nor. dlr. in all frankness, am I
one to hold you unforgiveable for my disfranehise
meat. When we first returned home from war, we
— would certainly (If permitted to vote) have been able
under our then franchise laws to have taken perfect

power you
or those so have
re
cently at war with your Illovernment. lean only ex
press my earliest hope that you who have withheld
will yourselves restore us the ballot. If this be done
it willyerify the assertion, that its denial was but a
temporary expedient for protection to the State."
SEYMOUR'S ELECTIONEERING
DODGE.
After four weeks of delay, the Democratic
nominee for the Presidency at last opens
hiri mouth with a formal acceptance, of the
nomination, in a letter which we 'printed
yesterday. It is stated, and generally be
lieved to be true, that this period of delay,
unprecedented in the political history of
any party, has been employed, first, in an
effort by Mr. SET/dons and his particular
friends to obtain the general consent of the
Democratic leaders to his withdrawal from
the ticket, with the substitution in his place
theon. of Mr. CHASE or Mr. HENDRICKS,
anal, leciind, that effort failing. in consulta
tion with those leaders throughout the
Northern States, as to the most proper
phraseology of the document which has now
appeared. It was felt by those leaders that
the indecent haste with which BLAIR, nom
, inated,for the second place, had anticipated
'his nominal superior, committing, the party
to an extremely violent and revolutionary,
-though strictly just, interpretation of its plat
form, had very seriously alarmed the peo
ple' and perhaps had fatally compromised
Democratic prospects in the canvass. The
"whelming 'dile" of public indignation
which BLArn'd atterances have awakened in
every loyal ,breast throughout the land,
breaking down the barriers of mere party,
and leading honest Democratic voters by
thousands to spurn his invitation to iniugu
rate another civil war, has had the effect to
convince. Mr. SEYMOUR and his friends that,
in adopting their incendiary programme,
I theyhad fatallymistaken the popular temper,
I
and could only hope to avert a most disas
trous defeat by an immediate change of
fiOnt. Yet; desirable as a more prudent
policy, seemed, they have not been uncon
scions of the difficulty in the way of mak
ing that change. They could not entirely
disown BLAIR and Revolution, for he was
expressly nominated upon that platform
pre-arinmuiced by himself. The frank but
"indiscreet" testimony of WADE HAMPTON
and other leading Southern • rebels—who
controlled important committees in the Con
vention, and who have put it on record that,
so far as the great sectional qgestion is in
volved,.the candidates And platform framed
by, themselves mean the nullification of the
laws and armed resistance to their enforce
i meat by Federal authority, and nothing else
but that—have still more increased the ern
, barrasament of the Democratic politicians.
They have not-dared to , disregard the crack
of the rebel whip, either by rejecting BLAzn
as the rebel candidate, by excluding his
proclamation of revolutionary defiance from
their platform of, principles, or, even now,
when the peril to their' partizan interests
has become so apparent, by dismounting
this "man on horseback" who threatens to
lead the Democratic squadrons plunging
madly into another civil war. Nor, on the
other hand, have they ,dared to offend the
loyal Democratic masses still more fatally
by an explicit endorsement of Mr. BLArm's
extremely dangerous °plaid:is.
We have the result of the month's anxious
counsellings in the elaborate stump.speech
with *hi& HORATIO Szvmorrn "accepts"
his nomination. A long-drawn, verbose in
dictment of Loyalty for its efforts to recon
struct the 'constitutional fabricwhich a Dem
ocratic-rebel treason had shattered, is art
fully designed to cover the phrases,
marked and decisive, in which Mr. Sax- I
moon attempts to repudiate the BLAIR inter
pretation. Under the guise of an attack
upon "Ra . dical violence," his letter is a
specious protest against all violence what
ever: Kr. Szvmotra and his friends, with
all other intelligent citizens, well know
that it is not the Republicans who have
used "violence" hitherto, or menace it here
after. They know that the:.whole Southern
land is to-day filled with the outcries of
Union men outraged,, robbed and assassin
ated by DeMORIEUC S. S. K. `rebels; that
from the Ohio to the Gulf the fields;which are
yet red with the blood of 'hundreds of thous
ands of our kindred slain by. rebel hands
while upholding the banner 'of the. Union;
again ring with the . old "rebel yell" of
HAmrrom, YAM% PERRY,' Toop.imii
BELL, and.other Itutdredi of Democratic
leaders who defiantly prOolaim' _the second
appeal to arms. They knoW.Ahat, through
out th e Republic, wherever the.voice of our
great leader is heard, the consenting voice
of a loyal people demands peace and obedi 7.

violence which have been heard have fallen.

have been takin up and formally eeiterated
in that Detriiieilitia platforai which, declares
loyal legislation tote void, which pledges,,
its candidates to nullify . those laws by arms,
and which has naturally inspired its rebel
supporters with fresh and sanguine hopes
for the "lost cause" which SETHOIin and
BLAIR stand pledged to restore.
When Mr. Sgirmoun talks of violence;
therefore, it is the programme of Brant
'awl the Convention, as justly interpreted in.
-the light of the facts and in the plainest
meaning of the language, which he is at
tempting to repudiate. We must check this
siolenee, he says. Elect our, President and a
majority of the Representatives, he adds,
and it would not give us power to make
violent' and sudden changes, but .only to
check extreme measures. We all deplore
a'spirit of violence and, like right-thinking
men, abhor a condition of civil war, whines
HORATIO SEYMOUR. -.lt won't do, Rini Your
party cannot disown its platform; it cannot,
fair it does not, deny and repudiate the can
didates,nominated upon it and expressly for
it; it cannot deny the policy which its coin

gave carte•blancho to that red-handed rebel
to shape, Ikrecisely us it now stands before
the world, sa the for Mal expresaion of D eine

all your fine-spun platitudes about "Radical
violence" must come straight home to the
party of Ilumit and RevolPtion, like 11l birds,
to roost in the congenial Ctipperhead ehatbsi
which hatched them. And your artful pro
tests against the Southern interpretation of
your- principles can avail you naught, be
cause that rebel interpretation is the only
teue.one. No sir! it is not in this way, not
by these ,ffilse recriminations against 'the
loyal living and the loyal dead, not by these
specious and hackneyed generalities of
groundless accusation against the loyal peo:
ple who are proposing to govern and con
trol that Union which their loyalty, not
yours, nor of your, "friends," has preserved,
not by your long-drawn vauntings of a ,
Democratic yearning for peace, and order,
and submission to law, and obedience
to the Constitution, and of a .holy
horror of strife and bloodshed a and
civil war, not by your empty as
surance .cif pacific intentions, to which
every mail from the rebel States brings
Democratic contradictions, and every South
ernwind bears the defying lie—it is not in
any such way that W. SEYMoUR and the
other Democratic supporters of Basin and
another rebellion can hope to blot out the
record of Their disloyalty, which, written
red in ineffaceable letters of blood, the best
blood of the Rerittblic, during four years of
'carnag,e, is to_be .re-traced again ' after N
ovember, under theDetruieratic programme.
No ! gentlemen, your platform and your
candidates have been already officially and
audaciously proclaimed to be what they are
—Rebellion and Civil War—and you will
find that the American people have too
much intelligence to be amused or hood
winked' by a stump-speech from the one
candidate, and that their hearts are too
loyal and.brave to be cowed by the treason
able threats of the other. The issue has
been written too plainly. Thank God that
,it will not need to be washed out in fresh,
blood, since the suffrages of loyalty will yet
suffice for the protection.of the ; Union, the
preservation or Peace, and the enforcement
of the Laws!
TIIE CATILE PLACA
Yesterday the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company forwarded from the East Liberty
stock yards four cars freighted with dis
eased cattle, parts of the three lots of which
we_have heretofore spoken. This was done
by consent of the Meat Inspector of this
city, with the understanding that they
should be treated as impregnated with pes
tilence, and that all practicable precautions
should be, taken against their coming in
contact with healthy herds. It was, also,
part of the 'understanding that the cars in
which they-were transported should not be
used for some time to cote in the carrying
of cattle; but should be employed in mov
ing oil. The chief reason: urged for this
arrangement was the fact that cattle dying
from disease bring at this point only eight
dollars a head, while at Communipaw they
command thirty.
The residue of the three infected droves .
remaining here are being killed as fast as I
the boiling establishment can ,dispose of
their carcasses, and when all of 'them shall
be disposed of the pens they have occupied
will be cleansed as thoroughly as they
can be.
So far no signs of the malady have ap
peared in any other lots of cattle in-the
Yards, and the Superintendent avows his
determination to take every possible pains
to exterminate all traces of the disease and
to prevent fresh importations of the con
tagion. '-
Admitting that the owners of these plague
stricken cattle, the officers of the Railroad
Company, and the Meat Inspectoi• have
acted in good faith, we cannot avoid saying
that we are not satisfied with what they
have done, or what they propose to do.
None of these inftcted cattle ought to have
been forwarded eastward. All of them
_ought to have been promptly killed and
their remains effectually disposed of. here.
The difference between eight and thirty
dollars for each carcass constitutes no valid
reason why cattle congregated at Commu
nipaw, or at the Yards between this point
'and that, where it is necessary» to stop and
feed or water animals in transitu, should be
exposed to the distemper.
Nor do we seath4any precautions what
ever are taken to prevent the arrival here
of other lots of cattle from localities at the
West where the disorder it prevailing in a
malignant form, The three lots which cre
ated trouble heie were not bought and tor
waked ignorantli, if •
•. - we underitand the
matter aright.. They are reputed to' have
been bought in f3angamon and cthampsdane
connileih where the contagion pre
io alarming extent; perhaps;' were eb
tiiiiied:at low figure" on that account, and
might have - 3riebbidn handiome speculation
'had %bey gotta through tied lide4 I r a taco
the infeCl49u disclosed.
there ,to , prevent other lots from
these same districts from arriving here ?
Doubtless the unpropitious results attend
ing the forwarding of therie droves will have
a tendency to check traffic in animals rea
sonably suspected of having been exposed
to the plague; but something more than
this is needed. The evidence Is patent that
cattle presumably Infected have been for
warded eastward from this Point In the hope
of making a gain of twenty•two dollars a
head. Why may not such cattle be sent
here from the West tipler n Illce induce
ment?

FAMILIAR QUOTATIONS. By John Bart
lett. Fifth Edition. • Boston: Little,
Brown, Co. ,
This is not, in the ordinary sense, a dic
tionary of literary quotations, but an at
tempi to trace to their source passages and
phrases' which are so striking or senten
tious that they have passed into common
use. All persons of eitensive reading
know that this is an exceedingly difficult
and delicate tmdertaking. - Ideas are the
mental currency of the World, get into cir
culation and keep there, or drop out, it is
most frequently hard to determine how.
Comparatively few thinkers have been
found much in adyance, of their respective
generations. Indeed, the mental progress
of the race seems to be the result of gen
eral movements, in which thousands or
millions share, more or , less consciously,
rather than in the efforts of particular indi
viduals. Books, for illustration, frequent
ly appear in Europe, and excite sharp dis
cussion; but when a stiidioui -American
takes them in hand he finds nothing new;
only a record, more or less perfect, of his
own thoughts. The ideas are net so much
in particular persons, as in the special age.
When in the development of things the
time has arrived for an idea or a train of
ideas to take root, it is found that, like the
rays of the rising sun, the light falls not
upon one, but upon many:
Whenever an attempt is made to find the
first embodiment of a thought, or a specially
terse and felicitous expression thereof, it is
hard for the explorer to be sure he is right.
The explorer, as he pursues his search, finds
the, same- precise' idea in a number of con
temporaneous authors, who were or were
not familiar with each other's writings.
Perhaps the Idea belonged to neither of
than, in the strict sense, but was part of the
common currency. The explorer goes yet
further back, through different languages
and generations, finding here and there the
same thought in use, till finally the pursuit
is lost in the depths of antiquity. The same
idea has fed unnumbered generations of the
race ; perhaps, descended traditionally from
beyond the dawn of letters.
However, Mr. Bartlett has essayed a
good work and Performed it well. His
bdok will be found not only pleasant but
serviceable for such as feel an interest in
tracing pertinent phrases in ordinary use,
to some apparent or acknowledged fountain.

IS YOUR DISEASE RHEUMATISM?
Many persons, supposing they are suffering from
this disease, have applied Linaments, Plasters and
other Rheumatic Remedies without obtaining any
relief, when in fact the cause of pain Is a derange
