troubles. We now get at the real issues be
tween the parties. The Republicans by their
nominations and resolutions, are pledged to
keep up the negro and military policy, with
all its costs and taxations. 'These will he
greater hereafter. The govermilent of the
south to go into the hands of the uegroes.
We have said they are unfit to be voters at
the North The republicans say they shall
be !zovernors at the South. We are clearly
opposed to this policy. We have seen how'
much it has cost the taxpayer, the bondholder
ant , the laborer in the past three years: It
wilt be as hurtful in the future.
We have also seed how our policy of using
the money to pay our debts would have help
ed the taxpayer, the bondholder and the-la
.borer in the past. It will do as much in the
future. The whole question is brought down
to this clear point—shall we, use our mosey
to pay our debts, relieve the taxpayer, make
our money good in the hand of the laborer
or pem,ioner and help the bondholder? or
shall we te-e it to keep up military despotism;
feed idle negroes, break down the judiciary,
shackle the Executive and destroy all con
stitutional rights?
THE I'ItErIIIESCI
I have said nothing iu behalf of or against
the NieWS of any one who is spoken of as a
candidate for the Presidency on the Demo
crat , ide. I have said only what each one
agrees to and is in favor ut. No man has
been named who is not in favor of •reduciug
e-.pen-es and-thus making our paper as good
nr gold No man has been named who i 3 not
in favor of cutting down military expenses.
No man has been named who is not in favor
°fusing the money drawn front the tax-pay
ers to pay the public debt. No man has
been named who is not in favor of a general
amnesty to the people of the South. No man
has been named who is not an upholder of
Cun-titutional rights: No man has been
named by the Democratic party whose elec
tion would not help the tax-paver; the pen
sioner, the laborer and the bondholder. On
the other hand, the candidates of the Repub
lican party are pledged to their - past policy,
which has sunk the value of our - currency
-more than eight per tent. in the 'past two
years. The discount upon our paper money
was f.'o per cent. in April, 186 G; it is now
about :29 per cent. It ,will continue to go
down under the same policy. As it sinks it
will increase taxes ; ttwillcurse all labor
and business ; it Will endanger still more the
public credit, for the greater the premium on
gold the harder it becomes to pay specie to
The bondholder and his claims become more
normasza
What elahe have the Republicans upon
oar soldiers? They take away from him
one quarter of hi, pension by - paying him in
ildbe money, which is worth less than seven
ty-five cents on the dollar. A wise and hon
est administration would have made it worth
its race in gold, What right have they to
pall upon the mechanic and laborer? They
have lengthened out the hours of their toil
to feed swarms of aloe holders and negr, oes
at the South. How can they look the tax
payers in the thee when they have wrung
from them so many millions upon the pretext
that the debt compelled them to do so,
while they wereusing the money thus col
lected to support standing armies and to
trample upon the rights and liberties of the
American people? Can they with decency
appeal to the bondholder after tainting the
national credit and sinking it to the level of
the Turks, and endangering their securities
by throwing upon them the whole odium of
taxation? Then let the East and the
the -North and the South, the soldier, the
toiler, in ships or in fields, the taxpayer and
the bondholder, by one united effort drive
from power the common enemies of liberty,
honqty, honor, rights and Constitutional
laws.

one of the wildest and most heartfelt enthu

buried, and many of the most active Radicals
were among the foremost in paying their re
gards to the great statesman whom destiny
has chosen to lead the Democratic hosts on
to victory. A curious feature of the day was
the ringing of all the church bells, showing
'more clearly than any human tongue could'
express, the reverence felt for him at home,
and the high repute in which he is helti as a
Christian man and sincere patriot. ,Gov.
Seymour was much affected by these spon

only make a brief speech of thanks, before
retiring to the privacy of his own household.
AB soon as the decision of the Suprethe
Court, pronouncing the Registry law uncon

otru NoiaiNESS
The ticket nominated for the support of
the Democrats of the United States is one of
which not only the party but the country - may
well be proud.. It has been long since there
was so strong a combination of intellectual
vigor, force of character, and statesman like
experience presented to the suffrages of the
Alliefiean people. The name of Horatio Sey
mour is a tower of strength, and challenges
not only the warm admiration of his politi
cal friends, but the respect, if not esteem, of
his opponents. If there is a man who is'emi
neatly qualified for the Presidential office,
who would fill it with dignity, with 'consum
mate tact, who would honor the place, it is
Horatio Seymour. There is no qualification
in which he is deficient. Ile is a ripe scholar,
a polished writer, a splendid orator, a pro
fund thinker, who has made the science of
goiterninent his life-long study ; and in addi
tion, he hus every personal grace and accom
plishment Unit are properly associated it'ith
so exalted an office— Ile has a National rep
utation as extensive as that of any man in the
Unit.n. More than all, lie is devotedly at
tached to the Constitution as it was made by
the fathers, and would administer it strictly
upon the principles ofJeffersoffand Madison.
Not the least flaw or defect can be found
with his general political record. I No man
has fought more gallantly the battles of the
Democracy and the Union. Ile has ever
wielded an intellectual weapon in their behalf,
as keen as a Damascus blade.
The selection of Mr. Seymour is peculiarly
fortunate at this time, for the practice has•lat
terly been to select mediocrity and inexperi
ence for Presidential honors, rather than con
summate talent and ripe experience. The
election of Mr. Seymour would redeem us
from the reproach that has been east upon
us, that it is impossible to place 'a first-class
statesman in the Presidential office. It is
true there has been a divergence of views to
some extent in the sentiments of Mr. Sey
mour and Mr. Pendl4ton, upon the green
back question, but the adoption of a platform
which 19 a substantial affirmation of Mr.
JPendleton's creed, and the acceptance by
Mr. Seymour of a nomination upon it will
remove all difficulty, and be generally accept
able to the entire Democracy of the country.
Mr. Seymour being a man of high personal
honor, may be safely trusted to carry out
and give administrative enforcement to all
the doctrines of the platform upon which he
is
_running, and in behalf of which the suf
frages of the - people are solicited. On the
negro suffrage issue, and on all the points in
volved in the so-called Congressional recon
at-ruction( Mr. Seymour occupies the most
advanced Democratic ground, as is well
known to every one who has read his mummy
magnificent addresses denunciatory of the
whole Radical Congressional scheme.
General Frank P. Blair, the nominee for
Vice-President, is another selection which
possesses eminent fitness at this time. Gen.
Blair (Nimes of good Democratic stock, and
his name is redolent with a Jacksonian and
Bentonian flavor that is exceedingly pleasant
to the Old-line Democracy. His father was
the confidential friend of Dresident Jackson,
and conducted the Washington Globe, the
official organ, during the twelve years'- ad
ministration of Jackson and Van Buren.
His son Frank has inherited 'the force of
character and the intellectual vigor of his
father, which was always remarkable, and
which has been evinced during his long
and cvcntfsLlife. 'General Blair is the soul
df honor, as fine a representative of true and
genuine manhood as the etiuntly affords.
There was no better. no more gallant soldier
in the late war than General Blair, none wbb
received higher encoinums for distinguished
and meritorious services. ftc was for a long
period the commanding officer of the fighting
Seventeenth Corps in Shertnan's army, which
performed prodigies of valor on all tlin bat
tle-fields from the Ohio to the sea. The
Radical press, which now affect to disparage
this gallant officer, were then warm and en-
thtfsiastie in his 14raise. Their abuse of to
day is answered by their compliments.to him

the Republie.M party, but, like thousands of

One conies from the extreme East, and the
other from the extreme West. It nuitesbot
civil and military talent and experience. It

fied Republieans, together with the; soldiers
and cai lots, r ecrimnin inDeneraißlair'a selec
tion' n vompliment to diem, and a testimonial
of the liberality of the Democratic organiza

triumphant majorities known in the history
of modern Presidential enalirigns. Every

next President and Vice-President of the
United States. *
Tim New York Sun, an independent jour
nal with strong Republican proclivities,
notices particularly the "high order" of men
who composed the great National Conven
-tion of the Democracy.• "We , observe," it
says, "a Ilrge proportion of men of solid
character, old men olgrave and reverend as
pect, men who have not mark politics a trade,
but who have on this occasion come from,the
retreats of private life under the impulse of
public duty. There is little, indeed almost
none, of the noisy and hurrah boys element.
so common in such Conventions. During the
preliminary organization of Saturday there
was the most respectful attention on all
aides ; the various State delegations (with a
single' exception) were prompt and unani
mous-in their Totes, and seemed to enter into
a pleasant rivarry for the horuir of being fore.*
most in pushing along the work in hand. On
the whole, we have never seen a more quiet
body in any National ConVentiorn" Another
journal says: "Those who Vended the
Chicago Republican Convention and were
present at Tammany Hall could not help,
noticing the difference in the two in point
-of personnel especially as to the Southern,
delegates. Instead of the carpet-baggers
and political bummers who were at Chicago,
the South was represented by her best men.
There is - not among them all a man who 'is
not at heart a Union man to-day, and their
Ulaicinism is not as with the carpet-baggers
at Chicago, bordlof a desire to obtain office
or Co make a livelihood: No niore respectia
ble looking body of men have ever assembled
in a political Convention."
THE Radical organs declare that the ticket
of Seymour and Blair is a weak one? The
fact is, that within one bout . atter it was made,
it led to more ratification meetings in its favor
than the Grant and Colfax ticket has elicited
in 'the seven weeks it has been before the
public ! The Radical wire workers are trem
bling in their shoes at the 'strength of the
ticket, while they are declaring It to be
weak ! They can't impose upon any body,

Mr - DcAn Sin : You know better than any

guided My conduct.iiince the suggestion of
my name for the: Presidential nomination.
You know that while I covet the good opin
ion of my countrymen, and would feel an
honest pride in so distinguished a mark of
their confidence, I do not desire it at the ex
pense of one single electoral vote, or of the
least disturbance of the. harmony of our
party. I- consider the success of the Demo
cratic party, in the next election of far greater
importance than the gratification of any
personal ambition, however pure and lolly it
might
,be. It; therefore, at any time a name
shall be suggested which, in the opinion of
yourself and those friends who have shared
our confidences, shall be stronger before the
country, or which can more thoroughly unite
our own party, I beg that ton will instantly
withdraw my name, and pledge to the Con

The Convention proceeded to 'take the 22d
ballot, and when Ohio was called, Gen. Mc-

Mr. Chairman : I arise at the unanimous
request and the demand• of the delegation
from Ohio, and with the consent and ap
proval of every public man in the State, in
cluding the Hou. George H. Pendleton, to
again place in nomination, against his incli
nation, but no longer against his honor; the
name of Horatio - Seymour of New-York.
[Rousing cheers and long- continued ap
'plause.] Let us -vote, Mr. Chairman and
gentlemen of the Convention, for a man
whom the Presidency has sought, but who
has not sought the Presidency. [Applause.]
I believe in my heart that it is the solution
of the problem which has been engaging the
minds of the Democrats and conservative
men of this nation for the last six mouths.
[" Good, good."]. I believe it Will have a so
lution which trill drive from power um van
dals who now possess the Capitol of the nation.
[Applause.] I behevelt will receive the unan
imous assent and approval of the great belt of
States front the Atiantic—New-York, New-
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, IndianaMiehi
gan, Illinois, Missouri, and away West, fur
quantity—to the Pacific Ocean. I say that
he has not sought the Presidency; and 1
ask—not dem:mit—l ask that this Convention
shall demand of hint that, sinking his Own
inelioation and the well-lm own desires o f his
heart, he "shall yield to what we believe to be
the almost unanimous wish and desire of the
delegates to this Convention. [Great. up
planse and three cheers.] In my earnestness
and enthusiasm s I had almost forgotten to
cast tile 21 votes of Ohio for Horatio Seymour.
[Tremendous exeltr2inent, and nine cheers
for Iltaatio.Seymour.] -
Gov. Seymour here mil anced to the front
of the stage, and, as soon as the enthusiasm
Would-permit of his being heard, addressed
the nssemblage
Genfienien f lhe, CCMCCItiIOIL LelleCrz;l: The
motion just made by the gentleman from Ohio
excites in thy Mind the most mingled emo
tions": [Applause.] I have no terms in which
to express my gratitude [cheers] for the tong
naniinity of his State and for the generosity
of this Convention. [Cheers.] I have to
terms in which to tell of my regret that thy
name has been brought before this Ctin
.Vention. God knows that my life and all that
I value_most in life I would give for the good
of my country, which I believe to be identi
cal with My own. [Applause, and cries of
"Take the - nomination, then,"] Ido not
stand here as it man proud of his opinions or
obstinate in his purposes ; but upon a question
of honor I must stand upon my own convict
ions against the world. [Applause, and a
yoke, " God bless you, Horatio Seymour."l
Gentlemen, when I said here at an early day
that honor thrbade 'my accepting a .nomina
lion by this Convention I meant it. When,
in the course of my intercourse with those
of my own delegation and my friends,. I said
to them that I could not be a candidate, I
meant it. And noW permit me here to say
that I know, after all that has taken place.
I could not receive the nomination without
placing, not only myself, but the great Demo
cratic party in a false position. [Great ap
plause.] But, gentlemen of the Convention,
more than that, we have had to-day an ex
hibition from the distinguished citizen of Ohio
that has touched my heart, as it has yours.
[Ch'eers.] I thank God, and I congratulate
this country, that there is in the great State
of Ohio, whose magnificent position gives it
so great a control over the action of our
country, a youug inaumr, fast in the esti
mation of his countrymen, and whose future
is all glorious, who has told the world that
he could tread beneath his feet every other
consideration titan that of duty ; -and when
he expressed to his delegation, and expressed
in more direct fords, that he was willing that
I should be nominated, who stood in such a
position of antagonism-to his own nomina
tion, I should feel a dishonored man if I could
not tread the same honorable path which
he has marked out. [Great applause.] Gen
tlemen, I thank you, and may God bless you
for your kindness to me; but your candidate
I cannot he. [Three cheers for Horatio Sey
mour.]
Mr. Yallaudighamsaid : "In times of great
public exigency, and especially in times of
great public calamity, every personal con
sideration must be yielded to the pUblic good.
[Applause.] The safety of the people k the
supreme law, and the safety of the American
Republic demands the nomination of Horatio
Seymour of New York. [Cheers.] Ohio
will not accept his declination, and her 21
votes shall stand recorded in his name."
[Cries of "good, good," and cheers.] Ile
called on the delegates from other States to
follow the course of Ohio, and make Gov.
Seymour the nominee, believing it will be
the presage "of certain vie tory. Mr. Kiernan,
of N. Y„ desired to say, on behalf of his dele:
gation, that they had neither part nor lot In
the movement to bring Gov.. Seymour
forward. He rejoiced, however, that it had
been made, and believed that Seymour's
name would settle the problem which '•the
Convention had been endeavoring to solve
for nearly a week. As each State after Ohio,
was called, its vote • was cast for Gov. Sey
mour, and soon, as if by one impulse, State
after State Winged its vote to the illustrious
statesman of - New York, until the whole 317
ballots were given in his favoF. The scene
during these events was one of the most ex
citing ever witnessed. New York was the
last to and in speaking - for her
Son, Mr. Tilden said :
It is fit'lliat on this occasion :New York
should wait for the voice of all her sister
States. Last evening I should not have be.
lieved—did not believe—the event which has
just happened to be possible. Not because
I had not seen. here that the underlying
chdice of almost all of this Convention was
that we shoUld do what we have now done.
There was but one obstacle, and that was In
the repugnance which I take upon myself
the responsibility of declaring to have been
earnest, sincere, deep felt, on the part of
Horatio Seymour Waccepi this nomination.
I did not believe that any circumstance
would make it 'passible, ,any
that Ohio,
with whom we have been unfortunately di
viding our votes; herself demanded it, and
tolhat I thought New Yiork, ought to yield,
We were _without any connection or any
combination that bound our faith or our
honor, 'and I was anxious "that when we
should leave this Convention that Were
should be underlying our actions no heart
burning, no jealousy, no bitterness of disap
pointment, and I believe that in this result
we have lifted this Convention far above
every such consideration, and I believe fur
ther, after leivin!, , surveyed the ground for a
long time, and meditated most carefully what
we ought to do, influenced, I am sure, by no
personal partiality, by no other thing than
the deliberate conviction of niy judgment,
I believe . that we have made the nomination
most calculated to give us success in the
election which approaches. .And, Sir, hay
ing made these observations in behalf of the
New York delegation, I now' ask that our
vote be changed, and be recorded for Horatio
Seymour.
During these proceedings, Gov. Seymour,
who had occupied a seat on the platform,rc
tired to one of the committee morns, where
Mr. Tilden soon joined him. The latter
found him entirely alone and with the tears
strcamineg from his eyes, "My God, Tilden,
what sh ill I do? This is terrible !" he ex
claimed. Tilden 'replied, "Sir, the Presiden
cy has sought you, not you the Presidency,
and piu must take it." When the vote was
announced, every person In the audience
rose, and ?mild the waving of hats, handker
chief-, tltn., canes, and parasols, three tre
-mendous cheers were given, which fairly
made the huildifg reek. The Chairman
said :
The Hon. Ho - ratio Seymour haying re
ceived the unanimous vote of this Conven
than, 1, therefore, declare him the' standard
bearer of the Democratic party in the en
suing clectiun.
The following is the way the vote stood
previous - to the move of the Ohio delegation :
Hendricks, 140 ; Hancock, 90 1-2 ; John
son, 4 ; Doolittle, 4;, English, 1 ; Seymour
21.
A recess of one hour was taken, when the
,Convention proceeded to nominate a candi
date fur the Vice Presidency. The names of
IGen. P. P. Blair, of Mo., Gen. John A. Mc-
Clernand, of 111, Gen. Thomas Ewing, of
Ohio, and A. C. Dodge, of lowa, were pre
sented, but it soon became clear' that Gen.
Blair was the favorite, and a 1 the rest were
withdrawn, when he was nominated by ac
clamation. Hearty cheers, 'greeted this re
sult. Mr. Vallandigham ofT4ed the follow
ing resulution,,which was adopted : •
Rixolrld, That this Convention sympathizes
cordially with the workingmen of the United
States, in their efforts to protect the rights
and promote the interests of labor and of the
laboring classes of the country'.
Mr. Kiernan, of N. Y., offered the lollow
ing, which passed by acclamation :
Besot red, That the thanks of this Conven
tion are tendered to Cuief-Ju4tice Salmon P.
Chase, for the ju S tiee,dignity; and impartiality
with which he presided over the Court of
Impeachment on the trial of President An
drew Johnson.
Some business not of general interest was
transacted end the Convention adjourned
ACCEPTANCE OF TUE CANDIDATES.
The Committee appointed by the Denio
cmtic National Convention to fOrMally noti
fy Messrs. Seymour and Blair of their nomi
nation performed that duty on Friday
evening of last week, in the same Hall where
the nominations had been made. An im
promptu mass meeting was organized upon
the occasion, and the anxiety to be present
was so great; that after the hall had become
packed thousands were still left oritAa.
Hon S T Tilden, of New York, was called
upon to preside, and on taking his seat made
a neat speech, in which hegave it as his firm
and dtliberate opinion that the Democratic
ticket w•ts certain of victory. He closed by
introducing to the audience, Gentral Morgan,
of Ohio, Chairman of the Committee, and
Governor Seymour. Upon the
,appearanee
of the latter, he was greeted with an outburst
of applause that lasted for several minutes,
and shook the building to its very foundation.
Gen. Morgan said:
Gov. Seymour: On behalf of the Commit ,
tee appointed for that purpose, I have the
honor to present to you this communication,
announcing your unanimous nomination as
candidate for the office of President of the
United States by the National Deinocratic
Convention ; and on behalf, Sir, of the Con
servative people of the United States, I have
the honor to represent, I here pledge their
united and cordial efforts in securing the re
lief of the country from the thraldom which
nor• oppresses it, and in placing you as the
chosen Chief Magistfate of the Nation in the
Exectpive chair.
Amid overwhelming applause, Gov:Sey
mour stepped forward and replied as fol
lows :
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Com
mittee—l thank you for the courteous terms
in which you hare communicated to me the
action of the National Democratic) Conven
tion.' I have no words adequate tiVeXnlyss
my.gratitutle Mr the good will and, kindness
which that body has shOwn to me. ry Its nom-
Mallon was unsought and unexpected. n It
was my ambition to take an active part, from
which I am now excluded, in the great strug
gle going on for the restoration of good -gov
ernment, of peace and prosperity to our
country. But I have been caught up by the
overwhelming title that is bearing Us on to a
great political change, and I find myself un
able to resist its power.
You have also given to'ine a copy of tht;
'resolutions put forth by the Convention,
showing its positions upon all the great ques
tions which now agitate the country. As
the presiding officer of that Convention,l am
thmiliar with their scope and import, aud as
one of its members lam a party - lo their
'terms. They are in accord with mywish,
and 1 stand upon them its the contest into
which we arc now entering. I shall strive
to carry them out in future, Wherever I may
be placed, in public - or private life.
I congratulate you and' all Conservative
men, who seek to restore order, peace, pros
perity and good government to our land,
upon the evidences everywhere seen that we
are to liumph at the next election. Those
wlid are politically opposed to us, flattered
theMselves that there would be discord in
our counsels. They mistook the uncertain
ties of our views as to the best methodsmf
carrying out our purposes, for differences of
opinion with regard to those purposes; they
mistook au intense- anxiety to do no act
which should not be wise and judicious for
a spirit of discord. During the lengthened
proceedings, and the keenest discussions of
the Conveution,.there has pi•eVaileq, an 01-
tire harmony of intercourse, a patient for—
bearance, and a self-sacrificing spirit, Which
are the sure tokens of coming victory. \ Ac
cept ,for yourselves, gentlemen, my wishes
for your future welfare and happiness. In a
few days I will answer the communication
you have just handed me, by letter, as is the
customary form,
Gen. Morgan then, addressed the nominee
for the Vice. Presidene7 as follows :
General Blair: The Committee appointed
by the Convention have made it my pleasing
duty, Sir, to announce to you your unani
mous nomination ns the Democratic candi
date for the office of Vice President of the
United States. In tendering to yon this nom
ination, we feel assured that it will not only
be hailed by acclamation by your fellow
citizens throughout the - United States, but i
thousands of your' allant comrades on many I
a well-fought, field under your lead will once
again rally to the Stars and Stripes in de—
fensd of free institutions.
After the applause had
-subsided, General
Blair made reply as follows:
I accept the platform and the resoiectons
passed by the late Democratic Con7ention,
and I accept their nomination with feelings
of the most profound gratitude. Sir, I
you for the very kind mann , ,..rli which
you have conveyed to me the decisiow of the
Democratic Convention. I accept the nomi
nation with the feeling that yournomination
for the Presidency is - one which will carry
us to certain victory, because I believe the
nomination is the most appropriate that !
could
,be made by the Democratic! party.
The contest whiclove4age is for the resto
ration of Constitutiontq GovernmMd. Acid
it is proper that we should make this contest
under the lead of one who las given his life
to the- maintainanco ofiConstitutiOnal Gov
entmbnt. ,We make this contest for the res- •
toration of those great -prinelpleo of govern
meta, which-belbng to our race, and, my fel
low-citizens, it is most appropriate that we
should select tekour leader, a man, not from
military life, 1)4 ono who has devoted hint
self to civil puisnits, one, who has given him
self to.study and the .understanding .of our
Constitution anif- its mahittimance, with all
the force df reason and judgment. My fel
low-citizens, I have said the contest before
us was one for the restoration of our Gov
ernment, It is also for the restoration of our
race. It is to pretrbnt the people of our race
front being exiled frdm thew homes—ex
iled,from the they creat
ed for themselves and for their childbenond
tc prOcal them trim Win tiliym oat into

semi-harlmrous • race. In this coniest we
shall have the sympathy of every itian who
is worthy tobeluug to the white races What
civilized people on earth• would refuge to as
sociate with themselves under all the rights.
honors and dignities of their. country• such
men as Lee and Johnson ? What civilized
country on earth would foil to do honor to
those who fighting for an erroneous calve
yet distingthshed themselves by a gallantry
never surpassed.• In that contest in' which
they were sought to,be disfranchised, and to
be exiled horn their homes ; in that Contest
they proved themselves worthy themselves.
3lv fellow-citizens, it is not my purpose to
make any addre44, but simply to express my
gratitude for the distinguished honor which
has been conferred on ,me. And noir, from
my heart, I feiterate the words thdt fell from
nty lips when I began. -
After longer speeches by other distin
guished gentlemen, the meeting adjourned,
An outside meeting had been organized in
the meantime, which was addressed by sev
eral prominent persona. When Gov. Sey
mour appealed at . the door,on the way to his
hotel, he was recognized and enthusiastically
welcomed. Quiet being restored,he stepped
ou the railing of the platform and said :
Pramow-errizEss: I thank you fur this
kind reception. lam unable with my broken
voice and exhausted frame, to do more than
to return you my sincere thanks for the com
pliment which you now pay me. • May God
bless you, and may Ile bless our country and
give us in the pending contest that triumph
which shall tend to constitutional law, good
order; peace and prosperity to our land. I
can say no more, but to bid you good night,
and once more to thank you for your kind
ness to me. •
Gen. Blair also appeared and qaid a I , w
words, which were well received.
GOV. SEYMO.UR AND THE NEW
YORK RIOTS.
As the main thing upon which the Radi
cals will harp against Gov. Seymour in the
campaign is his course during the New York
city riots in 1863, 4 it may be well at the, out
„set to place' the truth before the country in
Such a manner that it cannot be gainsayed.
On this subject we, fortunately, have testi
mony front so high a Radical source that no
member of that party who has any respect
for his good character will dare to dispute it.
We allude to George Opdyke, Ricci the Re
publican Mayor . of New , York, and now a
leading supporter of Grant. Mr. Opdyke
said of Goy. Seymour, in his official letter of
July 13, Itifi3 :
" • * As Governor of the State, and
Commander-id-chief of its military forces, he
superseded me in authority over the State
militia, commanded by General Sanford : but
General Wool, commanding the United States
military forces, continued tn, regard him,ell
as under my immediate directions, subject,
of course, to the approval of his own military
judgment - and to the commands of Isis lupe
flora at Washington. It affords me pleasure
to add, however, that among,all those in au -
thority, no diversity of sentiment manifested
itself. All co-operated in earnest efforts to'
restore the wonted peace and quiet of the
city by. the earliest possible suppression of the
outbreak:
"Shortly after 12' M., I sent the following
telegram to the Secretary of War:
"Melton's OFFICE, New York, July 14,1863.
"HoN. E. M. STANTON, Secretary of War':
"Stu: Your dispatch received. Demonstra
tions very threatening. Governor Seymour
is witti:us, and all the authorities, United
States, State and city, are co-operating in
efforts to suppress them. But our military
force at command is altogither inadequate.
If you can render any itsstlance, hy sending
a military force, please do so. I will keep
you advised.
" GEORGE OI'DYKE, Mayor."
.From a later letter, qt the close of the riot,
we quote the folltysting:
",Party interest and prejudices were ig
nored by them; their action was united and
harmonious; .the riot was speedily suppress
ed; and, considering the magnitude of the
danger and the slenderness of our means of
resistance, with extraordinary exemption
from loss of life and property. In all my
efforts I was ably and steadfastly seconded
by those heads of the city departments who
may be regarded as the representatives of the
Democratic party. Street Commissioner Cor
nell, Controller Brennan, City Inspector
Boole, Supervisors Tweed, Blunt and Purdy,
and IVilltamAl. Armstrong, Esq., of the
3layor's office, wert faithful and courageous
advisers." ' '
That disposes of the draft lie. We shall
not heat : anything more about it excepr!i
through.such Radical presses and speakers.
as. have no regard for their reputations.
remains` to he seen in what category the party
leaders and organs in this county will choose.
to place. themselves.
Tug NONSINATMN of Seymour and Blair`
has tue t with an enthusiastic reception from all
parts of the countm ; Unlike that of the Rat , -
icals there is no' ukewarnmess in any lo
cality. One of the best evitlences that euithl,
be obtained of its-being a strong ticket is the
abuse which the Ra , dicals heap upon it, and
the' rage it has throhm them into. They feel
that the nominations have nailed the Detho
cracy in this campaign as one man, and that
they , go into UM' canvass with a zeal and
earnestness which' it is itnpcqsible to obtain
in the Republican ranks for ,(}rant. Und9r
these circumstane s the contest will be a vigor
ous one, and as i progresses the line between
the supremacy the civil law on one side, and
the rule of ha - ebfbree on:the other, will
he so plainkir .. drawn thatall who desire to see
our forth of:government perpetuated, will be
obliged to - lake side for Seymour and Blair.
New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey; t' to
neeticut, California, Oregon, SlM•yhttid, Ken
tucky, Dela Ware and-Mississippi are certain
for the Democratic ticket beyond any perad
venture. The West alsti promises good re
sults, and even the representatives from the,
titate of Kansas declare that their State is
good for a Democratic majority this year.
The slight disappointMent ,felt by some of
Mr: Pendleton's friends is rapidly giving place
to genuine enthusiasm, and meetings
~ are
everywhere being held in favor of the candi
dates.
MR. PENDLETON AND GOV. SET.
- The
,following manly and gent , rons priVate
letter was' addressed by Mr. Pendleton to
Washington McLean, of the legation;
before that delegation left their home:
"CINCINNATI, Thursday, June 25, 1863.
'3lll DI:Alt Sin : You lett my ollice this
morning before I was aware of it. I seek
pm at home but you arc not here. I must
s ay what I want by note.
"As soon as you . get to New York see Gov.
rleymour. You know well my.affection and
aihnimtion for hint. You know well what
was my feeling before and after I heard from
him last fall. He is to-day the foremost
Num in our party in the United States. His
ability, cultivation, and experience put him
at the head of our statesmen. He commands
my entire confidence—l would rather trust
hint titan myself with the delicate duties of
'the next lour years. ;You know I tun sincere.
"Make ldm . feel this, and that he can rely
'pn me and my friends. I havb a natural
pride—an honest pride,• I believe—in the
good-will of my eountnymen, hilt you, beeter
than any one else, know that it is neither
egotistical nor over-riding, and that I am
ready—anxious lo give up the nomination to
anybody who can get one single vote more
'than myself.
"Express all this frankly to the Governor,
hut delicately, and let him understand my
views of men and measures as I have fre
quently given them to you. Good-bye. God
bless you!
' "Very truly,
"GEORGE 11. PENDLETON
"To Washington McLean, Esq."
THE SDDTUERN , DELEGATES.
The. Radical press are calling attention to
the fact that many. 7 9f the prominent men of the
south who were engaged in the late rebellion,
as it was called, are delegates to the New
York Convention. They speak of it as if it
was a fact that ought to excite indignation.
Yet if we are ever to resume our old relations
:with the Seuth—why should we not frater
niz.e with its leading menin common Nation
al movements? It is to the credit of the Dem
.otratic party that it is a Union organUation,
and that it is honestly endeavoring to leal
:the sores of the late cruel war. The Radicals
a u'e not themselves indisposed to associate
I 7rotenaally with thC:4ate rebels! They had

IF THE respective nominees of the two par

noon to travel over the country together and
give their views upon political topics, nine
men out of ten would vote for Mr. Seymour.
About all that LA ficeessary, in' act, is for the
people to see the two men. It would not be
a bad idea for the Democratic Committee to
circulate generally tlieir respective photo
graphs.
WHILE some of the Radical paper.; are
representing that our platform is double-faced
and susceptible of two interpretations, the
New York Times, more honest, says :
"On the financial question the platform is
positive enough. There is no ambigutiy in
the brief and ringing sentences which pro:
vide' for the payment in paper of bonds not
expressly made payable in gold, which affirm
the universal application of the legal-tender
currency, and call for the taxation of bonds
in common with all other property. Tire

• 'Dear .493.A'xrrr:—Our little village contin
ues to Move along in its usual quiet manner,
seldom 'disturbed by police arrests, elope-
Ments, suicides or any Of that class of local
items which have become so common - ant/
interesting in these latter times. The. anni
versary of the Nation's birth came and went
with but little observation ,in theSe parts; all
the patriotism we saw displayed, vas by the
usual fire-cracker and noiV torpedo. Quite
extensive preparations had been:made by the
Republicans of our town and vicinity for a
Ihstival of 'political rejoicingupon that day.;
hoping that by having it upon the nationat
'holiday, to be able to get " the livery of
heaven to serve the devil in." As subver
slons of noble things to bas t e and dishonest,
purposes always fail, so failed this last,meafi
est attempt. Their " festival" was a fizzle.
A " liberty pole" was to be raised at "'J
a. m.," but so few put in their appearanCe
that they' '`awceeded in getting up a skinned,
black-rotten‘knotted hemlock pole, some
time after 3 p. m. It was christened by
three very feeble cheers for Gen. Grant. It
•is the common remark of those who mingle
with the people cf different localities, that
the cheers and hurrahs for Gen:-G rant are
inVariably very tamp.. As the WhsiCr, who
had been long sick with the fever and ague,
said of himself—they are "powerfully weak."
The bills-of announcement called upon re
publicans in " all the surrounding town
ships" to ",come one', conic an." §everal
hundreds were expected to answer this
hearty appeal, yet when the happy family
gathered round t4tlestive board, forty, at a
dollar apiece, were ttll who sal down to the
-national festival. „After having' insulted the
sacred day 'by rilis:lng a skinned hemlock
pole, they futile; desecrated ir by placing
upon it a large sized cow bell, I;Jr what pur
pose no one knows, save it be to call:togeth
er the mourners next . fall, The speaking
was very dry, and fell upon the small audi
ence (there were just forty-two pr6enti
sounding brass. The , only thing that - pro
' voke4 a laugh was the;"Lark of a dog. There
is redly something very significant in the
fact That Grant fails to inspire any enthusi
ssmor :spirit into the party. The audience
dropph out one by.one, when the speakers
,thought they would;go too, and so the great
celebration ended ; :some half dozen who did
all the:work wiser if nokbetter men. '
The next meeting of the happy family was
held (according to well circulated notice) on
31ondakniglit following, at which there
were fig present. How happy-they are
_in
each other's• company I How happily they
agree! Tlil primary election for candidates
was quite well attended, and also attended
with extensive pulling and' hauling. Here,
again, how happy they were! The vote was
not flatteriCg to our home candidates—rather
poor reward for a session's service at Hank
burg, or far leaving is sound, appreciative
party and going over to the rabble for office.
There is but one opiniOn among the Demo
crats here, in reference to the worKof our
great convention, which simply is, that a
better platform was never made for 'a truly
honest and - patriotic party, and a better
man was never ()Ilona to the Choice of the
American ,people. The odds are great against
us; abundance of money among office hold
ers, and- the, power of military rule in the
Southern states, yet Democrats, who have
sacrificed so much for their C6untry, will
still labor for her restoration to peace and
