G 0 V. SEY.MO VI? IS L E TIER OF
ACCEPTANCE.
New Youk, Aiki. Tt. ISfiS.
Tho following is Horatio Seymour's
lcttnr of acceptance of the Democratic
nomination for the Presidency :
Vtica, Au. 4, liiS.
Genti,e'.t:n : Whcu in the city of
New York on the 11th ult. in the pres
ence of a vast; uuiltitddc, on buliali' of
the National Democratic Convention,
you tendcrod to me its unaniinnna nom
ination as thvir candidate for the olaee
of President of the United States. I
stated I had do words adequate to ex
press my prititudc for the good will and
kindness which that, lndy has shown to
me. Its nomination was unsought and
unexpected. It was my ambition to
take an active part,f;uui which I utu now
excluded, iu the great struggle going on
ior the restoration ol a good govern
ment, of pcicc and prosperity to our
country. J5ut 1 have been couctit up
by the overwhelming tide which bear-
iu" us on to a great political cfcange,
and I find myselt unable to resist its
pressure, lou hav also giveu me a
copy of tho resolutionn put forth by the
Convention ; showing its position upon
all the grout questions which now agi
tato the country, As the presiding of
licer of the Convention, I am l'uuiil:ar
with their scope and import. As one
it its members I am a party to their
teres. They are in cacord with my
view?, and I stand upon them in the
coutcst which we arc now entering, and
L shall strive to carrWhem out in fu
ture, wherever I maybe plnced in polit-
icnl or private Inc.
1 then' stated that I would send you
these words of acceptance in a letter as
is the cu.- to'.iiaiy form. 1 see no reason
upon rcilccliou, to change or qualify the
terms of mv approval of the resolutions
of the Convention. I have delayed tho
mere -formal act of comniunicatii'g to
you in willing what I thus publicly
siid, lor the purpose of Keeing what
; i 'It t the action of Coneress would
thr.iw upon the interests of the country.
I ts acts since the adiourumeut of the
Convention, show an alarm lest change

people what they oti;;!it to have -a ilcar

the money dtawn from them during the
oast t i 'lit year,-;. J liontilittiil men leel
doit there have been wrougs in the fi
nancal management which nave ucen

itself in perpetual ses.-ion with the

whij'i v. ill ta'rce plaee within a f..w
week-. It did not therefore adj iu'-:i,
but took a recess to meet again if its
partism interests shall demand its reas
sembling. Never before in the history
of our countiy has Congress taken a
men icing attitude towards its electors.
I'niU'r its influence some of the States
orga.ii.ed by its agents are proposing to
depr.ve the people of f ho richt to vote
lor presidential electors, and the lirst
bold stot s are taken to destroy the
righ's of sufhage.
It is not strange, therefore, that
thou ;l.tful men see in such action the
proof thr.t there is with those who shape
the policy of the Republican party mo-
tivoi stronger and deeper than the mere
wish to hold political power. There is
a drjad of some exposure which drives
them on to acts so desperate and so an
politic. Many of the rblest loaders and
journals of the llcpublicnn party hr.ve
openlv deplored 'he violence of Con.

keco mi despoil in our country. Tl.

supplicants that Congress Would give
them power within their respective
States, are to day tho masters and eon--trollers
of the actions of these bodies.
Entering them with minds filled with
passions, their fair demands have been
that Cougrcss shall look upon the
States from which they conic as in con
ditions of civil war; that the majority
of their population embracing their in
telligence shall bo treated as public cue.
niics; that military lorces shall bo kept
up at the cost of the North, and that
there shall be no law find order at me
South, save that which i3 made by an
arbirtary power. Kvcry intcligent man
knows that they not only owe their
present positions to disorder, but that
every motif c springing from tho love of
power, of gain, and of a desire for yen
geauceprouipts them to keep the South
in anarchy, Vt'hile that exists they are
in dependence ol the wills or wishes ot
their fellow citizens. W rule the con
fusion reigns they are tho dispensers of
the profits and lionors which grow out
ot a government of mere force. These
men are now placed m positions where
they can not only urge their veiws of
policy, but whero they Citi enforce
them. When others shall be admitted
iu this aiuuncr from tho remaining
Southron States, although they will
have in truth no constituents, they will
have more power in the Senate than a
majority of tho people of this Union
livinc in nine of the great States. In

lerotoioro ciun" to tneir party, wuo
ave regretted the extremes of violence
to which it has run. They have cher.
ished a faith that while tho action of
their political friends have been mis.
taken, thirir motives have been good.
They must now see that the Republican
party is iu that condition tnat it cannot
carrv out a wise and peaceful policy,
whatever its motives maybe, it is a
misfortune not only to a country but to
a governing party itself, when its actions
arc unchecked by any form of opposi
tiou. It has been the mislortuno ot the
HepnViier.n party that the events of the
past few years hive gif'n it so much
power th.it it has been aole to sliacklo
the hxecutive.to trammel the Jud.ciavy,
and to carry out tho views of the most
r.nwise and violent ot its r.iembers.
II hen this state of thimrs exists in any
party, it has ever been found that the
judgements of its ablest leaders do not
contiol. There is hardly an able man
who helped to build up the Republican
organization, who has not within the
t three years warned it against its
excesses, who has not been borne down
and forced to give up his convictions cf
what the interests ot the country de
mands, or, if too patriotic to do this
who has not been driven from its ranks
If this has been the case heretofore,
what will bo its action with this new
infusion of men who without a decent
respect for tho views of those who had
just given them their positions, begin
their legislative career, and demand
that their States hall bo regarded as iu
a condition ot civil war, and with a
declaration that they nre ready and
anxious to disregard the President of
the United States, whenever tiiey can
pursuadc or force Congress to brin
iorward new articles ot impeachment?
Tho Republican party, as well as we, are
interested in pining some check on this
violence. It mut le cletr to every
thinking man that a division ot every
political party tccds to check the vio-

tives, would not give to that party or
ganization the power to make sudden or
violent change0, but it would serve to
cheek thosi extreme measures which
bavJ been deplored by tho best men of
both political organizations. Tho result
would most certainly lead to that, peace
ful restoration of the Union and the re
establishment of fraternal relationship
which the country needs. I am sure
that the best men of the lvcpubhcuu
party deplore as deeply as I do the
spirit ot violence shown by tnose recent
ly admitted to scats in Congress from
the South. The condition ot civil war
which they contemplate must be abhor
rent to every right thinking man. 1
have no personal wishes which mislead
my judgment in regard to the pending
elections. No man who has weighed
unti measured the duties of the ollico of
President of tho United States can fail
to be impressed with thi cave and toils
of him who is to meet its demands. It
is not merely to float with popular cur
rents without a policy or a purpose. O.i
the contrary, while our constitution
trives iut weight to tho public will, its
distinguishing features is that it sock.5 to
protect tho lights of uiiuor'.ties. Its
ercatest glory is that it puts restraints
upon power, lt gives force and form to
those maxims and principles of civil
liberty lor which the martyrs of freedom
have Btruirtrlcd through ages, it uo

that Congress shall make no laws res'
pecting an establish mont of religion -or
the free exercise thereof, or abridging
the freedom of speech, or of the press,or
of the right of the people to petition tor
redress of grievances. It se-jurcs tue
rittht of a speedy and public trial by an
impartial iury. No man can ngollii:
enter on the duties of tho Presidential
office unless he is not only willing to

mass ot the Republican party are more
thoughtful, temperate, nnd just than
they were during the excitement which
attended the progress and close of the
civil war. As the energy of tho Demo
cratic party sprung irom their devotion
t( j.heir cause and not to their eaudi dates.
1 may, with piopnety, speak ot tno
fact that never in the political history of
our countiy has tho action of auy like
body been hailed with such universal and
wide spread enthusiasm as that which
has been shown in relation to the posi
tion of toe National Democratic Conven
tion. The energy ot the conservative
managers spring from a tlesite to
make a change of a political policy
Mid from the confideueo that they'
can carry out their purpose in this
faith they are strengthened by the co
operation of the :real body of those who
served iu the Union army and navy
during the war. Having given ncar.iy
sixteen thousand commissions to tho
officers of that army,I know their views
and wishes. They demand the Union
for which they fought. Tho large
meeting cf thesa soldiers who assembled
in New York endorsed the action of tho
National Convention. In words distinct
with meaning they called upon the
government to slop its policy ot hate,
discord, and disunion, and iu terms ot
fervid cloiiacnco they demauded tho res
toratiou of the rights and liberties of
the American people. lieu there is
sueh accord between those who proved
themselves bravo and self saci'iucm-' it
war and those who are thoughtful nnd
pontic in council. 1 cannot doubt, vm
shall gain a political triumph v. hih will
restore our Union, bring buck peace and
prosperity to our land, and will give us
once more tho ble.-sings of a wide, ceo.

summoning a couple of tho workmen to
precede hint tvit!i their lamps, he explored
the V n ious galleries of the mine, nnd hav
ing made a plan of the workings, returned
to the bottom of the shaft, pot. into the bus
ket, and gave the signal for tho ascent.
As he plnced himself in the tmsnet, no
remarked ihe grent thickness of the rope
which sewed to hoist, nnd cnlcuhiteu tliat,
the mine being imustiiillp deep, Ihe ascent
could scarcely be accomplished in less than
a iiuarter of nil hour. He hud been ascend
ing thus for two or three minutes, when
chancing to rune his eyes, he espied what
seemed to him lo be nn abrasion of the ropo
by weieh he tvos being drawn up. Startled
by this appearance, he fived his eyes oil
the portion of thd rope which had attracted
Jos attention, ttud saw distinctly thnt tho
rope vns cut a tew feet nliove his head,
just out of reach of his hand. His terror
at, this discovery v.as such that he ncitrly
bullied. Ituitsin;: himsett, by lorceot will.

come hiia, he coin, e Pcd himself to enhn
l.ess, and sel himself again to examine tho
rope. Perhaps he was mistaken ; lie
would look again : but no, he was not mis
taken. The rope had rubbed against some
projection of the rocky walls which hemmed
him in, nnd its strands were untwisting
slowly but visibly. At the injured point
the thickness of the massive cable was al
ready reduced to less than tin inch.
The lintortunate man felt that his doom
was sealed; the conviction of the utter
hopelessness of his position, chilled him lo

Moreover, he fell that, even if he could
make himself heard, nn human aid could
reach him. Looking upward he could seo
