" My friends, I have sent my adjutant to Washington to stop the draft," said Seymour to the New York rioters. No use for him to send his adjutant to stop the draft from Pennsylvania and Ohio. It can't be done. The draft must chill his very marrow. The Natiox, which has heretofore been rathor democratic, says the democracy have uow "nothing whatever to hope for except within the limits of New York city ; even Mr. Hoffman's defeat, it would seem, is se cured by the decisive victory in Pennsyl vania, and that no selling out of Mr. Seymour can now give the State to Tain- 'onrh nun ay.

C. 15. GOULD. MR. SEYMOUR'S PLEA. The popular verdict in the three great Middle States having lecn ad verso to Mr. Seymour's aspirations for the Presidency, ho has in desperation taken tho stump, and 13 travelling through, the country, soliciting the votes ot the people for the highest office in their gift. In this electioneering tour Mr. Seymour has already made two elaborate speeches, at Buffalo and Cleve- and, in whioh, his principal argument is, that if his party ia successful, it can not do much harm. The elections aL ready held show that the Republicans will retain their Congrssional majority, and Mr. Seymour begs for office on the J .nf,, PnngMM will not allow bim to carry out the revnlni wjmm ui ui3 party, lie will thus, at all events, be powerless for evil. it may safely be said tho Presides tial office was never before degraded by sucn abject mendicancy, but Mr Sey mour s reasoning is its own best confu. tation. Since the assasination of Mr. Lincoln, the country has had ample op poriuuity to observe the countless evils of a divided Government in which the Legislature and the Executive are an tagonistic. Only the institutions as strong as ours have proved themselves to be, could havo survived the fearful strain to which they have thus been ex posed, and it is doubtful whether even they could endure a prolongation of this conflict for four years more. Besides this, every interest, material and moral of the country is suffering under unccr. talnty inseparable from this perpetual strne within the Government. What the people want is peace and quiet UdeotUrant and every section of the Union settles down to the ceitainty of a line of policy, to which it speedily ao. commodates itself; political excitement subsides, and the energies of the com mumty are directed to industrial ad vancement and repairing the losses and dest-uction of the war.

Last week ot St. Louis, General Blair made a 5peoch,characteri!it;d by the New Yoik orld as "masterly," iu which he gave currency to a statement the Roths childs had sent half a million of dollars iuto Pennsylvania to help carry tho election. As the' chairman of tho National Democratio Executive Com wit tee, Augustus Belmont, is American agent of the Rothschilds,Gcncral Blaiils story if true, may explain where the funds were obtained for the expensivo system of naturalization and coloniza tion by which tho Democracy expected to carry the State. fiSTWe have yet a few days to work before tho Presidential election. Let us keep our lamps trimed and burning, and take every possible precaution gainst the pol'ing of fraudulent votes, so that we may give an increased ma jority for the candidates of justice and frco popular govenmcnt. (K7Freerjan of Elk oouuty, remem ber that the election of Seyaioru and Blair, would inaugurate revolution in accordence with the declaration of Erank Blair. Further, it will causo total or paitial repudiation, the utter prostration of finances, and the conscs quent stagnation of business of all kinds. SThe New York Woril in a re cent editoral, says that thew ia no use discussing the fact that the young men of the country are Dot in tha Democrat ic party. This is a remarkuble admis sion and augurs well for the future of tho country, as upon the young men alone depends the future prosperity of the party of the country. YouDg men, see to it that the assertion of the World is made good. l&,Grant is pledged to the speedy restoration of peace and good order in the Southern States. Frank Blair, the head of the ticket, is pledged to sweep away the re-construction meas ures which have already done much to ward restoring these States to their Drooer relations in the Union, on -'; v" mure reuuee lueu tu condition ot anarchv and confusinn Which will you support ? lThe effect of the election of Oraot oJ ColfaA will to to at crush out the rebel organizations that now exist in the South. Already tht Ku Klux Klans are in trcpedation The recent elections havo foreshadowed their fate if they continiio in their evl ways. After the 4th of March, and by the triumphal election of our candidates they will be swept away like the autumn leaves, without bloodshed and without confusion. BtSTho recent eclections prove con clusively that Grant is to be (he next President of the United States, but wo must not therefore relax our exertions, Much still remains to be done. We have the result of our labors on the 13th inst. to guide us. We know what Re publican voters were absent, and can take measurers to sscure their attend ance on the da, 01 November.
