Mr.. SEWARD NOT ABOUT TO RETIRE TO
PRIVATE LIFE. - The Philadelphia Inquirer
has dispatch from Washington to the effect
hat Mr.. Seward has telegraphed to his
friends that the rumor that be intended to
resign his seat in the Senate is without
foundation. Although, says the dispatch,
his friends are indignant at his defeat, they
state that he will not only endorse the NOM
inee, but made speech approving him, and
the platform on which he stands, as adopted
at Chicago.
The N. Y. Iribvnes Washington CORES
pondent says the friends Of Mr.. Seward, who
are best auth orized to speak in his behalf,
rebuke in the most emphatic terms the sug-
gestion that he will give cold or halting
support to Mr.. Lincoln, or encourage any
lukewarmness in others.

FoR LINCoLN.-The Buffalo Commercial
Advertiser, a journal Of great ability and
influence, which, in 1856, supported Mr..
Fillmore, places the Chicago ticket at the
head Of its columns, and, while PROCESSING
great respect for the ticket nominated At
Baltimore, by the :" Constitutional Unionists,"
calls on all prudent men, wishing to cast their
votes where they will tell against the
iniquitous power now enthroned at Washing
ton, to rally to the support Of the Republican
candidates, whose success, it says, is not only
possible, but strongly probable. It.adds:
"With such views of the Chicago platform
and nominations, with the knowledge that the
little strength belonging to John Bellin this
State is already diminished by a considerable
secession to Sam Houston, and with the Old
Whig hatred of Democracy, nursed in with
our mothers milk, and strong to-day as in
1844,I in our hearts, we conceive it to be, our
duty to place the names of Lincoln and
Hamlin ut the head of our columns, as pledge
that we will extend to them such honorable
and faithful support as may belong to our

The HOMESTEAD BILL. - The House of
Representatives has rejected the Seaate's
mockery Homestead Bill, and re-adopted its
own instead, by vote of 104 to SO. A
conference committee will be the result, in
which the measure will most likely be
strangled by the pro-slaveryites, who are
afraid of its operation in the Territories on
their ''peculiar institution" Bear this in
mind, you free white laboring men, who want
homes of your own. The Democratic party
processes to be in favor of legislating for the
white man, but this proves that their only
concern is for the 'nigger." s-.

LETTER FROM Mr.. SEwARD.-A letter of Mr..
Seward to the New York Republican Com
mittee is published, in which he expresses his
high appreciation of the many assurances of
confidence which steal upon him through the
channels of private correspondence. In regard
to the Chicago nominees, he says they are
both eminent and able Republicans, and he
will give them his sincere and earnest support.
Regarding the presentation of his own name
to the Convention, which, he says, was done
by his friends, and not by himself, he remarks:
81 have no sentiment either of disappointment
or of discomfort, for who in any possible case
could, without presumption, claim that great
national party ought to choose him for its
candidate for the first Office in the gift of the
American people?' The Cincinnati Gazette
says "the letter will gain Mr.. Seward new
friends, and bind closer to him his old
adherents." .... ....-..
