SEWARD ON THE NoMINATToN OF LINCOLN
Some pains have been taken to have it appear,
that Senator Seward and his friends in New York
have been alienated from the Republican cause
by the nomination of Lincoln. Those who have
Aattered themselves, that New York viii be less
true to Lincoln, than to Seward, had the latter
been nominated, need not entertain that deep
ton any longer. The Central Republican Com.
mittee of New York, having address ed letter
ofinvitation to Mr.. Seward, to attend ratifca>
ton meeting of the Chicago nomination, Mr.
Seward sends areply Astounding in noble and
patriotic sentiments. In speaking of Chicago
Convention, Mr. Seward says
II find in the resolutions of the Convention
platform as satisfactory to me as if it had been
framed with my own hands, and in the candi.
dates adopted by it, eminent and able Republic
cans with whom have cordially co.operated in
maintaining the principles embodied in that ex-
cellent creed l cheerfully give them sincere
and earnest support"

THE MoURNERs.-Our Democratic brethren,
seem greatly afflicted, because the Republican
Convention was so ungrateful, as not to :nomi'
nate Mr.. Seward for the Presidency They have
suddenly made the discovery that he is a great
statesman, man of uncommon abilities, and
eminently worthy to have obtained the nomi-
nation at Chicago. Only short time since, Mr..
Seward was assaied with every kind of epithet,
by the very men who now affect to be afflicted
because the convention failed to put him in nom.
ination. That our Democratic friends dolsorrow,
there is no doubt the true cause however Of
their discomfort is, that Lincoln has been tri-
umphantly nominated, under such auspices as
foreshadow his election.

FRUIT PRosPEcT.-We learn that the
fruit PROSPECTS, especially apples,in this
section of country are regarded quite
good-that is, good for this latitude.
Apple-trees have blossomed well, and
give good indications Of fruit bearing.
The peach prospect is quite poor, and
there will be but little or no fruit Of this
sort in this county. Plums and cherries,
we learn give no unusual prospect of
abundance.

LincoIn's Ability and Popularity.

There are facts which 90 to show the ability
of Mr.. Lincoln, and his popularity with the peo-
pie, which cannot be gainsayed, because they
are matters of record. In 1858 when Mr.. Doug
las was candidate for reelection to the U. S.
Senate, the Republicans of Illinois in State Con-
vention, determined to put forward the strongest
man in their ranks, to compete with Mr.. Doug
las for that post. Abraham Lincoln was VnaRi-
mously designated as their representative man,
to stump the State against Douglas. Mr.. Lin
coin went into this canvass under disadvantage
Gus circumstances in several respects. Many
Republicans in Illinois, thought it impolitic to
oppose the election of Douglas; the n. Y. TriJ-
une also, paper having larger circulation in H.
lnois, than any other, favored the return of
Douglas to the U, S. Senate, in consideration Of
his opposition to the Lecompton constitution,
which Congress attempted to force upon Kansas.
The influence Of the n. Y. Tribune doubtless
largely damaged the interests of Lincoln. In
addition to this. there was in Illinois large or
ganization of the American party-that party
having poled over 81 900 votes in 1856 John
J. Crittenden, an acknowledged leader Of the
party, addressed letter to the Americans
of Illinois, counseling them to cast their votes
for the Douglas ticket. This very likely infu-
enced thousands of votes for Douglas. Yet in
the face of all these disadvantages the popular
vote for the Republican ticket for members of
the Legislature, exceeded the Douglas ticket by
4,O85. The unfairness with which the legsla-
tive districts Of the State were constituted, was
the defeat of Mr.. Lincoln by the Legislature.

THE DIFFERENCE.--The Charleston Demo-
cratic Convention, after nearly a two weeks ses-
sion, and exhibiting all sorts of antagonisms, and
every phase of opinion failed to agree on a Flat
form, or on Presidential candidate, and broke
up in confusion, without accomplishing any of
the objects for which it assembled. The Chca-
90 Republican Convention, on the second day
Of its meeting, adopted platform with hardly a
dissenting voice and On the third day, nomina-
ted candidate for the Presidency, which nomi-
nation was finally confirmed by the whole body
assembled, with unanimity unparalleled in the
history of National conventions Every Repub-
ican Newspaper from the Atlantic to the Rocky
Mountains has sanctioned the action of the Chi
cago convention. How preposterous to suppose
that the now fragmeHtary Democracy, has any
reasonable hore of success over the united Ma
tional Republicans.
