Letter from ex-Gov. Seymour.

UTICA, June ., 1860.
The following letter from Ex-Governor Seymour
in relation to the of his name in connection with
the Baltimore nomination, is published in the Utica
Daily Observer:
To the editor Of fhe Daily Observer Although
have at all times objected to the use Of my name in
connection with the nomination to be made Ly the
National Democratic Convention and you have also
repeatedly in the past year, with my approval, con-
tradicted in your journal the that was will
ling TO take place upon the National ticket l find
that am still spoken Of by the press and indvdu-
ais for the Office of President or Vice President
While am gratfed with the expression Of conf
dence and regard which receive from this State
and other sections Of Our country, deem II due 20
myself and others TO state publicly that | do not
wish the nomination for either Office, and have re-
quested the delegation from this Congressional dis
trict TO withdraw my name in case il is presented
to the Convention which will meet in Baltimore on
the 18th inst. In common with the masses of the
Democratic party, look forward with confidence
and hope to the result of that Convention. feel
assured that il any fit and patriotic person shall he
presented with any uuanimity, a certain triumph
awaits u.s. The contest involves the highest inter-
ests of our people and the stability of our insttu-
tons, and wish to be left free to do battle against
the spirit of meddng fanaticism which has been so
hurtful TO the honor of our country and 5aneful
in its effect upon public morality.

Maryland----John Bell.
he Baltimore Patriot of the 29th says


We f,Sbiished yesterday an extract front the nd.
mirable address ofthe Hon. John Bell to the citi-
zens OF Louisville, while his way TO his home In
Nashville. II advances precisely those sentiments
which ought to be acceptable in Maryland and
which ought TO be acceptable in every part of the
Union lie trut said that If the feeling which per
vaded the National Union Convention al Baltimore
could be infused throughout the country by that
party, unborn generations would call the organza-
tion blestthat ofts great objects was To frown
down and extinguish sectionalism everywhere
sectionalism begun on side by the Democratic
party, whose extreme violence had generated thro'
mistaken notion Of selfdefeHce, the sectionalism
OF the North; which had thus been aggray ased
and increased, by ambitious men, for their own
uses, until the country was completely sick and
disguised with them and their work There were
already signs of returning reason among many on
both sides The masses Of the people, both North
and South, he believed, were really conservative,
and would gladly rally to the support of that party
which, unlike either of the Others did not derive
Its vitality from the eternal agitation of the never
ending Slavery question, whose only result was
pickering and quarrelng, and ill-blood, which
promised to end in disunion and fratricida war.
These are exactly the doctrines of the people of
Maryland. Democracy, whether of the Free-soil
species under Douglas, or of the fire-eating kind
under Jefferson Davis, is not in fashion in this
State and the next election will result as in 1856
in the triumph here Of Constitutional Union ptin-
ciples. If other States will only do their part a.
well as Maryland, we have no anxiety as to the
result.

The Union Ticket in Missouri.

The acceptance by the Hon. Edward Everett of
the nomination Of the Union party for the Vice Pre-
sidency, completes the programme marked out by
the late Convention at Baltimore, aud leaves moth
ing further TO ask on the part Of the Opposition Of
Missouri. In obedience to the overw helminp wishes
OF the great body Of the opponents ofthe Democrat
te party in Missouri, not less than in accordance
with our own convictions of pubc duty We An.
nounce our purpose to yield hearty support 10
John Bell of Tennessee for President and Edward
Everett OF Massachusetts, for Vice President of the
United States,
The Opposition Of Missouri have a proud consci-
business that in supporting the ticket of BELL and
Everett they are supporting men of incorruptible
integrity, ofnationa fame aid of lifelong expcri-
ence in the public service, well fitting them for the
high stations for which they are named In ad,li-
ton to their unblcmiSlcd reputation as men the
patriotism of Bell aud Everett is as broad as the
Republic itself They were never involved In any
sectional strife. 1t is remarkable fact--a signal
and admirable coincidence-that should arrest the
attention of every patriot in the land that of all tho
statesmen belonging TO the South, John Bell has
most OF the respect and confidence of the people of
the North. And of all the Northern statesmen, no
one is so much beloved and trusted at the South as
Edward Everett
Is not the ticket of Bell and Everett most noble
one for all the friends ofthe Union both North and
South, to rally around! The iealousy of neither
part of the Republic would he aroused bS the enc
cess ofthe ticket The South would get its tvorite
among all the public men of the North. The North
would get its tpvorite among all the public men of
the South.-The era of confidence, good feeling,
fraternity and love would be restored between the
North and South
The patriots of Missouri are determined to work
with hearty zeal in the noble cause of Bell and
Everett. Their zeal will he Inspired by a well
grounded confidence Of success. The first Opptsi-
Iion votes Of Missouri for President and Vice Presi
lent can and 'cW be given for the illistrious in
sOruptible patriots; Bell and Everett

THE VALUE oE lioSEsrY.--lt is reported that dur
ing the first week in which the officials from Wash
ington took possession Of the New York Postofice,
the receipts rose TO $4,000 or about S., 900 more
than ordinary average. This startling fact is sup
posed to indicate the extent of the frauds which
must have been practiced in that Office, and which
could not have been confined To Fowler alone. The
whole system of accountability has been loose aud
entirely unreliable for protection agains, robbery
Checks have now been established which will tend
to some degree Ofsafety. The detection and escape

nomination OF that body as its candidate for the
Office of President of the United States
After frank interchange of sentiment in which
the merits Of all the distinguished candidates pre-
sented for consideration canvassed in the
most friendly spirit the Convention resolved, with
entire unanimity and great enthusiasm, to place
your name before the American people, the
chosen representative of its principles of constitu
tional liberty and union.
With just appreciation of your known modera-
tion and JUSTICE your uniform support of wise and
benifcent measures Of legislation; your firm and
heroic resistance of the repeal of the Missouri Com
premise and all kindred measures calculated to en-
gender sectional dscord and your lifelong devotion

The Texas Delegation 10 Chicago
BOguS-RepubliCan MANAGEMENT.

The reader of the proceedings Of the Chicago
Convention will remember thu. David Wilmot OBJ
Jected TO the so-called Texas delegation US bogus
affair and also TO some Of the other delegations pur-
porting to be from Southern States, and he will
remember what u hornets nest tho said David
thereby disturbed in the neighborhood of his ears
Indeed he was hOOted aud stung into Silence
"BogusP indeed as II anything about that Con-
vention was bogus, or as IL the Convention was in
reality sectional and not natonal
The Detroit Free Press comes TO tho vindicaton
of David, and shows beyond doubt that he was
right and that the so-called TOxas delegation was
bogus. The Press says:
"The delegation pretending to represent Texas
was gotten up at Granu Haven, in this State. Ths
names Of the delegates, as they appeared In the
published list, were Dunbar Henderson, James
Scott J. Strauss, G. Fitch delegates at large 4. j.
Garrison, William Seagrst, NJ. T. 4. Chandler, A. J.
foakum, district delegates'-not Of whom was
ever within a thousand miles of Texas. OF these
fellows, Dunbar Henderson is other than Don
q. Henderson, the editor Of a one-horse Black Re
publican paper at Allcgan, in this State; James
Scott is James p. Scott the Black Republican
County Clerk Of Ottawa county; j. Strauss s
simply j. Strauss, the keeper Of small beer saloon
in the village Of Grand Haven NJ. T. Il. Chandler
is a resident Of Canada East, and is not now and
never a citizen Of the United States, but at the
time the movement started he was on n visit 10
some frioRds In Grand Haven, and readily entered
into it, The others, we believe did not attend the
Convention, but all Of them residents Of Grand
Haven and its immediate vicinity. Henderson was
one of the Secretaries Of tho Convention and
Chandler the British subject was one Of the Vice
Presidents"
But this is not all. The Press saws further that
an old man by the name Of A. Benning a resident
Of Grand Haven, Michigan was fitted out with u
full set of credentials from the State of Georgia and
was empowered to cast the whole twenty votes Of

LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE
FROM
Honorable Edward Everett
Mn. HUNT TO HON. EDWARD EVERETT.

Ah' NUM- ~ NUM- hDhAh
BALTIMORE, llth May, 1860.
DEAR SIR: II has become my agreeable duty, as
the presiding officer of the National Union Conven-
tion, which terminated its session in this city last
evening, to inform you that you have received the
nomination of that body its candidate for
the Office Of Vice President of the United States.
II would be far beyond my power to convey TO
you an adequate impression of the intense ardor,
and enthusiasm with which the nomination was
made. Without the formaity of a ballot, your
name was on every lip, and was adopted with loud
acclamations coming from grateful and patriotic
hearts,
State after State We'd with each other for the
privilege of rendering 10 you its tribute of affection
ate homage and admiration.
The high estimate of your valuable public servi-
ces entertained by the whole country, and the uni
versal gratitude excited by your voluntary efforts
as private citizen, to imbue the minds of your
coursrymen with feelings of love and yeneration
for the character Of Washington and respect for
his character and teachings were reflected by the
Convention in manner at once impressive, appro-
pirate and gratifying.
1t was believed, moreover that the association of
your name with that of John Bell as candidates
for the highest offices in the gift of the nation,
would of itself constitute an Irresistible appeal TO
the patriotism, loyalty and national spirit of the
whole American people.
In this season of discord and distraction we feel
it to be paramount duty TO make an earnest effort
to revive sentiments of harmony and brotherhood
between the different States and sections of our
Union.
We were not ignorant of your cherished purpose
to decline in future the cares and honors of official
station yet we do not permit ourselves TO doubt
that the same sentiment of patriotism which your
voice and example have inspired in the hearts of
Others, will prompt you to yield to the call now
made upon you, by large and respectable portion
of your countrymen
have the honor TO be, with high respect,
Your obedient servant
[Signed] WASHINGTON HUNT

I'LL OK FIs.-The Memphis Enquirer makes a
forcble application of good anecdote in thc follow

called to attend patient who was suffering from a
violent attack of bilious fever. After examining the
patient with great sclemnty the doctor said he did
not profess 10 know much about evers hut he could
throw the man into fits, aud he was h--ll on fits.
The Democratic party have thrown the county into
fever, which they acknowledge they cannot curs,
but il we trust them little longer, they will throw
as into fits and then we safe for they h--ll
on fits. At the risk Of being considered singular,
We shall take the libcry..of calling in another ply
sican. The Democratic party have been saving the
Union for twelve years and they tell ms that II
IL In more danger than ever II is time the work
was coniided 10 other hands.

the fate Of the Union depends upon keeping DeIno-

BSy- We find in the Mobile Adpertser the follow
ing extract from the Mississippi C5aseTratVe, strong
Democratic paper. 1t says;
The Constitutional Union Convention, which as
sembled ON the 9th ult., at Baltimore after most
harmonious Convention of two OF three days nomi-
mated John Bell Of Tennessee, for the Presidency in
1860, and Edward Everett of Massachusetts for the
Vice Presidency. The names of Bell and Everett
occupy prominent and honorable positions ON the
page Of our country's history for the last thirty
years and, forgetting whatever feelings Of the par
tisan we possess, eandor prompts us to say unhes-
tatingly, that the ticket, in opinion, is one Of
the strongest in point Of ability and intelligence
that has been presented 10 the American people BY
the opponents of Democracy since 1874. As to
what reception it will meet with before the people
will depend, we belive on the action OF the Demo
cratic Convention which assemblies at Baltimore on
the 18th Of June. II that Convention still prolongs
the disastrous and altogether unnecessary diversity
of feeling, Jealousy and division which Characterized
its action at Charleston we believe the Southern
people will become disguised with the whole affair
and indifferent to the and perpetuity Of the
Democratic party and vote for Bell If the delegates
of the Democratic party which assemblies at Balti-
more deliberately refuse TO re-endOrse those prinr
Piles upon which we have often triumphed, upon
which the country has made such rapid strides in
individual member of the party, have stood so long
We hereby declare that we will labor with all tue
zeal and energy for the of Bell and Everett
Not that we desert the Democratic party but be-
cause the leaders Of that party will desert US.
