the land, gave him power to strike the fatal
blow which none ether could have possessed.
He was believed TO be the warm friend OF
Seward, and always appeared to be 80, but pre-
tended that 1.-THE welfare of the country and
the triumph of the republican cause demanded
the sacrifice" Of ih greatest champion. Such
are the allegations Of this letter touching the
course of Horace Greeley ut Chicago.
But the question comes up, what was the
motive of this deadly biows An account of 1t
Is given In the same letter." the long boarded
revenge of disappointed Office seeker" II
appears that SO long ago as November, 1854,
Greeley had privately repudiated all further
political friendship for and alliance with Go
vernon Seward, and menaced him with his hos
tility, whenever 1t could be made most effective,
for the svowed reason that Governor S. had
never aided or advised his elevation to office,
while he had promoted the elevation Of men
known to be obnoxious to Greeley, and who
had rendered far less service to the party than
he had done" Among the men here referred to
Governor OF New York.
But the whole story is not told here, and In
justice to Mr.. Greeley We supply the omission.
When Mr.. Rust, member of Congress from
Arkansas, severely caned Mr.. Greeley In Wash
iDgton, for an article which appeared In the
tribune against him, Mr.. Seward, instead Of
taking part with his enthusiastic personal friend
and partisan, who had done 80 much to build
up his political fortunes In his journal, co.
pomed the side of his political foe, and in the
debate In the Senate spoke Of Greeley con.
temptuously and csvalierly, as ian editor Of q
newspaper"
This has never been forgotten or forgiven by
Mr. Greeley. 1t is q remarkable example of
the ipgratitude Of public men to the Journalists
who have contributed to raise them to power,
and the result at Chicago ia an equally remark.
able instance of retributive justice commend
ing to the lips of Punc faith the ingre-
dents of its own poisoned chalice. The
despised and trampled Journalist vindicates his
power, and triumphs at length over the naughty
political leader who did him go grievous q
wrong The wrongdoer, as we are told by
his own authority, regards his public life a.
deHnitvely closed" and he "will not, in any
event, or under any circumstances, be candi-
date for reelection to the Senate" Thus Is
political death the penalty Of political in
gratitude, and of the violation of private friend
ship, in the case of one of the most gifted
statesmen the country has ever produced. The
punishment is severe, but the lesson which it
conveys will serve to point moral for the in
struction of other men.

SEWARD, GREELEY AND RErRrBrrryg Jrsrrcx.--
In another column we reprint, from the organ
Of Senator Seward In this city, curious letter
dated from Auburn, written by the old smsnu.
ensis Of Seward, and evidently dictated BY the
Ex-Governor. The point Of this letter Is that
"the main work Of the Chicago Convention
was the defeat Of Governor Seward and that
the nomination Of Lincoln was mere accident
which was not essential to the programme.
In this work II is alleged that Greeley Ia
bored harder, and did tenfold more, than the
whole family of Biairs, to whom he modestly
hands over the honors Of the campaign. For
more than six months Greeley had been pre-
pairing the way for this contamination, through
the columns Of the Tribune. He attended at
Chicago several days before the meeting Of the
Convention, and he devoted every hour of the
interval to the most steady and relentless pro-
secution Of the main business which took him
ibiiber-ihe defeat OF Seward. He was sue.
cessful. His long connection with Seward

years, aud bis active and incessant propagA-
ton Of the antislsvery sentiment throughout

scme plan sfastien whereby II can be reform
cd, government should take measures to change
it, The only way to accomplish this, perhaps,
would be 10 encourage The increase Of regular

fla lsw were framed by Congress compsll
ing every American ship to take one or more
boys as apprentices, according 70 the tonnage
of each vessel, We would have al effective
body OF disciplined and experienced seamen In
very few years. Unless something of this
Kind is done we may expect to zee such
scenes as that Of Wednesday continually re-
peated in our ports. 1t is very well kaown
that, Notwithstanding the immense maritime
trade of this country, there is probably not
another nation in the world 80 poorly pro.
vided with native sailors. Whatever regular
able seamen we have are absorbed by the ma
val service, which In the first instance makes
sailors for its own use, to great extent, by
regular course Of training on board national
school ships. The merchant service il hardly
less important than the navy. and the govern
ment should not overlook its interests In this
particular.

cruisers fecm captured slavers, who are main
tanned at the public expense, aud win be re-
turned to their native country at the cost Of
the government, as some five hundred others
were short time since. This ID the way in
which the United States government disposes
Of there unfortunate negroes. But the English
government, ON the other hand, when q
British cruiser captures . SLAYER, instead of
returning the cargo Of negroes to their homes
and families, apprentices them out to the
planters of her broken down COLONIES, to
recruit them with fresh African labor; aud
this Ia the last Of the poor negroes. Mean
time, Exeter Hall resounds vita phiian-
tbropy and commisseration for the African
race. England could, at any moment put a
stop to the slave trade, by compelling Spain to
carry out her treaty stipulauons; but she will
neither do that nor maintain an efficient
squadron off the coasts of Cuba and Porto
Rico the only two markets where Africans
are landed. She keeps . few ships off the
African coast to capture slsvers, in order to
transfer the services of the negroes to her own
colonies, while we maintain vessels carrying
eighty guns there, and flying squadron
OF cruisers of the coast of Cuba, to rescue
these poor kidnapped creatures, and restore
them to their homes, at an immense expense
to the government. We ask the brawlers of
Exeter Hall to mark the contrast between the
conduct Of the two governments.
