The Democrats Of U,ics, N. Y, had
= time I" on Thursday evening over the
result of the election, and Horatio Sey-
mour, being in the city, was called out
for speech. A synopsis IL thus given
10 the Utica Herald:
His address was mostly congratula.
,oly Of the fact OF bis election. lie
thanked the electors for their verdict on
he aspersions that bad been cast upon
bis principles and loyalty. The decis-
ion OF the ballot box he regarded - q
.ufficen, Justification Of bis antecedents.
The victory had been won not alone by
the votes of Democrats, but by those Of
conservative men Of all parties. 1t was
Tue largely to the letters Of soldiers who
had written home, eotreating their
riends to support the Democracy
the victory would carry joy through
the whole nation. From this time
henceforth it would be seen there is
great Union party in the South, who
lesire to coo perate with q patty they
know to be ready to welcome them back
ntO the Union. The success Of the
Democracy would bring back the conn-
t'y 10 TIE position of Yeas ago, when
he Constitution vas supreme law, and
he laws were impa'tally administered
lIenceforth the laws were TO be obeyed,
and constitutional authority respected.
II Democracy would offer no opposi-
ion 10 the legal actions Of the Presi
dent. It was not their intention TO OBJ
-trnct any constitutional measures OF the
Administration; on the contrary, it
would lie sustained 10 every constitu>
ional demand for the proset ution of the
var. There must be no more "bigher
ave-" but only the law Of the Federal
compact. He denied tho charge that
the Democratic party we're not loyal to
the Government. They opposed tie
Government only because it failed to
fulfill the premises W tn which It as
-umed the reins Of power"
A synopsis Of the speech, given in
the Utica telegraph, is as follows:
"Hon. Hora,io Seymour was called for
with the vigor with which 1000 threats
could utter smultan sously the name OF
Seymour. The Governor soon appeared,
md though still Iaboripg from hoarse-
ness, which he apologised for in meas
are by saying that none Of his republi.
can friends were troubled that way, be
spoke about half an hour, with all his
accustomed energy. Among other
| things which the late elections have
taught, was the lesson that laws are to
be respected, the Constitution preserved
and the authorities obeyed. There mus,
be no higher law-sn. The country is
to be brought back to the principles es.
tabished by the founders Of the Govern
ncnt. The fears entertained by some,
that the Democracy were disloyal, wtr.
ground esq. We have been sneeringly
called Unionsavcrs, and other oppro
brious epnhets have been applied. No
we love the Union, and instead Of weak
cnipg and embarrass,n the Government
we intend to sustain 1t in all It's ctnsti
,utiohal acts. 1t has failed to carry GU
The promises with which it started
therefore it has been rebuked. Whei
the grand news reaches all parts Of TIT
Union, new confidence will spring up
and new hopes viii animate the people
You have saved the county our coun
,ry-and it will Dow be carried back t.
the original plan. Respect for the law
will be rcstored-the integrity of thu
Constitution be maintained. We will
re.erect the structure OF the Union upo,
the great principles our fathers estab
iished. Renewed vigor, glory and g, eat
ness will spring from the elections JUS
passed, and we will sing hosapnas owe
the rescue of onr land"
