In October, 1861, in a speech delivered
in Mechanics Hall, Utica, Gov. Seymour
said:
If il is true that slavery must be abol-
ished To save the Uuion, then the people
Of the South should be allowed 70 with
draw themselves from this Government
This Governor Seymour of New York
is the Magnus Apollo Of the Conservatives
Seymour is an Artful Dodger. He is a
shutting two.faced politician. Seeing
that the war feeling of the nation is in
the ascendant he processes to-day TO be
a war man, but when his cousin, Thos.
II. Seymour of Connecticut, an ayowed
Armistice and Peace candidate foe Gov
ernor, was running in Connecticut he
wrote as follows to a meeting of the cop
perheads at Stanford, last March:
81 sincerely regret cannot go. / feel
an intense interest in the result Of the
election in Connecticut | have known
Thos. II. Seymour from his youth up, and
| know that more pure, patriotic, and
honest man does not live. | wish could
take part in the contest in Connecticut"
SO wrote Governor Horatio Seymour
Of peace At. any price candidate. He
has all along been the associate OF the
men of whom Lord Lyons, the British
Minister, wrote home as follows:

New YORK, May 26. A Washington dispatch
to the Post says some 600 officers and privates
arrived at Annapolis yesterday from Richmond.
They report Capt Mckee of the l4th Kentucky
cavalry, and Lieut.. Coner of the LIST Virginia
cavalry, will be hung by the rebels in retaliation
Tor the execution of two spies by Gen. Burn
side. This is known to be trustworthy.
Holburn, the correspondent of the New York
W0rld, was released on the condition that he
should make certain representations to our gov
eminent regarding the measures of retaliation
about to be adopted by the rebels.
The lrbune,s correspondents, Richardson and
Brown, are retained in the Libby Prison.
1t is pretty certain that the enrolment act
will be carried out according to the letter of the
law. Prominent gentlemen from New York
have made representations to the President and
War Department that anything like an attempt
to evade plain provision of the act would have
a damaging effect upon the people.

The Tropic Burnt.

The Philadelphia Inquirer contains an
account of the burning OF the Confeder-
ate Steamer Tropic. Her cargo consisted
of three hundred and twenty-three bales
of Upland cotton, three bales Of Sea
Island, and three barrels of turpentine,
with six barrels of rosin. One boat con-
tanning 16 persons was picked up by the
Yankee Steamer, Quaker City. Among
the passengers saved were j. M. Vernon,
of London, and Thos. Steers, well known
in this county as Contractor on the
Central Railroad. He was large own
er OF stock in the Tropic, being the own
er of Is shares. We understand that
Mr.. Saml. Brown of this place is also an
owner OF stock in the same vessel. The
The Inquirer's account says that s.iust
before reaching the ship, J. M. Vernon
was seen to throw overheard a quantity
of "yellow covered documents" A boat
was Immediately lowered, which sue
ceeded in securing them. They proved
to be contracts entered into by the Sec
rotary of War, Secretary of the Navy
and Postmaster General, with the said
Vernon, for furnishing the so-called
Confederate Government with stores,
accoutrements &c. Said Vernon was
very indignant, threatening to report
the matter to Lord Lyons, admitting at
the same time, that he was an agent of
the Confederate Government.
