SEYMOUR'S MESSAGE.

We hope no one will fail to read the
extracts from Gov. SEYMouR's Message
upon our first page. We regret that we
cannot publish it entire. 1t is noble
production. We trust measures will be
taken to have it published in pamphlet
form and scattered all over our land Its
perusal strengthens us in the belief that
there is spirit of patriotism left; an
attachment for our old institutions that
will yet arrest the mad career of blind
fanatics, and save our country from utter
ruin. Let it be carefully read pare
it with the messages of the President and
the speeches of the leading radicals, and
then settle in your own mind the question
as to what policy is best calculated to put
81 end to the awful scenes that are being
enacted in our country. Do you desire
that these things should cease, and that
there shall be a return of the prosperity
Of oldeu times? Then make up your mind
deliberately as to the course most likely,o
brine about this result and act accordingly

II will be remembered that at the spe.
cial session Of Congress last summer the
stupeudous frauds Of Government cuntrac.
tors were so notorious, and excited such
general Indignation, as to force the pas.
sage Of bill guarding the Treasury
against these depletions. But no sooner
had this soothing emoient had the effect
of quie,ing the clamorous public than
another bill was proposed and rapidly
passed, suspending the operation Of the
former one until the lst of January, 1868.
This Limitation expired. 1t now appears
that the sharks are still unsatiated, and
that another year for public plumber is
demanded Mr.. Wilson has introduced
bill for an additional suspension of twelve
months. 1t viii! soon be seen whether the
Republican Congress dare renew tie
license for plund ering the Treasury.

DA KOTA.

A greater calamity could scarce have
befallen the Territory than the one result.
ing from the contested Delegate question.
Every movement made by either confess
tant to establish his Claim is thrust At
the Territory. Each is striving with oil
his power to establish the fact that Of the
small number Of votes cast large pro.
portion were manufactured for the occa-
sion. Each is laboring in his own way to
establish the fact that the Territory hard
ly contains enough legal citizens to jussi-
fy the keeping up Territorial organiza.
ton. More than this, each is laboring to
prove that fraud and lawlessness exist TO
such an extent % to make it anything but
a country in which an honest settler wo'd
seek home. We would not charge that
either has unfriendly feelings toward the
Territory, but that in their efforts to pro-
mote their own agrandizement they lose
sight of the legitimate results Of their
contest upon the country. 1t is peculiarly
unfortunate that this contest occurs at a
time when the united efforts Of all parties
are needed to procure that protection
without which the whole country is in
danger of being deserted. We are assured
that the farmers of Dakota will hardly
attempt to raise crop r'ext season except
in the immediate vicinity of towns, unless
they have some assurance of protection
from the Indians; and instead of making
a combined eff,rt to accomplish an end so
much needed, those who represent the
Territory, and upon whose aid the people
are so greatly dependant, devote their
time to the work Of destroying each others
influence, and thus make the Territory an
unwilling victim. Better by far would it
be had the Territory no Delegate in Com
gross, as in that case other means would
be sought to have justice done or that
both contestants had their ambition graft
fed by appointment to the hes: positions
at the disposal Of the President, tLan Da,
kota should thus be made to suffer.

owing perhaps TO his recent conversion to
this new theory Of war, does not seem
quite 50 sanguine of its invincbility. The
old National Mtelltgencer, one OF the old.
est and most reliable papers in America
contains the following:

Fentriss county, describes the country
in that long oppressed section of the
State as vast dessolatiou. an many

are going to ruin, and the fields are ly-
ing idle and uncultivated. There are
scarcely any men to be seen, and the
few that are met with are very old, deaf

fed for service in the rebel army"
They occasionally meet with Union
families, who greet them most cordially.
Passing an old log house on a fine
farm one day, he says: ian old lady
about six feet high, and slim as a sap

"Hurrah for the Union" On being
asked if she was really Union, she re-
Piled "Yes, am. 1 have husband

pie here, they are Union. No Butter

years ago the brother and son had a
Union flag, and carried it with him in
the first fight in Kentucky, and return

The girls hid the flag, and it remained
hid until yesterday morning, when they
came out with it to meet us"
The Union sentiment is very strong il

being loyal, but most of the men are
absent, conscripted into the rebel army
