WILLIAM H. SEwARD.-If the friends OF i'm
partial Justice as the only safe basis Of recon-
struction have been anxious lest the detection
of Seward from the Republican party should
exert wide and disastrous influence among his
former supporters, the following extract OF a let
ter to the New York Tribune, from gentleman
in Auburn, may serve to reassure them - II
any changes among the great Union party might
be expected is this State, through the unaccount-
able course of Seward, they might certalnly be
looked for among his neighbors and lifelong
friends at his home in old Cayuga. But we can
say with an absolute assurance of truth, that II
the changes are Of a similar character in other
portions of the State, the great Republican IN
ion party will carry the election by 80 900 major
ity, and then we will employ with Seward swish,
expressed at Niagara Falls, by counting him out.
Stewards friends in this county lament his course
with unfeigned sorrow, and are bowed in the
deepest modification, but not q soul of them
proposes to follow his lead by deserving the par
ty lie did Sd much to upbuild, and the principles
he labored so long to inculcate. The acorn
he planted has become the towering tree, its
wide spreading branches and deep piercing roots
defving all storms and adverse winds. The work
of his lifetime, to which he devoted the vigor Of
his early manhood and the mature judgment Of
his riper days, cannot be overcome and annihi-
lated by the apostacy of old age.

In a recent speech at Gloucester, Mass, in which

startling truths :--'' Are you ready to say that
these men shall sit in Congress, make laws for

be paid go unpaid, whether bounties shall be
paid to your soldiers, pensions to your widows
or whether the flag Of the United States shall be

THE GREAT MlsrERY.-The body is to die
No one who has passed the charmed boundary
comes back to tell. The imagination visits the
realms of shadow-sent ont from some window
in the soul over life 5 troubled waters, bat
brings its way wearily back, olive leaf in its
beak as token of emerging life, beyond the
closely bending horizon. The great sun comes
and goes in the heaven, yet breathes no secret OF
the ethereal wilderness. The crescent meon
cleaves her nightly passage across the upper
deep. but losses overheard no signals. The
sentinel stars challenge each other as they go
their nightly rounds, but We catch no syllable
of their countersign, which gives passage to
the heavenly camp. Between this and the other
life there is a great gulf fixed, across which nei-
ther eve nor foot can travel. The friend whose
eyes closed in their last sleep, long years ago
died with rapture in her wonder-streken eyes, a
smile of inetlable JOY upon her lips, and hands
folded over triumphant heart, but her lips
were past speech and impaired nothing of the
vision that CENTRALIZED her.-Dr. HoVana

Buchanan against Fremont which he regrets
General sheridan is an out-and-out Republican :
