Horatlo Seymour at Home.

The Utica Obseruer-published at Gov.
Seymour's home-in announcing the defeat
of the standard bearer of the democracy
says:
Among the wreck and ruin of that de-
feat which the cause OF constitutional lib
erty has sustsined, one man stands forth,
the very idol, now, of the conservative
masses one man around whom two million
men rally. That man is Horatio Sey
mour.
1.-The nomination was forced upon him
against his own desires by the convention
of July. But once installed the standard
bearer Of his party, he discharged the du-
ties of his high trust with fidelity, faith,
fulness and an earnest, honest activity
v hich have doubly endeared him to every
democrat in the land.
Seymour was our strongest possible
candidate. His large ability, his unswerv'
ing integrity, his stedfast faith in the sta.
bility of our institutions, the irreproachablc
record of his public and private lie, auC
his unbroken fealty to democracy rendered
him the tttest representative OF our polltica
faith.
Here in his own home, where every
uccu VI HIS WuOic career udC Utcu IuOSt
closely scanned, governor Seymour's ma
jorlty was the largest ever cast tor nation
al candidate.
The qualities which make the trul,
great man never need the glamour of sue
cess to render their sterling worth apparent
Tried in the fires of adversely, the dros
and tinssl which glitter in the sunshine o
success are utterly consumed, but the tru,
metal comes forth purified and twice valua
bic from contract with the white heat.
TO day, Horatio Seymour appears
greater man than ever before. Those wht
once admired him, now love him. Hi
anne Is enshrincd in the heart of two mill
oDs of his country men, and in all th
changes that coming years may bring, il
all the sorrows that befall or the Danger
that encompass our land, the democratic
party will be proud to boast that in tn
great Campaign Of 1868 it offered to th
country the solid craftsmanship and rip,
wisdom of Horatio Seymour of Ne,
York.
70 all which the democracy of the wes
respond with hearty amen.

the presence of large concourse of specta-

troit, where she is to receive her boiler and
machinery. 1t was the intention of Mr..
RAND to have the new boat return here to
receive her upper works, but the lateness
of the season will probably necessitate her
remaining in Detroit during the winter, and
she nib be finished off there.

FRANCES HARRIET, wife of WILLIAM H.
GLOVER, aged 50 years.
The announcement of the decease of the
late Mrs. GLOVER will cast shadow of
profound griet over our entire community,
where she was universally beloved and re-
spected. ~
Mrs. FRANCES HARRIET GLOVER was
born in Norwich, Conn.,, January Is, 1877,
and was SO years of age, nearly, at the time
of her decease. She removed to Kcnosha,
in this State, in the fall of 1854, residing
there few months. In 1856 she came to
Manitowoc, where she lived until summon
ed away by death.
Although afflicted for many years with a
most painful and Unsuitable disease, she,
throughout the entire period of her prolonged
sufferings, displayed the most remarkable
Christian fortitude. Such resignation to
the will of God, such uncomplaining pa
tience, such lovely and genial disposition,
is rarely, if ever, equalled.. Her entire life
was spent in promoting the welfare of 9th
ers, according to her ability, and her loss
in social circles, and at the church of which
she was devout and consistent member
especially, will be felt
She was most afectionate and devoted
wife, and to him, the chief mourrer, heI

of this entire community is proGered. in hi.
