States, and choose the seven electors to
which we are entitled in the national col
lege. There are some strong reasons in
favor of taking this course. The present
Legislature represents just about the rela-
tive numerical strength of the two parties
in the State. The expense of making a full
ard fair registration before November
would be very large. The expressed de-
termination of bad men in Louisiana to in
timidate the colored voters of the State
might, in the event of an cleo
ton by the people in November,
produce scenes Of violence which the sober
citizens of both parties would profoundly
regret. And even if there should be no
actual disturbance the loss of labor by
registration and voting, which the Demo
cratic press has always lamented aud de-
clared would be immense in the fall of the
year, supplies another argument for the
simpler method of choice.
These considerations are worthy Of re
Election, and we doubt not the Legislature
will give them careful examination.

THE POLICE BOARD.

Our Camp street contemporaries are so
accustomed to a reckless disregard of per-
soDal and public rights, and the law, in
promoting their partisan and party inter-
ests that they are quite incapable Of under
standing or approaching a Just and patri-
otto course of action or more honorable
motives.
The New Orleans Times Of yesterday
evening says;
1t is currently rumored among the pres
ent members OF the force that August first
has been decided on for the grand police
coup detdt, when all the present incumbents
Will be decapitated at a single blow, and
their places filled by the corps TAfrique
lately organized.
The police law provides that no member
Of the police force shall be dismissed with
out fair trial and for sufficient cause.
and the Board of Police Commissioners has
acted and will continue to act in strict
accordance with the law Even the child
ish and contemplate threatenings of the
rebel press will not lead them to depart
from this course.
By the way, is it not about time that the
New Orleans Times understood that its
incendiary articles and terrible threats are
disgusting all of our intelligent and re-
spectacle citizens? We are not aware
that our cotemporary has ever been sub
lime, hut it is certainly rapidly becoming
ridiculous.

The following is an extract from the
speech of Daniel S. Dickinson, delivered
at the Cooper Institute, October s, 1862
Mr.. Dickinson knew Horatio Seymour,
and he spoke his mind freely in regard to
him:
When the most 'atrocious conspiracy
which ever deseGrated earth found devel-
Opment in an assault upon our national
flag at Sumter, and in efforts to massacre
a halfstarved garrison placed there in a
time Of profound peace according to uni
form usage, for no other otfense than as.
serting the supremacy Of their country S
constitution, and giving to the breeze, as
enblematical thereof, the glorious Stars
and Stripes Of their fatbers-when the
brave volunteers who were hurrying to
the defense Of our nations capital to save
it from mob rule, and rebellion, and con-
tiagration, were bleeding by traitorols
hands-when strong men trembled. when
women wept and children instinctively
chung closer to the maternal bosom-when
all communication between the lo7al
States and the capital was cut off by rebel
lious forces-when the President elect of
the United States had then recently reached
the seat Of government, where duty called
him, by circuitous and unusual route, and
in disguise, 10 escape the dagger of the
assassin, and when our land was filled with
excitementIan CONSERVATION and alarm
when "shrieked the timid and stood still the
brave and the conGding masses looked
about to see who were the men for the
crisis, among the citizens of the Empire
State who had borne a part in public af-
fairs, and were naturally looked up to as
examplars in such a crisis, he (Horatio
SEYMOUR HE'D himself away upon the
double-quick in the opposite direction, and
for nearly half year hid himself among
the lakes and rivers and romantic wood
lands and inland towns of Wisconsin; and
his tongue was as silent on the subject of
denouncing the rebellion as those of the
murdered volunteers, whose t. ghosts
walked unreVenged among u.s." There we
may suppose he basked and balanced,
and watched and waited and turned and
twisted until autumn when a small lot of
defunet, defeated, desperate, and despicable
politicians, who had for years hung upon
the subsistence department of the Deme-
cratic party of this State, came to his relief
by entering the field.

A Question Of Etiauette.

A prominent ex-city official, whose &c.
centricities of character and official CON
duct have in former times been the subject
OF varying comment, last evening took 70
the congenial task of correcting his wife
for breach OF etiquette at table, and the
consequence was domestic row and the
interference of the police. 1t seems the
lady inadvertently helped herself to butter
with her Own knife whereWith the pre-
else and faultless husband remarked that
snch an act in him would be deemed uu-
gentlemanly, and in his wife was unlady-
like. The offending lady recognized the
truth OF the criticism, and attempted to
make an apology for her thoughtlessness:
whereupOn the husband Jumped up from
the table and made rush for her. The
wife, having had some former experiences
OF not very agreeable nature, left the
table also and locked herself up in her
room. The husband demanded admission;
this was refused. The "modelD husband
now went in quest Of an axe, and finding
one, threatened to beat in the door unless
he was admitted to the lady's presence.
She screamed, called for the police-who
came, but being unable to enter the front
door of the house, were admitted finally at
the rear, and by their presence put an end
to the Troy Tines

We hear many excellent persons declare
that they do not like the Democratic nom
inee for the Presidency because he has no
war record, We do not like him because
be has Horatio Seymour earned fame
during the war which, while it causes the
late defenders Of the "Stars and Bars to
loss up their hats and rend their lungs in
his honor, should make every loyal heart
throb with indignation at the simple recol-
lection,
From polite motives, of course. Southern
Democrats for the time being conceal the
real cause of their enthusiasm over the
nomination of Seymour. They hide the
fact that while in armed rebellion against
the government they regarded him as one
Of their stanchest Northern allies, and
that in laboring to make him President
they but display proper degree of graft
tude for past services. They go further,
and attempt to show that he was OF great
service to the Union cause; they endeavor
10 wrest nobly-earned laurels from the
brows of gallant soldiers in order to deck
him, and thus deceive the unwary. Their
papers publish few meaningless "certid-
Gates Of character" and extract glittering
generalities from old speeches, in order to
strengthen this deceit.
Buff no other evidence could be adduc-
ed to strip him of this unmerited fame,
his speech to the rioters and orphan asylum
ineendiaries, made on the fourteenth of
July, 1868, just five years ago, would damn
him for all time ia the esteem of every
true and patriotic American citizen.
Reduced to the severest straits, the gov
eminent had appealed to the Executives of
the loyal States for an addition to the eff
fectiVe strength of our armies; and the draft
which was ordered to secure this all-neees-
sary aid was resisted in New York by
mob. Or to put the case perhaps more
correctly, this draft was made the pretext
for an outbreak intended to distract the
national authorities from their giant task of
suppressing the rebellion. While the blood
thirsty miscreants were engaged in burning
colored orphan asylums, and hanging help
less black men to street lamp posts, their
sympathetic friend,n Governor Horatio
Seymour, appeared among them, and gave
inference to the following never-to-be-
forgotten language. Nota word Of pity for

The Providence Journal says at will
be one of the mysteries of history If, after
all that has happened, this nation deliber-
ately disowns Grant and adopts Seymour
as the representative of its opinion and the
leader Of its policy. Where would be the
glory Of Appomattox Courthouse? Did
Lee and rebellion surrender there to Ho-
ratio Seymour and his principles? Would
there have been any surrender, would there
not be Cenfederacy still, or O bargain
which would be worse than its continued
existence il in 1854 this people had followed
the lead Of Horatio Seymour When this
nation repents Of the war, and is ashamed
OF its glOries, and wishes to turn back its
legitimate results-when it wishes to re-
open civil feuds andIrestore breath of life
to rebels and encourage revolution, it will
give its highest Offices to Horatio Seymour
and Frank Blair.n
An exchange says; ''Mr. Howell Cobb,
to whose extraordinary energy and noble
patriotism the country is indebted for an
empty treasury at the breaking out of the
war, has Endorsed the Democratic nomina-
tons. In the course of the speech he made
it appears that he scared with the fires of
his indignation General Grant and tbe
Chicago platform. Il must be a fearful
thing to fall into the hands of runaway
thief. Cobb don't like it because he can't
vote. It's the fate of fellows of his kidney
in most of the States, though they first gen.
orally lead secluded life a few years in
one of those buildings where the under
pinning runs up to the eaves."
