of Representatives; they will control the army,
for their candidate Is the General who com
mands that army" He argued, then, that
'there can be no danger fiom an ExeoutlVe
thus shaokled and poweress." And Mr..
Seymour might have added there could
be no good or usefulness from Presi-
dent thus situated. But would there not
be danger or prolonged trouble to the country
in having an Executive in antagonism to the
other departments of the Government 1t
may be useful sometimes to have the power of
political parties distributed in the Government
so as to keep each other in check, but when
the legislature is overwhelmingly powerful,
and can override hostile Executive as has
been the case with Mr.. Johnson, deadlock is
created, the Government ia paralyzsd, and
trouble follows. We have only to look back
at tbeIunhappy results of the conflict between
Mr.. Johnson and Congress during the last three
years to form an idea of what might occur il
Mr.. Seymour were to be elected. Should we
not have the strife continued Should we not
be further from peace than ever An over
whelmiDg opposition Congress has not only
made the Executive a comparative nonentity,
but has invaded his constitutional prerogatives
and endangered the institutions of the couu-
try. Would this allpowerful party in Con-
gress take the back track if Democratic Pre-
sident were elected9 No, II would shacke
him still more, and virtually take all power
in state of agitation and disorganz alton.
Mr.. Seymour's argument that he would be
utterly powerless If elected is the strongest
that could be made against his election. What
the country really wants is a change in Con-
gress-a reduction OF the Radical representa-
tives, and a largely increased number OF De-
mocratic members. This would give healthy
check to party excess and proper balance of
power.
Seymour's speech Thursday night repeated
the above argument as applied to Blair. The
Governor stated the notion that he would be
pushed aside if elected and Blair put in his
place, and then made it clear to his audience
that with all power practically in the hands of
the Republicans Blair must be very great
man if he could do any harm, or the Republi-
cans very great fools. This is the argument
of a ticket that stands before the people on its
defence, not that of one commenting its ad-
vantages to the nation. Mr.. Seymour was
happier in his arguments against the taxation
of the Republican party, and happier still in
his onslaught on reconstruction. But ora
torical happiness will not save the cass. The
Democrats should give up the Presidential
contest as hopeless and exert themselves to
elect members to the next Congress. 1t is
their only chance of acquiring any power in
the Government If they do this they may
lay the foundation for success and long
lease of power in the future.

They are truths which should inspirt every
friend Of Grant and peace to redoubled efforts
through the next ten days to render the result
OF the contest, II possible, thoroughly aud
literally unanimous in all the States of thu
North. 1t may be too much TO hope that the
Border States Of Delaware and Maryland will
vote for Grant, but, with these exceptions, no
electoral vote north or west of the Olio river
should be cast for Seymour and a second re-
belliOn. Our present conviction Is that no
such vote will be cast, but 70 make this sure,
the Republicans Of New York, New Jersey,
and Connecticut must strive to emulate each
other to make their decision as emphatic as
the verdict rendered by Pennsylvania, Ohio,
and Indiana.
A friend who listened a few nights since to
a speech from Colonel Brown, of Kentucky,
on Staten Island, tells us that he was never
so deeply impressed with the gravity of the
consequences TO the Southern people, loyal as
well as disafFected, dependent upon this cleo
tioD, as by the plain, straightforward, and
really alarming narrative Of this gentleman
an authority OF practical experience, unques-
toned veraoity, and of brave and outspoken
oandor-of the condition of society," social as
well as political, in his own and other South
erp States, through many OF which he has
recently travelled. Colonel Brown expresses
his honest conviction that il Grant should
fail to be made President, and Seymour plac cd
in the Presidency, as the NOMINEES and orea-
ture of the Rebel element, the intestine con-
fict, not between races alone but between
the whole loyal people, including the enfran-
cbised freedmen and the unrecons!ruoted
Rebels, will at once become bloody and terri
ble, and must result in the exterminatiou of
one or the other party: for the loyalists
of both colors have made up their purpose to
protect and defend themselves to the death, if
all hope is lost to them of Government pro-
lection,

., Nothing short of the triumphant election of
General Grant will restore good ordsr to the
Southern people. BY Triumphant we mean
that the popular decision in his favor on the
Sd Of November should be SO overwhelming
as to silence all serious opposition to his ad-
ministration; all hope of future Democratic
interference with the Rebel element in the late
Confederate States and in the State of Ken
lucky. The present condition of things in
that quarter is most deplorable. 1t has been
growing from bad to worse ever since the
Fourth of July Convention, and would be-
come intolerable to every Union white man
and destructive to the civil rights of the whole
negro population in the contingency Of
Seymour's election. These are truths, on
information which no one dare question, hat
lose none of their grave Importance bs-
cause the chances of such a contingency have
been greatly lessensd by the October elections.

Seymour Speaking Against His Own Elec

From the w. r. Herald.
There was Democratic demonstration at
Buffalo Thursday night, and the Democratic can
didate argued the situation much as he did the
night before at Rochester. Governor Seymour
in his speech az Rochester made the strongest
argument against his own election to the Pre-
sidency. He said he would be powerless if
elected, for "those statute laws which to-day
shackle and hinder the action of Andrew
johnson would equally shackle a Democratic
Executive. Our Republican friends will con-
troll the Senate they will control the House

THE DEVIL AND THE LAWYERs.


The Devil came TO the earth one day,
And into the court house wended his way,
just as an attorney, with very grave face.
Was proceeding to argue the points in a case -
Now, lawyer bis Majesty never had seen,
For 10 his dominions noue ever had been;
And be felt very anxious the reason to know
Why none had been semitic the regions below.
'Twasthe faultofhs agents, bis Majesty thought,
That none ofthese lawyers had ever been caught;
And for bis own pleasure be bad a desire
To come 10 the earth and the reason inquire
Well, the lawyer who rose with rsage so grave
Made out bis opponent consumate knave;
And the Devil was really greatly amused
To hear the attorney so roundly abused.
But, soon as the speaker bad come to close,
The counsel opposing then fercely arose, 16rst
Aud be beaped such abuse upon the head of the
As made him villain Of all the men the worst.
Thus they quarreled, contended and argued so
long, wrong
Twas hard to determine which of them was
And concluding lie had heard quite enough of
the fuss,
Old Nick turned away and soliloquised thus
"If all that they said Of each other be true,
The Devil has surely been robbed of his due;
But m satisfied, now, that it's all very WE'LL
For these lawyers would ruin the morals of hell;
They've puzzled the court with their villain,
QUE cavil, Devil.
And am free to confess they have puzzled the

The Description of a True woman.

Who shall linn US for tie picture of 6
true, good woman-the pride aud the para,
gon Of her own sex, and the admiration ot
the other; of the woman, young, beautiful
healthful-well-formed but not pedantic
who can talk well, listen well, sing well, play
well, and dress well who is neither Airt moi
prude; who knows neither too much nor toe
little; whose lips are innocent of slang and
whose heart is pure from evil thought; who
is polished in manners, and affectionate in
disposition ; is beloved of the old, the darling
OF the young; shy, modest, retiring; COM
mandng all the worlds homage of anybody?
1t must not be considered that the youth.
fulness of such woman is absolutely ne>
cessary to her loveliness. Youth is a great
blessing and charm; but age is also a
blessing-do we not all wish to grow old?--
and great adornment ifit be combined with
goodness The beauty of the mind grows
with the revolving years, and makes a wo-
man Of seventy, with mind and manners and
innate gentleness, more beautiful than sweet
seventeen can be, if the mind and manners
are wanting, and the tenderness that should
be in every womanly heart is displaced by
masculine tone Of thought, behavior or
conversation.
Though all women are not such as every
man at the pootical period of life, has pic
tured in his imagination, there are thousands
in every country who resemble the ideal, if
not in the accomplishment and education
for these are not within the reach of every
one-yet-by outward grace of persons, and
inward purity of soul. All the flowers that
bloom in the fair garden of humanity, are
not for equal delicacy and bri'liancy for
nature, that has room for the magnolia, the
camclia, the rose, and the lily, has room also
for the violet, the blue-bell and the daisy,
and loves her humblot children as well as
her proudest.
Nothing in the world-at least to the male
eye-equals in peasantness the fact and
form Of bashful and yirtuous woman, look
ing up to man for support and guidance,
and giving him her affection in return.
Nothing, on the other hand, is more disa-
greeable than the bold virago, womanly in
form but not in spirit, who would storm the
citadel Of your politeness to extort your ho-
mage " ct armis, and who by every move
ment Of her features and glance of her ewes
even If she does not utter syllable, betrays
that she is pulled up with concet and sci
hshness, and is too ignorant to distinguish
between a churl and a gentleman, or to ac-
cept the place that properly belongs to her
in the social system.

KEROSENE LAMP EXPLOSIONS. - Tie
following valuable hints are from an article
in the Boston Journal of Chemistry: A
lamp may be filed with bad kerosene, or with
the vapor even, and in no possible way can
1t deionate,or explode, unless atmospheric air
has somehow got mixed with the vapor. A
lamp, therefore, full, or nearly full of the
liquid is safe and also one full of pure warm
vapor is safe. Explosions generally occur
when the lamp is first lighted, without being
filled, aud late in the evening, when the fluid
is nearly exhausted. The reason of this will
readily be seen. In using imperfect or
adulterated kerosene, the space above the
line OF oil Is always filled with vapor and so
long as 1t Is warm, and rising freely, no air
can reach it, and it is safe. At bedtime
when the family retire, the light is e1tin-
gulshedi the lamp cools, a portion of the
vaPor is condensed; this creates a partial
vacuum in the space, which is Instantly
filled with air. The mixture Is now mora
or less explosive; and when, upon the next
evening, the lamp is lighted without replen-
lshing With oil, as is often done, an explosion
IS liable to take place. Late in the evening
when the oil is nearly consumed, aud the
space above filed with Vapor, the lamp eau,
not explode so long as it remains at rest upon
the table. But take it in hand, agitate it,
carry it into a cool room, the vapor is cooled
ar passes in, and the vapor becomes ex.
Ploslve. A case Of lamp explosion came to
the writer's knowledge a few years since,
which was OccasiOned by taking lamp from
the table to answer ring Of the door bell.
The cool outside air which impinged upon
the lamp in the hands Of the lady, rapidly
condensed the vaPor, air passed in, explosion
occurred, which resulted fatally.
