EDWIN NJ. STANTON,
Secretary of War.

CeCIcIdIy vi w dls
His Excellency, Horatio Seymour.
t Let the ''trooly loip' put that in their
pipes and smoke it. If the endorsement
of Seymour's patriotism by A. Lincoln
and E NJ. Stanton has no weight with
Republicans, then they would not be-
lieve though one rose from the dead to
testify in that behalf But, let Gov. Sey-
mour's record speak for itself. In his
message to the New York Legislature in
January, 1868, occurs this passage:
awe must accept the condition of affairs
-as they stand. At this moment the for
tures of our country are influenced by the
result of battles. Our armies an the field
must be supported. All constitutional de-
promptly responded to. But, qcdr alone will
not save the Union. The rule of action
which is used to put down an ordinary in
surrection is not applicable to wide spread
armed resistance Of great communities. 1t
is wildness and folly to shut our eyes to this
truth. Under no circumstances can the diUi :
sion Of the Union be conceded. We will put
fort every exerton of power. We will hold
out every inducemeut TO the people Of the
South to return to their allegiance, consistent
with honor.
1--WE will guarantee them every right,
every consideration, demaEded by the Con-
stitution, and by that fraternal regard which
must prevail in q common country. But zee
can nerer voluntarily consent to the breaking
up Of the Union Of these States, or tie destruc-
ton Of the C0nStitution.''
Again, in a proclamation issued by
Gov. Seymour, Oct. 30, 1868, in response
to President Lincoln's call for troops, be
said:
''ln this emergency it is the duty of all
citizens to listen to the appeal put forth by
the President, and to give efficient and
cheerful aid in filling up the thinned ranks
OF our armies. 1t is due to our brethren in
the field, who have battled SO heroica!ly for
the flag Of our country, the Union of the
States, and to uphold the Constitution, that
prompt and voluntary assistance should be
sent to them in this moment of peril. They
went forth in the full confidence that they
would at all times receive from their fellow
citizens at home generous and efficient sup
port,
Every motive of pride and patriotism
should impel us to give this by voluntary
and cheerful contributions of men and mon
ey, and not by a forced conscription or
coereiye action on the part of the govern
meat."
And the people of New York, under the
leadership of their noble Governor, lived
up to and acted out these sentiments. In
fact, Governor Seymour, as the records of
the War Department show, performed
more efficient servics in the raising and
equipment of troops than any Radical

TowS GREEN During the past week
we paid hasty visit to our esteemed friend,
John Ii. Waters, Esq, at his residence
at Town Creek We had barely time to
view the solid and varied Improvements
made upon this estate by its present pro-
pr;etor but we saw enough to be able to
say that We never before witnessed so
markc,, a change in the appearance of any
place, in the short space of three years,
as in tue one referred to. The staple rrops,
including wheat, corn, hay and tobacco
are equal to my we have seen III the

EVERY THING FOR The CAUSE It ~ a
wise saying Of Jefferson, that every dit
ference Of opinion is not 4 difference OF
principle. Apparently, there is consider
able division in the democratic sentiment
Of the country in regard to financial issues.
One section of the party is for taxing gov
ernment bond, like other property, is also
for paying them off in currency at the con-
venience of the country as means OF stop
ping the accumulation of interest, and
also against paying this interest, except
where it is stipulated to the contrary, III
coin. Probably, more than three -tourths
of the party favor this solution of our fl
nancial difficulties aud we are free to say.
that we favor it ourselves Nevertheless,
we do not think that this or any other
scheme, financial or otherwise, except
whore rudimental principles arc involved,
should be insisted upon III advance as
sine ora non. Upon all questions of mere
policy, the chief solicitudo should be to
harmonic opposing interests and oPin-
ions. Give and take should be the watch
wards of the delegates to the Democratic
National Convention The democratic
bondholder should agree to make some
sacrifice for the veal Of the party. Moth
ing unjust or unreasonable, in our opln-
ion. is demanded Of him He is only ask
ed to bear fair share of the burthens of
the country and to contribute his quota
to its redemption from the grinding taxa
ton that is now sufocating 1t. That IS
all. On the other hand the non-bond
holding element in the party, the great
agricultural and mechanical interests Of
the land, should bring to the discussion
aud decision of our financial problems an
even and afTuble temper and 4 disposition
to avoid all remedies of an extreme or VI
olcut character Having secured a lat
form which re-asscrts in plain terms the
ancient doctrines Of the party and clearly
defines the powers Of the Federal govern
ment and the rights Of the States under
the Constitution. the supreme effort Of the
Convention should be, to select standard
bearer without quarrel or acerbity of tenn
per or language and enter upon the cam
paicn with out single discordant sound,
Thus initiating the contest, with the an
Gent enthusiasm Of our party aroused,
there can be no such word as fail

THE FIRST BLoop The beginning
Of the end has commenced. The first
blood of the bondholding interest has been
she'd and shed. also, in the house OF its
own friends \ proposition has Just past

nearly two to one lsvying tax OF 10 per
cent. on the interest due OH all Govern

Congress, superinduced by popular pres

the Chicago Convention. Il is chiefly re-
markable. however, as an indication Of
the channel into which the thought of the
country i. now drifting The interest on
the bond debt has been seqQcstrated to tax
