DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR
PRESIDENT,

welll The National Democratic
Convention has at last delivered itself
of a candidate for President, after Eve
days of labor and travail. Horatio
Seymour is the gentleman nominated
for Presidential honors, as the choice Of
the Convention, and as the opponent Of
General Grant. Mr.. Seymour was nom-
mated on tho ed ballot, and is perhaps
as good u candidate as could have been
nominated by that party. Mr.. Belmont,
the great %fnancier, was a strong per-
sonal friend of Mr.. Seymour-and al
though Mr.. Pendleton is really the true
representative Of the modern Democra.
cy, the result Of the Convention shows
that finance t%riumphed over principle
and that Wall street d" ruled the roost."
TIf we hear who the nominee for Vice
President is before We 60 to press, we
shall make due announcement.

A C~IerSymun,s Tat In Church on Assem-
alon OaY-A Indy in q P~redIcnment,

A rathor laughable incident occurred
in q certain church in this city, says
the Buffalo Courier, yesterday morning,
the particular location Of which or its
name we suppress out Of pity for the
feelings of a certain young lady, who
was forced to take q prominent part in
the affair. The congregation having
assembled for Ascension services, the
organist took her seat and commenced
to play, when suddenly the audience
was startled by unearthly yells from the
vicinity of tho organ, and evidently en-
anatiug from the lungs Of o Mr.. Tho
mas Cat. The young lady ut the organ,
rs may be expected, was also somewhat
surprised at the accompaniment TO the
organ music, but Mt once realized the
fact That some i%rreligious cat had, con-
trary to oil known precedent, taken pos
session of the inside of the organ.
After tho first outbreak Of passion from
Mr.. Cat, his outcries were not sufficient
ly loud to be heard, excepting by par
ties who were sitting near the organ,
and the musical part was got through
with, when the minister commenced
his sermon. While the sermon was in
progress, the choir, led by their
brave ~organist, attempted to relieve his
catship, but they were unable to do so.
They were in q quandary ; they knew it
would soon be necessary to again use
the organ, nndthey wished to avoid the
former accompaniment. At last, the
moment of action arrived, and the Or
ganist applied her fingers to the keys,
and the worshippers werc again startled
by the yells of that contrary Thomas
Cat. The mortified young lady could
not, however, cease hor playing, and
she determined upon a coup detat,
which was to drown, If possible, the
cats music with music from the organ,
and with this object in view, she began
to finger the keys in earnest, and with q
will. Fortunately at this point his cat
ship fell from the organ to the floor in
m insensible condition, and after lying
there a short time, jumped up and ran
off. The irreligious animal proved to
be the minister's cat which had followed
him to church the previous evening, and
had wandered into the organ. The in
cident will no doubt furnish the choir
Of that church with many o hearty
laugh in the future.
