TIE SEYMOUR KNIGHTS were never more buoy
ant and high spirited than at this time. If the
Republicsss have lkened them to the knight of
the Sorrowful Countenance, IL IL because they
bear 10 their expression of face the stern deter.
mination to charge and vanqush the ridiculous
black and tan party at the next election. The
Seymour Knights are, one and all. chivalrous and
patriotic gentlemen. They have not the smirk of
Shannon. nor the downcsst look of Conway or
Shelley. Ihey feel the importance OF the TASK
before them, and though they may be serious in
consequence, their hearts are as bold and their
nerves as steady 90 1t is possible for the hearts
and nerves OF men to be who are struggling for
the rights of freemen and good citizens. Let
those who doubt it tell them 30.
