Speech or r-Govern0,. Seymour.

The Hon. Horatio Seymour, Ex-Governor
of New York, on being chosen permanent
president of the Democratic National Con-
vention, proceeded to the platform amid
great cheering, long continued, and spoke
as follows:
Gentlemen of the Convention: l thank
you for the honor you have done me in
making me your presiding officer
Cheers.] This convention is made up of a
large number of delegates from all parts of
our broad land. To great degree we are
strangers to each other, and view the sub
jects which agitate our country from differ
ent stand-points We cannot at once learn
each others mode of thought, or grasp all
the facts which bear upon the minds of
others; yet our session must be brief, and
we are forced to act without delay upon
questions of an exciting character, and of
deep import to our country. To maintain
order to restrain all exhibition of pas
sion to drive out of our minds all unkind
suspicious, is at this time great duty
Cheers. rely upon your sense of this
duty and not upon my own ability to sus-
tain me in the station in which am placed
by your kind partiality. Men never met
under greater responsibilities than those
which now weigh upon US. Applause. /
1t is not mere party triumph we SEEK
We are trying to save our country from the
dangers which overhang it. We wish to
lift off the perplexities and the shackles
which in the shape of bad laws and crush
ing taxation now paralyze the business and
labor of our land. Loud cheers We
hope, too, that VIC can give order, prosper
ity and happiness to those sections of our
country which suffer so deeply to-day in
their homes and in the fields of their indus
try from the unhappy events of the last
eight years. trust actions will show that
we are governed by earnest purposes to
help all classes ofour citizens Avoiding
harsh invective against men, we should
keep the public mind fixed upon the ques-
tions which must now be met and solved.
Cheers Let us leave the past to the calm
Judgment Of future, and confront the perils
of the day. GCheers.]
We are forced to meet the assertions in
he resolutions put forth by the late repub-
lican convention. ! aver there is not in
this body one man who has it in his heart
to excite so much of an angry feeling
against the republican party as must be
stirred up in the minds of those who read
these declarations in the light of recent
events, and in view of the condition of our
country. ! In the first place, they congratu-
late the perplexed man of business, the bur
dened taxpayer, the laborer, whose hours
of toll are heightened out by the growing
costs of the necessaries of life, upon tn,

has brought all these trials upon them by
the cost Of its military despotism and tn.
corruption of its bureau agencies.

of the nation the laws which invite the cit Z

Buried .aisye and SHOT as a GHOST.


The Cleveland (O) Plaiadealers learns,
through private letter, the details of an
extraordinary occurrence that recently took
place in o town of Southern Ohio, and tells
the story as follows: ''''- % -
An old man, named .Delos Winans be-
came frantically angry with his son because
he had lost large sum of his fathers money
on a bet. His frenzied feelings finally. got
the better of him, and he felled his r son to
the floor with blow of his fist, and in1me-
diately thereafter fell down himself in a
senseless condition. Great excitement in
the family ensued. The mother ran scream
ing for assistance, which was soon forth
coming in the persons of several OF the
neighbors. Mr.. w, was found in ar ppar7
emily lfeless condition, with blood flowing
from his mouth and nose. A subsequent,
examination by physician led to the an
nouncement by him that Mr.. w. had died
from, the bursting ofa blood vessel. So evil
IDENTIFY had the vital spark fled, that no eff
forts at resuscitation were made, and the re-
mains" were prepared for burial as prompt
ly as possible. Thefuneral ofthe ''deceascd"a
took place the following Wednesday. Mr..
WIS body had only been coffined the pre-
vious day--up to which time it had laid
draped in its shroud, in the parlor. - 5f-
Notwithstanding the wonderful 1ite-like
look of the skin, and the color In the face,
it occurred to no one to suggest a postpone
ment of the burial till death was absolutely
certain. The funeral was largely attended,
and everybody remarked the life-like look
of the deceased. The remains" were tenn
porariy placed In one of the vaults of the
cemetery, owing to the fact that a brick
tomb, commenced for their reception, had
not been completed. a5 l-ll NJ hla ssTf g
At ten O'Clock on Thursday night, the
village was thrown into great excitement
by the report that ghost had been seen in
the cemetery short time before, and that
an old lady who had first seen it had been
frightened into fit, from which it seemed
doubtful whethershew would recover. Think
ing that probably the ghost was personated
by some scoundrel who had played trick
several times before, o number of persons
armed themselves with shot guns, proceed
ed to the cemetery, and commenced eau
itious inspection--their hearts keeping up
an anxious humping in their bosoms, in
spite Of their assumed bravado. or tig4
They had not long to wait, for there fit
ting among the tombs, was white object,
plainly to be seen. With trembling hands
the guns were raised and fired, when
strange fact for a ghost they saw the white
creature fall between couple of graves
Picking up courage, they cautiously APP
preached the object and turned a dark
lantern upon it, Their feelings can better
be imagined then described, when they
found that the ghost was the lately deceased

A NOTABLE CoUpLE.-Daniel Lake
and his wife, Susan, of Bridgewater, are
a notable couple. Nearly IS years old,
they are dwelling in the 63d year of their
welded life in the home they made in
the first years there of A cross word
never passed between them. In his prime,
Mr.. Lake had strength, and at so years
old, mowedsan acre of grass with scythe
In Sc minutes, the quickest time ever
made l- t
We have seen the above or its SUBJ
stance in several of our exchanges of late,
and it is probably sufficiently correct for
all practical purposes, though we think
the parties named have lived most of
their welded life in South Woodstock.
In addition to having made the quickest
time with the scythe he has also been an
expert swimmer, and later than his 5Oth
year, or more than quarter Of CEN
fury ago, we remember to have been with
him on several fishing excursions when
1t was customary to use seines, and on
one OF these occasions we saw him swim
In deep water when it did not seem that
he kicked or padded oftener than once
in five minutes! And yet he kept full
head and shoulders out of water, in which
he would keep his body at an angle OF
forty-tive degrees. But we have heard a
story of him more romantic than any OF
the above. just previous to marriage
with Mrs. Lake he was engaged to an
| other lady and Mrs. Lake to another
gentlemen. 1t was proposed among the
parties to swap girls OF engagements,
to which tile four agreed and consented
to their mutual satisfaction: and thus
was formed an alliance which proved SC
happy on the the part of Mr.. and Mrs.
Lake, and for aught we ever heard equal
ly so for the other couple !-Ec,
We know Uncle Daniel and Aunt SUI
san well, and know the above to be sub
stantially correct, and more, too; we have
been the recipients of their bounteous
hospitality at their former residence in
South Woodstock, VT. In his seth year,
or later, he made $500 pounds of Maple
Sugar, the largest amount made in the
state at that time, by any man, from one
sugar orchard.
Being Jack of all trades" he made
his own sap tubs, sugar tubs and store
tubs, and that too, little quicker and
nicer than any other man Lying.

kept perfectly still while Mr.. Bingham

The galleries were closely packed, and
hundreds of people stood in the halls and

the inside proceedings All the managers
stood up when the articles were being
read, except Thaddeus Stevens, who re-
manned In his chair, looking weak but
exceedingly pleased at the scene.
Every Senator wassin his seat and pre-
served strict silence while the articles were
read. It was especially noticeable that
none of the Democratic members went
with the Republicans to the Senate
Chamber. Speaker Colfax occupied a
seat by the side of Vice President Wade.
At the conclusion the reading of the
articles, which occupied thirty minutes,
Vice President Wade then said: 5a@ I,
