AS the canvass goes on, the deep seated hos
tility of Il large portion of the Democracy
toward their own candidate becomes too bitter
for concealmcnt aud outcries against the
treachery or the weakness of Horato Seymour

dirty waters of the Tammany Convention
which Col Brown so effectively stirred up short
time ago, have been still further agitated by
several writers In the Western Democratic
Journals one of whom said 10 be Mr. Henry

The Union Republican Campaign Club, III
card herewith published, call for volunteers
who will pledge themselves to give, without
compensation, the two days of Registry and the
day of Election wholly to the work OF keeping
the names of men who are not legal voters of
the regstries and their votes ont of the ballot
boxes.
This is but one Of many efforts that will be
made to defeat tho mOnstrous frauds habit
ually perpetrated in our City; but this is a
good one, and should be heartily seconded.
Let all who will give the three days as pro-
posed, and none others, send their names as

Tho Cable surprised us yesterday with a sum-
mary of the opinions of the Paris journal, La
Presse, upon 81 the demand that United States
war vessels shall pass the Dardanelles," from
which one might be led TO believe that Admiral
Farragut had beer threatening the Sublime
Porte, and purpOsed visiting COnstantnope in
the same manner he once went up to New
Orleans The Dardanelles, or the four forts
defending the entrance from the Archipelago
to the Sea of MarmOra, are reckoDed the keys
of the Turkish capital and the Sultan has
always claimed the right of fOrbidding foreign
war-vessels to pass them. The right has
often been challenged, especially by the
United States, but it was recognized by
the principal European powers, in 1S4l,
and reailirmed by the Treaty Of Paris, i'll
1856. Ten years ago, however, the U. S.
frigate Wabash persisted in disregarding
this prohibition and visiting Constantinople,
her commander holding that We were not
bound 10y the Treaty of Paris as we were not
parties TO it. The Turkish Government with
out admitting our right in the matter, received
the Wabash Hospitality, and no complications
therefore ensued. In the present case, we are
at loss to understand the comments of La
Presse, for Admiral Farragut received an ex-
press invitation from the Sultan, three weeks
ago. to bring his squadron through the Darda-
neles. 1t is rather funny, therefore, to be told
by La PreSSe that our demand was probably
inspired by Russia, and that the Sublime Porte,
encouraged by England and France. will
