expects to get a victory" quoth a Dem
ocrat. "He worked Early once in
the Shenandoah and got oue," quoth a
Republican.
Among the innumerable puns on the
name of the Democratic candidate,
which may be- classed as p%assable, bad
and Indifferent, is the following, embod-
led in a toast for q Democratic barbe-
cue: Here's to the old Democratic
hulk ; she needs but one sea more to
sink her."
"A correspondent commenting on
the course of the New York World, in
speaking Of Grant as I" Hiram" says /:
If St. Paul were our candidate for the
Presidency, Moses N. Marble would dub
him Saul Tnrsus, and on that ground
try to beat him with Judas Iscariot.
There is q farmer in Jones County,
Iowa-so The Andnosa Eureka afhrms-
who will vote tor Seymour and Blair,
and who supports his determination by
the declaration that 'the meanest, most
contemplate thing them fellows down
to Congress have done was to send a
lot Of bureaus to them freedmen down
South"
The Albany Journal says: 1t was
Pendleton who dictated the nominations
at New York. 1t was Pendlelon who
prescribed the terms of the platform.
1t is Pendleton who has assurance from
Governor Seymour Of hearty concur-
renee in his views, and the promise that
they shall he carried into effect II q
Democratic President 10 elected. Make
Seymour President, and Pendleton, as
Secretary of State, would be the power
behind the throne, giving character and
direction TO all the movements OF the
Executive. No wonder that the Ohio
demugogus Endorsed Governor Seymour
in very strong language.

to the Commercial I" We heard last
| night Of the Democratic nomination for
President. The result seriously disap-
pointed me. But that I am strictly pro.
hibitsd from reading newspapers, or

much to say on this subject. If had
d thousand voices to raise, and as many
votes to cast, they should all be pro-
nounced aud deposited for Grant, and
against Seymour"

many Hall when the selection Of Sey-
