II. D.. MAXWELL, D of the leaders
Of Pennsylvania Democracy, has de-
for GRANT aud GoLFAx.
THE Mobile Register says it will go
FOR MCCLELLAN and HENDRIcKs, in
SEYMOUR and BLAIR resign.
SOME waggish fellow, since the late
elections, most appropriately calls the
"Seymourners."
SEYMOUR generally declines before
he is nominated. After nomination
be always sticks.
The report that Gov. BAKER ran
behind the State ticket to any extent,
is a mistake. His vote is a full aver
age on the whole State ticket.
1T will not do for the Democrats to
adopt the motto: :" If anybody hauls
down the Democratic flag, shoot him
on the spot" The criminals would
outnumber the executioners.
OCTOBER RAcEs.-Single heat, re-
peated in November, GRANT and
CoLFAx team, l; SEYMOUR and
BLAIR, distanced and Withdrawn.
I've can capture LEES whole army

THE True Dentocrat-the leading
Irish journal of New Jersey-has
hauled down the names Of SEYMOUR
and BLAIR, and run up the names of
GRANT and CoLFAx.
The New York World says "'a

Courier does not acquiesce with the
World in this particular. +

THE Altor Borser, a German Dem
ocratic paper. has hoisted the names
of GRANT and CoLFAx, and come out
squarely for the Republican ticket.
New York papers advertise as lost

CARPET4BAGGERs are becoming
more acceptable to Southern Demo
Gratis. A. c. ROGERS, of Illinois, has
been nominated for Congress by the
Democrats of the Second District of
Arkansas. ROGERS family still re-
side In Illinois.
THE Democratic Clubs in Memphis,
which were recently in a blaze of en-
thusiasm, have been so put out by the
recent elections, that the Club-rooms
are well-nigh deserted. The loud talk
about driving out carpet baggers and
seallawags has degenerated into timid
whispers.
THE fact that the Republicans Oh
this State in the counties bordering
on Illinois and Michigan did not in
crease their ~Qmajorities, while the
Democrats largely increased their
majorities in the counties adjacent to
Kentucky, proves conclusively which
party did the importing and fraudu-
lent voting. d
DURING the war the Democracy
were noted for their zeal in obtaining
substitutes. We apprehend their ex-
perience and skill in the business will
not avail them in their efforts to OBJ
tain substitutes for SEYMOUR and
BLAIR. 1a -
THE State Committees Of Georgia
and South Carolina have anticipated
the Northern Democrats in their ad-
vancement of the white mems Gov
ernment." They have already adopt
ed resolutions in favor of the right of
negroes to vote, as sacred to them
by the Constitution of the United
States" Bravo!

member of Tammany Club, and can

1t Is no secret in Columbus, Ohio,
that WASHINGTON MCLEAN and G. L.

Cincinnati to the Democratic State
Central Committee, urging that the
influence Of the Committee be exert
