THE oft-repeated assertions of promi-
nent journals that the administration
does not favor tine Democratic nomina-
ton, are unfouuded There is no ques-
ton about the matter. The President
and four members of his Cabinet
MoCulloch, Randall, Browning and
Welies-are out-spoken in favor of the
election of Seymour aud Blair. Mr.
Seymour is advised of their support. One
who has conversed with Mr. Seward on
the subject defines the latter's position
thus: he wants Grant and CoIfax defeat
ed but does not want Seymour and Blair
to doit.

that more than fee months have elapsed

OF frankfort, have never yet seen copy
OF the acts Of the Legislature. save a
pamphlet copy sent to some of the Off

or fifteen mouths after the time they
should be distributed. We have not
complained, however, to the world that
the officers at Frankfort are ''derelict,p

decided yesterday that the shares of
National Banks are taxable, the
same as other monied corporations.
This is a step in tho right direction,

true Democratic doctrine, tor ad-
vancing and defending which We
have been 80 vehemently denounc-
