Grants election. There are good reasons
for believing that Seward is Grant man,

Grant. The most sincere johnson man in
the Cabinet is McClillcch. He sticks

A. DEMoeRATlc OPINION OF THE

greatly distressed the friends and
allies Of the Democracy during his
riding exercises through the Shenan-

assn manifested on his journey.

receiving ovations at every. step Of his

SeQuel 10 the Late burglary.
In our notice OF the gun-shop burglary
last week, we mentioned that suspicious
pointed strongly to young man who had
previously been proving about town, but
suddenly disappeared the next day. A
description of the party thus suspected
was furnished the Chicago police, and the
young manwas arrested shortly after leav-
ing gun-shop, where he had disposed Of
one of the missing guns. Information WIS
at once telegraphed TO the place, and an
officer proceeded to Chicago and took the
scamp in charge, bringing him here on the
Friday evening train. He gave the name
of Emerson Seymour, and says hts parents
are residents Of Laporte.

placed about his neck, and he was clevtf

The story about q fire being placed under
his feet, on which Chicago papers have
based long moral essays, is without the
least foundation. The next morning Scy-

and, pleading guilty to the charge Of bur-
ghry, was committed to tho county jail TO

fHe DcincCtdtlC party are entering
ap9a the Presidential campaign with
the ennobling cry of /" Down with
she Niger" and if General Hancock
will contrive TO subject the Union
men of every complexion in Louisi-
ana TO those who still hate the gov
crnment Of the United States, he will
be the candidate of the Democratic
party. Since he has shown dispo>
sition to undo the work of Sheridan,
(says Hsrpers' Weekly and to fos-
ter the hope that somehow the polit-
ical and social power of the State of
Louisiana will be exclusively con
lided to worthy patriots like Mayor
Monroe and his police, who engi-
neered the New Orleans massacre of
1865, the Democratic papers have
begun to perceive what brilliant
soldier, what an able and modest
gentleman, and what an accomplished
statesman General Hancock is.
General Hsncock's military career
was distinguished He did not make
a name among the most illustrious
of the war. and while it is associated
with many gallant services, it is not
identified with any great and deei
sive action. He was one of many
brave and meritorious officers of
whom more was popularity expected
than was achieved. But his military
career alone, however bright it may
have been, would never have COM
mended him to the purveyors of a
candidate for the Democratic party.
But when the vast and universal pop
ularitv of Grant, founded both upon
admiration Of his respondent service
and confidence in his practical wis
dom, revealed to the Democratic
managers their doom-when Lieu
tenant General Sherman declared that
time would but deepen the infamy of
the rebellion, and so ceased to be
possible Democratic candidate-they
were compelled to scan the whole
army list to discover who could fur
nish a military mask for the Demo
cratic copperhead,- and, luckily find
ing General Hancock "conciliating"
in New Orleans, they have grasped
at him and, as we said, if he only
to "conciliate," General
Hancock will be the successor OF
General Nc Clellan in the favor of the
trainers of the Chicago platform of
'64.
Those builders are logical. They
then declared in Chicago that the
war was a failure, and they are now
trying to make it so. They acted
then under the counsel of Vallandig-
ham, and with the cooperation of
Clement Clay and the rebel chiefs,
and they are now united with the
same persons in hostility to the
steady Union element of the rebel
States. They represented then the
spirit Of hatred of equal rights, under
the plea Of State rights, and they
maintain now the State right to de-
stroy the equal rights of citizens.
They still hold that the war was re-
ally the work of the Northern spirit,
and that the Southern States were
deeply wronged. They still adhere
to caste and exclusive privilege.
They still deny the fundamental prin-
ciplc of the American government );
and upon platform of such hostili-I
ties and denials they will ask General
Hancock to stand. unless he should
betray some sympathy with justice,
and generously insist. that a loyal
man should not be wholly subordi-
mated to the disaffected citizens of
the late rebel States sFea '.al'l

doing the same thing-they do not want
their neighbors' property for nothing. But
there are come who will not try to pay
cent as long as the law sustains them in it.
They are selling off their property and put

of the people Of San Francisco boarded in

rant-keepers employed fat, lazy, and dirty
Irishmen, Dutchmen, and Cinnamon, for
cooks and walters, and he conceived the
idea, that if he employed girls-neat, tidy,
quick-witted, and good-looking girls-for
waters he would secure large custom
Immediately.
He accordingly ransacked the employ
ment Offices for recruits, and finally secured
twelve pretty girls; two of these he placed
behind the counter for moneytakerS, and
the remainder were instructed to "pass
around the hash The novelty Of the
thing made it take Immediately. The
restaurant was crowded from morning till
night. No one hought of eating less than
twenty-five cents worth, (you must know
that person can get a fine meal for fifteen
or twenty cents,) and when they devoured
thirty-seven cents worth they would toss
the money-takers fifty-cent piece and
walk away with nonchaiant air. = The

full of nice things al the time. Matters
progressed finely for several weeks, when

mattresses were not go attentive as they
ought to be. They would serve some good
looking fellow with what he would order,
and would then sit down and chat with him
while other customers were waiting to be,

times, but without any effect; SO he deter

He began his search for substitutes, say

however, he was staggered. If Johnny

blow below the belt he could not have been
more astonished; for after the duties of the
day we're concluded, and the cash counted,
ne was asked to attend church with the
girls, as one Of them was going to get mar

him notice in time he would have given
them nice wedding supper. : - :. /
An hours time suficed for the girls to
dress, and then they ell proceeded to

weeks in the restaurant they had been

to find companions for life, but who, owing
to the peculiar mode of living in San Fran
