general theme of conversation, and
Democratic Congressmen are just as

bate In the Senate to-day, and de-
cIared that the Democratic party can
not be charged with its endorsement,
even if it has nominated its writer for
Vice President. One Democratic
member of the House, from Pennsyl-

fool for writing it, and greater d-d
fool for printing it.
Mr.. Barnes, Democrat, from Brook
lyn, telegraphed 10 leading delegate
in the Convention, yesterday, after the
nomination of Seymour was received,
that the Republicans were iubilant
and the Democrats depressed; that

of the nominations. held up his hands
