In less than one month the people Of
the United States will vote for President
and Vice President For whom will they
vote 1t might be considered by every
American citizen an Jesuit to ask him
such question Horatio Seymour lin the
first place is very ordinary pol
itician in an intellectual point of view In
the second place, he is very common
sort of man in any view OF the question
one may take. Besides, he is one of the
most sneaking, dastardly traitors brought
to light by the war lie was far great
er obstacle to the prosecution of the war
than Vallingdigham, whose extreme views
we're received as a matter of course. Ey-
cry Union man in the country regarded
Seymour's election as Governor of New
York, in 1862, as u misfortune to the ma
ton. 1t was a victory over which the
Richmond junta of rebels rejoiced. No
sooner was Seymour elected than the
whole rebel policy changed. Instead of
lighting on the offensive, the Union army
was forced to defend Itself on the soil of
Pennsylvania. On the Fourth of July
the day Of all others, when it is thought
patriotic motives prompt American citi-
zens to action, Horatio Seymour made a
miserable, traitorous, cowardly speech,
tauntingly asking, s'Where are the yicto-
ries you promised ?" Grant, that day, was
securing Pemberton's sword at Vicksburg
Seymour now asks that the people vote
for him instead of Grant.
