The name of Seymour after Noyem-

HoRATro SEYMOUR has been three
times defeated as gubernatorial can
didate.
EVERY negro becomes Intelligent
"moral," refined" and "white,p the
moment he votes the Democratic ticket.
Democratic tactics DoOlittle and say
mour. Grants plan: Say less and do
more.
The Democrats are so deficient in
arithmetic that in adding up Northern
States they don't know how to ''carry
one"
noRAT1o SEYMOUR originally had a
middle name, Nelson, which he drop
ped. Good chance for a few articles
in The World
SEYMoUR's physicians say he is like
lily to become crazy within year. II
he has any hopes of defeating Grant
he is crazy already.
ONE of the strongest arguments ad-
duced by the New York Democratic pa
pers in favor of Seymour's election, is
that his hands "are as white as a wo-
mans"
Gov. SEYMOUR says in his speech Of
acceptance he has been "caught up by
the tide" He has, sure enough-the
tide that will carry him up Salt River.
A SOUTHERN Democrat pretty nearly
hit the general feeling of his section
when he said he was converted Rebel,
but "liable to backslide."
DooLTrLE says that Seymour fought
the battle of Gettysburg. The WI
n1ington (Del.) Commercial says this is
mistake-he only aided the Rebels
to fight it.
The Hon. James Hughes of Indiana,
one of the most eloquent of the Demo
cratic orators now practiciDg law in
Washington, will return to his State as
soon as Congress adjourns, and take
the stump for Grant and Colfax. -
The Rockford, NL,) Gazette states
that upward of hundred Democrats

elections last week, and pledged them.

UNDER the administration of john
sons favorite, General Buchanan, Texas
averages sixty murders a month. The
average under General Sheridan was
nine. What would the increase be if
the Democracy elected their nominees 7
The New York World says 'the
first place in seYmour'S Cabinet will be
offered to the Hon. Clement L. Vallan-
digham." We are glad the appoint
ment of Mr.. Vsllandigham to the first
place in the Cabinet is so far of.
THE New York Convention, in adopt
ing a reputation platform and then
placing the bondholders' candidate on
it, was very much like the man who
was in favor of stringent temperance
law, but opposed to its enforcement.
HoRATIo SEYMOUR, Democratic can
didate for President of the United States,
during the war used these words: "If
it is true that slavery must be abolished
to save this Union, then the people of
the South should be allowed to with
draw themselves from that government
which cannot give them the protection
guaranteed by its terms"
Mr.. HENDRICKs said in the Senate
the other day that he had intended to
show the Democratic platform was so
plain, distinct, and direct that nobody
could misunderstood its meaning; "but,
SIR" he continued, 'it OOt'ld likely take
more time than I am able to occupy"
The Democratic papers are in great
straits to find out some way of attack
ing Grant. They cannot deny that he
led our armies to victory and saved the
Union; they cannot deny his immense
services to the country; they cannot
deny his executive and practical genius
they cannot deny his personal and Of
fetal integrity. And 80 they have got
up a variety of expedients-some pitt
ful, some villainous. Thus the World
has been writing silly nonsense for some
months past about his name, and latter
ly it has resorted to the old but worth
less dodge of unscrupulous party hacks,
of making charges of drunkenness.
This is'the best and worst they can do;
and we should think it must convince
the most hide-bouud Democrat that
the opposition to Grant has nothing
whatever to stand upon.
GEORGE Wilkes makes the follow
ing offer: We have little money left,
notwithstanding our impeachment los
ses; and stand ready to start anew
with few thousand on General Grant
against Seymour for the next President.
By way of making distinct offer, we
will begin with $4,000. We will doub-
Ie this offer if required, and go even a
little further, if pressed hard. Who
speaks?
A letter received by gentleman of
Cairo from Oxford, Mississippi, states
that a few days ago Sheriff W. s. Mckee,
