CHOW one Inramr win be Upset. :,

In the speeches made by General
Wade Hampton, and Ex-Governor
Vance, of North Carolina, and Perry
of South Carolina, In New York, on
Thursday evening, we have an answer
to the Jacobin inquiry of What will
the Democratic party do with the
State Governments organized under
the reconstruction infamy ?"-Chicd-
go Times.
The Times is right. Unfortunately,
we have an answer as to what the
Democratic party will do, if they get
the power, in the utterances of its
leaders.
They will " trample the laws of
Congress in the DUST" according to
FRANK. BLAIR.
They will forcibIy attempt to install
SEYMOUR in the White House, no
matter whether he be lawfully elected
or not, according to WADE HAMP-
TON.
They will demonstrate that "seces-
sion is more alive than ever" accord
ing to HENRY A. WISE.
They will achieve all that the Con-
tederacy fought for by the election of
SEYMOUR and BLAIR" according to
Governor VANCE.

now this infamy is to be upset."

person thus affected. The man is
faint, perhaps unable to move, though
he can generally be reused; he has a
feeble pulse and a cool and moist skin.
Here there is simply loss of nervous
power, and relief is promptly afforded
by removing him to a cool, shady
place, applying cold water or ice to
the head, and administering iced
brandy and water, iced wine and wa

and more fatal form of this affection,

hot and dry, his breathing hurried,
convulsions are not uncommon, and,
if proper treatment be not promptly
resorted to, death soon takes place.
In this case, also, the patient should
be promptly removed to a shady and
cool spot, perfectly private, so that
the crowd be kept off without fail.
His clothing should be stripped off,
and his whole body should be rubbed
with ice from head to foot, and pieces

The Treaty with China.

s. There is no event of this generation
which. more clearly indicates the adj
vance and power of civilization and
Chr stianity than the proposed treaty
agreed upon between the Chinese
Embassy, now in Washington City,
and the President and Secretary SEW
ARD. It has been reported to the
Senate, and will doubtless receive
early consideration In that body.
While in some of the details it may
undergo modification, the general
provisions of the treaty will be rati-
fed by our Government. 1t is also
intended to submit it to the leading
Powers of Europe for acceptance.
The following is the leading pro
visions of the treaty:
The Emperor of China in the
treaty declines to cede the right of
eminent domain in any Of his lands
or waters, to citizens Of foreign coun-
tries, but gives them the privilege of
residing in the land, aud trading in
i certain waters, and will protect citi-
zens of the United States living In
his Empire from attack by powers
hostile to our own country. We are
not to attack citizens of any other
country living In his dominion, but
may defend ourselves If assailed
The Emperor reserves his right OF
jurisdiction over the persons and
property of American citizens, resi-
4 - l.,
ceded by treaty. He also reserves
the right to make regulations as to
trade on his rivers and in his cities
but stipulates that they shall be made
in a liberal spirit. We give him the
right to appoint Consuls to our ports
and agree that they shall have the
same privilege as those of European
nations. The widest religious toll
Grafton is guaranteed to citizens
of either country, while residing
in the other. The right OF
persons to change their homes and
citizenship is warmly recognized, and
free migration will be encouraged
We are to pass laws making it penal
offense to entice subjects away from
China without their voluntary con.
sent, and are to give all the protec.
ton of our laws to such as come here
to live. Citizens of either country
freely migrating to the other are tC

with respect to privileges and immu.

and no religious or political tests ar,
to be applied. We are to allow the
Emperor to employ engineers ant

Democratic Authority on Seymour
and the Platform.

The Democracy ought to be willing
to be judged by their own chosen and
recognized party exponents. Let us
see what they say about the platform
and candidate regarding the financial
question, which is one of so much in.

The New York Journal of Com
naerce, the oldest Democratic paper in
that city, says: Governor SEYMOUR
has always insisted on the obligation
to pay the Government Bonds in
gold. He maintains that any other
course is rank reputation"
THE New York World, Mr.. SEY-
MoUR's home organ, says: THE
bondhOlders need have no fears
that their property is to be swept
away by a new inundation Of paper
money. Payment of the public debt
in greenhacks without increasing
their present amount, payment in
green backs out of the proceeds of
taxation, will leave the greatest por-
ton of the debt standing for many
years to come"
BRICK PoMERoY, the great leader
of the Northwestern Democracy, says
IN his paper-the acknowledged organ
Of the party" 1t is we'll known that
Governor SEYMOUR is opposed to
touching the financial question
wants to leave it standing as it is, all
IN favor of the bondholders, and
against the people-gold, and no taxes
to pay, for the former, and rags, and
all the taxes to pay, for the latter"

Shakesperean Reading for Seymour.
The Democratic politicians say that
SEYMOUR, time and again, refused the
tender of the nomination of that
great party, for the highest Office in
the gift of the people. No parallel
can be found this side of the cele-
brated refusal of CESAR to accept the
Roman crown. SHAKEsPEAR's rem
dering of the scene recalls the New
York Convention affairs very wildly

thus; and then the people fell shout
ing.
Brutus-What was the second noise
for?
Casca-Why, for that, too.
Cassius-They shouted thrice.
What was the last cry for?
Casca-Why, for that, too.
Brutus-Was the crown offered
him thrice?
Casca-Ay, marry vast, and he put
it by thrice, every time gentler than
the other; and at every putting by
mine honest neighbors shouted.
Cassius-Who offered him the
crown?
Casca-Why, Anthony.
Brutus-Tell us the manner of it,
gentle Casca.
Casca-I can as well be hanged as
tell the manner of it; it was mere
foolery; [ did not mark it. I saw
Mark Antony offer him a crown; YET
twas not crown neither; twas one
of these coronets; and, as I told you,
he put it by once; but for all that, to
my thinking, he would fam have had
it. Then he offered it to him again
then he put it by again, but to my
thinking, he was very loath to lay his
fingers off it. And then he offered il
the third time; he put it the third
time by; and still, as he refused it,
the rabblemen shouted, and clapped
their chapped hands, and threw up
their night-caps, and uttered such a
deal of sinking breath, because
Caesar refused the crown, that it had
almost choked Caesar; for he swoonc d,
and fell down at it. And, for mine
own part, | burst not. laugh, for fear
