HorntiO Seymour Breaking Out In n
New Place.


An Ohio paper has given out as reason
why Ex-Governor Seymour 80 determinedly
declines the democratic nomination for Presi-
dent, the fact that there is proof that in
1864 she was in confidential correspondence
with the rebel commissioners in Canada"
Brevity is one of the admirable characteristics
of the ex-Governor's recent political epistles,
thus insuring them ready insertion in the
country papers without swapping their col
umns. But in this last letter denouncing the
above charge as false and absurd Mr.. Sey-
mour Is at once sharp and peppery, cutting up
the accusation with the keenness Of o Toledo
blade and seasoning his reply with the pun
gency of the well known product of Cayenne.
He says Mr.. Stewards hostility to him is well
known, and insinuates that IL there had been
any plausibility In the sworn statements against
him the State Department would not have
troubled itself about the perjury Of their
authors. One Of these spies and informers was
convicted of false swearing and imprisoned
The ex- Governor declares that he never had
any confidential correspondence with the two
named rebel commissioners, that be never
knew them, and concludes his letter in the
following spicy and significant manner :
''What was sworn to or made UP by Mr..
Stewards spies do not know; but think the
public would be interested bya view of the
system of informers and perjury in use during
the past seven years. I hope it will be laid
bare by new administration" II is, indeed
rather singular that Mr.. Seward should have
remained quiet for SO long period as sever
years without putting, or attempting. b pnt, ,
quetus upon his old political adversary II
this State; and that he suffers Nsese state
ments to escape from his department at thi
late day argues that he is becoming alarme,
/ at the progress of the reaction in the countr
against his policy, and that o stab in the di
rectlon of Seymours fifth rib is one of the ne
cessi.ies of the hour. After ell II does not mat
ter much. Horace Greeley was engaged In

INTERESTING SUIT.-The heirs of the late
John \. Washington, of Mount Vernon, have
begun suit in Chicago for the recovery Of one
hundred thousand dollars worth of real estate
in that city, which was owned by Washington
at the time he was shot in Virginia, 1851
y Chicago lawyer made his way through the
lines, and finding the Washington heirs,
represented that the estate would be cCnfs-
Gated if it remained in their name, and had it
decided to him for safety. He has since re-
fused to restore thence the suit.
