TIE Pumps CHoKED M THE SHIP
SETTLING.-A year ago special Commits
sioner Wells estimated that the Internal
Revenue returns would foot up for the
present fiscal year s275,00O, 600. Nj.
Rollins put the figures at 1925, 900 900
aud Mr.. MeCulloch at S209, 600, 000.-
What are the facts? The receipts are
now often as low as $500, 900 daily, n eday
last month going below 500, 900, and the
tendency is downward. A heavy def
cheney is certain at the end of the year,
In June next. What next? A further
issue of greenbacks, and an increase of
the public debt. We shall come out $780,
600, 900 to S75,000 900 short in the in
ternal tax returns. The back bone of the
nation has been broken By the terrible
burden put upon the shoulders of indus
try. Two years ago We were made to
raise $500, 900 900, and the strain upon
the national resources was too great. Eng
land raises 1870, 600, 900 per year, and
although her taxable property is three
times greater than our own, she could not
carry S25, 000,0 900 per year more under
any circumstances. Now the ship of
State is settling fast, we are likely to get
swamped. We are waterlogged, and the
pumps-the tariff and internal revenue
are elogged. We cannot relieve the ship,
and if not relieved in some way, We shall
founder. There is a disposition to throw
the deck load over, and ave the vessel,
if the pumps do not keep her floating.
November will decide what is best to do.

The Democratic Nominees.
lroaArlo SEYMOUR.

The peoples candidate for the Presi.
dency at the next election is native OF
Utica, New York. His father, who was
one of the earlier inhabitants of that city,
and native of Middlebury, Vermont,
was one'of the most distinguished citizens
of Central New York, and at the time of
his death, which occurred about thirty
five years.ago, held the Office .of Canal
Commissioner.
Horatio Seymour, after receiving n
liberal education, studied the law, and
was admitted to the bar. Being possess
ed of an ample fortune, and having en-
barked at an early age in that career in
which he has been so successful and so
justly popular, he never pracliced his
profession. AS very young man he
was the acknowledged favourile of the
young Democracy of New York. His
pure and spotess character, his sound
| Judgment, and his Gne oratorial powers
rendered him, thirty years ago, by far
the most conspicuous Of the younger
members Of the Democratic party Of
the Empire Stale.
In 1850. Mr. Seymour was elected
Governor of New York by small ma
iority. over Governor Washington Hunt
In 1852, he was reelected by a majority
of over twenty thousand In 1862. he
was again elected 10 the same high office,
his term expiring in January, 1865 He
was, therefore, Governor of New York
for two of the most important years of
lhe Weeivi war; and it is a matter of
,record that he cordially co,operated with
Mr.. Lincoln's administration in all just
measures for the vigorous prosecution of
the war, and received the thanks of Mr..
Lincoln for his exertions short time
previous to the death Of the latter.
Governor Seymour is about fifty six
years of age. His wife, daughter of
The late John, r. Bleecker, Of. Albany, is
universally admired for her intelligence,
loveliness Of character, and elegant man.
ners They have no children. Of Mr..
Seymours three sisters, one married Led
yard Sinclair, Of Casenovia; another MIR.
l5Shonnard, or w estchester; ana anotLeE
| the Hon. Roscoe Conklihg, United States
Senator from New York.
Governor Seymours speeches on sub
iects of great public interest during the
last three or four years have been uni
versallv read, and have secured for him
national reputation. 1t is not extrava-
giant to state that few speeches of the
present day have made deeper impress
sion on the public mind than those Of
Governor Seymour.
If elected 10 the Presidency-as he
undoubtedly will be,,by ain overwhelming
majority-he will bring to the Presiden-
tial Office talents equalIed by but few of
Of his predecessors. In patriotism and
purity Of character hesgill mot suffer by
a comparison with the brightest names in
American history.

Created BY nations glee,
With jest and song and revelry,
We sang it in our early pride
Throughout our Southern boraers wide,
While from ten thousand throats rang out
A promise in one glorious shout
"To. live and die for Dixie "
How,well that promise was rsaeemed
Il Witnessed by each Geld where CLEANED

To die for Dixie!-Oh, how blest
Are those who early went to rest,
N4r knew the futures awful store,
But deemed the cause they tough. for sure
AS heaven Itself, and so laid down
The oross;of earth; for elory's rrown,
And no1,y d;el for Dixie.
To live for Dixie-harder part
TO stay the haha--;o still the hcant-
To stay the lips-enshroud The past
To have no futurc-all o'ercast-
To knit lifes broken threads again,
Aud keep her mcm'ry pure from strain
This is to liye for Dixie.

ANEcDorE OF AzHIenIAND SoLp1ER.-

ANEcDorE OF AEHIeHDAND SOLDIER
No man who has ever lived among the.
peasantry of Scotland will deny the
effects produced on them by their popular
songs. During the expedition to Buenos
Ayres, Highland soldier, while prison
or in the hands of the Spaniards, having
formed an attachment to q woman Of the
country, land, charmed by the easy life
Which the tropical fertility of the soil ena-
bled the inhabitants to lead, had resolved
to remain and settle in South America
When he impaired this resolution to his
cumrade, the latter did not argue with
him, but leading him to his tent, he placed
him by his side and sang him Lochaber
no more" The spell was on him. The
tears came in his eyes, and wrapping his
plaid around him, he murmured, "Lo;;
chaber. namair-l nun gang back" The
songs of his childhood were ringing in
his ears, and he left that land of ease and
plenty for the naked rocks and sterile
valleys of Badenoch, where, at the close
of life Of toll hardships, he might lay
his head on his mothers grave.

AMUSING SCENE IN a CoURT RooM.-
In the good.old times in d Western State,
when" substantial justice" was admins
tered in a log cabin, after very free and
easy manner, suit was brought for the
recovery of certain moneys, of which it
was alleged the plaintiff had been de-
fraudedby the ingenious operation known
as Z" "thimble rigging" In the course Of
the trial, the plaintiffs counsel, who hap.
pened to be an "expert," undertook to
enlighten the court as to the modus oper.
andi of the performance. Putting him
self into position, he produced the three
cups and the little JOKER" and proceed
ed, suiting the action to the word:
Then may it please the court, the de.
fendant, placing the cups upon his knees
thus, began shifting them SO, offering to

was the "little JOKER" meaning thereby,
may it please the court, this ball, with
the intention of defrauding my client Of
the sum thus %agered. For instance,
when ! raise>the cup so, your honor sup,
poses that you see the ball"
"suppose eel" interrupted the Judge
who had closely watched the performance
and was sure that he detected the ball as
one of the cups was accidentally raised.
"Why any focl can see where it is, and
bet on it, and he sure to win. Thar ain't
no defraudin thar"
"Perhaps your honor would like to
go a.V on it," insinuated the counsel.
Goa V? yes, and double it, too
and here's the rhino. It's, under The middle

had lnysteriously disappeared. Judge
