There will be a bolt, and n serious one
from the nomination of Gov Swami for
Congress IN the third district. The on
position to him amcng large number of
the democrats il much more decided than
a simple matter of fancy and personal
choice.
he Charleston Mercury OF, Weines~
day says that in order 10 carry that state
for Blair and Seymour fifty thousand dol
lats are needed, and adds. 'ohal we
have IL or will men button M their peck.
ets, and, passing under the yoke OF the
African sink to nothing the value Of all
that they now own}' If they can't raise
that sum, TO prevent such dreadful cons
sequences, They must lie 'dead broke"
The Albany Argus praisiug Mr. Sey,
mour's agricultural address at Saratoga,
/ says: "Gov Seymour illustrates in his own
quiet and retired life, The purifying in
/ huences Of which are manifest in his chars
acter. the argument which he puts forth
! in defense Of rural and agricultural pur.
suits" Fortunately for the unsophistcated
old gentleman, there is no danger Of his
simple rural character being spoiled by
transplantation TO Washington.
The Bayards and Saulsburys Of Della
ware control rival factions in the demo
cratic party in that state. The senatorial
term OF James A. Bayard will expire
next March, and the candidates'for the
place are Thomas +. Bayarl, son of the
present senator, and Gov Salisbury,
cousin Of the other senator from that state.
The latter seems to have the best chance
but it is possible that the republicans may
render their rivalry unnecessary.
The southern democrats have made an
other interesting discovery, which is that
no OK rebels are DISTINGUISHED by the new
southern constitutions They merely ex-
clude from office and voting those that
are excluded by the fourteenth amendment
TO the constitution of the United States.
and that excludes certain classes removed
from office, not any from the suffrage.
But some other southern constitutions re-
qnire ofvoters an oath to support negro
suffrage. Will the ex rebels take that.
As the New York World takes the lib,
erty OF stating that Mr. John Allen Of
Water street is Il republican, the 1'ri-
bune has the authority of that gentleman
for stating that, although he has cxpcris
enccd the saying grace OF Christianity in
many respects, he is still confirmed be,
never in the democratic party, and a sup
porter of Seymour and Blair. We are not
without hopes, if the process Of rcgcneia-
