baggers at the South. Ihey prefer the
Rebel knapsackers.
The World speaks of Horatio Sey-
mour as ''patriot" This is an ilu-
sion to the Pat Riots iu New York in
July, I863.-Detroh Tribune.
Many of the unterriied base their
hope Of Seymour's carrying New York
upon the fact that his "friends' can
vote oftener than the friends of any
other man.
At the Democratic ratification, in
Richmond, Vance declared that What
the COafederacy fought for ,cOuld be iron
By the election Of Seymour and Blair" Of
course.
Ittook the Democratic National Con-
vention three days to nominate a can
didate, but only three minutes to pass
q resolution requesting President John
son to pardon jeff. Davis
A Western paper says that the DEM
Ocrats in Indiana are 80 enraged at the
defeat of Pendleton that they actually
show symptoms of apoplexy if green
back is exhibited to them.
The Democratic National Convention
opened with an eloquent prayer by the
Rev. Mr.. Morton and closed with elo-
quent curses, not loud but deep, by the
swindled Pendletonians.
The Commonwealth says: awe are ex-
pecting every day to hear some enthu-
siastic Democrat give as a reason for
Colfaxs unftness for the Vice Presi-
dency, that he was never drunk in his
life"
Mr.. Pendleton, with his theory of
unlimited greenbacks, clings around
the neck of Seymour like the Old Man
of the Sea on the shoulders of Sinbad.
Seymour is sure TO be choked unless he
breaks his tormentor's head.
When people are drowned cannon
are sometimes fred for the purpose Of
raising their corpses. The Democrats
have been firing cannon over Seymour
and Blair. But there is no hopes of
getting their heads above water.
An old soldier who has lost an arm
says: 81 am waiting TO see If the peo-
Pile of this country are going to elect
Horatio Seymour, and if they do ! will
swear that l lost my arm in threshing-
machine, not in defense of my country"
A New York paper says that Blair
takes whisky for medicinal purposes.
The Hartford Post says: awe are in
clined to think it pas 'for medicinal
purposes" -to-wit, for corns. He was
dreadfully corned all the time he was
here"
Semmes, the pirate, supports Sey-
mour aud Blair, of course, and has
made q speech urging their election.
It is suggested that if they should hap
pen to be elected, he would make a good
Minister to England to settle the AId-
bGma claims.
Doolittle, too, says that Seymour
fought the battle of Gettysburg. Well,
II he did he had O very queer way of
talking about that exploit in the famous
4th-of-July speech delivered in New
York while the fighting was going on
in Pennsylvania.
An old Democrat OF Johnson Coun-
ty, Indiana, was debating with his
neighbors the probabilities Of the Tam
many Hall nomination, and expressed
the opinion that John ]. Crittenden,
Of Kentucky, would be the candidate.
Seymour is as dead as Crittenden.
The Detroit Post says: "The DEM
ocratic party proposes to run the Pres
idential race with three-legged horse,
Seymour is the bloated bondholders'
candidate. Blair is the candidate Of
the TevOlutionists. Their platform is
the candidate Of the repudiationists. +"
Many of the delegates and visitors at
the Democratic Convention in this city
complained bitterly because the price OF
whisky was put up TO Is cents drink
during the Convention. But they took
their revenge in nominating Blair lie
viii put whisky down IN spite Of New
York.
The Boston Post complains Of the
vigorous manner In which the Repub-
licans conduct the campaign, and says
'The blood-hounds have been let loose.
To which the Transcript responds
''Yea, and before the campaign closes
our neighbor will see the foxy Seymour
lose bis brush, and the woltish Blair,
his ears"
An exchange says; "Gen. Grant and
che Democracy have done a great dea
of business together within the pas
