Gov. HoRATIo SEYMOUR gives it
as his opinion that New York State
will give fifty thousand Democratic
majority this Fall. and that Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio will sweep away Radi-
calism from their midst. This is not
the first time the distinguished Gov
ernor has attempted the role OF
prophet. During the last Presiden-
tial campaign his Vaccinations were
numerous and quite positive. Unfor-
tunately, however, for his reputation
as a Seer, the ful6llmeat generally was
the reverse of the prediction. We
presume the Democratic majority in
New York is only limited by the de-
sire of the leaders and the frauds II
the city. But in Ohio and Pennsyl
vania matters are different.

TIE increase of crime in Philadel-
phia has been so alarming that the
Judge of the Criminal Court there
has lost all faith in reformatory
punishment. On last Friday be said,
in his charge to the GrandJury:
$ The punishment, and not the
reformation, of the offender is the
true remedy to secure the safety Of
the community. Much has been said
against the extreme cruelty of the old
criminal codes, but l tell you in the
end thty will be found more efficient
to check crime than this reformatory
principle"
He also inveighed heavily against
the plan of keeping criminals in jail
like boarders at hotel" m

ONLY Hope OF DEMoCRACY.-A
" secret circular" just issued by the
Ohio Democratic State Committee, has
come to light, which betrays their
only hope Tor PENDLEToN and another
Democratic Legislature. They rely
on a light Republican vote, and are
straining every nerve to bring out the
last Democrat on Tuesday. With
Republican vote, PENDLEToN and a
Democratic Legislature stand not the
slightest chance. IF the Republicans
permit the election to 60 By default,
now that they have discovered the
tactics of their adversaries, they will
deserve not the slightest sympathy.
Nor can it be disputed that the vic
tories Of the Democratic party are
mainly when a light vote is polled.
No matter how Insignificant or im-
portant the election that party gener-
ally votes its last man. 1t is strange
that Republicans will not learn a
lesson from that party in this par
ticular.

IF bad the power, I would ar
range it in this way: | would give
these men, just emerged from slavery,
a period of probation; l would give
them time to acquire little property
and get a little education; time to
learn something about the simplest
forms of business, and prepare them
selves for the exercise of political
power. At the end Of ten, fifteen or
twenty years let them come into the
enjoyment Of their political rights
He was not then in favor, as he had
said. of the immediate entranchise-
ment of freedmen, thinking that it
was not measure of necessity, and
that it had better be postponed for
few years. But IN this he con-
fessed that ne had been mistaken.
Experience had demonstrated that
the Fifteenth Amendment is the only
salvation and sure preservation OF the
entire system of reconstruction in the
South. TCheers He referred. In
that speech, to the condition of the
colored men Of the North, and espe-
cially of Indiana, deploring the politi-
cal and civil position in which they
were placed under the laws of Indi-
ana, and his speech at that time was a
recognition Of the principles that In
the Northern States there was no rea-
son and no justice in debarring col
ored men from the right of suffrs ge or
the enjoyment of civil rights. And
he read from the speech to prove
this:
thousand colored people In this State.
Most of them can read and write.
Many Of them are very intelligent and
excellent citizens, well to do in the
world, well qualified to exercise the
right Of suffrage and political power.
But how stands the matter? We not
only exclude them from voting-we
| exclude them from testifying in the
courts of Justice. We exclude them
from our public schools, and we make
il unlawful and crime for them to
come into the State of Indiana at any
time subsequent to 1850"
With a full knowledge that this
clause was contained in that speech.
and that [ recognized, from beginning
to end, the propriety and justice of
impartial suffrage. it has been pre-
scented by Mr.. Hendricks as an evil
dence of my inconsistency upon the
subject of the Fifteenth Amendment.
Well, be referred to another thing.
At that time, you will remember,

Mine eyes,were stiffansd with the last nights
st >tpara ole ttr: iSi ~ 3 81 i. ~ -
And ny brow ached too heavily to weep,
Opprest with sorrow past and future fears,
Too weary to awake-@too sad to sleep.S
With listless hand drew away the blind,
To look where lay the morning dull and
gray;
1 heard no whisper Of the cold night wind,
saw no gleam to chase the gloom away.
Spread like morning veil on every hill
Hung cheerless mist, through which the
dark dawn crept;
The rain-drops on the trees lay cold and
Like tears of one who in his sleep hath
wept.
Sadly I turned and laid me down again,
Till sorrows leaden trance my sense did
steal,
As those who, lulled byavcry strength of
Forget their pain awhile, and cease to
feel 49,
So passed the hours away. and awoke;
But while I slept the world had travelled
The damp mist rolled away. the morning
broke,
And, pouring radiance forth. up rose the
sum-
The purple hills were tinged with living
light,
The grass was waving in the morning
breeze,
Like sparkling gems the rain-drops of the
night ".
In rainbow showers were glittering from
the trees.
Then my heart melted, too, and the deep
gloom
Passed like the dreary morning mist away !;
The sun shone warm and bright into my
room,
And I rose up from my dull trance to
pray.
o God most merciful! tits ever so;
While thankless man feels but the present
pain,
And lies stepped in the WEAKNESS Of woe,
Thy step is drawing near to heal again.
Then teach US, Lord, to bow beneath the
rod,
Even for the chastisement to love the
more;
To trust the mercy of the loving God,
And in the very blow His hand adore.
So shall we walk through our lifes chequered
day,
Safe from its noontide heat its evening
blight,
Till the last hour of gloom shall pass away,
And leave US to awake in endless light.

Anecdotes OF James II. Brndy-The Balsor
Trial.


The trial of Baker, for the murder of
Poole furnished a'notable instance of Mr..
Brady's intrepidity in behalf of client.
It was at the height of the 'Know- Nothing
excitement, and Poole, after receiving the
fatal bullet having exclaimed, II die an
American" succeeded in causing himself to-
be regarded as martyr to the cause. Lin
gering for days with-as the post n,ortens
proved "a bullet deeply ilubeded in his
heart, the interest and excitement became
intense; and, on the day of his funeral,
behind the coffin Of the martyred trough" -,
In such state of public feeling, Baker was
put on trial for his life. At the opening of
the charge by the; Judge, aroused by its
tenor, Mr.. Brady seized pen and oom-
menced writing rapidly, indignation show
ing itself in his set lips and frowning brow.
The momentithe Judge had ceased, he was
on his feet and began: ''You have charged
the jury thus and thus. protest against
your SO stating it." The Judge said he
would listen to tie objections after the jury
had retired. ''No," exclaimed the indig-
nant orator, ''I choose that the jury shall
hear those objections and, defying inter
ference, he poured forth impetuously forty
five separate and formal objections, couch
ing them all emphatically in words of per-
sonal protest to the Judge. The force of
the Judges charge on that jury was pretty
effectually broken. The indignation of the
advocate at this time was real. not simulated; +;
and he, at least, of the New York bar, dared
to defy and to denounce injustice, even
when clad in ermine. OF such were those
brave, elder members of the legal profes-
sion, who. in former days and other lands,
kept alive the fires of civil liberty.
After two trials here he obtained change
of venue, and the trial was transferred to
Newburg This gave rise to another Incl
dent, which Brady was fond of telling, es-
pecially when he wished to disarm prejudice
against the looks of any witness or client
The trial was to be held before Judge
The judge, lawyers, high sheriff, deputies
and prisoner, all went up in the cars to Fish
kill. The streets we're crowded by thou
sands, eager to see the prisoner As they
passed to the boat to cross over to Newburg
the Judge happened to take the arm of
High Sheriff Willets. Some one recogniz-
ing the Sheriff, pointed out his companion
rs the accused murderer, with "Dont you
see his id bloodthirsty face" fancying, as
Brady would say, they saw all the linea.
ments of II brutal murderer in the calm
bland features Of his Honor
THE BUSTED CASE.
Another instance of his intrepidity before
Judge was In the Busteed case. The Judge
had threatened to convict him for contempt.
Busteed had apologised; and Brady, also,
with his matchless grace and courtesy, had
rendered Busteed's apology; but the Judge
still said that he should send him to prison.
''You will, will you?" said Brady. "I say
you will not" And, citing authority after

George d. Prentice has been a constant
drinker for forty years. For ten years he
has been an excessively hard drinker.
Here is temperance lecture by him, and
worthy OF him:
"There are times when the pulse lies low
in the bosom, and beats low in the veins
when the spirit sleeps, which apparently
knows no waking, sleeps in its house of
clay, and the windows are shut, the doors
hung in the invisible Grape of melancholy,
when we wish the golden sunshine pitchy
darkness, and wish to fancy clouds where
no clouds be. This is state of sickness
when physic may be thrown to the dogs,
