LAST WORDS ABOUT IT.

SYRACUSE, Sept 23.-Just a glimpse at the
Of action yesterday The feet Of the delegates
directed homeward the faces have by this time looked
ON familiar scenes and the Democratic Convention for
this State and this year is nothing but a name. The
Convention has adjourned and the bars Of Syracuse
deserted by their jolly frequenters Last night until the
midnight train arrived the guests Of the town were
furously happy-to mid expression for strong
feeling This morning the Illicit dispensares miss the
ruddy vsages of many of the delegates They have
and left tradition behind that unimportsnt one,
that every especially blessed with taste for
drinking profusely eating hugely, smoking continually,
and sitting in convention vacanty. Tammany, morti-
fed at the conumaeies and neglect which met her, In
suky within determined to have nothing to say in the
Convention She counted 1t her chieest JOY TO have the
conscious realization that the votes she controlled was
enough to make her valuable auxiliary
any side But ambiguously disposed was she to ALL
that eventually all showed disposition toward her
which was not ambiguous as 1t was disagreeaoe'
Tammanys spirits VIGOROUSLY low. IchabOd was
written the banners Of the delegates and, as one OF
the tribe said very papable hint had been given them
60 retire altogether
The truth may as we'll ont as not. The complaint Of
Che dsaected Tammanyite was That potent organ

and oquired the finest nesse Of the leaders to avert
collision. ''

In the way 1t appeared the predestned duty OF
every man from the country TO ignore Tammany, and
they performed the duty eectuay And this was har'
nOny
The twenty.and-one from New-York In their turn
diverted their indoent hours by toying with their votes
Ahs excited great indignation among the members from
she country districts and evinced, they SAID lack OF
Interest in the welfare Of the State. HoratO Seymours
