THE KENosHA UNION ON THE SEvAs>
TAPoL STATESMAN AGAIN. In the
Keneshs Union of last week, under
the caption of"The Sevastopol Statesman
Again." there was an editorial of nearly
column and half abusive of DR.. Farr,
the Republican candidate for member of
Assembly, which required and would
have received due notice, but we we're
informed that it had been brought to the
notice ofthe editor and publisher, and that
he had promised to rstract it. The Union's
Regret, sent to us for publication and is
to appear in this Union, makes ne refer
ence to this abusive editorial. And
whether it is intended to take the place
of the promised retractien, or full re-
traction will appear in the Union, we can
know only after the next issue of the
Union. We could wish for the latter, a.
it would save US from giving tho editor.
ial such notice as it deserves. The re-
traction of squlb not written by the
editor, and the retraction of deliberate
~ abnsiYe and untruthful editorial are
two altogether different things.

Two disgraceful squibs appeared in
the Kenosha Unisn of last week in rela.
ton to J. V. Quarles Jr. and DR.. A. Farr,
Republican candidates for District Attor-
nsy and Member of the Assembly char.
acteristio of that paper. 1t lily becomes
the editor of the Union to attempt to lam
poon Esq. Quarles and DR.. Farr, and, if he
has any remaining sense of decency, he
should hasten to make apology and to
promise amendment.

LIBERALISM IN INDIANA.

"Upon what slender thread hang ever
lasting things is an old adage, but it is
supplemental by another similar one
''upon What slender foundation do the
Liberals have to build" since the October
elections. Extracting blood from turnip,
or sunshine from q cucumber, would be
very much like getting comfort, one would
think, for Mr.. Greeley's lost cause from
the result of the vote just taken in the
great central states, whose potent voice
and contagious example have settled the
question of General Grants re election.
But the Opposition journals go on with
| their funeral ceremonies and cipher Jout
the victory that is yet to be. eff we can
only carry oil the Southern States" cries
one Liberal committee, land enough of
the Northern States to make majority,
then Mr.. Greeley's election is secured
Exactly Any fool can see that; but that
little eff is tremendous obstacle in the
way that cannot be overcome Tt might
as well be said that Mr.. Greeley would
be elected If he could carry all the states
and receive all the electoral votes. The
supposition implies an impossibility
Greeley cannot carry all the Southern
States any more than he can carry all
the New England States and every
intelligent man knows it. IF ho
could, be cannot carry states enough ia
the North to insure his election. One of
Greeley's newspapers asserts that the same
influences that have been at work fer the
Liberal cause in Indiana will extend into
the neighboriDg state of Illinois. Quite
likely. But if they should, so much the
worse for Greeleyism. Look at the true
condition of affairs in Indiana, and what
do We see to comfort the Opposition Two
years ago they had majority of 2,50C
and now they have elected their Governor
Mr. Hendricks, by the skin of their tcetl
it he is elected at all, and all else they
have lest. The Republicans have elected
all the rest of the state officers, both Con.
gressmen at-large, ten cut of the thirteen
Congressmen. and majority in both
branches Vt the Legislature. If that is O
Greeley victsry, what in the name of com.
mon sense weuld be called a defeat? II
1T turns out that Hendricks is elected, il
has been done solely by his personal pop.
ularity and in defiance of the dead weight
of Liberalism that proved to be the OLD
Man of the Sea to his colleagues ON the
ticket. In October, 1868, the Republicans
carried the state by only 961 majority
and in November following Grants ma
Jority was nearly 10000. With all these
facts in view, the same ciphering that
Classics Indiana as doubtful state new
would place every other state in the same
category, except Vermont and Iowa. The
Republicans have not only elected the
two new Congressman that the last ap.
portionment gave the state, but have
gained two others and defeated VOORHEES,
the representative man of the Democracy
We shall be disappointed if Grant doe,
not carry the state by 10000 majority
Such is the condition Of Mr.. Greeley
lost cause in Indiana MiIuauEee Sentinel

sleepless, he had his son William read the
New York Times to him of "Wednesday
morning. He slept after pretty well
till IL a. M, of Thursday, though his
fever kept up without any real remission
AT 80 be was seized with great Difficult
ty In breathing, caused by sudden Co.
tarrhal effusion into the lungs, commenc-
ing with the right lung and soon lnvolv.
ing the left also, which occasioAed his
death in about two hours. He entertain.
ed no apprehension but that he should
recover from the attack of catarrhal ague
till last night and this morning. The
fact that fever was increasing upon him,
together with catarrhal disturbance, led
his physician to apprehend fatal results in
course of week or more, yet no immedi-
ate fear was felt, and his dissolution was
sudden and unexpected.
Stewards intellectual faculties were
clear and vigorous to the last, save when
he was disturbed by paroxsysms of fever.
Just after the effusion from the lungs,
thinking that it would relieve his breath
ing, he was at his own desire placed on a
lounge and bolstered up and moved from
his adjoining bedroom into his study,
where, in the midst of his books and his
literary End other papers, and surrounded
by his relatives and few friends and all
his dependents, he breathed his last. For
the last hours of his life, as the powers of
nature were giving way, his condition be-
came easy, and he spent the time in affec-
ti0nate leave taking of relatives and
friends. and finally sank quietly to his
last rest as if going to sleep.
The foregoing is substantially the Tel
egraphic account Of the last sickness and
death of William II. Seward. Finding
in the Wisconsin, State Journal a mucl
better obituary of Mr.. Seward than W.
could write, we print it in this paper. I
We are not mistaken there is one defec
in the Journals obituary, and in all Other
obituaries of Mr.. Seward which we have
seen. We have not the Political Histo
ry of New York to refer to, but if oul
memory serves us right, William II. Sew
ard commenced his political life ant
gained his first political popularity as al
anti-mason. With this exception, if it b.
an exception, the Journals obituary is
very good one.

THE UNIONS REGRET.

We have been furnished the following
article in print by the editor of the Kep-
osha Union with the assurance that it will
appear in the Union Of this week and the
request for its publication in the TELE.
GRAPH. We extend the courtesy and
hale the indications Of improvement, but
sorry the article did not arrive in time ia
prevent any notice Of the Uaion's squibs
from appearing in the TELEGRAPH.
REGRET.
There was in the UNION last week, a
paragraph in which the name Of DR.,
Farr appeared. and was susceptible of a
construction, which we believe was not
intenoed. We were not the author of the
article, and had proper attention been
given to it in a hasty proof reading, it
would not have appeared in our columns
The only idea, which the paragraph i'm
pressed upon our mind at the time, was
like that produced by Nast's CARTOONS OF
Brown tackled to the coat tail Of Greeley
but upon having our attention called to
the matter, we see some might attach a
grosser idea to it and ono which we think
was not intended and which certainly is
not merited. We most sincerely regret
its appearance. We believe that all will
boar testimony, that during the six and
half years, we have under many Difficult.
ties published the UNION, we have aeal'
