That pole whose attenuated form has
80 IoaG been stretched out in Bay street
was successfully raised last Saturday
evening accompanied by the usual
shouts and hurrahs on such occasions.
We were quite satisfied that it was a
political institution, either for Grant or
Greeley; in fact we were so sanguine
that We were very anxious to make a
bel, but not being able to find any
worshippers Of either Of the above can
didates, we ventured up boldly to the
proprietor and asked him if Grant Or
Greeley was to be emblazDntd d on our
noble banner. He gave US significant t
wink, which satisfied our curiosity, and
we came away contented.

Death of W. ii. Seward.

William II. Seward died at his resi-
dence in Auburn, N. Y, on Thursday,
Oct. 10. Tertian ague was the inime-
diate cause of his death, though he
had been a sufferer for several years
with muscular palsy.
His intellectual faculties were clear
and vigorous to the last, save when
disturbed by the paroXyms OF fever
Just after the cfi'usion from the lungs,
thinking it would relieve his breathing,
he was at his own desire, placed upon
a lounge and bOlStered up and moved
from his adjoining bedroom into his
study, where, in the midst of his books
and his literary aul other papers, and
surrounded by his relatives, lew
friends. and all his devoted dependents,
he breathed his last. During the last
hour of his life, as the powers ofnature
were giving way, his condition became
easv. and he spent the time IN aztec
tionate leave-takings Of his relatives
and dependents, and finally sank quiet
iy to his last rest as if going to sleep.
