THE REJECTION OF DIR. SEYMOUR.

70 me Editor Of The TrtbunG
SIR: A communication in your paper of to-
day from Cumberland, Nd, Is plausible and
apparently welounded In its reflections the House
OF Clerical and Lly Deputies that justice seems to
demand the publication of word In their defense The
writer, IL drawing his conclusion that the act was
one OF partisanshp, dismsses as absurd the sup
position that any deputies could have honestly believed
the Rev. Dr. Seymour to be Justly liable to evil report

House and now published furnish sufficient denial

nothing while the other had much to gain by
his respective statement, may have concluded

A Lover and his Duck.


My machine is in order, its wound up
again,
And now it will sing you sweet little
strain,
About young lover whose name | won't
tell,
But all of you know him, I know very
well.
lie dresses quite neat, with his cane cuts
dash,
When he speaks you would think his
mouths full of hash;
He thinks he is handsome but that's a
mistake,
He's miserable fool and a.bonafide rake.
Tie courts young lady, at least so It's
said,
He bathes in perfume and greases his
head;
He calls her his duck also his dear,
She gigglcs and wriggles then drops 4
big tear.
Twas not long ago, twas one Sunday
night,
was taking a stroll and saw sight;
They were taking Il stroll and in whispers
did talk,
He said my dear duck we had 4 good
walk.
4 tree was close by and they stopped in
the shade,
She simpered and sighed and with her
apronstring played;
He said something then / know made her
blush,
For she said oh my dearI wish you would
hush.
For some one might hear youand we'll be
found out,
And you know that my mother don t
know I'm out;
Oh let us 90 home can slip in the gate,
You know my beloved it is now getting
late.
They then left the place where they had
stood,
Now to follow them home L thought l
should;s
| came to the conclusion I'd better go
home,
SO ] left the sweet lovers homeward to
roam.
And now in conclusion TO the lovers
would say,
BE careful in the future who you meet i'll
your way:
Such conduct is sinful and morally wrong
And YOUR names may appear i'll ma

Row AMoNG CANAL BoATMEN.-Ihe
Washington Republican says lester-
dav afternoon an altercation took qlacc
between two boatmen up the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal, at Georgetown which
will likely result in the death of the
parties. 1t appears that at the time there
was great jam of boats, the owners OF
which were all anxious to be started
npon a return trip northward. During
one Of the customary alterations which
ordinarily accompany canal enterprises,
a colored man named Sandy SorreH, it
is said, was seriously injured by receiv-
ING blow on the head by brickbat
thrown by young Irishman named
John Dugan was arrested. 1t seems,
however, that at the time the occur
renee took place Dugan, who was la
borer upon one of the Three Sisters,
was endeavoring to pass the boat upon
which Sorrell was employed. A quarrel
ensued, resulting in severely injuring
the man in the manner described. No
anterior motive is given for the act,
and it is very probable that it origina-
ted from the effects of liquor.
