New YORK, September 1.-The Tim es'
Utica special says: There is great ex.
citement all day about Seymour's non
| acceptance. lie has not Withdrawn and
will not withdraw positive declination.
1t seems to be conceded that Judge
tray deliberately suppressed the dis
patch with view of procuring an ad.
Journment OF the Convention before Sew
mour's action was known, and thus com
pelllng him to carry the ticket through
the election in spite of himself, General
Faulkner had no authority for his au-
daclous falsehood in stating TO the Con
vention that Seymour waived his per.
sonal interests and accepted the pomi-
nation. 1t is plain that the Tilden man
ayers have perpetrated characteristic
traud upon Seymour, the Democratic
convention and the people at large.
seymour had no intimation of what was
gong on until late in the afternoon,
when dispatches thanking him for his
acceptance OF the nomination, began to
pour in upon him. His ANNOYANCE upon
the discovery of the trick was very great.
out he did not permit himself to be putinto
false position by the fact that the Con-
Ventlon had adjourned, leaving the party
at his mercy. He had given ample on
portunlty for the Convention to escane
from the dilemma of headless ticket
he authorized the statement sent to the
Associated Press this evening, and no
amount OF entreaty can induce him to
reconsider. He will not even permit the |
use OF his name on the ticket, because he |
believes that such an expedient would be
o blind to induce the people to elect him
to an office whose duties bis health
would not permit him to discharge.
very general indignation is felt here
among the friends OF Seymour at the
manner In which his wishes have been
trlhed with aud disregarded. is spoken
OF as one OF Tilden's tricks to sacrifice
others to strengthen bimself. The feel
ing Is that the whole moral effect of the
Convention is broken, and hopelessly
weakened by this contemplate fiasco.
It's now generally expected that Dorsoh-
elmer will secure the first place on the
ticket. and that this expedient twas
adopted to give him promotion which
the Convention wonld never have ac.
corded to him. 1t should be added that
oeymour's health is SO seriously i'm
pared that 1t would be simply impossible
Tor MIN to enter into the canvass or
serve as Governor.
Secretary Cameron and General Sher-
man are going soon to the West to in.
'pect the Fort Leavenworth prison and
various other military posts, including
California.
