THE Democratic State Convention,
OF New York unanimously nominated
Mr.. Seymore for Governor, bat that
gentleman declined the nominatiop, and
now their party Is consternated to .
degree thss puts it in the position Of
almost acsual dismemSerment. That's
man Of the moral character and mental
qualification Of MIR. Seyuore should
refuse the undivided offer of the nom.-
natios of the Governorship is sad
forebodlng it is a certain foreruuner
ct overwhelming defeat.
just the definite reason for the de-
elining of the domination, is q question
OF conjecture. Perhaps Mr. Seymore
deemed his election certain, and did no:
wish to be covered into suhjecnon to
the ugIier elemen. of New York Dem
ocracy; for with all of his good quali-
ties, good blood, and learning, be is an
exceedingly weak man. So weak was
he during the Rebellion, that the Rebel
element of his party came near destroy
ing the city during his Governorship,
aud they would have done so, and hand
ed the State over to the Rebel Govern
meut at Richmond If it bad not been
for the strong arm of the National Gov
ernment. His course will turn masy
Democrats to support MIR. Morgan for
Governor OF that State.

Violated Purity.

News reaches us from Rochester of an
other horrible affair in that neighborhood. .
Outrages OF this character seem TO have be-
come so frequent Of late as TO call for the
extreme punishment of the law. A young
lady, whose name We refrain from publish
ing for the reason that she is respectfully
connected, and to save her and her parents
from shame, had been keeping company for
some time with drug clerk in Bridgewater,
Beaver county. Last week both went in a
buggy to picnic held at IrwIn's grove, near
Rochester. While there, her escort became
intoxicated, which was something unusual,
and on the way TO the home of the young
lady in Rochester he asked her to marry
him. She refused to entertain his PROPOSE
ton, saving that she could get better per-
sons than he was. The fellow then turned
the horses in an opposite direction. When
within a short distance of Beaver he again
pushed his claims, but without any encour-
agement from her, as she still persistently
refused to remply in the affirmative. He
then made threat to the effect that she
would see the day when the proposal of
marriage would be gladly accepted. He
pulled her from the buggy and violated her.
Ii was in lonely spot, and there was no
one near at hand to render the girl assist
ance. He then put her into the buggy in
an insensible condition and drove home.
Her parents were alarmed at her prolonged
absence, and imagine the horror of her
mother when daylight appeared, to discover
her daughter lying on the front stoop in an
unconscience condition and covered with
blood. Not until she restoreed to con-
sciousness did her parents learn the facts
in the case. A search was made for the
william, but he had decamped for parts un-
know. Detectives were Immediately put
upon his track, but they have not yet sue
ceeded in capturing him The girl, who is
only about sixteen years of age, has been
brought to this city and placed under the
care Of two Of our best physicians.-Pifts-

The Lost Darling.

Last Thursday, about four O'Clock, a
large, fat, red faced old lady, apparent
ly just in from the rural districts, cawe
into the captains Office of the Centen-
NAL Guard at the Main Building. She
was dressed in country style, and was
weeping as if her big heart would
break. The handsome, jovial, little
Captain H., who always looks as though
be had just come out of band box,
came forward, and in his sweetest tones
said /" My dear madam, what Is the
matter ~ After sobbing few moments
she managed to tell him her sad story.
Accompanied By her daughter and other
members Of the family she had come
in from the country on an excursion
train that morning, and about twelve
O'Clock she had missed her darling little
daughter Eva. She had hunted every
where for her, but could not find her,
and oh, she knew her little Eva was
lost, and maybe some men had carried
her off as Charley Ross had been taken
away, and again the good woman COM
menced crying. The captain told her
that he would have the guards hunt up
her child, and asked for description
of her. which the old lady gave as fol-
lows: Wore pink poplin dress with
yellow flowers on it, while Marseliles
sacque with pink sash and bows Of rib
bon of same color, straw hat trimmed
with green and red flowers, striped
stockings, black petticoat, red corset,
dark complexion, and all the young fel-
lows in the neighborhood called her a
"boss girl" The captain sent the de-
scription to the guards on duty, with
instructions to keep sharp lookout for
the gili. The old lady embraced the
captain in her joy at the prospect Of
finding her little girl. About an hour
afterwards she appeared, and with face
beaming with joy, said " bave found
her here she is" and what fairy
like form met the view! There she
stood, dressed as the old lady had
stated, S feet 10 inches tall, weighing
l65 pounds, wearing No. 9 shoes aud
No. 10 gloves, aged twenty years, low
forehead, turn-up nose, and mouth so
large that a common-sized ham sand
wich would get lost in it-and this was
the lost darling that the police were to
look out for. Not a day passes but
what number of children are reported
to the captains Office as lost, their ages
ranging from four to twenty years.

Quay, onthe Insinuating Charges
Of Mr.. Gewen.
An inquiry BY citizen of M.uch
Chunk, relative to the insinuatlng
charges Of Mr.. Gowep against Cover
nor Hsrtranft's Administr alton, is made
of Hon. NJ. 8. Quay, as follows:
Hon. M. 8. Quoy-SrR: You have
doubtless seen the outrageous charges
made against you, and the administra-
tionf Of corrupt means used in last years
election. The charges are SO gross, and
comiog from lit is alleged) q convicted
felon, they would hardly be worth while
answering; but as they have taken some
root, and responsible persons have seen
6t to give credence and publicity to
the :sIsehood, it would be we'll for you
to meet it BY prosecution, or by as pub
lie denial by stating facts.
Yours, &C., WM. LILLY.
Mauch Chunk, August %, 1876.
And is answered by Mr.. Quay, thus ::
BEAVER, Pa, Aug. rs, lS76-Dear
Sur: l AN in receipt OF your letter of
23d instant, in referance to certain
"charges made against me and the ad-
minstration, Of corrupt means used in
last years election" You allude, l
presume, to an extract from the argu-
ment of Hon. F. b. Gowen, in the case
Of Munley, recently tried in the oyer
and terminer of Schuyikill county,
which has been extensively quoted by
the Democratic press of the State, and
pointed with specific charge Of the
purchase of certain Democratic leaders
of Schuyikill for a given sum ofmoney.
Mr.. Gowen's statement is as follows:
"l have received information of meet
ings between some Of the highest Off
GERS of the State and the chief of the
murderers, at which large sums Of money
we're paid to secure the votes of this in
fernal association to turn the tide Of .
State election"
The newspaper Interpretation Of the
remark is, that l paid to John Kehoe,
John j. Slattery and Bernard Dolan,
officers Of the organization commonly
known as Mollie Maguires, twenty
three hundred dollars for the votes of
that organization at the last election.
If by "some of the highest officers
of :he State" Mr.. Gowen here intends,
myself, or any high officer" of Gov.
Hartranft's administration, his infor-
nation is false. As to the newspaper
comment it is, perhaps, sufficient to
say that have never, nor has any per-
son acting for me or with my knowl-
edge ever paid to the persons named, or
any or either of them, any sum of
money to secure the votes of any organ
ization with which they may be con-
pected. or for any other purpose what
soever.
The charges are out of the "whole
Goth" and wickedly false-no founda-
tion whatever for them so far as l, or
this department, or the State admins
tration is concerned. | au at a loss
to see why or how We should be dragged
into them, except as a party dodge to
make votes out Of such a matter, and
why Mr.. Gowen should do as he has
done, is more than l can surmIse or
say. He has been egreeluusly imposed
upon, if be is honest in his position. L
am, with much respect your obedlent
servant, NJ. S. QUAY.
