IniuSinH.

The democrats OF New York have had
two snowy conventions this year. First
they nominated Horatio Seymoure tor
Governor. They took him because the
republicans had nominated their old W ar
Governor, Morgan. A usual Seymoure
declined. \ little ring in the convention,
however. reported tina, 3 telegram had
been received from the great decliner
going back on his former refusal. This
seemed 70 be so natural that the conver-
ton adjourned amidst great enthusiasm.
/: soon .eaked out that q trick had been
played upon the convention. and the
delegates were very mad" They
swore the Stale Committee should not
make nomination, so a new convention
was called. This convention met last
week snd nominated Comptroller Rob
insOu for Governor.
By this course OF conduct, New York i
undoubtedly lost to the democrats. They
ielt tha, Seymoure was the only
man who could defeat Morgan; so they
undertook TO force the nomination upon
him. With their present weak candidate
defeat were certain if numerous friends
OF the party had not become disafected
by the Saratoga trick. IL looks as though
