nISSnLNING VIEWS.

HoRATIo SEYMOUR has declined with
thanks the tender of a nomination for Gov
ernor of the State of New York, that came
from n committee which assumed to assert
the wish of the whole Democratic party.
And we presume that they spoke by au-
thority, for in and out of Congress, that
party now conducts its business by caucuses
and committees. 1t is very much in the
condition of merchant who has become
embarrassed aud perhaps bankrupt, and
who has made an assignment for the benefit
of his creditors, and whose estate is man
aged by assignees or trustees in its winding
up. 1t no longer trusts the people at large,
but conducts its affairs by self constituted
or narrowly delegated committees ond sub
committees without the popular advice and
consent. 1t is so here, and the same policy
seems TO prevail in the Empire State.
On the 9TH of April last a meeting Of the
Democratic wire-pullers was held at the
residence of AUGUST BELMONT, in the city
of New York and a committee was ap-
pointed to communicate with ex-GOyerlor
SEYMOUR in relation to his becoming a can
didate for the position of Governor in the
coming election. That committee consisted
of AUGUST BELMONT, AUGUSTUS ScHELL
ELIJAH WARD, Ex-Judge CoMsTocK, Lieu
tenant Governor DORsHEIMER, and Judge
SANDFoRD l.. CHURCH. The committee
with the exception of Judge CHURCH, adj
dressed a communication to Mr. SEYMOUR
expressing a sense of great danger to the
Democratic party of the State, arising out o
dissentions within itself, and appealing Il
him in pathetic terms to become the MOSES
of the Occasion-to lead its hosts out of tho
wilderness. Indeed, the committee pre-
sented the case as one of desperation, and
informed him that he alone could save tho
party by cOnsenting to become its standard
bearer in the contest
Mr., SEYMOUR has just written a reply Il
! this letter, in which he positively declines

POLITICIL NOTES.

THE wedge to split the Confederate Democratic
party-a V toe.
TIE Troy Times insolenly inqu!res whether any
one has yet heard OF sam Tildch kissing the dying
General Dix.
SOOTHING sYRur DAVIS abandoned the third party

to be a candidate for nomination, even if it
was known that such nomination would
be unanimously rendered to him. He bases
this determination of the question, so FAR as
he is concerned, upon the impaired state of
his health. This declaration on the part of
any other public man would imply an un-
alterable purpose not to be candidate, but
Mr. SEYMOUR has peculiar and very un-
certain record in regard TO such matters.
We presume, however, that this is Mr.. SEY-
MoURs ultimatum and for the reason that
he now sees the shadow Of defeat thrown
upon his party through the blunders that
have been committed by its leaders during
the past few months, and which have
greatly weakened public confidence and re-
spect Mr.. SEYMoURs health may have
something to do with shaping his present
determination, but undoubtedly the declin-
ing condition of his party has more to do
with his positive refusal to be a candidate.

DEMOCRACY AND GOVERNMENT.


The question now forced upon the people
Of this country is, Do the present managers
of the Democratic party wish our Govern
ment to continue? That there are some
Democratic politicians who are just as hon
est as some Republicans,we do not for mo-
ment doubt-just as a bucket of water
taken from the muddy Mississippi may con-
tain some as pure water as bucketful from
the pure Connecticut. 1t is long and tedious
work, though to purify it, Just so Democ-
racy, as it stands to-day, is so mixed with
mud, snags, whirlpools and trash generally
that no pure-minded and just man can for
moment endure it.
1t is very evident to the best portion of
the Democratic members of Congress that
their party has of necessity got to go either
into the management of quite different men
or go down. 1t is with pleasure we see men
like HERMAN, of New York, and BAYARD,
of Delaware, coming forward and making
their honest purposes felt, and men like
BLACKBURN aud BECK showed into the
background to make place for men who do
really love their country.
1t will not do, gentlemen, for you to at
tempt to run your party by men who have
spent ten Of the best years of their lives i'll

ocrats 10 just step forward and say: You
gentlemen, who represent the retro
grade and defunct portion Of the
Government, just step back. We believe in
government and progress. This Govern.
ment is going on, and you have blocked the
wheels long enough. 1t is just here where
the Democratic party stands to-day. a
very small portion, and growing smalle,
every day, are for progressive government
while the majority are for measures which
destroy honest government, ruinous TO thu

no power to prevent the irving of the DEM

portunity to consult with his constituents
and learn something Of the political aspect
