II the State viii read again What we CO.
pied from the Norfolk Einsinit w it will see
that we reproduced the high est eompli
ments which that paper paid to Mir. BAY
ARD, but that these compliments did not al
all change the yiryiaian's decide. I deelara'
ton in favor OF Mr.. SEYMOUR. AVE- quote
again:
The two men to whom the Demo craey OF
the South look with eager and earnest ex-
peetalion are Horatio Seymour and 1 homas
+. Bayard. No man who has risen TO emf
nence in the State OF New York ever held
the confidence OF the people more nrnly
than Horatio Seymour. His name is the
rallying cry for the Democracy, ard were
he to accept the nomination he world carry
the State and be elected Presiden by On
overwhelming majority. II Is to <oe re-
gretted that lfr. Seymour andeTeSt .hraateS
his oaon physical strength, and Stedd1a Sny
refuses TO be considered any longer aH We
political arena. He Is in a far better co :ahi-
tion than Tilden, who, his friends insist, is
simply holding out against the inevitable
in the hope or securing money and ''saE-
ing bis funeral expenses" II Ar. Sey-
2n0ur saGinfGs2s has present attitude, We
have an equally noble, sagacious, honest, |
and intrepid leader in Thomas r. Bayard. |
Fearless in The expression OF bis opinions,
open and frank 10 every transaction, public
or private, beyond reproach IN bis social
and political life, man against whom even
partisan SANDER has seldom dared to aim its
shaft, he would command the undivided
Democratic vote throughout the South,
and carry Without doubt New York, New
Jersey. Delaware, and Connecticut 10 the
North. He is the beau ideal OF statesman,
and world lead II ha npmooratic marty to l.
victory, and wien elected he would see that
the will of the people was carried out by
bis ina0g uration. Norfoit Yirgtnlyg.
We understand that TO mean that the Nir-- /
giatda would prefer BAYARD as d man. but |
considers Dir. SEYMoUR for some reasons o
Inore desirable candidate.

Trial BeJore Court Martial Of capt
Thomas HIair.

The Court Martial in the case Of Capt.
Thomas Blair, Tor forgery and bigamy, is
now in session at Governors lslan'l, n. y.
General Mcmahon is counsel for blair,
and presented written protest against a
further continuance Of the trial, on the
ground that General Sherman was the ac-
cu-er against Blair, and had no right to
convene Court-martial; nor could he do
so legally, or appoint an officer Of his staff
to act a. Judge Advocate. The Judge Ad-
vocate replied at length, stating that the
real prosecutor was Mrs. Nichols, of Glas-
gov. The Court decided that the plea set
up was insufficient, aud the case must pro-
coed. Capt. Blair pleaded not guilty. Gen.
Mcmahon then applied for permission for
the accused to go to Glasgow and procure
the necessary evidence Of his innocence,
which could not he obtained otherwise
The Judge Advocate read letter address
ell by the accused to the Adiutant General,
acknowledging the copy Of unsigned char
gee, and asking for leave Of absence to go
abroad. lie also said that his marriage
with Mrs. Nichols was not a legal one, and
during the time he lived with her she was
unchaste The reception Of the letter was
objected to by counsel. Testimony was
then taken. \ batch OF letters, purport-
ing TO have been written by the accused TO
the woman in Glasgow, Ann Daley, who
claims the Captain as her husband, were
admitted as evidence. They are very dam
aging TO the accused, a. in them-if he is
indeed their writer-he speaks Of the wo-
man as his wife, and calls her two chill
dren, Rachel and Bob, his. There was
also admitted in evidence q document
which purported to be an order granting
Blairs discharge from the army. The
prosecution claim that Blair forged this
order, so as 10 mislead the Glasgow woman
rs to his whereabouts, and enable him to
marry Mrs. Maria Changer, Of Kentucky,
the widow Of his former commander Blair
admits there was a ceremony performed
over him and Ann Daley, but he claims
il was not a mrrhage, although he suisse
quently cohabited with her and became the
father Of her two children. To Offset this
claim the prosecution submitted copy Of
a marriage certificate, granted to Ann Dali
ley in 1861, on the occasion Of her marri-
age To Thomas b. Nicoll. The letters above
alluded to were signed Thomas b. NicOll,
which Is the Captains right name, but he
dropped il aud assumed his mothers, Blair,
when his father, IL il stated, disowned him
