THE GOVERNOR"

INTRODUCING A CANDIDATE WITH SOME RE-
MARKABLE vrEws-wHAr THE PEOPLE OF
NEW YORK MAY HAVE BY VOTING FOR IT.
Hold on bit. There's another candidate for Gov.
ernor who has not been serenaded. man to fortune
and to fame unknown. but a. far removed from mel
ancholy as q bottle OF soda. His name is August
Quesse. according to the best available data. lie
pronounces the first "Aowgoost" and spells the
second "Coo-ou-e-s-s-e." Among his constituents
he IL known as "the Governor" but
whether he earned the distinction by .
residence in the SOUTH brought it with him from
Germany. not even his barber say with certainty.
During election times he is frequent visitor to tho
HERALD Office. and swears to make this journal his
pet and particular organ when elevated to the Ex
ecutive chair. For season after each defeat he
bids the world farewell-hives himself somewhere in
tho region OF Melrose-and turns up at the
next contest as full Of energy ever. Like "tother
guv'nor'' of Gramercy Park, candidate has q
weakness for delay. and declares himself early
enough, though he has been candidate ever since
he came to TINS country and saw how villanously
public affairs were conducted. You wouldn't suppose
he was politician, judging from external appear
ances he never saps man on the back. or squcezes
his hand twice. He reminds one of a corn doctor,
preserved from the time when New York was colony
OF Amsterdam. In point of size "the Governor is
not much bigger than schooner Of his national
beverage anu several times smaller than somo
of those painted on the outside OF Bowery
ShoOns. LIS iuco IL inc DlanucSt ever scenl
with blue eyes set In IN many directions
there are points Of observation and with
grim expression about the little wrinkled mouth.
Gold rings ornament his ears. ana on his regular
independent nose are balanced pair of spectacles
ancient as the invention itself. His clothes would
fit M ordinary boy OF twelve. his hat is like Qua
kers. and he carries blue umbrella In his pere-
grinations without the sighost concern aoout
weather predictions.
CHAT ABOUT THE FUTURE.
''The Governor" called at the HERALD Office yes

crease their wages to ten. He knew of some folks
in Baxter street vino poor they had to steal.

quarters during the past four i've
