The autumn breeze is sweet although

The mountains blended in the sky
With no more lovely hue.

not to be nominated, and who does
not covet the office. Advancing age
and threatened health have cooled the
ambition he displayed many years ago,
and he is stronger among the unorgan.

man to-day, mainly because he is known
to have long since parted with political
ambition.
Horatio Seymour is the ablest and
best of our living statesmen of any
party. He has more Of the greater at
tributes of statesmanship than any of
the political leaders OF our time, and,
if his health could be assured, he would
make one of the most competent and
patriotic Chief Magistrates the country
has ever had. He has filed important
positions in his own State; has always
been the strongest man his party could
select as its standard bearer, and his
official record is singularly free from
blemish. In disregard of his earnest
protest, he was nominated for Presi-
dent in 1868, and compelled to accept
the honor but he obeyed reluctantly,
and held New York against Grant in
that memorable struggle. In 1876 he
was unanimously nominated for Cover

all their plans, and he peremptorily
declined. Whether he would accept
nomination for the Presidency now,

could answer but IL is certain that
nothing less than an imperative de-

assent. He IL the strongest of ell the

NEWSPAPER OPINION.


Frog the clinton Democrat.
A correspondent OF the CENTRE DEMO
Graf strongly urges the denomination
of Gov. Curtin as the Democratic candi-
date for Congress in this district, and
the editors of that paper endorse the
suggestion of their correspondent in
emphatic terms. That Gov. Curtin was
fairly elected by majority of legal
votes at the last election was fully prov.
ed before Congress, and he should
therefore have been awarded the seat,
but political feeling on the part OF the
Republicans and Greenpackers, together
with private resentments against some
of Curtin's leading friends in Congress,
gave the seat to Yocum. II is held now
by the immediate personal friends Of
Gov. Curtin and many other Democrats
that vindication at the next election
is due him, especially in view OF the
fact that when he ran before there was
an extraordinary combination against
him that cannot exist again and that he
was kept out of his district during the
whole campaign by the constituted
authorities of the Democratic party,
serving it in the general field of battle.
There is at least sufficient force in the
suggestion to demand the serious and
patriotic thought and attention OF every
Democrat The CENTRE DEMOCRAT also
insists that nine out of every ten Dem
ocrats in Centre county sustain its view
of the case.
Whatever the Democracy of the dis
trct may desire TO do, it is TO be hoped
they will clearly express in their county
conventions, and not fritter their voice
and their strength away in so.called
complimentary nominations. These
are always mischieyous and frequently
disastrous. The issue in behalf of Gov.
Curtin is plain one and ought to be
sauarely met. If the Democracy of
any county want to vindicate or re.nom.
and frank way. If they want to nomi
nate somebody else let them expressly
say so, and not name somebody they do
no not want, by way of compliment.
There has been enough of that baby
business--too much. When county
really has no particular preference for
candidate, it may be and no doubt is
quite proper to name some fit citizen
who has not sought the honor, as a com.
pliment. But that practice has of late
years been seriously abused by men
coming forward and soliciting the com.
pliment, begging, bargaining and coax
ing for it merely as q compliment, but
when they obtained It, TO the exclusion
of real preference, demanding the
selection of their own conferees aud
then assisting on these adhering to
them to the very last, hoping that acci.
dent, excitement, momentary anger or
resentment, or something OF that sort.
might bring about their nomination.
like lightning striking in sunshine. 1t
is against this latter batch of cheap,
low. priced demagogues that we protest.

The City Guard marched to Germania Hall on Woos- ter street, from whence the Rifle company corted them to State street, to Grand, to Franklin and State street, opposite the Dye works where the order ''route step, arms at wilr' was given, and in this way they marched to the streets where the Rifle company di- verged toward Schutzen Park and the City Guard towards the grounds of the New Ha- ven Rife Association.

The band, headed by Rufus, proceeded up College street with the freshmen marching in the rear. At the head of the street the sophs were drawn up in battle array across Ithe entire width. The band moved on the enemy's works and marched through their line, when the sophs and their friends closed in their rear and left the freshmen out in the cold. A perfect storm of apples, ancient eggs, etc., rained down and about promiscuously. Several knock downs occurred. Of course music by the band was out of the question. They managed to play one tune and were then paid $10 by the same party which hired them not to play any more that night for any one. Bedlam or Babel were no names for the noise and confusion incident to the affair. It was too hot for the band, and they dis3anded. The profs. appeared on the scene and advised CD the boys to retire, which they did, and thus ended the first disturbance of the new college year. The sophs followed the band down street, singing right merrily, and endeavored to get them (the band) to go back to the college and serenade the presi- dent on their account. It was no go, how ever. The sophs evidently had the best of the affair, as they had the advantage of prep aration and organization, while the freshmen were unprepared for it and labored under the disadvantage incident to every new elass-of not knowing their own men sufficiently to enable them to unite and concentrate their forces.''

The street in front corps of men under MT. Granniss being en- gagged in connecting the house with the water main. The work was pushed forward so that by evening it was substantially completed, but the walk was not yet laid Gas burners were in full blaze and glitter, thus displaying to the public the ample portals of the house and signifying also that this entrance was unfinished. The public entrance last even- ing was on the west side over an extemporiz- ed walk of planking, thrown oveS the stones of the yet unfinished concrete walk. MT. Shelby, manager of the company, was at the door guiding and directing the people in, and assigning those not yet supplied with tickets into the line which begeged the ticket office MT. Carll was in the vestibule giving direc- tions and having general oversight Many prominent people passing in accosted him and extended their congratulations on the fine appearance of the,house which was

AAO CdDdC10uS H1TTOTS were In place, the aisles handsomely carpet ed, the passway just inside the auditorium neatly covered also while the proscenium boxes were elegant in their drapery and hang ings of yellow silk and gold and appropriate trimmings, and the great drop curtain with it's fine center piece, statue of Cesar and its accompanying graceful sweep of Roman drapery, added much to the beau ty of the scene. The massive chandelier seemed diminished by it's giddy height, set in the ceiling directly over the para uet, but gave soft and abundant light, while many side burners on the walls aid in the ilIumina- tion of the house. Back of the stage in one of the side recesses are half dozen or more silver knobs capping various wires, which are operated to light the house by the use of electricity. Far up near the roof the coIlec- tion of little windows, half opened and bright with light, gave no indication that the even Ing zephyrs were passing in through them on to the heads of the upper gallery gods on the topmost tiers. The opening performance is elsewhere described
