the temptation was so great that he took It.

Washington, June lin anticipation of

Cincinnati the party managers are assembling
here, among them Senator Barnum, of Con-
necticut. A consultation was held to-day in
the Speaker room at which Speaker Randall,
hartman Atkins and Mr.. Barnum were pres
emit Mr. Barnum indicated that he had Just
lett MIR. Tilden, and that he could state that
the nomination of MIR. Seymour would not
be antagonized; that while Mr.. Tilden him
self was candidate, if it should be deemed
expedlent to nominate Mr.. seymour there
would be no opposition from the friends of
MIR. Tilden. 1t was also stated that since
the nomination Of General Garfield Mr.
Tendon felt deeper interest in the success of
the Democratic party than ever; that General
Garfield was member of the Electoral Com
mission which deprived him of the Presiden-
tlal office to which he was entitled, and he
would support any arrangement which would
compass his defeat; that If at the meeting
of the delegates who would represent the
sentiment of the party in all parts of the
country, il should be indicated that Mr..
Seymour was the choice of the Democratic
party in preference to himself, he would
favor his nomina ion. In speaking of the
Vice Presidency, Mr. Barnum intimated that
VI. Tilden favored the selection OF Senator
Davis, oflllinos, for the secon place on the
ticket, as he felt confident it would add
strength to the ticket in Illinois and the

on last Saturday, cast Il shadow of gloom
over the entire city. She came here in Octo-
Der last, to reside with her brother, the only
other surviving member of the family. Dur
ing the several months she has resided here
she has formed large circle of scquaint-
ances and friends, who are now stricken with
grief at her sudden and unexpected
death. On the third of this month she
accompanied Mrs. Stuart, Zone other intimate
friends) to Denison on her wedding trip, and
returned here on the 9th. She was tax n
sick the day after her return with typhoid
fever and died Saturday evening at 8 p. m,
after an illness of but one weeks duration.
We have inadvertently pronounced her dead.
True, they have placed her mortal remains in
the tomb and her ashes are mingling with the
dust from which they arose; but she is not
dead. There has been change, yet it has
been one in which but the grossness of earth
life has been swept away, leaving only the in

higher and purer life to commune with us
