Seymour to be n Candidate.
CINCINNATI, juno 17.-The Commercially
Syracuse special says: Seymour has de-
cided to accept the Presidential nomina-
ton II rendered to him.
New YoRK, June 1.-THE Herald prints
an interview. with William NJ. Gwin, at the
New York Hotel, where he and ex-Gov-
ernor Irwin ~are-stopping. Gwin saidi The
delegates Of California, though I am not
n Of them, will, / know, go to the Gin
cinnati Convention as q unit to support the
nomination Of the mar whom the Conven-
ton deems most suitable. We are steady
supporters OF the unit rule, and we intend
TO adhere to it all through. But our prefer
ence is for Field, and we are supported in
our preference by Oregon and Nevada, with
very probably Colorado. Also, on Sunday
next we shall have 8 meeting at Cincinnati
and we shall then decide upon what
course shall be-. My own impression is
that we shall be able to say that these four
States are decidedly for Field. My W
conviction is that he is a political necessity
ii we are to win. / think the Democracy
never had . better chance of winning. We
must unite upon . mar who will allay all
the discordant elements of the party. Field
answers that requirement. He will carry
all Of the Southern States, unquestionsbly,
and several OF the Western, so that / do
not see that there is anything to prevent
his nomination. His Chinese decisions occa-
stoned some little trouble, more perhaps
in our own State than anywhere else.
Judge Field was compelled to decide in
accordance with the treaty. If Hayes had
not vetoed the legislation which was de-
signed to cure this Chinese immigration, we
should have had no trouble about it. There
fore as q party question this will not stand
in the way Of Fields nomination. / saw
Mr.. Tilden and had a long talk with him.
He says that as far as he is concerned his
personal relations with Fields brother
would not stand in the way with him if
Field is likely to be nominated. What
Tilden wants is for the Democratic party
to win, and l think he will sink all per-
sonal ambition, if necessary, for that pur-
pose. Tilden is pretty well convinced that
he himself cannot get the nomination. If
he did, I do not think we could win with
him, and I believe he thinks SO. Hendricks
is out OF the question. He has been run
ming fer twelve years, and has never run
into anything but defeat. I do not think
he will be thought Of. As to Bayard and
Thurman, I know that Tilden win not con-
sent to the nomination of either OF them.
He has never forgiven them for their &C.
ton in the Electoral Commission. He be-
lieves that but for them he would have
been President. Bayard's secession record
is fatal to his success in the North. Thur
man could not carry the hard money States
| because OF his financial heresies. Neither
Of these men, in other respects, are very
| eligible, and are, therefore, not to be
thought Of. Sam Randall has already
| opened a house at Cincinnati, and thinks
he can command the Tilden vote. In that
he is mistaken. I do not think Tilden's
vote will go to him. There remains Sey-
mour and Field, and I think the selection
will be narrowed down to two. Seymour,
no doubt, would be q very powerful candi-
date, but up to the very hour Of balloting
it will be uncertain whether he will accept
or not, and that will lave a very great in
fuence. The delegates will not like to run
the risk Of a ~declination, and, therefore, ]
think they will vote for a mar whom they
know will accept. That man is Field, and
in my Judgment he is the only available
man in the exigency.
Twelve Reasons why MIR. Tilden
should be Nominated.
CHICAGO, June TIA Tribute New York
special says: There has been much specu.
lation about Tilden's course at Cincinnati,
but the appeal which will be presented to
the delegates, and which can have only one
author, effectually settles the question Of
his candidacy. The appeal has been care.
fully guarded. but a copy is in hand, and
is given in full. 1t contains ~ questions,
which make these queries Whether Tiiden
was elected in 1876? whether he is not de.
jure President now? whether he was not
defrauded out Of Office by a conspiracy Z
whether the House has so declared !? wheth.
or, in this view, a Democratic Convention
can justly and consistently accept the
nomination? must not the Democratic
Convention vindicate Tilden and their own
rights by nominating him will the Dem
ocratic Convention nominate another man
than the one their platform must declare
was cheated out Of the Presidency d? will
not the Republican press justly ridicule
the illogical position Of the Democratic
Convention? What q grand opportunity
is presented to the Democrats, whose
names have been published in connection
with the candidacy. to unite in a note to
the Convention, Withdrawing their names
and presenting that Of the man whom the
people elected.
Mr.. Seymour Declines.
UTICA, N. T., June 15.-Hon. ]. Thomas

spoken Of in connection with the nomina-
ton to be made at Cincinnati next week,

any nomination to be made by that body.

used II any question should come up about
