Ho has NO Disposition for the Lieutenant

WArEnTowN, NY, Sept. 26.-Mr. Flower
has Just mailed the following letter:
"7o lie Hon. Geo. Raines, Chairman Of the
late Democratic State C0nreHtion: -'
"DEAR sIR:-Ih have learned with regret
that the convention over which you lstely
presided has seen ft to honor me, in oppo-
5ition to my well known wishes, with the
nomination for the position Of Lieutenant
Governor Of the State, on the ground that
nv nomination ls necessary to the success
Of the State ticket. While Ifully appre-
ciste tho cordial and unanimous manner
in which this nomination is rendered, and
the sincerity OF the sentiment OF the con-
yention toward me, can not think that
the SUCCESS OF the party can be in any
way endangered by the presence or a0-
sence OF the name Of any individual
upon its ticket, or that there is any
necessity for me to take upon myself the
serious duties OF a position for which l
have no inclination. 1t would be assum-
ing merit aud virtue which ] do. not
possess to believe for an instant that an
more potent to assist the party in this
matter than any other men, who are bet
ter qualified by nature and disposition Tor
the office in question. The principles OF
the Democracy, as set out In our plat
form, the splendid nominations to the
other places on the ticket, and the record
OF the party, both in the State and Nation,
will, in my opinion, carry US to victory.
Assuring you, therefore, OF my hearty
support from the ranks Of the Dsmocrocy,
/ respectfully but positively decline the
preferment rendered.

All interest in the League race is now
confined to the pending New York; Chi.
caSo series, which will settle whether the
pennant is to remain East or go West.
Chicago has lead Of two games over her
powerful antagonist, and il she wins two
out Of the impending four games, the
championship will certainly belong to her.
II New York wins the same proportion Of
games as it has been doing, q tic for first
place would result, and the deciding game
would attract more attention than has ever
been bestowed upon the national game.
The remainder OF the League teams oc-
cupy about the same relative places they
have lately held, except Philadelphia,
which has forged ahead OF Providence.
In the American contest st. Louis and
Cincinnati are securely fixed in first and
second positions, while Pittsburgh will
probably come in third under the wire.
There is very close race for fourth place,
Louisville, Athletics and Brooklyn being
in pretty close quarters. This week will
wind up the association race, and its
clubs will play exhibition games with the
League until November lst when the sea-
SON will close.

The Way of a Georgia Girl.

Philadelphia Times.
A few days ago there was to have oc-
CURED in an interior Georgia village the
wedding of sixty-six-year-old man and
0seventeen-year- old maiden. Friends of
both parties had gathered from various
places in answer to the many invitations
which had been sent out and the most
extensive and elaborate preparations We're
made at the expense of the prospective
groom, who possessed more of this
worlds goods than the ordinary mortal.
The banquet table was spread,
the parson ready to tie the knot and
anxious to take his fee, end the aged
groom himself, looking almost young in
his very best raiment, smiled at the we'll
dressed bridesmaids. The occasion need
ed only one other feature to make it
perfect one of its kind, and that was
the BRIDE
Finally she came. Clad in the raj

ment which, it is related, the prospec-
tue groom had given her, and sparkling
with the jewels that his money had
bought, she entered the room, bestowing
her smiles right and left. The groom
was singled out for an especial mark OF
favor, after which the lady asked to be
excused for a moment and went out for
the ostensible purpose of making her fin
al preparations. There was Temporal
ry hull in the festivities as she passed out
the door unattended and then the merrl-
ment-for was it not a festal occasion
broke out again. 1t was but q brief
time that she was absent and the same
happy smile was on her face when she
returned, but she returned not as she had
gone. By her side walked an even hap
pier-Iookine parsonage than she-ayoung
man, whom she introduced as her hush
and and to whom she had been married
at a neighbor's house but moment or
two before.
The feast went on with no perceptible
change except that of groOms. There
was no objection on the part of the high
souled successful lover to having his ri
val pay for his marriage banquet, and
the bride, doubtless out of pure consider
alton for the Tilted mans feelings, kind
ly kept both his dress and bridal pres
ents Nay, such was the gentleness of
her heart that when the banquet was ov-
er and dancing had begun it was the jilt-
ed lover with whom she danced last.
And he, donbtlessly approaching his
narrow escape and being truly grateful
for it, gave no sign of reSrot or sorrow.
1t was the other man, he probably reas-
Oned, upon whom the greatest trouble
had fallen, and there is no evidence to
prove that he was wrong.

This increase the taxpayers did not
like, though the Democrats showed very
conclusively that 1862 ,6S2 were for extra
ordinary expenditures, and that tho
ordinary expenses of the stnte had actually
been less the last year than in many years
previous.
The above We're some of the more
potent factors in the Democratic defeat.
Though vigorous effort was made by
Senator Sherman Mt the outset of the
campaign to drag the six months record
of the administration into the campaigu,
and though Democrats We're only too
ready to meet the issue, tho attempt was
n failure. Neither the administration Of
the public departments nor the course
pursued by President Cleveland in rela.
ton to the Federal offices played any part
| in the canvass The result cannot bt
considered unfavorlble to the admins
tration, since the election turned entirely
upon state issues, or, more correctly
speaking, upon the question of regulating
the liquor traffic.
