The Disappointment of NIT. Seward.

MT. Seward was popular among his neighbors. On the day when the Chicago convention was tO ballot for presidential candidate Cayuga county poured itself Into Auburn. The streets were full, and MT Stewards house and grounds over flowed with his admirers. Flags were ready to be raised, and loaded cannon was placed at the gate, whose pillars bore mp two guardian lions. Arrangements Id been perfected for the receipt of intelli- gence with unwonted speed from the scene where the battle was proceeding. At Mir Seward s right hand just within the porch. stood his trusty henchman, Christopher Morgan.
 The rider of galloping steed dashed through the crowd with a telegram and handed it 10 Gov. Seward. He read 1t and passed il 10 Morgan; For Seward, l73i :. for Lincoln, lc3, and for other a>pirauts lsG5. Morgan repeated it Go the mul- uiude, who cheered vchemently. Then came the tidings of tine second ballot. For Seward, 1siis, for Lincoln, ISL and for others, 99i. T shall Toe nominated on the next ballot said Seward. and the throng in the house gpplauded and those on the lawn echoed the cheers. The next messenger from the telegraph office la-hed his horse into a run. The telegram read: Lincoln nominated. T. W" Seward turned pale as ashes. The sad tidiu-s crept through the vast concoursc. The flags were furled. the cannon was rolled away, and Cayuga county went home with clouded brow.-Buffllo Express

AFTER pretty general canvass of the outlying precicnts of Pima county fine inevitable conclusion is reached that tbe outside delegates will come into the re- publican county convention almost sclld for Lewis Gormiey as the candidate for sheriff. At Crittenden he will not only get the delegates, but nearly every vote boiled there this fall. This is his home and 1t IS an endorsement one has reason to feel proud of when a mans neighbors so greatly esteem him. h Nogales the sentiment Is very nearly the same, and 1t Is spontaneous one. The strong republican club of Nogsles will do good work for the party this fall and If their wishes are respected at all, MT.
