Seymour.
Chaa. B. Wilkinson, a native of Oneida,
New York, who has known Oov. Seymour
from boyhood, is the editor of the Radical
uewspaper, the St. Joseph Herald. He
thus candidly alludes to the great states
man of New York, Horatio Seymour:
“With the nominee of the Democratic
party for the responsible and honored po
sition of Chief Magistrate of the only free
Republic in the world, we have been per
sonally acquainted from our earliest in
fancy. We heard him make his first po
litical speeches, and have ever known him
as an upright cititizcn, a conscientious
Christian, but a most firm and uncom
promising adherent of the Democratic
party. As an orator —a pleasing, persua
sive public speaker he lias not an equal.
Although everything will be said against
him which human ingenuity can invent,
and the English language coin into speech,
not a Republican in the city of Utica, bis
home, will breath a suspicion upon his
. .. _ -i . . 1 •
j ui jiiiaio wtuiavi'.i , uio ui uuiiisj
and humanity in social life, his spotless
morality, or his integrity and honesty.
But his political character, his course dur
ing the war, his speeches in 1861, his
opposition to nearly all of Mr. Lincoln’s
efforts to subdue the rebellion, will be
theme of every Republican journal and
orator, not only in Utica, but throughout
the State of New York, and all over the
Union.
•‘Governor Seymour is now in the fifty
seventh year of his age, though he looks
to be ten years younger than that. Tall,
rather slender—though of late years more
fleshy thau formerly—possessed of a com
manding presence; high, broad forehead;
a keen, dark brown oye: hair almost black,
uud fallen off considerably immediately
over the temples; a fluent talker, always
speaking in the conversational style, though
often growing truly eloquent with the sub
ject he is absorbed in the discussion of.
Governor Seymour was, fifteen years ago,
and probably now is the idol of the young
Democracy of the Umpire State

From the Cairo Democrat, July 20.]
Helpless Graat—An Incident la
Ilia Life.
While Grant was in Maysvllle, Ken
tucky, lately, a crowd appeared in front
of the hotel at which he was*Iodging,
and called upon him for a speech. In
company with Hon. W. H. Wadsworth
he appeared upou the balcony and
said :
“Gentlemen: lam very glad to see
you, Jrnt you must not’ expect auy
speech from ine. I leave that with my
old schoolmate, Mr. Wadsworth.”
The New York World says that as
Grant refers to his “reeort.,” and as
this is a fair sumple of his recorded
speeches, we may presume, in the very
improbable eveut of his election to the
Presidency, his inaugural will be as
follows:
“Gentlemen : I am very glad to see
you, but you must not expect any
speech from me. 1 leave that to my
old schoolmaster, Mr. Washburne.”
This presumption is not violeut, and
no fact is more patent than that this
man of war is almost helpless. He is,
iu fact, in the hands of his friends, and
is used by them to accomplish their
own purposes. The recital of an inci
dent iu his life at Cairo—an incident
the truth of which can be established
by incontrovertible testimony—will
clearly illustrate Ibis fact. One day,
while the headquarters of General
Grant were established in this city, a
gentleman, without notice, as was his
custom, entered the General’s office.
As he stepped across the threshold :
lie heard these words: “You d—d fool,
did you sigu this paper, and without
consulting me? You will ruin every
thing: iuhI it ever you do so again,
without my permission, I will raise
h—11 in this establishment.” The
speaker was General Bawling, and he
was addressing General Grant, who sat
listening to hun with a meaning less
smile upon his luce. As Bawlins con
cluded lie tore the paper to pieces, and
threw it on the lloor. This is no
fiction, but the truth, and it shows how
completely the Radical nominee for
President is under the control of his
chief of staff. With Grant as President,
Rawlins will be the power behind the
throne greater than the throne itself,
and Washburn will be his only con
fidant and adviser.
•#*11 err are the utterances of three
noted individuals, mark their words:
Grant.—“I shall have no policy of
my own to interfere against the peo
ple.”
Andrew Jackson.—“I say again, fel
low citizens, remember the fate of an
cient Rome, and vote for no candidate
who will not tell you with the frank
ness of an independent freeman, the
principle upon which, if elected, he
will administer your government.
“That man deserves to be a slave who
would vote for a mum candidate, when
hi« liberties are at stake.”
Henry Clay.—“If my suffrage is
asked for the highest civil office of my
country, the candidate, however illus
trious nud suecessful he may he, must
present some other title than laurels,
however gloriously gathered ou the
blood-stained battle-field.”

Two Old. Sinners.
Few people have probably ever ex
pected to see the venerable Mr. Thad.
Steveus read out of the Republican
party by the scarcely less venerable
editor of the New York Tribune. We
can scarcely credit our eyes when we
see the latter undertaking to prove that
Steveus is “a tit ally for the Pendletons,
Rosses and Blairs.” The article which
contains this startling explosion is
headed “Mr. Stevens for Repudiation,”
the alleged proof whereof is his re
marks iu the late debate iu the House
on the Funding bill, wherein he indica
ted that he agreed with both the Chi
cago and New York platform as to the
mode of paying the outstanding bonds,
and was iu favor of paying the Five
twenties iu greenbacks.' Not content
with this, he said:
“If I knew that any party in this
country would go for paying in coin
that which is payable in money, thus
enhancing it one half; if I knew there
was such a platform and such a determi
nation this day on the part of any
party, I would vote for the other side,
Prank Blair and all. I would vote for
no such swindle upon the tax payers of
:he country; 1 would vote for no such
speculation in favor of the large bond
aol tiers, the luilliouiares, who took
id vantage of our folly in granting them
coin payment of interest. And I de
clare—well, it is hard to say—but if
eveu Frank Blair stood upou the plat
form paying the bonds according to
the contract, and the Republican candi
dates stood upon the platform of pay
ing bloated speculators twice the
imouut which we agreed to pay them,
then I would vote for Frank Blair, even
if a worse man than Seymour headed
the ticket. That is all I want to say.”
Mr. Ross—“The Democratic doors
ire still open, and we will take the
gentleman in.”
The Tribune loses its balance at
this, endeavors to convict Mr. Steveus
t>f inconsistency, and Bays “he is a
very old man and forgets many things.”
[t winds up with the following feroci
ous blast:
“If he wishes to swindle efficiently,
let him join the party to which swind
ling is natural—that which will gratify
by repudiation its partisan malignity
as well as its innate rascality. Mr. Ross
courteously opens the doors of the
Democratic church for his reception.
He says he will enter if the Republicans
will not help him defraud the national
creditors. That, wo tell him, they will
never do. Let him, therefore.
‘Slay not an the order af his going.
But go at onae.’ ”
The old Radical lion must have be
aAn.n Rnna.. A '» .. „ A .... Ll. 1
when the Tribune veutures to bark at
him in that way.—[Baltimore Sun.
From the Now York Express.]
Something to Think of.
The Radical leaders,—not the rank
and file of the Radical party we trust
and believe,—mean revolution in the
event of the election of Seymour and
Blair by the people of the States. They
have the power of countiug the votes
under the law, and have declared, in
advance, by the joint resolution rela
ting to this subject, what States shall
have their votes counted and what
States shall not. They will admit those
only which vote with the majority in
Congress, and exclude those which
show a preference for some other
candidate. Virginia will be thrown
out, with the votes of Mississippi and
Texas, while the votes of States like
Arkansas and Fiordia will be received.
If then, the States of Virginia, Missis
sippi and Texas vote for Seymour and
Blair, twenty-one electoral votes will
he cast for the Dcmocrtic candidates,
and these will be excluded,—but the
question returns must we, ought we,
submit to a measure so revolutionary ?
Is there not virtue enough in the peo
ple to frown upon such injustice and
compel the Radicals to count the votes
cast according to the will of the people I
and the Coustitntion of the United |
States? We hope for the best, though ;
we confess often to fear the worst. !
Senator Trumbull when the joint
resolution was before the Senate,
warned his party of the danger of ex
cluding the electoral votes of States by
act of Cougress. The consequences,
he said, might be another civil war,
and as a wise man he desired that no
such results should grow out of the
revolutionary purposes of men who
lead the Radical party.
-The bill reported from the Recon
struction Committee by Mr. Bingham, and
which the House passed by a strict party
rote, gives to the oonreutioas of the
States of Virgiuia, Mississippi and Texas
complete power over those States, and
makes it the duty of the distriot comman
ders to enforce their ediots The bill also
makes it a penal offense for any one in
laid to 8tate to vote or act as an officer of
election in the ensuing Presidential elec
tion and the President is required to pro
hibit any such proceeding.

When Georgia was pronounced de
funct, by Thad. Stevens inquest, who
hired her estate?
What went with the gold that was in
the Georgia treasury, before the surrender? j
How did it happen that all the cotton
owned by the State of Georgia, during the
wsr, was stowed on the line of Wilson’s |
and Sherman’s march, and left in ashes ?
What ex-Governor, in 1865, owned the
largest quantity of cotton in portions of
Georgia and Flordia where no cotton was
burnt ?
Did Georgia own ootton that was ship
ped to England through the blockade to
the value of $4000,000 which was placed
to the credit of the State of Georgia ?
And did he purchasers get a notice just
before the surrender, to erase '‘State of
Georgia” and insert the name of an indi
vidual, and if so, who is that individual ?
What Governor of the State of Georgia
was inaugurated s poor man and emerged
from the office one of the wealthiest men
in the State ?
Would a Governor’s salary of four
thousand dollars per annum, paid in Con
federate money, make him rich ?
What two men by the same name cap

What was done with the first? What
ought to be done with the other ?

We wish to call the attention of our readers
o the column advertisement headed “Purify ,
four Blood,” to all the articles mentioned in
t. All those afflicted by disease, or who have ,
friends suffering from sickness, should care
fully read, and we know they will derive pro- I
it (from it. It gives us much pleasure to be
ible in this manner to recommend to our peo
ple these remedies, as years of trial show
hey fully deserve. Dr. Thos. A. Hurley’s
Sarsaparilla, the Great Blood Purifier, needs
>nly to be tried to be fully appreciated. His
Sitters, (Hurley’s,) are the best and purest
tow offered for sale. For debility and loss of
ippetite no others ought to be used. Hurley's
Igue Tonic is harmless in its effect and never
ails to cure if used by directions. Try it.
\lso his Worm Candy, (Hurley’s,) cannot be
•quailed; any child will t*ke it. So it is with
L»r. Seabrook’s Soothing Syrup, the best and
tafest now offered, as no bad effects ever oc
tur from using it. Mothers try one bottle,
tod in future you will get no other. Also
l)r. Seabrook's Elixir of Pyrophosphate of

A Vegetable Compound, for the Rapid and
Permaneut Cure of
CIiIIIn and Fever, or Fever and
Ague, Dumb Ague, Intermit
tent and Remittent Fevers,
Jaundice and Enlargement
of tlie Spleen, or Ague
Cake,
Having had indubitable evidence of its
prompt and certain effects from the testimo
ny of a multitude of respectable citizens,
among whom are classed some of our best
physicians, we do not hesitate to recommend
this Preparation iu alL cases of Fever and
Ague and Chills and Fever: indeed, from the
facts in our possession of its intrinsic value,
it would not bo too much for us to State that
when the directions are strictly complied
with, we warrant a cure in every case where
it is tried. It is pleasant to the taste, and
the cheaDcst medicine in the world. There
fore, in truth, it may be declared the day is
not far distant wheu it must be appreciated
and used in every household where Foverand
Ague or Chills and Fever is found to exist.
The wonderful operation of the Texas Ton
ic Syrup in neutralizing the effects of mala
rious poison iu the human system, can only
oxplain its extraordinary agency in the
speedy, thorough and permanent cure of
Chills and Fever or Fever and Ague, and all
their kindred diseases, in whatever form of
Bilious Complaints they may make their ap
pearance.
As its name imports, it is a Tonic of rare
and medicinal virtues, composed of pure and j
harmless ingredients, and are so united as to |
form a compound alike skillful in art, beau
tiful in appearance, and can be taken with
safety to the most delicate constitutions. It
is the result of a lifetime of experience and
practice in a Southern climate, and was uev
er known to fail, even where all othe reme
dies had been tried in vain.
Those who are unacquainted with the ex
traordinary properties of this home produc
tion, manufactured from Hoots and Plants
indigenous to the soil of our “sunny South,"
(and hence adapted to the cure of Southern
climatic diseases) are respectfully referred
to the certificates of rospeeLahle citizens
whose names are embraced in a pamphlet
which accompanies each bottle; also the en

States, indicating the many thousand cures
already performed by our justly celebrated
Texas Tonic Syrup.
The reports from hundreds of Druggists,
Merchants and Dealers, from all parts of the
country, are uniform iu stating the medicine
is safe, certain aud reliable, as a substitute
for Quiuine and the poisonous compounds
heretofore generally sold, ami is rapidly
supplanting everything of this class.
As a home enterprise it especially com
mends itself to the people of this section of
the country, who are now struggling in an
effort to do away with old prejudices in favor
of foreigu produce, and may we not hope
foreign “Quack Nostrums," the proprietors
of which, in most cases, are governed by no

of the properties of Medicinal Agents, and
care nothing for our interests, except to en

My son-in-law who was with mo in the

soon found his general hoalth improved.
Dr. Gist, who has been in bad health, tried
them, and he also improved
Dr. Coffee, who has been in had health for

improved very much by the use of your Bit

wished-for effect. I ain doing a pretty large

article of the kind. I am free to confess that

ablest authors that is so certain and speedy
in its effects. On the contrary they are un
cert eain in the extreme. My object in writ
ing you is to find upon what terms I can get
the medicine directly from you. If l can get
it upon easy terms, f shall uso a great deal of
it. I am aware that the use of such articles
is contrary to the teachings and practice of a
great majority of the regular line of M. D.’s,
but I see no just cause or good sense in dis
carding a remedy which we know to be effi
cient, simply because wo may be ignorant of
its combination. For my part, I shall make
it a rule to use all and any means to alleviate
suffcriug humanity which 1 maybe able to
command—not hesitating because some one
more ingenious than myself may llavu learned
its effects first, and secured the sole right to
secure that knowledge. However, I am by
no means an advocate or supporter of the
thousands of worthless nostrums that Hood
the country, that purport to cure all manner
of disease to which human flesh is heir.

Dr. Bull—Dear Sir: My husband, Dr. C.
S. Johnson, was a skillful surgeon and physi
cian in Central New York, where he died.
At thirteen years of age he had a chronic di
arrhea and scrofula, for which I gave him
your Sarsaparilla. It Cubed Him. I have
tor ten years recommended it to many in
New York, Ohio, and Iowa, for scrofula, fe- i
ver sores, and general debility. Perfect suc
cess has attended it. The cures effected in
some cases of scrofula and fever sores were- almost
miraculous. I am very anxious for my son
to again have recourse to your Sarsaparilla.
He is fearful of getting a spurious article,
hence his writing to you for it. His wounds
were terrible, but I believe he will recover.

CHILLS & FEVER.
The proprietor of this celebrated medicine
justly claims for it a superiority over all
remedies ever offered to the public for the
softs certains speedy, and permanent cure of
Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether
of short or long standing. He refers to the
entire Western and South-western country
to bear him testimony to the truth of the as
sertion, that in no case whatever will it fail
to cure, if the directions are strictly followed
and carried out. In a great many cases a
single dose has been sufficient for a cure, anil
whole families have been cured by a single
bottle. With a perfect restoration of the gen
eral health, it is, however, prudent, and in
every case more certain to cure, if its use is
continued in smaller doses for a week or two
&fter the disease has been checked, moro es
pecially in difficult and long-standing cases.
Usually, this medicine w ill not require any
aid to Jteep the bowels in good order ; should
the patient, however, require a cathartic
medicine, after having taken three or four
Joses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL'S
VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will bo suffi
jient.

elapsed since the discoverer, (who spent a
decade in studying experiments, and perfect

it is already recognized by the most eminent
physicians in all parts of the country to be
tho most surprising and effective remedy for
certain diseases of which they have knowl

All other Compounds or Syrups of this root
have hitherto failed to command the sanction
of the Faculty, because, on being tested, they
have been found to contain noxious ingredi

Sarsaparilla, anc oftentimes injure the health
of the patient. It is not so with Hurley’s
