It is very amusing to read in the
New York journals how the Western
delegates took the nomination of Sey
mour. It seems that the centre of
interest was fie Fifth Avenue Hotel,
where the Pcndletonians hung out
From the different accounts of the
Reporters, we learn that the frank,
outspoken and manly representatives
of the northwestern democrats, who
from the first had entertained an in
stinctive apprehension of the wiles of
Tnmmanv Ilall and the Manhattan
Club, an J had looked on all the splen
dors and B-eiruileinents oi tne met
ropolw as so many allurements and
snares were sulky, dissatisfied nd
humiliated at the result. It only
needed the presence of a New York
Democrat to excite tnem to express
their. sentiments in terms winch lost
in elegance and gained in force as the
nitrht advanced and as the bowls of
consolation had a more manifest effect.
One of the Iowa delegates, or re
markable fluency of speech, and in i
state of pleasant exhilaration, gather
cd crowds around him wherever he
went. He said that when the Iowa
member of the National Committee
returned from the meeting at which
Xew York was selected as the place
for holding the convention, he told
him: -'I can predict exactly what the
result of this will be. The North west
ern delegates will tike the long and
dustv ride to New York, and find the
ManWtm Club ready to welcome
then with the most exquisite courtesy
TheManhattaners and theTammany
ites will dine them and wine them;
take them to the Park, to the 'Black
Crook' or the 'White Fawn' or Hump-
ty Dumpty,' and swallow them
whole."
Stanging near the epoaker was an
immense good naturedOhio man, who
was swaying about either from over
excitement or some- other cause, and
strove inarticulately to express his
assent to the speaker's views of New
York politicians. To the Buckeye
the Iowa orator turns and says, good
humoredly: "Ohio, let's you and I
come down here and see if we can
learn how to make money without
working for it.. After we've been
here six months we'll go back to our
States and teach the Buckeye and
Hawkeves how to run Conventions."
To which Oldo replies: 'iThese York
ers think all of us west of the Alleyh
anies are suckers." The Fendietou
iaus around sorrowfully assent, as
though they felt that this was a correct
judgment.
The same speaker in another crowd
begins to mildly doubt Seymour's
success, but soon has a hornet's nest
around him, and is "bluffed" dyared
shirtcd representative of the Sixth
ward, who offers to bet $500 on his
"Seymour. The Iowan laoks at the
Sixth warder, suggests that he has
not the appearance of a moneyed man,
and declines to bet with irresponsible
persons, but extricates himself from
the effects of the damaging confession
by exteniorizing a highllown eulogy
of New York's "favorite son," con
cluding with the sad reflection that
in tlie-e degenerate daj-s so great tal
ents and such brilliant virtues couiJ
not be appreciated, aud by expressing
his kar that Seymour, like Webster
and Clay, will lor this reason fall short
of the Presidency. '
In the hotel another disappointed
delegate, from Ohio, made himself
almost as prominent a.s the lowan.
A short, lean, sallow-complexioned,
intense looking man, justeuough tor
mented with cornjuice to be sadly
earnest and entirely unreserved, the
crest fallen man held forth by the hour
to an attentive crowd. His words of
earnestness aud truth. -
The Ohio dclegationand the other
Northwestern delegations came to
New York he said, presenting the
name of George II. Pendleton as their
unanimous choice, in good faith, and
expecting to be met with good faith.
Mr. Pendleton was the candidate, not
of the politicians, but of the people,
and the delegates who gave him up,
basely betrayed the people. They
have been bought since they came
here.
No matter what the price was-whether
it was five cents or five hundred
thousand dollars -the New Yorkers
had the money and paid it. These men
have got their reward ; but let them
meet their constituents! The Indiana
men who went for Hendricks, know
ing that he was used a;? a catspaw,
will have a nice time when they get
home; and the Missourians will get
coats of tar and feathers. Hendricks
has killed himself eternally. He
won't be Governor. He never will be
Senator again, and he can't get elected
constable by the party he has sold.
"We have been tricked and cheated
at every turn, and go home -with sad
hearts.'' "But," says a New York
Democrat, "some of tis had to give up
our preferences, and you Ohio men
ought to vield cheerfully to the will of
majority.'" "Well," says Ohio "that's
so, but "its a hard case. I shall sup
port Seymour, hut I can't work for him
as I would for the choice of the mass
of the democracy, George II. Tendle
ton." Andsothe Ohio man deject
edly ran on, more in sorrow than in
anger, varying his denudations of
New York schemes and northwest
ern dues and traitors, but adhering
to the mouriilul theme with
pertinacity.

: ' Jefferson City, July 1G.
The Radical State Convention eff
ected a iwrmanent organization at 1
o'clock by the election of Samuel Hays,
of Jluchanaa, county, as President.
The platform adopted is in substance
as follows: It indorses the Chicago
platform : '. thanks the Democratic
party for laying bare their treasonable
designs , advocates the payment
of the national debt according to
the tearrus upon which it was
created; characterizes as unjust any
disfragchisement on account of color:
favors the adoption of the Constitut
ional Amendment striking the word
white from the State Constitution ;
deems disfranchisement as having
been necessary, but promises a restora
tion to political rights at some future
day, ami concludes with a flattering
resume of Radical financiering, and
a recommeudation that id future none
but men of established character and
honesty be nominated for office. The
nominations were as follows: For
Governor, Col. McClurg; Lieutenant
Govenor, E. O. Stanard; Secret iry
of State, Francis Rodman ; Treasurer,
Win. Q. Dalmeger; Auditor Gen. Dan,
M. Drapper; Register of Lands, Jo

ace R. Johnson ; for Supreme Bench,
David Wagnor, Philemore Bliss, and
Henry A. Clover.
TirE other day an old soldier who
lost an arm said: "I am waiting to
see if the people of this country are
going to elect Horatio Seymour, and
if they do I will swear that. I lost my
arm in a threshing machine, not in
defense of my country."

Tlie Pis or Pup Platform
Wiicli is it!
The following story will be apprecia
ted bv every man who will analize
the platform of the Democratic party,
recently adopted at New York.
Some years ago a gentleman lived
a few miles from Louisville, Kentucky,
who had a fine breed of dogs. A
friend living about five miles from
himsecured the promise of a pup from
him when old enough to be taken
from the mother.
When the time came the donor
wrote a letter of qreseutation, and
causing one of his negroes to place the
pup in a bag, gave him the letter and
ordered him to take the letter and pup
to Mr. . The negro shouldered the
bag and trudged along until he came
to a grocery on the road side, about
half way to his destination, at the
door of which sat a half dozen of young
men who knew the negro "and his
weak points. Hailing him they asked
him what he had in his bag, and
where he was taking it,
The negro, unsuspicious of evil, told
them all a bout it, on which they told
him to come in and get a drink. Noth
ing loth, he set his bag outside of the
door and went in and drank, and,
whilst some of the party kept him in
conversation inside, others of them
stole tlie pup and substituted a pig in
place of it. Aftcrdrinking, the negro
came out and shouldered his bag,
unconscious of the change, and pro
ceeded to his destination. Arriving
there he sent the letter to" the gentle
man to whom it was directed, who,
glad to have his present, gave orders
to admit the bearer. When brought
in to his presence he told the negro
to get him out. The negro did so :
when piggy appeared; the negro, all
astonishment, declared it was just as
mastersent it. The gentleman, think
ing himself insulted, wrote a very in
dignant letter to the donor, and, ord
ering the negro to take his pig back,
gave him the letter for his master.
The negro again proceeded on his
way, until he came to the grocery,
where the same crowd still stopped
On observing him they hailed him,
to know why he was bringing back
his pup ; the negro told them the rea
son, and they again asked him in to
drink, and while hewasdoingso they
substituted the pup for the pig. Aftef
drinking, the negro went on his way
with his burden, and arriving at home
gave his master the gentl man's let
ter. The master was astonished at its
contents, and ordered the bag to be
emptied, when lo and behold there
was the pup! The negro, in amaze,
raised both hands, and cried out,
"'Fore God, .master, he am pig or
pup,, just as he please."
Now, let any honest man read the
platform, and if the pig or pup plat
form is not the true name of it, then
it will be hard to undone for it. St.
Louis Democrat.
The Democratic party proposes to
run the Presidential race with a three
legged horse. Seymour is the "bloat
ed bondholders" candidate. Blair is
the candidate of the revolutionists.
Their platform is the candidate of the
repudiationists. Detroit Post.

Orators and Statesmen.
. It is a3 absurd' to confound "states
manship with eloquence as to mistake
the talent to persuade for the ability to
command. Persuasion is not govern
ment, and those who have excelled in
eloquence have often been beneath
contempt in administration. The
qualities of mind aud heart required
for oratory are largely opposed to those
involved in executive statemanship.
The orator needs fervid imagination ;
the executive, cool and unbiassed judg
ment. The former quality clothes dry
and. uninteresting facts in gorgeous
coloring, and, in part, out of the ideal
and fanciful constuets the basis for a
conclusion. The latter strips all con
clusions of their fanciful apparel, and
deals with the few simple facts which
ari the controlling elements in evry
problem. Among our representative
statesmen Franklin, Washington,
Hamilton, Jefferson, Madison, Jack
son, , Calhoun, Webster. Clav. .and
1 Lincoln only three were orators, and
iuey never t-iiaineu u cseeuuvc posi
tions. Among our ' representative
orators Otis, Ames, Patrick Henry,
Randolph, Calhoun, Webster, Clay,
Corwin, Everett, Choate, and Wen
dell -Phillips not one has ever been
selected for an executive position, and
most of them would have had the
modesty to admit their unfitness. Our
executive men have . been silent men
This is not an accident of politics,
but a necessity or business, it origi
nates in the fact that the higher the
excelence the greater the division of
labor ; or, as Spencer expressed it, the
dmerentation ot 1 unctions. To argue
is one thing ; to decide, another. To
talk is one trade : to act is a very diff
erent one.
In Europe, to-day, the silent, mum
bling Napoleon reigns, while the
Wizard of Eloquence, Kossuth, en
aoweu witn as noble blood and sur
rounded at one time by as great oppor
tunities, is an exile and a failure.
Garibaldi, an orator and revolutionist,
has built up power for others, but has
retained none for himself, lhe Ciesars,
Napoleons, Peter of Russia, William of
Orange, Cromwell, v aslungton, and
nearly all founders of dynasties or
great administrators, have been tacit
urn. The Dcmostheneses, Ciceros,
Brutuses, Burkes, and Sheridans have
neither founded dynasties nor wielded
executive power. lo those, thereiore,
who argue that Grant cannot declaim

safely reply that Disraeli and Glad

Drunkenness as a Disease.
Dr. Pariish, of the Media Asjdum
for Inebriates, in Delaware county,
Penn., delivered an interesting lect
ure in West Chester, on Tuesday even
ing of last week, upon "Habit and its
Laws." We learn that the leading
topic of the lecture was the habit of
intemperance, and the question was
argued more trom a pnj-sicai man a
moral standpoint. The doctor main
tained that drunkenness is a disease,
and its victime can no more help it
than thev can help an attack of the
cholera, yellow fever, or consumption.
This disease may be ncrcditary, may
be implanted by the mother in ad
ministering remedies to her infant.
or may be acquired as other diseases
are, through" improper diet, etc. The
doctor was decidedly down on tm;
profession for prescribing so much
alcohol in many of their remedies.
great error of the cay is the man
ner in which the disease of intemper
ance is treated. It has become tlie
very bad habit to denounce it as a
crime, to rate it among the vices, and
consequently its unfortunate victims
are cut olTfroru the care and sympathy
they deserve and stand so mucn in
need of, and are looked upon only as
meriting punishment for their crime.
This is all wrong. When the great
fmblic when temperance reformers
ook upon drunkenness in its proper
light when tlie same provision is
made for its thirty thousand victims
in Pennsylvania that is made for the
blind, the crazy, or tne poor wnen
the drunkard is takeu by the hand,
encouraged, sympathized with, and
is made to feel that he is suffering
with a disease, and is not a criminal
in the eves of the moral world, an
imnortanfc sron .w ill be taken in the
true pathway to temperance reform.
Some one has recalled the pet verse
iri the "New Gospel of Peace -"And
now of the Pah dees he was called Sey
mour, because he could Saymore and
mane less than any other man nvinV'
JULY 23, 1868.
"Occasional," in a letter to the
Washington Clironicle, concerning the
New York convention says,
The coincidences of the convention
begin before the rebellion. It is note
worthy how few of the genuine friends
of Douglas are among the delegates,
outside of Illinois. The presence of
tlie two Eiglers John or California
and William of Pennsylvania, of
George W. Woodward, chairman of
the Pennsylvania delegation ; of Ho
ratio Seymour and Sanford E. Church
of New York, of Voorhees and Nib
lack of Indiana, of Henry Clay Dean
of Iowa, and thousands who "helped
in the sacrifice of that great leader in
lSGf), is perhaps the best assurance that
could be given that the body of his
friends are now identified with the
Republican party. No acknowledged
Douglas Democrat is here from Penn
sylvania. Hon. John Cessna, who
manfully struggled for him eight years
ago as a delegate t Charleston and
Baltimore, w ;. . ' v7',:!-on ,
to Chicago one mouth
ii. L.
Cake, who prnited a Douglas paper at
Pottsville in 1S00, is now the able Re-
Eublican Congressman from Schuyl
ill and Lebanon ; General Lilly, who
led the Douglas Democracy or the
Tenth Legion in the same year, was
a Republican delegate to Chicago in
May ; General John W. Geary, who
carried out the Douglas doctrine as
Governor of Kansas, after Recder was
betrayed, is now the Republican Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania. The Demo
cracy of Pennsylvania is represented
to-day by the rank proscriptionist3
who sustained the Lecompton and
English infamies in ISoS and 1Sj9, and
then set the precedent for secesion by
breaking up the Democratic National
Convention in 1SG0.
Colonel George W. McCook, an
honest friend of Douglas, is chairman
of the Ohio delegation ; but he is the
leader of those who are sworn to sup
port Pendleton, the sympathizer with
that rebellion denounced by Douglas
every hour he lived after Sumter fell.
The head of the Delaware delegation
is Senator James A. Bayard, "the
Great Seceder," having left tbe regular
Democratic Convention at Charleston
in 1860, and then, having joined the
seceders, seceded from them.
The head of the Indiana delegation is
the well known Graham N Fitch, Sen
ator in the war upon Douglas. When
it was found that Douglas'could neith
er be coaxed nor bought, Fitch was
put forth to bully him, and his violent
speech will ever be remembered, not
only lor tlie indignation it excited
among patriotic men, but for the joy
it gave to the present rebel leaders.
His son, then in Illinois, joined the
enemies of Douglas in that fetate, and
is now Johnson's Attorney. General
in Georgia, and a furious enemy of the
Republican party. I suppose the son
is also among the delegates.
From the South, the delegates were
nearly all original rebels, and of course
enemies of Douglas. Curious to sav,
most of these men are disfranchised
lor their treason, and,, though eager
to make an American candidate for
President, have heretofore freely de
clared that they are no longer citizens
of the United States.
TForli for Women.
Here i3 a solution of a question
which troubles some people very
much. We sav a solution we mean
an illustration helping to a solution.
It is by the "Old Bachelor" of Har
per's Hazar, who manages to say a
good many very sensible things m a
very quiet, unallccted way. Read :
"It seems to me tnat women might
especially succeed as wood engravers,
so I went to one of the most expe
rienced and successful engravers in
the city, and consulted with him.
"Don't you see tho dimculty?" he
asked, with great kindness and in
terest.
"No," said I, ''you must instruct
me."
"Well," answered he, "I have em
ployed women here very often, and I
wish I could feel more encouraged.
But the truth is, that when a young
man comes to me and brings his work
he feels that it is his life's business
how to cut his future out of the little
blocks before him. Wife, family,
home, happiness, are all to be carved
by his hands, and he settles steadily
and earnestly to his labor, determined
to master it, and with every incite
ment spurring him on. He cannot
marry until he knows his trade. I tis
exactly the other way with the girl.
She may be as poor as the youth, and
wholly dependent upon her labor for
her living. But she teels that she will
probably be married by-and-by, and
then she must give up wood "engra
ving. So she goes on listlessly: she
has no ambition to excel ; she does not
feel that her happiness depends uion
it. She will rnarry, and then her
husband's wages will support her.
She may not say so, said the engraver,
"but she thinks so, and it spoils her
work."
Heavily Freighted, and Com
bustible. For our life, we cannot imagine how
the old Democratic ship can make
much headway this season. She has
to run over many a bar, and around
plenty of snags. The truth is, she
carries too much freight for a fast stiller.
She has Forrest and Fort Pillow aboard
Scmmes and the Alabama, Todd and
Libby Prison, Beauregard and his
letter to lifarrofe Abolitionists" Wade
Hamilton and the Black Horse Cav
alry, Buckner, Briek Pomeroy, Henry
Clay Dean, and Camp Jackson. Such
load will break the back or the
staunchest built live-oak craft, and
will sink the old Democratic hulk,
full forty fathoms deep.
It is also said that they have smug
gled aboard, and are carefully nursing
in the hold, the smouldering emlers
of secession. There is danger of fire,
then. Such materials cannot be trust
ed where there are wax or wood-works.
It will be safe to let that craft severely
alone.
Is it not cruel in Gen. Grant to de
cline doing anything to remove the
Democratic chagrin about the want, of
"enthusiasm" for him on his Western
tour? He not only does nothing to se
cure the outbreak of that "tremendous
enthusiasm" which Presidential can
didates are ordinarily so eager to stir
up, but he even gocs'so far as to take
the most direct, plain and practical
way of preventing it. He travels along
in the quickest, quietest and most un
ostentatious manner; ne makes no
display of himself: and. when local
reception committees or other public
bodies wait upon him, he requests
them, in hisprompt and effective man
ner, to permit no public manifesta
tions, but to aid him by even' means
in avoiding them. It is a high recom
mendation of Grant for the Presidency
that he has learned the art of traveling
through the country like a gentleman
rather than a - mountebank. JV. Y.

Office of the M. & M. R. A. L. )
Railroad Co.,
Canton, Mo., July 1, 1SGS. j
Editor Canton Pbess Dear Sir:
Our citizens subscribed to the capi
tol stock of the above road in lbGO,
and all who paid their subscriptions
had certificates of stock issued to
them. They, by agreement, trans
ferred this stock to the contractors, as
an inducement to them to build the
road'; and as work was stoped on ac
count of the war, the vendors, of the
iron, in New York, sold their claim
against our company, rather than at
tempt a foreclosure 6f mortgage, and
the iron was removed by military or
der. When this was done, all hope
of our successfully reviving the project
was lost to all of less hope than my
self. Hence, they cared but little
about the stock, and had perhaps lost
sight of it. I now desire that all who
are entitled to it will come to the
officers, and it will be re-issued to them
for as it now stands, it is tnv individual
1 aiso bou-rhr, at Sheriff's salo,
rotdled and franchises ; and although
the deed is t6 me, individually,it prop
erly belongs to the company, and is
and will be treated as such.
Now that Ouincv and Lewis county
have voted to aid us in building, and
upon whose action the matter has of
late been suspended, I regard the
building of this road as a fixed fact,
and that too, not far distant.
. To our friends, we will say, be pa
tient and hopeful. Building long
lines of railroad, is a big thing; anil
when mct of the means, or a large
portion, has to be drawn from the
masses, it takes time and energy, and
the people must look at it in the true
business light, that the capitol which
they put into railroads running
through their own countries, has only
changed form and purpose, and where
a country lends its credit for, say $200,
WO, that credit has to bo converted
into cash, to be spent among them,
and with it, from one to three mill
ions of foreign capital; for railroads
can not be built without money.
The subscription in Scotland county
was made on the books of the compa
ny. It is binding in law, but best of
all, is binding upon the affections of
her enterprising and intelligent popu
lation; and amid all the conflicting
roads urged upon them, they have in
variably declared in favor of this road ;
but that subscription was made when
things were ditlrent, and a change in
it is necessary for the interest of the
people of Scotland, and also for the
company, and just as soon as this
change is made, we will be ready to
close the contract for building the first
section, extending from Quincy bridge
to Memphis, sixty-five miles.
I have an offer from parties that can
do it. I shall ask the court of Scot
land to make the change referred to,
and then you may lool out for work.
Quincy, our neighboring city, of
which we all feel proud, has come up
to the full extent of the law, in giving
$100,000; for that is all she can sub
scribe to any one road without a spe
cial act of the Legislature of Illinois;
and but for that, she would just as
readily have voted -00,000, or more.
Quincvites have tried going in debt
for railroads, and found that her debt
has watered and nurtured her growth :
and the building of this road opens up
to her enterprise one of the largest,
finest and most beautiful countries
ever sought after by any city. LaG ra
nge and Canton, two young and thri
ving cities, will grow up from the trade
of this beautiful country, and give out
as feeders to Quincy, that she may
continue it on to her rival neighbors,
Chicago and St. Louis.
Memphis, the county-seat of Scot
land, audone of the handsomest inland
towns in the State, with over 1,500
population, will double her population
and trade in two years, ami aid in
carrying on this reciprocity, and the
smaller towns this side, come in to
make up tlie grand total.
After stopping at Memphis long
enough to complete and put in thorugh
working order this section, a short
stride takes us to the North Missouri
Railroad, near Lancaster, only twenty-seven
miles, where we strike inex
haustible coal-fields of the finest
quality, and still a.s pretty and fertile
county as any in the State ; then on
to the Missouri river.
Next Thursday, the Board of Direc
tors will meet and put the ball in
motion.
I fear I have trespassed on your
space.
Respectfully,
H. DAVIS, President.

2d Teuton "Nine ; I know roddin

A verdant couple from the vici

and on their bridal tour visited Min

bering the sol mn promise made to tho
Justice of the Peace who, for tha
trilling sum of seventy-five cents,

Washington, July 14. The ncr
Chinese treaty oontaines Mome impor
tant provisions not indicated in last
night's dispatches. On the ether hcind
in some respects hardly warrants the
interpretition given to it by Senators
at the first and hasty reading. Tho
talk in the diplomatic gallery circio
seems to indicate, moreover, that cer
tain provisions in the first draft have
finally been omitted entirely, cr aro
reserved for supplement action. Whil j
the treaty, therefore, is not specific in
the matter of reciprocity as to articles
for exportation and importation, it Is
very broad in its provisions fur general
commercial intercourse, and is iut-. a
ded to bring China fully into the
family of civilized nations. Tho
following is furnished from what is
believed to be entirely reliable sources -as
a careful abstract of its chief pro vis
ions: The Emperor of China in the treaty
declines to cede the right of eminent
domain in any of his lands or water to
the citizens of foreign countries, but
gives them the privelege of residing
on the land and trading in certain .
waters and will protect citizens of
the United States living in his empire
from an attack by powers hco-tile t.;': r
own country. V e are not to attack
the citizens of any other count- living,
in hisdojuinions, but may defend our
selves if assailed.
Tlie Emperor reserves his right jur
isdiction over persons and property of
American citizens resident In China,
unless it is expressly ceded by treaty.
He also reserved the right to make,
regulations as to trade on his river
and in his cities, but stipulates that
they shall be made in a liberal spirit.
We give him the right to appoint con
suls to our ports. They agree that
they shall have the same privileges as
those of European nations.
The widest religious toleration Is
granted to citizens of either couniry
while residing in the other. Right of
persons to change their homes and
citizen-ship is warmly recognized,
and free migration will be encouraged.
We are to pass laws making it high- .
penal offense to bring Chinese subjects
away from China without voluntary
consent, and are to give all the protec
tion of our laws to such as coma
here to live. Citizens of cither
country migrating to the other are to
be put upon the most favorable footing
with respect to priveleges and unnu
nities. We are to join hands with the Em- '
pcror in bringing about a uniform
money standard, reciprocal priveleg 's
and advantages in the schools of each
country, a rid are pledged that no religi
ous or political tests are to be applied.
We are to allow the EiU'ror to en
ploy engineers and .skilled mri.tale
in this country wiien he gets ready to
build the railaoads and telegraphs,
and he indicates generally that 'tho
policy of exclusion from his empire is
at an end, and that he will soon set
on foot an extensive system of internal
improvements. It may be added to the foregoing
summary, that it professes to givo
some of the leading features of a trty
which was signed by Me-sr. S'var"l.
and Burlingatne, the latter of whom is
styled Envoy Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary. The treaty
was, it is rcjNjrted, laid by Mr. ,mh
mcr before ins committee this fore
noon. He Ls reported to be opposed to
some of its feature-, and will uijve
certain alterations when
for consideration.
