A SINGULAR feature of tho "acquiesce meeting on Wednesday evening was the failure to "acquiesce" or "ratify." No resolution approving the New York nom inationa was presented. agers dare to try it on

Didn't the man

SEYMOUR is a professional politician who never got beyond the partisan la byrinth of his own State. He is the first candidate ever nominated for tho Presi deacy by any considerable party, without some experience beyond the range of mere State politics.

DEMOCRACY gave BUTLER to the Re publicans. The Republicans discharge the obligation by handing the BLAIRS over to the Democracy. That, says the Cincinnati Commercial, is what may be called paying off a debt with compound interest.

A LOUISIANA letter to the New York Times says that the negroes are laboring with more regularity than formerly, and there is a fair prospect for. a large cane and cotton crop. Wonder if the whites labor with more regularity than formerly They should not depend exclusively upon the negroes.

THE most impressive chapter in the history of A. J.'s Administration will be his pardons to counterfeiters, revenue swindlers, bmnty-claim forgers, pension pirates, rebuk, and all other sorts of civil and political offenders. The only criminal he is likely not to pardon ii CALLIC0TTI whoBe politics, surprising as it may seem do not please him.

AMERICAN gentlemen in Italy are somewhat indignant because GARIBALDI refuses to see any more of them at his isluud home. He has a right to protect himself against the thousands of curious people who would call, and not hesitate to "eat him out of house and home." If his means do not permit it, he is wise in living quietly on what he may have. Besides, the world has no right to bore a man to death simply because he is great

LAST year a circular giving sixteen reasons against General GRANT'S nomination was falsely attributed to friends of Mr. COLFAX whereupon, in the newspapers of tho country, he promptly and utterly repudiated it, denouncing it as unjust and untruthful. The Democratic papers, for lack of better material, have lately revived it, and it is now running through their country press. They improve, howover, on their last year's re port by attributing it to Mr. COLFAX himself.

THE Journal, having slept on our arti^el* upon "Liberty and Progress" as exemplified in the history of the Democratic party, and finding itself quite unequal to tho task cf breaking theforco of a single one of tho damning facts therein collated, practically pleads guilty to fche indictment in evory count. As a sort of offset, however—as if truth could be cancelled by fttbohood—it concocts a column of the villainous and vulgar ravings which have been spewed out of the mouths of Sullivan county Democratic crossroads orators for the last three or four years. When it shall be deemed necessary to refute the statements- of Baron MUNCHAUSEN it will be quite time to defend the Republican party from such an attnck(?) as this.

Democratic Slang.

With the opening of the Presidential canvass there is painfully observable the old tendency to indulge in personal attacks upon rival candidates. The Democratic journals, led by the World, have thoroughly succumbed to the temptation to make political capital for themselves by abusing the Republican candidates. Haviug no other libel at hand about General GRANT, they accuse him of drunkenness, and in their dim,unintelligible gropings after wit or satire, call him PIMPSON. To intelligent mortals there is no more fun or common sense in this than in the idiotic gibberings of a harmless lunatic. Many worthy citizens are called SIMPSON, and the name conveys 110 roproacn whatever and outside of tho HorW and Terre Haute Journal ffioes there is probably no living soul who can discern anything droll in calling a man named GRAXT by the name of SIMPSON.

As vet, the Democratic writers have been quite unable to tlnd anything in COLFAX to excite their slanderous pens but, of course, they will manufacture some libel before the campaign has pro. ceeded much farther. If everything else fails, they may take it into their heads to call him BOGGS or ROBINSON, which would be a fine pendant to the SIMPSONIAN theory ot tho Wcr^ld.

THE New York Sun, an independent journal, after a careful survey of the political field, says: "The result, therefore, is, that in the North and in the South tho SEYMOUR and BLAIK ticket 13 no stronger than tho Democratic party, while in the West it is rather weakor. From this standpoint the impartial eyo will not regard the prospects of its success aa bnght, but 011 the contrary, rather gloomy."

THOMAS T. BOWIE, Governor elect of Maryland, at a Democratic meeting in Baltimore, spoke as follows concerning the bond-holders '•If there be any class of men I would sooner tax, it would bo those m6n who furnished means to carry on the most unholy, wicked and cruel war in hi.-tory. [Applause.] I would not tax them as property, because I can read upon the face of these bonds a contribution to an unholy and wicked purpose."

Democratic Voting in Sullivan. A leading Sullivan County Democrat, MURRAY BRIGOS, we believe, is the euphonious appellation by which he is known among "'his own,' taid at the Democratic acquiesco meeting on Wednesday evening: "Sullivan is a voting County our Democrats can vote early and often. We pledge from Sullivan all the votes that may be wanted to carry this District wc can supply any deficiency. If we don't get voles enough in the ball otboxes on the first day, we know how to get

Ciem in on the next day." Such is, subtsantially, the language ol the orator as reported by ten or twelve reliable men who heard him. Our reporter was engaged in writing up bis notes and did not hear the speech, but we believe the abovo is a fair and honest statement of Mr. BRIGGS' pledge. It needj comment.

Gating Dirt.

On tho 10th instant the Journal, in an allusion to our report of tho Indignation Meeting held on the evening of the 8th for the purpose of -'repudiating" and "denouncing' the Hon. D. W. VOORHEES for his alleged desertion and betrayal of PEN DI-ETON, said: "The idea of the masses ol'a party pro testing against and denouncing the action of certain "leaders" in their organization ii something new to the Radicals.

To which we replied as follows: "Yes, 'the idea of the masses' of the Democratic 'party protesting against and denouncing the action of certain (or un certain) leaders in their organization something new,' 'something' decidedly new to the Radicals' or to any ote else so 'new,' in fact, that they don't begin to believe this unprecedented 'indignation will last more than three days so'new that they believe DAN. YOORHKKS will have the last man of the 'indignant' Vigo Democracy—including those who talked so glibly (jf tar and feathers as a suitable summer suit' for DAN—cringing at his feet before the ond of this month. To be sure, he killed PENDLETON, but what of that? It was not that he loved GEORGE less, but that he loved DAN more."

But yet, mark our prediction, you'll obey your "denounced" and "repudiated leader. You'll nominate him for Con gross, if he'll lot you do it and you'll deny, by affidavits, that on tho eighth of July, 1868, "a mass meeting of the De mocracy of this city," unanimously, by rising vote, with zealous enthusiasm and with special reference to DAN. VOORHEES resolved "That we, the Democracy of Terre Haute, will not support any one of the Indiana delegates who has proved false to the sentiments of the people."

The above prophetic language was based on a thorough knowledge of the cringing, sycophantic character of the Democratic party in general, and the Terre Haute Democracy in particular. Events have fully justified our predictions. On tbe 22d inst., the same "indignant" Democracy of Terre Haute met with tho District Convention vied with each other and the rural delegates in cringing sub. missiveness to the behest of DAN. VOGR HEES. Mayor COOKERLY, who was the chief spokesman at the indignation meeting, and who denounced VOORHEES then and there so plainly that there was no possibility of mistaking his meaning Mayor COOKERLY, who, in that ndignation meeting called on all his Democratic friends to "romember tho botrayers of the 'Young'Eagle of tho West'when any cf those betrayers should want an office at their hands," this samo Mayor COOKERLY, in the District, Convention came up, under the parly lash, and ate dirt in this wise, as roported in the Democratic State organ

He (Cookerly) acknowledged himsolf disappointed in the nomination, and said he had been twitted about a certain indignation meeting. He said that meeting found no fault with the nomination, but merely disapproved of the action of the Indiana delegation. He eulogized Mr. Seymour's statesmanship, his honesty, and his ability. About that indignation meeting. People noedn't be so fast about it. Ho was at it, and wasn't ashamed to have been thero. Not a d—d bit. Are you willing to be friends—to let bygones be bygones? [Loud cheers of "Yos!" "yes!"'] Then I. am tony that ice paid $1« 40 io send that dispatch. [Uproarious laughter.] I know it cost me a dollar a?id quarter, and I had better hare spent ii for flour."

Verily "the idea of the masses of a party protesting against and denouncing the action of certain leaders is something new to the radicals!" if by "protesting against" and "denouncing" you mean begging their pardon on bended knees and nominating them for Congress.

Ulalr's letter of Acceptance. WASHINGTON, July 21. The following is a copy of Gen. Blair letter of acceptance of the Democratic nomination for Vice President, which has just beeu received General Oeorge )V. IJjrgan, Chair»ian\of the Committee of the National Democratic Convention .-

GENERAL—1take the earliest opportuity of replying to your letter notifying me of my nomination for Vieo President of the United States by the National Democratic Convention, recently held in the City of New York.

I accept, without hesitation, the nomination tendered in a manner so gratify.-* ing, and give you and the Committee my thanks for the very kind and complimentary language in which you have conveyed to me the decision of the Convention. 1 have carefully read the resolutions adopted by the Convention aud most cordially concur in every principle and sen--liment they announce. My opinions up* questions which discriminate

on all tho

the great contending parties have been freely expressed on all suitablo occasions, and I do not deem it necessary at this time to reiterate them.

Tho issues upon which the contest turns are clear and cannot be obscured or distorted by the sophistries of our adversar ries. They all resolve themselves into the old, and ever recurring struggle of a few, to absorb the political power of the nation. Thi3 effort, under evory conceivable name and disguise has always charac* terized the opponents of the Democratic party, but at no time has the attempt assumed so open and daring a shape as in this contest. The adversaries of free Constitutional Government, in defiance of the express language of the Constitution, haveerected a military despotism in ten Ptatep of the Union have taken from the President the power vested in him by the supremo law, and have deprived the Supreme Court of its jurisdiction. The right of trial by jury and that great writ of"right, the habeas corpus, tho shields of safety for every citizen, and which have descended to the United States from the earliest traditions of our ancestors:, and which our revolutionary fathers fought to Becure to their posterity forever in the fundamental chatter of our liberties, have.beeu ruthlessly trampled under foot by the fragment of a congress. W-hole States ar.d ccm^jbnities of people .of our race have been attainted, convicted, condemned and deprived of their rights as citizens, without presentment, trial, or witness, but by Congressional enactment of cx post facto laws, and in defiance of the constitutional prohibition denying to a full and loyal Congress the authority to pass any bill of attainder or ex post facto law. The same usurping authfljity substituted as electors in place of thejnen of your own race, thus illegally attainted and disfranchised, a host of ignorant negroe?, who are supported in idleness with the public money, combined together to strip tho white race of their birthright, through the management of the Freedmen's Bureau and the emissaries of con. spirators in other States. And to com» plete the oppression, the military power of the nation has been placed at their disposal in order to make this barbarism supreme. The military leader, under whose prestige this usurping Congress has taken refuge since tho condemnation of their schemes by the free people of the

North in the elections of the last year, and whom they have selected as their candi date to shield themselves from tne result of their wickness and crime, has announced his acceptance of the nomination and his willingness to maintain their usurpations over eight millions of white people at the South fixed to the earth with his bayonets, tie excl«ims, Let us have peace. "Peace reigns in Warsaw," was the announcement which hearalded the doom of the. liberties of a nation. "The Empire is peace," exclaimed Bonaparte when freedom and its doienders expired under the sharp edge of the sword. The peace to which Grant invites U9 is thepeaco of despotism and death. Those who seek to restore the Constitution by executing the will of the people, condem ning tho reconstruction act?, alaeaby pronounced in the elections of last year, and which will, I am convinced, be still more emphatically expressed by the election of the Democratic candidate as President of the United Stales, are denounced as "rev olutionists" by the partisans of this vidic tive Congress. Negro suffrage, which the popular vote of New York, New Jersey Pennsylvania,Oh o, Michigan,Connecticut and other States, has condemned as ex pressly against the letter of the Constitu tion must stand, because their Senators and Representatives have willed it. the people shall again condemn these measures by the election of the Democratic candidate for President they must not be disturbed, although decided to be uncon slitutionaly by the Suprome Cyurt, and although the President is sworn to main lain and support the Constitution. The will of a faction of Congress, re-enforced with its partisan emissaries sent to the South, and supported thero by the soldier must stmid lUf-ainst the will of the people and the decision of the Supreme Court and the solemn oath of the President to maintain and support the Constitution It is "revolutionary" to execnte the will of the people. It is "revolutionary" the President to keep inviolate his bath to sustain the Constitution. This false construction of this vital principle of our Government is the last resort of those who would away and supersede our time honored institutions. The nation will say the Constitution- must be restor ed and the will of the people again pre vail. Th9 appeal to the peaceful ballot to attain this end is not revolution. They make war andjrevolution who attempt to arrest this quiet mode of putting aside military despotism and usurpations of fragment of a Congress asserting absolute power over that benign system of regulatod liberty left us by our fathers. This must be allowed to take its course. This is the only road to peace. It will come with tho olection of the Democratic can didate, and not with the election of that model warrior whose bayonets are now at the throats of eight millions people in the South to compel them suport him as a candidate for tho Presi doncy, and to submit to the determination of an alien reco of semi-barbarous men No poversion of truth or audacity of mis' representaion can exceed that which hails this candidate in arms as an angel of peace.

I am, very respectfully, ytur most ob ediont survant, FRANK P. BLAIR

The following is frsm the Indiunapolii Journal's report of the Congressional Con vention held at tho old Court House in this city, on the 22d inst.:

MR. WM. MACK,

A r, faced, heavy chested, loud mouthed, brawling, blustering, bloviating, and illiterate butcher of Eoglish, made speech, walking to and fro on the platform like an infuriated bison in a groat moral exhibition. Ho talked about almost everything in the universe, tho most remarkable portions of his harrangue being those in which he obsequiously alluded to my Southern friends," the gentlemen from tho South in contradistinction with the men of the North and of Genorals Wade Hampton and N. B. Forrest as the be.-t gen tlemen I ever saw.'' He avowed himself able to control five hundred votes between this time and the election, and asked how many there wore in the audience who could control fen, twonty, or one hundred. A man who will insult the ntelligence of even a Democratic audience, small as it is, by such a bold, impu der.t, egotistical piece of gasconade as the statement that he has five hundred votes in his pocket, has not got sense enough to control his own suffrage intelligently.

A "MODEL MAYOR."

After this Mack came Cookerly the benign, gentle, lamb-like and hoarybearded Mayor of the city, Grafton F. Cookerly. This saintly sinner was tho Chairman of the Indignation Committee, who sent the dispatch to New York, quoted in the first part of the report, and the burden of his song was in respect tc that deliverance of an overburdened Democracy. Ho wanted no quarrol now, the thing W'liall over, and asked his audience if by-gones should be by-gones if they should all bo friends, and forget their differences? The audience replied,

Yes." and Grafton, with each particular grey hair assuming the erectile, while the tobacco juico artistically streaked his prophetic face, his official, aldermanie paunch protruding over the rostrum, exclaimed then I'm d—d sorry I spent $1G 40 for that dispatch. I'm devish sorry but I haven't anything to take back, not a d—d bit." With this burst of eloquence, so characteristic of this model Mayor, he was permitted to take his seat. It must not be omitted, however, that he acknowledged himself, for Seymour, because his wife was, whereat hearty cheers were given for Mrs. C.

THE NATIONS PRATER.

[The following poem, written by young lady of Now York for a fasfday service, first appeared in tho New York Post, August 3, 1864. Its words seem prophetic, in view of the coming election of Gen. GRANT as the next President.]

I'atber—to Thy throue ascending, List the Nation's prayer to Thee With their hearts and voices blending,
