HORATIO SEYMOUR'S UPE.

'Sketch oC the Long and Kofel Public Career ( the Patriot State, man of Kw York. New York WoilJ.1 Goveiaor Seymour, of New York, who died last Friday night in Utica, was born at the Viibge of Pompey, Onondaga County, N. Y., Uay CI, 1810, so he was just completing h Seventy-sixth year. Having a strong, rugged Constitution. Mr. Seymour was able to endure great physical and mental strain that would tare broken down most men. In the course of his long and eventful life he often had his powers of endcrence tested to their utmost Capacity. l or nearly thirty years Horatio Seymour Occupied a ceatral iosItlon ia the Itemocratic party, fctrong. self-reliant and having all the aressiveness and courage of a leader, he commanded the respect ana admiration Of his bitterest foes. No man in the history Of American politics retired to private life after a long and honorable public career more Universally respected and beloved by the people at lare than Horatio Seymour. t During the strife of civil war Governor Seymour was cruelly and unjustly arraigned by ihe partisan Keoublican press. The distinguished Governor. In his Interview published in the World last September (which was hi? last plibtic utterance of any length), alluded to thee attacks very pleasantly. A STRONG BCT 8SOA0 PARTISAN". Time had softened their memory, perhaps, and besides a vigorous foe likes a vigorous opponent. Governor Seymour took occasion at that time to illustrate how much more a Strong partisan was inclined to be fair than a cold-blooded style of politician who voted lind derived his bein from hereditary prejudice or Pharisaical idea of saintliness. Governor Seymour unconsciously described the Mugwumps. His keen judgment told him that this cias3 of statesmen could not last T AOng. More than ten years ago Horatio Seymour jnade up his mind to retire permanently Jrompublic life. He had no further ambition to gratify and had reached a period in life when he needed rest and relaiation'from the cares of an ac tive career. On one or two occasions, particularly in the Tilden-Hayes campaign of lS7o, Mr. Seymour emerged from his retirement and put on the political harness, but it was always attended with more or le?s injurious results, physicall. to him. and of late years he abandoned puMic life altogether. In Governor Tilden took the stump lor Horatio Seymour for President, tight years later Mr. Seymour performed the same service for Mr. TilJen. Thus their political , obligations were squared. There is no question but what Governor Seymour could have received the nomination of the Iemocratir. party in H7t. that was given to Governor Tilden, if he had said the wont. He positively declined it. however, knowing that he could not stand the excitement and worry of another Presiden tial contest. HIS Gl'.EAT Itl'vVEK FOE GOOI. In Ihurlow Weed's Memoirs he quotes. President Lincoln as saviug to him on theocf 1. ti. Tr ernor Stymour has a greater power just now for good than any other man in the country. He can wheel the Democratic party into line, put down rebellion and preserve the Government. Tell him for me that if be will render this service to hia country I shall cheerfully make way for him as my successor." Jlr. Weed adds that he delivered the message and urged Mr. Seymour to accept the suggestion. It came just before Mr. Seymour was inaugurated Governor and had "all the appearance of a tempting bribe to him to sell out his party. Governor Seymour's heart Was with the I'nion cause, and hedidnt need tLts oiler to stir h:m on to do his duty. Mia Denux racy stood the test, and he refused the offer. Mr. Weed, in commenting on the refusal. deplored the fact "that 2dr. Seymour did not rise to the level of war Democrats, and thus." he continues. "Governor Seymour, a! though afterwards a candidate, never became President-" He had the satisfaction, however, of being true to his country and to his party. Ihe man who would desert the one might as easily the other. In his opening menage to the Legislature, On assuming the State Executive chair Govvernor Symour said, aruong other things: 'We shall hail as the best patriot whoever does the most for the I'nion. to whatever party he has hitherto acknowledged allegiance." HE OCmVfci ALI. HAT ,tZ AN. NM:Ti?.-. Governor Seymour lived to eee many of the Unjust imputations upon his patriotism and statesmanship withdraw n in humility. Tinte Trill eventually give to thi lofty patriot's name still greater honors when men come to Study events impartially. When Horatio Seymour was nine years Old, his parents moved t" Utic. Oneida County. The greater part of his life has been passed in and around I'tica. He was educated at the academies of Oxford and Geneva. 2ew York, and Partridge's military school at Middletown, Conn., studied law and was admitted to the bar January, l"2. Anions these admitted to the bar with Seymour was Henry Burnett. Chenango County: John V. X. Pruyn, of A'Lany: James S. Wadsworth, .Amos Dean. John McKeon and John A. Dix. Young Seymour did not have a chance to make much of a reputation as a lawyer before he was called to take charge of a large estate left him at the death of his father. Jhis withdrew him from the practice of his profession. From H'13 to H.'.D he served on the military start of Governor Marcy, and obtained frum that distinguished Governor Lis first training in politics. In H41 he was elected to the State Assembly as a Democrat, was re-elected three times, and in lr, was chosen Speaker. He retired from the Assembly to accept the nomination of his party to the Mayoralty of I'tica. He was elected by a large majority, and ia this particular his career resembles those of Cleveland and HilL All three were reform Mayors of their restective towns. HI.-i PATRIOTISM A VE?VB. In Ki) Mr. Seymour became the nominee Of his party for Governor, and was only beaten by Washington Hunt the Whig-Prohibition candidate, by a plurality of -2 votes. Two years later he was again a candidate and was elected by a plurality of 2"J,j'.i votes over the same com Deli tor. A prohibitory liquor bill passed by the Legislature in was vetoed by hin on the grord that it was Unconstitutional. He was renominated the same year. The prohibition question enlered largelv into the canvass, which was further complicated by the Know-Nothing issue and the anti-slavery agitation growing out of the repeal of the Missouri Compromise. There were four candidates for Governor. Mvroa II. Clark, the Whie and ProJabitionist, won by a plurality of 'M votes. In Governor Seymour was again elected Governor over General James 8. "Wadsworth by a majority of nearly 11,000. "vernor Seymour's inaugural message contained thee wordä: "Under no circumstances can the division of the Union be conceded. We will put forth every exertion of power; we will use every policy of concilialion; we will guarantee them every right, every consideration demanded by the Constitution ana bv the fraternal regard that jnust prevail in a common country, but we an never voluntarily consent in the break 5ngupof the Union ot these States or the Clestnutioaof the Constitution."' E'HILTO PATRIOTISM t!t WA St. Jane Secretary Stanton, by diTectioa of President Lincoln, telegraphed to Governor Seymour, asking if he could raise find forward 2U,( militia to aw ist in repell5n the tlu-eatened invasion of Maryland and Peonsylraaia by I-ee'i army, and within ihre day 2,000 soldiers were on their way Xifr ft iiriiaVux , While

troops were absent from the-8 Ute the draft , waa ordered to be coloured- in New York I City on July 22. On the ith pf July General John K. Wool, commanding the Department of the Last, addressed a letter to Governor Seymour, setting forth that the city of New York was in a defenseless condition, and asked to be furnished' with four extra companies of infantry. These companies were on their way thither when General Wool telegraphed: "Please countermand militia that is ordered to this place." The same day the draft riots began. The Governor immediately went to New York, where, on the 11th of July, Mb3, he issued two proclamations, one calling on the rioters to disperse and the other declaring: the city in a state of insurrection. He divided it into districts, which were placed under the control of military men, who were directed to organize the citizens, and three thousand stands of arms were issued to these and other organizations. Boats were chartered to convey policemen and soldiers to any point on the shores of the island where disturbances were threatened. The- Governor visited all the riotous districts in peison, and by persuasion, as well aa by judicious use of the force of his command, aided- in , quelling the disturbance. Governor Seymour's courage and decision saved a great many lives and millions ot dollars worth of property. During his term Governor Seymour commissioned more than thirteen thousand officers in the volunteer service of the United States. PAYMENT Of TÄTE BOlS IX COLOt In 1304 he addressed a message to the Legislature advocating the payment of the interest on the State bonds in gold. The refusal of the Legislature to adopt this policy greatly depreciated the value of the bonds. In August, 1304, he presided over the Democratic National Convention at Chicago, which nominated "Little Mac' for the Presidency. He also presided over the convention of 1X08, held in New York. HIS PRESIDENTIAL CASWD.VCV. Governor Seymour declinded to permit the use of his name as a candidate, but on the twenty-second ballot the Ohio delegation, to forestall a threatened movement in favor of Salmon P. Chase, cast their united vote for Horatio Seymour. Other States followed immediately and Governor Seymour was declared the unanimous choice of the convention. General Francis P. Blair, Jr., was associated on the ticket with him. At the election Seymour and Blair, re2,703,000 votes, against 3.013,11$ votes for Grant and Colfax. In spite of Grant's great military prestige and popularity, Governor Seymour carried New York by 10, 000 majority. The verdict of approval from one's neighbors is the highest tribute a public man can receive. During the late years of his life Governor Seymour lived on a large and extensively cultivated farm at Deerfield, about three miles from Utica. He was President of .the National Dairymen's Association, and has delivered many addresses before agricultural societies. Governor Seymour had a large, warm heart, and'he was always glad to receive and entertain his friends. In 1874, when the Democrats had a majority in the Legislature, Mr. Seymour absolutely declined to permit the use of his name in the Senatorial canvass. His election would, have been assured if he had consented to accept the nomination of his party, but he remained firm in his determination not to again be a candidate for public othce. and Francis Kernan was subsequently chosen. HIS KEENEST POLITICAL PAN0. Probably the keenest political disappointment Governor Seymour experienced was in the nomination of Horace Greeley by tke Democratic party in 187. Governor" Seymour's disappointment was not of a personal nature, although, according to custom and past services, he was entitled to receive the nomination. He believed, however, that the party was making a fatal mistake in taking up with Mr. Greeley. His disappointment at Greeley's nomination probably had much to do with his firm determination to keep out of public life, but at the same time it was no doubt the means of prolonging his life. When Governor Seymour withdrew permanently from public life his advice and suggestions weilded a powerful iniiuence in the councils of his party up to the time of his death. His literary publications consisted chielly of State papers and numerous addresses on agriculture and transportation. The subject of transportation interested Governor Seymour very deeply. He believed that the settlement of this question might become a more serious cause for dispute than the slavery problem. It was the one principle thing that kept the interests of the country divided made the Fast anxious for a certain class of legislation, while the West would be working for something directly opposite and the South and Pacific coast anxious for something inimical to both of these sections. The growing power of railroads and monopolies was, to Governor Seymour, a serious cause of apprehension. Unless they' were held in check he believed that they certainly would undermine the foundations of our Government. Mr. Seymour was a Democrat to the core. Everything that had a tendency to abridge the rights and liberties of the people received his strongest condemnation. HANCOCK'S GETTYSBURG WOUND

Story ot the Surgeon Who Extracted the Itullet From III Groiu. I New York World Dr. Ix)uis W. Head, ot Norristown. thus relates the circumstances of General Hancock's recovery from his wound received at Gettysburg: "I was Medical Director of the Pennsylvania Reserves, and just before November 1, 1VJ3, I came home on twenty-four hours' leave of absence. I called to see the General, who was in bed at his father's residence. I found him very much disheartened. He had grown thin", and looked pale and emaciated. He said he felt as if he was going to die, and that he had been probed and tortured to such an extent that death would be a relief. I endeavored to cheer him up, and as I was about bidding him farewell, he said: "'Good-bye, Doctor; I may never see you again.' "I had my hand on the door-knob of his chamber, when he said: 'See here. Doctor, why don't you try to get this ball out? I have had all the reputation of the country at it; now let's have some of the practical." "He was lying in the bed with his wounded limb acutely Hexed, and all the probing had been done with his leg bent at right angles. The ball had hit him just below the right proin. within an inch of the femoral artery, while he was sitting in his saddle with his legs distended. I went down to my othce for a probe with a concealed blade, and on my return Dr. Cooper and myself succeeded in straightening the limb, and placing it as near a possible in the position it was when the ball struck him. I inserted the trobe and it dropped fully eight inches into the channel and struck the ball, which was imbedded in the sharp bone which you sit upon called ihe ischium. 4,ln a week's time the General was out on crutches, and in two weeks more he attended a Masonic gathering. I forget the caliber of the bullet, but it was a big min nie ball. If it had not been removed in time a large abcess would have been formed and his failing strength would not have enabled him to pull through." Subsequently, at General Hancock's earnest solicitation. Dr. Keed was giyen a leave of absence of several weeks and returned to Norristown. where he continued in attendance on the distinguished patient as long as his services were required.

SANKTfJ-SLE EIV Death of Ex-Oorernor Seymour, ot New York.

Utica, N. Y., Feb. 12. Ei-Governor Seymour died at 10 o'clock to-niht at the residence of his 8ister,'Mrs. Roscoe Conkling. lie began to fail perceptibly at 4 o'clock thia afternoon. Shortly " afterward he rallied a little, but soon reposed into total unconsciousness. During his illness he experienced little if any physical suffering, and to-day he was wholly without pain. Mrs. Seymour, who is very ill, sat with her husband dur.ng the afternoon. Most of the time the ex-Governor rested peacefully, and his condition could only be distinguished from natural sleep by the ashen pallor of his countenance and his laboreu breathing. At 8:30 he was sinking rapidly; his pulse could scarcely be counted, and the respiration was more and more difficult. He expired without a struggle, and a peacefully as if si akin? to sleep. The beginning of Governor Seymour's physical ailments dated from a sun stroke which befel him in the summer of 197b' while he was at work -on the roada of his town as master, an office which he was wont to ay lie had asked for.
