IIOHATIO 8EYMOR1C.
The selection of Horatio Sey
more by the Democratic Cyiiven
tion us their standard-bearer in the
great content between civil and
constitutional liberty on tho one
side, and military des}H)tisin on
the other, shows great wisdom and
good judgment. lie is a gentleman
of the hignest and purest character,
a profound statesman, and a con
sistent, devoted Democrat throughout
his wholo life. He is in the
prime of his manlv initio#.* ?.:??.
r> 11 II
great experience as an ndministra
live officer, having twice filled,
with signal nbilitv, the Executive
chair of the great empire State of
this Republic. Uis mind is highly
cultivated and enriched with all
tho stores of learning and practical
wisdom. In debate, he is able
and eloquent. Ilis manners arc
those of a polished gentleman,
warm, cordial and sincere. In
personal appearance, lie is strikingly
prepossessing and engaging.
Ilis manly form and expressive
features, are stamped with the true
nobility of nature. In purpose, he
is firm and self-reliant. As a gal
hint leader and standard bearer ol
the great Democratic party of
these United States, he cannot be
surpassed.
Governor Scymorc did not seek
the nomination, but it sought him,
amongst all tho distingnished
names which were heforo the convention.
After ballottii g two or
three days without success, his
name was presented to the convention
hv Mm r?forO C ? ~ -C rvl
...w ^,1 win. toiaic ui v^tno,
against his wishes and rctnonstrations,
and received the unanimous
vote of every State on the first bal
lot. The high honor thus tendered,
he could not refuse, but it was reluctantly
accepted, for the harmo-1
ny and success of the Democratic
party.
I feel assured that Governor Seymere
was sincere mi declining the
nomination in the first instance.?
lie was President of the convention,
and when North Carolina
voted for him, he said, with, great
earnestness, that he was not a candidate,
and would not accept the
nomination. Uonor, tie said, forbid
his doing so. When be was nom
inated by Ohio, after the withdrawal
of Pendleton, General MeCook
6tated that honor no longer
forbid bis acceptance. lie protested
again against bis nomination.
General McCook said that be
knew that Horatio Seymore did
not seek the Presidency, but that |
4l - 1* * * *
nits i resiliency sought liiin.
This expression of General Mc
Cook, may have been a little pre
mature It will bo 6ecn in November
next, whether the Presidency
seeks Governor Seyinore or
General Grant, who expressed tho
same repugnance to his nomiu*
tion by the Radicals twelve months
ago. It the American people do
siro to continue in power, the
present Radical party, there is an
end of the Republic.
QUOHOK a. MKADK.
Whilst acting as Provisional
Governor of South Carolina. I received
a letter from General Gilmore,
military commander of the
State, requesting me to meet General
Meade in Columbia. lie was
the military commander ot the At
lantic States, and stationed in the
city of Philadelphia. We had a
long interview, and it was agreed
that the military authorities should
r.o longer fake cognizance of cases
in which white persons alone were
concerned. Where negroes were
parties, they were still to retain
jurisdiction till the Legislature
could repeal the law prohibiting
colored persons troin giving testimony
in the courts, in cases in
which they were interested parties.
a r ? - 1 * *
rti or me rapiHI'M this law, the
civil courts wcro to tako jurisdiction
of all cases.
I remonstrated strongly against
tlio negro troops being scattered
over the State, and stated that they
wore every where committing outrages
on society. General Meade
saul he Could withdraw all colored
troops from tho interior of the
State, and place them in forts and
garrisons on the sea coast, where
they could do no mischief. He
expressed an earnest desire to get
rid of all nogro troops entirely, but
said it would have to bo done gradllflllv
0/? oo ^ 1 1'
j , no HUl IU UIICIIU pllUilC
sentiment at the North. During
the whole of our interview, General
Meade expressed himself in regard
to the South, in terms highly
houorable to him as an officer and '
a patriot. .1 was very favorably 1
improsted with him, and thought <
that l<e was the soul of honor and
chivalry. I did not believe it possible
for such a man to play the
cruel tyrant and oppressor of his
race and country, as he afterwards
did whilst in command of the military
district of Georgia.
lie expressed feelings of sympathy,
to me, for the South, which
groatly attached me to hiin, and
I thought him the bean ideal of
military honor. He spoke of the
battle of Gettysburg, and said the
war ought to have ended with the
retreat of General Lee into Virginia.
That all hope of Southern
Liiuf|>enuuuco was I lien gone, and
the continuance of the war was a
cruel 8ucritice of human life. I
thought to myself, that if the war
hnd then ended, General Meade,
and not General Grant, would
have been the great hero of tho
war. Ilow far this mav have in~
fiuenced his judgment, I am not
able to sav. Hut surely tho Confederate
States did a great deal of
hard fighting *?ter the battle of
Gettysburg, and were successful
ou many occasions after that.
General Meado was dressed in
full uniform, and I thought him as
tine a looking an officer a3 I bad
ever seen. I met him afterwards,
at the deuot in Plii!adfili?hhi
, . >..woled
very shabbily in citizens' clothes,
1 with an old straw hut on, and it
was linru for mo to realize that he
was the same person, whom I had
met twelvo months before ill Co i
lumbia,.dressed as a Major General
ot the United States. Lie did
not appear to be as tall by sevo al
inches, and his courtly air and
manner were gone.
The sister of General Meade
married Captain IIoyer, who died
gloriously defending the Confeder
ate flag below the city of New Orleans.
She died, and left two sons,
who were with Mr. Alfred linger,
in Columbia. General Meade
went to see them, and insisted on
, taking them with him to educate
and bring up. But Mr. linger,
though it. great poverty,could not
tolerate tho idea of giving up the
children of bis adopted son, to be
carried to the iSorth to be
brought up and educated. The
General spoko kindly of M r.
IItiger's feelings ol delicacy and
I protection on the subject, alter his
return from the visit.
mi ? -
a lie conduct of General Meade
in Georgia has taught tne to bo
lievo that very few military men
arc lit tor civil government, or can
appreciate Republican principles.

Ashes for Sweet Potatoes.
A correspondent of the Southern
Cultivator says: " I notice the
question is asked, which is the
best fertilizer or manure fv?r sweet
potatoes. From the experience I
have had, in manuring the sweet
potatoe, I must say that rotted ashes,
when properly nut on, has precedence
over all others 1 have had
anv experience with. The plan
that I adopted was to open a deep
furrow with a scooter plow, and
put in a plenty of ashes. Red out
on the ashes, and a sure crop may
be realized on the poorest soil.?
Cow penning is good?so are cotten
seed and stable manure : but,
after expei imentiug with the ash
cs, they will all he abandoned,
provided ashes can be had. I ex
experimented on as poor soil as I
had, and the result was as tine a
crop of potatoes as I ever saw on
any kind of land. Rotted ashes
is good for cotton also, and almost
any kind of vegetation. I am
convinced thcro is no better for til
> > 0 vii uiij | nili?hi luii iimn
rotted allies. So every one will
find it greatly to hi* interest to
take special care of it."

A Rkmkdy pou Ttrsr in Wiirat.
A Virginia Fanner in a communication
to t l?e Sunt hern Farm and
Home, thinks lie has found the
means of preventing the rust in
wheat, 1)}' topdressi'ig in March
with wood ashes, putting on about
12 bushels to the acre. He says
that in a season of drought i n
nearly all the wheat growing sections
of the South, whilst all his
neighbors' crops were ruined by
rust, his escaped by tho use of ash
es. He considers it an infallible
cure for tl e rust, and that he has
found it the means of preventing
ru?i in four out ot five of ins
crops. No doubt the ashes will
Ik) found a most valuable manure
for this and ?lm<?t all other crops,
and if in addition thereto, they
will prevent the mat also, it will
be more than ever desirable to
savo and eccureall that it is possihie
to roach.

Between February 13 and 16, in company

Berry, believing it had been recently made
