By command of Brevet Major-General En. R. S. CANDY. LOUIS V. C AZI ARC, Aid-de-Camp, Acting Assistant Adjutant-General. ct ]sj0T Ttir SEASON FOR COONS/'-A spicy correspondent of the Louisville Jbvrria?. hailing from Te;;3?, presents the following quite inimitable apologue: I have a neighbor, who owus a big dog. He is a strong dog, an active dog. but oh, what a mean dog! He sucks all the egss nn thc place, cats the young chickens, gets into the cellar and laps hp all the milk and licks up all the butter, snaps at thc children, and is a pest in general. The good wife wa^its him killed, but thft husband objects on account of one quality-he is a good coon dog. The wife says there are no coons in the coun try ; besides, it isn't the season for coons. Let the Radicals make the application. The big dog of the Presidency should be something more than a mere coon dog. So far as the personality of Grant is an element in the struggle of thc parties, this coon story hits the case exactly. Grant is pushed for the Presidency for no other reason than that he has been a successful General, and that is precise!) what in thc present juncture, the countn docs not need. Ju fact, we want every thing but that in the man who is to be the next, President-financial ability, di plomatic ability, knowledge of Constitu tion and law-statesmanship, in a word ; hut ability to disburse blood and treasure in the field of battle is not in requisition thank Heaven! at the present time. Now. is it not the truth- that Grant, his own claims and those of his friends being fair ly judged, is not notably the possessor of thc qualities needed? He is thc suc cessful General-the stubborn, tcnaciou. taciturn soldier. Granted. But, "there are no coons in tho country ; besides, it isn't the season for coons." THE following is said to be genuine upon that prince of good fellows and gu^d officers, the last Chief Quartermaster of the Army of Tennessee: M Booh-ooh oo-booh oo !" said the man cow, as he was foraging in our Quar termaster's haystack on one dark, cold night." " Booh-ooh oo." "There's that infernal bull again," said the Major, who had just turned into a comfortable bed. Not a rail within five miles to make a pen, and these everlasting cattle eating up my hay every night. I shot at that brindle rascal last night, and here he is again. I'll try him a little closer this time." The Major was jolly and fat, and hated to get up dreadfully, and we boys knew it. We owed him one for past offenses, and, waiting patiently for him to turn in on his bunk, Charley Lewis was deputed to go behind thc hay-pile and play man cow. The rest of us eaves-dropped the Major's tent to enjoy his exclamations of good-natured "vrath. " Booh-ooh-oh !" went the man-cow. The Major soon had on his boots and overcoat, and, with re peater in hand, he sallied forth cautiously toward the hay. One of the boys had slipped ahead .and notified Charley of his coming. Ho buried himself in the hay and was silent as death. The Major crept slowly and .carefully np, nnd after diligent survey found no man-cow in sight. Disappointed, he returned to his tent, and discarding his overcoat and hoots, went grumbling to bed. He had hardly blown out his candle before closer and louder went the man-cow-" Booh ooh-oo!" "Tuc infernal scoundrel!" said the Major ; u lhere he is again. Where in the dickens was lift hid ? I'll bet he went off and has brought, fifty ? cows back with him." " Booh ooh-oo !" ; went the man-cow. " I'll try him again. Blamed if I don't shoot him six times i before I stop." He bounced up, and was '. soon making for the hay-pile with a cock- ] ?d pistol in hand. All was still again- s lot a note nor a tramp-not a cow to be s <ccn. Thc Major took a wider circuit- i ninted all the surroundings carefully. ( We could hear him shiver with cold as t ie retraced his disappointed steps. As ( ie got ready to turn in we heard him ? :ay: " Well, if that ain't the darndest 1 )ull I ever saw ! 1 reckon, though, he's I ;one clean off." " Booh-Ooh-oo !" said j ( he man-cow. Just then Twas peeping I it th? Major through a hole in his tent a ?loth, Despair and anger were badly - g nixed in his countenance. He made use >f language freely, and pulling the cover >ver him, finished his remarks with: l\Now eat away, and be durn'd to you!" AV ty didn't diire to tell him of the trick oV a week, and to this day he says he Delieves it was a bull. The Democratic Nominees, HORATIO SRYMOUR. The people's candidate for the Presi Jency at the next election is a native of Utica, New York. His father, who was jue of the earlier inhabitants of that city, md a native of Middlebury, Vermont, was one of the most distinguished citizens af Central New York, and at the time of Iiis death, which occurred about thirty five years*ago, held, the office .of Canal Lttmmtesibii?r. Horatio Seymour, after receiving a liberal education, studied the law, and was ad milted tu the bur. Being possess-, ed of an ample fortune, and having em barked aban early age in that career in which he has been so successful and so justly popular, he never practiced his profession. As a very young man lie was the acknowledged favourite of the young Democracy of New York. His pure and spotless character, his sound judgment, and his (Jue oratorial powers rendered him, thirty years ago, by far the most conspicuous of the younger members of th? Democratic parly of the Empire Stale. In lNf>0V Mr. Seymour was elected Governor of New York by a small ma jority, over Governor Washington Hunt. In 1852, he was re-elected by a majority of over twenty thousand. Jn 180*2. he was again elected td the same high oflico, his term expiring in January, 1S05 He was,, (therefore, Governor of New York fprlti?Lpf the most important years, of thje typ<pbivil war; and it is a matter of record that he cordially co operated with Mr. Lincoln's administration in all just ir^eatfures for the vigorous prosecution of the-war, and received the thanks of Mr. Lincoln for his exertions a short time previous to the death of. the latter. Governor Seymour is about fifty-six years of age. His wife, a daughter of ,lhe late John R. Bl eec ker, of Albany, is universally admired for lier intelligence, loveliness of character, and elegant man ners. They have no children. Of Mr. Seymour's three sisters, one married Led yard Sinclair, of Casenovia; another Mr. tonnard, of Westchester; and another, s Hon. Roscoe Conkling, United States Senator from New York. Governor Seymour's speeches on sub jects of great public interest during ihe la*t three cr four years have been uni versally read, and have secured for him a national reputation. It is not extrava gant to state that few speeches of the present day have made a deeper impres sion on the public mind than those of Governor Seymour. If elected io the Presidency-ns he undoubtedly will be,-by an overwhelming majority-he will bring to the Presiden tial ornee talents equalled by but few of of Iiis predecessors. In .patriotism and purity ol' character he will .-not suffer by a comparison with the brightest names in American history.. FRANOIS PRESTON ei.Aia, JR. The Nominee for the office of Vice Pr?sident pf the United States by the National Democratic Convention was born in the town of Lexington, Kentucky, February 10, 1821, and is now in his forty-eight year. In his twentieth year he graduated at Princeton College, and removed to St. Louis, Missouri, and there bi'gan the study of law, in which profes-. sion he made rapid progress. In 1845, being then in his twenty-fifth year, he made a journey to the Rocky Mountains with a party of trappers for the improve mentof his health, which had failed some what owing to close pursuit of his stu dies; and on the breaking out of the Mexican war, Blair joined the forces un der Kearuy and the .gallant Doniphan, in New Mexico, and served as a private sol fier until 1847, when he returned to St. Louis and resumed the practice of his pro fession. In 1848. like his father, Francis P. Blair, Sr., he gave his support to the Free Soil party, and, in a speech deliv ered at the court, house in St. Louis, con tended against the extension of slavery into the Territories of the nation. In 1852 he was elected from St. Louis coun ty, Missouri, to the Legislature, - as an iivowed Free Soiler, and he was re-eleoted in 1854, though Thomas II. Benton^thc Congressional candidate of the Free Boil ers, was beaten. In 1850 Mr. Blair was returned to Congress from the St. Louis district, over Mr. Kennett, who had de feated Col. Benton two years before. In 1857 he delivered an elaborate speech in the House of Representatives, in favor of colonizing the black population of the United States in Central America. Mr. Blair was also an editor and writer on the Mississippi Democrat at one time. The father of Gen. Blair was a firm and fast friend of Andrew Jackson; thc Gen eral, when a child, was wont to play on the knees of Andrew Jackson in the White House. His father was at that time editor of the Globe, in Washington. In 1S00, Mr. Blair contested the seat in Congress 'of Mr. Barrett, from the St. Louis district, and soon after was returned to the House, after which he resigned his seat. Jn 1800 Gen, Blair made a speeeh in Brooklyn, in favor of Mr. Lincoln for i he Presidency, and also delivered a speech :it the Metropolitan Hotel, in New York, in June, 1801, in favor of strong war measures, hinting that General Scott was rather a slow campaigner. Mr. Blair was very assiduous m raising volunteers in St. Louis, and was the first volunteer >f the State of Missouri. He raised the lirst regiment of Missouri volunteers, and tcted as its Colonel, albeit he did not hold i commission as Colonel of the regimen!. A difficulty .arose between Colonel Blair ind Gen. Fremont, and Col. Blair was unjustly placed under arrest by that jflicer, who was commander of that de partment. This arbitrary measure of Sen. Fremont aroused great excitement, n St. Louis, where General Blair was miversally known and, respected, the ournals of that city taking part in the piarrel at that time. President Lincoln >rdered Colonel Blair to be released from irrest in September, 1861, thereby caus ng a great feeling of relief to the nu nerous friends of Colonel Blair in St. jouis. He was again arrested by Gen. Fremont, but finally released after con siderable trouble and newspaper discus jon by both parties. Colonel Blair apidly rose as a soldier and became one if the most skillful Generals in the Wes ern armies. On the 22d of May, 1802, General Blair commanded a division in ihermanfa attack on Vicksburg. fie ?ade farewell lo his troops July 24, 1S05. Ie. was nominated Internal Revenue Collector of Missouri in March, 1800. Tis nomination was rejected by the Sen te. His popularity in the West is very ;r?at. AMUSING SCENE IN A COURT ROOM. In the good old times m~a"W?sfern State, when .* substantial justice" Was adminis tered in a log cabin, after a very free and easy manner, a suit wa3 brought for the recovery of certain moneys, of which it was alleged the plaintiff' had been de frauded by the ingenious operation known as h thimble rigging." In the course of the trial, ?ne plaintiff's counsel, who hap pened to be an " expert," undertook tp enlighten the court as to the modus oper andi of the performance. Putting him self into a position, he produced the three cups and " the little joker,".and proceed ed, suiting the action to the word : " Then may it please the court, the de fendant, placing the cups upon his knees thus, began shifting them so, offering to bet client could not tell under which cup was the lt little joker," menning thereby, may it please the court, this ball, with thu intention of defrauding my client of. the sum thus Wagered. For instance^ when I raise the cup so, your honor sup poses that you see the ball." "Suppose I see!" interrupted thc judge, who had closely watched the performance, and was suite that he detected the ball as one of the cups was accidentally raised. " Why any foci can see where -it is, and bit on it, and be sure to win. Thar ain't ?o defraudin' thar." "Perhaps your honor "would like to go a. V on it," insinuated the counsel. "Goa V lyes, and double it, too; and here's the rhino. Il's.under lite middle cup.'' "And I, and I," joined in the jurors, one alter the other, until each one had in: vested his pile. M Up !" said his honor. "Up" it wasf; but the "little joker" had mysteriously disappeared. Judge and jury were enlightened, and found no difficulty in bringing in a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, on Ute ground that it was M the derndest kind of defraudin." -? -?--' ANECDOTE OF A--HIGHLAND SOLDIER. NO man who has ever lived among the. peasantry of Scotland will deny tht\ effects produced on them by their popular songs. During the expedition to Buenos Ayres, a Highland soldier, while a prison er in the hands of the Spaniards, having formed an attachment to a woman of the country, and, charmed by the easy life which the tropical fertility of the soil ena bled the inhabitants to lead, had resolved* to remain and settle in South America,. When he imparted this resolution to his comrade, the latter did not argue wifh him, but leading him to his tent, he placed him by his side and sang him " Lochaber no more." The spell was on him. The tears came .in his eyes, and wrapping his plaid around him, he murmured, "Lo chaber natnair-I mun gang back." The* songs of his childhood were ringing in, his ears, and he left that land of ease ana plenty for the naked rocks and sterile! valleys of Badenoch, where, nt the close* of a life of toil hardships, he-might lay his head on his mother's grave. ?Q.QQQ Yards" WHITE G-O O D B, REDUCED ?nt?
