FOR PRESIDENT: HORATIO SEYMOUR OF NEW YORK. 4 FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: WM H. ENGLISH OF INDIANA.

English, of Indiana, in New York Herald. TEIE CITY ELECTION DUTY OF DH.TlOCIt ITS. Catch words this they may be called for lack of a better term in a public convention, enable us to read between the lines of the resolutions that may be adopted the real purposes of those who vote for them. The utterances of the speakers often reveal the secret which the avowed action of the meeting is in tended to cloak. At the convention of the Republican voters of the city, night before last, one of the speakers walked "up in front of the chairman and demanded to know "what this convention is called for, any how." The reply was, "To strengthen the Republican party for the presiden tial election." Another speaker advie ed that no nomination be made, and significantly added, "it will all come out right; there will come a time when we shall be rewarded." "You mean in the presidential election," ejaculated the chairman, and there was cheering. It does not require any special gil ts of penetration, therefore, to discover that the Republicans, imagining they see in the present crisis of affairs in the city, an opportunity of doing some good work for the party, have resolved to make a sharp, shrewd fight. They made no nomination, and why ? Another of the speakers answered the question when he said, "if we nominate a man, we drive off some of our friends." While fearing to make a straight-out fight, they expect, in the event of succes?, to ' cry out "Republican victory ;" in case of defeat, they can say, "we made no nomi nation." The duty of every man who owns al legiance to the Democratic party is, therefore, plain. If our man was i,ot nominated, tlte best thing we can do is to show our interest in him personally by voting to sustain the party to which he belongs and to which he must look for preferment in the future. The in terest of the party, no less than that of the city government demands that there should be no backing down in the em( r gency now upon us. The candidates be fore the late Democratic convention have gracefully yielded to its voice; not let their friends, whether they at tended the convention or now comegal lantly to the support of the man who was the choice of this convention, which was composed of a very large number of our best citizens, and which was con fessedly conducted in a perfectly f;iir and straight forward manner. When Gen. Grant eagerly searches among the pile of papeis on his table this morning for his Observer, to see what the Charlotte Republicans did at their late convention, and reads in the proceedings thereof that "the Republi can party is not an aggressive party," he will be overwhelmed by the depth of penetration which enabled his Char lotte friends to make sucli a discovery. He may have some doubt as to whether or not this is really one of his conven tions, but this doubt will be removed as soon as he reads the last paragraph in which appears the name of Prince Brown. Georgia was among the first States in the South to get out from under Repub lican rule and its growth and prosperi ty are remarkable. Its credit is so high it floats a four per cent, loan, and there being $250,000 in the treasury not need ed for any public purpose, Gov. Colquitt has directed that this sum be applied to the redemption of the fpur per cent, bond and such other bonds as can be redeemed at par. The Greenback party is determined to keep itself before the country. Having failed to do so by the ordinary methods, they tried a novel one at the late meet ing in Indiana. A" woman, Dr. Mary Thomas L,et her not be confounded with Dr. Mary Walker was elected a delegate to their convention in Chica go. Judge Black is reported assaying that Mr. Tilden has decided not to be a candidate and that his preference lies between Judge" Field and Gen. Han cocks Jtjooks now, however, as if the old man had concluded to review and revise, his alleged decision. Both the Con cord, papers are out and out for Col. Win. Johnston, of Meck lenburg, for Congress. The Sun says: "Give Johnston the nomination nri he will sweep not only Cabarrus but this whole congressional district, like a prairie re,w There 'is; more news from Mr. Sey mour. Notwithstanding his enemies in and out of the party have tried to kill 1 him off by the bad health" dodge, he is as weirand stout as any man of his age in the country; '2 CABLE FLASHES.

SYNOPSIS Washington, May U House. A bill was passed for the relief of Notre Dame College, Indiana. Scales, of North Carolina, chairman of the committe on Indian affairs, re ported a bill to accept and ratifiy the agreement submitted by the Confeder ated Ute Indians for the sale of their reservation in Colarado. Printed and recommitted. I if . On motion of Price, of Iowa, the bill was passed, providing that the oath or affirmation verifying returns made by national banks may be . taken before notaries public. Money, of Mississippi, offered a reso lution authorizing the 'Secretary of War to send four thousand rations to Macon, Miss., for the use of the suffer ers made destitute by ttvfr cyclone of April 25th. Adopted. A dispute arose as to whether the bill for the relief of L. MacSisdn Day, of Louisiana, came over as unfinished business, and the Speaker, though of the opinion that there had been an agreement that it should be considered as such, was compelled to rule that as the previous question was not pending the bill could not come up until Friday next. The Speaker proceeded to call com mittees for report. Blackburn, from the committee on appropriations, reported the post office appropriations bill, which was ordered to be printed and recommitted. The bill recommends an appropriation of $38,600,000. Blackburn gave notice that he would call it up for considera tion Tuesday next. The House then at 1 : 5.5' went into committee of the whole, Thompson, of Kentucky, in the chair, -on the bill amending the internal revenue laws, the pending amendment being that of fered by McKenzie, of Kentucky, pro viding that producers of leaf tobacco shall be allowed without payment of tax to sell leaf tobacco to other than licensed dealers, manufacturers or ex porters, provided they do not sell exceed ing $10,000 worth in any one year. Rul ed out on a point of order, Knott, of Kentucky, offered an amend mtnt providing that sub-section 2, of section 3,244, of the revised statutes, which requires a tax of $50 on each still manufactured, shall ; not apply to distillers who manufacture for their own use, wooden stills. Adopted. Singleton, of Illinois,, offered an amendment providing that nothing con tained in this act shall be construed to authorize any interference by revenue officers with the exercise of the right of every individual to manufacture and convert fruits grown on his own land into such form for family use as he may desire, free from internal revenue tax. After some discussion the amend ment was-rejected, 06 to S4. The committee rose and reported the bill and amendment to the House. Butterworth spoke iri favor of the bill, and Conger opposed it. Carlisle, who had clvarge of the bill, yielded the floor to Garfifld, who said he wished to call the attention of the House and the country to the matter which related closely to the work of the committee on ways and, means, especi ally to himself, and which was a speci men of the way in which public opin ion was manufactured. . lie then pro ceeded to defend himself against the charge made in a circular issued by Geo. B. Kowell, that he was responsible for the delay of the ways and means committee in making a report on the proposition to remove the tax from printing paper, &c. After Garfield's remarks a vote being taken on Conger's amendment, provid ing that in case of non-payment of tax on any distilled spirits within one year irom the date ot the original warehous ing bond, interest shall accrue on such tax at the.rate of 5 per cent. It was re jected yeas 58, nays 101. ' The biil then went over without final action ana at 4:45 p. m. the House adjourned. THE GALLOWS. Ten Thousand Person v Witness tbe Execution of a, Texas Murderer. New York, May 1. A special from Gainesville, Texas, gives the particulars of the execution of L. M. Noftsinger, convicted of the wilful murder of Willis Cline, in Cook county, in 1878. Noft singer and his victim were rival suitors for the hand of the same young woman, and the success of the latter in bearing ort the prize so enraged .Nortsinger that he murdered him in bed. About 10,000 people witnessed the execution. When Noftsinger had .mounted the scaffold and the knot v;is about to be adjusted, he said: Fellow-citizens : If you think I ought to die, I am willing, f do not thank vjov. ltooeris in my case,suiougn ne was honest in his convictions. Judge Car roll promised to recommend my com mutation. You all know how he used me. If Gov. Roberts wants fne to die I am ready. Friends and al good-bye. .1 hope to meet you all in a; better world." The "Rock of Aees" was then suns. after which prayer was offered. At 1 :30 -Moitsinger bade the sheriff good-bye and stepped on the drop which carried him six feet.
