The Washington Iostt that started the Seymour boom, now says he will not be a candidate because he cannot carry New York. An officer of Con gress from Utica, N. Y.,Mr. Sey mours home, tells the Riohmond Dispatch's correspondent! "that Mr. Seymour is a strong t hearty man of sixty-nine," and prefers another man to himself fpr . the nomination, and does not want it. Very good. But suppose the people want him to have it, what theu? Ue has; patriotism enough to bow to the majestic voice of freemen. In that instance the voice of the people would be to him as the voice of God. The Dispatch has this to say: ; "Mr. Seymour has never allowed the use of his name in this connection, but has al ways declined to do so. I Therefore, it won't do to say that he refuses to allow tbo further use ot his name.' 'More over, - as it is absurd to say that he couldn't carry New i York, we do not believe that Mr. Seymour has ever said so. On the other hand, the Post eives us a telegram from San Francisco savins that the entire California delegation will go for Mr. Sey mour if he will accept the nomination of the Cincinnati Convention. Also, one from Missouri saying that in Buchanan county last Saturday, an old Virginian, ex-Go v. Silas Woodson, made a speech in which be declared himself in favor of Seymour and Hendricks. Also, a telegram from Illinois, saying that of the delegates from McDon augh county to the Stale Convention six are known to be for Seymour." Judge David Davis has written a letter bidding for the nomination for President. The Kellyites like it and think it opens the way for getting rid of Tilden. The New York cor respondent of the Philadelphia Ledger writes of what Tammany thinks about it as follows: 1 "They say it is a platform upon which Democrats of every etripe and section can conscientiously stand, and, what is more, the maker of it occupies a pontion, as to personal character, that would make him absolutely proof against the shafts of the enemy. Therefore they are willing to take Judge David Davis at Cincinnati. Gen. Tom wing,who is just now in the city, says there is really nothine new in the issues as presented by Judge Davis, though it is neces sary sometimes that old truths should be retold; and he does not think that, unless be has something better than his letter to back him, that gentleman's) strength in the Convention will be very pronounced. It is to be added, however, by wajr of qualify ing this observation, that Mr. Ewing in dulges the idea that it is entirely within the pale of probability that himself is 'the dark horse.'" Public opinion has pretty well settled down as to the guilt of the negro cadet, Whit taker. That he wrote the note of warning is almost certain possibly altogether so. A writer in the Washington Post thus states the case: 5 "There were four half Bheeta of paper submitted to Mr. Soulhwortb; the expert. and staled as follows: No. 1. Letter of warn ing to Whtllaker equals one-half sheet; No. 2. Letter by Wbittaker to bis mother equals one-half sheet; No. 3. Letter by Wbit taker to his mother equals one-half sheet; No. 4. Letter by Whittaker for postage stamps equals one-half sheet. This ex pert found that Hoa. 1 and 'A constituted one sheet when put together, and that Nos. 4 and 3 constituted one sheet when put tos getner, tne indentation in eacn nail sneet fitting exactly.

In his course the in surance sign of Messrs. DeRosset & North rop was demolished, and the wheel of the vehicle camo in contact with Mr. E. Kidder's buggy. Reaching the corner of Princess and Water street by which time the buggy had been turned bottom-up, the horse was stopped by Mr. Dunham himself, who hap pened to be standing opposite the Ex change when the runaway took place. Mr. Dunham's buggy was badly demolished, but Mr. Kidder's only received slight damage to the axle-tree. Seat to (lie County Insane Aerlum.

MAY 27. 1880. ATTBIIIPTBO JAIL DELIVER V. A Darius Attempt to Break Jail One of the Coneplratora Prepared to strike tbe Jailor Down-How tne Attempt wae Frustrated, Ac.' Yesterday morning, about 4 o'clock, Daniel Howard, the jailor, was aroused from his slumbers by the vigorous shaking of the front door of the jaiL He got up and went to the window to listen, and while standing there a policeman on the . street told bim that some one in jail was calling him. Howard hastily dressed himself , and in the meantime Officer Everett, alluded to above, was joined by Officers Nelson and Williams, who were just oil night duty and starting home. The four then went into the jail yard, when Nathan Graham, com monly known as "Crazy Nathan," who is in jail for safe-keeping, sung out to the jailor, "Look out how you go in there; there's Some one loose in the passage!" The jailor opened tbe outside door, when, through the lattice door on the inside, be espied one of the colored prisoners stand ing at one side with a piece of board some four feet long drawn back, as if ready to strike any one who should attempt to en ter. The jailor ordered him to retire, but be never stirred. He then told the prisoner that if he didn't get away from the door he would shoot him, drawing his pistol at the same time. At this the prisoner jumped back behind the heater, the large "drum" to which almost completely con cealed his body. Howard discharged his pistol as nearly in his direction as possible, when the prisoner got frightened aud ran off. The jailor and police officers Everett, Nelson and Williams then entered, and the two prisoners engaged in the attempt to escape were captured, put in their cell and securely ironed, so there will be no possi bility of their making another such demon stration. The two men proved to be George Myers, awaiting trial for burglary, and Joseph Campbell, a prisoner from Pender county, charged with breaking into the store of Mr. Thomas Williams, at Rocky Point Quarry, some weeks ago. Upon examination it was found that the two men had broken out of the cell in which they were confined by wrenching three iron bars a half inch thick from tbe door, which left a hole sufficiently large to permit of their egress. They then went to work and tore up the tank in the corner of the room, connected with the water-cooler, and boxed up so as to cover a considerable space, the supposition being that they thought there was a hollow space beneath through which they might effect their escape. Failing in this, they next com menced ripping up the flooring, and had succeeded in getting up two planks, when they discovered that the floor was a double one. Their next move seems to have been the desperate one of attracting the jailor to the front door, and as he should open it and attempt to enter, as they evidently thought he would do, to strike him down with the piece of board and make their escape over his prostrate body. Jailor Howard is not certain which of fhe men was standing at the door, as he could not see him distinctly. Samuel Grice, colored, charged with tampering with the mails, and awaiting trial at the next term of the United States District Court, occupied the same cell with the two men, but did not go out with them. He says he was asleep and didn't know when tbe others broke out. Myers, one of the conspirators, will be put on trial to-morrow for his life.

WINSLOW T-As this question Is frequently asked, we will simply say that she is a lady who for upwards of thirty years has untiringly devoted her time and talents as a Female Physician and nurse, principally among children. She has especially studied the constitution and wants of this numerous class, and, ara result of this effort, and practical knowledge obtained in a lifetime spent as nurse and physician, she has compounded a Sooth ing Syrup for children teething. It operates like magic giving rest and health, and is moreover sure to regulate the bowels. In consequence of this ar ticle Mrs. Winslow is becoming world renowned as a benefactor of the race; children certainly do bibb up and bless her; especially is this the case in this city. Vast quantities of the Soothing Syrup are DAJir sold and used here. We think Mrs. Winslow has immortalized her name by this invaluable arti cle, and we sincerely believe thousands of children have been saved from an early grave by its timely use, and that millions yet unborn will share its benefits, and unite in calling her blessed. No mo ther has discharged her duty to her suffering little one. in our ooinTon. until she haa criwa it. tha Kona. fit of Mrs. winslow's Soothing Syrup. Try it, me-thers-TBT it now. Ladies' Viktor.
