Alter displaying all the p«rt_ and
point*, of ids wonderful chair, culling at
tention to the formidable claws clustered
on its sides, the natural feet of tiie ani
mals on which it rested, ihe old hunter
paused. It was plain, however, that
something remained to be told, some
thing startling to be shown, ami the
Rocky Mountain speaker had not pro
nounced his perontiion. Carefully un
loosing the cords which concealed the
huge head, he suddenly darted il, snap
ping and gnashing its teeth, close to tbe
President's knees, which was received
by the crowd with uproarious Itui.bteiT,
und heartily enjoyed by the President
himself.
The grown children of his Excellency,
several in number, now came in, anil
were loud in their denialmis to bo shown
again and again this wonderful feature
of the chair. _fo one seemed to enjoy i
their delight and fun more thnn the i
President, whose cure-worn- face waa I
lighted up with benignant smiles, and i
whose stern nature seemed to huve re
laxed and grown cheerful over tbe plea- 1

accord, now withdrew, leaving Kiuman (
almost alone with the Piesideiit. At i
last, however, upon suggesting to bis t
Excellency that he should keep the j
head of the "grizzly" u-e)lprotruded iv ]
order to frighten off the offlce-BCekera |
and unrepentant Rebels who beatlge his j
mansion, and receiving a warm invita

pleasure, the worthy old hunter with
drew, well pleased at his reception and
success.

We judge from the following that liv

pleasanter iv Mobile than it is iv Nor
folk:
Living here is what a rich man may
do. A man ou h small salary can only
do so witli tiie greatest economy. Rents
aro extremely high, and all else in pro
portion— nbout three hundred percent,
advance on the prices of 1860. Servants
are wanted badly. The blacks cannot
be depended upon, und now aro more

The New York Time* (Republican)
thiis s]>i'aks of the action of the Demo
cratic .--late tonvention, tho resolutions
and candidates;
" It ia perfectly evident- that the con
vention met with a determination to
squelch out, utterly and completely, the
Copperhead elements which hiivti liith- I
erto rulerl mil ruined the Dereoe.i'aue |
frßirry Tt UeqUNrlyflearthiitils object,
.' fiir the time, ut li'ii-t, hits been accom
plished. The War Hemocrals have Ptit
' their foot upon 'Horatio Seymour asti's
- t'.neily and decisively as upon Fetnandi
, ! Wooti. i. very thing that these men
I have favored is distinctly repudiated.—
a t'iovefitor Seymour's demand that New
* l-lgliind shall not have hvc/ir Volet in
ii the Cnited Slates Senate, while New,
YmU has l.ttt tw&. la me! by a ilistiliei I
declafation of the " etplattty of S'tit/m ;"
iihd the riVonsfriietioti pollc'y ofpasl
■ ilelit Johnson, wldeh is denouiieed by
■ all ihe Copperhead organs as tyr.-inmciil I
and cruel, is specially commended, as
, "evlin-'m.; enthniteni'i! statesmanship,
' Souttd political theory.' ahd an old-iash
ioncd, time honored regard for tbe rela
* lions and Hghtß of the Stales nnd the
I'Vileru! tiovi'i'iinieut, as established by
the Conilitiition." It is in.l easy, in
| deed, lo see how Ihe " Peace Democrats"
: can accept this platform, or act with the
party which so cortteinptuously rejects
and repudiates thorn, tint liia'f is their
1 business and none of ours.
" rhe, nominations of the convention
> are even cadre remarkable than lis row
.' luliolrs. (.. lieral Slocuin, who is their
| candidate for Secretary of state, was In
'.' ih.",<i a 'Republican member 6f the Slate
Assembly, and when (he war broke out
.' wa- the KeptihJieaii Treasurer of Qnon
daßa county. We believe he has always
mclcil with the Republican part*/! and
tllnf he now holds, as he always has
1 held, rhe principle* lo which thut party
has been devoted. We know no ifasoii
et.nnected with his political principles
and action why he should not nave been
I tho Union and Beuublioim candidate.—
We certainly consider it a high compli
ment to tiie Republican party that the
I Democrats should have come into its
ranks for their leading candidalo.
"Coiui<lrolli;r Robinson's nomination
is even asl longer mdi i.-tUion of the change
, which has conic over tlit; dream of the
Democrat.-. He was brought into pub
lic life originally by the more radical
" element ot the Republican party, and
' bei-uio bo _ißguated with Mr. Lin
rolu's 'conservatism' that he led off in
the canvass fur Fremont: ami when that
reliance failed him, finding no cundi
' daLcsuliicicnlly radical to meet his views
1 in, the field, he refused to vote for Presi
dent at ull. He is now the
...... .nt-' •• - * •
t ..„. .«, comptroller! If this is I
t noi 'paying hmmige to the virtue'of Re
,. luiblicniiisiu, we know not what would
r be. John \'an Muivn, the leading W.'ir
Dentocial of Ihe State, and the inveter
ale foe of Seymour, Wood it Co., is noiu
, inatetl for Attorney fieneral, and .Mar
tin Ci'over, an old Republican, for a
I Judge of the Court of Appeals. The
convention perfected its work by pdtting i
. the Democratic state Committee Into
the hands of Dean Iciciimomi and Ie- ,
| tar B. Sweeney.
"We accept the surrender of the Dem
ocratic party with pleasure. It imli
ctilies a healthy tone in tiie public mintl
and a growing patriotism in tbe Demo
cratic ranks. It. promises well for the
future of the country. It will defeat tho
ticket, if the Unionists are wise, by an
overwhelming vote; for the great mass
of the Democratic party are sagacious
enough To see, that if they desire to sus
tain the principles and policy of the Ad
ministration, they call do it with the
most honesty and cflect by supportine
its candidates also.
