SEVENTH WARD. The Germans of the Seveuth Ward held a mveting last cvening at No. 252 West Twelfth strect, and formed a Hayes and Wheeler Club.

A majority of them were now ,as they always had been, steadfast Republicans. ~ No German of character or pctability could vote for Tilden and Heu- ks. The Germans were tborough Union mi:u, and were not yet ready toturn the country over to those who tried to destroy jt. Mr. ¥ A. Herring made some stirring and patriotic re- marks.

Y., Sept. 2.—Judge Gray, the Chairman of the Democratic State Convention, telegraphs to the State Committe that it should not name a candidate for Governor in place of Seymour, but should either recall the Conven- tiun or call = new one. Judge Gray eays here- ceived & telegram from Gov. Seymour declining kis nomination for any oftice “and withheldjc from the Convention by the advice of the C! 1z of the State Committee, who recommended 1hat no mention be made of it until the Com- mittee to confer with Gov. Scymour had been heard from. The Chairman of 'this latter Com- m.itee reporting that Gov. Seymour would ac- cept the uomination, made it unnecessary to read the dispatch. Urica, N. Y., Sept. 2.—Daniel Magone, Jr., tor Kerpan, tue Hon. Scott Lord, J.Thomas , A. M. Beardsley, and other prominent rats went to Deerticld this morning, and ived from Gov, Scymour a refusal to with- draw or modiiy his absolute declination to al- luw the use of his name as a candidate for Gov- ernor. ) New Yomk, Sept. 2.—The excitement, not only irere, but_throughout the country, is in- teuze in regard to Gov. Seymour’s course. The World persists that he will sccept, while all others, iucluding the Swun, have come to the | conclusion that this is not possible, and that a 1ew conyention must assemble at obre. Toe Zimes declares that Tilden to-day ecnt a £pecial messenger to Scymour, requesting him 1o sgy nothing, uefihier aceept nor decling, and st its information 1s most pusitive. 150 asseris that Charles Frapis Adams is 10 be nominated for Governor in Massachusetts, not i hupe of bis clection, but merely for iis woral effect for Tilden elsewhere. tion in his pocket dur- Ty 1ast bours of the Convention, but that waucu Faulkner said in the Convention that Sey- mour sccepted, he adjudged it useless o -read atel, thinking that Faulkuer’s intelli- enee was later. Judge Gray is greatly incensed at the evident dishonesty of somebody. ong peuplebere in New York the situation is rumarded as gloomy, and the autbor of tue fulse statement of acceptance is openly de- uounced, Tue best friends of Sermour say they hope he will not_gccept now, as it would only bolster Tilden at Seymour's ¢xpense. . ‘The Z7ibunecs Albany special says: “A new n is 2 matter of vertainty sdould the n of Seymour prove absolute. In that case telegrams will probably Besent tothe Com- ittcymen throughout the State asking consent 10 sign their nawces 10 acall for a convention ot Albauy on Thursdar; and with the receipt of stich consent primaries will be held Monday. “The Zimes' cditurial says: The Merry An- drew of the TWorld has perpetrated the groatest joke of a truly droll ecason. On Thursday nigint e placarded {ke town with enormons posters v this effect: The truthat last. Tilden no per- jurer. -Sce the World ot Friday, Sept. 1.

As usual the park phactons proved their uscfulness, and the lawns were thronged with pleasure-seekers who came to ob- taina bricf respite from the close and noisy city. : THE SIXTH HOP of the geason was given at the Hyde Park House Tuesday night. The openiir con- cnrt un upon - the- north verandah at oo and” the exquisite weleome to both guests and $:30 the grand dining-hall was opencd, and theneeforth uill near midnight all was mclody aod mirth. The promenades were brilfuntly lighted, and bLundreds sought the cool “lake brecze, only to reiurn i to renewell fustivities, The trim little Bret fIarte brought out a num- ber of the lovers of jre-crcam aud dancing, but the greater portion of the mooulight sailors were sh$ of braving tue unknown terrors of a rising_storm, and sought therr metropolitan daomiciles by cars and coach. " The attendance was large and select, and & sleasanter eveuing has scldom been passed. 3 1TEMS. The Chicago Rifie Club shot at their South Park range Friday. Last Wednesday Mr. B.

An opportuuity to sce them will be afforded Thurs- day night, when “there isto bea Hayes and Whecler parade, which will probably edlipse sny demunstration of the kind heretofore wit- nessed in Chivago.

There wes a sweet flower, red and white, That filled the gazer with delizht. Dropped in soft showers the summer raing ) Joy bounded throuzh each teemins vein. Shone the glad sun, and round it rolied s quickening heat in waves of zold. A lady from_her chiamber canie, And watched its bells in beauty flame, Each jewcled branch she closcly scanned, Then bore the brightest in her band. Across the grass ehe gayly sped, ‘And emiling to herself she suid: * ** Of flowers that bloom, or birds that fly, Not one ix half xo brightas 1™ Then from the sun to srateful gloowm She pasaed into the fragrant room, Took down the mirror from its place, And guzed on her own lovely face; Closé 10 her check then hield the flower, Still sparkling with a silversliower.

They came at 10 a. m.—the baby, his grand- mother, his pana, and mamma, and two aunties. They wanted to have his picture taken. The oblizing artist got everyibing in readiness, brought out the little velvet-lined high-chair in which bables are usually photographed, and then the trouble began. The baby’s papa wanted to take off its sacque because it had such pretty fat’ arms, but its mamma was afraid that it might take cold. Then one auntie thought it would be s0 sweet to take off his little stockings and sit him in a big arm-chair, but his other auntie thought that such a performance would be very immodest indeed, and a conflict scemed immi- nent. » Finally it was agreed that they should take the artist’s advice and strap him up in the high chair. -After much ringing of bells the baby was induced to look with favor on the new state of affairs. The artist fil’cpnrcd to tuke the negative, but just at the critical moment the infant doubled himself across the strap and screamed lustily. 1lis papa jingled the bells anew, the artist set the music-bos woing, while the mamma drew him out of his chair, and cne auntie called him a *putzy utzy ittle siug.” Peace being restored, another negative was taken, this time with tolerable success. But one auntie did not like the expression of the face, and the mamma thought that it did not do justice to his cyes. The pext time he stuck both fists into his mouth and shut one cye; and the next time his grandmna, who had teen watching him iutently, ran hastily forward and !l;eg‘.m shaking him"and slapping him on the ack. X 1t was 12 o’dock, and the thermometer stood | at ninety-cight degrees fu the shade, and that artist ground his teeth and looked to see how {ar it was from the window to the sidewalk. Three or four more unsatisfactory attempts were made, and at last the baby, who had been taken out of the chair g0 many tines and: was not properly sccured, siipped down on the floor witha thump. A grand lhubbub followed; everybody screamed; the timid auntie fainted and the papa swore; while the trembling artist, fearing for his life, secreted -himself behind a sereen'in the cornor, where he waited until he was sure that no bones were broken, und then he came forth, saving thst he had been sudden- 1y called down stairs to see a man. He was so much relieved ou being told that they would not try again that day that he forgot. tolive up to bis rules and demand “ pay when the negative is taken.” As they started down the stairs the head of the family informed him thiat they would call again in 2 féw days, and he has hired a small boy to sit at the foot of the steps and bring him_word at their approach, so that he may have time to lock the door and hang out 4 notice—*Gong to thie Centennial”? —Omaha Republican. HIS GROUND FOR DIVORCE. A Raleigh lawyer (says the Sentine) was inter- viewed yesterday by an agriculturist living a score of miles from the city, who said he want- ed to securea divoree from his wife. “You don’t live happily with her, c¢h?” in- quired the attorngy. “Noj; we dow’t seem to hitch wuth a cent,” was the quiet reply. “Does she scold and fret, and meke your homae a hell upon earth, s0 to speak ™’ continued the lawyer. “That's her, exactly.” “And you are prepared to prove that you have a peaceful disposition, and that you have d°€fy ‘everyuung you could to make home pleas- ant? “Youbet Tam!

Kerr---Slade, the Slate- * Writer---The Stewart Store---Ven- dorbilt and the Reporters-.- The “World” and Its Chances for Life, Special Correspondence of The Tribune. NEw YORK, Aug. 30.—Mr. Newell (“ Orpheus C. Kerr "), of whose phenumenal abstinence I told your readgrs a month ago, still lives. Yes- terday closed an eight-weeks’ fast, during which time he has not eaten in the agercgate half a pound of solid food. His entjre nourishment has consisted of a cup of coffee each day at breakfast, and a small glass of milk-punch every other evening. He was at the Graphic office on Saturday, having missed his desk only three times since the beginning of his fast, and walk- ing a mile and a-half to2 milesa day on an average. He always walks in preference to rid- ing, and climbs the three flights of stairs instead of using the elevator, because he doesn’t like to confess to himself that he is growing weak. Yet he has lost 50 pounds, and is only a skele- ton,—a most cheerful, witty, and agrecable skeleton, however, let me say. He uses exercise as ‘s moral agent,” he ex- plains. Moreover, he fecls better at his old desk than anywhere else. “If I were to consent toride,” he says, “and dawdle around on beds and lounges, 1 should soon lose what strength Ihave.” Why don’t you cat when you need food so much?” I asked him. “I canuot eat;” he replied, it is ut- terly impossible. I try almost every day, mere- ly to gratify my alarmed relatives, but it’s of no use. Ihave mo antipathy to food, norepug- nance; I feel the same intellectual pleasure in the sight and smell of food that I always did, and the ripe fruit drives me half distracted. Every evening I sit down to dinmer with the rest, and my sisters always set some delicious trap for me,—a bit of tenderloin or a nicely- grilled bird. Itake my knife and fork, and think perhaps I can eat now. I have no appe- tite, and am never hungry, but I 1ift a bit as big asa pea upon my tongue, and cannot swallow it, for at that instant there comes upon me an absurd apd preposterous sense of fullness, as if Ihad just caten a whole tableful; I feel like an anaconda gorged with rabbits. The stomach refuses either to invite food or to accept it; the enticing functions seem to be paralyzed; and so Iawait for that good time which is perhaps cowing when the involuntary nerves will co- operate with my will.” ¢ Well, but,” I urged, ijou ere yoiy likcly fo die’ waitiig! “Yes, I koow that,” he said; I think my chances for life and death are just about even.” “He the most skillful physicdians, who agree that the pneumogastric neryes seem to be dead.

In thatclose carriage, under the protection of & eunuch on a splendid horse, are two of his favorite wives, milk-white Circassian beautics, with their faces swathed in snowy folds of gauze; the exquisite carmine Jips, oven the faint ruse-tint of the check, are. visible through this coquettish mask; high arched c{ebmws and eyes 15 black as night are | busy with the world they Lnow so_little of.

Still, the nttendgnnce has be:z lurze, and the session very interesting.

Itis certain that the exposure of those impos- tors, Annie Eva Fuy and Teakettle Flint, has bad the effect of introducing new doubt’ into the minds of many honest * believers.” Yet. Dr. Henry Slade, the slate-writing medium, is now creating a real sensation in England. Iis and gentry, and his eervices engaged in advunce. At the rate of & guinca (§4.06) a ticket, he ought to get rich. Among the recognized scientists woo have been puzzled and bewildered by his doings is Sergeaut Cox, President of the Psychological Boclety, a stubborn skeptic and author of the “Psychic Force™ theory. In the London Spiritualist, just Teceived, he reports his first scance with Slade. He says that in full daslight the table was lifted, heavy chairs walked across the floor without any human or rhechanieal con- tact, slates were written on intelligently while Sergeant Cox held them and nobodyelse fouched them, and p;lgnhle, detached hands plucked his coat, grasped his kuee, and carried portable ob- Jects about before his'eyes. He confesses him- 5elf astounded, says Lic has no ‘theory to ac- count for the plicnomena, and declards that whoever maintains that they are frandulent is bound to imitate them or get somebody to imi- tate them under conditions exactly similar. This is what Bishop do¢s with the Fay * phenomena,” and Cox’s'demand seems reasonable. FRICTION 1N THE STEWART MACHISE. There is reported *to be, trouble in the great house of Stewart, and a chance that the estab- lishment may cither be wrecked in the quarrel, or change hands. Mr. Libby, Stewart's part- mner and right-hand man in the dry-zoods.busi- ness, is represented as unable to agree with Judge Hilton, Stewart’s layyer and favored heir. They give conflicting orders in the store: they countérmand each other’s orders, and nobody knows precisely who is who. Un- deniably, Mr. Libby understands more about the busincss, and when to buy and how to sell, while Mr. Hilton has the larger in- terest. Hilton is a coarse-grained, phlegmati and uneducated man, devoted to very material things. When Waterhouse Hawkins, the dis- tinguished naturalist, was introducing a set of Ward’s beautiful plaster-casts to the Central Park cabinet, Hilton, one of the Commissioners, interfored, stopped_ the work as foolish, and had the venerable megatherium and pterodactyl knocked to pieces and carted off. He is a regu- lar Gradgrind, and docsn’t believe in anything that can’t be eaten or worn. THE STURGGLING MILLIONAIRE. . Speaking of the departed king of {abrics, here is the living king of transportation, Vunderbilt, zmdnalg rising again into life. It begins to look as if he might_ go out, and even erhaps resume control of his great railroads. gvnu a lark it would beif the Commodore, on whose death brokers have been gambling for months, should turn the tables :mg once -more put his book into the jaws of that Wall street behe- moth! The newspapers, by the way, are getting very tired of keeping the old man’s obituary in type, and they are becoming still more tired of Kkeeping a brizade of futile reporters around his house. * The Vanderbilt illness will cost almast asmuch as the Beecher- trial. Every morning paper here employs three reporters whose exe clusive business it §8 to *“*do’” Vanderbilt. They serve in relays of eight hours each, and one for cach p&peris constantly on guard. There are some fifteen at & time intheaggrezate. At first they hung around the front gate; questioned the'doctors, visitors, and servants, interviewed the butcher, baker, candle-stick mgker, and others, or climbed the lamp-post in wivaclons rlra]r{ and obtained furtive glimpses throngh the blind when a zephyr stitred the curtain. Now they occupy two rooms assipned them in the University opposite, and they have a festive, not to say convivial, time. They dispatch a picket of two to patrol in front of the house and get the news, and the rest send out for pea- nuts, ginger-ale, lager, and even more enticing luxurics, and they play poker with unflagging zeal. It improves the environment.
