ee 2 2 me a Sonate Tharsday, Oetober 26, 1871. The Tammany Victory at Roch= ‘ ester. ‘Mae. William M. Tweed has put Horatio Seymour, Mr. Samuel J, Tilden, and the other protesting or reforming Democrats into his pocket, and has buttoned them up. There was never so humiliating and ridiculous a surrender so close upon the heels of the most. sonorous defiance. The reform Democrats declared that they would expel Tammany ignominiously from the Convention.— They proclaimed that the honest andintelligent men of the party should ' be admitted as the true representatives of the New York city Democracy, and the whole world was to “gee that the party was not responsi“ble for the sins of Tammany. ‘And what was the result? Tammany eame to ‘the Convention. Directly upon the organization it announced that it was the only regular delegation, and the only one entitled toa seat, but that it would of its own pleasure waive its own unquestionable right, and that New York should he unrepresented. It chcse not to take its seat. It chose not to have any other delegation admitted. It chose to leave the city of New York, the centre of the Democratic vote, unrepresented in the State Convention. It declared that it did this of its own free will; and Tammany having thus decided what the Conyéntion should do, Mr, Horatio Seymotr and Mr. Samuel J. Tilden bleated ‘‘Amen!’’ It is now asserted, says Harper's . . Weekly, that the only object of the decent Democracy was to exclude Tammany from the Convention, and that they didit. But itis not. true. Tammany. declined to take the seat which it defied the Convention to —-eontest, and itself excluded_the-de-. — cent delegation. And, after scornfully consenting to hear the orators of the reform, Tammany hissed Mr. .Pilden when he made a show of censuring corruption, and he instantly}succumbed, and did the work of Tammany by moving to proceed to the nomination, leaving the question of admission unsettled. The Conyention then renominated the ticket, with one or two exceptions, which Tammany nominated two years ago. We repeat, therefore, that the Convention did not exclude Tammany, but Tammany excluded the decent Democracy. If. the pluck of the Convention had been equal to that of Tammany, it would have said that if Tammany chose to stay out, it was tts own affair, but that it certainly should not comicin,and that the honest and decent Democracy of New York should be represented by the delegates it had chosen. Why did not the Convenation do this, which, as Mr. Abraham KR. Lawrence said, was the honorable course to pursue? Betause it feared the revenge of Tammany. That isthe only reason. It feared that Tammany would defeat the party in November in order to show that its support is indispensable to victory. And in what plight does this conclusion leave the Democratic gentlemen who have cried ous against the Tammany frauds? Simply, that while they denoungy the stealing of money by the Ring, they wink at the stealing of votes to secure a Demociatic majority. Tammany has never won & more complete victory than at Rochester; and those who acquiesced i in it from fear of defeat ja .the November election, have merely succeeded in identifying their party with the Tammany frauds. When the war upon Tammany began, we were reproached for <impliyating the Democratic party in the dishonesty. But the Democratic party of New York, in its State Convention, has just suffered Tammany to exclude an anti-Tammany delegation. The party has refused by its action to denounce Tammany, and ite platform is waste paper. Even had it resolutely admitted the decent delegation to the Convention, and taken the risk of defeat at the election, it would have been questionable whether honest men should = ‘yots for. candidates of any party which is so deeply tainted; but now that it has inclined to purge. itself, there is no ‘question whatever. In . . . which opposes Tammany now, as it) has always opposed it, and which denounces its frauds at the ballot box no less than its frauds at the. money box, We have heard of many Deni ocrats who, in disgust with the Rochester surrender to Tammany, will vote for the Republican ticket, But we have heatdof no Republican who whatever his regret at some of the proceedings at Syracuse, proposes to vote for the Democratic ticket. TreEasuRs seekers, says the White Pine News, have met with success in hunting for money said to have been buried between Treasure City and Hamilton, by a man who died near Tem Piute. Two men (one the brother of the deceased) engaged the seryices of a sbiritualist, at Pine Grove, who informed them that he ‘could find the money, $11,000. Since their arrival they have been prospecting for the money as secretly as possible, Abner Goblen, a miner living on Treasure, Hill reports that they have found the money—$11,000 in greenbacks— buried in a tin can unner a bush. *“Give the Poor Fellow a Show.” _ Every man is good for something if he only strikes his forte, and Gov.

Biles F. ‘Brown, a native of Kentucky, about 49 yeart-of age, by profession a lawyer, committed suicide at Virginia City on the 23d inst, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, on the top of the International Hotel,by shooting himself with a pistol. He had becomé very dissipated lately,on account.of family troubles, and has threatened several times during the past few days to commit suicide. He was last seen alive at about 10 0’clock Sunday night. He had placed. the muzzle of the pistol in his mouth and probably diedinstantly. He has; beep in the State of Nevada sirice 1860, and in Virginia City for six or eight yeers. He was a veteran of the Mexican war, having served in a Kentucky regiment tifider General Yell. He leaves a wife and three children. Brown was formerly aresident of this city, and was—at one time foreign miners’/tax collector. From the Virginia Enterprise we obtain the following additional particulars: H. L. Bobie, who left some medicine for Brown the night before, went to his room the next-morning, and not finding him, and seeing the trap door leading to the roof open, he ascended the steps and found Brown’s body lying* sbout twenty feet away upon the flat roof. He was lying upon his back, his left hand upon his breast, and in his right he held the pistol with which he had fired the fatal shot. The evidence taken before the Coroner’s jury showed plainly that he intended to kill himself. Mr. Robie testified that Brown. had told him a dozen times within the past week that he intended killing himself. To Tom Buckner he Said that it was likely something would soon happen that would surprise him, and in that case he wanted him te write te his brother Philip, in Kentucky, and ask him for God’s sake to take care of his daughter. The verdict of the Corener’s jury was that deceased was a native of Scynthiana, Harrison county, Kentucky, that he was 49 years of age, and came -. to his death by a pistol shot fired by . his own hand. Deceased leaves a wife and three children, one his own, and two his wife’s by a former husband, in Virginia City.

He had becomé very dissipated lately,on account.of family troubles, and has threatened several times during the past few days to commit suicide. He was last seen alive at about 10 0’clock Sunday night. He had placed. the muzzle of the pistol in his mouth and probably diedinstantly. He has; beep in the State of Nevada sirice 1860, and in Virginia City for six or eight yeers. He was a veteran of the Mexican war, having served in a Kentucky regiment tifider General Yell. He leaves a wife and three children. Brown was formerly aresident of this city, and was—at one time foreign miners’/tax collector. From the Virginia Enterprise we obtain the following additional particulars: H. L. Bobie, who left some medicine for Brown the night before, went to his room the next-morning, and not finding him, and seeing the trap door leading to the roof open, he ascended the steps and found Brown’s body lying* sbout twenty feet away upon the flat roof. He was lying upon his back, his left hand upon his breast, and in his right he held the pistol with which he had fired the fatal shot. The evidence taken before the Coroner’s jury showed plainly that he intended to kill himself. Mr. Robie testified that Brown. had told him a dozen times within the past week that he intended killing himself. To Tom Buckner he Said that it was likely something would soon happen that would surprise him, and in that case he wanted him te write te his brother Philip, in Kentucky, and ask him for God’s sake to take care of his daughter. The verdict of the Corener’s jury was that deceased was a native of Scynthiana, Harrison county, Kentucky, that he was 49 years of age, and came -. to his death by a pistol shot fired by . his own hand. Deceased leaves a wife and three children, one his own, and two his wife’s by a former husband, in Virginia City.
