% Senator Davis stated the other day in the
Wing County Convention, that the secret ballot
law required the voter to make personal application
to the Secretary of the Commonwealth for an EN-
veope in which to deposite his vote We heard
HIM distinctly, and wrote the remark down on the
instant. There is no such provision in the law nor
anything from which such an inference could be
drawn, and, therefore, his statement was positively
untrue. He said, further, that the voter, by the
provisions of the law, was obliged, after his vote
was sealed up, TO show it TO the inspectors, and
asked in an exultant tone how that was to be done,
when the envelope containing his vote was sealed
up Neither is there any such provision as this in
the law; and we repeat, again, that we never be-
held more pitiable sight, than "Honest John Da-
vs' bartering. the reputation for veracity and fairness
which he once enjoyed, in exchange for such small
amount of political capital, to help his party out
of the slough of despond In which it has been cast.
The law says, in just many words, that 'eEach
voter, when depositing his ballot, shall hold it in
such manner that the inspecting officers can dis
tinctly see whether more than one is placed in the
ballot box, Hand this is all he had TO make this
mlsstatement out Of
We refer to this subject again, simply because
our former statement has subjected US to vitupera-
tive remarks in the whig papers, both here and in
Boston, That Gov Davis made the statements at
trbuted 10 him, we can produce the most abundant
proof, and the Transcript and its coadjutors would
better consult his reputation, by reconcling his
statements to the truth, or explaining how he came
to make such egregrious blunders, than by filing
their abusive epithets on us, forstating what more
than fifty persons heard, and what Gov. Davis
himself will not deny.

be brought against in, when fairly represented and
| correctly understood. Ifit were inconvenent and
odious in the manner of its operation, would not
free soers and democrats suffer from it, equally
with the wings? Why, then, it may be asked,
should the wings specially make it such Il promi-
nent object of attack? The answer to this ques-
ton is very easy. II is simply and solely because
they fear its effects upon them, as party. They
dare not trust the people to act according to the
convictions of their own judgments, as they will
be enabled to, under the operation of this law and
therefore they kick against it.
In England, the aristocracy, though few in num-
bers are enabled, by their wealth. through the piva
roce system of voting, to cOatrol the elections and
10 keep the power in their own hands 1t is well
known that their tenantry and dependents rarely
dare to vote against them In the Southern States.
the slave holders, though not fifth part of the pop
ulaon, yet, possessing the wealth of those States.
can, and do, by the same mode of voting, control
the elections, completely as if no others were al
lowed TO vote; and all their legislation has special
reference to the interests of the slave power, Like
always allies itselftO its like Identity of interests
Of action. The money power of the
north naturally seeks the alliance ofthe money power
otthe south which is the slave holding interest. The
wings of the north control the corporation and MON
~ power of the north, and they seek by means sim
lar to those employed by their allies at the SOUTH to
control our elections and thus to retain the political
power in their own hands. The open ballot gives
hem, to considerable extent, a similar power with
that of the viUa uoce vote at the SOUTH The abo-
on of the open ballot, and the return to the orig.
nalprlmltve secrecy of the ballot, deprves them
of that power, and for this reason, and for this rea
son alone, do they so violently oppose it, and seek
to create preudices against it, in the hope, eventu-
ally, to overthrow it. But we trust their efforts
will be unavailing, that the people, seeing the man
liest advantages of the law, will cling to it and sus-
tain It, and by SO doing sustain their rights, and
transmit them unimpaired to their posterity
