The Republicans of Worcester met in immens'

their last rally previous to the victory of to day
to listen to a speech from John Q A. Griffin
Esq, of Charlestown. The hall was thoroughly
packed, in every part, and the enthusiasm mani

last. He spoke in the most confident strain of
the triumphant success of our cause at the polls,
this day, and his earnest and animated appeals to
the friends of Freedom to exert themselves to
the utmost in furtherance of this great object,

from Prince Gortschakoff, dated the 18th,

The enemy quilted the valley of the Up
per Balbek this morning, and returned 10 the
ridge separating il from the Valley OF Baidar.
This retreat is probably caused by our move
ment towards Tavri and Albat."
Queen Victoria and the royal family had
returned from Balmoral to Windsor Castle,
where court and privy council were held
on the 18th. Parliament was further pro-
rogued from Oct % to Dec. IL.

THE NEW NATURALIZATION LAw.-The law
of the last Legislature, in respect to naturalized
citizens, requires that city and town authorities
shall inspect the naturalization papers of foreign
born voters before putting their names on the
poll list. The fact that mans name was on the
list last year does not insure its presence there
this year. In fact strict construction of the
Law requires that the names of naturalized citi-
Gems shall be stricken from the list, and only re.
placed upon exhibition and inspection of their
naturalization papers. We apprehend the law is
not generally understood. 1t will probably be
Loaf sight Of in most towns. In some towns in
the eastern part Of the State, all names of that
Glass have been removed from the voting lists
In Amesbury, some twenty or thirty names have
been stricken off, the majority of whom have
been voters from ten to twenty years, and are
well known to the selectmen to be legal voters
In Dorchester,ths same rigid Interpretation of the
Law has been followed

The Candidate Of the Gardner party, for the
office Of COUNTY COMMISSIONER, is pledged to
favor the DIVISION OF THE COUNTY, and
it is understood that the dvisionists of all par
ties, intend voting for him, in the expectation
that he will thus obtain plurality and be elect
ed. VIII the members of the party, who are op-
posed to the dismemberment of this old and time
honored county, let their party feelings so far
prevail, as to promote such result by sustain
ing man who is openly in favor of the measure,
for an Office where his political influence may
contribute to bring the evil about? We trust
not. The present incumbent, Mr.. Wood, is we'll
known to favor the principles of the American
party, but is not an active party man. He is a
good officer. and has worked hard to sustain the
integrity of the county, and it would be passing
strange, now, if those who agree with him in his
course, should lend their aid to put divisionist
into the Office, over his head.

The Transcript of yesterday contains a com.
munication from some unhappy individual of the
Gardner party of course assailing P. W. Taft
one OF the nominees for Representative upon the
Republican ticket, for holding Office and desiring
to hold office. The anonymous writer who signs
himself Peepy" has no complaint to make, that
Mr.. Taft has not well ana faithfully performed
his official duties, in all the varied stations to
which he has been called by his fellow citizens
not at all But he seems to be actuated by a
personal dislike, and takes the aaver Using col
umns of the Transcript as the medium through
which to make his dislike known to the public.
In regard TO the nomination of Colonel Taft,
we would say that zoe kao,o that no man was ever
more fairly nominated, There was no nominal.
ing committee at the caucus, no wire pulling, or
anything of that sort. The nominations were
made in open meeting, by ballot, and there were
nearly two hundred members of the party pres
ent. If Mr.. Taft was nominated on the ticket,
it was because the Republican party, or major
ity of the party, soished him nominated, and who
has better right than majority of the voters
of party, to nominate its candidates We are
sorry that "Peepy" should feel so bad, but he
may console himself with the reflection that the
printers have made more dollars than he has
votes out Of his ridiculous attempt to write down
Colonel Taft.

New MAcHINE.-We have examined the
machine recently completed under Leander Lack
ey's patent, for pegging boots and shoes, and do
not hesitate moment to pronounce it the great
est piece of mechanical ingenuity, for this pur-
pose, constructed. 1t may be driven by
hand, foot, or other power 1t will peg all shapes
kinds, and sizes of boots and shoes, with a rapid
ity almost incredible. The shoe is placed firmly
upon common jack, which stands in the socket
of universal joint very ingeniously constructed,
so as to give the pegs the requisite slant entirely
around the shoe. The jack is brought parallel
with the awl and hammer, and by the assistance
OF space wheel connected with the awl, the boot
is made to revolve once around, pegging two
rows at the same time, or but one row, as may be
desired and will do the work on one boot or shoe
IN thirty seconds. A knife splits the pegs and
places them in wheel which carries them under
the hammer The awl perforates the leather fol-
peg, and is then carried back, and the hammer
brought alternately into the same place to drive
the peg. The right is for sale. The owner may
be found by calling at this Office. The machine
is in operation in this city, and persons DESTROYS
of permanent business might find it for their
interest to examine it. K

Vote EARLY.

Again We say to our Republican friends-vote
early in the day. Do not wait at home or in your
shop TO be sent for; but begin the day by the
performance of the freeman's duty-the exercise
Of the right Of suffrage. If the verdict of Mas
sachusetts must be in favor of the administration
Of Frank Pierce, and Of the atrocious outrsees
Of the slave olgarchy upon popular rights, in
Kanzas and elsewhere, let not it be given through
remisness OF duty On the part of any man who
claims 10 belong to the Republican party-the
only party Of Freedom.

PAssMoRE WILLIAMSON SET AT LIBRTY.-It
gives US pleasure to learn that Passmore William
son, whose unjust imprisonment has called forth
the indignant remonstr lnce of every lover of HUI
man rights. has at length obtained his freedom.
Mr.. Williamson was brought into Court on Sat
urdav, by marshal, and made affidavit that, in
in his answer to the writ of habeas corpus, he did
not intend any contempt of Court, or to evade
process of Court. An interrogatory was propoud-
ed to him by the District Attorney through the
Court, touching his power to produce the bodies
in Court, according to the mandates of the writ
which being answered negatively. after some re-
marks by the District Attorney touching Colonel
Wheelers suit for damages in the United States
Circuit Court against the defendant. and ANNOUNCE
ing his abandonment of the present habeas cor
pus proceedings, the Court discharged tbs prison
er, and he left in company with his friends.
If the above version of the matter is correct,
Judge Kane must have materially modified his
tyrannical decisions, and Mr.. Williamson therefore
comes of with flying colors.

ADDITIONAL FOREIGN NEWS.

RUSSIAN AoooUNT.-A despatch received
from st. Petersburg states that on the 10Th
Of September the Russian army attack ed
Kars. In consequence of several officers of
high rank having been killed or wounded
early in the action, the assault was unsuccess-
full.
General Mouravieff adds that, notwith.
standing their losses, the Russian troops cap.
tured IA Turkish flags, and that the blockade
OF Kars is re established on the same footing
as before the attack.
1t would appear that the Russia ms, having
gsrrisoned and proyisioned the northern fort

ing siege, are OH their retreat towards Pere.

concerted a combined signal OF attack upon
them. Sir Colin Campbell had been sent to
