letter to the keeper of the railroad eating house at
Hornesvle, Y. 1t explains itself while it stag
gers all ones preconceiyed ideas Of travelling
morality:
Boston, July II, ls57.-Dear Sir: judge by my
purse that must have paid you for my supper at
Hornellsville on Wednesday night with bogus half
dollar. At any rate l had such piece, and now l
have it not. Enclosed are postage stamps to the
amount of fifty cents If am mistaken, let some
poor hungry soul have meal without charge some
time when they happen along, as doubtless they
often do.
Respectfully yours,

The ss Democracy in Motion.

The Democratic County Convention for
Ramsey County, met yesterday, and made
the nominations which are given in our re-
port of its proceedings. Some of the men put
forth are tolerably good for the positions des-
ignated some will fill their places indiffer-
emily well, if elected; others will prove very
bad officers, and one or two will prove intol-
erable. In this latter category we class
WIN. P. MURRAY, the nominee for District
Judge. We make no assault upon Mr.. MUIR
RAYS personal character, or attempt any de-
traction from his former services as legisla-
tor, when We say that he has no character
whatever where he is known as lawyer,
and consequently is not the man for Judge
of any District in the State, to say nothing
of his being Judge of this Judicial District
But we suppose he will be elected because
the " Democracy" of Ramsey say so !!
To-day the State and Territorial Convcn-
tion of this party assemblies at the Capitol
We shall spread before our readers full ac-
count Of its doings as it progresses.

Two Elections Oh the Same Day.

The fact has, perhaps, not suggested itself
to many that we are to have two elections
OH the 18th Of October-a State election
and Territorial election. We were about
to explain the law on this subject when the
following reference to it in the Henderson
Democrat met our eye:
tits highly necessary judges of elections should
understand the laws which will govern the elections on
the 18th of October
The election will be held under the Constitution, for
ali State officers and for OF against the ratication OF
the Constitution, at which all free white male persons
the aye of years. who have resided ten
days in the Territory, will be entitled TO vote
Another election will be held, ander the Iaacs OF the
Ieryto,.y for Delegate to Congress, and county and
precinct officers at which those only will be entitled to
vote who have resided six months in the Territory, two
years in the United States, and f of foreign birh shall
have filed declaration to become citizens OF the United
States.
We believe that two boxes should be used in each pre-
cinct with two sets of Judges and clerks If but
ballot is used all who may claim to vote for State
officers would have to exhibit open tickets to the Judges
of election.
should this Immediately, and make such arrange
will uniformity of action, the part of
the Democrats party at least Both parties should act
the subject may be understood throughout the Terri
tory.
The above is, no doubt, the correct ground
to take in this matter. AS there are two
records to be kept at the polls, and two class
es of voters to exercise the right of suffrage
under two different organizations of govern
ment, ofcOurse there must be two ballot box
es, and two sets ofjudges and clerks.
The Republican Central Committee has
llrcary taken action to let these facts be
known to the people, and no doubt will be
happy to cooperate with the Democratic
Committee in securing uniformity through
out the State
