TO BUSINESS nIEN.

in another column of this mornings paper, We
publish circular signed By several hundred of the
best Known, the most respectable, and the most
substantial merchants of this city. These gentle
ruen are not, in the ordinary sense of that term,
politicians; but they have the good sense to see,
and the courage to say that the prosperity Of the
country demands that an end should be put to the
agitation and excitement which must inevitably
continue for four months longer should there be no
election of President by the pc Dple. They know
that there is not the remotest chance Of the cleo
ton of anybody but Abraham Lincoln, and there
fore, whatever may be their individual political
preferences, they consider it the imperative duty
of every man who wishes to see the business Of
the country resume its uninterrupted flow of pros
perity to aid 10 bringing about that result by giving
his vote for the restoration of tranquility. No
stronger evidence could be given, not only of the
apprehensions entertained by these gentlemen Of
the probable disaster which may follow the transfer
of the exciting question of Presidential election
to Winters discussion and ballotDg in Con-
gess but also of their belief of the entire safety of
intrusting the Government 10 the hands of Dir.

AS fair and honorable journalists however, We
are bound TO say that this is not the only circular
which, at this moment, is presented to the consid-
GRAFTON of the merchants of this city. There is
another, as yet circulated only in private circles,
which makes an appeal Of quite another character
Its purpose is to induce men to vote, not for
Abraham Lincoln, but against him, and not on
considerations of the public and common welfare,
but solely for the advancement of private and
selfish interests. This circular is designed ex-
clusively for Southern circulation, where SO, 600
copies are to be distributed. 1t is to be published
by Mr.. r. G. Bloomfield, No. 40 Camp street.
New Orleans, and is to be list of those traders in
this City who voted against Abraham Lincoln
Mr. Bloomfeld's agent in this City is Mr.. j.
Herbert, No. 335 Broadway, room No. %. Mr.
Herbert prefers only to be known by his initials,
j. ii. In The Herald of two or three days since,
J. II. advertised for "two gentlemanly men Of
" first-rate business ability" These two gentle
manly men must possess not only first-rate bust
ness ability, but be also "hard workers, and men
"with good references for integrity They are
wanted by j. III. "for an outdoor occupation,
and to collect money" and FL. IL. has found

THE SAILOR VOTE.

Strange as it may seem, many of the Inspectors
of Election seem to think that sailor has o right
to vote, on election day, at any port or place IN
this State he may happen to be in; although his
residence, or TIE port from which he shipped, may
be in another State. This is great mistake, and
the Inspectors should, therefore, scrutnize this
vote with great care, and fully satisfy themselves
before receiving the ballot that the seaman offering
TO vote was, before he became q seaman, and Is
now resident of the election district in which he
offers to vote.
The Constitution of this State provides that " no
" person shall be deemed to have GAINED or LOST
residence by reason of his presence or absence,
"while employed in the service of the United
d" States, or while engaged in the navigation OF
the waters Of this State or the United States, or
a." Of the high seas, nor while student of any
seminary of learning nor while kept at any
" alms-hOuse, or other asylum, at public expense,
" nor while confined in any public prison"
This clause of the Constitution means, that
person coming under either of the foregoing pro-
visions does not lose tie residence he previously
had; nor can he gain any other residence so long
as those provisions attach to him.
On Election day, he is entitled to vote wbere
his residence was before he became soldier, sea-
man. student, &c, and at no other place. Thus,
seaman, or United States soldier can vote in the
City of New York, on Election day in the election
district in which he resided before he became a
seaman or soldier and he cannot legally vote any
where else. If he did not have a residence in the
City of New-York before he became seaman or
soldier, he cannot vote here, on election day, any
more than citizen Of New-Jersey can vote here.
The vote is an Illegal one, and Inspectors of Elec-
ton should see to it, that no such votes get into the
balotbOx. If the vote is persisted 10, an arrest in
every instance should Immediately follow
1t is time the floating Illegal sailor vote Of this
City, which in great measure is colonzed vote,
should be stopped.

Lincoln gain in Ten Counties. ..f9, 223.
OF course we do not admit that this City will
give 10000 against us, nor Kings 1000, nor the
other eight, taken together, any majority at all:
we only put down these figures to show that, con-
oeding in these counties all that our antagonists
can claim, they will wipe out AL the combined ma
joIity of Buchanan and Fillmore over Fremont
and give the State to Lincoln, even though the
fifty remaining counties should give Fusion the
total combined vote of Buchanan and Fillmore.
Yet we know that the fifteen counties of Colun-
ba, Clinton, Delaware, Duchess, Franklin,
Greene, Livingston, Montgomery Monroe, Mag
ara, Orange, Richmond, ROcklsnd, Saratoga,
SchOharie, will show an average gain for Lincoln,
az contrssted with Fremont against both bis rivals,
of more than one thousand votes each, and that
nearly every county will exhibit some gain on that
vote.
We repeat that it is not possible to take Nc,c-
York from Lincoln except by gigantic fraud. That
is our only remaining danger; and to avert it
every Republican must work and watch from this
hour to that OF the closing Of the polls.

PUTTING THEM THROUGH.

Napoleon D. Hobs, q recent immigrant from
Baltimore caused his name to be registered as that
of legal voter in the With District Of the
Fifteenth Ward. He has been arrested on the com.
plant of Daniel w. Leeds, one of the Registrars
from that District and has been held to bail by
Justice Quackenbush. The penalty of his ofiense
is confinement for one year in the State Prison.
He is a merchant.
George X. Cooke, formerly private secretary to
Mayor Wood has in like manner been arrested
He acts d as one of the Registrars in the district
aforesaid, and directed his name to be registered
there, as living at No. 800 BoweIy, while he ac-
tuay lives at No. 1913 Fourth street, and is regis
tered in that district. As Registrar Mr..
Cookies crime is greater than that of merely
registering illegally, and he will doubtless be dealt
with accordingly.
This is the beginning. 1t will be vigorously fol-
lowed up.
