FITCHBURG, Oct 81, 1862
Hon. w. ". Rice NJ Dear Sir have
just received your letter of the 25th inst in
forming me that the convention for the fourth
district, held at Fitchburg on the 18th inst,
re-nomlnated me as candidate for councillor,
at the ensuing election.
accept the nomination, profoundly inn
pressed by this renewed token OF confidence
And am the more gratifed, as your letter
authorizes me to regard it as an emphatic re-
cognition and approval of my well-intended
services in behalf of the people Of the district
the current year. If the nomination is rati-
fled at the polls, shall again cheerfuly bear
the Inconvenience and sacrifice which, in my
own case, the office entails, in obedience to
the democratic idea, that, while no man has a
claim for public office, so no man has a right,
especially in time of public calamity, to de-
cline the responsibilities of office when ten
dered by the public suffrage. The national
life is i'll peril; bloody treason is rampant and
defiant, and it is no common nor idle thing
to lire, to gote, or 10 hold Office in this momen-
tous era. [ heartily deprecate the attempts
in certain quarters to fan the embers of party
strife, and even amid the thunders of war, to
stir the seething cauldron of party politics.
For myself, old party ties sit loosely, save
only those which bind me to an unconditional,
loyal, and unchanging support of all the war
measures of the state and national govern
ment. In the coming state election but two
classes will vote; and whether consciously or
unconsciously, one will be to sustain and
strengthen the executive arm in efforts to
preserve the national lite, and put down the
Shareholders rebellion, and the other to weak
en- or paarlyze that arm, and thus give aid and
comtor. to traitor foes.
Abraham Lincoln and jefferson Davis will
watch with anxiety the result of our coming
state election, as indicative to them respec-
lively of support and sympathy for the princi-
pies and policy they officially represent. l

CITY AND COUNTY.

The MEETING To-MoRRow NIGHT.-We
call attention again to the grand republican
meeting at Mechanics Hall, tomorrow (Fri-
day evening. Hon. P Emory Aldrich will
preside, and addresses will be made by Hons.
A. H. Bullock, W. W. Rice, and others.
This is probably the last general demonstra-
ton that will be made before the election.
We trust it will be the most effective. The
encouraging reports from all sections of the
state, which are daily giving a brighter as
pect to the campaign will contribute to the
interest and enthusiasm of the meeting.

trust, my dear sir, no revived and morbidly
nurtured prejudices of old party politicians,
no delusive hopes of ambitious aspirants in
new party formations" will serve to mislead
the honest voters of the commonwealth into
an unconscious position of disloyalty, or
swerve the state herself from her proud posi-
ton of alacrity, strength and persistence in
aiding the national executive to defend the
flag, the constitution, and the rights of man.
Please accept my thanks for your personal
and official courtesy, while remain, very re-
specttully, your obedient servant,

COURAGE, friends and keep the good work
going few days longer. The skies are grow
ing brighter every day. We are constantly
in the receipt of encouraging news from the
different towns of the county. Their best
men, their only new recruits, are fast leaving
the ranks of the opposition and ranging them
selves where there can be no doubt that their
votes will be on the side of their country
They are not able quite, to understand the
policy Of supporting the administration by
striking down its friends and electing its enc
mics. They remember that the rebels used
the democratic party to ruin the country and
do not quite see how patriots can use the same
party to save.it.
We know that money is being poured out
like water in two OF our senatorial districts.
to carry them against the republican candi-
dates. But these candidates will have the
confidence and support of the voters, whom
influence cannot overawe or money buy, and
we are confident that that class of voters is
decidedly in the majority in these districts,
and therefore rest confident of the result.
Work on, then good friends You can af-
ford to work little harder this year than
usual, for your action is now telling more di-
rectly for your country and humanity than
ever before, and there will not be need of
many more years of work We are Just on
the eve of triumph, long deferred but sure to
come at last You will soon have your re-
ward in the possession Of a country glorious
in strength and perfect freedom. few more
attacks upon the wavering ranks of our
broken and dispirited enemies, and victory
will be ours-victory which will be permanent
and rich in blessings.
