RoLLERsvILLE, July 18th, 1863.
Mr.. MARTIN VANHoRN-Dear Sir: embrace
the opportunity of writing you line, bearing
political nature. Election time is coming and
you soldiers are permitted to voice in the Sc
lection of our officers, so that while you are
fighting with your guns you can also fight with
the ballot as we do at home l am yet DEM
ocrat and always will be while remain above
the sod in the y. s. A. for in that party (the
Democracy is the salvation of our beloved coun-
try, the Union as it wasl-and the Constitution
as it is. 1t is my determination as Democrat
to maintain free speech, free press, and free
ballot at all hazards, at the same time presum-
ing you are such, and if so do not permit your
self to be lead away into the doctrine of the alb
Olitionists for it only prolongs the rebellion and
makes it more vigorous, but support the Con-
stitution at the ballot box in the name of c. L.
Vallandigham. We are all good Vallandigham-
ers, here in Madison we can give him two to
one this fall.
But no more at present. Yours truly,
ID. S. HENRY.

WAITIN &.

We wait with quiet, trustful smile
Nor count the waiting vain
For truth to dissipate all guile
And break Old Errors chain.
We watch the blacken'd cloud above,
The frown on Heavens brow,
And know Fathers tender love
Is yearning for us now
Now, when the gallant Ship of State
Seems sinking meath the wave
Left to a cruel, hopeless fate,
With no arm stretched TO save.
We note the gallant Ship at sea
Struggling and tempest tossed,
And feel that she is almost free:-
The gulf will soon be crossed.
Old laws old forms have passed away
The welcome Anew" is here
Strength firmly stands where knelt Decay
Joy smiles, where grumbled Fear.
We hush each pain, soothe every care,
And leave all things to Heaven:-
For unto those who ne or despair,
Gods gracious loveis given

Good News from the State.

Wisconsin is to-day Democratic by from
