There are three reasons why the Board should
not have received this vote. The tirst alone
was considered sufficient by the Democratic
Judge, Mr. {. B. Renningcr, who has given
another proof Of his stubborn honesty. even
when his strongest preiudices were assaulted,
In the first place, James r. Little was the
person delegated 10y Demuth to offer his
vote. In t'le letter OF attorney he soiemnly
declares t!iat no other person had been

MIR. EDrTon IT can not refrain from
giving you an idea of tho feeling existing
throughout tho soldiers on McrriS Island,
regarding the recent Chicago Convention.
The whole talk from morning till night Is
of the coming election, and the traitors OF
north who talk of compromise. We did not
begin the war and we have suffered too
much to compromise with traitors. When
the rebellion is totteriug on its last legs. All
we soldiers ask Is, that Father Abraham. be
elected four years more, which have not the
least doubt but what he will, everything
looks very favorable SO far. l will assure
you that the soldiers will do everything
that lays in their power towards electing
him if the people at home will be as truo at
the coming Presidential election as the sci.
diers are Lincoln will be elected 10y large
majority, and this rebellion will uudcdbted
ly bc crushed in very short time. We are
all tired cf this rebellion, the soldiers as well
us the people at home. We would all like
to sec peace, but peace we cannot have until
