Ma. JAcoBY, Sir:-You can almost hear
the Republican would-b be leaders b~oastine

lion, giving soldiers the right of voting
while IN actual service, If so they should
boast of 1t as il was The fret act OF their
party that had a tendency to enlarge the
freedom Of the white race, as all their SYM
pathies have heretofore been in favor OF the
negro. But as TO the elective franchise OF
The soldier, it is a matter of doubt whether
they are entitled TO such credit. The DEM

and as 10 the amendment of the Conslitu-
ton, the subject was not discussed al all,

had their fears about the matter, fearing
