The Vote OF the Soldiers.

Notwithstanding the insiduous effort
made by the Copperheads of Chicago to
gull the soldiers by hypocritcal expires,
sion of sympathy the election in Novem-
Der promises to be one sided affair, as
far as their votes are concerned. The
results of the impromptu elections held
at the various hospitals and camps pretty
clearly indicate this. Perhaps this style
Of canvassing is worthy of little note in
ingle instances, but when an aggregate
s presented, its importance cannot be
overlooked. True the votes thus cast are
but straws, yet they plainly show which
way the wind is blowing. They unmis
takably demonstrate that the soldiers are
a unit in their support of the principles
for which they are heroically cohtendinl
on the field, and that their hearts Civ,
