We owe an explanation 10 our readers
this morning for the non.appesrance OF
the Presidents message, which was read in
both houses of Congress yesterday. Wesup-
posed that all the necessary arrangements
had been made for its delivery to us in due
course of the afternoon dispatches. Nothing
to the contrary was intimated to US up to
within few moments of the first click of the
magnet at the telegraph Office, announcing
that it was coming. Then We were inform
ed that for an unprecedented price we
could have it. We instantly agreed to the
price, exhorbitant as we considered 1t. a
few moments thereafter we were told that
tho Register would not pay the price as
we had agreed to do, and that if we still
desired to receive the message we must pay
double what we had agreed upon. We
of course Indignantly refused to be thus
put through, and declined the MESSAGE
which accounts for its absence in our pa
per this morning.
We make this explanation so that our
readers may understand that it is not for
the want of any proper spirit of enterprise
on our part that we are for the first time in
our lives behind with the message. We
were asked to pay price that no one :pa-
per in any town twice or thrice the size
of Wheeling was called upon to pay-a
price that we could not in justice to our
current expenses afford to pay.
We shall set the message up to-day from
a copy by the mails, and it will appear we
trust in a more correct form tomorrow
morning than if we had depended upon the
telegraph. We mention this fact as one
of the compeusatiOns for days delay
Our experience has taught US that it is next
to impossible to get correct copy of a
long document by the wires, We doubt
not that our readers generally prefer to
wait one day rather than stumble through |
and uncertain sentences,

Visited few Of the polls in this city to-
day, to see in what manner the people are
permitted to vote. | went with the expec.
tation Of seeing the form Of justice display.
ed at least, but even that is dispensed with.
The most palpable frauds nation ever
grcancd under have been enacted this dav.
The process is this: "A person enters and
says ne wishes to vote. ANDY Johnson
test oath is read to him, which he swcars
to, and then an abolition ticket is thrust
into his hand, (for there is no others) and
be gives his name. That's the whole pro.
ceeding. No more questions asc asked, and
he is permitted to vote at other polls il he
sees fit to do so; or he may return, and,
under another name, vote again, or rs many
times A. he wants to, provided he has new
name each time. One Of the polls IS COM
pletcly surrounded with negroes that ere
voting. It ID 10 crowded that foot passen.
gers have to cross on the other eide. A
negro stands At the door, and takes the
names and tickets, (the form Of an oath Il

As to the terms Of social intercourse, it
seems somehow to be settled in the minds
Of many employers that their servants owe
them and their families more respect than
they and the family owe to the SERVANTS
But do thcy9 What is the relation Of ser
want to cmpl,ye in . democratic country
Precisely that Of q person who for money
performs any kind Of service for you. The
carpenter comes into your houses to put up
q set Of shelves = the cook comes into your
kitchen TO cook your dinner. You never
think that the carpenter owes you any more
respect than you owe to him because he is
in your house doing your behests; he is
your fellow citizen, you treat him with res.
pect, you expect to be treated with respect
by him. You have = claim on him that he
shall do your work according to your d.
rections,-no more. Now, apprchcnd
that there is very common notion rs to
the position and rights Of servants which is
quite different from this. Is it not COM
mon feeling that servant is one who may
be treated with degree Of freedom by ev-
cry men b r Of the family, which he pr she
may not return? Do not people feel at lib
erty to question servants about their private
affairs, to comment on their dress and ap.
pearance, in manner which they would
feel to be an impertinence, if reciprocatcd ?
DO they not feel at liberty to express dissat-
isfaction with their performances in rude
and uncerenonious terms, to reprove them
in the presence Of company, while yet they
require that the dissatisfaction of servants
shall be expressed only in terms Of respect
A woman would not feel herself at liberty
to talk to her milliner or her dress maker in
language as devoid of consideration as she
will employ towards her cook or chamber
maid. Yet both are rendering her service
which she pays for in money, and one is no
more made her inferior thereby than the
other. Both have an equal right to be treat
ed with courtesy. The master and mistress
Of house have right to require respect
full treatment from all whom their roof shell
tiers, but they have no more right to exact
it Of servants than Of every guest and every
child, and they themselves owe it as much
to servants as to guests.
The complaints made of Irish girls are
numerous and loud; the failings Of green
Erin, alas are but too open and manifest !;
yet, in arrest Of judgment, let us move this
consideration; let US imagine our own
daughters, between the ages of sixteen and
twcnty-four, untaught and inexperienced in
domestic affairs rs they commonly arc, ship
ped 10 foreign shore to seek service in
families. 1t may be questioned whether, as
. whole, they would do much better. The
girls that fill our families and do our house.
work are often Of the age Of or own daugh.
tsrs, standing for themselves, without moth
crs to guide them, in a foreign country, not
only bravely supporting themselves, but
sending home in every ship rcmittances to
impoverished friends left behind. If our
daughters did as much for us, should VIC
not be proud Of their energy and heroism !
