ELKTON, AUGUST 10, 1865.
To the Union Voters of the
County,.

A wrong impression appears to have gone
abroad, particularly amongst the Union
voters of this county, that their names will
be registered, as voters by the officers of
registration phether they appear in person
before the Board of their respective Districts
or not We will repeat again what we have
published before, no mans name will be
placed on the list who does not appear in
person and order ii done. And further. the
evidence in most cases is so meager against
the rebels, that there will not be hundred
in the county DISTINGUISHED. The active
Union men throughout the county should
make it their specie, business to go imme-
diately to work and be sure to send every
Union man forward and have him registered;
for al. their votes will be needed this fall.
Bear it in mind that eceiy man must
appear in person before the Registering Off,
GERS and hare his name entered on the roll,
or he cannot cote at the approaching election.
DR.. Ohrs opinion to the contrary notwith-
standing.

A MONUMENT TO THE REV. JOSEPH
7. BRowN is being executed at the Elkton
Marble Works, by Mr.. Edward Carr, which
will be alike creditable to the skill of the
sculptor, and the munifcent spirit of the
subscribers to the fund which was raised to
erect so handsome tribute in memory of
one of Ceci's most esteemed good men.
The monument when completed will be
erected in the Methodist burying ground at
Cherry Hill, where the remains of him whose
memory will be ever cherished by those who
value the pure in heart, are deposited.
The monument is of Italian marble, feet
base and ~ feet 2 inches high, of Gothic
die, and Octagon shaft, surmounted by a
final. The North side bears the inscription:

SUDDEN DEATH.-Dr. James Copper died
suddenly at his residence, in New Castle,
Del, last Saturday. He had attended tc
his usual duties through the day and retired
apparently in the enjoyment Of his nsua
health. Sometime afterwards Mrs. Coupel
was awakened by a stroke with his hand,
and on getting up found that he was about
expiring. 1t is said that his death was pro.
duced by an affection of the heart. He was
something over sixty years Of age, was con-
sidered one Of the best physicians in the
State, and was highly esteemed by all who
knew him. His decease is not only loss
to his family, but to the community where
he resided.

CULPABLE CARELEssNEss IN THE MAIL De.
PARTMENT-We have great many complaints
recently Of the miscarriage of The mails
The Wings for several weeks have failed to ar
rive at their places of destination for, in some
instances, several days after they should
have been delivered. At Bay View they
were not received until Wednesday, when
they should have reached there on the pre-
vious Saturday at noon. Two weeks before
they did not reach Zion until Tuesday, when
they should have arrived on Saturday,
These are two instances, and such complaints
are constantly being made. We have reason
to believe that the neglect is on the cars.
There appear to be some mail agents on
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad who either are so ignorant of their
duty or care so little about performing it that
they let the mails attend to themselves. Is
the public forever to be imposed upon by
the Post Office department, which seems to
delight in employing numbers of agents who
should never be trusted except Immediately
under the eye of master? How long, oh
how long! is this curse to continue? The
war being over, no excuse from that source
is left them. Will the department do its
duty by driving from its employ such god.
less, graceless employees, who care for
nothing but receiving from the treasury their
salary, and put in their places honest, sober,
and faithful agents? Or will it continue to
harrass the community by imposing upon ii
set Of mail agents that are wholly incom-
Detent?
