SPECIAL NOTICES.
TO THE VOTERS OF THE EIGHTH

LEGISLATIVE DISTRICT.
As the Union Republican Voters who recommended
JOHN NJ. POMERoY to the Independent Voters oil the
Dis trict feel that they grossly sandered by the
imputation in the Evening Bul eth" OF the 9Th inst,
that he was pledged to the support OF Edgar Cowan
for United Senator deem it proper now that tho
election is aud the excitement of the contest is
passing away to make statement of facts connected
with the movement in his favor. Mr.. Pomeroy, when
unfairly defeated in The Convention not anxious
to be nddate but expressed preference tor another
gentleman named and Willingness to support any Re-
publican candidate who might be named in opposition
to Kerns. He positively declined TO allow his
be used candidate, II the success OF our pOlltl-
cal friends in the District should at any time endan
gered by the nomination Of Democratic candidate.
Some his friends had known him the supporter
fremont in 1856 and as reliable Republican In every
contest since, and fully satisfied bat, ds Repub
lean he could be ,le0 upon in any emergency. While
he would have supported for United States Sena
ho not fully in s. mpathy with the reconstruc-
ion policy Congress- it may not be amss to state
hat he was, have doubt, the author of most If
OF ALL the editorial articles which have appeared In the
city papers-the Bulletin" inc.uded-xwhin the last
year, advocating the claims OF Phi adelphia to the
Senator.
In the Tenth Ward there is large plumber of indie
pendent Republican voters no organized the
purpose de eating the nomination incompetent and
corrupt politicians. They not political asprants
and ask tavors of the party the who
control 1t. When they are beaten fairly before the
nominating conventions they submit, but when a
ddate defeats them by corrupt measures they will,
heretofore all honorable means to defeat his cleo
ton This contest between fraud and alr play at dele
gate elections and in the conventions, has only
fairly commenced. In this Ward, and Legislative Dis
trict the Republican majority is large that nominee
of their party only be defeated by union OF the in
dependent voters with the Democrats and in the recent
contest it was partially successful without in'
volving any sacrace of principle on the part
OF the Republicans. The respectable por-
ton of the Den ocrats in the Ward and Dis trct,
knowing that they are utterly powerless TO elect
RepubcaS to that Of an e
publican PARTISAN; and hence having made no nomina-
