Editors of the Register:
| merely write to let you know how
the election was conducted at this pre-
cinct. The voting began about 10
o'clock in the morning and continued
until about in the afternoon, at which
time all the voters, or nearly all, had
left. So far all was very well; but the
strangest part yet remains to be told
Instead Of the Super,ntendents and In
spectors proceeding to close the polls,
as is customary, they gathered up the
poll books and ballot box, and away
they went, whereto l do not know, and
there in secret conclave, with no eye to
scrutinize their villainy, they closed the
poll books and counted the votes on the
dav after the election. This may be
lawful, but is it right for set of un-
principled mongrel conductors OF an
election to adjourn over to another day
and place to close the polls, miles away
/ from the election precinct, III order that
they can manipulate the election IN
favor of their party' For one, | think
it is not right, and the people should
do their best to hurl such men from
place and power; for such men, instead
of guarding the ballot box, will only

The deceased was one of our most valued citizens
An INDUSTRIOUS working, honest man. No one is so
reckless as to cast an imputation on his character. A
resident here since 1856; active in business: upright
in every sense, it is not strange that those Of us who
knew him best saw with sorrow that he, as many
others of old and cherished memories, was marked
for the narrow house to which all are tending. What
a myth is Life! Here, to-day, in its active duties, to-

p. Melendy, Esq, Chairman Republican
State Central Committee:
Dear Sir.-Your letter above, assessing
me $25 for assisting in the election of the
Republican candidates, is received and
duly considered. The following, among
other considerations, induce me respectful
ly to decline paying the amount assessed
to me.
LIST. My treasury department is not
just now sufficiently plethoric to admit of
such depletion rs you prescribe.
I'd. l an about starting to discharge
the functions of q delegate to the Demo-
cratic Convention at New York, and shall
probably require what small change l
have at command to defray expenses.
3. ! am opposed from principle to large
expenses for the celebration of funeral
~obsequies and think it quite as we'll to let
the party you represent go down to its
final rest quietly.
4. / don't think the investment will pay,
your old hulk is too rotten for repairs. and
my advice is that you let her go to the
bottom, and that you save the treasurer
for some more laudable enterprise.
It occurs to me that inasmuch as the
Republican party is the interest of the
bond holders of the country, and opposed
to equal taxation, that the meney neces.
sary to run your party the coming cam.
paign should be raised from them instead
of calling on the friends Of Pendleton and
equal taxation.
= Very respectfully,
r. S. RARpwELL.

SoLDIERs.-In the call issued by the SOL
diers of Connecticut for a State Conven-
ton to choose delegates to New York, the
following reasons are given for the issu-
ance of the call :
"The condition in which we find our
country, after more than three years OF
profound peace, renders it natural and
proper that we should consult together
and inquire why the political party con-
trolling the affairs Of government-ignor-
ing all those pledges made to US at the
time of our enlistment and during the pro-
gress Of the war-has refused to recognize
the success of our arms ; has treated the
attempt at secession as an accomplished
fact and has appropriated years Of time
and millions Of the peoples money for
projects of reconstruction, not only un-
called for and unnecessary, but clearly I'M
constitutional and revolutionary.
After three years of entire control Of
the Government, during a period of peace
throughout its limits, the party that has
proven itself unable to bring harmony to
the body polite, but only discord, i'll
feeling, r%uinous Indebtedness, and taxation
by inaugurating schemes for the depletion
Of the treasury for the erection Of Mill
tary depotism within the Union ; for the
destruction Of coordinate branches of the
government; for the overthrow Of States
for the degradation Of large portions oil
our people, by placing civilization in sub
ordination to barbarism and for disgra-
dak our nation in the eyes Of tke civilized
world, is no longer entitled to our consid-

PAY Ir.-No Democrat proposes to re-
pudiate the public debt. W. ask the terms
only of the contract. The debtor who pro.
poses to pay, in the future, more than he
agreed to, may we'll be suspected of an
intention to defraud. If the democracy
prefer present payment in the same legal
tenders which the bonds require and
common folks are compelled to take, are
they justly chargeable with IN attempt to
repudiate? Let the RAIDS keep rushing the
cry of "repudiation" and demanding that
Stewart of New York, the Merchant Prince
as he is called, be paid more than he agreed,
BY LAW, to take for his SLOAN and you
willsprout actual Reputation pretty rapid
". When men are rendered lawful money
on q debt that is due and they decline to
receive it, their suits for recovery after
that will be at their own costs.
Our public debt in the fall of '67 was
three thousand millions, 2, 100000 900 Of
it in liquidatcd form and bears interest
and SOC, O00,0 600 in greenbacks and unliq-
Undated claims and bears no interest. All
these will be paid as per contract unless
the Shylocks Of Wall street insist upon
blood along with their pounds of flesh. We
give no blood to appease the demands of
Avarice. The sharks may forfeit all, as
did the fend of Venice, by demanding
more than they are entitled to. BY de-
manding more than justice requires they
may get less than generosity might now
accord them. A robbcr, whether occupy
ing a parlor or a forest has no rights
which honest labor is bound to respect.
While bond -holders are looking to their
interests the Industrious farmer and me-
chanic is looking to his.
Keep looking that way &c sons Of Toll!
Your wives and children ask you to pro-
tect them from those who would make
them mere serfs, hewers of wood and draw
ers Of water. The ballot-box is the de-
fender of your homes.
