The Soldiers FrIend-

Governor Seymour is holding himself
up as the friend of the soldier. He
measures his regard for the soldier by
the number of commissions he issued
during the war, without deducting
those of his appointees who were not
permitted to come within the lines.
All the Governors of other loyal States
consulted the wishes of the rank and
file in the field on making appoint
ments, and endeaYored to accede to
the wishes of the ranks in offering the
regiments. But il was notorious, and
a matter of constant complaint from
the regiments in service, that Governor
Seymour gave no heed TO their wishes.
neither consulting them nor obeyiDg
wen the military rule of promotion.
He confined his commissions to his
friends" hence some would not pass
muster, and we're not allowed, by the
Federal powers to assume command,
while it was notorious that his appoint
ees were of that class who believed in
not hurting the rebels.
But what what will the true soldier
say to Seymour's claim to soldier con-
~siderAtion, in the light Of the fact that,
as Governor, Mr.. 5. vetoed the bill,
which passed the Republican Legisla-
ture of New York, allowing soldiers in
the field to vote. This was in 1868,
when two or three hundred thousand
good and lawful men and voters at
home, were in the field, and asked
that while thus confronting the enemy
they should not be denied the right TO
vote for those rulers in whose hands
were 10 be committed the personal
rights of the soldiers families, and the
protection of soldiers property, while
the soldiers themselves were periling
life in the field. The measure was
n of mere temporary nature ; to ap-
ply only to the present exigency ; to
fit a case without parallel, and without
significance as a precedent. And yet
Gov. Seymour interposed his veto.
and denied to loyal soldiers in the field
the right to vote. This is the soldiers
friend. This the man who claims
soldiers votes because he issued sixteen
thousand commissions.-GsvslaHd Her

Republicans Take Warning.
NIB. WALLACE SHOWS now To DO IT.

ME-. WALLACE SHOWS HOW To DO IT.
At Pottsville, last week, Mr.. Wallace,
Chairman of the Pennsylvania Democrat
&c Central Committed, addressed q ccnven-
ton of his party in the same language he
employs before meetings IT every county.
His speech is equally good for Republi-
cans, and in giving it we urge them 10 take
every word 10 themselves. 1t was as follows.
81 come on business, and if / can meet
you as l wish, it may be productive of
good. What business is more important
than that which tends to the presef Walton
Of the lives and property of citizens? l
ask the same attention to this in the spir-
it which you attend 10 your private bust
ness. The successful merchant attends
strictly TO the details of his business ; like
wise the mechanic and the farmer. Poll
tics is q business, and must, if we Intend
