Ny DEAR JUDGE 1t gives me great
pleasure to know that you fullyappreciate
the consequences to all business men, in.
deed, every one Eavlng53srrl interest in the
prosperity of Our country, that must re-
suit from the election Of General Grant.
The question is presented to the peo-
pie, whether they will aid in electing an
administration bent upon trampling loyal
ty into the dust, and elevating upon its
ruins, power controlled by Rebel Chiefs,
whose motto will be '.The Rebellion Viz
dicated," with prostration to every branch
of industry and business at the North
or, whether we should place in the Ex-
ecutiye Mansion one emphatically of the
people, who has never acted except from
d just sense of duty to his country, and
from VIII Sc administration we will have
all the blessings that can flow from peace
in every department of our Government,
inspiring confidence that cannot but lead
us to prosperity and happiness as nation,
aud future promising for US, unequalled
In tie history Of the past.
To secure this end [ accept your gen
erous contribution, and will apply it to
such proper uses as may tend to bring
about a result SO full of promise Of bless
ings to us all.

Alexander Mitchell, when nominal
ted for Member of Congress shook his
money bags in the faces of the voters of
First District, and said "with these |
shall win my election" The result is
that the said voters resent the gross in
suit, and not few Democrats have Joined
hands with the Republicans and are
working with an energy that certainly
deserves success. The Germans espec-
tally are disguised with the corruption
attempted by Mitchell and his friends,
and on the Sd of November the count of
votes will surprise the sanguine Democ-
racy who think that money is all that is
needed to carry an election. Such may
be the case in England, but free Ameri-
ca is not yet to be controlled by the
bribery Of few moned aristocrats.

DISTRICT CONFERENCE.-THE LIST AS
sembly District Convention met, pursuant
to call, at the Farmers House, in this
city, on Monday last, and nominated Eli
jah r Adams, of Ixonia, for Member Of
Assembly, and Timothy G. Daily, of the
Town of atertown, for Supervisor.
Of Mr.. Adams it is scarcely necessary
thatwe should speak-he came to the town
where he still lives over thirty years ago,
and is one Of our best known and most
highly respected citizens. IF real merit
and requisite ability and qualifications
could secure the election, Mr.. Adams
would be our next Assemblyman.
Timothy G. DAILY, our candidate for
Supervisor in this District, is an excel
lent nomination. Mr.. DAILY is an Irish
man by birth, and a prosperous farmer of
the town of Watertown, where he has
lived for the last twenty four years. He
has long been known as firm and con-
sistent Republican, and the nomination is
a deserved compliment worthily bestowed.
By his long residence in this vicinity,
Mr.. DAILY has become thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with the wants Of the district, and
if elected, as he surely ought to be, he
will bring to the discharge Of the duties
of the office, an excellent business capaci-
ty and large sexperience. We shall ex-
pcct to sec this popular candidate receive
very large aud tfattcring vote,

W. w. BOWERS,

of Oakland, the candidate for Clerk of
the Board of Supervisors, is the right
man in the right place He enlisted in
the lst Wisconsin Cavalry, and as we can
testify personally, was brave and faith
full soldier. He has tie business exper-
fence and qualifications necessary for the
office to which he is nominated, and his
social qualities, genilemanly demeanot
and excellent business capacity would
render him very popular officer,

No. Very Easily Gazzled.

At the reunion of the officers of the
91st Regiment at Portsmouth, Ohio, last
week, when the wine began to make
itself felt upon every hand, Sergeant,
named Steece, taking advantage of the
opportunity, wanted the officers present
to ..drink to Grant as the next President
of the United States" This was
promptly settled by an open refusal of
concurrence. An amendment was then
offered that they "drink to him as the
best General Of the aoar." This was
squelched and the General would have
got off without an expression in his favor
if it had not been for Capt. N. w. Evans,
who moved to drink to Grant as merely
a soldier. This was done, and the hero
of Savannah and the Wilderness as well
as the circus ring, was placed by his
brother officers where he properly be-
longs. There is no use in talking
Grant is only appreciated by stay-at-
home Radicals and policy trimmers, and
it is only through such men that he re-
ceives attention.-People's DEFENDER.

-FooIscap Paper.

Every kind of paper is known by the
stationer, by its name: quarto post, Svo
post; foolscap, etc. The term foolscap
90 designate certain kind Of paper no
doubt has puzzled many a young inquirer.
The origin is not only amusing but histor-
ical. Charles /, of England, granted nu-
merous monoplies for the support of the
Government. Among others was the
manufacture of paper. The water mark
of, the finest sort was the Royal Arms of
England. The consumption of this ar
ticle was very great at this time, and
large fortunes were made by those who
had purchased the exclusive right to
vend it. This among other monoplies,
was set aside by the parliament that
brought Charles the I to the scaffold;
and by way of showing their contempt
for the king they ordered the royal arms
taken from the paper. and fool with his
cap and bells to be substituted. 1t is
now over 200 years since the foolscap
bells was taken from the paper, but still
the paper Of the size, which the rump
Parliament ordered for their journals,
bears the name of the water marks then
ordered as an indignity to Charles.

The Nominations for Saratoga.

In another column we have the nomi-
nations for the Cup, the Two-and-a-half-
mile Sweepstakes, and the Sequel
Stakes, to be run at the next Saratoga
meeting. The Cup contains twenty
nominations. Among them is to be
found the name Of Kentucky, who has
won it twice, but. not that of Muggins,
who won it last year. Kentucky is the
only aged horse in. The only six-year-
old in is Onward. The fve-year-olds
are Extra, Red Dick, and Lancaster.
The four-year-olds form strong lot
Dickens. Gen. Yorke, Metairie, Nor
rissey,iJ. A. Connolly, Fanny Cheat
ham,. and Transit. But the three-year-
olds are also strong-Gen. Duke, Step
pingstone, Relentless, Fanny Ludlow,
Sarah B., Brother to Asteroid, La Polka,
and Spinola. Now, unless the bold Ken
lucky is up to the mark, he will have
good deal of trouble to keep out of the
way of such nimble youngsters as Gen
eral Duke, Spinola, Relentless, Fanny
Ludlow. and Brother to Asteroid, to say
nothing of such four year olds as Fanny
Cheatham, Dickens, Metairie, etc. In
the sweepstakes to carry 100lbs. there
are twelve nominations, mostly Of horses
also engaged in the Cup. AS a matter
of course the three and four-year-olds
have not entered in this. Kentucky is
in. In the Sequel Stakes, two miles, for
three-year-olds, there are seventeen
nominations, and among them there are
some whose fame is already great. The
Chilicothe stable leads off with
General Duke and Bayonet. The
Annieswoood stable follows with
Magnet, son of Lexington ard grand
son of Stockwell. Relentless, Fanny
Ludlow, and Boaster appear for the
Holmdell stable. Mr.. Sanford has in
La Polka and Brother to Asteroid; and
Mr.. Swigert relies upon the fine daugh-
ter of Australian and imp. Sdiletta-
Col. McDaniels has three engaged, and
Bowie & Hall, Mr.. Pennock, and Mr..
Carter one. Captain Moore brings up
therear guard with the gray colt by Lex
ington cut of Grisette, by Glencoe. This
will be an exceedingly interesting race,
and the western stables, with General
Duke, Bayonet, Spinola, and the Girls
cite colt, will make tough fight for it
with the eastern division.-N. Y. Spirit.
