The REPUBLICANS Of Maryland certainly
have at least as strong an interest as those
Of any State in having trustworthy man at
the helm during the next four years; and
yet, with the exception of the Post, new
penny daily published in Baltimore, and the
Examiner, a weekly paper published at
Frederick, every Republican journal in the
State, which has expressed any preference,
supports Grant. This is significant; our
Maryland friends have too much at stake to
support any man concerning whose Repub-
licanism there can be entertained reasona-
bic doubt.

Ex-Gov. Andrew of Massachusetts,.
DEAR SIR:-I understand that one of the speak

Andrew with intemperance. This ia both incor-
rect and unjust.
In the Commonwealth" Of January H. MIR.
]. w. Bird, Gov. Andrews most intimate person.
al friend says Of him, that I" he was, In the hest
sense of the term, n temperance man. In all hi,
official visits, he took care that no Intoxicating
s.rinks were ever placed upon the table, aud in
all The visits made by the Governor for the three
years that served in the council, never saw u
drop Of Intoxicating liquors offered to oi used by
the Governor ut any one of the public institutions
of the State. In his personal habits he was re-
inarkably temperate, for one whose nervous sys-
TEN was under such constant strain. Asa mi
form rule he would decline glass Of wine III the
table unless etiquette required him simply to taste
1t, and in preference would drink liz black te'
! send You this to defcld the memory OF great
and good man, whom l had the honor u know
aud love, and because our goOd great men urt 10

The Voting Right-Pefition 10 Con gress
from a Delawarenns

The Voting Right-Petiiion TO Congress
from DclaSareRn'
SNYRNA, January 10th, 1865.
MEssRs. EpfroRs ALLOW me to say a few
words to Congress, through your paper, In the
nature of petition to that body We, the col
ored people Of the State of Delaware, beg that
Congress will notice our present condition. If
we have not merIteds the right. Of Suffrage, VIC
shoald be 10th to ask for 1t. But we have fought
and bled for that right and now we petition for
II. We have been for many years downtrodden
race and we are still down. But have VIC not
always been law-abiding racei Our motto is
always to abide by the laws of our glorious COM
try. We earnestly hope that Congress will no.
tlce us, but If they do not we will put our trust
In Goo, for we know He WILL Since lie has de-
cared that she that putteth his trust in Nc shall
not be confounded," we will not be like the
South, who having no reason to rebel, did SO With
out Justification, but II we are not granted the
right of suffrage we will submit and leave 1t In
tho hands OF an Almighty and Merciful God, who
we know will give us Justice, for He doeth all
things well.
And furthermore, will say that we love this
country, and all we ask is, have we not proved
our love for IL? Are there not many of our race
that have already died fighting for this country
and for Its liberties? And yet we have not equal
rights. And will say to the friends and FOES Of
our race-do you think it right that yon should
labor for money and not obtain its And yet the
drops of sweat arc not us precious as the drops
Of blood, that we have shed In defence OF the
country. Our sufferings have not been endured
for nothing, but in the hope of receiving those
rights which we have not yet obtained. We
trust that this may have due deiberatlon by both
our friends and our enemies. 1t was you who
put the muskct in our hands, and did We not
know how to use it? Now we ask that you will
put the ballet in our hands, and we will show
y,u that we know how to Use 1t also.

The OPERA.-The German opera troupe
opened in Martha, last night, and under no
inconsiderable difficulties either. They
missed connection and did not arrive until
7.3O, having come down from Port Byron on
the steamer Entorprize, Weary and
supPerless as they were they repaired
to the opera house and dressed for the
opera. The overture was very finely per.
formed by an orchestra of fifteen. The sew.
eral roles were judciously distributed Cla
ra Lang appeared as that petulant young wo
man, Lady Harriet, tNartha;) and Frederi.
ci as the rollicking maid of honor, Nancy
Steineohe was sufficiently comical, good ma,
tured, aud stupid, as Plunkett; aud Himmer
sighed like a furnace as the love sick Lionel.
The acting was excellent, though the fe-
male chorus was hardly large enough.
Among songs and Ohoruses that we're beau
tifully rendered, were the portars and hun.
tresses' chorus, Aappari tut amor, and
that oDterpolated melody, "the last rose of
summer
s1o'n'ght that most popular Of all comic
operas, Fra DiaOoLO, will be produced with
the full strength Of the company.

ARE You REGISTERED ?--Do you know
that your name is on the register? If you
do not You had better look at the list posted
for public inspection, at the place of the
meeting of the board. If your name
is not there, then go, on the 9th,
and have it placed there. In townships
where the vote exceeds 200 the board will be
in session the 9th and 28th,-and in cities
the board must meet at o'clock in the
morning, and remain in session until 9 in
the evening. In other districts from 9 in
the morning until in the afternoon. If
you do not register you will have to vote by
affidavit, and this is an unnecessary trouble
to all concerned-an annoyance to the vo-
ter to make his affidavit, and look up his
witness; an annoyance to the board TO keep
his affidavit on file and hindrance to
other voters who have to wait for the affida.
