TO the Editor Of the State Journal
WHAT was the intention of voting by
ballot?
Was it not intended TO secure every man
10 his preference Of voting for whom he
chose
Yet, in the precinct over which Mr.. Da-
vid B. Jones presided, voter, who at
tempted to hand his ticket to the officer
presiding, much to his surprise, and not
only to the surprise of himself, but that Of
the said presiding officer, had his ticket Ia
ken from his hand-that is, the voters
hand-which was scanned and inspected.
Such an indignity--such an outrage
was never before perpetrated in the annals
OF Richmond. What more could be ex-
pected, when some three or four young
men, possessing no property interest, or
any other interest-Conservativ bitter
servatives-arrogated to themselves the
right to question any mans vote; and ruled
in the precinct in question, not from intelli-
gence, not from honesty, most assuredly not;
but from impudence and assurance, direct
brass, in quantity sufficient to compose
a Interrogation preserving kettle. No, not
preserving, for nothing can preserve such
youngsters from the fate which is decreed--
that is, being suspended between heaven
and earth upon two uprights and cross
bar, unless they discover the error of their
ways, and endeavor to exhibit some show
of courtesy, gentility and responsibility.
But why expect such things2 Such re-
suit is morally impossible. Aud yet is it
not astonishing that men who, if they have
ever read anything, should not know the
consequences that would flow from such
: action, could be guilty Of an act which, if
prosecuted, would consign them to Sing
Sing prison, as well as mulct them in
tine which lifetime would not suffice to
discharge. But so it is. The ways of the
world are astonishing, if not more 50.

"Don'l tell Betsey Jane ~

"And for your life, don't tell Betse,
Jane ~
Mr.. Nicodemus Harding, having uttered
this caution in low, earnest tone of voice
alighted from Concord wagon in front o
his own farmhouse door, and stood there
few minutes in brown study, watching
the figure of his brother-in-law and thu
lawyer, as he drove back towards the vii.
lage of W, whence the two men hac
just come.
Don't tell Betsey janet"
Now, Betsey Jane was Mr.. Nicodemus
Harding's wife, stirring, notable soul
who made more butter and cheese, and
took more eggs and fowls to market 10 the
course of season than any other woman
for miles around. Strong, healthy and
hearty, she made the house work f]y. to
use her own energetic expression aud ii
Nicodemus Harding owned his farm that
day, and was well-to-do, in fact a rich
man to boot, it was owing in no small
measure to the skill and energy and gen.
eral Observation-Disclosures of his Betsey Jane.
What was it, then, that the ungrateful
man was not about to tell her?
sit would never do, never I" thought
Nicodemus to himself, shaking his head
"She'd be wanting a new carpet, or a new
silk gown, or the house all painted over,
or some such nonsense. No, the woman
is the weaker vessel. it won't do to trust
one too fan. Their heads won't bear it."
So Mr.. Nicodemus passed through the
house, and out toward the barn, with the
pre- occupied air of hen who has an egg
to lay, and don't know where she can hide
it from the eyes of mankind to the best
advantage. The kitchen was empty and
silent as he went through it. But oh if
ne could have seen the buxum, cookbook
ing female who stole silently out of the
pantry, and as silently followed him on
his way toward the barn.
Mrs. Harding came back in about
twenty minutes or SO, with a face red from
laughter.
Don't tell Betsey Jane, she said, gig
Cling into her gingham apron. aYou are
O very smart man, Nicodemus, and nv
brother, Tim Noyes, is another, and a
lawyer in the bargain. Don't tell Betsey
Jane, indeed Two wretches, you deserve
all you'll get, pretty soon r.
Betsey Jane said no more, but bided her
time. A week passed away, and then
brother Tins wagon drove up again TO
the door, and Nicodemus stopped into it,
