We see hat Moses NJ. Strong,
one OF the best men in the
world, and u Democrat, who
would no sooner think of doing
II wrong thing than Il Republic
can would, is being hauled over
the Goals by some Republican
papers because lie proposes to
put a straight Democratic ticket
md a split ticket into envelopes
and send them through the
postollice to Republicans. That
is all that Mr.. Strong proposes
to do, though n person would
think, to see some Of our eX.
changes, that he was forming a
band of nightriders to stand
at tho polls election day and
shoot down persons in blood
that has been kept on ice. If
it is II crime to send split tick
cts to n person through the
mail, it is the first we had
heard of it. Under the law, as
it now stands, the person re
ceiving n split ticket through
the mail is not obliged to vote
1t, and there is no fine md i'm
prisonment il he should tear
tho ticket up, and get n straight
Republican ticket and vote it.
Ii there is nothing worse done
than sending split tickets
through the mail, there will
be no canse to fear fer the
safety of the country.
The October states" arc In

that beating the Republicans

Senator Conkling made "a
great effort of his life at the
Academy Of Music, in New
York, last Friday evening. In
the general view taken by the
distinguished Senator we coin
eide heartily; the war should
be prosecuted vigorously, until
every regiment Of rebels now in
the field shall be forced to lay
down their arms and surrend er
Let another draft be ordered at
once, and troops sent forward
to crush out the rebellion that
now threatens the Union. These
are indeed perilous times. And,
by the way, where is Hancock

Words of Wisdom.

Gratitude is the memory of the heart.
knowledge is more than equivalent
to force.
Duties fulfilled are always pleasures
to the memory.
Proud hearts and lofty mountains are
always barren.
The trees that are most in the sun
bear the sweetest fruits.
1t is curious fact that from vice to
Virtue the road is long and hard one,
while from virtue to vice the ROAD is
very short.
Some men grumble because they have
DO opportunity, while Others go to work
to make opportunities for themselves.
We make solemn promises to be aw-
fully good when we are in danger OF
death, but when we begin to get well
we forget all about them.
1t is not safe to have tor many irons
in the fire. When man tries to catch
two rabbits he must needs leave one and
apt to lose the other.
When a man married a large but
homely woman some one at the wedding
said that he took her by weight and
didn't care for the workmanship.
