An Album of songa.

There are some books, like the re-
markably popular "Franz's Album of
Songs" which awaken in thcss who
have genuine musical taste, real enthu-
siasm. One of these is the new "Album
of Songs" by Halidan KjeIulf (Oliver
Ditson & Co, 81 50). 1t will be difficult
to find anywhere songs truer to nature,
purer in sentiment, more melodious OF
beautiful than the thirty three in this
volume. The melodies, which are OF
the finest workmanship, with we'll
wrought harmonies, aud yet not diff.
cult, prove that Kjerult is G brother in
song and the equal of the illustrious
Franz. The origin Il text is by the most
notable write,s, and includes song in
French by Victor Hugo. All of the
songs have English translations.

A Voice From Appoquintmink.
Corresponds &c of the brruBLIcAs.


TOWNSEND, Sept. 18th, 18s6.-I have
sseu in your paper from time to time
reference to fraud at the nominations
and elections In your city, but think
nothing could have been more vile and
degrading than was the nomination
held In this (AppoquiniminI) Hun
dred, on Saturday last, for the purpose
Of nominating State Senator and Levy
Court Commissioner. There WAS Gray
and Lors ticket, and t1e bids for votes
ranged from three dollars to fifteen dol
lars, and the Gray ticket was elected BY
thirty. five majority.
Now l will say here, for future refer
ence, that 1t was not the poor men only
who were bought. If a poor man want
ed to sell his vote he oely got SIS. but IL
farmer or farmers son wanted to
sell he got from $40 to SIS, owing to re.
spectability. Now know a poor mar
who has large family who was honest
In his opinion and voted on the Gray
side. Notwithsts uding he WAS crippled
In both hands they did not give him
one cent. and at the same time when he
voted saw three young men cell theil
votes for Sl9 apiece; two of them voted
on age and guess the ether had right
to vote. There were cid citizens who
osn their farms wise enough to take
the money.
Now, II you talk to them they will
say that he was my man anyhow, and
if he is fool enough 10 give ME money.
| nm fool enough to take it. Now
will say here that have always been
a Democrat, but if the nomination for
assessor next Saturday, (when we will
try and select an honest and sober
man, Is carried on as it mas been In
in the paxt, l will never vote another
Democratic ticket, although l should
live to see my bunGradth year. Citi-
zens rally and abolish this mode of cor.
rupting men, and let us have fair and
honest elections. DEMOCRAT.
