THE NUMBER TO VOTE FOR.
The voters Of Richmond will have TO
be very careful i'm the matter Of preparing
their ballots to-day, or many OF them VIII
be thrown out. The official ballots, print
ed under the direction Of the City Demo
cratic Committee, through some apparent
oversight, fail TO show how many dele
gates should be voted for at amy pre-
cinct At First Clay. for instance, there
are ten names on the ticket, whereas but
seven persons are to be voted for. lu
order to aid the voter as far a possible
I'm making up his ticket correctly the
Dispatch indicates below how many dele
gates each precinct is entitled TO, and

didates from the advocates of free sil-
