Bring the Soldiers Home to Vote.
We allitded, a few days since, to the injustiee
of the partizan,decision by, which Judge Wood
ward, from the Supreme Bench of Pennstylva-,
t
nia, decreed the disfranchisement of the men
who are perilling lifeand limb in the defence
of the Constitution and the Union...-At Ahe
same time we urged that some. plan might be
adopted by which these men cbuld-be ' , Brought
home, and thus afforded' an oppettnnity
participate in an election in whose banes Are
involved so much that is valuable and vital-to
the soldier.' But when we wrote the pant;
graph referred to, we hid no ° idea that, Ito
suggestions would find a response from the army
thus early. It seems, holievet that - JtoliAarar;
011APII which referred to the enatter,—fcaind
way to some of the ,bayZ at Washington, several
of whom hive written to_us, ea - meetly' thank.
lag us for the suggestions in their behalf, and
urging that the subjact be agitated until sortie
, .
thing like justice is donelo the fuildier. • We
submit extracts from two of theatiletters ,
c? • I notice by,
the Tarmnars of yesterday morning, that yea
propose to enter into some arrangeanents or
plan by which as many of .the„soldiers from
Pennsylvania as could be farloughed for zthe
time being, would be enabled to go home and
thus participate in. the election for tlovernor.rr
The idea-and the suggestlon.meet with hpge
favor among the boys. They are net, indiffer
ant to the great contest which is•Aieing waged
in Pennsylvania,. for Governor and.other State
and county officers. We all feel that we %have
been unjustly disfranchised by the action of
Judges Woodward and, Lowry, in conjunction'
with their Democratic associates on the Supreme
Bench, and now we would
_ask no, greater boon
than the rightful , privilege of. testifying
our appreciation of these men at ,the, ballot;
box. But, aside from this mere personal' and
political gratification of resentmerit;oNe feel
that the State needs ;outvotes at home the same.
as the Nation needs our services, here on the
battle field, to assist in crushing rebellion;. nd'
if Woodward should happen to be elected ilev
ernor of . Pennsylvania by: the operation of the
disfranchisement decree, a howl will go up from
the army such/ as will startle the semitraitour
at home with terror and dismay. We did not
leave home,-endangering our lives on the .bat-,
tle-field, to peril all that was ascred,to us as
citizens, by leaving to the control of traitors at
home our highest: rights„ intsi este, and .pros-,
parity. We feel that we have a right to_ he
heard and felt at the ballot-box, the same as
we are being felt and heard on the battle-field: ;
We feel that Andrew G. Curtin should and
masthe elected Governor, if we are to , succeed
in the bloody , fight with , traitors., Agitate the
suggestion, then, of having the soldiera return ,
to vote. 0 . 0 0 , ,

The above is sufficiently emphatic: for sill
purposes. ,It cannot lae-rniktiken.• Pint, as a
sort of'corroboration of 'what its stated by this;

correspondent, lie print - ad extraccfrom the
letter of another soldier:

well as the justice of adoppag some plan by
which the. soidiers of the old' Keystone State
would be afforded the •cirportunity of :voting at

feeling'exists in the aimy on this subject. Men
are fierce in the recollection tha'tthY have
be en disfranchised; aid if the partizan `Motives
which dictated these outrageous , proceedings on
the part of the Demo Critic Judges of the Penh
sylvania Supreme Court were not so apparent,
the wrong would be reg.arded as , one inflicted

foe, and then prepare to strike, at' another
equally as deadly and as desperate. The lloys'
'will repay you some day, for defending their
rights and interests. 0 ' 0 0 0
There is, in both these. xtracts, a. sentiment
of indignition at a wrong - which. the soldiers ,
feellas been done them, to whiCh every fair
minded, patriotic citizen must respond. And
w hil e t h e patibtkand loyal men at home thus
respond, the practical part of the business con-:
fleeted with the stibject, : is 'it once presented to
diem for consideration. .yfikt it be possible to
briog home any portion,onyalj_ of the troops,
frian this State, and thus afford them the op
portunity to vote at the Octobaii?plictiorit? - .. So,
ima -FT
far as our judgment is concerned, we tirmty be
have that such a plan could be successfully est=
tied cal If the exigeactee of Ow scaric, ,
a rendition to allow the r.iLiccilarVai of three
troupe for a few days from the army, every wan
ehould be marched homeward, allowed to v, to,
and then returned to the army. Such a specta
cle would be the sublimeA the world ever con
templated.
As this subject begins to assume such vast
importance, we hope that our cotomporaries
will give it their full attention, that it may be
agitated in every section of the State. We hope,
too, that the soldiers from the different coun
ties of the Commonwealth, will address the
editors of the localities to which they belong,
giving their Views on the subject, setting forth
what they consider just, and then demanding
justice in such terms as those in authority can
not fail to understand.
