WHAT IS MY VOTE?
It is my sovereignty whereby,: so.'far
as in me lies, I decree what shall be the.
laws and institutions, the policy 'and des-.
tiny of the State. It is my declaration to
-
the world, of my principles and wishes
as a citizen. It is my testimony for , the
right or the. wrong 'in society 'and
government. It is my vicegereneY
wherein, as one invested by God with
the fudotion of ruling, to prove,iny char
acter as a faithful or
. unfaithfitl steward.
To vote is not an optional .Privilege ; it
is a moral duty. The consciousness that
I am a.voter, is not merely .to comfort
me, as in my gown and slippers.l read '
the news from Austria, Italy, and Rus
sia, where the indiiidual man is crushed
by the organic despotism of, the state;
it is not a lateit power, to be. put 'forth_
only when' sonic danger threatens' me,
my interest, my business, my party; it
is a power for good or for evil, for which
lam personally accountable to God. To
him that knoweth to be good, and 'doeth
it not, to hinvit is sin.

country, is a direct moral issue between

" I have some 'acquaintance with' the
Colonel, and I am so favorably impresbifi
as to him, that I would is • rendily , trust
him as any other individual. The DI
iSAIRITY. IS BEYOND EISSI4OION."

great Fremont is a- - young 'officer' of
great 'merit—one who deserves - well -- of
