Editors Daily Bun: In the local ool
nmns of Thb Sun of to-day it is stated
tlial tho polls of the First Word was tbe
“scene of considerable enthusiasm and
a good deul of boisterous behavior.—
Judging from tbe shouts one would liave
thought that Col. Hulsey was monopolix
ing everything."
Allow me tossy that ths Democrats of
the First Ward were enthusiastic, and are
always enthusiastic ia ,the cause of De
mocracy. It is a distinguishing choree
teristic of tbe party—a secret spring in
its working machinery—to which it is
generally indebted for sucoeas. Your
reporter seems to have been annoyed
particularly because there was shouting
for Col. Halsey. The language used
leaves on erroneous impression that there
was more disorder at th6 First Ward polls
than any other, and that the friends of
Hulsey were the cause of the disorder.
Weil, Col. Hulsey's friends thought
they were “shouting" for a good man aud
true Democrat, who had before filled tlie
Mayor’s chair with honor and credit.—
He was their choice for the plnco again;
hut since, aliove tbe “shouts” of tho
friends of the rival candidate* i to voice
if the party is heard in favor of thatgoexi
and true Democrat—that th-rling, upright
man—John H. James—as its standurd-
beurer, tho friends of the gallant Hulsey
now propose to change their battle cry,
and "ehout” long and loud tor James, ami
we hope for, and expoot, the eo-operetion
of, and "enthueinstic" support of all good
Democrat* H. B. Hill.

'‘Bolitrroffii Behavior” at the Poll*.
We cheerfully publish the communica
tion of Dr. H. B. Hill, in relation to the
notico of “boisterous behavior” Aa, at
tbe Polls of tlie First Ward, on Satur
day. Our reporter bod no idea that such
a construction would bo pltoed on tbe
language used, os is mentioned by Dr.
Hill. The intention was to rooord a
fact—that there will boisterous proceed
ings about tbo poll* and tbe further fact
that late in the afternoon some of the
friends of Col. Hulsey, became very en
thusiastic, aud shouted anil cheered
quite loudly for him. Thia shouting and
cbocriug for favorites, was noticed os
having occurred only at the First and
Fifth Ward roll* There was, besides
this, some disorder and high wordi
though not extensively so at the First
Ward poll* Our reporter only intended
to uotioe tho fact, nothing more.
Col. Hulsey has mauy warm and strong
friends iu this city, who admire him and
are devoted to his fortune* anil who en
deavored, ns they had a right to do, to
secure bis nomination. He and they are
of the true Democratic stripe—believing
in the time-honored principles of
the parfy; and since Mr. James has been
nominated, they arc all like Dt. Hill,
determined to give him s cordial and
hearty support. This is the true Demo
cratic spirit, which has always eontribn
ted to the strength snd integrity of the
party.
We have known Ool. Hulsey fur year*
He is still s young man, and has flllad
several positions of public trust with
honor snd credit to himself. When he
was Mayor before, ho exerted himself
energetically to the duties of his office,
and woe specially devoted to tbe relief of
thoee who ere burdened and in suffering
circumstance* We would hare suppor
ted him mast pheprfajly if he had been
nominated. W« took no ridesiq the ooe-
test among aspirants for party asudnjAny.
We consider it our duly to leavo that
matter entirely to the party. It has
made its choice, snd ths choice of the
party ia our choioe. This we know is tbo

where tbe lesult waa officially announced
to him, in response to which he rone, and
in a short addres* accepted the nomina

the mark of confideaoe which they had
bestowed on him. He remarked that the
candidacy for the nomination had been
unpleasant in opposing personal friends
and good Democrat* but that he had
done so with the best of feeling aud in
all fairness; that before the war he was s
Whig but sum* tbo wsr he bad boon a

devote his time and means to the success
of the Democratic part; and its nomi

h* oould for the best interests of the city.
