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. October 28th, 1871. '‘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.

Mr. James being at tho City Hull, waa conducted into tho Council Chamber, where tbe lesult waa officially announced to him, in response to which he rone, and in a short addres* accepted the nomina tion, returning thanks to tlie people for 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 Democrat—always co-operating and voting with the party; that he is now s Democrat and nothing else, and should devote his time and means to the success of the Democratic part; and its nomi nees; and if chosen Mayor, would do all h* oould for the best interests of the city. The few remarks were delivered in the good taste so characteristic of Mr. James, and were warmly applauded by those present. Councilman Well* one of tbe nomi nees ot tbo First Ward, was present, and being railed upon, expressed tliauks for tbe high compliment of a re-nomi nation at the hands of the party, and a determination to do all he oould for the success of the cause sad the ticket The Philadelphia and Atlanta Wine and Liquor Company have in store an ample supply of all kinds of wines snd liquor* which they will warrant good and pure.
