Intelligencer, A soldier of the 104th Regiment

—A soldier of the 104th Regiment informs us that
Henry F. Ross, Democratic candidate for Congress,
visited the men about to be discharged at the Volun-
teer Refreshment Saloon in Philadelphia, on Wednes-
day last. His errand was to obtain the votes of some
of the returned soldiers. Our correspondent says,
however, that the men did not forget the fact that
Ross had voted against them at the election in
August, and that he did not by any means succeed in
making friends among them. The soldiers have no
sympathy with such a man as Ross, who has always
been an enemy to their cause and themselves. The
returned men of the 104th, we are assured, will give
a large majority of their votes for Mr. Thayer next
Tuesday, and for Lincoln and Johnson in November.
