—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.
