The Frederick Times seriously assures us that il

we suppose the Charlottesville paper adopts this

NEW JERSEY.-The Administration papers
complain very loudly of the decision of the Gov
ernor and Council ofNew Jersey. by which the
Wing Congressional ticket in that State has been
pronounced to be elected. They forget however,
to tell their readers of the gross frauds of their
own party the detection Of which, and the conse-
quent election illegal votes, led this result. 1t
is remarkable, too, that ihose papers which com
plain most loudly of the return Of the Wig mem
hers in New jersey, saw nothing TO condemn in the
base attempt Of Charles Jared Insetsoll to procure
certificate Of election from the lhrd Congressional
district OF ennss lvania wh the fact staring him IN
the face that his competitor, Nj. Mayor, was elected
bya majority of nearl, 1000 votes. For our own
part do not desire the return of the New Jer-
sey Wing members unless they are fairly elected
We would not re ect vote on the other side for
mere informalty in conducting the election: But

81 returned by The Van Barren inspectors orlhai

robbed-fnd when it is known that ia other pfecin,ts

ed character OF those funCtionates II there be any
thing wrong in their decision, however, Congress can
and will rectfy it. Before that body the will 60
other contested elections do--and we are wiling
to leave the matter to its decision. Complaints Of
fraud, however, come with wrctched grace from
the abetors Of Mr.. IngerSoa in his base attempt 20
sci aside the verdict oil his constituents, aud steal
into seat which, by overwhelming majority, that
verdict had placed it out of his power to reach.

lSenaor Rivess ogan) is very severe upon the Rich
mond Enquirer and Justly So for its rejoicngs at the
election OF the Sub Treasury men to Congress-
It's certainly tdle strange that that paper sh 1ud be
SO rampant IN its joy, lit has a shade Of pre-

and if itwerc really true, tits cot that there was
regularly made up issue between those two schemes
M finance Does the Enquirer expect to carry its
Special Opposite plan, by the election of Sub
treasury men Or is ii not cerain, If that plan be
adopted at all, that it must be in opposition to the
votes of the ub-Trcasury party, and by the acqui-
escehce OF It's opponents, who may prefer it, in the
last resort! The Enquirer, however. is IN hobblc
and we by means desire TO add to the embarrass
ments OF its position.
