the only object and AIM of ,chich
acas to PREVENT FRAUDS9
Why did they threaten, if the
Registry Law was passed, to sep
crate themselves from the State
of New York into a new State
where they could not be annoyed
by such hindrances and incon-
veniont distractions to their noto-
rious impositions and frauds at
elections? .Ansacer, Dyoat can, ye
Loco Focos Of Neao York who
opposed SO yehemently a law to
prevent frauds, and you of the
Boston Post and Bay State
Democrat who joined with them
in their denunciations!
What are the facts an the case?
The known and admitted frauds
committed by the Locofocos at all
the contested elections-the nat
uraIiza'ion of emigrants by hum
dreds who had just landed on our
shores, and the importation Of
votes from neighboring towns and
cities, had extended to such an al
arming height, that the Wing
Committees were compelled to
adopt precautionary measures, to
detect and put down those frauds
Accordingly, they sent to Con-
necticut, to New Jersey,to Phila-
delphia and to other places, COM
mittees acquainted with voters,
whose duty it was to stand near
the ballot boxes, and when
fraudulent vote was offered, to
denounce the person offering it
GlentWorth was entrusted with
a mission to Philadelphia, not to
bring on persons to vote at our
elections, but to bring on those
familiar with Philadelphia voters,
and prevent the Locofocos using
such for their purposes at the G.
lection.
At the very time this was done
in 1888, the wing papers gave pub
lie notice Of such precautions, and
the Courier & Enquirer publish
ed the following:
"Loco Facos from .N,,c Jersey--A hos.
of New Jersey Loco Focos are known to
have come to The city, with the intention Of
voting the Loco Foco ticket here; but we
are happy to learn that the Wing Commit
tees of Paterson and Newark have each
sent a deputaion Of Wings to attend at
every poll in the city to identify and ex-
pose the miscreants. We hope our In
spectors will promptly commit every nom
resident who may attempt 10 vote"
Deputations were also sent on
from other places, with the same
object, and we are also credibIy
informed that the very gentlemen
who sent Gientworth to Philadel-
phia, experimenting that voters
might be sent on, specially in
structed him against adopting any
such plan and recalled him. The
expenses of the deputation were
no doubt paid by the wings; they
were brought on for a just and le-
gal purpose: to prevent frauds at
our elections, and not commit
them.
The whole affair is Il mere bag of
wind-an old story newly vamp-
ed up; it has no truth for its foun7
dation; the citizens attempted to
be implicated by this confcderacy

TO THE PUBLIC
Infamous and Extra :
ordinary Conspiracy :!

ordinary Oon;H SaIn Asracy !!
The gross and monstrous state
ments published yesterday in the
handbilIs from the Offices Of the
Post and Bay State Democrat,
hawked about the streets and
scattered through every avenue
throughout the country, have been
proved to be, bv the mails Of to-
day, GROUNDLESS AND
INFAMOUS FABRICA :
TON. The atrocious libel that
"yNoses III. GrinneN, q member
of Congress from this city, has
decan,ped, and q aoarrant as as
sued for has arrest. He also has
been Oery conspicuous among
these conspirators'' will be shown
below as UTTERLY and ABB
SOLUIELY FALSE, as it is
without the shadow Of excuse or
palliation by the affidavit Of Mr..
Grinnell himself.
The even more absurd and RI
diculous story that ''WlLLIAM
II. SEWARD, the Governor Of
the State, is just arrested for er-
animation, as one Of The parties
concerned. he has been iii the
cityf0r taDo or thu ee days, and
the toct kept dark untH wiihi,e
three hours OF this writiMg. Sus-
picion of schat aras going on reach
ed him, and he left .fIbany IN an
obscure steamboat, anil Was Ian
ded IN an unusual manner, on tie
East Riuer side of our city,'' is
also as utterly without the slight
est possible excuse.
So far from there being any
grounds for even any present sus-
picion Of frauds on the part of the
Wings, the whole affair, as We
stated in our Extra of yesterday,
has relation only to occurrences
two years since, which are salts
factorally explained below; while
on the other hand, it will be seen
by the following from the Ex-
press Of yesterday afternoon, that
Developments ofa most ertraor-
binary conspiracy on the part of
Fan Buren's public officers, are
in fair way Of being brought to
light.
Dispositions are being taken this morning,
which will deVelope most extraordinary conspl-
racy, in which officers of the Government here
have participated, who have sought to blast the
reputation of some of our most worthy citizens
In the Morning Express we shall allude to this
subject again.
Why, we ask, for two years has this matter
been permitted to sleep, and why is it brought
out now on the eve of an election
IF the Wings of New York ey-
err had any intention of perpe-
trating any of the frauds which
are now laid at their door, aohy
did they press through, with so
much zeal and determination last
spring, in the New York Legis-
lature, the present REGISTRY
LAW? If the Loco Foco par
ty are so much in fear of frauds
and of violation of the sanctity of
the ballot box, why did they OPP
pose auih all their p0qcer, a la,D

writs consequent upon the process of law. He called
several times at the establishment of of the prose-

CAUTION TO TRAVELLERS GOING

! CAUTION TO TRAVELLERS GOING
| ~ SOUTH-HALIFAx, IN. C.) October 10Th, 1870
We, the undersigned, passengers from Baltimore South
here by caution The public against the Misrepresentation
made by the Bay Line of Steamboats, and the Ports
mouth and Roanoke rail road from baltimore via Nor
folk, to Weden N. C., in favor of their unrvaed exPe-
dition.
Wewere assured that the Bay Line was the only line
by which passengers could reach the Wilmington raj
road Weden thereby leaving the impression that this
the only by which passengers could reach the
Wilmington rail oad and also that would be twenty
four hours in advance of the passengers by the Great
Mail Line. But great astonishment on arriving
at Weldon we late for the cars for Wilmington
and Charleston; and instead of being "twenty-fouT
hours in advance of the mail, ;" were thrown back
twenty four hours behind IT,
II s true the Bay Line, via Portsmouth, is the only
line now running TO Weldon, but passengers by the
Great Mail Line are landed by steamboat ii Halifax a
point equally as pleasant on the Wilmington rail road
seyeralmiles below Weldon.
If there had been any unavoidable accident pre-
our getting through in time would most willingly ex-
cuse the deteHtion but nothing Of the kind occurred
the night the Bay was calm and pleasant as we
ever Witnessed and nothing TO prevent the steamboat
gliding the smooth turface the water fast as
steam could drive us.
Itseems 10 Us, therefore, that, they have failed in
complying with their promises under the IA
vsrable circumstances the traveller place but little
reliance on their fair promises or their flaming hand
bills.
