The alleged Election FL auds-An Imr artial
View OF Both Cases.
Your laudable advice to hear both sdes-renders

First to the that illegal voters were brought
on by Glentworth-all seem to ceacede this has been
done, but the question is, were Grinneli, Ravens
and Others implicated in 1t take il that il either
ofthese gent knew othis matte hen IL occur
red-and failed to denounce and punish the agrees
sor they were as guilty as the thief the fable (who
concealed the meat which the cher had stolen,) and
should be publicly condemned Now, does not the
letter written to Client worth at Philadelphia admit
that they had heard of what he about-and know
ing this, were they not bound, as honest mep to act
on this knowledge, and see that the fraud was not
persevered in and accomplished to their advantage,
and will any believe that these votes were af-
forwards introduced without any knowledge e..
Pieion on their part Ifso, why was a large sum Of
money supplied to Glentworth-and above all, why
did GraneI Havens s. Co. join in aletter to Cover

honest party services-for hat then this fat Of

and beyond this, why did Governor Seward appoint
Glentw orth; was it the Recommendation Of Grim

All this woald seem to prove that Governor Sew

candidates for public confidence, until these damned

If Recorder Morris and Mayor varian have vio-
lated the Constitution Of the United States and the
sacred bill Of rights Of this State in the seizure Of
the papers Of Gentworth; they also spot ed ard
should, with Messrs Whiting and Butler, their ad.
visers, be hurled from their Offices Let il NO, be
said they acted in Ignorance Of the provisions Of the
Constitution Of the United States, Of the Bill Of
Rights Of the Stste-ignorance Of the fundame ntal
principles of our law is high disqualification in a
Judicial officer and ever leads, in the case in hand
The 4th article Of the amendment to the United

L. there a man of common sense in this community
who will not see the application OF this provision to
the Of Gentworth. Could those papers be taken
by any body without oath first made, and that cath
partic describing the place to be and
the things TO be taken; and IL be, that any ma
gistrae is justified in disregardng, with impuaify,
these provisions so highly protective Of the sacred
ness Of mans private papers and his private house7

the Constitution continues, then ant il TO issue
and the law appoints proper executive officers to
execute it. Judicial oicsr, who might issue such
warrant, has no more power TO serve IL, than an
executive efhcer has TO issue IT, Their funcfn. are
distinctly marked a. those at the Judicial ar Le-
gi,lative. Where thea was The authority Of Reeor-
der Morris ard Mayer variar, to seize these papers
without warrant based ON cath duly nade-ana such
a warrant being issued, where was their power 10

violation Of duty, and of personal right committed
before this community by two OF the highest imi-

In conclusion, ask-does any mas believe that il
