Messrs. EpIroRs: The Globe OF The 10Th inst.
c-nlans an extract ola leuer dated 7lh inst Al
Ph,ladeph The suh-c, OF The contested election
between Mcssrs. Ns,lor aud lngcrsol That letter
states that man bv the name Of Doyle. - proved
eyond doubt thousand and Serenity SIR false votes
IN The five Wing wards OF The Nonhern Liberties"
Now his statement is totally false and untounded.
There has no, only been ono illegal vote proven.
but not even n single fraud Of the slightest chafac-
ter established. Ercry material statement IN the
Globes letter is false. lne.rsoll instead OF making
oui aease. is only making himself ridiculous. Eve
~ witness he has produced has been asked by Mr.
n ayors counsel whether they knew ola single
fraud. llleR aly, irreguary IN that election, and
they have all been forced 10 anss er. No!
lnerrsoll's friends. many OF ihea openly express
their disgust al his course, aud declare iha, they
cannot be induced again TO vote for him on any
count.
Nearly all the evidence he has offered is hearsay.
and consists in detailing whsta man by the name OF
Gill said. Gill not an officer of election in NJ
Mayors district. lie was not even resident OF
the district and took part 10 the election, and
knew. IN TACT, more about IT than he had lived IN
another State. lie, ho"ever, is procured by some
means other 10 make statements Of frauds. And
this being done, lngcrsoil brings forward a witness
To swear Ia what lie had said The whole tale is so
utterly absurd that no human being could believe II,
even II GIL had 10 besides, It eau be dis
proved in dozen different ways.
The first witness that In eerso brings forward to
swear 10 what G,ll said, Is man by the name o.
MrGnuny. lie tells lang story, is occupied a
whole day about II, says that CHI has been his most
intimate friend for anumber Of years. and then con-
cludrs by saving that he (Gll) Is a g,rat seconded
a theft aud a robbcr and ihst he mouid not beiiere

be ashamed to write or speak. Then some
silly catchword is passed round and round,
until it is as flat. not only as 'hard cider"
but as dish-wa'er. TEL Chapman he

and Chapman does crow, until we should
suppose Chapman would split his throat,

the game is for each party to swear To the
federalism of its opponents, and attempt to
prove it, not from their present principles,
bul from ancient documents. As specl-
men Of this, we have lying before us pa
per in which it proved, most conclusive
of course. that William Cullen Bryant,

instances, lie led astray by humhug for "A
