And now for the explanation of this result
The New Orleans Bee-whose Editor never
| writes without weighing well and carefully what
| he writes-infornls US that the election JUS
| passed exhibits successful assault upon the
sanctitv and sacredness of the elective franchise
1T may not be possible to arrive at the exact num-
ber of spurious votes deposedin the ballot boxes,
! but some idea may be formed of the extent to
| which illegal voting was carried, from the tact
that the aggregate number votes poled IS nearly
double the aggregate vote Of December last,wh
sMr. FREREr was elected to the Legislature"
Ii is known continues the Bee that about
| eighteen hundred! certificates of naturalization
have been issued by Judge ELLIOTT, OF the CITY
! Court of Lafayette, in utter contempt ol law and
| reason These certificates were granted III the
| most shameless manner, without the slightest re-
gard to the proofs necessary to be submitted 10
the court, touching the residence and good morals
of the applicant. They were ISSUED at tunes
when the Judge wasnot in court, when there was
| no pretence of form, law or usage Tor SO DONG.
| And indeed such was the fagitlous length to
which this conspiracy against the nights OF Amer
| lean citizens was carried, that we have been IN
formed that naturalization papers were taken out
for people who had not left ireland at the time.
There is little doubt that certificates Of natural
| zation were taken out for persons who were never
inside Of Judge ELLIoTT's court, and who IN fact
did not knoW the use of such papers until they
were told that they entitled ny them to vote
for Loco Foco candidates for office
In the Sd Ward of the Third Municipality d
furious riot broke out in consequence OF the
Judges refusing to receive the spurious certiti-
cate-the ballotbox was seized and broken to
pieces the ballots scattered upon the ground, and
the Judges compelled to retire from the threaten
ing mob! Here is Loco-Focoism in full bios
som
THE UTICA ELEcrIoN.-lt appears from the
Utica Gazette that the tremendous majority OF
twenty-one! received by the Loco Foco candl-
date for Mayor III Utica obtained by the
introduction of numerous democratic delega-
tons from the surrounding towns These pat
riotc gentlemen will all be wanted at home next
November, and Utica viii tell different story.
Last spring the Wing Mayor was elected by ID
majority. The year previous the Loco tocos had
majority Of 1870.

whole subject is well understood and ably han.

expressing an earnest desire for speedy trial.
u Mr. CLAY has written a letter to Com
