The ELECTION Sentinel joins in the hue
and cry of fraud and states that the votes of two
hundred persons Of foreign birth, naturaized since
June last were rejected II also states that the
matter is to be judicialy investigated, the anti
Know-Nothings having engaged Messrs. Coke,
Fendall, and Carlisle, as their counsel.
Notwithstanding this covert bravado of having
retained, as they suppose, three oil the ablest law
yers Of the District 10 contest the election, an
ticipate that they will find even better counsel
than these will be necessary. They had better
retain Rufus Choate, Of Boston. David Paul Brown,
of Philadelphia, G. Roselus, of New Orleans and
Edward Bates, of st, Louis, if they really intend
to carry the case into law, for they will find that
this concentration Of legal talent will hardly be
able to overcome the simple and plain fairness and
equity Of the election, and draw from any court a
perverse decision. This howl Of " fraud was be-
gun quite too early by those who foresaw their
defeat, and the cry does not engage the attention
Of honest men, which the apparent Importance
might do in any other case.

and threatening TO assault and maltreat, Mary

Of John and Laura Hays, and has given them
much trouble by her wild conduct, and was seen
by her mother yesterday In not a very respectable
locality, from which she endsavored to take her,
and, upon some difficulty arising, the others who
were complained Of came to the assistance of the
mother in her effort TO take her erring girl home

Mary Is but IA or Is years old, and possessed a
beautiful head Of hair, which her mother deprived
her Of yesterday, by cutting IL of close to her
head. This detraction of her natural beauty was
sore grief to her, and probably prompted the
complaint for she win not seem so attractive as she
evidently wishesto be, among the sterner sex.
