praetieed upon il, and feel satisfe that
party prejudice, would not now attempt to
screen any man, who has outraged the dear
est prt rogrtive of a free people, by " swear
ing in's vote TO which he is not legally
entitled, thus adding the crime Of perjury
10 the outrage Of illegal votlng,whieh ! hold
to be the greatest indignity, that can be
offered a free people.
Our District Court is TO set il few days,
and hope this matter will engage the
attention or the Grand Jury. 1ftbere has
been any illegal voting and perjury, let the
law in Its iull force of vengence fall on the
guilty parties. / feel satisfied, that our
District Attorney will prosecute to the full
extent of the law all the parties concerned

ConKr.--It is said that Paunets, were
stricken from the City, list Of Paupers Dh
the day before the election, in order that
they mighrvote the American ticket. ls
this the fact lfso, why does tnot appear
III the published proceedings OF the City
Council. AN AMERICAN.
The facts have been referred 10 be-
fore, and some explanation seems to be
necessary. On the 9Th inst, our neigh
Dor in Church street referred TO the
fact and The following paragraph IL
from his paper Of that date
The Democracy can boast one thing.
They struck no names from the town
pauper list and voted them for Buchan-
an on Tuesday. VIII some Of the K
N. prints inform us how many paupers
were stricken from the list on Mon
day, The day before the election, carried
to the polls and made to put In Fill
more tickets? Let us know. We
trust that we have heard the last of
foreign paupers. We desire to know
which IL The pauper party aoao. Thank
God we cannot reproach ourselves
hereafter with 50 degrading an act as
was perpetrated at our precinct on
Tuesday last.
IF what our neighbor asserts as a
fact, ID fact; 1t docs not meet with
The countenance Of the body Of the
American party in East Baton Rouge.
Of this he may rest assured. A ques-
ton ia reference to the act should be
answered. Were the paupers referred
to, taken from the list at their own re-
quest, and without meeting Of the
Council? We pause for a reply and
open column for any one having a
word Of light to throw on tho subject.
