e. A most Infamous and murderous attack
was made on Tuesday. at the polls in this city.
upon Mir. John X. Elder. Of this office, and
one that every good citizen and right minded
man will condemn Mr. Elder was standing near
one of the windows, acting as challenger. A great
number of sold ers we're voting, and it was well
known that numbers of them never had a resi-
denee in this county. Mr.. Elder had challenged
several, and the Judge at the window decided
against their votes. He was civilly and mildly
performing duty that the law guarantees, and
that custom has sanctioned. The party leaders
wished to get him out of the way. and crowc
of soldiers, some twenty perhaps, in number,
were s5t upon him. Some one started the lie that
he had made some remark favorable to JEFF
Davis, and the bullieS iercely attacked him.
Several gentlemen nterfered. among others Sher-
if Wallace and General Elliott, and Mr.. Elder,
followed b. brawling mob. succeeded iE making
his escape without serious injury. Sheriff Wal
lace and several of the police accompanied him to
the City Building and remained until the crowd
dispersed.
There is abundant reason to believe that the
soldiers were put up TO this outrage by men who
knew better. 1t was not 4 sudden excitement
but a premedtated attack. and We do not envy
the feelings of the who know themselves
guilty of 80 gross outrage on n citizen and so
glazing an attempt to destroy the purity of the
ballot box.
