ALBANY, Oct. %.

A dispatch received here this evening
from James A. Farrell, CommisSary Cen
ersl Of Ordnance, states that so far as the
confession Of II. ]. Ferry, contained in
morning papers, refers to him in any re-
spect connecting him with alleged frauds
with reference to the.soldiers' vote, is an
unmitigated fslsehood; that he never re-
ceived any letter or papers from him, and
never heard of him until he saw the con-
fession in print.
