They proye that, even if Slavery be sdVan'age-
ous anywhere, il ut all events is no longer
sdop,ed to MARYLAND. The steadily increasing
proportion of her Free, and even oil her free
Black. to her Slave population, Is conclusive al
least Of this. Yet nowhere has Slavery been
moro tenacious. more ntclerant, more yindic.
tive, than in that State, which gave but 10
Free Soil votes for Van Buren, in as, 81 Tor
Hale in ~ 2Sl for Fremont in 90, and 2,%J'
for Lincoln in go. The electors who would
have voted against Slavery, could they have
done so with safety and TO any purpose were
doubtless thousands Mt all times, but very ie"
were willing to peril their property, limbs
and lives for principle to no prac'ical
end. Reycrdy johnson, for example

fourth actor in this interesting drama. II. New
comb u lawyer of Albany, who states that he
was sent by Gov. Seymour "t0 assist IN taking
the votes of the soldiers Of NewYork, comes
on the stand and confirms the whole story from
beginning TO end and admits his own participe-
ton in the fraud. liz adds that the envelopes,
containing tho genuine votes of soldiers, were
left open to have the local tickets inserted in
them. which is itself gross violation Of law.
Add 10 all this the fact that larse quantity OF
the fraudulent votes were seized. and there Is
proof enough TO conyict even in case OF high
treason.
Now, what is there to contradict or disprove
III thisl Absolutely nothing. Commissary-
General Farrell fastened on Friday morning Ia
! deny that he had ever " received any OF the pa
pcrs or the letter mentioned by Ferry, nor have
] any knowledge or information about them;
nor have ever had any communication with
Ferry or heard of him until his pretended con-
fession appeared in tlie public prints" Who
said you had Gen. Farrell! Your card denic.
statements which Ferry did not make. Ferry
stated distinctly that the papers and letter had
not been sent, Tor the reason that they were
seized by the authorities. Of course, Gen. Fur
rell, you never saw them. You say YOU
never saw or hoard Of Ferry. His lette
