The address OF the Democratic State Com
nittoe of Indiana, which we print this morns
ing, ought to be read by every honest voter in
the hand. The charges it makes Of frauds
on the part OF the Republicans TO secure the
Dre-election of Governor Morton ara not loose
allegations, such M are APT 10 circulate during
u political campaign, but actual facts, unde-
niable facts, terrible facts. The committee
prove couclusively that the frauds in fourteen
counties resulted ia aH increase of the Re
publican vote nearly equal to Morton's alleg-
ed majority in the whole State; and in these
counties there were cast eleven thousand more
votes than we're cast in 1860, and this, not
Withstanding the number OF men which Indi-
ana has furnished for the army How this
outrage WAS accomplished is well known.
Soldiers from other States voted the Repubi-
can ticket again aud again, until villainous
rivalry arose as TO who had voted the often.
