The New York ELscTIoS FRAuDs.- Don
ahoe and Terry, the New York State agents
who were detected in making up fraudulent
votes for the soldiers. have been tried and con-
victed by a Military Commission, and sentenced
TO Imprisonment for life. The President has
approved the sentence. The severity of the
punishment will doubtless have salutary effect.
Many have been puzzled TO understand the
dispatches relative TO these frauds, as no election
has been held in New York yet this fall But
it appears that, by the election laws of that
State, it is competent for the soldiers TO issue
their voting powers OF attorney sixty days pre-
vious TO any general or special election, by
which power Of attorney any elector OF the
town or city where the absent elector shall
reside may cast his vote. The Copperhead
agents have. without doubt, been forging such
powers of attorney-takiug the soldiers names
from the muster rolls.

COPPERHEAD LIES.

As usual. the copperhead press are publishing
just on the eve of election base falsehoods, TO
Influence the votes OF those who may be falter-
ing between Lincoln and Mcclellan. A party
whose cause needs such acts Of baseness TO get
the support OF a free people is dangerous
party devoted TO bad cause. They proclaim
first one, then another, Of the Generals and
other officers of the army in favor of Mcclellan,
who, as often as they are Informed OF such
declarations are too patriotic 10 let the lie pass
unnoiiced. 0nly day or two ago, General
Hooker denied the SANDER that be was for
Mcclellan. Now the Express says the \. \.
Herald has information iha, Gen Sherman is
for Mcclellan. Every man of common sense,
who knows anything of obermsn's war policy,
know. the pretended statement OF the New
York Herald. as given BIZ the Express, is a
SANDER upon the veteran hero.
