Orr CITY.

There are forty thousand UnonstS in orr
City who are legal voters, and who earnestly de-
sire Presden; Lincoln's reelection. There are
about Sixty Thousand legal voters who support
and wish TO vote for Gen. Mcclellan. There IS
no need, no excuse for any collision or trouble
between these opposing hosts. We want to
poll all our LEGAL votes and not one more; We
want every legal voter who prefers Gen. McClcl-
Ian to have n full and fair chance to deposit his
ballot; and we want every person who Oilers an
Illegal vote promptly arrested, convicted and
punished. If our opponents but rcciprocate
these designs. all will be well.
We know that bogus votes purporting to be
those of soldiers have been fabricated in vast
numbers, and we apprehend that efforts will be
made TO poll thousands Of these in our City. We
know that swarlns Of aliens have for days been
pouring into our City from the mining districts OF
Pennsylvania, with probable intent to vote here.
70 resist expose and defeat all such frauds is the
simple duty Of every good citizen, irrespective OF
party. There was a time when we might have
looked for aid in this work to such men as
Hiram Ketchum, James W Gerard, james
Brooks &C.: now. we cannot hear that any OF
this school evncc any solitude that illegal
votes shall not be pollcd. There is great
change somcwhere--is it on their part or on
ours
We call upon homes. Democrats who are still
ensnarcd by the sorceres Of the Slave Power TO
aid in protecting the ballot-boxes from de,ecra-
ton; but we call more earnestly aud hopefully
on Unionists to give to-day and tomorrow
,cloiiy TO the paramount duty of securing q fair
and pure vote. Spend to-day, We pray You. in
scanning one Ward Registry List after another

know 70 have removed from that Ward, or 10 he
not now legal voter therein, and handing

and prosecution in case any one shall attempt
TO vote thereon. This is to-ddys work: no one
can give the day 20 il without detecting some
names registered where they should not be,
ready 10 be voted on fraudulrnily. Let US be
ready to arrest the first dozen that make the at

thereafter Then give Tomorrow 10 active

Lincoln and Fenton, and they are working as
though they want to do that same. They were
beaten less than One Thousand in poll OF over
Forty Thousand votes last year, carrying some
of their local candidates, and losing their Sheriff
by handful of votes. They can now poll
Twenty Thousand votes if they do their very
best and this viii probably give them the
