ONE OF THE ELECTION FRAUDS. - The
Democratic Press, of San Francisco, says
our readers will recolIect that in October last
the Commissioners from New York appoint
ell to receive the votes Of the soldiers from
that State in the army, were arrested by or.
der of Secretary Stanton, and about twenty
thousand Democratic votes, boxed and sealed
were destroyed, upon the pretence that they
were frauduently obtained The destruction
of these votes changed the result Of the cleo
tion in New York, defeating Seymour and
giving the electoral vote Of the State to Lin
coin. One Of these Commissioners, after
having been kept in Jail for long time, has
at length been tried, with the following re'
suit, as given by the New York Express:
Not only is Col. North acquitted by the
Court, but there is not a particle Of truthful
evidence warranting his arrest, nor was there
any evidence that a single fraudulent cote cos
taken or attempted to be taken in his office. 1t
was monstrous persecution-a cruel and
wanton exercise of arbitrary power from be-
ginning to end act which in every re-
spect reflects the deepest disgrace upon those
who pstigated the arrest. those who were
parties to it. and the Administration under
which il WAS commi,'el

A SMALL GUS SpIKEp.- Recently, in the
United States Senate, while Senator Powell.

Kentucky Senator, in good temper and in
smooth language, literally layed Lille Pue.

scene, and no Honorable Senator ever before
received such an excoriaton. The affair was
enjoyed hugely by the "asselnbed wisdom"
according to the Washington correspondent,
of tho S. +. Bulletin, who says:
you received by last mail copy of the
debate between Senators Powell and Conness
in which the latter received a severe rebuke

body. This effect of Powe'Is scathing is all
the more significant, because the Kentucky
Senator is one Of the least popular men in
the body, in consequence f his half hearted
loyalty. The fact is, that Mr. Conness's
course and conduct in the Senate have tho

ES-The great incendiary plot to burn the
city of New York, about the time of the
Presidential election, when dozen Of the
principal hotels were reported to have been
fired, has probab y not passed from the public
recollection. Some of the ncendiaries were
said to have been caught and found to be
emissaries from rebeldom, and that they
would be tried and if found guilty, would
suffer death. Late correspondence from the
East says, that after waiting for months for
an exposition Of this plot and the trial Of the
criminals, a general conclusion is being arrived
at that i, was a cooked up affair on the part
of Government officials. No trials have taken
place, and it is not known that single
arrest has been made. The police and other
officials, ii interrogatsd upon the matter,
look wise and say nothing.

Consistency.

| We remember how the liberty loving
members Of Abolition "Emigrant Aid Sol
ceies" were Mortified when the Lecompton
Convention submitted the clause "For or
| against involuntary servi,uds" for their adop.
tion or rejection, and sci in operation the
State government without submitting the
whole constitution. We now observe that
the ratification by the people Of any part or
derogatory 10 the paramount supremacy Of
the General Government. This grows out OF
the denial Of the inherent right Of The people
to govern themselves, which followed as a nee
cessary sequence, the discovery Of a govern
ment, the existence Of which was the cause Of
such anxious solicitude in 1861 and 1862
Have we government was the inquiry Of
every political squirt in the land. Most of
this cabre performed pilgrimages to sepul-
chres mere or less holy, and were greatly a.
mazed at the strength, especially the military
strength Of that institution, the discovery Of

nal Of revision or rejection. But the Con-
venlion is Instructed to perform three duties
First, TO emancipate the Slaves. Second, to

Mr.. Tilion advises that under the third
duty Of lbe Convention, should be performed
the eveling Of lha loyal black and white by
giving the ballot to all who can read, and
deny it to all who cannot" He adds, "that
there are more blacks in Missouri who can
read than there are whites" Of course, if
this last statement be true, and the advice
was adopted in regard to the ballot, the now
