Nontc4tcu E1ecxlon IN mofEA1 County,
We learn that the candidates upon the Re
publican ticket In Morgan county have fled
notices that they intend to contest the cleo
tion- The grounds on which the Union can-
dfdatcs claim tho election are stated to be;
only so voters appear upon the poll.book,
while the returns and tally show that 554
votes were counted. This excess Is claimed
to hare been incl1ded by the Judges In the
Democratic vote, aud It Is believed that true
result of the vote Mt that poll Will prove TINT
the entire Union ticket, with one exception,
Was elected. I'd. It is found By Investigation
that about thirty-nine illegal Democratic
votes were cast at various polls throughout
the county, und that upon rejecting these votes
the Democratic majorities win be overcome.
%. On account Of certain acts Of the Judges
Of Election In Sulphur Springs Precinct, It is
claimed that the vote Of that precinct
should be thrown aside and dfsrcGarded. It
seems TINT the judges, after closing the poll,
adjourned over until the next day without
This Is In direct conflict with the law passed
at the last session of the Legislature, which
provides that after the polls are opened the
judes shall take no recess or adjourn until the
yotes are canyassed and the result made pub
llc. Meanwhile, however, the two defeated
Democratic candidates have also served
notices OF intention to contest, upon their
they were elected by means OF many Illegal
votes, and that the registry Law Ia nnconsti-
tutional and therefore void. Morgan county
Is thus in sweet snar4 over the matter, but
II no further facts AEc brought to light, there
Is no doubt bpt that the entire Republican
ticket will be declared elected and the Office
awarded to them.-Stdte Journal.

The Dutch Cap Canal.

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-The Herotd gives a
complete history of the Dutch Gap Canal
It was commenced in August last, and w
to the day c: the explosion of the bulk
head, three regiments Of white and colored
soldiers were detailed for the special work,
averaging from la0 to 10 men employed
daily, on an average OF ten hours. The
canal IS 522 feet long, and the creates,
width Of excavation is I'D feet aud the
depth IS feet. The width of the canal pro-
per is IS feet at the top and 45 feet at the
bottom. At high water there will be a
depth OF Is feet. From these facts some
idea may be formed OF the immensely OF
the work. Surprising that the canal, in
consequence of the heavy batteries bear
ing upon it, cannot be completed at pres
ent, the work, as far as it has been carried,
is so much gained in an enterprise, that
when it shall be completed, will always be

cial interests Of Richmond. The explosion
OF the bulkhead of the canal on the ist
inst, was witnessed by large number OF
