INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. Son account
of the refusal of the School Trustees
to permit the school buildings to be
used as voting places, it was some
time since decided that all the votes
of the city-divided into three dis
tricts-should be polled at the Court
House. Accordingly at an early hour
this morning large crowds assembled
on Court House Square. The De-
mocracy were on hand in force, de-
termined to carry out their .time-hon
ored maxim as nearly as the registry
law would permit, and to '' vote early
if they could not vote often" Union
men aroused at the eleventh hour by
the grand rally of last night, and the
stirring appeal of Governor Morton,
were also out with the evident
intention of doing what they
could to make up for lost time.
Before eight o'clock long lines had
been formed in front of the windows
at which the Election Boards were to
be stationed, and when the opening
of the polls was announced the sew
eral professions began to advance at
an almost imperceptible rate. Look
ing for and checking each name was
a slow process, consuming about a
minute in each case; but as the work
progressed, the officers became famil-
lar with the lists, and turned off the
business with increasing facility and
dispatch Good nature everywhere
prevailed, and brass band stationed
near the polls contributed to the gen.
eral hilarity.
Every exertion was made through
out the entire day to facilitate the
tedious process Of voting, but it
dragged heavily. Hundreds were con-
stantly in line awaiting their turn,
and when the hour of six arrived it
found large number still waiting,
with no prospect of getting. g.their..votes
