LEE DASGERs OF Lottery PI.AYTEa.--
The louisville Journal says of Joseph
Bloongart, first assistant teller 10 the
United States Surveyors Office of that
city. who was arrested o few DAYS since
On charge Of embe zzliRg SD 600,
that since 1861 he has woed the tickle
goddess, Fortune, and has been thrice
bankrupted thereby and occasioned
much suffering and financial embarrass-
ment to his relatives aud friends The
dame seems never to have smiled upon
him. In 1861, when this mania first
sezed Blocmgart, he was well estab-
lished in the fancy goods business
somewhere on Main street. So over
leaping was bis ambition for sudden
wealth, that Ia a very short time he
sacrificed everything he possessed at the
lottery wheel His family aud friends
came TO his relief, paid off his debts,
and enabled him To start in business on
Market street. There he pruspered
nntiisthe old desire luTed him back to
the habit or ''trying his luck. :" Before
long he found himself penniless once
more, and himself and family not only

he rallied, aud procured business
enough to support his family. Through
their persuasion he conquered his pas
sion for lottery-playing, and returned
to his ''Old love" only within the last
two weeks, and then entirely unkuown
to any OF his aequaintanees. The hut
initiating result of that backward step
rs known to the public. 1t is no lesc
strange than true that every dollar of
the money lately embezzled (S12 000,)
aud all that previously lost by Bloom
CART, was spent for lottery tickets. He
never used a farthing of IT 40. providing
for his wife and children. To this
purpose he always devoted his salary
while in the cnstom-house, and pre-
scribed sum while merchandising He
IS man of steady and moral habits,
and no one is more attached TO his FAM
lily. Altogether the case is unparal-
lie ed.

The official vote of the Second ward shows
a majority there for the constitution of 427,
instead of $50 as reported.
The official vote of the Eighth ward shows
majority there against the constitution of

Republican majority in the Seventh, Eighth,

will increase it.

The commissioners of election declined
to count the ballots Saturday evening, and
the chairman took the boxes to his resi-
denoe. On Monday morning the Republican
supervisors saw the ballots as they were
counted. and many ballots were then found
to be scratched. This accounts for the vote
for the constitution being less than for
Judge Warmoth, and for the small vote for
sheriff and tax assessor, though the ballots
were deposited without erasure. This box
was made of tin, and had lock on it. Affi-
davits will be made of the facts in the case,
and the guilty parties will be likely to get
what they were not disposed to allow to Re-
publican voters-justice.

A CARD FROM nIK. AEAsICOT.

We publish the subjoined card
from Mr.. Masicot, in reply to one
that appeared in the morning Times
As the new constitution does not
require that Recorder shall be thirty
years of age, we can not see that it is a
material question whether Mr.. Masicot is
that old or not. AS to the alleged fact that
he left the rebel forces and joined the Union
army, we hope that such meritorious act
would not disfranchise him. But Mr. Mast
cot denies that it is true:
New ORLEANS, La, April II, 1868.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN,:
Ny attention has been called to a commu-
nication in the New Orleans Times of this
date, signed Third District which if true
would do me injustice. The fact that the
author did not see fit to make this state
ment over his own name is sufficient evil
dence of its untruthfulness.
