Rule.
For the last three years the radical
papers have harped upon the shocking
impuriiy of the ballot box, especially
i'm New York. One would naturally
suppose that these journals were i'm
maculate. and the tlintesI conception
Of political sin ncverentcred the brain
of their sanclimonious editors. The
careful attention Of our radical bretli-
rem is called to the following picture
from Il Charleston paper, touching the
recent election in that state: Col

were allowed by the radicals To vote
fen their sick husbands. In many pla-
res neither mlnager> nor voters were
sworn. In some counties the number
of votes east exceeded the number at
males over - wears of age. And the
election returns plainly show Tint III

ihc supremacy to produce the result.
every negro over seventeen wears oil
age was permitted and even urged 10

one hand. and the utmost license and
| and fraud on the other, ii is not aston
islIin9 that the reform party should
| have beer. defeated. In this county
alone. outside of the city. armed col
ored bands. styling. themselves the
militia. surrounded the polls and i'll
sisted upon inspecting the tickets OF
the voters. and thus. to great extent,
either drove oil those who wished to
! vote the reform ticket. or intiinidatcd
them into the support OF the radical
nominee. The few white men present
were powcrieSS to resist these black
bands who were encouraged and up
/ held bv the radical authorities; This
/ is a Specimen OF the morality OF The
party whose organs pirate of frauds at
the ballot box. Here is Il picture of

and calculated upon bv radical leaders

mcnt This is the fruit at the illegal
ratification of this so-callcd amend
ment by few members of our state

sanity has encouraged many such bru-

most horrible murders; aud we
think public safety depends upon the
ioing away with any found ,tioms for
such hopes. The fewer verdicts OF
insanity we have. the fewer murders
we shall have, and the fewer murder
