Immense Frauds In the New York
Election.

Election.
The New York Sun publishes the
following:
VAT the general election in NoVem-
Der, 1860, Immediately after the last
census, the city cast one vote for every
eight and a half of population, or 95.-
583 votes in all. The present census
will show that our population has in
creased less than 100000 up to the
present time. Yet at the Presidential
election two years ago under Tammany
manipulat on we were made to show
voting population of 156, ,O50, gain of
GO 467 in eight years.
This is nearly as much as the en-
tire gain of our population in ten years.
That this vast increase of voters Is
wholly fictitious and fraudulent. is
made apparent by a hastY examina-
ton.
AT the ratio of voters to the popu-
lation as shown in 1860, the increased
vote of 1868 would represent an In
crease OF population OF 463, 1863, max
ing total population two years ago OF
1.Z77,631. But at the general election
of last fall which was closely contest
ed the city pollei for Secretary oi
State but 112,019votes, many OF which
were admitted to be fraudulent. Thl:
represents a population of but 952 .16l
Last spring we polled for Chic
Justice 104, ,339, and for the two high
est aldermanie Candidates on eltheI
side IO5, ,145 votes. showing, according
to the ratio of 1860, population Q
S90307.
"Of course the voting population
does not all vote at every election, bu
in this general way we arrive at To
approximate results. Thus we prov
the accuracy of the census now taken
which, It is estimated. will sbow
population of about nine hundre
thousand.
How, then was the immt nse vot
Of 1868 made up? Clearly By %
Tammany system of repeaters, ballot
box stufing and fraudulent returns.
1T is now apparent that even ID
moderate vote of last fall was largel
of fraudulent character. This !
shown by a comparison of the el@c
ton returns of that election with IN
census returns now coming 10.
In some districts she yo,e exceed
the population; In others, 1t rs nearl
equal to it; in many, il is more tha
one third of the population, and
on, showing frauds OF the most glaTln
nature. We ask cur friends OF II
city and the admirers of honest eleC
tions. to examine these figures.
