DEMOCRATIC Election En-

DEMOCRATIC ELECTION FRAUDs.-Tbe
strong hold of the Democracy, in the present
campaign, is ''hoaesty and political purity
This is the cry that will for a time, ring
throughout the land. But unfortunately
their record is against them OF late they
have been rather limited in their opportuni-
ties, but have managed to flourish, in their
peculiar way, in different election districts
OF the larger cities New York has been
the chief point for the display of election
frauds but the census returns are beginning
70 60 develop the Same thing in Philadelphia.
IL Is well known that the number of voters,
as compared to population, in any communi
ty, Is one to seven. Yet in the Fourth ward
OF Philadelphia, out of l6, 7O3 white nonnIa.
tion, there were polled a total of 5, AZ votes
or one in three Oft the white population Tb;,
is rather strong dose of honesty.

ADemocratic Boston paper fears that
''many colored man of quick parts and in
teliigence, but whose ambition far outruns
the temptation of party politics" Likely

orthodox Democrats school, and without
such quick parts or intelligence, has been
ruined in the same way.

The census returns of New York city
continue to expose the frauds practiced ty
its virtuous Democratic rulers. In some
districts the vote exceeds the population
in others it nearly equals it, and in others
it is more than one third of the population,
showing in all instances frauds of the most
glariug nature

vices of brother minister, rendered to him
at the close of the day the usual fee for preach
ing, which, i'll those days lit was before the
war;, was ten dollars. Such sum for such
work was then thought good pay. But on
this occasion the man was slow to take it, and
finally said while putting it in his pocket
book:
Il talked TO the SuudGy-school nearly half
an hour; and besides, had some conyersa-
ton with an impatient sinner on the steps Of
the church, and thought nifty cents more
could be about right" -....
