Honest Elections.

To illustrate what the Radicals
mean by preserving the purity OF
the ballot-box,1 and honest elections,
it is only necessary to notice some OF
the notorious characters who have
been appointed supervisors" by the
Washington despotism to enforce the
new election law of Congress in the
city of New York.
Prominent among the number is
the notorious The. Allen, who is now
in Jail on charge of perjury. An
other is one James McCabc, who has
heretofore been indicted for several
crimes and is now under arrest on a
charge of highway robbery. The
New York Erpress describes another
of these radical supervisors as negro
named Walter Prince, the keeper OF
an oyster house, who dubbed and
robbed a laborer named John McGrath
something over month ago, for
which crime said Prince, supervisor
is now under arrest. No wonder the
Herald administration paper) speaks
of the crowd of supervisors. as O
"hang-dog-set.'

West yirginia EIectior.

The election for Governor, State of
ficers, members of the Legislature
and members of Congress, took place
in West Virginia on Thursday last,
but owing to the want of railroad and
telegraph communication sufficient
news has not been received to deter
mine accurately the result. The
Democrats have made large gains as
far as heard from, and it looks, from
present appearances as though they
have carried the State II is said that
there is no doubt the Democrats have
elected the Congressman from the
First, and probably from the Third
District, and that they have gained
enough members of the House OF
Delegates to give them the control OF
the Legislature. That is doing pref
well in State which the Radicals or.
ganized for the express purpose OF
perpetuating their power.
LATER news renders it pretty GER
tain that the Democrats have carried
theState.by about 6, 900 majority, elect
ing their candidates for Governor and
State officers, a majority in the Leg
islature, which will secure United
States Senator from that State. and
two.of the three members of Congress.

the Republic in fact, as It existed In
former times, was gone. and gone, for

sound, but the exercise or the in
