JUDGE SETTLE is defeated by 242 votes +

JUDGE SETTLE is defeated by 242 votes. His
competitor, Leach, had 300 majority two years
since. A letter to the New York Times says
that the former was defeated by shameless
frauds 1t says:
eff Randolph and Caswell counties had cast
their usual Republican majorities Judge Settle
would have been elected by over 300 Caswell
county has registered colored Republican ma
jority of 400, yet it only gave ffty-eight major
ity for Judge Settle. 1 am informed by letter
from there that on election day over 200.colored
men were cautiously challenged and not allowed
to vote. Many others who had been temporari-
ly absent in Virginia, working on a railroad,
whose families and houses were in Caswell,
were refused the right 10 vote, on the ground
that they had lost their residence in the State.
For the purpose of intimidation colored men
were arrested at the polls, bound hand and
feet and carried off to Jail. The effect of the
work done by the Caswell Democrats can be
plainly seen in the result of the election; they
elected their sheriff, and came within seventeen
votes of carrying the entire county ticket, in
clucing members of the Legislature.

A MISERABLE DoDGE.-A despatch from
Kendall's Mills to the Whi0 saws:

The telegram from Portland, headed SHAME
full, if true" in your columns is base fabri-
cation and SANDER on this community The
ton on their flag, 'North Carolina for Gree
ley," but the later returns made their leaders
feel shaky, and they put another inscription on,
anything to beat Grant" and laid it to the
Republicans, and as an excuse for taking of
their first inscription they trod both in the
mud. Not more than three persons saw it, and
they were Greeley men. Bnt the extra efforts
to make political capital out of it, showed at
once the originators of this little game, and the
result is a reaction that promises to work more
all the rest of the campaign.

THEATRE.-NIr. Bourcicaults drama of the
the Long Strike was reacted last night at Music
Hall, but unfortunately to very small au-
dience, on account of the excessive heat There
is no denying that in the character of ''Money-
penny" the Lawyer, Mr. Stoddart is very
amusing, making more of it than any other
actor in the United States could. He breaks
the cross shell of the character and lays bare
the kernel of kindness very effectively, 'sNoah
Learoyd" lis one of Mr.. Kinds best parts. He
paints the wronged and harsh sincerity of the
workingman with great truth. Mr. Ringgold,
as 'Jenn Starkey," is also manly, tender and
judicious Mr.. Rockwell is not often cast in a
role which shows him off better than 'tRichard
Radley" does, and Mr.. Holland was very nat
ural, earnest and simple Some of the scenes
in the sIong Strike" were of Wallackian beau
ty and complementary one will know what
is meant by this adjective. The celebrated
scene in the telegraph ofdce struck out the US
ual emotion, and Mr. Stoddard was rapturously
received and applauded throughout.
We are glad to notice that tourists and plea
sure seekers are beginning to appreciate Lake
Sebago and the Songo river. The rush of travel
has been so great that the steamboat company
have been obliged to alter the arrangement of
boats. The Sebago, the larger of the two now
connecting with the morning train from Port
land and returning to connect with the evening
train in, while the Oriental takes the afternoon
passengers over the lakes.
