tration paper and will be fled away to be used
if necessary, hereafter, as evidence. The
papers will be taken care of, and should be
given without hesitancy, due caution, however.

1t is reported that squads of negroes in the
different wards are being trained to stuff bal

The leaders Of the faithful consider it very
easy to deposit five tickets instead of one,
when you know how. U. S. Commissioners
have the right to satisfy themselves by ex-
animation, that voter is depositing but one
ballot, and if they do their duty, this little
game will be spoiled.

In the Georgia election the people were
told that if they kept their carpet-baggers in
the halls of Congress they could do more for
the State than the gallant men like Gen. John
B. Gordon, who had led Georgians in the
field and was identified with the interests of
the State. Gen. Gordon has now more inau-
ence in the Senate than all the carpetb-aggers
in the South, and Gen. Gibson, who led Loui-
sianians in the field, and others of our candi-
dates, will have more influence than dozen
Syphers and others of that ilk. Gentlemen
OF refinement and culture always possess more
influence than unscrupuious knaves.

to race, color or previous condition.
