A Warning to Illegal Voters.


A Warning to Illegal Voters.
We mentioned last week that more negroes
than whites had been registered 10 this county,
and at the same time insisted that there were
more white voters unregistered than blacks.
We still adhere to that opinion in defiance of
the large majority of negroes who have been
registered during this years registration, and
il the Republican party thinks it can win in
the Sixth Congressional district by these pal
pable frauds which have been practiced, it will
find itself vastly mistaken. The Democrats
while willing to submit gracefully 10 fairly
accomplished defeat, do not intend to be
swindied out of their Congressman by the
votes of hundred perjured negroes who have
been exported within the last two months from
Washington into this county. We are not
hazarding this assertion without knowing
whereof we speak, but we can secure the proof
10 sustain ii, and we warn Republicans now
that every one of these illegal voters If they
attempt to vote in this or Berry's district on
the day of election will be promptly arrested
and made to suffer the penalty of their crime.
And Furthermore we hare our eyes upon the
men who are accomplishing this work and
who are bringing these illegal voters to our
county, and they shall be punished well as
the dupes whom they are leading into this
crime. II the Democrats are defeated in this
election they intend 10 be whipped by fair
means and not by those frauds which. Repub-
licans are practicing to retain that power
this country which has already over-fooded
it with deluge of evils. And we repeat that
an, officer will be on hand to arrest every one
of these Illegally registered negroes who at
tempts to vote, and handcuffed with their cor
rupt leaders they will be marched to jnil. We
want every man who is entitled 10 vote TO
exercise that privilege, and we want every man
who is not entitled TO vote to stand back, with
hands off; for we know our rights and will
defend them in the teeth of United States
Marshals and federal bayonets.
ELEorIoNs.-Latesl returns up 10 the hour
of going 10 press indicate that Georgia has
gone Democratic by an immense majority.
Lacal elections in Delaware show large Demo-
cratic gains. In Colorado the vote is very
close and the new State is claimed by both
parties. AT the democratic headquarters at
Denver the democrats claim the election of
Governor, Congressman and the whole legis-
lative ticket Democratic majar,ies, are re-
ported from Central City, Black Hawk,
Trinidad, Bonlton and other places.
The news from Europe all tends to show
that Russia means to fight Turkey upon the
soil OF Servia. The avowal by Servia of a
determination not 10 submit except in case of
foreign occupation, and to so on with the
Sighting until the independence of Servia and
Bosnia is secured, affords full evidence that
Russia is behind her in making these bold de-
elaratons. The London Times does not hesi-
tate to say that the situation is most alarming
for the peace of Europe.
henry c. England, Esq, of this town,
formly a Republican, but has seen the error
of his ways, is now strong convert to the

After travelling over the various Southern
States, DR.. Red6eld, correspondent of the Gin
cinnati Commercial, comedies them all to
Tilden except South Carolina, with an ag-
Rregate majority of $4,000. In regard to
South Carolina he says: al am almost per-
suaded that Hampton will be elected, troops
or no troops and probably the State carried
for Tilden. Things look that way at present
writing
In recent speech in New York, Mr.. R. Fl
Mari, of Louisiana, said 81 can tell yor
another thing, and that is that the coloret
people of the Southern States are going tc
vote more largely with the democratic part,
bis year than they ever have done before
