owing to an alleged Justification Of the

272 votes were returned for Frost,
Democrat, but after tho returns reach
ed the clerks Office the figures we're
found to be changed to 1872, and the
clerk expressed his belief that they had
been tampered with in his Office The
canvassers, who met on Friday,
decided that they could not 60 behind
the fact Of the returns, and therefore
counted 292 for Frost This gave
Frost one majority over Metcalfe, the
the Republican candidate. On applica-
ton of Metcalfe, the Circuit Court
granted a mandamus to prevent the
issue Of certificate to Frost until the
case could be heard on Monday. The
u. S. Marshall was about to arrest the
canvassers and their legal advisers. but
deferred action when he learned of the
proceedings Of the Court

A SCANDAL EXPLODED. has often
been said that Ulysses Grant used to
be democrat before the war. We are
happy to be able to state, on the au-
thority Of q resident Of Galena, Illinois,
"a strong Republican, who has lived
there many years and knew Grant init
mately. that he never was democrat
but was always an opponent Of the
party.
Ben. Butler was once democrat and
SO was John Forney and Bill Tweed.
These were bad enough, but thank
Heaven Grant, Shepherd and Kellogg
never were.

be is considered the best Of authority
on election matters, and his plans for
debauching the ballots. which are pre-
cisely the same as those Of two years
ago, are approved with the greatest

Hon. Montgomery Blair has written q
third letter on the presidential question,
elected by the action OF the New York
Democratic State Convention in recon-
mending Governor Tilden. He Says the
resolutions were iudicious and in gootstaste,
and with Governor Tilden as the Demo
cratic nominee that party would achieve a
victory (Which would not be q partisan tri-
umph any more than the triumph OF the
Republican party while upholding the Union
was 3 partisan victory" MIR. Blair says
that Governor Tilden has not considered the
work of reform party business, and will
not stay his hand in it for party reasons.
