The Election.

PROGRESSING QUIErLY-DEMOoRATIC ELEC-
T1oN oFFICRRs RETAIN ooLoRED MEMS TAX
RECEIPTS, as UsUAL-GENERAL EFFORT TO
GoUGE REPUBLICANS.
The election, at the hour of going to press,
is progressing quietly, with the prospect of
a comparatively large vote. The Inspec-
tors of the upper Wards are assuming and
exercising an unwarrantable scrutiny over
colored voters tax receipts. Those given by
Lewis Mccall met with the most objection,
many Of them being retained by the
Inspectors and the bearers re-
fused their votes, until some-
body is posted off to get Mr.. McCall's
Judgment on his own signature. Where
Mr.. Mccall keeps himself for the purpose
of being interviewed is one of things only
known to the initiated.
ALI tax receipts minus the county stamp
are also Objectionable and refused. A DEM
ocrat in the Fifth Ward having one without
the stamp told Republican whom he took
to be a Democrat that he knew where
Archie Given was, and hastened off to get
the stamp affixed.
A Democrat voting in the Fifth Ward got
his receipt stamped, when he lamentingly
told an official that he had already voted
twice and now he could vote no more on
account of that stamp. IL is said he was
told by the official to go and get another
one from Given, and that there would be no
trouble in it.
Though there has been no outbreak, there
is general feverishness at the Sixth Ward
polls, which requires squad Of police to
be kept within easy distance.
AT the Seventh Ward, considerable indig-
nation is expressed against Inspector Pos
ties, who is generally very fair in his de-
cision at elections, but who, on the present
occasion, is withholding receipts of colored
voters.
AS general thing, there is less com
plant against the Inspectors of the lower
wards than against those of the Fifth
Sixth, and Seventh.

THE REPUBLICANS WILL CARRY TEE STATE
PROBABLY 10000 MAJORITY.
NEW YORK, oct.3.-A special to the Times,
from Cleveland, after reviewing the situa-
tion in Ohiosat length, concludes :
The prospect in Ohio, therefore, stated
in briefest words, is about this : Both par
ties are working desperately both will poll
their entire strength there may be slight
Republican losses in some of the cities,
which will be more than balanced by gains
in the iron districts; and, finally, the
State will give Republican majority moi
large, perhaps, but surely not less than ter
thousand, which may be expanded to twice
or even thrice that number.

A PLEA FOR THE INDIANs-Hon A. B.
Meacham, ex Superintendent of Indian Az
fairs, and President of the Modoc Peace
Commission, delivered an eloquent plea be-
fore good audience in Grace M. E church
last evening for the " Poor Indian" Gen.
eral Candy, Col. Meacham, and Rev. DIR.
Thomas, were attacked by Captain Jack
and his band of Modocs, in the lava beds,
on the 11th OF April, 1872 at which time Col
Meacham was scalped and left for dead.
Notwithstanding this terrible treatment he
still pleads the cause of the Indian, de-
manding humane treatment from a superiC r
race. The lecture condemned hand
ing the treatment of the Indians
over to the army, as its business was to
conquer and not to pacify. His recital of
the assassination and his narrow escape
from death was thrilling, and his appeal
for poor So Lo" eloquent.

CLOSE OF THE FAIR.-The horticultural
Fair itself closed on Saturday evening, not
having been as successful as in previous
years The receipts each night were less
chan for the corresponding evenings of 9TH

young people, was notably less. What the
nett receipts will be we are not informed,
hut they will very much fall short, and the
"Home" will not receive its usual amount
of aid fr0n this source.
Last evening, a promenade" was given.
Becks string band, of Philadelphia, fur
nished the music from the stand in the CEN
tire Of the Qnstitute) hall, and the affair is
declared to have been success, realizing
$50 for the fund to be given to the Home.
