TALLAuAssRE, Dec. IS 1870
Chief Justice Randall tclegrarhed from Jackson vile
to-day to the resident Justice hero that the Court
would not convene again until the 9th prox unless
required to do SO.
NKw CANVASS.
The majority report OF the State canvassing Board,
In answer to tho writ OF tho Supreme Court was filed
In tho Clerks olco to-day gives tho figures
as were sent 10 the HERALD last night
REASONS ron Tnx BOARDS ACTION.
The reason assigned for tho rejection OF tho en-.
tirc vote OF Clay county, Is that the return was
false It's face, In that It did not givo
sne vote Of the county, ono precinct
having bcen omitted from the return by
the County Canvassing Board II will be
rccoectet that the Board OF State Canvasscrs tho
canvass made the 9Th inst, counted the return,
including tho omitted precinct the vote OF which tho
County Canvasscrs had gwen slough they had not
embodied It In the return rho Court instructed the
Board that they had no power 10 coun: wnat was NOT
shovn tho facc OF the return.
COUNTY CASE
In Baker county the Board counted tho return
signed by the County Judge. which excluded Two pre-
c,ncis the county, when hoy had before them the
roturn from the clerk giving the full aud true vote.
POLITICAL NECESSITY.
But without this process Tho Hayes electors would
save been defeated by % votes.
PROTEST MExBAR the BOARD.
Attorney General Cooke nes his protest against tho
action tho Board these two counes aud says the
Board knowledge that the return OF The Judge In
Baker county did give tho true vote OF she county
aad IL was therefore false and fraudulent, and In Clay
county, he says, tho return was regular in
all respects It's iace and the fact
that II omitted precinct IN the
county, for reasons given by the County Canvasscrs.
Is proper and legal ground Tor throwing out the
Of tho county, and that this action IL IN
direct opposition to tho decision OF the Court.
DEMOCRATIC ACTION pEcIDED or.
The return Of the Board not nlcd until twn
o'clock r. NJ, and being q voluminous paper the
counsel for Governor Drew have not had time 70
