BATTLE OF THE BALLOT.

A MOST EXCITING ELECTION.
HOW THE RADICAL REFoRMERs MADE GOOD
THEIR BOAST, THAT THEY WOULD WIN AT
ALL HAZARDS.
Yesterday was the most exciting cleo:
ton event this city has experienced since
the days when the war governor carried
everything before him by force and fraud.
Then the military was used to overawe the
opposition. Yesterday colored moo was
resorted to. Colored men were transported
rom one polling place to another and re-
peated with impunity, the leaders having
grouped large number of their friends
around the ballot-boxes to intimidate
challengers. This was the programme
and it was carried out TO the letter, and
thus the eolored vote was placed where it
would do the most good. In the Thirteenth
man was challenged and, hav-
ing escertained from his own
answers that he was net legal voter, he
was placed under arrest. Hardly had the
officers got him under good Roadway for
the station house when his friends rallied
to the rescue and succeeded in releasing
him. They then returned with him IN
triumph and succeeded in voting him
the Democrats preferring to suffer the
outrage rather than assume the response
bility for the row that might esult. Incl
dents Contamination and repeating might
ne multiplied, but as such Radical ring
leaders as Dan Ransdeli admit
that they were working to win
regardless of the means necessary to
resort to, to accomplish that end,
suffice it TO say that q greater farce was
never enacted in this country outside the
tate OF Louisiana, which has also strug-
gled under the misrule of Morton's min
ions. Wards that the Radicals were GER
tain of carrying, such az the Tenth, were
comparatively quiet. The principal
points of attack, so to speak,
were the Fourth and Fifth Wards,
the ring masters having betorr
asserted their determination to carry
them, especially the former, at wbatevtr
cost. They succeeded, but had not the
Democrats OF the ward, who dared to go
to the polls, been very discreet there
would have been more trouble tnan there
was. AS it was, one man was knocked
down and dragged out and others kept
sloof from the polls rather than incur
the risks of meeting like fate.
This polling place was in q feverish state
OF excitement during the entire day, but
toward evening the colored cloud lifted
and floated to the Fifth and finally set out
for the Sixth, and succeeding in raising
such storm as they had not anticipated.
But as that is fully described else ahere
we will here give the result OF the days
balloting:

crumpled piece OF paper, and handing 1t to
Mr.. Cole. After looking at it tor long
time, for it was badly written, badly
spelled and blurred, he made out this:
"Al good people: These children amt

They amt got no folks here; and their

Mr.. Cole sat down by the boy, who was
about l3 years of age and bright. He
