How nARYLAAD WAS CARxIED

s,ross Fraud and Intimidation.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 4.-Eleotion day
has been clear and SO cold as to keep
crowds from the polls, and the election
in this city passed without unusual dis
turbance. The most exciting CANVASS
in the State has been in How
ard County, where Carey, the
Republican candidate for Governor,
aud A. P. German, candidate for
United States Senator, and the head OF
the Democratic State Ring, both live
On a fair vote the county is Republican.
To prevent Gary from carrying II
gang of 100 Democratic ward round
ers left this city early. At Elkridgs
they found a crowd Of colored Re-
publicans at the polls, fired upon
and drove them away, wounding two
seriously. Proceeding to Tykesville,
the roughs fred upon and scattered
another crowd of colored voters. The
Deputy Sheriff dared not serve the
warrant issued for the arrest OF the
ringleaders, fearing for his life, and re-
fused to call for posse, fearing that
greater violence would ensue. Ellicott
was visited by gang of Baltimore re.
peaters. Another gang visited the Third
District in Howard County, ana dis
persed the Republican voters, and shot

Republican Judges of Election were
appointed. A large number OF
negroes were disfranchised, and the
Democrats carried the county by the
grossest frauds. The Baltimore reg
istration records were tamprred with
whole pages of names of colored voters
being scratched out. The City So
preme Court decided that corrections
could not be made, leaving disfran'
chsed one-,hird of the colored voters
in the city without chance of redress.

WAsHIxoroS, Nov. 3.-The following
proclamation was issued to-day by the
President:
A PROCLAMATION.
At no recurrence Of the season which
the devout habit Of q religious people
has made the occasion for giving
thanks to Almighty God and humbly
invoking his continued favor, has
the material prosperity enjoyed by
our whole country been more conspi.
cuous, more manifold or more univeral.
During the past year, also, unbroken
peace with all foreign nations, the gen
eral prevalence Of domestic tranquility,
the supremacy and security Of the great
institutions Of civil and religious free
dom, have gladdened the hearts Of our
people and confirmed their attachment
to their Government, which the wisdom
and courage of our ancestors 80 fitly
framed, and the wisdom and courage Of
their descendants have so firmly main
tanned, to bs the habitation of liberty
and juctice to successive generations.
Now, therefore, l, Rutherford b.
Hayes, President of the United States,
do appoint Thursday, the 9th day of
November instant, as a day of Nation
al Thanksgiving and prayer; and !
earnestly recommend that with
drawing themselves from secular
cares and labors, the people of the Uni
ted States do meet together on that day
in their respective places of worship,
there to give thanks and praise to Al
mighty God for his mercies, and to de-
vontly beseech their continuance.
In witness whereof have hereupto
set my hand and caused the seal OF the
United States to be affixed. Done at the
City OF Washington this 3D. day of No
veinber, in the year Of our Lord one thou
sand sight hundred and seventy nine,
and of the independence of the United
States the one hundred and fourth.

and finally succeeded in bringing Off
GERS Dowlan and Bddewell in to arrest
him; when the officers were taking him
out he struck me again knocking mt
down on the stairway. Squire I'm
afraid that he'll kill either me or tht
children yet"
AT the close Of Mrs. Butchers testi
mony the acting Mayor asked Butcher
whether he had any questions to ask the
witness.
"Yes, sir, answered the prisoner, and
turning to his wife, said, "Mrs. Butcher,
what is the cause of my abusing you ~
Mrs. B1tcher-''Rum."
This was apparently settler for Ed

ard remarking that a man must indeed
be brute who would thus maltreat a
woman, fined the prisoner $40 and

BURNED TO DEATH.
Two Young Girls Perish in .
Barnlng House.

| A despatch from Atlanta, Ga, says:
| The news of a horrible calamity LA
just reached this city. Mr.. J. F. R-y
nolds, worthy farmer, living neal
Jonesboro, Ga, was awakened last
night by cracking sound, like a sharE
driving rain. on the roof. Half asleep
Il, muttered to his wife, 1--WE are bav.
ing good rain," and turning over,
fell asleep again. In short time he
was awakened again, and went out to
see what the sound was. 1t proceeded
from an up stairs room in which his
daughter, Of 13 years, and his wife's
sister, Miss Robinson. aged sixteen, was
sleeping.
He hurried up the steps, and when
just at the door discovered the house
was on fire. He rushed to the door
and threw himself against it. Just at
this instant the roof fell in and the
flying embers. were scattered every
where, He heard the piteous screams
of the children, but after trying the
door repeatedly found that he could
not reach them. They were dazed with
terror, blinded by the flame, and did
not have the presence of mind to open
the door. Mr.. Reynolds was terribly
burned, and the staircase falling in he
plunged through the broken wall to
the outside.
Finding that his wife was still in the
burning house he rushed in to save her.
He succeeded in doing this, though
probably at the sacrifice of his own
life, as he is so burned that he will
probably die. His wife is not seriously
injured. The screams of the girls,
which were heard up to the moment OF
their death are described as heart rendss
ing. They were burned to cinders.
At latest accounts Mr.. Reynolds was
wild with pain aud grief, and was
shrieking like maniac, being utterly
frantic and beside himself. Many per-
sons have gone from Atlanta to the
scene Of the burning. The house was
an old-fashioned two story frame farm
house. The origin Of the fire is un-
known, though it is thought it came
from the locality of the girls room.
