NUMEROUS DEALERS ARRESTED IN NEW YORK
| sTARTLING DEVELOPMENTS PROMISED
WHERE THE PEOPLES MONEY GOES, &C.
New YORK, November 12.-The excite
ment among the lottery-dealers OF the city
consequent upon the recent raid upon
them BY Anthony Comstock and his Off
GERS was kept alive yesterday by other ar
rests and voluntary surrender OF parties
implicated. The specific charge made
against the lottery-dcalers is violation OF the
post-office law in sending prohibited matter
! through the mails. Yesterday about fifteen
Others appeared before United States Com
missioner Shields; among them 3. Frank
Moore, agent Of the Louisiana Lottery
Company. The Times says OF the arrest OF
Moore, who is agent OF NJ. A. Dauphin, OF
| New Orleans:
sit is expected TO lead to some very
startling Developments growing out OF the
suit brought in the United States Court by
Marcus Cicero Stanley against Charles IT.
| Howard snd John \. Morris, who are prin-
| cipals IN and control the Louisiana Lottery
| COMPANY. Dauphin states in advertise
| mGnts in some of the daily papers that all
| OF the hundred thousand tickets which are
| issued in each monthly scheme arc sold be-
fore the drawing takes place. This. if true,
| indicates the gross receipt OF S20O,000
monthly. OF which they claim to distribute
$4,000 in prizes, leaving 100000 to pay
running expenses, Including advertising,
rents, salaries, printing, and postage.
"This, in the opinion OF men who know
| a great deal about business, leaves month
ly margin of profit OF from $4,000 to s4o,-
| 600 to be divided among four or five per-
sons, and giving each OF them an income OF
about 100000 year. tits said That seven
| eighths of the tickets are now sold in this
| city and State, and that as 4 consequence
about $4,000 month is paid by New
Workers for the pleasure, profit, or privl-
lege OF INDUCING in this little game OF
LouiSanaians. The company is said to have
been driven to seek market in the East,
because they had about exhausted the Pc
cuniary resources OF the people OF Loui$i-

Especial telegram 10 the Dispatch.1
STANTON, VA, November 1.-THE an
nual meeting Of the Valley Railroad stock
holders was held here to-day. Baltimore,
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, Lexing-
ton, Staunton, and Rockbridge were repre-
seEted. The meeting was BARN onious and
buSiness-like.
President Keysers report was brief and
to the point. He showed the affairs Of the
company to be in a prosperous condition,
the gross earnings Of the road for the pres
ent year amounting 70 about $4,000; ex.
penses, $4,000; net earnings, S10,701.51
against S5,061.41 last year. The debt to the
Baltimore and Ohio Company had been re.
duced 3l5,502. Referring to the improved
financial outlook, he thinks be is warranted
in predicting that by the end OF the next
year the floating debt will be liquidated.
He regrets the action Of the last Legisla-
ture, which he thinks is equivalent to prac-
teal confiscation OF the road, as the CON-
pany cannot push it forward TO Salem I'M
less it can effect mortgage TO raise the
means, and capitalists will not loan their
money to a corporation which will have its
property forfeited in less than two years il
impossible conditions are not fulfilled. He
says honey could not now be procured on
Virginia securities or securities Of Virginia
corporations because OF the widespread
public distruss, which had been increased
by the result OF the late election, which the
public had been led to believe turned unon
the question of whether the debt CT the
State should be properly paid or not.
The committee TO whom was referred the
report OF the President recommended, in
accordance with his suggestion, that q COM
miteee of five, representing those who were
most active in procuring the hurlful legisla-
ton, be appointed TO urge before the next
General Assembly the repeal OF the act re-
ferred 10. After some discussion and oppo-
sition from Major j. Z. Dorman the CON-
mttee's report was unanimously adopted.
All the former officers were reelected, and
Osborne Latrobe, OF Baltimore, to succeed
Richard Norris, deceased.

That was a somewhat curious case which
Chief.Jndge Nelson decided in Brooklyn
last week. A defeated litigant discovered
after the trial OF his cause that one OF the
Jurors whose name appeared on the panel,
and who ostensibly sat in the jury-boX, did
not serve at all, having obtained release
from iury-duty through the representative
Of his ward in the Common Council. His
place, however, was tiled by another man,
who is unknown. and Judge Nelson con-
fesses his inability to ascertain who the
substitute was. This would seem not to be
difficult matter. His Honor holds that
the pretended Juror was no juror at all !;
that he was an intruder in the iury-room,
ami that the verdict in the case in question
cannot stand. This incident discloSesa new
possible danger in the system OF trial by
jury as conducted at present. Such SUBJ
situations OF outsiders for regularly drawn
Jurors doubtless do not occur often; but
in this case the discovery was made by ac-
cldent, and only after the pretender bad
participated in the rendering OF bali a
dozen verdicts, more or less.-Neo York
Tribune.

Republicans except Seymour.
The Ssn says the official returns from
abont bali Of the counties show slight Re-
pu biican gains over the previous estimates
enough TO Indicate that the vote for Lieu

the Republicans may have carried the re-
nainder of the State ticket, engineer and

NEW YORK. November 1s-The Eve2sng
Telegraph says: " Information from all
sources goes 10 show that the Republican
State ticket carries the State except for State

are those who still cling hopefully TO a

points to-"
New YORK, November 12.-When the
Board of County Canvasssrs were abons to
begin the canvassing Of the returns in the
late election to-day, one OF their number
objected to the counting of the vote on the
ground OF probable ilesality OF returns,
inasmrch as it did not appear from
the return proposed to be canyassed
that the officers voted FOR were on
scratched or regular tickets, no ballots
appearing upon the return as required by
the law. The ballot, be maintained, should
be pasted on the return, and the number
OF votes cast for that ballot should be writ
ten partly on that ballot, and continued on
returns, as decided by Judge Davs's charge
yesterday in the case Of the indicted cleo
ton inspectors. The Board, he contended,
would render itself liable to indictment Il
they proceeded to canvass such returns, as
they were not in conformity with the cleo
ton law. Recess was taken to get the
opinion Of the corporation counsel in re-
gard to the matter.
