INDICTED o ELECTION FRAUDS.-

as a majority of the Board of Canvas
sers Of Halifax county, for a willful and
fraudulent refusal to count and declare
the votes cast at Halifax polling place,
and as returned 20 the canvassers by
the Registrar and Inspectors OF Halifax
Tow ship. The Grand Jury also found
a true bill against Dempsey Bryant,
Jr., J. j. Cuthrell, and Jonas Cohen,
as Inspectors of Election at Enfield. in
Halifax county, for changing the bal
lot box for another box that contained
a very large majority of Democratic
ballot. for Congressman. Enfield
Township is Republican by over 900
majority, and by change of boxes the
township was made t o give over 600
Democratic majority. An attempt was
made at Weldon to change the ballot
box, but the Republicans were vigilant
and prevented the change, although
the lights were blown out and the box
was carried some distance from the
polling-place. At Enfield an xcu
was made to change from the voting
place used during the day to another
place at night to count out the ballot
box, and in this way the boxes were
changed. 1t cropped cut in the inves
LEGATION before the Grand Jury that
duplicate ballot boxes were made and
stuffed with Democratic ballots tor
every polling-place in Halifax county.
By some means this well laid scheme
to defraud the Republicans Of Halifax
county miscarried at every polling
place except Enfield. The Halifax
box, giving 600 Republican majority,
WAS thrown out and no: counted, and

Mr.. Edward Aston of Fork town

Mr.. Edward Aston, of Fork town
ship, this county, is a most fortu-
nate man. lie has long known that
there was a good deal of gold on his
place, but has never Systematically
worked it. Recently, a Mr.. Irwin,
from Onslow, county, this State, has
been prospecting There without ma
chinery of any kind. Last week be-
tween sunrise and sunset Mr.. Irwin
found what miners call a pocket, TWEEN
ty-six feet in the ground, and took out
in pure gold l113 pennyweights. A
penuyweight is about ninety six cents;
so there were found in less than six
hours, over $l,l00 in gold. During
this work he took out one wash pan
of dirt in which there were $l5O in
gold. The largest piece of gold found
weighed forty-nine pennyweight, and
numbers were found ten to twenty pen
nyweights. The above statement we
get from Mr.. Aston, and we know it
is true, for there is no more reliable
gentleman to be found.
But while telling tie good part, we
must not omit something else. MIR.
Irwin, who lives in a small house to
himself, had the same broken open q
few days afterwards during his absence
at the mine, and nearly all he had sto-
len-among other things, the gold he
he had found, II twenty dollar gold
piece, several two and a half dollar
gold pieces and other things. 1t is
supposed that the thief or thieves, as
they knew nothing about the gold, the
finding having been kept quiet, enter
ed the building only for the purpose
Of petty pilferilg. but after getting in,
found and carried off more than they
expected. Mr.. Aston offers a most
liberal reward, we think one half of
the amount stolen, but are not positive
for the recovery Of the money. As it
is mostly crude. %uncoined gold, it would
seem that the thief, if he ever offers to
sell it, might easily be detected. As
we have before stated. the above is
beyond question true, and we hope and
believe that the mine will be so worked
as to yield much money to its wner.-
