hill to-day defended the Session of Calvary
Church, which absolved her of that offense,
and really put himself in the place of the de.
PENDANT. A motion to drop the proceedings
failed of adoption, and the prosecution win
be pressed.
THE CITY ELECTION.
The election has proceeded quietly all day.
Scarcely a single disturbance of the peace
has occurred. The vote is light, and it is
supposed to be about 80, 900; but as the au-
thorities have not made the usual arrange
ments for ascertaining the total vote and the
forwarding of the count, it is not possible to
| give accurate figures, and owing to the
! amount of scratching the result will not be
known before tomorrow evening Sporting
men are betting even that the entire Demo-
cratic ticket is elected, with the exception in
| some cases of the Coroner. The Democrats
express great confidence of success, while the
Republicans are disposed to claim the cleo
ton OF Mayor, Sheriff and Auditor. There
are reports of frauds perpetrated in the Third
and Fifth Wards. several cases being in
stanced of voting dead or non resident names,
and there are rumors of similar cases in other
b., IL,,k
any material amount of fraudulent voting
has been done.

Ocean House Precinct to hear from. No re-
turns of the count will be received until after

THIRD DISPATCu.l
At midnight about 9 Geo votes were
counted, showing Republican majorities as
follows Mayor, 445 /; Sheriff, 572; Auditor,
4l4; Treasurer, 567. This would indicate a
Republican majority of about 1900 on a
total vote, and as returns are in
from great number of precincts,
that result may be deemed foreshadowed
Republicans have made gains in Democratic
strongholds, while such gains as Democrats
have made have been in Republican pre-
cincts. 1t is noticeable that in precincts
supposed to be controlled by Higgins, Car
non and Chute, who have on the present
occasion Topped over to the Democracy, the
