hISGsToN, N. ", Nov. 1O.-In regard to fraud in

che State as fraudulent, 1t is only fair to both par
ties that the whole truth concerning It should at
once be made known, The full electoral ballot
box was found to contain nineteen more ballots

excess Of votes was drawn out by men blindfold-

fraud was intended the parties failed. The Re-

majority, which is the ordinary vote. The roll

A Queen with Dirty Linen.

Queen Isabella, daughter of Phillip
H., who fourished in the twelfth CEN
fury, vowed not to exchange her linen
till the City of Ostend had been taken
BY her soldiers. The difficulties that
sometimes interfere with military enter
prises evidently did not occur to the
lady at the time she made her vow, but
unfortunately the siege lasted three
years, and so singularly truthful was
her Majesty's character that she kept
her oath to the last. To testify their
regard for her persistency the ladies OF
the court adopted dingy yellow color
for their ruffs and stockings, which they
christened & Lsebeau. This was the
origin of the tint known as ecru,
which comes up to the top wave in
fashions occasionally, and would per-
haps be less in favor were it remem-
bered that it was originally made to
resemble, as far as possible, very dirty
linen.-L0ndon Times.
