soma g Republican Frauds,

Since the discovery of overwhelm-
ing proof of wholesale Republican
frauds at the late election in Cincin-
natl, our esteemed contemporary, the
Gazette, has grown strangely silent
upon the subject. Its able editor
should now speak out and show its
| readers how far, when it comes to
stuffing ballot boxes and the like, Re
publican rascals excel Democratic
scamps. Perhaps the editor of the
Gazette is still ignorant of the extent
of the Republican frauds in CincIn-
natl thus far unearthed, and which
bid fair to increase the Democratic
majority in that county to three thou

however, that at the election in Ham.

which register each ticket as it passes
| into the box and stamps upon the
back of 1t the number Of the ward and

law Of the State provides that no tick.

fraud Is thus made easy. Now, as to
the frauds which have beeu discover

An examination Of the ballot box in
precinct A, seventh ward of Cincin-
natl, which, upon the face OF the re-
turns, gave strong Republican ma.
jority, showed that fully one-half Of
the ballots it contained bore no stamp.
The ballots in the box In precinct A,
ward eleven, showed that even worse
frauds had been perpetrated. Though
the dial plate of the box showed that
only eighty-two votes had been hon
estly cast, S34 votes, nearly all Repub.
ncan, were found In the box! OF these
only ten were duly stamped on the

also strongly Republican, all the tick.

to be duly stamped. These were the

been folded together,and voted as one.

Colonel Edward S. Jones.

Mr.. A. M. Sawyer yesterday received a
letter from E. E. Winters, Assistant Adju-
tant General of the Department of Tennessee
and Georgia, g. A. R., announcing the death
OF the Department Commander, Colonel
Edward s. Jones, Colonel of the Sd Pennsyl-
Vania Cavalry, and veteran of the Peninsu-
lar and Malvern Hill, of Antietam. Gettys-
burg, the Wilderness and Petersburg. Col
Jones died on Thursday, Nov. %. He was
an enthusiastic Grand Army man. He or
gsnized the first post in the South below
kentucky-George II. Thomas Post, No. /,
OF Nashville. His efforts secured the estab-
lishment Of other posts in Tennessee. Then
he became, by appointment of the Com
mander-in-chief, Provisional Commander of
the Department of Tennessee and Georgia.
He was next day chosen, by election, the
first Commander Of the Department, and the
unusual honor of reelection was conferred
upon him by the Department Encampment,
at Atlanta in February last. 1t was while
obeying call to organize new post among
the mountains of Alabama, amongst the
members of the old loyal First Alabama
Cavalry, that he caught the serious cold,
which, developing malarial fever, ended his
life after brief illness of about three
weeks.
During Col Jones's visit to Portland, at
the time of the National Encampment here,
his wife fell and broke her hip. For the
kindness of the Department of Maine in
assuming the expenses of Mrs. Jones's i'll
ness, her husband, who could not well afford
to expend the money himself, was deeply
grateful and afterwards in various ways ex-
pressed his thanks.

days overdue. The Franconia left here for

countered gales during her entire passage,
suffering no damage however. On the way
to New York she was obliged to come to an

one vessel ashore and another dragging her
