Fraud in New York City Voting.
(New York Evening Post.)


 The last touch of moral impressive ness has now been added to the man. date by which the people of the state of New York have decreed that there shall be held next year a convention. for the making over of their fun damental law. That the total vote cast was only one-fifth or one-sixth of the vote at an ordinary election Was known at once; that the majority in favor of the convention was not much more than a thousand, and that. apart from the vote controlled by Murphy and his machine, the proposal was defeated by very heavy majority, became known when the official count was given out, and now come reve- lations of fraud, apparently on large scale. That these are not mere ru- mor is solidly attested by the indict- ment by the grand jury of no less than four election officials. It is likely that this will be followed by further arrests. The figures of the vote in certain election districts are in themselves highly suggestive of fraud The hunting down of these frauds, and the prosecution and punishment of all persons who can be shown to have been guilty of them, should be pushed with all possible vigor, irrespective of the question whether the exposure ca n or cannot carry with it the invalida- tion of the alleged result of the elec- tion. Assuming that that result is to stand, sinister light is cast by it on the possibilities of the next step in the matter the election of delc- gates to the convention It is q mel ancholy business altogether and, un- less great care is taken of the sit- uation by the sound citizenship of the state, the outcome, in the convention itself, may be deplorable.

One of the First Regiments.

One of the First Regiments.
 Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.)
 On May 8, 1861, the Thirteenth New York volunteer regiment, 1000 men strong. marched to the railway station and entrained for the front, to engage in the warfare for the preservation of the Union. On Saturday night last twenty three of the forty survivors or the Fighting Thirteenth" attended the annual reunion at the home of the son of Colonel Francis A. Schofield, one of the officers of the regiment. Only thirty-five members reside in the vii cinity of Rochester and seven of them were kept from the reunion by ill., ness.
 Rochester and it's vicinity contrib uted many officers and soldiers to the Civil war, and older residents will re- call the day. When the Thirteenth regiment started for the south. It was recruited before the time when liberal bounties were offered, and be- fore the necessity for draft arose. It was composed almost entirely of younger men, and they were, as sub- sequent events proved. genuine fight Ing men. Many DlunueTS were IIlduc in the opening months of the war for the suppression of the rebellion, and the Thirteenth suffered more or less from these errors, inevitable, per- haps, when nation which has long enjoyed peace is plunged into war. But the handful of gray-haired vet erans who assembled last Saturday night. probably some of them for the last time, represented as brave and gallant a regiment as rallied to the colors in the dark days of '61.
 The veteran regiment is today lit- orally Hast man. organization. In the course of few years these sur vivors will all have gone to occupy the How, green tent whose curtain never outward turns" But their memories, like the memories of those who have preceded them to the king dom of rest, will ever be kept bright. And their sons and their sons sons will ever be ready, as were their for bears, to answer their country's call. Hail the Fighting Thirteenth and its few but honored survivors.

Brown University News Bulletin

A new department for Religious Education, intended especially to train foreign missionaries and Sunday school workers, Is to be opened at Brown University next September, An effort will also be made through the department 10 give more distinctive religious tone to student and faculty life, and to bring out the religious value of such subjects as Social and Pc. litica Science, Philosophy, History and Economies. Courses in these subjects are announced as part of the curriculum of the new department.
 The requirement of daily chapel at. tendance will hereafter be strictly en- forced. The requirement. has been waived hitherto in case of Catholic and Jewish students, of whom there are many st Brown. The result has not been satisfactory, however, and as the service, though usually conducted by Baptist or other Protestant clergy man, Is undenominatienal, the attend ance of all students will hereafter be required. The new policy will apply to the Woman's College as well as 10 the men.
