Special Election was-for Thomas Slidell, Loco,
1926, Christian Roselius, Whig l,52S; nominal
majority for SIdell 395. 1t was obtained, how
ever, by the grossest Naturalization frauds. AZ,
account was kept in part of the Wards of the
votes cast on Judge Elliots illegal certificates OF
Naturalization, and there were found four han
dred and fifty for shdell and nine for Rosellus.

IN that city, although the ballots Of one Ward
were destroyed in row, because the Judges would
not admit the foul votes. The election is to be
vigorously contested.

from his suffeeings by death-1s nothing to be
