Int:SF:Vt.:NTH r !VISION—THIRD WARD. . . in additiou to what use already been published in the Ile LIMIN in regard to this Dwirion, Mr. Mann said: 1 read the testimony of Albert U. Hamilton, to show the irregularities at this poll. "1 was an inepector. Q N'iho was the other Inspector? A. His name was Robert Tompson. Q. Is that the Thompson who had the diftl. cults with and was charged with shooting Caplo? A. I believe it was the same cue Q. Were you present when the polls opened and the election began? A. Yea, sir, I believe I wan. I had all the papers - they were left at my house the night before the election, about 11 o'clock. Q. Who took the tickets during the day? A. Mr. Thompson took tire ticket's; lkept the Crook . .Q Do you mean that yen kept it or tltat you undertook to keep it? A. I undertook to keep it-, it was impossible for me to keep it right; they voted too fast for nie; I had no cameo to keep it; I hadn't the chance to look for the names as the Man voted; sta soon as a man came to vote his vote was put in at the window, the Judge would say "It was all right," and the Inspector would take the vote and put it in the box before I had half a chance to see whether the name was on the book or not. Q. You bad re oppurtnnitY of seeing st all whether a man's name was on the book or not? A. No sir; there was uct much challenging done that day in our precinct; all the votes that were offered were taken; the inspector would take them and put them In the box; they would not wait. Q. During the day were there any per:, sons sworn as vouchers—that is, to prove the residence of other persons within the olvision? A. I only remember of ono case. Q. Were there at any time during the day naturalization papers and tax receipts produced by the voters? A. No sir; 1 didn't see any. Q. Do you know of any persons coming up to vote that you knew did not live in the 'precinct? A. Yes sir, I do. Q. Did you make any effort to stop them? A. One man I. did intend to atop, but his vote wan put in the box as soon as he came there; before I could stop him from voting his vote was put in the box- ; I knew that man; I knew that he didn't live in the precinct; knew where he did live. He gave the name of Thomas Smith. Q. Who swore the election office's? A. The Judge swore nit, and swore my clerk, I believe; I believe he a wore all on the Republican side. Q. Who swore the Judge? A. Indeed, I don't 1 now; they were all there in the morning when 1 got there; eldn't see any of the Democratic oflicera sworn; they all appeared to be sworn when I got got there; 1 wont to be morn in by tut Alderman, but I could not get sworn in; they had oaths when I ;got there; I suppose they were the oaths of the officers. Q Hadn't you aillthc papers, the oaths, thelblank forms? A. I had all the papers that cane rem eke City t omcuissioners; I went to the Alderman to be sworn in, but the Alderman was too busy, and told me he could not dolt, that the Judge had power to dolt." , Now here are the papers, but are they certificates by the officers? It seems that the Alderman signed the blank and then sent it to them to sign. There in hie name,when he was not at the polls! These officers aro not sworn •In the presence of the Alderman, so far as we know. Ail we kuow La that liamtl tor. went there with the papers and was not sworn; A lderman McClueky did not swear him, and there is no evidsure that he swore the judge. Hamil ton was the man inside. It is curious to - note what was done outside. Han thou was engaged in toiling after tbe names of the persons who voted._ and he succeeded in getting within 94 of the number. They got that far ahead of him. He never- canget up, and when he tried to stop them, it was useless, and ho was kept toiling on, turning over the feat es of that book, and there was a total disregard of the duties required by the act of As sembly, and without which there is no election. Your Honors will fmd that a large number of these voters are foreigners, but no oath wan required, no naturalization papers. how, on the outride we have Henry Davis. Ile testifies that he was a' the polls - when they opened, re mained there' nail afar one, came back .about sad re mained until 5 o'clock. Ha' had the window-book 'Q. When a man tame up to vote!; and gave his name: whet .did yon do ? A. 1 first tried to find his name to see if it veartathe - bank — Q -- Wbat - ttid - the - election - offitete d. whilst you were finding the name? A. The ticket was put in the box. with a few exceptions." Mr. Davis did not say to these officers "don't put that name in until swam Lain whether he has a tight to vote;' that was his duty and right, but he wont on examining his book and the election officers went on taking the votes;' Mr. Davis was asked why be didn't stop the °M eow, and his explanation was that he didn't like to chal lenge men who might have the right to vote; he did net what to commit that sin! William Roberts, who was the clerk, testifies that when a man came to vote the Judge called out 'all right:" the Inspector called out "aliright. he oould now go. ha.seat much obliged to him ;" during the day about six persons were sworn. "Q Did you know the two men that came up to vote who were personated before? A. I do cot recollect their names; the In spector said, 'persons have voted under your names before.' Q. Ralston was one, wasn't he? A. Yee sir, I think he was." Ralston oval challenged. Theiepcople were so anxious find they took the votes with ouch rapidity that it was impoe. 'tibia to get the names, and when the men came up the judge said "all right, much obliged," in voting this vast fraud. hat is the way they got the ill votes ln,and that is celled an election; There is no contradiction of this; sad it is proven to have taken place in that dlvi ion bounding on the Bth Division of the Fourth Ward. There is also the testimony in connection with this of Philip Shultz. who stet dat the polls and saw Mat. Gibson vote as Georse fielloway; aud he did not live in the di vision. Mr. Shultz was there during the last hour, had a hook outside; they voted fast and the rush came so great that be had not a chance to find the name. You will look at the' last hour and Foe what 11811100 there are on the list of people who came up to vote. =MO= . . . I pans on to the No irth Dieielon of the Twenty-fifth Ward. Here to the book off red in evidence that wart taken from the box in open Court. You willperceive that it is policy of the low that an inspection of that book will be evidence or the ru - ea of the people who voted. It Ls intended to f crutch evidence of residence, and when the mutest none and residt n, e is not en this hook, it is in. tended to furnish th , name of the person who swore 'that he lived there. If this book wee properly kept we could by an inspection of it eicertain the frauds and enable us to take measures to prevent thene"Roundere"-the people who go r around: our polls to vote-and we could - break up the practice. We could bring up the voucher who assisted these people to vote, and upon the evidence of the election officers that these were Or teen whe voted and thou were the men who swore to their residences and ant wend all the requirements of the law, the periury could he as ertained the parties could be convicted. But mire we have no ouch cheek. We have nothing to show who these men were who go from pull to led] and vote, and iteeems to me that Judge Ludlow took a very fair end re neer view Dealt three people were al lowed to vote without the evidence required by the law, it would I e eufficient to throw tire poll out. Because a name is not here is not conclusive vidi nee that there was no voucher taken, but when we go further and prove that the fact is that no voucher was inks it themit is conducive that there was a fraud,mid thereby 1160 of these votes canttlie prima faciecit thecae,- hi tha-.-all are f alee - uutil - the - o thee Side show the contrary.

Mr. Simpson rays has made efforts to find the persona whose names are upon that list "Q Ware 3en prevented? A. The majority of them would not oi.c us any satiefacticen at all; toll us to go elsewhere if we wanted to get satisfaction; shut the door and kept us out and the distillere got after us." Herein a Division In 11 Ilia it in impossible to.get any.information, but we find that they allowed 104 persona to vote without taking the proof cf residence, • and they allowed more than EC foreigners to vote without requiring n paper, ye hen it is the duty of the officers to make every man who is not limn in the country/.produce his naturalization pepere, which are the only evidence of his right to vote. The witneee says that tun majority of these people are that very few were from Germany. There are 21 persons ea he voted whores names are not upon the list; they rushed straight along without any examination.

Mr. Mann mead horn the House Journal of the Legielite ture 01 1859. In the care of Matthews vs. • Meehan, the re) ort of the Committee on Contented Elections, and the rerolu tint attached, wherein the t %examinee threw out the entire vote of the Eighth Division of the Fourth Ward for frauds similar to those proved in tide case. SECOND DAY. The case was resumed on Saturday morning, Mr. Mann co/aiming his element He said: When the hour of three arrived yeaterday, I had die cursed the evidence in the Eightli,Seventle and Sixth Divi• stone ot the Fourth Ward ;the Seventh Division of the Third Ward, and the Fourth Division of the Twenty-third Ward. 'I be striking out of these Divisions, because the lection war void, would give the certificate of election to two of 'the contestants, and would come very close, but world not Entirely overcome, the majority returned for Mr. Battier. But there In testimony in regard to two Divi -1.1(415 1. islets 'night or might not affect this particular re. nun. I rile; to the Sixth Division of the Seventeenth Ward and a Division in the Twenty•third Wald. There ie testimony in regard to tee Twenty-fifth 'Ward, which has 'teen alluded to, but we thought we had offered testi mony sufficient for the principle we have advanced; and, 01 erefore, the evidence may no considered in an untie. lobed state. A number of perfume testify to votes of non residents in the Fifth Ward, but we do not propose to dis cuss them. THR SIXTH DIVISION 01' TIfE HAVEN - MP-NTH WARD. The next I take up is the Sixth Division of the Seven teenth Vs d, in which I frankly confess the testimony is of the weakest character of any we have presented. '1 he list of taxables used by the officers is in ovidence,end upon the Bret glance it would appear as if this officers bad not made any Wks at nth It appears to be entirely barren of any official marks, but upon minute inspection there are tricks. Instead of marking the letter Yiu front oetheynanie they have put a crone, which you see with a meat deal of difficulty. However,) presume they inten ded these marks as a compliance with the law. It is scarcely distinguishable. We have ' counted thee° croeses-the rounsel and examiner-and the number of the•se marks is Seb t which indicates that 200. of there femora had voted. There are Still names on the list of Vetere, at d there aro 200 voters marked, and there 'are 125 erbovoted who are not on the list. 'We have proof that in that' division the election was conducted in a maunereimilar to the others. James eloyd was exam ined. lie Was an inspector. Ho testified that ho took the book presented by the City Commissioner "Q. The first man that came up to vote was homes Mamie; did Sou search for his name on the book? A.

How did you begin this elec. tion? A. When they first began to vote. they didn't give sue tires to find one name before the vote was in the box, and another one was up." You will see by are erence to the hook that be did not merit Maple's names The name to not ticked. That is tl e Wftv sissy began the election. "Q.

Witness said that naturalization pa ;WS were demanded in five or six instances. That is the teetiniony in regaid to that division. Now I desire to show you the manner in whim: these officers kept the pae Pere-the accuracy of these people. I find the numbers running from 1, 88.99,101, 103 and so on. ')hat is a sam ple of their accuracy. (Paper shown.l Mr. Canidav-"11 aye you the duplicgte of that?" Mr. fttann--""No." Mr. (lasaiday-"You selected the beet of course."

Mr. Mann-I know there is a time for these gentlemen to dtecurs this queetion, as there Ives a time for them to ffer testimony. if they had any, of another pat er. I don't pretend that that raper would obviate the election, but it is a Ramie of the work done by the clerks. Th tt ie the s Ind of clerks they select. The kind of Judge they select WWI shown in Court; he could not read or write, and tele n 1 blinded him the list he said: ' Mr. Mann, you know I cunt read ;" and when I read over the names he did rot recognize any of them.

Q. Wasn't it that? (handing wit tiest a Republican election ticket ) A. Not much. Q. You ale confident, then, that tho tickets you gave out had the sonic names on as that—(first one exhibited)—Joseph Me. WY. Leech. &c.? A. Yea, sir, just the name as that. Q. You are confident of that? tonildont Mr. "Creed-examined—Q. Arc you a single or a married inane' A I am a married man. Q. Where is your faintly? A. At White ; my wife is there; I have no f amity. Q. Hid you say that all these men that Mr. Mann has asked you a bout,lived in the neighborhood of the arsenal? A. Yes, Mr, they all hive in the neighborhood now ; all that he luta asked me about live in White Hall and bridenbiirg, right around the Arsenal, within a few squares." "By the examiner—You don't mean to Fay that the de eerter lives around there ? A. No, air, only those that were discharged." "By Mr. Gni hart—How long , have you been married? A. About two and a half years.' "Q. liar your w ife liven there ever since? A. Yes; sho lives at White Ball." . . . "Mr. CaPPlday—W bite Halite within the division?" Mr. Mann—l think It is; but if Mr. Getty has a wife, and she comes there for his or her convenience. he ac. quires no residence. Ile is inside the Arsenal, and can't come out without a pars, and these soldiers are not reel dents of White Hall and no residents of that Ward. There are NOMO things so very plain that wo would think that it would not be necessary to make any argu ment. )(these men doing garrison duty here. are resi dents within that Division, then the Government of the United States can, at any time, send a thousand men to do garrison duty, and the men would secure the entire control of the Ward. Councilmen and all local officers, would be creatures of these men. The streets would be paved, and every regulation of a municipal character would be under the control of the soldiers thus doing gar rison duty. To state that proposition is to argue it.. Yet it will be argued by the other side that because these men wear the uniform of the United States, they have the right to vote. Time makes wondrous changes. A few 1 years ego it would have been concluded otherwise. Now, rs sidence, under the Constitution, is not where a Milo abides for a little while, awaiting the orders of a superior officer. There soldiers are liable to he ordered away at any moment. An order from Washington could send a man anywhere, to the plains, or anywhere Lunt the re quirements of the service demand. Can a man be said to have a residence and have con. trol of himself who is thus , placed ? Must Most surely not. Three men were not residents in that ward. If they had a right to vote, they were bound to go to the place where they had acquired residence before they entered the military service of the United States. It has been decided that when a man enters the service of the t toned States he dote not lose the residence ho had at the time. Ile may go hack to the place the next day and vote. It is PO ildd n thr case of the clerks at Wash. ington in the service of the United States, who go back to their homes on election day and vote. When James Buchanan was Preoident of the United States—enlisted for four years—he did net cease to be aresident of Penn aylvania, and he could have voted in Wheatland. And this is tire cites with the lowest as well as the highest In the service of the United States. The man who goes into the service as ordinance sergeant, as well as the private soldterne more loses his residence than thePreeicientof the Unitedetates If he is a legal voter he can go back and vote but the Idea that these men can vote in flocks is contrary to our laws and the constitution welch requires to reside at least ten days within the election precinct. Judge Woodward, in Chase vs. Miller, ruled this 'mint when he said, don't say tied the State cannot constitute a gar risen sr ithin the United States, but it has not been done and therefore these men at Dorton lied no right to vote." And these votes were thrown out. They had no right to vote at the garrison at Brideaburg in time of peace, for no residence as as acquired. and the opinion delivered Chase vs. Miller determines that point They must have a "residence" and the detiinition of what that means is given, and the Judge uses the word "domicile," where a man has all MR interest around him; the tree meet be fixed; it ninst not boa moving tree; not u tree that is planted here tare spring and next spring taken up and transplanted. e There must :be fixedness, where it can grow and flourish. So with the man. The man must be planted and fixed, and the intention must. be to Make that his residence, his abiding place, where alllris-pennunentintersstoltrelifeelso reread him — Wirral -- property had these men in Bridesbure The very food they get does not belong to them; the clothing on their backs belongs to the United States. And ii they had any civil rights at all they existed else Where than in Brideahurg. These men were net assessed. Tho assessors bad no right and could not get in the Arsenal. There is a wail around it and a line of sentinels to guard it. If the assessor snortld present himself at the gate a musket would be dropped before him and he would be challenged and prevented from entering. It is territory belonging to the United States, carved out expressly for them. It is not taxed by the State, and the assessor does include the property In his assesament. But these men marched cut to vote, although not residents sad while soldiers doing garrison duty. 'the superior officer says. ''Go, and he Rooth." They cannot go outside without orders, and in all their movements they arc sub. _lea to the will of others. 'Voters in this State are to be white freemen.. Ate these men freemen, and are they to be allowed to vote when they cannot go out and mingle with the people of the vicinity, ascer tain their wants and opinionsand feelings, except at the beck and call of ga superier'efficer? They obtained passes ou this day to go out and vote, and this is ad they do to show that they are citizens of that Ward, If this leto be allowed, then any election in Pennsylvania or Philadelphia can be controlled by a body of soldiers; soy fi eee can be called from the Plains or elsewhere, be stationed in the Navy Yard. and when they hat's accomplished the work assigned them be ordered back to the Plains. I merely Minded to tide to prove how absurd it in to hold throe ter II to be eibzene,entitled to vote in We Division-- to pretend that the marines, at the Navy Yard are allowed to' einnd yet these twenty or thitiy men, with Ceeporal (;et y at the heed.r e arch out front the Fraukferd Arsenal. trod by their votes :,lone almost carry this preeinct They deposit their votes, :aid they march back again.

That is the first ornldelon, the first den Haien of duty--that they opened the election mid did not look at the book and see it tho voter was on the Ilk.

They required no proof of citizenehlo—ad to the names of those who wet e not on the Sit, '1 hey required no proof of the payment of taxes by those whose natures - were not on the list. They did not require the proof of a qualified voter in such ea es of ibe residence of the voter who was voting, although not on the list. They did not swear such vouchers that they resided in said election division within ten dap!, or that they removed therein in purduanco of their lawful calling, and not for the purpose of voting therein, an a ath and proof that can be made by no ono but the op; plicant who presenta himself to vote.

Next election, it this is permitted, you will have it in nine or ton; for if the Mil. core can do this, whatis to bo done to protect the purity of the ballot box? Are citizens to go around to those divisions to neoure an honest election and have tho dis tillers after them? Aro they to go and see how far the law is complied with by men who have taken an oath to comply with it? Arc those citizens to go among people where the laws of the United States cannot be executed until a file of marines is marched among them? heeo citizens would have the sumo chance as those who went to butt for stills; they would e chased and hunted norties the lota, and have the doors slammed in their face. The nationality of these men is proven-wild wen in sonny respects -voting in swarms. You will exatnino this testimony; you will not soy that because we have not gone around and found whether theme people lived there therefore Ulla is a valid election. This is the action of citizens, and the only case I know of where it is such a case, and they will not be told that they must incur an expense incident to such an investiga Non, tottnded with damage and productive of no satin• factory results. It has never been decided that such con• duct as we complain of does not vitiate an election. It line been deckled that a failure to mark the letter "V" does not vitiate it, but tot that' the failure to look at the book is not climinal. It has not boon decided that a failure to look at the book and take proof of the residence of the voters does not vitiate the elec tion. In Thompson vs. Ewing the leaning was to throw out the divisions if the proof had been sufficient to estab lish the allegation that the oflicors bad thus neglected their duties. Judge Ludlow did throw them out upon the evidence that was submitted, although it did not be. gin to show it to the same extent as in this case. lithe Court decide now that this conduct does not vi tiate the election. this disregard of tic law will increase until our elections will become ono widespread mass of corruption.
