Cheating the Soldiers.
We call especial attention to the artcle on
the outside to-day, making the startling dis
closure of defrauding the soldiers of their
right to vote, in the State of New York. We
are gratified that the fraud has been discov
ered in time, and that the perpetrators are to
have the benefit of a speedy trial by the mili
tary authorities. Hanging is too good for
these vile wretches, and we have no doubt
that full justice will be meted out to them.
This fraud was foreshadowed by the con
fession of the Private Secretary of Governor
Seymour, who, whilst in company with the
Governor, in this city, got beastly drunk, and in
that condition was called on for a speech. He
appeared on the balcony of the Buehler House,
where, after referring tojthe prospects of Mc-
Clellan, he boastfully remarked that the New
York soldiers were "all fixed :" that he, himself,
had been engaged for a month past, and that
they Would vote for McClellan and Seymour.
At this juncture he was violently taken from
the balcony, and his further disclosures thus
cut short.
The fraud which was purposed to pollute
the ballot-box in New York, will, no doubt,
be attempted in Pennsylvania. Hence, one
of the most important duties of all loyal men
at the polls will be, to watch the men who
are in alliance with the creatures of Governor
Seymour. There should be an individual at
every election poll, especially delegated to
watch every proxy vote and see that no fraud
in this particular is successful. Our political
enemies have a desperate game to play, and
they are determined to go about it with all
the fraud of which they are capable.
—Since the above was written and in types
our dispatches bring still further accounts of
developments in connection with these frauds,
toith a confession of guilt on the part of one sf the
agents appointed by Gov. Seymour. Tins runs
THE PEPUD ON THE DEMOCRATIC LEADERS! The
country and the world can thus see to what
extent these bold bad men intended to carry
their crimes. But at the moment when they
deemed themselves successful, exposure has
overtaken and overwhelmed them with dis
grace. We direct the attention of the reader
to the dispatches on this subject, on the first
and second pages of to-day's paper.
McClellan's Election Involves the Possi
bility of British Intervention in the
Affairs of the United States.
It Will be remembered by every observer of
the events attending the slaveholders' rebel
lion, that an interview at one time took place
in the city of New York, between certain lead
ing Democratic politicians and Lord Lyons,
the British minister at WashingtA. The ob
ject of that interview was to impress Lord
Lyons with the necessity of foreign interven
tion to settle the troubles in the American
States, and if possible to secure his sympathy
in inducing his Government to take the lead in
that mediation.. Every Democratic politician who
was present at that interviewmiththe British:min°
teen is now an active and boisterms advocate of
the election of George B. Not to the Presi
ciency•
These facts suggest the following questions:
Are the McClellan-Pendleton leaders in
favor, of foreign intervention ? Lord Lyons
wrote, in February, 1862, officially to his Gov
ernment, that "several of the democratic lead
ers" assured him privately, in secret inter
views, that "if their own party was in power
.they would accept an offer of mediation."
These are the words of the British niinister's
official report.
What will be the inference of foreign govern_
ments if McClellan and Pendleton are elected?
That they may safely interfere in our affairs,
as the French Emperor has intervened in
Mexico; and that they will have the counte
nance, openly or secretly, of the McClellan-
Pendleton leaders, just as Napoleon had the
countenance of Almonte and the treacherous
reactionary politicians of Mexico in his pirati
cal schemes.
Does the Chicago platform say anything
against foreign intervention? No.
Does it say anything against "the right of
secession ?" No.
Are the Chicago and McClellan-Pendleton
leaders committed against the principle of se
cession? No. Many of the chief and most
influential persons amongst them, - as Vallan
digham and Wood and Pendleton, have assert
ed this right, and many others have justified
the rebels.
—These facts have a meaning which
no hoifest man can resist. They address
themselves particularly to that large class of
citizens who fled the British rule to escape
its tyranny and exaction. How can the Irish
man .who left his home in the Green
Emerald Isle, that he might throw ot
the yoke of English arrogance, and walk the
earth a freeman, votel for a Presidential
candidate, whose first act, should he suc
ceed, would be to invite the British Govern
ment to intervene in the domestic affairs of
the American government? We leave this
question for Irishmen to settle. Let such as
these remember that if ever the British Gov
ernment get an opening wedge of interference
with the affairs of the American people, its
first object would be to arrest every'
bilihman who contemptuously cast off his-
allegiance to the English "Thitine' in petti
coats, to attach himself to a Government of
free menl All this is worth considering by
those whom it most interests, the Irishmen of
America!

THE CHARGE AND SPECIFICATION PREFERRED
AGAINST EDMUND DONAHOE, JD., AND 111.
FBERY.
Charge—Conduct prejudicial to the welfare
of the service, by falsely personating and
representing officers and soldiers in the ser
vice of the United States, and in such as
sumed capacity falsely and fraudulently sign
ing and forging names as and for the names
of officers and soldiers in such service.
Specification—ln this, that the said Edmund
Donahoe, Jr., and M. J. Ferry, being ostensi
bly authorized as the agents for the State of
New York, for the purpose of receiving the
votes of the soldiers of the United States, for
electors of the State of New York, at the gen
eral election to be held on the Bth day of No
vember, 1864, did falsely and fraudulently
personate officers or soldiers who have been or
now are, or who purport to b@, in the military
service of the United States; and did falsely
and fraudulently sign and' forge, and also
cause to be signed and forged to the blanks
issued under and pursuant to Chapter 253 of
the laws of the State of New York, passed
April 21, 1864, entitled "An act to enable,
qualified electors of the State absent there
from, and in the military'service of the United
States, in the army and navy thereof, to vote,"
names purporting to be the names of officers
and soldiers in the military service of the
United States, and qualified electors of the
State of New York, and absent therefrom;
said blanks being issued under the said law,
and intended to be used for the purpose of
transmitting the vote of the soldier signing
the same to his proper attorney, to be used at
the general election to be held in said State
on the eighth day of November, 1864; all this
being done by said Donahoe and Ferry, with
the intent and for the purpose of having such
blanks so signed used as and for the deed of

signed thereto, and in fraud of their rights at
such elections. All this at the cities of Bal
timore and Washington during the month of
October, 1864.

On the conlusion of the reading of the
above, Ferry plead guilty to a portion of the
charges, and said he had signed the names of
some.
In answer to a question by the Judge Ad
vocate, Foster, who stated that his pleading
to the charge should be either general or spe
cial, he said he desired to have counsel. He
was informed that he could send for any per
son he should choose as counsel, and imme
diately, sent for a lawyer of this city.
Donohue plead a general denial of the
whole affair, and wanted to be represented by
counsel from Albany or New - York. He said
he thought the matter belonged to the civil tri-.
bunals, instead of a military one. He requested
to know if Roverdy Johnson was to be had,
as he was confient he would defend him.—
General Doubleday and Judge Advocate Fos
ter said they had no objection to postpone the
case, as the prisoners had no counsel, in or
der to allow them to obtain It, and accord
ingly adjourned until Friday at ten o'clock.
It is stated that seven dry goods boxes of
votes for the Democratic National and State
nominees have been forwarded from here by
express. Several paokages of the alleged
forged tickets are in the hands of the Military
Commission, with letters, &c., involving par
ties in New York.
After the adjournment of the court Ferry
made the following full confession :
I do not recollect the time when the first
papers were forged, but it was in the presence
of 0. H. Wood, of Clinton county, New York; it
was done in my office, No. 85 Fayette street,
Baltimore; I am. and have been for the past
two years, the agent of the State of New York,
appointed by Governor Seymour, to look after
the sick and wounded soldiers of New York;
I first saw Wood on Wednesday of last week
at my office. He came and represented him
self as an agent of the antral Committee of his
county to look after its local ticket. He talked
about the way inwhich the votes could ha taken;
it was agreed that we should sign the names of
soldiers and officers and send them home to
have the local tickets filled in; I made out small
papers; I signed the names of soldiers on
quite a number of them; I cannot tell.what
names we signed; the papers are in the bun
dle now on the table; I did not sign the names
of officers, but Donahoe signed any quantity of
them; there was a large package of Ult.., papers
left with me, Which I destroyed; that pa. e

pers; there was a man named S. M. Brundy
in my office; he is now in New York; also, a
man named H. Newcomb; J never saw him
until he came there; he is a lawyer in Albany;
part of the forged papers were made in my
office, and part brought there; they were usu
ally brought in a bundle, tied up; I do not
know who brought them; I had no letters from
P. Cagger except what were found in my desk;
I never knew of any correspondence on this
subject with Gen. Farrell, the commissary of
subsistence, except the packet which you
have; the packages contained a lot of blank
envelopes and powers of attorney, with a let
ter from Gen. Farrell, marked "confidential,"
which contained a list of the names of resi
dents of Columbia county; I did not let any
one know that I destroyed the forged papers
left with me, but told my associates that I
sent them to different parts of the State to be
marked ; a young man came from Washing
I ton on Friday or Saturday last, saying if I had
any spare blanks to send them on to Washing
ton; I am not certain that he did or did not
say anything about there being twenty men
ever there who could attend to these matters;
I do not know how many forged papers were
sent off, but I heard them say that they sent
theni from Washington by the dry-goods box
full; I do not recollect hearing them talk de
spairingly, but they talked quite confidently
and jubilantly; I sent a package of forged pa
pers to Gen. Farrell, with the following let
ters :
BAI,TP..IOIIE, Oct. 22.—My DEAR. SIB: If
you are energetic you will be able to get the
within votes all arranged for the Bth of No
vember. I should have done more to them,
.but I have not time. They are all on the
square, the Blacks got theirs. Neither would
bear close scrutiny. Ed. Donahue said send
this on to you, and I have done it. Truly
yours, DEMOCRAT.
P. S.--They are all soldiers' company and
regiments all OK. The rest I have nothing
to say. If you have no use for them send
them back. M. J. FERRY,
No. 85 N. Fayette street, Baltimore, Md.
In behalf of Ferry, the Judge Advocate en
tered a plea of guilty, and asked for him the
mercy of the court.
Donahoe will be tried and his case will come
on to-morrow. The evidence now in the pos
session of the commission implicates a num
ber of prominent pawns, but the facts can
not at present be given to the public.
ALBANY, Oct 127.—The following dispatch,
addressed to the Executive Department here,
was received this afternoon:
BALTIMORE, Oct. 27.—Moses J. Ferry, State
Agent at Baltimore; Edward Donahoe, Jr., of
Albany; Peter Kirby, of Lewis county, and
Dr. Jones, of New York city, voting agents,
have been arrested by the provost marshal,
who also closed the New York State Agency.
STEPHEN MAXON, Surgeon-in-charge.
Gov. Seymour is in Buffalo, and the tele
gram has been forwarded to him.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27-10 o'clock P. M.--The
New York State agent in this city was. arrested
to-day, and his oice closed.
Important additional disclosures are ex
pected to-morrow. Some letters and docu
ments will be adduced of great importance.
It is understood that the fraud was discovered
by a Clinton county agent of the Union Com
mittee, who called upon Ferry to make certain
inquiries. Ferry mistook his political charac
ter, and discovered the matter to him. After
obtaining a full knowledge of the facts, the
agent oommuicated the matter to General
Wallace, when the parties were arrested.
WASEINGTOI.,', Oct. 27.—C01. Samuel North,
and two others, are among those of the New
York agency who were arrested in Washington
to-day. They were confined in the Old Capi
tol, charged with being implicated with the
Baltimore agents in sending fraudulent votes.

ST. Lotus, Oct. 27.—The following is re
ceived from reliable sources:
Our forces have been driving Price. rapidly
since Sunday. At the last accounts he was
twenty-five or thirty miles south-east of Fort
Scott—his army routed and dispersed. On
Tuesday we had several fights with him be
tween Mound City and Fort Scott, in all of
which he was badly whipped, losing fif
teen hundred prisoners and ten or twelve
pieces..of artillery. Major General Marma
duke and.lbrigadier General Cabell are among
the prisoners, with several colonels and other
officers. He was again attacked yesterday
morning, a short distance north of Fort Scott,
and driven pell-mell in a south-easterly di
rection, He burned two hundred wagons yes
terday, to prevent them being captured. No
thing is stated about the loss on either side,
but there seems to be fto doubt that Price's
army is completely demoralized and scattered.
The telegraph is working to Fort Scott, but
nothing has been received of to-day's opera
tions, except that our forces are still in vigor
ous. pursuit.
General Steele, with a heavy reinforcement,
is at Fort Smith, with the probable view of
contesting Price's entrance into A r k ansas .
The rebels were chased all Sunday night, and
constant fighting kept IP.

WASH:MI . ON, Oct. 27.
The court martial for the trial of parties in
Washington and Baltimore for supplying con
traband goods to rebels, have removed their
sittings to Baltimore. The case of Hamilton,
Easter* Co., which is the most important one,
is now. on trial. The evidence adduced on the
part of the Government is very strong against
this firm. Easter is estimated to be worth up
wards of two million dollars.
In the case of Johnson & Sutton the court
have rendered their verdict, and transmitted
it to the Secretary of War. It is understood
that they have found this firm guilty of all the
charges preferred.
One good result of these trials will be the
breaking up of this extensive and nefarious
traffic.
