Civil and Police Justices Elected, The Common Council for 1870 and 1871. ‘Tho charter election for 1800 terminated with the close of the polis at tweaty-nine minutes before five o'clock yestorday evening, As previously .and re- peatedly announced by the Hexap the contest, such agit was, lay not between the candidates of opposing party organizations, but was almost en- tirely condued m districta contested where the regular Tainmauy nominees were opposed by adhe- rents of the same party, but who, deeming that their claims were unjustifiably overlooked, were determined to measure: thelr strength with the “regulars.” as when “Greek meets Greek then comes the tug of war,” so with more than even party zeal was the fight waged between the Tival contestants of the game organization. The result in these desultory confiicts was doubtful throughout the day. The seceders fought mantuily, | aud brought up their supports and reserves with such good judgment and in such force thatit was only after the close of the polls and when the votes were Canvassed it was possible to declare WO wus the victor or who the vanquished, THE MAYORALTY—A RUSE DE GUERRE, Tt was not supposed that tho election of a Mayor was one of the duties tmposed on tho electors at this time, {t being understood and universally accepted that the present Chief Magistrate was elected at the last charter election, 1833, for the usual full term of the office—two years. A quipble was, how- ever, raised thas Mayor Hall was then elected for the unexpired term only, of Governor Hoffman's term causcd by his elevation to Chiet Executive of the State, This question was set at rest by the opinion of & high municipal legal practitioner, who on the point being submitted to him, emphatically declared Jor the constitutionality of the election for the full Mayoral term of two yearn. ‘This opinion was dis- sented from by some of tho republican leaders, and under (he impression that Mayor Hall would abide by the decision thus given, and by the votes of the citizens as recorded on the election of Mayor in 1868 prepared @ ruse by which they hoped to get one of the party balloted for and elected, there being, a3 they figured it out, no oppo- nentin the field, The Mayor's tacitcs—a seemi. masterly macuvity—was what deceived them an led them to showing their hands at the last moment. At tho opening of the polls yesterday morning the Parties to the political ruse were somewhat startied @t seeing bailots at all the polling places ‘ior Mayor, A. Oakey Hall.” ‘This was a most uuex- pected discovery and proved fatal to the scheme 80 quietly planned. Of course the Mayor's ballots were in great demand throughout the day, with a commensurate supply, and for the second time Mayor Hail bas been elected to fill the one regular term of the oftico from January, 1869, w January, It 1s only proper here to state that the voting for Mayor Hail was done against bis kuowledge, and would have been against his wishes had he becn consulted on the matter, He relied upon the opin. ton of Murray Hoffman, an eminent municipal jurist and arepublican, to the effect that there was no election for vacancy, only for a full term, and that he heid until January, 1571, But some of the Tain- many teaders Originated the self-defence baliaiing because they understood that Mr. Greeley for the re- publicans and Waterbury for the democratic Union. party, were likely, in a few districts, to advise a vote secretly for & mayor, so as to raise @ legal ques- tion and possibly oust tae Tammany mayor, in bis own’ polling place Mr, Hali, when voting publicly, stated that the fact of ranning him was repugnant to lus Views of the law aad the policy, THE CIVIL AND POLICE JUSTICES. Tho Tammany nominees were all, wit one excep tion, elected. There was a warm contest for Civil Justice in the Eighth district, between John Hardy, the Tammany nominee, and Thomas Ledwith, the present incumbent of the ofice, also a Tammany man but with republican prociiviiies so far as this election went. Mr. Ledwith, notwithstanding tae lufiuence of Tammany, beat bis opponent and will enter upon a new term of his ofice. “In the Aeveuth district, in which the Tammany nominee, Joseph McGuire, for Civil Justice, was opposed by the present incumbent, J. A. Stommler, yng by Tamioany, tae vote through a portion of the day Was quite close, Mr. McGutre coming out ahead. ni In the same district for Police Justice the candi- dates, Heary Murray, fammany nomineo; Jon 3, Masterson, ant-Tammany, and James E. Coulter, re- publican, had a warm me of it throughout’ the early part of the day, A strong fecitiug was mani- fested among the voters of the district—the adhe- rents of the several candidates fightung manfuliy to the last. Mr, Murray has carried off tae prize. In the Ninth (new district) une tight over the Po- lice justice was between John MoQuade (Tammany), and Captain William L. Wiley, (independent), and 8. ©.

This is a change oa the old form of electing this body, doing away with the old law of electing every aiternate year—the members having odd or even numerical des gnations, as the case Tight happen, Tne boards of Aidermen and Assistant Aldermen will pe elected in future every two years, The contest through- out the city yesterday was principally, indeed almost altogether confined te Tammany men—those who prejerred their ciaims for nomination and were thrown overboard contesting, in the few instances referred to, the resuit with tne lucky nominees of the party.

To guard against any possibility of disordor, effective reserve forces of police were stationed at the City Hall, Police headquarters, and at tire Seventeenth, Nine- teenth, Twentieth and Twenty-third precinct sta- tion houses, At the different polling places no un- usual excitement was observable, and in many wards the loungers who invariably gather around the doors of the polls wore an alr of listless in- difference, Perhaps the most noticeable feature of repeating was that commenced in the Ninth ward at an early hour in the day; but a number of police oMcers having been detailed to watch the proceedings at each polling place promptiy arrested the repeaters and effectually checked the fraud. In the Sixteenth ward it was claimed that repeating was briskly carried on by beth sides, but it appears to have been done, with one or two exceptions, in a manner that defied detection. Although many residents of the Eighteenth ward anticipated @ riot between the friends of the Tam- many nominee, John Nesbit, and tne anti-Tammany candidate, Fiorence Scannel, nothing of a disorderly nature transpired, except a few street brawls be- tween the admirers of the opposing candidates, neat the polling places, and tie arrests of perhaps a score of repeaters, In some tustances the latter suc- ceeded in depositing their baliots, but a majority of them were arrested before doing 60 and promptiy lodged in tne station house. The adherents of Fiorence Scannel were conspicuous throughout the ward during the day, @nd their wagers, freely omfered on the success of their candidates, were as freely taken up by hits opponents. Towards evening the voting became more rapid, Wil a preponderance im favor of Nese bit, which threw the Scaanel men almost in hys- terics, and immediately there was a rush made by bis friends from diverent quarters towards the vot ing boxes. At this thue occurred the climax, Barney Aaron leading tie army of repeaters, and ag nis familar countenance appeared at each polling place, both he and his followers were at once spot- ted, and alarge majority of them taken in charge by the detectives wno Were stationed at the boxes. one gta Compton House, chard McCree altas James A.

In the Nineteenth and ‘wenty-second wards the tof legal voting which was carried on far sed anyltuing of the Kiud heretofore heard of in those wards, The repeavors kept quiet uattl pearly midday, woen they commenced operations, and from that time until the closing of the polls at sundown the number of ilegai votes cast 13 said to have been large. 1t ls asserted that noc less than 100 repeaters operated in the wards last named, and out of which number the following were arrested and arraigned before Police Justice Counoily, and by that (uncuon- ary committed to answer in dcfautt of bail:—James Carroll, Arthur Connolly, Patrick MeGutre, James Burns, Louis Burns, William Brown, Alfred Smith, Patrick McMahon and Join Murray. In the Ninth and Tenth districts of the Eighth ward fraudulent voting was, it 1s sald, practiced without stint during tue day, many of tue repeaters beg appareatly mere boys. ‘They seemed to have had possession of the fleld, however, as iow arrests im those localities have been reported. At the Tenth election district of the Fifth ward Honora Ariiur appeared betore the Board of In- speciors and asked to have her vote entered for sudge Dowling. Mr, Benedict, chairman of the board, attended to the lady most graciously, though the time for her sex to voie has not yet arrived, TAREATENING TO SUOOT. John Graham, of No. 84 Suftoli street, made an aMfidavit before Justice Shandley against Daniel Coy ie, stating that he had been informed that Coyle had threatened to shoot him, He jurther charged that Coyie was guilty of a breach of democratic usage, Inasmuch as he nad been working ali day for Pat Connor, the independent candidate for Assistant Aiderman, against Larry Hill, the Tam- many nominee, The Repeaters. ‘These ubiquitous “birds of passage,” who at every election make their influence felt in every ward of the city, were not idle yesterday. in nearly every ward dozens of them floated about, awaiting their opportunity to put in @ vote for their favorite candi- dates, or at least those whose pocketbooks Were the longest. The Twentieth, Ninoteenth, Twenty-first Sixteenth, Eighteenth, Ninth and Bighth wards were, especially noted for the number of repeaters. Iu a@ few instances they were detected in the attempt and arrested, Not a few cases occurred in which they yoted upan the names of respectable citizens, wiose votes were refused when they applied for the privi- lege of exercising the franchise. Tho repeating was not confined to the Tammany nominees only, but ‘Was more or leas encouraged by all candidates for omtice, Probabiy the greater number of repeaters were working on the west side for Ledwith and Hardy especially. A gentleman conversant with the district estimates that the former was backed by 120 repeaters and the latter by 140, ‘The followiag are the namea Of the alleged illegal voters arrested in the respective wards, with thelr residences, as recorded on the station house biot- ters.
