NEW HAMPSHIRE, | TE BuaNed sTEAMERS AT CINCINNATI Progress of the Political Campaign in the Granite State, The Figures of the Republican Canvass About the Same as Last Year. The Election Likely To Be De- cided by the Legislature. Alleged Democratic Frauds and a Prompt Denial. The Complicated Contest for the United States Senatorship. MAncugstsr, N. H., March 7, 1872, ‘The nearer the election approaches the more un- certain and unsatisfactory are the probabilities of the result, The republicans have completed their canvass of the State, but they refuse to give the figures for publication, and this the democrats look upon as an admission of weakness, A member of the republican committee, who has had access to the concealed figures, tells me that it does not differ materially from last year’s canvass, and also assures me that his party has abandoned the idea of an election by the people and that the question will go before the Legislature the same as it did in 1871, This, I may add, is an opinion prevailing among some of the democrats, although there are a few of the leaders who insist that Mr. Weston and the entire democratic ticket will be perpetuated in power by the popular vote. ALLEGED DEMOCRATIC FRAUDS, Within a day or two there has been a new sensa- tion in both parties in consequence of the discovery Of past, present or prospective frauda on the part of the democracy. The repub‘icans charged that a stupendous outrage has been devised and is being carried into effect by the Demo cratic State Committee through democratic select- men. Tho story 1s that John G. Sinclair, chairman of the committee, nas actually instructed democratic selectmen to exciude the names of as many repulican voters as possible trom the check Usts and insert thereon the names of democrats not entitied to the right of suffrage, and assured them that if prosecuted for their wicked and fraudu- lent conduct the Democratic State Committee wilt defend them in tue Courts and indemnify them ainst all loss aud expense. it 1s further ieged that the thing has been carried so far that an exact calculation has been made and, selectmen have been instructed precisely what number of re- Publican voters must be excluded from the right of suffrage in each town in order to secure the triumph of the democracy throughout the State. One specified charge is in Ward five, in Nashua, where the republicans claim 125 fraudulent names have been added to the check list. MR. SINCLAIR DENIES THE SOFT IMPEACHMENT, Mr. Sinclair poitively dentes the caarges, and Offers $1,000 to each and everybody who wilt prove them to be true. The charges and the denial come at a very convenient time for edect one way or the other upon the election, but rather late to be proved or uisproved unui! after the warm political convest 1s settied by the ballot. The charges und denials are much commented upon by both parties and there are wide differences of opinton coacern- ing the truth of the atlegations. NATURALIZATION PROGRESSING LIVELY. New voters are being manufactured very lively. the majority of them, of course, being Irishmen and democrats, Over a hundred have been made in this city alone, and in the smal! town of Franklin some twenty-five natives of the Emerald Isle took ouc their papers tits forenoon. Provably the democrats will Nave an increase of irom two nundred ana filty to three — hunared votes from naturalization throughout the State, while the republicans will have soarcely one-flitu this number. They might possibly have gained a few Germans in Manchester but for the French arms question which Mr. Sumuer has_ precipitated against the administration. The only naturalized voters whom the republicans can reckon upon with acertainty are the French Canadians, snd those are a feeble minority in the foreign population. THE UNITED STATES SENATORSHIP QUESTION becomes more and more prominent, The repubil- cans have sought to keep i smothered entirely; put alin vain. Rollips proclaims that ne wants to e elected, ang Senator Patterson is evidently unwilling to field graceiully. ‘The struggi¢ to de. rive thé Senator of a re-election,” & prémineht over republican teils mMé, "is likely to distract the party very much. I know that it will do so in my glty, and see will refrain from voting unless Lt 18 clearly understood that he ts to be returned.”” The man who utters this 18 an influential and represen - tative repubiican, and he beiteves that unless Rol- lins openly withdraws before next Tuesday enough republicans Will refrain from voting to admit of an easy democratic Victory. Politics at the pital—The Order of the Day—Speculation as to the Result of the Elections—Meaey aud the Legisiaiire Abkoy !—Mrs. Livermore “Whippjag In” on Behalf of the Woman Suffragists of the State. Concorp, N, H., March 7, 1872, Politics here at the capital are getting very warm, and the usual business of the city is likely to suffer until the campaign ts over. Nothing else but poli- tics is talked of, aud scarcely anything else thought of, The impression 1s becoming almost universal at this point that the popular election will fail to elect a Governor, and that after all the contest will be in the Legislature; and with this idea both par- ues are indusiriously engaged in arranging for the control of that body. The fact that money is to be and Is being freely used 1s no longer concealed. The republicans are, without doubt, the most liberally Bap piled, for heavy assessments have been ievied In Wastungton and i the Boston, and probably the New York, Uustom House. ‘The democrats have only received ald from Bos- ton out of their own State, but they claim that they ave a larger treasury than in any former campaign. The neutrals, or that class of men who sell ther votes, is not large in New Hampshire, and there- fore vhey will probably demand a higu igure when approached, Mrs, Mary A. Livermore, the well known woman suffrage advocate, addressed a large republican meeting here to-night, and a few doors below where she held forth there was an enthusiastic demo- cratic rally, which was addressed by Mr. Kimpall, the democratic candidate for Governor in Maine, It is understood that Mrs. Livermore labors for the republicans with the distinct understanding that if successful they will pass an act granting suifrage vo the women of New Hampshire. The Republican State Committee held a secret Meeting to-ntgnt, but nothing was done beyond further completing and perfecting of artangements for having the doubtful localities attended to oe- tween now and Tuesday. ANDREW J. GARVEY. The Probability of His Arrest. Tne sudden reappearance of Andrew ¥. Garvey not only created great excitement, but raised the question in the minds of many anxious inqutrers as to Whether any steps would be taken for his arrest. Sherif Brennan was questioned in rela+ tion to the matter, and made the following state- ment:— ‘The order of arrest against Mr. Garvey, which was entrusted to me for service, has long since ex- pired by limitation. Uniess that order is reissued, or a new order of substantially the same character is issued to me_ for service, nothing can be done in the matter at pre sent, so far as the civil proceedings are concerned. As to the criminal proceedings, the matter remains enurely in the hands of District Attorney Garvin; but [do not believe that anything will be done either in relation to the issuance of an order of arrest or of @ bench Warrant on the criminal roceedings, considering that Mr. Garvey is now Bemng used, and, apparently, for a consideration, as @ witness in the proceedings agatnst Mayor Hall. Mr, Judson Jarvis, the Order of Atrest Clerk in the Sheriff's office, stated substantially the same facts, adding that ap to the time when he was spoken to, which was late last evening, no relasu- ance of the original order of arrest had been made nor had any new order been issued, nor did he be- Heve there would be for the present. A FATAL GAME OF OARDS.

Value of the Various Steamers—Explosion of Gunpowder on Board the Kate Robinsoa— Two Men Missing. CINCINNATI, March 7, 1872. The people on board the steamboat St. Charles last night had barely time to escape from the flames by jumping overboard. Captain Russell, the colored chambermaid and steward escaped with singed hatr. A large amount of cotton and ocher freight on the wharf caught fire and burned flerceiy for a time, but the flames were finally extinguished by the fremen, The steamer Robert Burns, loaded for Memphis, which was lying at the wharf, dropped down to the foot of Main street and escaped injury. A keg of gunpowder, in the magazine of the steamer Kate Robinson, exploded, producing a shock like an earthquake, A lantern in the hands of a watchman Was broken by the shock. The steamer Abeona was sold yesterday for $8,000, to be delivered as soon as the cargo could be discharged. ‘The cargo 1s estimated to have been Worth $75,000. It was insured in Cincinnati and elsewhere, The Kate Robinson was to sail for the Tennessee River to-day.

THE FOUR PER CENT BILL PASSED. RICHMOND, Va., March 7, 1972, ‘The great question which has occupied the atten- tion of the Logisiature during tne entire session, to the exclusion of almost everything else of interest, ‘Was a8 good as settled to-day. This was emected by means of a compromise, or bargain, in the Sen- ate, The Governor had vetoed every measure so far passed impairing the Funding law. The last measure he vetoed was one prohibiting the collectors from receiving the coupons of the consoli- Gated bonds in payment of taxes, Hitherto a two- thirds vote could not be obtained in the Senate to pass any of these measures over his veto. Last evening, however, the majority effected a bargain ‘with @ sufficient number of the Senators who had hitherto stood by the Governor, by which it was agreed that if they would vote to override the veto of this “coupon bill” the majority party would at once bring forward a bill and have it passed to pay four per cent per annum on the debt funded and un- funded, To-day this bargain was carried into effect. The Four Per Cent Interest bill was introduced in the Hoaee, hurried through and sent to the Senate and passed. THE BILL DISHONORING Ei COUPONS WAS THEN PASSED over the veto of the Governor, and became a law.
