This truth bas been dinned in your ears for months; yet some will doubtless turn up unregistered, and will blame the law or its administrators for the consequence of their own culpable heedlessness. The law is none too stringeut; if the Right of Suflrage has any value or meaning, it should be thoroughly guarded against frand. To allow a voto to be polled by oue who is not a legal yoter inru:wtl_v equivalent to denying the Right of Suffrage to one fairly entitled to exercise it. Let thorough inquiry be made, and let the very last legal voter be registered fo-day. Then let to-morrow be devoted to sorutinizing the rogisters and®purging them of the name of every oné not legally entitled to vote. Do let this work be dome thoroughly, and the Republican Unionists canwot be beaten. Bt let us have the very last legal voter duly registered to- night, The false charge made by The Horld that the police wore compelied to contribute to an election fund bas boen answered by the Commissioners. There i= not the least truth iu the slander, and The World is bound to retract. The meeting of the Loyal Voterans this evening, to ratify the Republican State ticket, will be an ex- traordinary occasion, and the valor and devotion of a long and terrivle war will onco again give their luster and strongth to the triumph of free principles.

The Supreme Court of Indiana has decided that the article in the Constitution prohibiting negroes from entering the State is null and void, and thus redesms Indinuna from a foul disgrace, Tho weit step will bo to strike the barbarism from tho Constitution, an aot to which the Logislaturc is bound br the decision of the Court that the article ia in conflict with the Con- stitution of the Unitel States. THE MARYLAND TROUBLES. Tho trouble in Baltimore is not of recent origin. It Legzan with the Rebellion, and dates as far back as the Spring of 1861, when the Rebels of Baltimore fired upon & Massachusetts regiment marching to the defense of Washington. A large number of the people of Maryland were Rebels, and Maryland regi- ments fought in the ranks of Leo and Johnston. Fortunately the geographical position of the State placod it, from the first, under the protection of the Government, and «the courage of its loyal people provenicd it from Veing dragged into secession. Af- ter the war, in self-protection and simple justice, the loyal men of Maryland amended the State Constitn- tion to prevent returned Rebels from voting, and by a strict registry law they bave thus far succeeded in saving the State from the rulo of ite worst enemies. Since Andrew Johnson adopted the poliey of placing tho whole Scuth under the rule of the Rebel leaders, the mwen who sympathized and aided the Rehel- lion in Marylaud bave made a bold effort to regain the power they had forfeited by treason, and Gav, Swann, olected asa Union man in 1864, has done his best to sustain it. Baltimore, the headquar- ters of ail the Rebels north of Richmond, was the point of attack. The laws of the State, strictly enferced by the Police Commissioners, enablod only Union men to vote, and at all the recent eleotions, including that of Gov. Swann, thousands of known Rebels wero dis- franchised. 8o long as the Police Commissioners re- mained in office it was certain that the laws would be honestly administered, and that the barriers erected by the loyal community for its protection would not be broken down or evaded by the men who sought to Join Maryland to the Confederacy. Thia did not snit Gov. Swann, whose change of politics compelled him to depend en Rebel votes for political advancement. He dotermined to remove the Commissioners and re- place them with mer less devotod in thoir Unionism; for this purpose the charges were preferred which have beon investigated before the Governor at An- napolis, and upon which he bas removed the Com- missioners. ‘We have carofully examined the evidence on the gide of the Governor, and compared it with that for the defense,and cannot see how any respectable lawyer could conscientiously say that the charges had been proved. The witnesses for the proseoution, of whom 66 wero summoned, testified that only Radical Judges of eleations were appointed in certain werds; that in some cases there were no boxes used to deposit re- Jected votes to preserve them for future adjudication; that Tegal votes were refused; that the police force was nsed to intimidate voters by violence; that Commis- sioner Wood had been secn drunk in the streots—in short, that the recent election was illegally and un- justly conducted. Every particle of this testimony— s0 far as the charges against the Commissioners are sustained by it—has been rebutted by the evidence for the defense. It is true, no doubt, that there were sbuses and irregularities at the polls, for these are inevitable in all large cities, but it has not been shown that in a single iostance the Commis- soners were responsible. They, on the contrary, sppear to have done all in their power to secure & full sud fair and legal vote, without respect to party interests; the good character of the Judges of Eleotions was fully proved, aud their ** Rad- icalism” seems to mean that they were Union men and ot Rebel sympathizers; the ballot boxes were proven to be those always in use, and used in the election of Governor Swann in 1864; in several cases the use of rejected boxes was proved when witnesses for the prosecution had sworn they saw none; the respecta- bility of the special police was established; the charge of drunkenness against Comimissioner Wood fell to the groand, and is not even cited in the Governor's de- cision; while in many cases the witnesses for tho pros- ecution were proven to be men of immoral character, of the prison, or candidates for ite honors. The credibility of the main points of the testimony in support. of the charges is destroyed by tho over- whelming evidence in bebalf of the accused, As suin- alroady of the good men of all parties against foroe 10 maat at the Station-Hous: at 6 o'clock a. m.

H. Camsacuais, Marshal, But all this evidence bad no effect upon the Goy- ernor. His manner of conducting the trial was ex- traordinary. After laying great stress upon the fact that the Commissioners refused to acknowledge his jurisdiction and appear before him, whon Comumis- sioner Hindos did appeor, he declined to examine bin or hear his statement! At tho outset of the trial he made the astonidhing announcement that he intended ~ to finish it by Wednesday, and that the moment ho was satisfied ho should make his decision, even. without waiting to hear the whole of the evidenge. This was a drum- head court-martial, and not a trial, Mr. Latrobe, counsel for the prosecution, insisted that the case should be closed without delay, as **Time presied, and if the Comniissioners were removed, as they hoped and believed they would be, there was much to be done. Mavy changes were to be made before nert Tuesday—the day of election.” He bad the audacity to urge this indecent haste in behall of “14,000 disenfranchised peopleof Baltimore,” though they were disenfranchised by the Legislature of Maryland for disloyalty. But Gov. Swann neoded no urging. From the first, it is apparent, he had madc vp his mind that the Commis- sioners should be removed, and no evidence in their favor could have changed him. His own words have made it plain that the trial over which he presided was a farce and a mockery—that these men were not summoned to Anuapolis to be tried, but to be con- demned. The changos had to be made before noxt Tuesday, and thoy bave been made. The mnew Com- missioners may be trusted to take care of the interests of the * fourteen thousand disenfranchised people of Baltimore,” next Tuesday, and the 14,000 friends of the Rebellion may be trustad to take care ot the Governor. New?Commissioners, new Judgos of Eloctions, a new police, will have control of the polls, and Baltimore under their rule will send twenty- oue members to the Legislature pledged to vote for Thomas Swann as United States Senator from Mary- Jand. This is the meaning of the removal of the Commissioners—to wrest the State from the Union mon who saved it from rebellion, and make the Leg- islaturo the tool of one man's political ambition. THE PROSPECT. An intelligont and capablo observer, who has ro- contly visited twosthirds of the Counties of our State, making personal inquiry a3 to the prospect, makes the following estimate of the majorities for Governor in the several Counties: MAJORITIES ¥OR PENTOX. Allegany. 3,600 . 1,000 Broome. .. Cattaraugus Cayuge Chantsuqu Chemung C Clinton Cortland 1,900 | Rensselaor Delaware. 1,200 | St, Lawrenc Dutohes 550 | Baratoga. Frie Bchonecta 836 Bchuyler.

B0 | Sullivan........ 200 | Ulster,. weee Putnan Waestehester ... 1,000 Total Majorities for Fenton Majorities for Hoflw: Fenton's majority ~We do not believe any 1 polled for Hoffman in this City; but, on the other hand, we consider the above majorities for Fenton in several counties rather bigh. We consider 65,000 about the aggregate majority that will be given in the Fenton counties. If Hoffman can get 50,000 in his Counties, we have but a narrow margin for a poll of 650,000 votes, We say to our friends thronghout the State, * You cannot he beaten by the adversary; but yom can beat yourselves, If you fight the battle as eagerly, resolutely, unflinchingly, as your brethren in MAINE, PENNSYLVANIA, Om10, INpraxa, lowa, NEDRASKA and WEsST ViraiNia have just dove, you will surely triumph! But two votes unpolled iii each school district would lose us the State, Count nothing safe till the last vote has been polled ! MANHOOD AGAINST THE MACHINES. All decent citizens have for years been complaining of ‘the corruptions and disgrace of the Tammany “Ring.” They are now offered, and for the first time, & clear and tefpting chance to *‘smash the ma- chines,” both of Tammany and Mozart togother. ave they the pluck, the faith, the resolate will ! Have they the manhood requisite for such a task’ ‘We believe they have; and believe, aleo, that the cul- minating fraud of the present coalition between Tam- many and Mozart Halls will prove the providential engina for the destruction of those cormpt and oo rupting agencies of local power. It is & combination in which the peoplo have heen utterly ignored—even the men, the rank and file, of the two huckstering in- stitutions. It is s ticket whichvonly four mep, it is well known, had suy part in nomiuating; and now the foeling even of the Tammany and Moaart people is— + Let the four nominators elect it—if they can'” 'We believe it will be found befors sundown next Tuesday that they caxnor.

The ticket of the combined anti-Ring men, indorsed by the Union-Re- publican party, is personally as unexeeptionable and politically as strong as has ever been presented. James M. Smith, the candidate for Surrogate, has served with distinguished impartiality, ebility and credit as Recorder, and has an enormous clientago among the people of this City, wholly irrespective of party lines. John Sodgwick is one of our best known and most widely respected lawyers, while Gen. Charles G. Halpine has endeared himself to the loyal of all olasses by his services through the war, sad the pathos, frolic and geod-humor of his songs and other writings under his nom de plome of ** Private Miles O'Reilly.” . ’ Rally on this tioket, citizens of New.York ' snd the « Ring” whioh haa cursed us with its rule will become » thing of $he past. the ' Ring” in November, snd the contest for y offises in December will be won.

If his power is to bo thus used, we Mr. Justice Barnard’s decision yesterday, against | caunot regret that is restrioted. D the thieving and infamous gas contract, was to have been expected: but it is prompt and opportune, and quite characteristic of a Judge who has inso many oot e dlon o omst A * ENTERPRISE. | The Times pays us the compliment of not liking our instances of late yindicated the honor of the city by forcign news. It findé that one: of our Cable dis+ upholding the law equally in defenso of the public health and the public purse, and against cholera, rum, and robbery. He will do nothing, we are assured, to blot this fair record; and wo altogother cougratulate the friends of good ity government that aDemocratic Judge has beon 5o wisely hopest as to give one of the principal sohemes of muricipal plunder its death blow. Thanks no less are due to one of the honest minority of O®uncilmen, Mr. Christopher Pullman, who brought suit against the fraud about to be consummated by our gas-coutracting Councilmen, and did not quit bis chosen work a day till he had secured the victory for the City which yesterday Judge Barnard made manifest from the bench. The City will not, in this instance, be forced to open its pockets at the auda- cious demaad of its officizl bighwaymen. It was argued that the Common Council wasa logislative body, and could not, therefore, bo re- strained by injunction; but the Judge found his duty clear in the laws of 1860, which authorize the Connty Supervisors to levy by taxation for certain objects, among them the lighting of the city by gas, under provision that no part of the Corporation should incur liability beyond the sums appropriated for objects specified. The appropriation for gas is limited to 5, which sum can cover only o contract for one year, while it is snfficiontly notorions that the City’s coun- cilmen contracted for 10 years and for a much larger sum per year, thus legislating away illegally and wastofully millions of hard-earned and hardly-borno taxes. The swindle of tue Gas Contracts would have cost the City little short of $10,000,000, one-half of which was likely to have been gross profit to the con- tractors. Judge Barnard continued the injunction sgainst the contract, and thus has saved the city, and the city's poor, who must ultimately bear the burdens which popularly-elocted frand installed in office imposes upon its tax-payers, millions about to bo thrown into the abysmal pockets of the city’s countless thieves, Of searcoly inforior importance is the decision which Justice Baruard has rendered in the case of Richard A. Henry against Chacles G, Cornell, Street Commissioner. ‘The case was oile in which the con- grogated interests of our most respectable citizens, ropresented by the standing and talent of the Citizons’ Association, took active and zealous part. Itis no secrot that the office of tho Street Commissioner is open to the same charges and suspicion that have as- sailed the malpractices of our illiterate and unsoeu- pulons Comncilmen. Judge Barnard’s decision ad- vertisos the fact in law that the books of officers of the corporation must be open to all citizens; so that here- after we ave less liable to suffor from having the lurid lights of the Street Department bhid under a bushel. These two decisions, we submit, are a good day's work. . THE ATLANTIC TELLGRAPH COMPANY. We publish elsswhere a card from Mr. Saward, Sec- rotary and Generdl Superintendent of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, explaining that the responsibility of the repeatod dolays which have taken place in the transmission, by Cable, of intelligence from Europe to this country, does not rest with the Company he repressnts. They bave arisen, it appears, from the present imperfect condition of the Newfoundland lines, which, however, are being properly recoystructed soas to obviate in future the inconvenience of which gene. ral complaint has been made, Mr. Saward's lotter, as far as it goes, is satisfactory. We give the Atlantic Telegraph Company full eredit for a desire to meet the ywishes of the public on both sides of the Atlantic, and we are not insensible to the dificalties whieh must at- tend the initiatory working of their gréat enterpriseq bus without laying ourselves open to the charge of being captious, we may bs allowed to observe that as regards the transmission of news by the At- lantic Cable, there is great room for improvement. For iustance, we fiud The London Spectator of the 20th inst. complaining that instead of reporting what people want to know, only vague scraps of intelli- gence are transmitted from this side. Up to that date, it seems, they had not heard in England the result of the elections in Okbio, Illinois, Indiaua and lowa, sll of which took place the same day with that for Pennsylvania. And so we on this side are fre- quently favored with items of news utterly devoid of interest to the people of this country—news relating o matters of which no one here cares a jot. These things demand attention, and it is to bo hoped that with the reduction of tolls, and the completion of the subsidiary lines, & better system of management will be inangurated. P ; FINANCIERING. Though the following appeared in our last, it im- portance justifies its reconsideration: “ AW ASHINGTON. Oet, 31.—The receipta of Internal revene to: | 2 By 919748, The total receipt for Uotober re 20, 414,430, agninst #30 437,063 for the corrosponding month uf st year. The reveipts for ke four months of the present fiscal year amount to §125,350,503. whicl is nearly §1,000,000 in excess of recelpts for the corresponding monthy of 1865, At the elun of businiess to-duy, there were nearly $100.000,000 of gold bel hy the Treasury, mlutm, about §i4,000,000 beld on gold cer- tificates.

The Secretary is firm in the detarmingtion uat to diapate <7 goih Jor the presentoont | Lenst, cxcept as it may be requlred for leyitinate disharsements | of the Governmeat.” 1 — Recretary McCulloch would seem to regard the ! paywent of our National Debt not.a ** legitimate” dis- bursement of public money. We non-concur. Thatis | the very object for which this sarplue wes, by stringent | taxation, created. . The Secrotary might at once buy up and cancel at least $100,000,000 worth of our Public Debt, thereby reducing the annual interest, payable out of the earnings of the People, by at least $5,000,000—it | visor, and will surely be chosen. But let bim have. might be by over 7,000,000, This redemption of Pablic Dept would release at least §75,000,000 in gold, throwiug it into the chaunels of trade, rendering gold abundant for every conceivable purpose, and increasing the real valne of enryi “ greenback " and “* Government bond " in the conn- | duty of registry; every patches expressed an opinion. By referring to that dispateh it will be found thatithe: news was true and the opinion a natural otie. The Associated Press sent a dispatch uext day corroborating our news. A more prudent item of news' was never published. - Our co- temporaty also dislikes & statement of one of eur Beriin correspondents, that Napoleon was 8o noswell that the principal surgeon . of Prussia had gone to Biarritz, and that the Emperor was dangerously ill. Evergbody knows that the Emperor has been in bad health, and that his stay at Biarrits was for that reazon prolonged. The Times bas never been cou- spiouous for enterprise. When it can got a cor- respondent into the service of the Govern- mout, and have his expenses paid, it manages to do very well, and much of the enterprise that it has shown recently has been through the * kindness” of the Administration. ‘What- ever may be the character of our fereign dispatches, they cost a good deal of money, and they are under- stood to be the best reccived by any American Bews- paper. Tho only impression The Times has made re- cently has been a facility in garbling dispatches. For “fixing" up dispatches and making them * tell,” for pitifully tivkering with the fame of Generals like Sher- idan, to suit the contemptible purposes of a degraded Administration, The Timos has attained a couspicuous notoriety. This sort of enterprise is easy. It may be done in & moment, and eosts no money. We have no desiro to imitate our cotemporary or to dispute its preéiminence in this respect. ] Two newspapers in New-Jersoy have been quoted to us as urging every voter to be at thgpolls npon the second Tuesdny of November, aund one too-confiding reader of those sheots was yesterday passing through this city upon a week's trip, intending to return in time to deposit his vote upon one week from next Tuesday.

It is not desirable to him, bat is very desirable for the City, that he should succeed. We edrnestly hope he may. Col. Hexey Bepsy, Republican-Union caudidate for Assembly ia the XVIth District, has long been honorably known in the XVIIth Ward, as an earnest patriot and reformer. ~ The district is adverse, but he has two if not three competitors, and can probably be elected.
