Thus, a political conspiracy to ehange the result of the vote in the district, which before would have been known to the managers of perhaps the whole cighty precinets, ean now be conducted with facility by the thirty-three county canvassers alone. The counting of the votes cast in each coun- ty may be done at any time within ten days after the election, and the county canvassers have an opportunity duving this period to arrange and consummate any fraud which they may — desire There is also another curious circumstance in this curious case. On tho 14th of May, only seventeen days before the election, Gov. Scort appointed a new boly of count canvassers, composed almost excltvively of Wuittremone’s personal friends, ‘Ie law requires that the canvassera shall be ap- pointed sixty days prior to the day of election, and the appointinents made by the Governor only seventeen days prior to the election are nevertheless serve to secure WHITTKMORE'S return to Congress, «0 that he will be there to take advantage of any future rise in the price of cadetships.

Why is it that the navy of the United States costs from three to four times as much per man enlisted as that of Great Britain ? It coets the American taxpayers $151.10 per ton to maintain the ever sickly tonnage of their navy ; the British navy costs only $72.66 per ton, It costs us $600 per man per annnm to keep our navy afloat, to keep it in repair, to keep up its standard ; it costs only $60 per man tokeepthe British navy afloat, ‘The estimate last year for new machinery and repairs for the British navy, wh is three and a half times larger than ours, was only $3,749,080, while the est!mate for this year is $6,975,000! This item £600 for each man afloat ; it costs the British but | 300 por man! If we had inour Navy De- pariment the honesty, econon’ nee of law?
