ELECTION FRAUb.
In the course oftie examiination of a wit
ness in a case tried during the present term
of the' court, the witness testified that le vo
tedat the late election, though not of the age
of 21, by putting a piece of paper, with 21
written on it, in his shoe, and so voting,
!being," as he -said, "orer 21?
rThe Judge commented very severely on
this fraud on the election, and so treated at
without an indictmnent, wvhich, however, he

have fared badly, and his vote wo'uld have
cost him dearly.
