ISAS HLECTIOH. OF GOV. WALKER. ® r ba»«~ 'SS'SSSMSSSSS'”-*- ^ ^Lkomton. Monday, Oct, 19,1857. By the SM section of tho organic act ee- tabliehing this Territorial Govcromout, it ia E ‘ ‘cd in reference to the elootiou of a to to Congress, that " the person bnv- e groatret number of votes' shall bo declared by the Governor to bo duly elected, Md a cmificite thereof shall be giroo ac cordingly.” By tho lCtb section of the set if the Tv r. ritorial Leglilataro of Kansas, entitled “an act to regulate elcolion*,” it it made the du ty of the Secretary to examine, tbo return* in fhe' presence of tho Governor, and to "glv* to tho person haring the highest num ber or votes in their respective districts otre tificates of tbeir eleotfon to the Legislative Assembly. Under these two provisions of tho laws prevailing in this Territory, the recent geo- oral election lias presented for the joint con sideration of tho Governor and Secretary, a question cf -tho gravest importance, not on ly to our own people, bat afro to those oi the whole Union. This question arises upou the extraordinary returns made from tho precinct of Oxford in the eounty of Juhn- son. What purport* to bo the return of tho election hold at that precinct on the 5th and 6th lost, have been reaeived by the Sec rotary, containing 1,628 names of pretended voters, or nearly ooedmlf the Dumber given in tba whole Representative District. The disposition to be made of this supposed vote ia rendered all Important by tbo foct that the political character of the Legislative Assembly will be controlled by the addition of three Couneilmen and eight Representa tives. to the itrength of one party or the other, according to tho adoption or rejection of the returns in question. In point of foct, it is well known that even the whole oounty of Johnson, compriss ing, a* it docs, part of an Indian Reserve, which, upon examination of the law, wo find is not yet subject to settlement or preemp tion, oan give no such vote os that which is represented to have been polled at this in- considerable precinct of Oxford. But while this unofficial knowledge, well-eetablisbed end universal as it may bo, could not become the ground of decision and action upon elec tion returns, in themselves regular and au thentic, the legitimate effect of an apparent enormity. sueE as that in question, would necessarily be to induce a close examination 3. its paper presented, and to require for its acceptance a period compliance with all the essential provisions of the law. Such im partially made, has brought ue to tho con clusion that the returns from Oxford precinct in Johnson county must be wholly rejected for the following reasons: 1. It does not appear on the face of the document presented to us, or in any other manner, that tho judges of election took the oath imperatively required by the statute, to secure the “impartial discharge of tbeir duties according to law." 2. It does not appear that the paper pre sented to us was one of the two original poll-books kept at the election, as required by lew ; but! ob the contrary, it dees appear, from unmistakable internal evidence, that tho paper is either a copy of some other document, or has been made up for tbo oo- casion, and ia not the genuine record of the votes taken at the election. The law re quires one of the poll-booke to bo returned to tho Secretary, the other to be deposited w in the Clerk cf the Board of Ccmmis- siooers of the proper county. 3. As the vote of each elector was to bo recorded for each one of tbo 22 candidates, and in more than a 100 cases, for 25, and that by a nra rocs vote, it was a physical impossibility that the number of votes pre tended to have been taken on the second day, being more than 1500, with the name of the voter written, and each of the 22 candidates properly designated, could hare been taken and recorded within tho time prescribed by law. — 4. It is is an extraordinary fact, lending to throw distrust upon the whole proceeding, that of the 1,623 votes, only one is given to the delegate elect to Congress; and only 124'ore recorded a? having been cart for the local candidate? of the township. Influenced by those considerations, and improsed with the grave responsibility rest ing upon u? in regard to the fairneea of the election, and iu freedom from ail fraud sas< ceptihle of detection and prevention within the scope of our duties, we deemed it essen tial to truth and justice that we should a: . w^^ri-T- > certain every fact calculated to refute or IMPORTANT FROM L>CI,A\D. oon g ftn t he conclusions derived from the face of the papers.

The Appointment wi!| take placo early next year, and pceaibly sooner. We have reason to believe that Sir Will iam Gore Ooseley has been selected for this importaakservice. If so, the choice indi cates a disposition, on the pert of the Brit ish Government, to conduct this delicate and protracted negotiates tion to a peaceful and mutually satisfactory result. Sir William Oueeiey commenced hit di plomatic career ee attache to the British Embaasay at Washington some thirty years ago, when be married a daughter of the late governor Van New, 'A Vermont.

The people of Oxford, ss well es those of the neighboring village of Santa Fe, were astounded at tbe magnitude of the returns : and all persons of all parties, in both places treated the whole affair with derision or indignation, not having beard the al eged result until several days after it had occurred. In the course of our journey to and from Oxford we passed over much tbe larger part of the country of Johosoo, and we became thoroughly satisfied there is no population in tbe whole country from which more than one third of the vote of that single precinct could have been given. We learned that some very few persona having cabins on the reserve in Johnson''county, and ciaimiug a residence therein, tboogh generally absent, had voted at some of tbe precincts in the county; but w# are convinced that a very tocociiderable number, not reebieg, we be lieve, cne hundred, of Missourians or other persons bat ing 00 admitted right to vote, did claim or attempt to exercise the right, anywhere within that county.

Read this letter from a Physician who has practiced since 1826—(too well known for comment): Prof. De Gratu, Philadelphia. Sir:—At intervals, during thirty years past, uiy wife has been subject to rheumatism of tho most violent cast—[say four times a year]—so severe u to make it necessary to administer large doses of tho tincture of guiacum and morphia, and to rock her like an infant in a largo rocking chair, to induce any reposo. Having frequent corros> pondence with ray son, )No. 103 Chostnut street, of your city,) I informed him of an attack she had about tho middle of last month, [January,] which was of such severity us to completely par* alyse the system. He, iu his anxiety for his mother's welfare, sent mo a bottle of your Elec- trie Oil; but as I am one of the practitioners of mcdicinoin this place, and not aproselyto to any kind of patent medicine, I did hesitato to give it m trial; however, on reflection, I conc[udod to try it, which I hid et periiona, directly up to the letter, and after the third or fourth application sbo became rather passive, and before one-third of tho bottle was used, not a single vestige of the disease remained in -he system, andsjieitiUcon- tinues well, although she rodoout a diatanco of fourteen miles without a renewal of any of the symptoms. I therefore feel it iny duty, fur the sake of suffering humanity, and also fully believ ing that merit, under all circumstances, should be rewarded, to forward this testimonial. I am yours, truly, Josri’H P. Elkixtox, M. D, New Grbtna P. 0., Burlington Co., N. J. P.

Prof. De Gratb.—I have boon tho victim many yoars of a Rheumatic affection, and lost tho use of my limbs/' I could not raise my hand to my head, in short, I was totally holplois. I applied your Electric Oil, and before I had und one lot• tie / teat perfectly restored. You may refer any sufferer to me MRS. E. HUTCHINS, Seventeenth and Thompson street.
