Election in Georgid- Perjury- We remaiked, sjme days prior to the re cent election, that one - great object ot the American party was; the purification of the ballot-box,and that it was: the detcrmix j nation of the party, in this city at least, to kosecute every mas who should bo found guilty of illegal roting. Thiis remark of ours was ren-deJ as a. threat thrown out to frighten timid men from (heir proprie ty. All friends of the Democrat ticket were -assured that there was no danger to be ap prehended to be bold to exercise the right of sulfVagt', and not to be jiismayed by Know Noting threats. ljlow far the I)emocrati4 party in pursuing this course, have rtn lerl' themselves responsible for the agencies wliich are alledg-id against certain of their agents and silpporters, we need hoc undertake to decide. It is- a questioii 'which every thinking man may detenniiil.lbr liimsclf. ' f; It is a.lufrrient refutation of the charge that Mn!atement was an electioneering trick, tofsay that several persons hlavt al ready been arrested under the charge of -pel jury. at the polls, soine of hora have given bail, while others have1 been cohin mittctT to iail. Among the latter are some, ignorant sailors, who were-Uken to-the pollsaod, hy tKe moat candaUus arid false, representations, iutloci'(itp vote. We un derstand that the oalhivvkicha challenged voter is lequired to take had tp be!trans!a ted or interpreted for one of them. Who, we would ask, is the tho greater criminal, iliis ignorant sailor, or the n an who so dued him info the violation of, the law? The reader at a distance snould- not conchfdc tiiet these arijests aro confined to such 'poor 'dupes as this sailor Others, of a diifeietit clats,meu known throughout the city-have-been arrested and j required to enter into bonds for their appearance at the next term cftl.e court. This is not all. .Th'c woik of invcstigiti JU will be prosecuted until the law is vindicated and the ballo:box purified.
