- On Tuesday discovery was made that the grave of Thomas Ready, recently deceased, in the Catholic cemetery, had been opened and robbed -the work having probably been done on Saturday or Sunday night.

As printed and posted the lists show voters in the several wards asfollows: rirst,470; Second,297; Third, 476; Fourth, 354; Fifth, 176; Sixth,206; total, 1,979, ur f uil 400 more ñames than there are voters in I the city. Some names are on two, three or four lists ; some lists include the names of persous moved from the city years ago, and also the names of persous who have been dead a erable length of time. If the aldermen will come together before the day for registration and compare lists they will be able to make a general sUughter and save canvassers hunting up I manent) absentees or dead electora on election day. Such incorrect and lumbered up lists offer a premium to illegal voting : that is if we have any politicians of the Philadelphia school, adepta in personating, or in votiug on the names of other people.
