clerks a ticket that has the initials <»f tho
clerks written on the left-hand corner
of tho back, and a stamp from the other
clerk. He should then go alone into a
booth and mark his ballot with the
stamp. If he wishes to vote a straight
ticket ho marks with tho stamp in the
square opposite tho title of tho party
with which he votes,
vote a mixed ticket, or to omit entirely
one or more offices, ho should stamp the
front of the name of each*
candidate for whom he desires to vote,
and should stamp but once
square. If he desires to vote for any per
whoso name does not appear on the
ticket, ho can substitute the name by
writing it in ink in the proper place

how to mark hi3 ballot, he should a»k
the voters' assistants to instruct him.

Before leaving tho booth he should fold !
his ballot so that the initials of the I
dorks, on the back, will show, but so
that uo part of the face of the ballot can

The sceno about the health office during
the morning was one of intense excite
ment. People came in crowds to inquire
about friends returning from Germany
and other foreign ports. Staten Islanders
much alarmed over the nearness of
the disease. In past years, owing to the
proximity of the hospital islands and
quarantine grounds, they have suffered
terribly from yellow 1 over, cholera and
sraali-pox epidemics. Old Staten Islanders
recall the year 1867, when cholera visited
them, and say it was remarkable, the
peculiar course the disease took. All
along the shore it spread with startling
rapidity and dealt, death with an open
hand ox er territory which only extended a
few blocks from the shore. It never
reached the hills and deaths among those
living on the heights were rare. If the
cholcr comes to any further extent there
will, it is probable, be a number of re
