Government. The United States owe the ac-
QUESTION Of Louisiana to Daniel Clark His
influence reconciled the people TO the change
of government, and gave them the most favo
rabe impressions Of the justice and wisdom Of
the United States.
The witness further testified that in 1871,
Clark conveyed to him thirty lots for thesole use
and benefit OF Myra. At the same time, Clark
stated that he made a provision will, making
Chew and Relf his executors, but that he had
provided by confidential agreement for Myra.
In 1913, Clark spoke Of settling up his affairs,
and making will in favor Of Myra, and re.
questing him to act as executor, in conjunction
with De La Croix and Judge Pilot. AT this
time he spoke Of Myra as his daughter in the
the most emphatic and impress manner. He
afterwards showed him his will, written in his
own hand, providing, as before stated, that
Myra should be his sole heiress. This will,
after the death Of Clark, could not be found
where he had placed it, but the one of 1911
had been substituted for it.

We hope that this Congress will do oil that
il can do to avert the evils to be apprehended
from the next Here we speak of the House
of Representatives. The next House will be
composed Of the Fusionists-m Of every hue
and stripe. The proportion of the good and
true men, to the bad and unsound men, will be
very small. In the Senate, happily for the
country, there will be large majority of sound
conservative members None of the enormi-
ties that piebald and leprous majority Of the
House may concoct, can pass the Senate.
They may attempt to repeal the fugitive slave
law and the Nebraska bill they may attempt
to abolish slavery in the District Of Columbia,
to abolish the slave trade between the States.
and to exclude slavery from the Territories,
but they can accomplish none Of their inia-
nous objects The conservative Senate will
be check upon them.

upon the table, because at the moment they re.

upon the table, because at the moment they re-
garded other business more urgent.
In brief paragraph few days ago we re-
ierred TO thisSbill as provision for a modest
increase OF the navy;" but, from information
since communicated to us, we are satisfied that
il should rather be regarded as a deficiency bill;
Tor, although in the past ten years nine sloops
OF twenty guns each and four briggs and two
schooners of ten guns each have by casualty or
decay been removed from the effective force Of
the navy, not a single eessel has been built TO
replace them.
AT this moment both the economy and eff
cheney of our naval administration in various
parts OF the world call for the construction OF
even larger number than seven sloops. In
China the protection of our commerce, the per-
sonal safety of our citizens, and the extension
Of our diplomacy have compelled the Govern
ment to charter and equip foreign ships.
SIN the Paraguay and the Parana the want Of
a vessel of the class now asked for may not
onlypostpone to our commerce the development
OF important advantages, but by revealing in
those distant seas and shallow waters want
OF efficiency III our marine, a spark of misun-
Outstanding may grow into flame OF open
war.
"The class Of vessels asked for the bill now
under consideration is eminently fitted for the
protection of our commerce in time of peace
and the defense of our coast in time of war
and, if we may trust the opinions advanced a
few days ago in the Senate, the present is not
the season to hesitate upon the adoption of a
provision for approXimating state of readiness
for emergencies which wise statesmen strive
| to avoid, yet prepare to meet

Parliament and the Press.

In both Houses of Parliament agood deal Of
time was given last night to the instruction Of
the press in it's special duties under present
circumstances. So dead a set seemed to be
made at ourselves and those of our contempt
raries who have taken most pains to get news
OF the war-so numerous were our school
masters-that it is evident these gentlemen inn
agined themselves teaching in Sunday school
class of young journalists ready to learn any
thing the squire and the parson might agree
upon for the purpose. We find ourselves ad-
monished by ministers and ex-ministers, by
Lords and Commons, by all sides of the House.
Lord Lansdowne having sweetened the lip Of
the cup with his most honeyed terms, trusts
that we will say nothing to disturb the general
unanimity on the subject of the war; Lord
John Russell, who has given currency to some
Of the strongest expressions about the state of
our army and the character of its management,
now turns round, abuses the "ribald press for
what it has done, expresses his entire satisfac-
ton with Lord Raglan for what he has done,
announcing his intention of supporting the
Ministry for what it will do, whatever that may
be, and speaks as if it were the greatest crime
in the world to do what he has himself done in
helping to burst the bubble Of our late war adj
ministration.
Mr.. Gladstone adheres to his figures, and, in
the face of every letter that arrives, still main
tains that there is British army Of near 30, 900
lighting men before Sebastopol. Mr.. Wortley
thinks the tone of the newspapers likely to
create dependency in our own soldiers, and
confidence in the foe; and, moreover, that
their accounts are greatly exaggerated. In
fine, we have received great deal of advice,
civil and uncivil, but in purport very much the
same-the same, in fact, as that with which
certain allied Kings in the Bible are said to
have given to particular prophet who would
persist in giving different account Of their
prospects from the rest Of his class, and which,
somehow or other, they could not suspect to be
true. Prophecy unto US smooth things" is
the language of all selfconstituted masters. 1t
is evident that we have only to burn our cor
respondence from the camp and Constantine
ple,. and compose letters from the Crimea de-
| scribing perpetual improvement in the
weather, Lord Raglan always seen everywhere,
order reigning at Balakava,. the men in excel
lent health and spirits, and the army always
standing at 10000, and we shall be in better
favor at headquarters than we have been for
many long month, and shall continue to en-.
JOY this favor till, some fine morning, Lord
Raglan and his staff return with their horses,
their plate, and their china their German
cook, and several tons weight of official re-
turns-all in excellent order and the announce
ment that, the last British soldier being dead,
they had left our position in the care of our gal.

This case is still on trial at New Orleans.

in her infancy was called Myra Clark.

lover of liberty. He refused to become

says: " Is c. +. Suttle, the magistrate recently
elected in Alexandria, the owner OF the fugi-
gitive, Anthony Burns, who asserted his own
rights at Boston, and succeeded in having
them maintained?' We answer, he is. And
what is more, we can add that we have no
doubt, if ever any of the Boston men who be-
haved so badly to him, should have business
before Colonel Suite, in his capacity as mag
istrate, they will find that he will perform his
duties, according TO la,c and show them how
justice is administered in Trginia-and give
them an example Of moderation, propriety, and
dignity, which they may contrast with the i'm
proper proceedings of some Of their own cit-
