acted on more than one occasion with the
republicans. Two years ago he was de-
feated by Atkins, by l29 votes, but he
again appealed TO bis constituents and was
sustained. His election adds another to
the candidates for speaker among the oppo-
sition, if not by his own consent, certainly
by the desire of his numerous friends and
admirers. The New Orleans Delta thinks
