FROM WASHINGTON.
THE ADMISSION OF KANsAs-DEMoC-
RACY AND NEW TERRITORIES.

ouwpszs.aspse q The n. Y. Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Feb. s. $780,
A larse number of Democrats are here from Kan
ms. and have consulted with Southern Democratic
Senator's who will advocate the admission Of Kan
ssa into the UnOu, With the proposition for
seanee Of the boundaries 90 as to include all the
Territory Of Jefferson and tho portion of Nebraska
Territory south Of Platte River; this change to bo
submitted to a vote of the people of Kansas and
% its ratification, they are to be admitted as
State, by the proclamation Of the President.
Gen. S. C. PomerOy, the Hon. Marcus j. Par
rsst, Judge W. +. NJ. Army, and other Republicans
who are here insist upon the admission OF Kansas
wsh ,be w, andot Constitution, without anS cfsoge
OF boundary, or any other alteratlon-that Coasn-
tuition having been already ratified by the vote Oh
large majority of the citizens of Kansas
II is understood here that the question OF popuia.
fion will not be urged Judge Petit of Kansas said
here in public, " that though he t00k no part ~
the political affairs of Kansas, yet ms CANDID
"opinion was that there are az least xV,oVV 'o.en
"in Kansas. ms Parrot aud Johnston got over
"I6COO votes. Upon a six months residence
.. there must be now over 1000; and allowing five
persOns to a voter, it would make the population
eiCO.OOO, which would come up fully to the re-
" QGirements OF the English bill.
i learn that the Southern Democrats propose
TO resist the organization of any Territories"
They are forced to this position by the condition of
fheir party upon the question of Popular Sow
eeienty" one portion Of the party insist that the
doctrine Of the Nebraska bill shall control IN the
organization of every new Territory. The other
portion carry out the teachings of the President IN
his late message, demand that every bill organizing
new Territories shall contain provision prohibiting
their Legislatures, by "uniriendly legislation OF
etherwiee, from interfering with Negro Slavery, but
it shall make it their duty to pass such laws as may
lie necessary TO protect, extend, and perpetuate
their peculiar institution. Such being the position
f The Democratic party it is impossible for them &c
agree upon the organization of any new Territory
IN this dilemma they intend to dispose Of the whole
pub6c domain as follows: Dakota and the region
round about is to be attached to Nebraska, and 1T
Institutions are to conform to the fortunes OF tina
Territor,; while Utah and the Territories south o
Kansas are to be annexed to New-MexcO, aud Z
follow IFS fortunes to Democracy and Slavery
This will show to what are tending. The Slay
Power having secured Slavery in New-Mexico b.
law, proposes 10 bring this immense territory unde
the same enactment, thus securing it 70 SLAYER

More Help IN Virginia. - Mr.. j.
Monroe Taliaterro, the present State Sc
nator from the district composed of the
counties of Prince William. Stafford and
King George, in Virginia, replying to a
communication frouf Some Of his consti-
tuents requesting to know his view on the
presidential election, has written a letter
avowng his determination to give his
support to Mr. Douglas, I" because he be-
lieves him to be the regular democratic
nominee ; because he thinks Mr.. Douglas
is a patriot and statesman; because he
supposes his election would be best for
the country, and because Mr.. Douglas
has been a bold and manly defender of
southern rights"
The Doug{us Meeting.-A meeting
of the friends of Douglas and Johnson
was held here last evening. 1t was first
addressed by our friend A. l.. Gus
man. He reviewed at length the legal
bearing of the question at issue about the
territories, in an able and interesting
manner. Major A. S. Heron next adj
dressed the meeting, in most able and
.argumentative speech. He laid down
clearly and explicitly the arguments of
the Breckinridgers,a ndwc do not remem
Der of ever hearing their fallacy better
exposed. 1t is well that the Breckin Z
ridge speakers avoid discussion, forthey
could not answer with any credit to
themselves, the stern facts which are
brought against them-nor can they
maintain that Douglas and Johnson are
not the nominees and do not stand
upon the democratic platform. ~ Plaque

The Storm at Gallon Lsland.-In
addition to the particulars of the late storm
at Gallon Island, heretofore published,
(says the Eaening True Delta of Mon
day,) we learn frQasLhe Lafourche Union
that the buildia IRE, with the excep-
ton of the sunn residences belonging
to Mrs. J. ColIid and H;SM. Thibodaux,
have been Completely demolished. The
hotel is perfect wreck. The building
containing the billiard table, d number of
cisterns, portion OF the cattle and one or
two kitchens, completely washed away
Fortunately no lives were lost. On Tim
ba!ier island, where the water also rose to-
terrible height during the prevalence Of
the gale, the fishermen and those who.
were then sojourning thereon found u re-
tuge in the lighthouse, which was uil-s
harmed.
ST. Mary.-Sugar making in this pa-
rish has commenced in earnest-masiys Of
the planters having put their engines in
motion and their pots a-boiling.

The river is slowly rising at this point.
Many OF our citizens, Young ard old.
have been afflicted with the painful but

Excitement. - There was considerable
excitement in Covington last week, grow
ing out of rnmor that gang of horse
thieves were committing depredations
there. The Wanderer says:
One of the party, who said his name
was Ellison, was arrested tried before the
justice and acquitted, there being no proof
to convict further than suspicion, which
has since turned out to be fact, that he
belonged to a gang Of horse thieves. He
was given six hours to leave the parish, |
which he very willingly accepted, after
being converted into Il =" shoe shop,' or !
g kicking post,' as he passed through the
excited crowd"
Gaze Rimsclc Up.-Mr. James Horns
by, charged with numbering Mr.. II. II.
Wallis, last spring, on Bayou Black, in
the parish OF Terrebonne (says the La
fourche Union), and for whose arrest a
reward of five hundred dollars has been
offered, has, we are informed, returned,
and given himself up to Justice.
Washed A1cay.-A portion of the ferry
landing at De Soto, the little village in
Louisiana, near Vicksburg, was washed

The Coolie Trade Us. The .Slave
Trade.-The New York Herald of the
5th says:
4 We are Informed that by the next
i steamer the round sum Of 1897 200 will
Nbe sent in drafts to England, to charter
Vessels to go to China and take coolies
tort Havana, according to the recent
pefsmission granted by the Spanish gov
ern .nent. Said amount of money came
intofthis country with the express object
ofschartering vessels; but as the con-
tractors have seen the fate of the YES
sells gSing to the coast Of Africa, they
became. afraid and decided at once to
go to EN- land. Our informant states
that it is impossible to obtain coveni-
ent vessel for the coolie trade, which
will not be coafounded by the authori-
ties with SLAYER; and of course no
one wishes to be in trouble in our ports
when it is SO easy to charter good sail
ing ships in Great Britain: We sup
posed that it was matter of little
moment to ascertain the difference be-
tween a legalsand an illegal cargo, but
thesrules being founded on the appear
anee of it, the classification depends
entirely on the eyes of the Inspector.
II such. is the tease, an established
standard should be had in this import
ant matter. The authorities are irrcs-
Pdnsible for the damage they cause by
the. detention of ~ essels; aud the
bona fide merchants prefer, as in the
present case, to go somewhere else rat
her than to expose themselves to loss
i'll our ports. This matter should be
looked into by Exeter hall.

Douglas and johnson Club,
Carrollton.

This spirited organization assembled
in accordance with call, on Saturday
egaping last, 18th instant, and made a
Tseme display with their transpar-
9ncies; band of music; torchlights,
brooms, showels, etc.
About half-past seven o'clock =. NJ,
they left their Club Room at the Car
rollton Hotel, preceded by fine Band,
and paraded through the principal
streets of our city. During their
march they halted in front of this
office and gave three cheers and a
tiger" for the ''CARRoLLToN sun"
The procession was under charge of
their Marshal, Hon. A. S. Forth. There
appeared to be a large degree of enthu-
siasm about their choice for the no
blest gift in the hands of freemen;
and if it depended upon the vote of
Carrollton, Douglas and Johnson would
be the epresentativet CT the White
House after 4th March next.
After the procession had marched
through the principal streets of the
city, it formed in front of the Carroll
ton Hotel and there listened with pro-
found attention to stirring and patriotic
speeches in English and German, deliv-
cred by the Hon. E. III. Heistand; also
speeches of the same purport in Eng
lish by our District Attorney, r. l..
Preston and fellow citizen Thomas l..
Maxwell. Everything in regard to
the procession etc., went off with great
eclat and to the satisfaction of the
Club and ali parties in attendance.
Bravo to the Douglas and Johnson
Club Of Carrollton, say we.
T.. S.-We leave the reader to draw
MS own inference, in regard to the
ohoyels and Brooms in the procession. |

letter said to have been written to Carl

to break his connection with Victor
Emanuel and his government, who alone
can effect the liberation of Italy. He
also invites the Dictator to give up all
designs upon Rome, in order not to
draw upon himself the hostility of
France, the only defender of Italy and
the only hope of oppressed rationale
ties; and lastly, not to attempt any
thing against Hungary, that country
not being as yet ripe for revolution.

Hon. John S. Miltson.-This gen
tleman, who represents the people of
Norfolk and neighborhood in Congress,
made speech at Norfolk, on the 4th
inst, in which he expressed the follow
ing opinions:
He announced himself in favor of
preserving the American Union in the
event of Lincoln's election in a con-
stitutional way, and demonstrated that
the Black Republican party was organ
lied upon false pretences; that it was
impotent to contend against the united
Democracy that the cause of slavery
was gaining as well in the Moth as in
the South, and that under the decision
of the Supreme Court in the bred Scott
case, that the power of the Black Re-
publicans, as an anti-slavery party,
was gone-its lance was shivered, and
it's efforts to prevent the expansion of
slavery in the Territories of the Union
paralyzed, because the object for which
that party was avowedly organized
was pronounced unconstitutional by
the Supreme Judicial Ttibtiial of the
country. He deplored the devided con-
dition of the national Democratic party,
at time when, by concert of action
between Northern and Southern Demo-
Gratis, it was in their power to inhict
Waterloo defeat upon the anti-slayery
forces.

Europeas--4Etairs IN Westinghouse
We see it stated in special dispatches to
the New York press, that advices re-
ceived by the latest foreign mails from
Europe from our Ministers, tend rather to
increase that mitigate the difficulties and
complications that surround the Italian
question. The disturbed and threatening
aspect Of affairs in Europe produces great
uneasiness in diplomatic circles at Wash
mgOn.
Information from high and reliable
source, brought by the last mail from
Europe, states that the Pope will not leave
Rome. 1t is his present intention to re-
main in the Holy City. q should,'' says
the writer, "consider it a fatal mistake
for him to leave at present. He is safe
where he is; even Garibadi would not
modest him should he take possession Of

is from Chattanooga paper:
d The express train which left Nash
Vile for Chattanooga, on the 9th inst,
was thrown off the track near Lavergne,
by a cross-tie which had been placed,
by some human fend, in a stock-gap,
in such manner that the cow catcher
struck the end, throwing the engine
off toathe left side. The engine turned
completely over, dragging the tender
partly off the track. This motion
uncoupled the cars from the tender,
and SO great was the momentum of
the moving cars that it cdhsed them to
rush upon the tender, seyering the
baggage and one of the passenger
cars completely in two, leaving one
side 1.-THE right whole, and crushing the
other into fragments. The left side
of the second was partly crushed in
and the car thrown over at an angle of
about forty-fiv degrees; the hfndmost
