increase their force of employees in the spring, in
order to complete the work to Salt Lake as
speedily as possible.

Louisiana Affairs.
Iue COuItSO ONeI OulCeS is becoming
more earnest and complicated every day. Two
nominations lately made by the President for
New Orleans have been rejected by the Senate.
The Union men of Louisiana now desire the
removal of Cuthbert Bullitt, United States
Marshal, and allege, among other things, that
he has gone over TO the Copperheads. The
Maine delegation have recommended for the
position Captain B. Packard, who served
in Maine regiment under General Butler, who
has since resided in New Orleans. Late news
from New Orleans has been received. General
Candy has relieved the temporary Mayor, Mr..
Rozier, and allowed the President of the Board
of Aldermen, George Clark to act as Mayor.
Mr. Clark was elected to the Secession Corven-
tion as co-operationist, but signed the ordi.
nance ofsecession, and went into the Rebellion
as Captain of the Continental Guards. The
complaints from New Orleans against General
Candy are numerous.

Sketch of the Hon. solomon Foot.


Solomon Foot was born at Cornwall Addison
county, Vermont, November H. 1902, and graduated
at Middeburg College, in his native State, in 1926.
He was employed instructor in various schools
and academies until 1881, when, having studied law,
he admitted to the bar in the town of his resi-
~dence, Rutland.
He sent to the State LEGISLATURE for three con
secutive years from 1885, and IN 1s47. He was
Speaker Of the House for his last three years. In
1885 he was member of the State Constitutional
Convention, and was elected to Congress IN 1912
and 1874. At the close of the last term, declining
reelection, he renewed his profession, but twas
chosen to the United States Senate in 1850 1885, and
1852. He was also President of the Brunswick and
Florida Railroad Company, of Georgia.
Mr.. Foot deserves the credit of having cultivated
his natural powers TO their EXTREMIST extent. He
became lawyer of more than ordinary power, and
a politician OF great influence. Originally he was
Wing, but moved from the party in the dissensions
and disputes OF the compromise. since then ne has
affiliated with the Republican and Constitutional
Union parties, and has done whatever lay IN his
power to give them strength and supremacy.
Mr.. Foot's character was rather dehberative and
judicial than argumentative He was mole judge
than lawyer, and though strong in his feelings
and decided in his advocacy, he rather came in to
support preconceived measures than advanced to
inaugurate them. He was an abe, unfinchin &
Unonist in dark days and his loss will be severely
felt throughout the length and breadth of the
United States His patriotism, clear Judgment, and
high social qualities will be long remembered by
those who have had the honor to associate with him
in the Senate.

THE LEGAL PORTION OF THE MESSAGE.

The statement published to. the effect that Hon.
Henry Stanberry, of Ohio, at the instance of the
President, prepared that part of the veto message
embracing the legal objections to the Civil Rights
Stanberry, in company with friends, called
on Thursday evening last just before his
to the President and the conversation happening to
turn upon the Civil Rights bill, Mr.. johnson re-
uuested Mr. StanberrY to state his legal opinion OF
It's provisions, which request Mr. Stanberry promptly
complied with. And 1t may be added that the
President has, on this subject, avaied himself of
the opinion of other lawyers of equal emf
nence and like ability so that the veto message
is abundantiy fortified by the best legal talent in
the country.

Special Despatch to the EOening Telegraph.
BALTIMORE, March 2s.-Bradley I. Johnson,
Rebel General was arrested here yesterday, and
taken before Judge Giles, of the United States
Circuit Court, on a previous indictment for
treason. He was held under $4,000 bail for
further investigation, and gave the require d
security.
The American condemns the Presidents veto,
and thinks these great questions must now go to
the people; that nine-tenths of the Union party
do not agree with him. The Commercial adopts
the Washington Stars opinion. The Sun quietly
approves. The Gazette rejoices. As general
thing the veto produces no special sensation
here.

New YORK, March 2s.-The alleged principal
in the great bond robbery of $1,000, 900 from H.

reached United States Marshal Murray, few
days since, that the persons implicated were
about to leave for Boston. They were watched
and followed, and the supposed principal was
captured on his arrival at Newburyport, Mass.
1t has not yet transplred whether the missing

AUSTIN, March 12.-In the Constitutional Con-
vention, on the Sth instant, the debate on the
repeal of the Ordinance of Secession brought
forward Messrs. Waul, Ireland, and Runnells,
three unpardoned Rebel generals each of whom
maintained that the State had right to seeede
in 1861. In ii speech made by Waul he declared
that the people OF Texas had been marching TO
such other music of late that they would not
submit to everything chat was asked of them.
Mr.. Ireland also remarked that they (the
Rebels) would have TO grid on their swords and
90 to the assistance of President johnson. Many
of the Union delegates are getting sick and tired
of the proceedings, and are leaving in disgust.
There are prospects of general smash-up in the
Convention before long.

After the reading of the journal, Mr.. Sumner
rose and said:- ..aH
Mr.. President, a great bereavement has fallen
upon the Senate. Mr.. Foot, Senator of Yer.
mont, one of our most honored associates and
the oldest among us in continuous service, died
this morning at o'clock. He has passed from
this scene OF duty and honor. In the presence
of such a sorrow it seems better that public
business should be suspended in this chamber
today.
Accordingly l shall make motion which
believe will have the sympathetic concurrence
of the Senate. l make It in the absence of the
surviving Senator OF Vermont, who is now ne
cessarily engaged in attendance upon the family
of the deceased, and after consultation with
him. move that the Senate do now adjourn.
The motion was carried, and the Senate ad-
iourned until tomorrow.
