yened at New Orleans, Louisiana, pursuant to Spe
scial orders No. 10, dated October 9Th, 1866, Spe
cial Orders No. log, dated November 4, 1865, and
Special Orders No. 100, dated November 5, 1866,
from Headquarters Department Of Louisiana, of
which Colonel Charles A. Hartwell, 10th us
Colored Artillery, {Heavy,) is President, was
arraigned and tried:
Capt. o. "A. Avery, Sd Rhode Island Cavalry.
CHANGE" Conduct to the prejudice of good
order and military discipline
PLEA-To which charge and its specifications the
accused pleaded" Not Guilty.
iFNDNa--After mature deliberation the Court
finds the accused of the specifications to the
charge, and Of the charge" Not Guilty.
And does therefore acquit him, Captain o. A.
Avery, Sd Rhode Island Cavalry.
2. The proceedings and finding in the foregoing
case are approved; but the record shews very
unsatisfactory and improper method of transacting
business in the office of the Provost Marshal at
New IBERIA tending to throw suspicion on the off
Ger concerned, and reproach on the service. The
action Of Captain Avery in not bringing Joseph
DeCourt to trial for his ofense, and in permitting
person in his office to accept money, is not com
mended.

No Gifts or Donation
Required.
Meeting at the Court House Mon
day Evening.

Mr.. Jacobs, of Philadelphia, practical
cotton manufacturer, is now in this city for the
purpose of making arrangements to start
large cotton factory here, provided our citi-
zens will take an interest in the matter
He is said to have capital sufficient to put in
the machinery and stock and run the factory,
but he wishes the people to become interest
ed In the matter to the extent of furnishing
ground, erecting the buildings and putting
in the motive power. The persons who do
this are to become stockholders to the
amount of money thus invested, but Mr..
Jacobs reserves the sight to purchase their
stock at par, as fast as he may wish to do SO,
they drawing their proportion of the profits
of the business while they hold their stock.
This appears to be splendid opportunity
for our people to start first class cotton fac.
tory-an institution which would greatly
increase the value Of our real estate, and the
population and business of the city and coun-
ty. There is plenty of money lying idle in
government bonds, in this city, to build half
dozen such concerns. viii those who hold
it invest it in a business where it will be full
" q, secure as it now is where it will pay
fully as large an income, and where it will
add UNNECESSARILY to the wealth, business
and population OF the place? Go to the
court house Monday evening and see.

HON. THOMAS EWING.

This veteran statesman has recently written
letter in favor of President Johnsons restoration
policy. The Boston Post says the letter is the
closest argument and the kecnest logic that have
been given TO the public. Mr.. Ewing was Gen.
Harrison's secretary of the treasury. He voted
for Abraham Lincoln, was an ardent supporter
of the war, and has acted with the republican
party until the radical element became strong
enough to over power the better portion of con-
gress. Mr.. Ewing hol Is that every act of the
late congress, not officially endorsed by the pres
ident, is legally null and void that while near
ly one-third of the states of the Union were
kept, perforce, out of all congressional represen
tation, only those legislative acts of the remain
ing states in congress were valid which the exc
cutive (who represented the entire Union1 sane
toned by his official signature and that no court
can accept the others as constitutional. lie
thus places the freedmen's bureau BILL the civil
rights bill, and the proposed amendment to the
constitution, outside the pale of law, and in do
ing so he only accepts he decision of many 9TH
er great legal minds the subject, while he
adds much to the grave doubts always entertain
ed in the popular mind about the validity of so
much Of our recent congressional legislation as
did not meet with the executive approval. The
logic of Mr.. Ewing fully explodes the error, or
worse than error, of congress in excluding the
representatives of states which had never been
out of the Union, and the whole letter merits
earnest and devoted attention. The voice of ad-
monision comes from great man of the past,
and is uttered for the future
