produce the best results and save the South
from many proposed Radical measures.
The New Orleans Crescent's special has
the following:
WASHINGTON, Feb. l4.-Before the meet
ing of Congress to day, Thad. Stevens was
seized with fits, understood to be apoplectic
in character.
The physician who was called in to at
tend him expresses the opinion that the
attack must, in all probability, incapacitate
him from resuming his seat in Congress, at
least during the present session.
The Louisiana bill comes before the
Senate tomorrow. The general opinion
here is that the President will allow the
measure to become q law at the expiration
Of the time allowed him for signing il,
unless it should fail of getting two-third
vote on its passage through the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. l5.-Thad. Stevens
bill has been given precedence over tho
Louisiana bill of Eliot in the Senate.
Six Republican Senators, it is known,
will oppose it, if presented without the
Blaine amendment.
The Conservative Union men Of Loui-
siana can, if they please to exert them
selves promptly and with proper degree
of energy, prevent the adoption of Eliot's
scheme by two thirds vote. They have
nothing to do but to come Immediately to
Washington and controvert the Infamous
ISLANDERS on which it is based.
can state, upon authentic grounds, that
Gen. Grant has most decidedly expressed
himself in opposition to the military bill.
He boldly declares it unconstitutional
| and takes the ground that he cannot act
Independently Of the President, who is his
commander. in chief, and from whom he
| must always receive his orders.
| A very great sensation has been, natu-
rally, produced by this unexpected bomb
shell among the malignants.
The principal Southerners in the city
were, to- day, called to conference at the
White House, for the purpose OF discussiD 8
propositions for a plan of compromise be-
tween the President and Congress.
Several suggestions of interest have been
made on both sides; but nothing has, as
yet, been positively agreed on. -.--..
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-Henry St. Marie
who betrayed Surratt, is here. Nothing
has been heard from Surratt. The passage
is considered long one to this time.
WASHINGTON, Feb. l6.-The caucus COM
mittee has prepared bill combining the
Stevens and Eliot bills, and making it ap-
plicable to all the States. 1t is supposed
this bill will pass tonight.
Two and quarter millions were appro-
priated for the revenue cutter service.
Four millions eight hundred thousand
dollars were appropriated for river and
harbor improvements. The South only
gets two hundred thousand for the i'm
provement Of the mouth Of the Mississippi.
The bill providing President in case OF
vacancy, passed. The first pro tenn. in
order shall be the President Of the Senate;
then the Speaker of the House; then the

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-the meeting last
night Of conservative Republicans, friends
of the President and prominent Southern
ers in the city, at Wizards, was merely
colloqulal. Nothing was determined on,
though the free exchange of opinion
seened to dispel the gloom somewhat
Other meetings will follow. The anxiety
regarding the immediate passage by the
Senate Of either bill is abating, though the
excitement and apprehension is still great.
The Louisiana bill was read a second
time in the Senate. Trumbull spoke
of several amendments. Wade said if
amended too far they would lose it. He
gave notice he would give the Senate no
rest when the bill came up till passed
Sumner was in favor of both bills, Stevens
and the Louisiana. He had amendments
to offer-one abolishing al. the DEGREES of
the courts since the secession ordinance.
Fessenden was in favor of both bills and
Blaine's amendment, which admits the
States on the adoption of the constitu-
tional amendment and impartial suffrage.
Wade consented to postpone action, and
the mendments were ordered to be printed.
Stevens bill came up, was read second
time and ordered to be printed.
The bill retiring the compound interest
notes was passed and goes to the House.
House-This body refused to concur in the
Senate's amendment of the tenure of office
bill, including cabinet officers, and com
mittee of conference was appointed.
/ CHARLEsToH, Feb. l4.-At the ami
versary banquet of the Chamber of Com
merce, Gov. Orr said the political relations
were grave. He had recently been in po-
sitlon to consult the controllers of the
Government in all frankness. 1t was
difficult to tell the future political situs-
ton. Several Southern gentlemen hoped
to secure the support of the conservative
Radicals, hence the scheme. In his judg-
ment if North Carolina and Arkansas
adopt the programme, and others adopt it,
or showed disposition to do so, it would

From the Natchitoches Times
THE MEMO RIAL RING.
BY NARY Z. BRYAN.

She stood beneath the full blaze
of the chandelier, for her beauty
could bear the test. In her simple
dress Of black Grape, with no orna-
ment 10 her abundant hair, she was
fairer and more queenly than any
beside in all that glittering throng Of
Summer butterflies. Why did she
always wear black, and clasp her
slender throat with no ornament save
the jet rosary and cross of pearls ?
No one knew, not even he, who was
her confessed, almost her accepted
lover. He stood near her now in his
handsome uniform of a Colonel of
the United States Army-proud of
the admiration she excited and watch
ing her with half adoring eyes as she
bowed to the numerous introductions
and compliments-graceful as the
fringe tree, when swept by the breeze.
Novelty and mystery lightened the
charm of her beauty. 1t was seldom
she mingled in the gayeties of the
place and season, her post being ever
at the side of her invalid father
and the reticence of her manner, her
sombre garb, no less than the strange
style of her beauty-made her the
cynosure of the watering place Ball.
room. Young men, satiated with
commonplace faces, raved about the
shadowy magnifcence of those faith
omless eyes and swore that her hand
was ike nothing on earth but the
half blown bud of the Lily of the
Valley.
Their homage was lost upon its
object. 1t did not disturb the calm
ness Of the beautiful eyes-the sweet
seriousness Of the chiseled mouth.
But, tonight it was rather too much.
A shade of annoyance crossed her
brow-quickly perceived by him,
who watched her every change of
expression. He approached, and an
swered her entreating glance, by
drawing her away from the crowd.
A few moments later, they stood
in the piazza of the Ocean House
watching the moonlight sleeping on
the gently heaving bosom of the Sea.
He laid his fingers lightly on the
white-gloved hand that rested on his
arm.
"Constance" he said. "Do you
forget you have not yet given me
assurance that l may claim this lit
tie hand as mine 2"
She did not blush and cast down
her eyes, as women are wont to do,
when pressed with such questions.
She turned to him and looked
steadfastly iuto his face-steadtastly
and anxiously, as though she were
weighing some grave matter in her
mind. Her eyes even took mourn
full, distracted look, as though
striving to pierce the shadows of

She turned away again, and lean.

and dizzy.

with tender reproach in his tones,
"aliow me to stay with You, until
you are fully recovered. Tell me
what does this mean
She shook her head mournfully,
"Another time" she murmured, "an.
other time" and again her white
hand signed him to depart.
Lie left her alone to the memories
that thronged upon her.
The next morning, a note was
placed in his hands.
"Forgive me" it ran. II have
done wrong unconsciously. l have
mistaken my own feelings. I can
never be your WIFE The dead
stands between us. May you be
blessed with a happier love than
mine. Goodbye forever
Constance Neville still wears her
mourning garb. Those who look
upon her haunting eyes and spirit
ual loneliness say that she is beauti-
full as the Immortals, but there is
that in her face which repels the
homage of passion. She will never
be an earthly bride-she will never
remove from her slender hand that

with her in her Coffin. B.

sidewalks in the vicinity Of Court
house Square and other portions Of
the city, demands serious atten'
ton at the hands of our corporation
officials. Several months since, the
Board of Selectmen passed an ordin-
ance requiring property holders within
certain limits, to commence repairing
their sidewalks after three days notice
being served upon them. All At
once, there was a considerable display
Of activity manifested by a good many
of the property holders, who set in
with vim to "mend their ways"
and much good was achieved in that
direction. The services Of all Of the
best workmen were brought into re-
QUESTION, and so hurried were some
of our citizens in their endeavors to
comply with the provisions Of the or.
dinance in the short space Of time al
loted them, that they were constrained
to employ both white and negro
botches who did their work in such
miserable style as to necessitate its
being done over again at no distant
day.
Numbers of our citizens were
doubtless unable, for the want OF
means, to undertake the task imposed
upon them by the ordinance, while
others, fully able, seemed to pass it
by UNDECIDED, and the city officials
after a spasmodic exercise of NUM-
cipal legislation on the subject, seem
also to have settled down into a con-
dition equally as needless.
By and by, the article of brick be-
came very scarce and very high.
The supplies previously obtainable at
the Peniteutiary became exhausted,
and monopolists raised the price from
eight dollars to the exorbitant figure
of fifteen dollars per thousand! This
places it out of the power of many
individuals who might feel disposed
to improve their sidewalks, to attend
to such matters just now, but we are
glad to be informed, that there is a
prospect soon for plentiful supply
of brick and at reasonable rates.
Whenever this indispensable material
can be procured within the bounds of
reason, it is to be hoped that neither
those parties who have proved delin-
quent in conforming to the provisions
of the paving ordinance or the city
authorities who enacted that ordinance,
will continue as remiss in their boun.
den duties towards one another and
the city welfare in such particulars,
as they have been. Before taking
leave Of this subject, we would take
occasion to allude to another which
comes in also for share Of attention
from our city or parochial authorizes,
as the case may be. 1t is that which
points to the Importance of having
