All this is very pretty talk, but very
little cider. We can state to Kendall's
friends in St. Landry, that on the very
day that said Kendall was turned out
of The Harris House, where the Parish
of Rapides had been paying his board
and lodging, he signed said document,
but unfortunately did not stick to. it
over three hours; his Democracy soon
fzzled out and found him on the Radi-
cal hastings full fedged, making a
speech so-called, notat all in accord
ance with his pledgt renouncing call
allegiance with the T krty known as the
Radical Republican Party" And again
on the 25th ult. in the Radical layout
near Congo Church, did he make anoth-
er effort in behalf of she Jacobins. We
merely, notice this little indiscretion OF
Kendalps as a warnitg to "my friends
in St. Landry"

Registration Order.

Below will be found an important
order relating to registration in this
State 1t will, no doubt, have a very
considerable effect, in preventing
fraud. The New Orleans Crescent
says that after the farce OF revision
was performed in that State, under
Gen. Sheridan's ORDERS no one knew
whether his name had been stricken
from the registry or not, and it is
supposed that twenty five thousand
names of white voters in the city
of New Orleans were thus taken
from the list for tho purpose of en-
abling the radicals to carry the elec-
ton. In Mississippi and some other
States, the total number ofregistcr-
ed votes was not known until after
the election had taken place; and in
several after it was supposed the
Convention had been defeated, q
military order found some grounds
t o r declaring it successful-t h Q
whole thing having been kept
among the secrets of the party:

Also, when it can be done in time
for general distribution throughout

In counties where there is no

have no place in our Jurisprudence.
Enternal glory to the soldier who

FROM ALAsKA.-A late Sitka lot
ter gives an account of the progress
in settling that country. The inter-
ference of the authorities with the
custom of the Indians have created
discomfort among them, and, not
withstanding h winter season,
many strange Indians are appearing
and disappearing, Some come from
Victoria and others from Simpson,
but for what purpose is not known.
1t is expected that as the Russians
remove and the population becomes
Americanized affairs will change,
for the better.
In con equence of the exorbitant
prices demanded for game, which is
principally disposed of by the In
dams surrespitiously for liquor,
General Davis has issued an order
that whatever articles of provisions
the Indians wished TO sell must be
exposed in the market place. Many
of the Indians are often detected
violating this order and are arrested
and tho liquor confscated. Il Q
whole tribe then assemble at head
quarters and demand the release of
the prisoners and if refused they
hold council of war at the lodge
of their chief and make savage
threats at the whites
The continuous rains have given
place to snow and hail storms,
which last several days at q time.
The thermometeriis now ten degrees
below freezing point. The unfavor
able weather has prevented the pro-
gress of the city improvements de-
signed by the engineer, but some
buildings are being erected.
A billiard saloon, restaurants and
pawnbroker's shop are opened.
A number Of burglaries have been
noticed, and brutal fights are not
unfrequent-
The ship SANTA. with a cargo of
furs. for London, aod two hundred
passengers, sailed on December IL.
Solemn mass was celebrated on
board before sailing, and Gen.

twenty-one guns to be fred.
