In the last several issues of that paper
paragraphs of a contemplate and ma
Iignant nature have appeared in the
Natchitoches Times, purportly to elicit
from us a political discussion, but really
Judging from the persistent efforts
and tenor of which-to involve MS in
personal controversy; for, it seems,
no other than selfish motives. We have
submitted to these studied and repeated
personal affronts in silence-preferring
rather to pass them by with the con-
tempt which they deserve, than parade
personal matters before a disinterested
public, and would not even now conde-
scend to notice the foul and untruthful
installations of the Times, but in self
defence-to place ourself right before
the public; as, evidently, their intention
was that of wilful misrepresentation
placing us in an improper light, with the
view of injuring, if possible, our polti-
cal and social standing in this commun-
ity. When the editors of the Times
assert that we s'attempted to defend our
Radical friends,'' ETC., ''waft grateful
incense" for past patronage. that we
intended wholesale puff" and even
intimate, as they do, that we have any
affiliations or sympathies with the Radi-
cal party, whatever, they utter an I'M
mitigated falsehood, as libelous and un-
called for as it is unprofessional and
ungentlemanly.
No further notice of the matter will
be made in this paper. Discussion is
as far as we are commemorate an end

might afford to lecture for charitable

We learn, that after paying Mr.. Colfax
5000 and the other expenses, the gentle
men interested in tie Widows and Sin

sum of five dollars each, and had they
not done SO, these old ladies, for whose

brick of the avaricious, grasping dispo-
sition of this party of ''great moral
ideas.'' All their speakers, who come
to speak for their s'bleeding'' country, or
for charity, charged good round sums.

Trenton for his speech at Taylor Hall,
some say, 5000. Some of the Massa-
chusetts speakers actually sued the com
mittees of towns in New Jersey for their
services

How TO CONTEST THE ELECTION
Major Keller, assistant secretary for
civil affairs, writes as follows to Hon,
Chas. beaumont. judge fifth district
court:
l am instructed by the brevet major
general commanding to acknowledge
the receipt, on the Sd instant, of your
petition, without date, and in reply
thereto to- state that the order promul-
eating the result of the election Especial
orders No. 121, current series from these
headquarters), provides the manner in
which cases of contested election shall
be determined.
l am further instructed to transmit to
you herewith copy of circular 10, cur
rent series from this Office, directing that
the ballot-bo be transferred for safe
keeping to the sheriff. The instructions
to the sheriff require him to permit the
ballots in the boxes thus in his posses
sion to be examined and recounted, upon
presentation of an order from a court OF
other tribunal of competent jurisdiction
before which such case may be pend
ing. Your petition states, Petitioner
valves none of his rights to contest the
election of said A. Viavant should the
count of the votes made by him as above
stated be found to correspond with your
so called official returns"
The commanding general, therefore,
suggests that you apply at once to the
proper court for the order, asked in your
petition of him.

On the I'd instant, Gen. Buchanan is
sued an order announcing the result of
the recent election in this State, naming
the first Monday in November as the day
when the newly elected shall be in
stalled, and providing that the Legisla-
ture should not convene until official no.
'tice was received at department head
quarters of the acceptance of the new
Constitution by Congress. On the 9th
instant, one Mr.. Packard, Chairman of
the Board of Registration, issued pro-
clamation calling upon the newly elected
to take their seats on Monday, June
14th, and the Legislature to assemble
the following Monday, ODD inst. In con-
sequence of which, he was arrested by
the commanding general. On the 9th
inst. another proclamation appeared,
signed by Mr.. G.. NJ. Wickliffe, State
Treasurer elect, as Chairman, pro tenn,
and the remaining members of the
Board, assuming, that they were equally
responsible, with Mr. Packard, for the
issuance of the aforesaid proclamation,
and denouncing the said act of General
Buchanan as s'unauthorized, illegal and
high-handed outrage upon the loyal
people of the State" whereupon, they
were, also, arrested. But while at head
quarters, the district commander re-
ceived a dispatch from General Grant,
Suggesting" suspension in the arrest
and trial of Mr.. Packard until definite
action was had on the bill pending In
Congress for the admission of Louisiana.
Consequently, they were all released,
being informed, at the same time, by the
general commanding, that should the
bill fail to become a law, they would be
re-arrested and held for trial by mill
tary commission.

Army to say to you that the subject of

would be in violation of the recOnstruc-

fed by behOlding, in the courtroom OF
the town in which he lives, four lawyers
reading from one Bible. Two were sit

them, the other two looking over their
shoulders. The attitude and expression
of the group were such as to inspire the
beholder with the belief that they had
never seen the book before.
