Nap0le0n's Proclamation.

Frenchmen-There arc events in the
life Of a people of solemn moment
when the national honor is violently
excited, which presses itself irrcsisti.
bly, and rises above all other interests
and applies itself with a single purpose
of directing the destinies of Il nation
One of those decisive hours has now ar
rived for France. E
Prussia, to whom we have given evil
dence during and since the war of 1866
of the most conciliatory dispositions
has held our good will of no account
and has returned our forebearancc by
encroachments. She has aroused dis
trust in all quarters, necessitatiDg OK.
aggorated ornaments, and has made OF
Europe camp where reigns dis4uiet
and fear of the morrow.
A final incident has disclosed the
instability of the international under
standing, and shown the gravity of the
situation. In the presence of her new
pretensions Prussia was made to TN
derstand our claims. They were eyad-
ed and followed with contemptuons
treatment. Our country manifested
profound displeasure at this action, and
quickly the war cry resoundcd from
one end of France to the other. There
remains for us nothing but to contide
our destinies to the chance of arms
| We do not make war upon Germany.
whose independence we respect.
we pledge ourselves that the people
composing the great Germanic nation.

TIMES. AS for us, VIC demand the cs-
Enlistment ola state of things guaran-
| tecing our security and assuring fol
the future. We wish to conqucre
durable peace, based on the true inter
ests of the people, and assist in abol-
ishing that precarious condition OF
things where all nations arc forced tc
employ their resources in aiming
against each other.
The glorious flag of Franco, which
We once more unfurl in the face of oul
challeugers, is the same which has
h2rue over Europe the civilizing ideas
of our great revolution. It represents
the same principles: it will inspire the
same devotion.
Frenchmen-Iu go to place myself al
the head of the valiant army which is
animated by tho love of country and &
devotion to duty. That army knows
is worth-more, it has seen victory

tors of the globe. take with me my

knows the duties his name imposes

Mr.. Charles L. Zimmerman, has
written to Mr.. Grogan, and his letter
lis appended hereto.
This is all the evidence yonr Attor-
ney has been able to obtain from out
side parties. Besides this the affidavit
of NJ. L, Grogan is hereto, annexed.
Now comes the difficult part for your
Attorney. He has been siiiigent in his
search. for information, which in his
opinion would satisfy aPetit Jury in
Court, of the correctness OF the claim,
and he cannot conscicntiously say That
the information he lays before you il,
unquestionably of such Il nature. He
must say though, that it is sufficient to
cntitie those gentlemen to great con-
sidcration at your hands, aud chat it
shows that they have IN equitable
claim against h G Parish for some
amount. He cannot say that a claim
for $4,000 has been proven by h G
statements of outside parties. The
aihdaylt OF NJ. l.. Grogan does supply
the proof wanting from others, and
with it the statements OF the above
gentlemen eorroborating it, your At
torney thinks the Court OF competent
jurisdiction would allow the claimants
something. How much it mnst remain
with your honorable body to say.
Respectfully Submitting the above
report. your Attorney leaves the mat
ter with this Jury.

can only say that That portion of the

that it was inadvisablc i'll so nall a

Tested in the work, and his uniform
poliIeucss and disregard of rouble and
pains in its completion. The contract
between he and your Attorney was for
fifty cents copy and five hundred
copies, in obedience TO the instruction
of your body. Your Attorney believes
that chat amount viii not more than
compensate him for the actual costs and
the labor of doing the work.
Your honorable body can give your
Attorney snch compensation for his la
Dor in the work as YOU may think he
has earned by the amount OF that labor

deems it fit to say, however, that he
has written what would be considera-
bly, over one hundred pages of foolscap
manuscript, and that it was laborious
searching for and collecting the mate
rails, besides his attention to the pub
lication of the work. u
The work is now before you aud you
can judge for yourselves what it is
worth. Being aware that no human
work is or can be perfect, your Attor-
ney does not claim any degree of per-
lection for this compilation, but on the
contrary knows that it is open to OBJ
lection in many points. He begs the
indulgence of your body for them,
which he is certain you will kindly
grant him.
Finally he desires to thank the Jury
for their tlattering confidence in his
| ability to perform the task, and leaves
it with them for their Judgment on it.

To the Honorable the Police Jury of the
Parish of RapideS:

To the Honorable the Police Jury of the
Parish of Rapides:
Gentlemen " our Attorney o
whom you referred the claims of Messrs
Grogan & Holt, against the Parish of
Rapides for widening certain dams so
that they could be used for the purpose
of road bridges, has the Honor to re-
port as follows:
He has found it to be difficult task
to arrive at satisfactory conclusion
in regard to the claim, from the evil
dence before him. He deems it advis-
able to lay before your Honorable,
body exactly the information he has
obtained.
Mr.. Joseph w. Texada states that he
was in the Police Jury in 1859, and re-
collects distinctly that there was a con-
tract between these gentlemen and the
Jury at that time, for the bridge ovel
Bayous Cotile and Bertrand, and that
work was done. He does not know
however, what compensation they were
to receive for the work.
Mr.. Joseph II. Hynson, who was in
the jury at the same time, recollects
something indistinctly about the con
tract, but does not remember anything
definitely about it. His statements
are neither in favor of OF against The
claim.
Mr.. Charles w. Boyce, who was il!
the Police Jury then, says that there
was Il contract between the Jury and
Messrs Grogan g. Holt for the bridges
claimed by them and that the work
was done, and lie thinks they were tc
