] have seen an address, to you in
which John w, Todd announces him
self a1independenS Democratic eandi
date forthe State Senate, on the ground
that the regular nominee of the Demo-
cratic Party is in favor Of closing Will
low Chute; thereby ijuring the navi-
cation of Lake Bisteneau, and that he
does not reflect the will of the people
of the District. In short, he says was
nominated in the interest of persons
DESTROYS Of closing Willow Chute. In
reply, assert that not q man who cast
vote in that Convention was. for a
moment influenced by q thought of
Hillow Chute. ~ I''7 y
At the time of my nomination propo-
sails for bids had been accepted, and
The work adiudieated to P. J. Kennedy,
large levy contractor of the State.
Twill here say my connection with
Willow Chute has arisen from little
pleasantly used to neignbor who is
n1ch interested in the matter. aud that
/ am in no manner personally or pecu-
niarily benefited by its being closed.
and that majority of those citizens of
Bossier Parish who urged my nomina-
ton are Indifferent, if not opposed, to
the closing of said Bayou.
The closing of it is the work of the
Board Of Public Works." for which
cannot be expected so be responsible;
and my power to close or prevent being
closed is no greater than Mr.. Todd's,
as it will be done before the meeting
of the next Legislature.
/ do not pretend to say that it will
or will not injure the navigation of
Lake Bisteneau bat l do sag that am
not pledged. to, nor interested in, the
closing thereof, any statement to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
Why does Mr.. Todd make the clos
ing of Willow Chute pretext for play
ing into the hands of the Radical Par
tyl If he is honest in the matter he
should be satisfied with this explana-
ton and Withdraw. However, | have no
expectation that he will do this, for,
if rumor be true. certain Radical infu-
ences had more to do with his candida.
cy than his assumption that | was in
favor Of closing Willow Chute.
[ wish to say to my fellow citizens
of this District, that, as the Regular
Democratic Candidate for the State
Senate, expected opposition--not on
the ground pretended-but tlat | am
an unconpromising opponent OF Radi-
calism. Every effort should be made
at this election, by all true lovers of
the States interest to send a Demo
cratic representation to the State Leg
islature; and the way to do so is to
give your undivided support to men
untainted with Radiealism I am only
pledged to economy and retrenchment
in State expenses, and viii act with
the Democratic party for the further
anoe Of the best interests of the State.
Stand in line! Vote the Straight
Democratic Ticket! He who is not
for US is against US

him IN that paper, and which have also

TO THE EDITORS or THE REGISTER, CnL.
LIcoTHE, O,:-Herewith | send you the al
tidayits Of three persons with reference to
the matter OF Ella Powell, and to show the
ialsity OF statements made through your
paper at the instance Of those who seemed
animated with a desire to do me great in
justice.
You have published various rumors,
and, intentionally or upintentionally, |
made various statements with reference 10
facts, or whatyou published for facts, which
are notaccorcIng tothe truth to one OF which
statements | desire to call your attention,
that you may, so far as you can, repair
whatever damage you may have done. In
one Of your notices Of the proceedings be-
fore Judge Wake, you say, in substance,
that 1t was at my request and upoL my
application that the hearing of the case
was continued for the purpose of obtaining
witnesses from Fayette county when in
fact 1t was on the application of Mr.. Wal
lace, as the attorney for Mrs. billiard, and
upon her sworn statement made to Judge
Wake at the time, that said Ella Powell
was OF uns0und mind and restrained by
me in consequence, and that by having
the case continued she would be able to
procure the attendance of witnesses from {
Fayette County, by whom she could prove
lhe truth Of her statement; and that one
Jermiah Shelton, who lived in Fayette /
county, was tho man from whom she
earned the deplorable facts and treatment
If said Ella Powell, and that she, Mrs. /;
1illard, desired his attendance for that !
purpose. Mr. Shelton, fer reasons abund-
.ntly satisfactory TO himself no doubt,
allied to put in appearance on the day set '
or hearing. T
ask as a simple act of justice in the
'remises, that you should publish the ac. s
atlidavits, and do not intend
o pay any further attention to what may
e said orpublished with reference to this 7
isagreeabe, corrupt and falsified subject.
icing conscious of the reetitude of my c
onduct at all times toward the unlortu- ii
ate subject of all the bllingsgate hither :,
} morbidly seized upon by the papers and Il
heir readers, l desire forever to dismiss n
he matter with the sworn statements of
lose who know of their own knowledge q
ow false the statements hitherto publish .,
