Legislative Expenses Of 1S72.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
For some time the remaining unpaid
members and employees of the last Legis-
lature have been harrassed and delayed
from receiving their just and legal dues,
out of the seventy-fye thousand dollar APP
preparation made for their benefit, by the
vexatious harrassings of holders of the
Legislative vouchers of 1871, to the great in
jury and prejudice of the former. Now, in
the name of justice, it is about time it was
ceased.
The appropriation is no more for 1871
than it is for 1858. Act No % bears on its
face evidence of being for 1872, and that
alone, and when the concomitant eircum-
stances are taken into consideration the
case is made impregnable.
There is no court of justice in the world
that can honestly decide in favor of 1871
claims prior to the demand of 1872 being sat
isfed. And if any party or parties appeal
to the Supreme Court from the decision al
ready rendered in the Eighth DISTRICT
Court, it win only be for vexation and de-
lay, and without shadow of hope. The
law is very plain, and any unprejudiced
man can decide in moment which claims
have the preference, 1871 or 1872.

Letter from Ex-Governor AIOuton.


We reproduce the subjoined letter from
Ex-Governor Mouton to Ex-Governor He
bert:
lie CORAL May %, 1872.
MY DEAR Shiny opinions so fully ac-
cord with yours upon the political condition
OF our country that can not withhold my
thanks to you for the clear and fOrcible
manner in which you publicly express them.
1t gives me the hope that many who are
hesitating as to their course in the matter
will be convinced by the manly way in
which you put it to their reason and good
sense.
The time has passed when we of the
South can expect our "ideas" to prevail in
the government; but we owe it to ourselves
and our children not to lose the first Oppor-
tunity to get rid of the corrupt despotism
welded by a sordid tyrant.
Let us at least try to have our govern
ment 40 administered as to give security to
our personal rights, and our State placed
upon an equal footing with other States of
the Union.
Should General Grant be reelected, the
Southern States are doomed, and must be-
come a second Poland or Ireland. Such
result should be avoided by all possible
means.
Four years more of a government such as
we have had in our State and at Washing
ton will make of us paupers, labOring to
support the pampered miniOns OF an OdiOus
power.
am glad to see that my old friend Fer
gus Gardere moves also in the right dlrec-
ton. Very truly yours, -
r. a. C,, =, 1, ry.y,+

The public should bear in mind that the
annual commencement exercises of this
institution will take place Wednesday,
twenty-sixth of June, at P NJ.
The eloquent Father Ryan will deliver
the religious address on Sunday evening,
June %.
On account of the excessive heat OF the
season, all the exercises will come off at
night.
This will enable persons from the city,
desiring to attend, to leave in the morning
on the DonaldsoDville train, and to reach
Baton Rouge on the steamer st. Mary at 8
P. NJ. All the exercises connected with
the occasion of the commencement are ex
pected to be more than ordinarily interest
ing, and we trust there may be large at.
tendance of our most intelligent citizens.
Baton Rouge has now a fine hotel, with
sufficient accommodations for large COM
pany. Apart from the commencement ex-
ercises, the university itself, with its fine
library, museums, cabinets, etc., is well
worth trip to Baton Rouge.

In the case of ex-RecOrder Becker, pray
ing for an Injunction restraining the Sheriff
from Selling his property under judg-
ment obtained against him before justice
of the peace while he (Becker) was absent
in Europe, the court ordered the Injunction
to be maintained, but further ordered that
all proceedings in the case up to the re-
cOrding of the judgment be declared valid.
Becker asked for nullity of the judgment,
on the ground that there was no legal cita-
ton, inasmuch as although he had an agent
here to represent him, the Justice appoint
ed a curator dd hoe, who, it seems. waived
the right of appeal, and hence the attempt
ed seizure and the interference of his ex-
honor who returned from a foreign shore
just in the nick of time.
! Before Judge Emerson there is at present
a case involving a nice question touching
the right of vendor to claim a lien or
privilege on building for which he has
furnished material. II appears that plain
tiff in the case brought suit against the
builder and the owner of a house, and
claimed lien on the same on account for
material.
He was met by the owner, who answered
that he had already paid the builder the
full contract price, and should therefore be
discharged from further liability. Plain
tiff commended that, under article IVA, G..
c., he has privilege claim over all other
creditors, and furthermore, that the owner,
before he paid the builder in full, had due
notice of this claim. A decision in this case
will be of much interest to many.
Eighth District Court
In this court will come up tor decision a
very nice question touching the individual
or representative liability Of a party to a
suit on contract. A document in evidence,
being the contract relied on. bears the
party's signature, and directly underneath
appears the word "agent," but evidencing
at attempt at its erasure. The question is,
was the word agent written by the party
who signed his name, or was it not? A so
luton of the same will define the difference
between tweedledee and tweedledum.
