NEW ORLEANS, SUNDAY M
ate such a panic that gentlemen would be
afraid to go outside their Own demesnes.
Both Catholics and Protestants had BEEN
inundated from voting. Shots had been !
fired into some houses. Lord Dunsanote's
tenants who had promised to vote for
Trench had been prevented. and LORD
Coughs tenants likewise. Lord .Deivin
bad been obliged to absent himself tronl
% from ne the altar Tue
gentry were hunted through tho fields ~
the fellows who followed that obscene
monster Pat Barrett. SirArthur Guinness
had been houndetb fighting his way at the
head of twenty seven men to vote at the
booths, and several of his men were also
tention of selling his property and quitting
the country, and the sale, had been made
since the commencement Of the trtal.
Sebastian Nolan, in a. letter to one or the
priests, said, if Captain Nolan was unseat-
ed he had another brother to put Forward
but Mr.,ydstiee Keogh would take care that
for seven long years the same machinery
should not be put In motion in that county.
and if that brother were elected the trial OF
the election petition which might follow
would not be 80 famons or SO long AZ this.
It had been reluctantly admitted by Mr.:
Bernard O'Flaherty, who was taken out of
his bed to give evidence, that Father
Cohen had said that priests weuld use the
| Confessional under the Ballot Bill, # neces
sary and the Ministers ana the Leg'sia-
ture ought to know this ayowal OF Father
Cohen. The denial given upon oath by
Father Leftas Of. his indecent observatiots
fu6orY Mfs. GriHaehs WAS proved TO be ado
tiiberate perjury, aud one Of the witnesses
| against him was y man who had oeen
called upon to vamp up the debaucneu
evidence of that priest. He should feel It
his duty to report every one OF the persons
he lad alluded to as having been guilty OF
clerical intimidation. As to the point IL
raised in favor of Captain Trench as to tile
serving OF notices of disqualification upon
The voters, he would reserve that for the
Court of Couimon Pleas, stating that every
preparation had been made and every
reasonable means used for serving them
until they were prevented by the agents OF
Cantain Nolan Neither on the ground OF
