Curiosity was piqued to learn what Jo-
sephiDe Mansfield might have to say about
Judge Barnard. This fact seems to have
been sufficient, yesterday. to fill the hall
where the Court of impeachment holds its
sittings at Saratoga The evidence only
shows what everybody knows-that Fisk and
Barnard were intimate friends; that the
Judge received gifts from the Erie brigand !;
named one of his children for him, and was
generally his comrade and crony. The fact
that President Grant had accepted one style
of Fisk's hospitalities was brought out by
MansfeldS testimony, but it does not appear
that that can help the case at all. People
have their own private opinions of the stand
ing and affiliations of the men whom Mans
field characterizes as " the most distinguished
"men of New-York; :" and Judge Barnards
association with Mansfeld's guests, now
established, is a point gained by the prosecu-
ton Erie and Erie litigation formed the sta
pie of the testimony brought forward yester-
day, and, the Mansfield episode over, the
Court went on with the dull routine of bring
ing home to Barnard loose, irregular, and
generally disreputable conduct therein.

The Ner- York Times yesterday, contrived to print
a little less than one narrow column OF Senator
Sohurz's address at St. Louis one Of the most mas
terly discussions yet drawn out on either
side in this canvass. or in any canvass
in the political history OF the country.

A strange story of Spanish insolence and
American official subserviency comes to us
from the State Department. The sum of it Is
that one Buenaventura Perada, who is reputed
to have been deserter from the Spanish army
in Cuba fled TO San Francisco with large
amount of money in gold and bills, taken from
the military chest of the organization to which
he had been attached. He was pursued and
arrested by San Francisco detectives and COM
PEELED to give up his booty, under pressure
brought by the Spanish Consul at San Francisco
and the Chief OF Police of that city. The

President Theirs has won substantial vic

chapter of the bill taxing raw materials by a
vote of 317 to 233. 1t was only the other day
that NJ. Theirs, who had said that unless
this chapter, which taxes textiles, was
adopted, he should be obliged to adopt more
uppopular forms of taxation, was snubbed by
the Right. His triumph, therefore, is now
more marked.

So it seems that the Rebel archives, pur-
chased by the Government for $4,000, are to
be published as a campaign document by the
Grant party. There has been already great
deal of history writing at public expense, of
which the most shining example is Mr.. Badeau's
use of War Department records and clerks in
making his eminent work. But this rare and
curious publication is new attempt "to fire
"the Northern heart" for the net sum of
$4,000. The slender pretext that the purchase
of the documents was made so that the trea-
son of Rebel claimants for damages from the
Government might be exposed disappears. 1t
is intended to reopen the old sore again we
are to have the city burning, the well-poison-
ing and the contagion- spreading business all
retold, for fear people might forget there had
been a war, and make up their minds to live
at peace with their countrymen. Is this worth
whileq Must these dead-and-gone quarrels be
revived everastingly that demagogues may
thriveY

TEE LEGISLATURE.

4 bold stroke Of violence on a small
scale was attempted Yesterday in the
House by the faction headed by Speaker
Carter and United States Marshal Packard.
The proceedings Of the previous day in
the House had clearly demonstrated that
the Republicans could muster a sufficient
vote to overcome the vote Of renegade
Republicans aud Democrats combined.
This so startled the Carterites, the Casey
ties and the Packardites that they deter
mined TO play little French game on the
American people. These Solons of the
Customhouse determined that comp
d etat was the only thing that could save
them in their present dire emergency.
They knew that this little game had
proved successful in more cases than
one in France, and they had the weakness
to suppose it could be played successfully
on that portion Of TIE American people
residing i'll Louisiana. The Republican
majority in the House had to be overcome,
and the revOlutiOni5ts. carrying out the
Jesuitical doctrine that 1.-The end justifes
the means, pertetrated one of the most
damnaDle OutTages-Ou a small scale
that was ever attempted in a free country.
In order to break the Republican MAORI
ty in the House, DR.. I. Schumacher,
Harry II. Stevens, II. L, kearson and
Joseph ?. Wilson were induced to 90 be-
fore f. \. Wooltley, United States COM
missioner, and make an affidavit cLarg-
ing q large number Of Republicans
among them lie Governor and Lieutenant
Governor and many Republican mem
bcrs of the Housewife having ''made
an unlawful combination and conspiracy
in the State Of louisiana, of secret
character, for the purpose of obstructins
and hinderng the execution Of TIE laws
of this State and Of the United States.
Ga the strength Of tLis affidavit, falsely
sworn to, many members OF the Legisla-
ture were arrested just at the time when
the General Assembly was required to
meet, and taken to the Customhouse,
where United States Commits oioner Wool
fey keeps his Office. In tie meantime,
the CartoritCs, and few Republicans who
did not understand the infamous outrage
tLat had been played Oh the person of
many Republican members, had assem-
bled in the House. 4 few minutes before

rHE NEW SPEAKER.

nrominent figure, for the sturdy
,,oobood which marked his course, hao
bAon Hon, O. II. Brewster, representative
Of II 10 wealthy and intelligent people OF
the parish of Ouachita Elected 10 'ne
General Assembly in 1868, he was con
tinued in place at the election OF lo'o'
and has been ever faithful and earnest
oayocote of the rights and interests OF his
constituents.
His election yesterday by the unanl-
nous voice Of the House was deserved
compliment to his honesty, falr-nindeo-
ness and faithfulness to friends, ana Tue
Sneakers remarks evidence his high ap-
rreciation of the honor conferred SO I'M
expectedly and spontaneously upon him.
His pledge to the House to so administer
his Office as to secure the strlctest econo-
nv, and his determination to leave no
effort unexerted to obtain the reforms
demanded by popular sentiment, were
expressed in manner that proved MS
sincerity, and the hearty applause which
these promises elected showed that the
Republican House would nobly second
him in adopting these much needed meas
ures.
With this glorious victory for the State
administration and the Republican party,
a bright era of peace and prosperity, we
believe, is dawning upon Louisiana.

GENERAL EMORY.

We had occasion to remark, when first the
Customhouse organ threatened to coerce,
with United States troops, the Republican
party into retaining renegade in the
Speakership of the House, that We had
personal knowledge that the commander
OF this department was not only brave
soldier and earnest patriot, but a prudent
and law-abiding citizen. We are more
than confirmed in our opinion by the
course of this veteran when demands were
made upon him to support the infamous
conspiracy against the State government
which illuminated yesterday. We have
good grounds for assuring the citizens of
New Orleans that General Emory will in
tertere only when requested to do so bv
the proper authorities, which will only be
when the power of the State is exhausted.
There will be no clash Of authority between
the State authority and the Union
soldiers.

ALL FOR TEE DEAR PEOPLE.

1t has been a subject Of general remark
that the Times has surpassed itself in
violence and invective against the Cover
nor and Republican party during the
progress of the attempted revolution by
the Customhouse faction and their allies.
There was fire under this dense volume of
smoke, The street grid @O)cs yesterday
evening passed the word around with a
chuckle and snirk that betrayed their be-
lief that their discovery was a capital
joke.
The ardor of the Times is accounted for
By pledge given to c. A. Weed, its pub
Usher, that lie should receive the nOmina-
ton from the coalition for Governor.
Imagine the aristocratic Democracy of
Louisiana supporting Charley Weed for
the chief ,nagistracy Of the proud old
Pelican State.

THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY

ohl'ea States District Attorney J. Il.
Beckwith has informed Governor W armotb
that had he known Of the issuance of the
"rlts OF arrest yesterday, hewould have
directed that they be served so as in NO
way to interfere with the duties or n,i,.;
leges of the executive or members Of five
Assembly. AS the charge concoctad
amounted to SIMPLY misdemeanor, this
apparent conceaiment Of the scheme from
the government prosecuting officer proves
that political ends, and not those of JUS
tee were sought to be attained.
Mr. Beckwith has also inforaed his ex-
ceilency that the hearing will be fixed ot
some distant day, in order not to create
unnecessary confusion in State affairs
and that the accused need not attend
even Ii summoned, to-day.

THE WILDERNESS OUTRAGE.

The interference of the United States
Cus.omhouse officials in our domestic
politics, by receiving and OBTAINING on
board United States revenue cutter the
truant Senators, has been heretofore re-
garded and spoken Of chiefly from its
humorous standpoint 1t is, however,
but grim joke, portentous OF further
Entertainments of the same kind; and, as
such. can not be too severely rebuked.
To be sure, it is quite in keeping with the
seizure and appropriation of the Custom
house. last August, by the same faction;
but no repetition of wrong conduct can
make it right. The people are getting
tired of this thing; and if General Grant
does not know it, but continues to act as
if the government, its public buildings,
its army and its navy, are simply ma
chinery to perpetuate his power, and sub
serve the interests of his family, he will
be likely to make the discovery before
long. mention the President, because
it seems very unlikely that his representa-
tivcs would adopt so hiSh-handed a
measure rs to remove State servants out
of the reach of the State authority unless
assured of support by those whose
creatures they are The question at
issue between the Republican party proper
and the CustomLouse faction is in fact
not the organiza ton of the General As
sembly; not the repeal Of obnoxious laws,
nor the adoption of financial reforms, nor
does it relate to anything i'll which the
people Of the State are Immediately con-
cerned. 1t looks beyond all these and
outside them. Its eye is fixed on the Ma
tonal Nominating Convention, to take
place next summer. Its object is to Sc
cure the machinery of the State govern
ment; to FIX" Louisiana SO that she Will
ego right thai is, 90 for the re-nomina-
ton Of his excellency Ulysses the First.
To accomplish this the dignity of the
United States government is lowered by
the misrepresentation Of the Custom
house, and by Offering the shield of her
flag to a number of truant Senator'S who,
without that protection, would be COM
PEELED to submit to the laws and do the
work for which the State is now waiting,
and for the non-doing of which it will lave
to pay 1t can not be denied that the whole
affair is surrounded with an atmosphere
Of absurdity which, to many minds, so
overpowers its more serious features as to
turn the intended censure springing from
their lips into a broad laugh. But this IS
only with the inconsiderate. No thinking
man can contemplate this bastard coup
detat of the United States officials, except
with indignation, mingled With painful
forebodiugs of worse things to come.

CONSISTENCY DISREGARDED.

The coalition faction yesterday recon-
mended the expulsion of Messrs. La Sail
Mere and Mcfarland, on the ground that
they were not residents of their parish lSt
MARTINI at the time of their election. Mr..
Mcfarland was registrar of voters for his
parish for sixty days, and resigned three
days before the election. Mr.. La Sail
mere was clerk of registration and opened
the Office on the fifth of September. He
atso' resigned three days before the cleo
ton. The constitution requires a resi-
dence OF ten days in the parish. GEORGE
W. Carter was, also, sent to Cameron nor-
lSn as registrar of voters, which position
he held for forty days, and until after the
election. He did himself the hon,r 70
count his own votes, and return himself as
duly elected Representative.
There is inconsistency in the practice Of
men who reject Messrs. Mcfarland and Ia
Sahnlere, and choose Carter for tba;r
leader and Speaker under such circrn
stances

SOMETHING TO THINK OF

VIII each and every Republican mem
Der of the Legislature, no matter what
his color or his partialities may be, read
the New Orleans Times, and take counsel
with himself what he had better do? The
emergency is full of mischief to men who
do not seem to know that they are stand
ing on an edge over which enemies are
only waiting to cast them headlong. The
fury that has been held in check for four
years, even while some men who had SUI
fered from its former violence thought it
was dead, is alive to-day and full of devilish
intent. There is a disposition to do yio-
lence that can not be smothered so that
the attentive observer will not see it:
and this fearful spirit threatens every
Republican in the city Of New Or
leans The senseiess crowd that
takes its cue from the Times will not
stand upon the order of its proceeding
when it sallies forth to hunt for Boze and
to worry Bingo. There is no discrimina-
ton in the hatred which the Times
launches at the Radical party. 1t strikes
down all ; it hunts Burch with as much
venom as it searches after Barrett. As a
sample, we invite the attention of the Re-
publican members to the following para
graph, which is not more slanderous in its
insinuations than it is bloodthirsty in its
lnstigation. Let them read it to them
selves, and then let them read it in a eau
Gus after they have determined to settle
their differences III a way that Will give
the men who are working for a riot to I'M
derstand that the Republican party is still
strong enough to settle its own difficulties
without accommodating the Times with an
occasion to make merry over its destruc-
ton:

every corporation they could fasten their
tangs upon; having. in fine, exhausted every
fountain from which plumber could be
sucked, we now find them, with true brute
instinct, rending one another. This polit-
zeal evolution, it is to be hoped, will have
as happy result of Darwin's doctrine.
