The man who will not register and
vote, ought never to complain of high
taxes, or other abuses Of government
powers, When he learns to perforn,
the duties of a citizen then he will
have some right to complain of bad

duty he is morally responsible in part
for the very wrongs which he de-

A lively exchange Of shots between
Messrs. s. Leaveck and /. y. Moore
disturbed the usual quiet of Thibo-
daux last Thursday evening. The
difficulty originated in some re-
marks made by Moore (who is a law
yer) in open court, in defence of a
client, which Leaveck thought de-
rogatory to his character; accordingly
stationing himself near Moore's resi-
dence, as soon as that gentleman
made his appearance he opened fire,
which was promptly returned, Lea
week shooting eight times, Moore
twice. The noise attracting the at
tention Of the Sheriff, lie fastened to
the scene and succeeded in arresting
both gentlemen in time to prevent
bloodshed.

I'VE shall soon see how much of n
prophet Horace Greeley is. He said,
before the recent elections, that the
only New England States that could
be counted upon to give majorities for
the Liberal candidates are New
Hampshire and Connecticut. Per-
haps this should cool the ardor
Of the Grant journals that are now
going into ecstacies over tho Maine
and Vermont elections. They have
resulted just as the Liberal leaders
anticipated, or rather more favorably
than was expected, SO We really can't
see why the Administration papers
should make SO much fuss over them.
But then we will not grudge them the
pleasure, as it appears to be to them,
for they will be fea1ful1y cast down
soon enough, poor things.

The Alabama Claims, which have
50 long teen a cause Of unpleasant
difference and understanding be-
tween this country and Great Britain,
at times even threatening to provoke
a war between the nations, may now
be considered definitely settled, and
there is no doubt but q large majority
Of the people Of both countries will
rejoice greatly thereat. Telegraphic
dispatches announce that the Geneva
Board Of Arbitration has completed it's
labors and agreed upon an adjust
ment Of the matter under their con-
sideration which will be satisfactory
to their respective Governments. The
text of the decision of the Board is
too lengthy to admit Of publication
in our columns this week, at least,
but the gist Of it is that the United
States has been awarded 315, 500, 900
in gold, to be paid by England in full
settlement for the damage done BY the
Alabama and other Confederate ves-y
sells fitted out in English ports. Now
that this, so to. speak, long standing
quarrel between America and England
has been brought to close in a
manner agreeable to both powers, we
can afford to forget the ridiculous
blunders made by the present Admin
istration Of our government, which,
made us appear in the light Of DULLES
trying to scare England into paying
more than was really due us, and like
towards sneaking out of our position
when we found that she was not to be
brow beaten into REIMBURSEMENT of |
rights or self respect. We are all
heartily glad that the long mooted
Alabama claims are at last settled.

Governor at once saw through the

evening on the lightning train Of the

suit of Pinchback, who had twenty
four hours start. The Governor
opened telegraphic communication all
along the line of the road, and was
continually informed of the where
abouts and progress of his astute and
ambitious Lieutenant, who was on
his way to usurp the functions of his
superior officer, blissfully unconscious
that that dignitary was in hot pursuit
and gaining upon him rapidly. When
the Governor arrived at Columbus,
Pinchback was but twelve hours
ahead; at Louisville, still 900 miles
ahead. From this latter. point the
Governor telegraphed to Humboldt
or the railroad authorities to have a
special trsia ready, and upon his srri-
