that upon fair election the Republican
party would have carried the State,
and had been cheated and hindered in
every way possible by tho power that

tion.''
Mr.. Trumbuil further says: "The fact
that the Lynch board undertook to
count in the Republican candidates as
elected without the semblance of an
official return before them, and i'll some
instances upon spurious forged and false
affidavits, as the evidence before the
committee shows, affords no evidence

is without Il government republican in
form.
It cannot be denied, now, even by
the warmest adherents of Mr.. Kellogg
In Congress, that, as to the government
set up by him, it is essentially un-re-
publican "a sheer usurpation. But,
ought the intervention Of the Federal
courts, by which this usurping govern
ment was brought into existence, to be
urged by coordinate branch OF the
Federal government as a reason for de-
claring that Louisiana is without re-
publican State government, and must
therefore be second time remanded
to territorial condition? Such pre-
tension will hardly go down, even in a
Republican Congress, because the con-
stitutional view leaves better avenue
Of escape through tho simple with
recognition Of the still vital part Of the
former State government; which, is all
sufficient to carry the State successfully
through its troubles, and leave no bad
precedent for Congress, or other States,
to BIO annoyed by hereafter.
II, however, the dominant party in
Congress wills it, new election we
must have, and it will then behoovc
our people to grid up their loins, aud,
protiting by their experience OF last
Fall, enter the canvass with a resolute
determination to carry the State. The
failure OF our enemy, witt, all the par
TALLY of tho Federal government on
his sido, to revolutionizeI Louisiana after
all his costly efforts and when 50 near
the coveted gonl, ought to stimulate tho
people to the greatest efforts. The ter
rible fate we have 80 narrowly escaped
by manly protest and persistent oppo-
sition, is something to encourage us to
greater cxcrtiols, il now election
shall be ordered. We did not deserve
SUCCESS in the first instance, If, in new
election, we shall fail to rc-atfirm our
sincere and firm adherence to what we
believed to havosbcen; and still to be;
TIE RIGHT.

The Buffalo on the Plains In Kansas.

Especial Correspondence N. y. World.
1t was my good fortune the other day
to witness the passage of herd Of
buffaloes, larger, perhaps, than any
seen for years past in Kansas. l was
then OH my way to the sfront, " that is,
to the extreme Western end of tho
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Rail-
road. AS a construction train carried
us, consisting OF nothing but flat cars,
we had Il perfect view Of all sides. The
prairie WAS perfectly level, and our
elevated positions on the piles Of lum-
Der and boxes, with which the car was
loaded, enabled us to see the slightest
moving object for miles around. We
had gradually been nearing what at
first seemed to be nothing but long,
wavy, black line moving in so,ltherly
direction, but as the miles flew rapidly
by-for we had made q late start and
were making up time-it assumed more
distinct proportions, and finally took
the shape OF an immense herd Of buffa-
10, packed together in so dense a mass
that their gait was no faster than that
Of man walking leisurely along.
Approaching to within 100 yards OF
the flank Of the column, the engine
whistled down brakes and we stopped.
a few old bulls, the ilankers OF the
herd, glarcu savagely at us as wo moved
slowly by them. One huge fellow, with
monstrnos head, nearly hidden under
masses OF thick, sand matted hair, we
thought would charge on us. His tail
curlcd like that Ola pig. He savagely
paved tho ground, and with head
lowered, finally moved toward tho To-
comotivc. The engineer, always ready
for Il little fun, purposely closed the
steam escape pipes so that no sound
could be heard. Suddenly, when the
shaggy monster drew himself up to
select the exact point for the attack,
tho valves were opened to their fullest
cxtent, the whistle sent forth n most
uncnrthiy screech, tho bell violently
rung, and cloud Of smoke went up
through tho smol<cstack. Tho effect
was indescribabie. Down went tho
buffalo on his Launches, literally scared
OIL his foot, and into such Il maze Of be-
Wildcrmcnt did no seem to have been
thrown, that before he could recover
himself one of the track layers had had
time to approach sufficiently ncnr 10
give him fatal shot. Il great many
buffa1ocs were killcSt during tho hour
1t took the herd to pass. 1t was only
necessary to fro II gun in the direction
OF tho mass to secure u victim, for IL not
killed outright the wounded victim
was quickly tramplci under foot by
his myriad companions. How many
buffalo passed over the line Of rail in
this herd 1t was impossible to estimate.
Tho herd itself was at least ton miles
long and two wide, aud must have
millions.

m>soncrs appointed to use TT in the bourdar,
line between Maryland AID vrginin, MAKE.
a large closely prin ed volume Of ia pages It
contains statement on the rarf of hr commi
sior crs of Maryland in behalf Of Inc claims If
that State and also statement on The art ot
the commissioners of Virginia 10 behalf Of the
claims If this Commonwealth. These cnpfir-
ing claims, much talked OF and little understood
are stated as follows:
Maryland claims to the south bank of the
Potomac to Smiths Point; thence to Cedar
Straits on the eastern shore Of the Chcsapcakr
bay thence up the Pocomokc river to where
what is called the Calvert and Scarborough
line crosses that river; thence by said line to the
Atlantic ocean.
Virginia claims to the north bank of the
Potomac to the extreme southern angle Of
Point Lookout; thelicc by right line to the
EXTREMIST part Of the westermost angle Of
Warkin's Point, at the north hradland of Lii
tie Annancsscx river. and thence by the Calv,u

according to the line rua in 1868 bv the CON.
mis- toner's on the part Of the two colonies. tuIy
and finally conf med ly both Lord Bultimor,.
and the royal province OF Virginia.
The commissioners have not yet agreed upon
