NEW DIRK, March J.
A New Orleans dispatch says that the
leading Republicans and the fusion Leg
stature have compromised on the basis
of the census of 1870, subject to ratif-
cation, as follows
The plurality to have the first choice
for Governor and the minority the sec
ond choice for Lieutenant Governor.
On this basis kellogg will be Governor
of the State and Penn Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor.
The Senate is to be composed of fif-
teen members. The seating of Senators
shall be subject TO the following con
ditions In districts having a majority
of white population, the fusionist candi-
date is to be seated and in districts hav-
ing a larger colorod population, Repub-
licans to be entitled to seats.
The House will he organized and com
posed, first Of those whose elections are
undisputcd second, from this the dis
puted districts and parishes, where only
one representative is sent to the legisla-
turc, the seat is given to a fusionist or a re-
publican, as the caucus shows a prepon-
derance of white or colored population :;
third, in those districts or parishes dis
puted and having more than one repre-
sentative, it shall be divided, the repub-
licans giving the odds to the fusionists,
or vice versa, as the census shows white
or colored majority. Also, in selecting
this third class they shall take those
standing the highest on the respective
tickets.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 8.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 8.
A dispatch, received from Fairchild's
rancho, via Yreka, says that Elijah
Steele left that place, yesterday morn
ing, with instructions from the peace
commissioners to offer the Modocs the
following terms as basis of peace:
First-To surrender as prisoners of
war to Gen. Candy, and to receive full
amnesty for the past.
Second To be removed to Angel
Island, and there to be clothed, fed and
sheltered as soldiers are, until a perma-
nent home in some warmer country may
be found, perhaps Arizona.
Third-To be clothed, fed and shelf
cred in their new home, until such time
as they will be able to maintain them
selves, their women and children to re-
ceive transportation to Angel Island and,
thence, to their new home.
Fourth-Gen. Candy is of the opinion
that he can promise Capt. Jack and some
of his head men permission to visit the
President.
An interview in the evening with the
Indians was very unsatisfactory.
Schonsches was quite hostile in his man
ner. The speech of Capt. Jack was pa
cific. Sixty-nine warriors were present
at the counsel, over twenty of whom
were strangers to Mr.. Steele.
After the council, Scarfaced Charlie
took Mr.. Steele to sleep in his CHARLES
bed as there was danger of his safety,
and he would look out for him. Char
lie sat up all night. In the morning,
CAPTAIN Jack was decorated with war
rior's hat, as was Schonsches, who was
the chief speaker, and who was quite
vicious in his tone and manner. After
he had done, Captain Jack made a war
speech and the warriors hat was removed
from his head, Twenty-three warriors
only were present at the morning coun-
Gil. Captain Jack and SchOnsches
claimed that these were all the warriors
they had, not thinking that they had
been counted the evening before. They
finally proposed that, if they could be
left in the lower beds and the past be
forgotten, they would makepeace They
wanted Messrs. Meacham and Apologize
to come to them, tomorrow, 10 shake
hands and conlude peace. 1t is quite
evident that they intended treachery to
these men. They did not want commits
sioners Roseborough or Case to come to
the lava beds, but said that they could
come if they pleased. Scarfaced Char
lie wanted to settle the matter and get
away. He behaved like white man.
This is all the commissioners will allow
Mr.. Steele to make public at present.
1t is thought that outside parties have
been disappearing things to the Indi-
ans. who came out a few days since.

vote indicates that our information was
correct. Now while we do not wish to
NEEDLE with the affairs of our neighbors,
we do feel an interest in the general well
fare OF the party and hope some means
may be devised to heal the differences
which have arisen among our friends in
Burlington, that they may be able, in
the future, to bring out their whole
strength. 1t will not do, always, to
ignore claim which, perhaps, for the
time, has not the power to assert itself,
as such action always results in weaken
ing the party. Compromise, in almost
every case can be used to good effect,
and we sincerely hope that its use may
befully understood and abundantly prac-
ticed in Burlington before another cleo

precisely as it did before, the secretary
claiming the right to issue the whole
amount whenever it shall be necessary.

BIGAMY.-It is stated that there was a
second marriage in the town of Bird
port, lately, which the officiating clergy
man did not report. 1t is said he was
requested not to do so. This second
wedding was neither wooden, nor crys-
tai, nor silver, nor golden. The license
was regular and the ceremony was regu-
lar, but the marriage was irregular. The
happy bridegroom was too much mar
ried that's all.
