The irrepressible Louisiana question mas
early made its appearance in Congress. Inc
House yesterday did its best to dispose OF the
affair in an ofl-hand way, Messrs. Sheldon ana
Sypher being admitted to seats without rel
erence to the usual Committee. There are
two sets of contestants, with several SUD
divisions These represent the Warmoth ad-
ministration and that of Pinchback ana hei-
logg. On the argument that fraud was behind
the Warmoth certificates, the House admitted
Svpher and Sheldon of the Pinchback Kellogg
contestants, though it was not denied that
fraud might also be behind their certificates.
The honest and usual way would have been
to refer all the cases to the COMMITTED VI
Elections; but the Administration Leader III
the House, considering that possession Is nine
points gained, pressed and secured the seats
for the two Pinchback- Kellogg Reprcsenla-
tiyes. Let MS see what will be done with Mr.
Pinchback, who claims seat III the House
and one in the Senate.
Our special dispatches from Havana show
that public opinion is much more quiet and
rational there than could have been expected
after the unrestrained rejoicing which fol-
lowed the capture of the Vir2inius and the
massacre of her prisoners 1t seems that all
reason has not rs yet departed from the
Peninsulars of Cuba, and that they have
still sense enough TO see that rebellion
against the orders of Spain, which would
bring down upon them the entire power OF
the United States, would inevitably lose them
the Island. The surrender Of the Virginius
will undoubtedly be a bitter trial to the
Spanish Club, but they can better endure this
than absolute ruin. Gen. Jovellar still appears
confident that he can execute any orders he
receives, and this eQpfdense indicates great
and sanitary change in the relations
of the Government and the Volunteers,
since the time when Dulce was sent
home in disgrace, and Nalmaseda covered
before the crazy mob which shot the
school-boys. 1t is pleasing, also, to know that
the earlier accounts of the slaughter at San
tago were grossly exaggerated, as there are
now reported as in prison there 1O1 Of the
Virginius captives awaiting tho demand OF
our authorities Their release, we presume,
will be promptly effected, and there is now
reason to hope that the whole affair may be
honorably concluded without further blood
shed. For this contamination our acknowl-
edgments should be equally divided between
our own Government for its judicious lilmness
and moderation, and the Castelar, Cabinet for
its unflinching honor and courage in daring to
concede Just claim in the face Of powerful
prejudice.

to Congress TO take immediate measures for
the resumption of specie payments. This con-
clusion was not reached without considerable
discussion and the report of the proceedings,

The President and Secretary Of the Treas
ury. as a Wal-Street broker yesterday pithily
expressed it, look one way and row another.
The talk against imitation, and in favor OF
specie payments, amounts TO little when the
recommendations are IN favor OF imitation, and
put specie payments further of than ever
We must, therefore, chronicle the beginning
of what we greatly fear is to prove another
era of disastrous speculation and inflated
values.

curious story comes to uS across the ocean OF .
shapeless bundle Of rags found recently in
in the South African colony of Natal. 1t proved to
be one of the missing balloons which fioated out of
Paris during the siege with freight of letters and
dispatches--Orders from the Government OF Ma
tional Defense TO its generals in the field. and
messages of love and cheer of sorrow and complaint
from the suffering citizens to their friends outside If
the Government had no better way than this Of reach
ing its commanders it is perhaps not surprising that
the military operations Of France occasionally lacked
consistency. II has been suggested that the contents
of this aerial mail may have IN important bearing
upon the trial Of Bazaine but question which will
interest the public far more than the purport OF the
letters is how the balloon should have found Its
way from France to the southern extremity of
Africa. Natal is over 5000 miles from Paris in d.
rection almost due south. We should like to know

Steamboat South Western arrived this
afternoon bringing stirring news from
Grant Parish. The whites have retaken
EHtaX aud there is not negro TO be found
for miles around. Passengers say that the
negroes had strongly intrenched them
selves in the Court House and built breast
work, } or feet high. There were it is
said, about 400 men armed and equipped
thoroughly. On sunday about y O'Clock
some 80 men gathered from the surround
ing parishes and made an attack on the
breastworks, and brisk fight was kept up
until somewhere near 3 O'Clock. The
haca>tworks were then stormed and cap
tured, the negroes taking refuge in the
Court House, the doors of which were bar
ricaded. The captain of the North West
era makes the following statement We
arrived at Coliax on Sunday eve about
o'clock and found the white people with
the Sheriff at their head. | suppose they
had captured the town after having had
conflict with the negroes. 1t was reported
To me that about 100 negroes had been
Killed and many wounded. We saw from
our boat about Is or so lying around on
the banks dead. One white man was re-
ported killed whose name did not learn
anu TWO very seriously wounded, Messrs
Hodu4t and Harris.
All the leaders of the riot escaped. The
