UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT.

United SfATES ClRCCIT COURT.
The grand jury of the Circuit Court Of
the United States addressed to his honor,
the judge or the district of Louisiana, the
following report on the evidence OF the
state'of affairs in the parish Of Grant:
NEW ORLEANS, April 26, 1873.
Hon. E. H. Durell, Judge of the United
States District Court:
The grand jury of the United States, in
and for this district, would respectfully
state that, after rs careful an examination
of the evidence at its disposal in the ma ter
of the Grant massacre rs could he had, con-
sidering the limited time, is Of the opinion
that while most unparalleled act of bar
barity has been undoubtedly committed by
some persons in the parish of Grant and
those parishe, adjacent thereto, still 1t Is
unable to arrive at any definite conclusion
as to who the parties were that engaged IN
this most shameful affair, and wOnld recon-
mend that the further investigation OF the
affair be continued To our successors.

Extremely Ttuchy.

As we Thought likely would be the case.
our article of last Saturday, headed The
Ball liz Motion, has created some dissatis-
faction enrong the quid nuncs of our party
who think that their judgment like the
Pope's, is infallible. We spoke in general
terms, and advised compromise more as a
matter ofpolicy than any thing else; how
ever, to show what others, even a colored
man thinks of the matter, we subjoin the
following editorial from the Grand Era,
published and edited in Baton Rouge, by
J. Henri Burch, one Of the ablest men of
his class in the State, and who has been al
ready influential in making acompromise in
that city. He refers to what the Republican
had to say about it, ard therefore it is use
less for us to reproduce it also. OF course
we had reference to parish officers alone,
as we don't see how it would be possible to
interfere with any others, and quoted the
example of Natchitocses, as the Republi-
can and Grand Era have done, with the same
spirit that animated those influential jour
nals

Peace ina .y'Uschtf0ches.

The New Oeleans Republican informs irs
readers that ADOPTING THE WISE POLICY
OF THE PEOPLE OF 4.ToN ROUGE" the pco-
pie of Natchitocbes, of both political par
ties, have mutually agreed upon list of
parochial officers. though their parish COM
mittees headed respectively by Judge
Myers, Republican, ard Colonel Levy, Con-
sentative, and have sent Hon. II. Raby TO
New Orleans to advise Governor Kellogg of
the important fact. We hope soon to see
other parishes follow in the examples set
by East Baton Rouge and Natchitoches,
aud thus avoid such scenes as Colfax. The
good work must 80 on, eren IL re hare

sole cry is, ave want no compromise" y

leaders so-called had very little use for the
Democrat, ard had rather lavish their ''fit-

look TO the Democrat for honest support,
such support, us in all times and under all

who arrogate to themselves all tie Fonors

that they have been justly and shalnefully
