Lator returns from this State

adjustment Of its iilicultics. Deep.
or and deeper this unfortunate
State is sinking IN calamity, and
what the end will be, no ono caros
to predict. From the close of the
rebellion it has been in turmoil-a
confusion that has not even bone,
fitted the nstigators who kindlcd
tho flamc, and who cxpcYtcd that
amid its destruction they might
roll in more than Asatic splcndor
upon tho plundcrod booty. But
history repeats itself, and these
miscrcants who haze made her =
battle ground Of their uphoIy pur,
poses may, wo trust, early awake
to tho fact that the battle is not
always to the strong, or the race to
tho swift" but that Right, though
long suffering, and fora time weak !,
may yet assert itself, and turning
upon its cncmies, sweep them away
like u whirlwind Of fire, So far,
Louisiana remains in tho tolls of
the destroyer. Her fields arc des.
oatcd, her marts are closed and her
cities arc in mourning Human
ile is not oven safe in what was
once tho most peaceful portion Of
the State. Prescription, intimida.
ton and srsoa arc tho specters that
follow her footsteps by day and
haunt her dreams by night, Each
flash Of tho wires speaks Of some
new cnormity some darker crime,
somo bloodcr commission. Our
telegraph reports this morning
show only the path darkening for
the previously afflicted State. The
Federal Government by assuming
neutral position declines to arrest
the violence Of those claiming to
represent 1t, and thus Louisiana is
left to oxtricate herself from her
tribulation as best she may. God
help her, is our sincere prayer.

more stock than he wished to carry, and
wished TO dispose of some of it to friends at
cost and interest to him-a slight advance
above par value. The amount offered me was
very small and made little impression on my
mind. Indeed, l was we'll nigh forgetting il
until recalled by the incidents which led to
this investigation. Mr.. Ames never offered
me any of the stock at any other time, nor
was any of the stock ever offered to me at
any time by any other person or corporation.

for any such action for the cause named, that
it is IL advised, unwisc and calculated to
cause needless alarm and seriously interfere
with trade, by keeping persons from adjoin-

reason of adjournment is believed to be that
