THE suFrERER's ROOM.
HERALD reporter called at NO. 23S west
Fourteenth street. The house was perfectly quie!.
and there were no evidences OF the at
tempted homicide perceptibe either IN the
shape OF q curious throng In the street or
in crowded hallway full OF servingmaids ana
doctors nurses within. The door was opened by
daughter OF the lady OF the honse. Captain Cherry
arrived at this instant, and after MN lne P
furnished. The wounded lady was IN the BACK parior
lying on bed which was placed IN the middle M i OF
the room. The usual throng OF assistants dld NOT
surround the bed. Neither the captain OF ponce nor
the reporter entered the room. At the bedside sat

VISIT FROM THE CORONER.
Captain Cherry at once telegraphed TO Police Head
quarters, and Coroner keenan, proceeded early
in the afternoon to No. 23s West Fourteenth street
TO take the antemortem statement OF MRS. Ida Tenn

the wounded lady was not in immediate danger OF
death, the Coroner did not proceed TO take ner
statement, inasmuch as IL would have no binding
force unless she considered herself TO be in dying
condition. In the condition OF the patent should
change for the worse her statement Will be taken.
HERALD reporter called at the residence OF
Mrs. Templeton late last night and learned that her
condition was unchanged and that hope was grow.

The first witnesses testified to the peaceable
character OF the accused and to the friendly re-
lations maintained with his brother up TO the day

UNITED STATES SENATOR'S.

We learn from 81 Republican source
that tho Kellogg legislature elected
Hon. John Ray to all IIellogg's uucx,
PRED term of six weeks In tho u. S,
Senate, and Pinchback for tho long
term. Did wo not say tho Republican
party was Africanized7 Tho white
Radicals tried to defeat Pinch with
various men, but tho negro blood was
up and must have it's champion. We
arc glad Pinch was elected. 1t gives
the Fusionists another substantial ar
gunent at Washington.
Tho regular legislature has chosen
Gen. McNtillon, OF Carroll, for the
short term in tho Senate; no election
"a yet for tho long term. Warmoth,
in tho balloting, received the highest
vote, twcnty-scvcn. lie will doubtless
withdraw.

CHIEF JUSTICE LUDELING.

With this gentleman we have sci
dom found fault. We could appreciate
his sentiments as 3 Union man, and
honorcd him for his course in the Con-
stitutional Convention. The expccta-
lions justified by his acts in that body
have not been realized, and tho t,sur-
pations no then protested against and
publicly condemned by Il withdrawal,
he appears at last to have endorsed not
only by his individual, but by his
Judicial sanction as tho highest func-
tionary in the judicial department of
tho government. We are sorry for
this. 1t shakes our confidence in tho
man. 1t leaves us to solve q grave
question respecting tho flrmncss and
sincerity OF q man We have regarded "a
both firm and sincere. II places him
in antagonism to his history, and in
antagoniSru TO his ncighborS, his play
mates and his people. It places him
In most awkward and inconsistent
position. lie has prc,iudgcd one of
tho gravcst issues possible to come

sonal interest in getting position. The
belief Is strong and prevalent among
the whites, that theirs and the colored
mans interests are identical. But have
our readers ever reflected what may be
the co1ored mans view Of the matter
Is he of our opinion? Does he believe
he can become rich sooner by working
for the white man, or by working
against him? Laying aside his Preju-
dice Of race and feelings against his old

In the laws of political economy and
the mutual dependence Of labor and
capital, are his natural Impressions
aye, firm belief-in our theory for his
ultimate redemption from poverty and
a low station In life? We venture to
assert that the negro feels, In his heart,
no such community Of interest with
the whites, as the whites have been
vainly endeavorlng for the past seven
years to convince him does and should
exist. If he makes three hundred
dollars by the planters aid, he feels no
higher conception of his obligation to
his employer, or to tho State, than is
given in his right to labor. And go
with NIL this laboring class. AS an ev-
idence of this fact, tho numerous in
stances OF downright ingratitude shown
all over the country is amply sufficient

Wo have been led to these conclu-
sions by facts and by close observation
OF the negro character. Tho ultimate
results of the antagonism are only az
yet in embryo, but that they are In
process Of development is hardly to be
denied. We submit to tho white peo-

INAUGURATION OF GOV. s1cEEERy.
"a Glorious Day.

No display of popular feeling, in this
State, has ever equaled that in New
Orleans, on last Monday, upon the
occasion of the Inauguration of Cover
nor McEenery in Lafayette square.
Thousands Of people, mon and ladies,
assembled in the square to attest their
devotion to the cause symbolyzed by
this ceremony and to tell the world
what government the State of Louisi-
ana prefers. Tho ceremonies began
with prayer by the Right Rev. Bishop
Wilmer, ofthe Episcopal Church. Gov.
Warmoth then appeared and delivered
his farewell address, it being mainly
defense, and a very able defense; Of
his administration. Bishop Pierce, Of
| the M. f. Church South, followed with
prayer. Gov. McEnery was introduced
| to the vast concourse, and delivered
his inaugural. Tho address, which we
| have carefully read, is a martesly vim
dication Of the claims of the Fusion
! candidates, and a manly outspokcn OK
position of tho general policy by which
| tho new Governor intends to be guided.
We are fully persuaded that this adj
dress will exercise most salutary
influence over the minds of the people
of the whole country. Tho address
concluded, Col. McEnery was sworn
| into Office by Judge Saucier, of New
Orleans. Maj. Moncure then read Il
letter from Archbishop Fcrche, of tho
| Roman Catholic church, tcndering his
fsympathies to tho people and the now
! officials, and rcgrctting his inability
! to attend and deliver the bcnediction.
Rev. J. X. Gutheim, of tho Jewish
Church. Lieut.. Gov. Pom delivered
| a brief address, and was followed by
Gen. Sheridan in an eloquent speech,
when tho ceremonies terminated. At
night, Gov. McEnery held a Icvee at
Exposition Hall, in which the wealth,
beauty, intelligence, worth, tho high
est and tho lowest, participated 10 give
depression Of their loyalty to the new
government and of sympathy for its
gallant chief.
! Speaking OF the day and its nlanifes-
tations, oven tho New Orleans Repub-
lican is compelled to admit that there
was <'a large concoursc OF people," and
| that it was a "gIorious day" for the new
Governor. Aye, and SO it was for all
tho people of Louisiana, counting out
that doleful mockery at Mechanics
Institute.
| Wca not advised what will. follow
in the line Of policy of the new govern.
| ment-whether the Governor will pro.
ceed to organize q State government
and tho legislature go on with its du.
tics. Tho impression appears to be-
however, that further action will be
deferred until Congress has passed
Judgment on the late election. What,
ever may be done, OR omitted, we con.
ljurc the people to resolve not to Go any,
thing recognizing the Kellogg govern
ment, except from conpulsion and
with an explicit protest agains: its
illcgallty.

NOTES ABOUT EXCHANGES.

Our esteemed friend Judge II. d.
Tonpkins takes final leave Of the rea-
ders Of tho Union Record Of last week.
We part reluctantly with Judge Temp
kins, for he is both forcib1e and a
pleasing writer, with sound views and
true as steel to his people. Can VIC not
persuade him to alter his detcrmina-
ton?
Mr.. w. p. Mangham has associated
with himself, in tho management OF
tho Richland Beacon, Mr.. s. B. Baird
lately Of the press Of Alabama. Mr..
Baird is welcomed to tho fraternity and
to the State and rendered our very best
wishes.
Tho New Orleans Homo Journal
comes to us considerably enlarged and
embellished with q full two-page Illus
tration. This paper has been we'll
managed and is doing good service In
our State In behalf Of agriculture and
kindred interests. It deserves liberal
patronage. Published weekly, at 6
per annum.
No less than four OF our rural OK
changes have been appearing in half
sheets for some timc. This might be
avoided by purchasing supply OF
paper in tho spring sufficient to last the
remainder of the year.
What has became OF tho Shreveport
South Western? It's visits to this office
have been unaccountably suspended.
Wo ARC panied to hear that Mr.. Bart
lett, of tho Claiborne Advocate, rcceIv-
ed a pistol wound in - personal difficulty
at Homer few days ago 1t is to be
hoped wo will not be called upon to
chronicle any serious results flowing
from this lamcntablc occurrence. Good
editors are scarce enough now.
Judge Head, Of the Sparta Times,
is quoted to sustain tho charge Of fraud
in tho late election. Rise to explain,
Judge!
Tho franklin Sun states that tho
aged editor OF that paper was "outra-
,eously and violently assaulted and
beaten" by ono John Ellison, on tho
pretext, which is denied by Col. Zim,
that tho Sun had connected IItlison's
namc with horse thieves. Mr.. Ellison
has not bcttcrcd his case by beating n
man Of Col. Zim's ago and inflrmities.
