We have the authority in writing, of Gen
Longstreet, of the Hawkins Board to the eff
feet that Mr.. Etfingham Lawrence received
more than a thousand majority of the votes,
over Sypher, in the First Congressional Dis
trict of Louisiana. The returns which Kel-
logg has adopted as correct and legal, defeat
Mr.. Lawrence by some twenty votes, through
the counting OF more than a thousand atfda-
Wits of negroes who are represented as swear
ing that they were prevented from voting
These affidavits were counted as votes for
Sypher. And by this miserable trickcry this
man now holds his seat in the Congress of the
United States.
But 10! here comes the witness the man
who got these affdavits, and the judge who
affixed his jurat, and they swear that no
such atlantis ever appeared before them and
made such oaths; tnat they are all bogus aud
fictitious, and that the whole business was
stupeud0us fraud.
And this Is the election return which is de-
cided by the United States Congress as a legal
and valid one. Sypher sits in the House of
Representatives by this tenure among the
honorables of the nation.
The only pertinent inquiry is whether he
has not far better right to sit, sleep and
abide in some other public institution.-New
