The BoefOo D Adtertiser on Buffers Defeat.
6osToN, September ll.-Commenting on
.he defeat of Buser yesterday, the Boston
A0oeFtiSer says:
sit is hardl y knoN0 yet whether General
Butler and his champions were squad or
an army. When they started out OD their
expedition ehey bad fine time for day
or two, end everything their own way:
nobody wss docking out for them; they
not onlS proposed to take Massachu-
setts, but declared Sha0 they had cap
tured Washington, New York, Long Branch
Kansas AID all the outlying provinces, and
it really looked something Ike it. The con-
vontion yesterday not only undeceived the
people of Massachusetts in this respect, but
we trust the federal administration, whose
confidence he's been abused and whose
generosity has beon used in riotous living"
The Adrertiser further says: "The plat
form unanimously adopted by the conven-
ton contains many things useful for
example and instruction. The resolutions
relating to back pay and the interference of
federal officers with their retainers to defeat
fair and full expression of opinion, if not
ironciad, are sufficiently firm in texture to
hold till another year So far as they relate
to the national interests, they do not over
state. We think they fall short of stating
the full meaning of the results which have
been achieved.
Massachusetts is not on the defensive
She asks no favor of the administration
and she will not allow its incompetent sub
Ordnates to crack its whip over her head.
She demands fair treatment for herself, and
not only for herself but for every State in
the Union. They have cause for complaint,
aud they only ask that their prayer shall be
heard "

REGATTA.
Interesting Regatta at Saratog,

SARATOGA, September 1.-THE regatta
to-day was a complete success. The at
tendance was very large and the facilities
for observing the race were universally ap-
proved. The weather was favorable and
the water in capital condition.
There was no pool selling allowed during
the day, the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation having prevented it in town, and
the Rowing Association having etfectually
stopped it at the lake. No persons express
more sincere satisfaction with this manage
ments than the various boat clubs them
selves. They say they do not wish to be
placed ON level with horses. Several of
them informed Mr. Conkling, the president
of the Rowing Association, that if pool
selling was allowed they would not dip an
oar.
Owing to the delay in receiving the out
riggers for the Toronto Club pair-oared
boat, the senior single scull race was rowed
first. Nine started. FentOn's boat, of the
Mutuals of Albany. was disabled. and con-
sequently Fenton did not 60. Courtney,

old Tines in New Orieanss

Mse Thomas j Spear who rs preparing
for publication series of sketches, pen and
pencil, of New Orleans in the oldeh times,
has exhibited to 0s sketch he has had
prepared of the old Spanish guardhouse
and armory, and she adjacent buildings, as
they stood in the Second District nearly a
hundred years ago. The drawing is the
work of Mr.. William Hope, a talented
draughtsman, No. 8 st. Charles street.
The view in question is one Of a series Mr..
Spear is preparing. with great care. He
will call upon many of our citizens to
exhibit his work, which he proposes to pub
lish and sell by subscription. 1t will GER
tainly be, when completed, most invalua-
bic memento of our city, and one which all
of our people of literary or historical
taste, will be glad to possess. We trust Mr.
Spear, who is venerable old gentleman,
will be spared to complete the work he has
laid out, and that he will receive the en-
couragement his enterprise merits.

Lieutenant Governor AntOines

During the absence of Governor Kellogg
Lieutenant Governor C. c. Antoine will
discharge the duties of the executive office.
Good sense, discretion and strict tealty to
the principles of the Republican party are
the ruling traits of Governor Antoine, and
all may rest assured that in his hands the
interests of the people will be safe. AL
though one Of the most modest and unas-
suming of men, Governor Antoine is pos
sessed of no ordinary amount of firmness
and decision of character, which he is pre-
pared to display when occasion requires.
He is, in his views. one of the most liberal
of men, and is warm and generous in his
impulses. He is one who labors to
strengthen the bonds of union. justice and
confidence-to make real and practical the
watchword of our State. We congratulate
the public upon having him temporarily at
'e head of affairs.

Aenator a. III. Crawford

Through the politeness of Mr.. ~. Con
quest Clarke secretary to the Governor,
we have been shown . dispach received
yesterday 1t the executive department,
from the tax collector of Franklin parish,
stating that fears were entertained for the
safety of Senator Crawford. This gentle
man, brother to Judge Crawford, recently
assassinated in Franklin parish, while on
his way to the country seat of chat parish,
for the purpose of holding court, IefS he
home in Madison parish to attend court IN
Franklin, and has not since been heard op
This fact, coupled with the Fate OF bic
brother,9 has led the friende Of the Senator
to fear that he may also have fallen by the
hand of the assassin. il this should proW
true, three valuable oitizeno wilf have
been slain-but not with impunity 10 is to
be hoped-to appease che vengeance of bad
men and stay the course OF justice This is
foul stigma upon fhe fair name of not
only Franklin parishs but OF the whole
State, and her citizens should endeavor 20
wipe it out by aiding TO arrest che criminals
and bring them to speedy punishment No
citizen who values his own safety will
knowingly permit the red-handed assassin
to roam at large if he can prevent it, or
even be the means of aiding in his arrest.
1t is the duty of every good citizen to
hunt down the fends who lay in
ambush and slay the very men who
have been chosen to prosecute and try
criminals If men charged with murder
can successfully evade Justice by killing off
those whose business it is to prosecute and
try them, then, indeed, there is no safety
for society.
We sincerely hope the fears for the safety
of Senator Crawford may prove unfounded,
and trust the people OF, Franklin and ad-
joining parishes will not rest contended un-
til the murderers of Judge Crawford and
District Attorney Harris have been secured,
placed upon speedy trial and brought to
the galIoWs.

A desperate and most villainous attempt
was made Saturday night at about the
hour of eleven o'clock, to assassinate the
adjutant general, Frank L. Britton, by
some unknown parties. who secreted them
selves in the basement OF the capitol build
ing, waiting Mr.. Brtton's return to his
room. Major Leigh Chalmers, a friend OF
Mr.. Britton, occupying the same apart
ments, was the party shot at by mistake.
They fired two shots at him, and he drew
his pistol and fred five shots at the party
in return, who escaped by running out OF
the door. Major Chalmers does not know
whether the balls took effect or not
