Another of KellOgg's Pets.
A Convicted Murderer Given a Lu.
crative Office.

When we stated in yesterday mornings
issue that doubtless Kellogg would appoint
some of his newly liberated convict friends
to positions of trust and emolnment, we
did not expect to be enabled so soon to
prove the truth of our assertion. Below we
publish a communication which shows con-
clusi.-ely what is in store for the prison
birds recently liberated:
NEW ORLEANS, April H. 1874.
Editors New Orleans Bulletin:
This mornings issue of your estimable
paper contained the names of long list of
"pardoned convicts,' the worthy objects of
our noble usurper's angelic charity-the
friends and supporters he has aptly chosen to
support his faltering steps and comfort HIM
in the hellish tendency of his closing career.
Your list is long enough. God knows but
the protilsiOn Of his Excellencys cheap AMI
handy benevolence does not stop here
There is one Ernest Feray, from st. Landry,
who belongs, also, to that list. Some two
or three years since he brutally murdered
actually brained-an innocent citizen and
robbed his corpse, in consequence of which
he was convicted of murder in the first de
gree and sent to the Penitcntiary for life.
That man was pardoned with many others,
most of whom are mentioned by you, and is
now enjoying, at the hands of his honor,
usurper Kellogg, the appointment of Dep
uty Collector in one of the lower parishes.
Is there any shame in being convict, or
any fame any merit in being Il good and
upright citizen
Respectfully,
SPERATURUs, of st. Landry.

The Great Flood.
The Entire Ouaohita Valley Under
Water.

From the officers of the steamer Willie
which arrived Monday night from Arkadel
phia, we learn that the entire Ouachita
Valley is inundated. The towns of Trenton
Monroe, Columbia, Harris onburg, Trinity
and nearly every plantation Oh the river
have suffered, and when the Willie came
through, not only was the main river rising
but its numerous tributaries We're pouring
perfect torrents of water into it.
The news from Red River is of a more en-
couraging nature, that stream being pretty
well in it's banks and no serious overflow
anticipated.
From the officers Of the b. l.. Hodge, we
learn that the work of closing the Bonnet
Care break is making but little progress
They report no new breaks between this
city and Baton Rouge.
The officers of the f. Hensley make a
similar report in regard to the Belle Chase

A NOTED COTTON CASE.

The New York Tribune, Of the 10th inst,
has the following, which we give for what
t is worth:
WASHINGTON April 9.--The noted Elgee
cotton case, from Louisiana, involving the
title to over 1000 bales and the payment of
some $780, from the treasury has entered
upon an entirely new phase. The Court of
Claims had made an award, when the At
torney General received such information as
caused him to believe that the cotton that
was captured, amounting to...a2 bales was
properly prize OF war; and that the re-
naming 1928 bales were Confederate prop
erty; that it was guarded by rebel forces,
and that it was subsequently destroyed by
them.
Upon this information the Attorney Cen
eral appealed the case to the Supreme Court,
and the probabilities are that it will be sent
back to the Court of Claims, with instruc-
tons to receive new evidence and readjudi-
cate the case. In the meantime Senator
Cragn has introduced bill to declare the
captured bales as lawful prize, and dis
tribute the proceeds to the officers and crew
of the United States steamer Champion.
which captured the cotton. The facts
which have been furnished the committee
show that the ensign in command of the
steamer at the time of the capture, instead of
IoPortiuS ene cotton LOT prize, turned 1t
over into the hands of one B. f. Camp, who
claimed to be Treasury agen, that he de-
livered it to officers of the Treasury at
Natchez, and received as his share S45, 900
from .the Treasury. Other officers of the
steamer claim in their affidavits that Camp
bought off the ensign in command, and thus
obtained possession of the cotton and in
duced the ensign to defraud the other Off
GERS and crew by not reporting the cotton
for prizes. 1t is now expected that the new
evidence to be taken will completely over
throw all previous claims to this cotton, and
that the officers and crew participating in
the capture of a portion of it will be entered
upon the proper lists for prizes.

Dispatch to Senator Carpenter.

The following dispatch went on to Sena-
tor Carpenter yesterday, from the patriotic
body of gentlemen known as the Committee
of Seventy. 1t speaks for itself:
New ORLEANS, April IA.
To Hon. NJ. C. Carpenter. U. S. Senate Chamber
Washington, D. c.:
The Picayune of this date, publishes from
the Republican of the 4th and 18th, the
names of siXty-siX p"nitentiary convicts re-
Gently pardoned by Kellogg. Thirteen MUIR
derers five rape, two arson, two assaults to
kill, two perjury, four robbery, six man
slaughter, three burglary one sodony; the
rest larcenies, ETC., and says Kellogg is max
ing curious appeal to popular confidence
by perpetrating such acts as these.
Also publishes defense Of the Levee Com
pany, alleging that Kellogg diverted the
levee tax to other purposes, leaving them
without means to repair the everywhere
breaking levees.
The Times, d this date, says: "The pop
ular indignation against these Wholesale
pardons is too strong to be repressed; possi-
bly,, it may take the form of an Indignation
meeting or vigilance committee. In either
case the results would be unpleasant. Let
the wise take heed
The Bulletin, of this date, publishes: ain
view of the wholesale pardons of peniten-
tiary convicts by Kellogg, of the imb' cility
Of State authorities in the control of the
levees and cOnfscatory taxation, it is sng-
gested, by reliable and influential citizens,
that the exigencies require popular action
for their own protection, public indigna-
ton meeting, from which an expression of
sentiment could be obtained, and suitable
steps taken to arrest the crime, tyranny and
demonstration now in our community"
Permit us to say, that there is no acqnies-
cence or confidence in Kellogg's rule. Bust
mes languishes, the Sheriff collects the rents
of hundreds of tenements for taxes, and
the people are hopeless of relief except by
the action of Congress.
Respectfully,
COMMITTEE OF SEVENTY,
By r. H MARI, Chairman

From Red ed. River.
The Lower Coast.
The City Front.

We have nothing further to report from
| either Ouacbita or Red rivers. The Ouachi-
! ia Belle, due this morning, will, no doubt
| bring us full particulars Of the flood from
Camden down, and we anxiously await an
arrival from Red River, to post ourselves in
regard to the present stage Of water along
the course of that stream.
The river along the city front can safely
be placed as on stand, and every weak
spot is guarded vigilantly by the authorities
that be-
Along the Lower Coast we learn from reli
able sources that q general overflow is i'm
minent, and only the most untiring vigi
lance on the part of the residents of this
section of our State can prevent such a
calamity. We hope, however, for the best,
resolved to help themselves, and place no
confidence in "BOmbastes FuriOso," other
wise known as Gen. JEFF. Thompson.
At sunset last evening the gauge at the
head of Canal street denoted four and half
inches above high water mark of 1871.
A large portion of the upper steamboat
landing is under water, and from Poydras
to Delord streets the water has seeped
through to such an extent that the batture
outside of the wood work is not fit to dis
charge freight upon.
At the Canal street ferry landing the
water started to run through yesterday l..
but was promptly stopped.
At Morgans ferry landing and opposite
the French Market the flow of water has
been arrested by a temporary levee.
In the Fourth District all points threat
ened are closely watched, and no imme-
date danger is apprehended.
The break at Bonnet Care threatens Sc
rious damage to the Jackson Railroad but,
as the management have made every ps:ssi-
BILE arrangement to conduct their business
in spite of all crevasses, we have nothing to
fear. Freight and travel on this line WILL
we can assure our readers, be uninterrupted
by any overflow that may occur; the COM
pany having made all arrangements neces-
sary to place several steamers between the
lake end of the Pontchartrain Railroad,
and Pass Manchac, in case of interruption
