RATHER DOGMATIC.

The Shreveport Times, assuming de-
cidedly magisterial tone, says:
The Louisiana I,.teMgencsr, negro car
pet.bag organ. is seeking to rally its negro
dupes by frightening them with the utter
ances of the Shreveport Times. we have
no objection to the Llteligencer amusing IT.
self in this manner, and we relterate every
word we have heretofore written. we say
again, that we fully. cordially approve what
the white men Of Grant and Rapldes dld at
Colfax; the white men VINO does not, Is q
creature so base that he shames the worst
class of his species. We say again. we are
going to carry the elections In TINS State
next fall.
We desire to call the at tention OF the
Democratic White Lea guers of this State
to the fact that they are entirely ignored
in the above extract, and that the Times
has used the editorial ''we' no less than
six times in less than a dozen lines, wind
ing up with the windy assertion: eve
say again, ,oe are going to carry the
elections in this State next fall.
In answer to the Times approval OF
the slaughter that took place in the town
of Colfax, Grant parish, the Intelhgencer
says:
Remember, it was fully proved that
large number of cOlored men, some thirty
or forty, were captured after the burning
of the courthouse, kept under guard sew
eral hours, till after the steamer had passed
on, and then taken out and murdered IN
cold blood. Even if the attack on the
armed negroes had been justitfable, this
killing of helpless prisoners hours after all
resistance ceased was nothing but murder,
cowardIy, brutal murder. Yet the Times
fully approves. As for the threats, when
ever we get frightened we will let the
Times know it.
1t is very plain from the above extracts
that the editors of the hateligencer and
Times take very different views of the con-
duct of the persons engaged in the
slaughter at Colfax, the editor of the
hateNigencer regarding it as nothing but
murder, cowardly and brutal murder
while the editor Of the Times glories in
its approval of what the white men of
Grant and Rapides did at Colfax, assert
ing at the same time that the "white man
who does not, is creature so base that
he shames the worst class of his species"
1t will be for an intelligent public in
North Louisiana to say which of the
three prominent characteristics Of the
Times predominates- dogmatisin, van
ity, or immoral tendencies deter
mine whether its teachings are such as
should be followed by wise and intelli-
gent people.

Washington Special May III to the LOUISVILLE
Colirier-JOurnal

Courler-Journal:
Notice was given to-day by Senator
Scott, Of PENNSYLVANIA, ri bis purpose on
Wednesday morning TO call up the bills
reported by the Senate Committee on
Claims. This committee has generally re-
ported in favor of meTitOrious war claims
from the South, but there is a strong
minority in the Senate which tenaciously
oppose il. The House Committee on
Claims is understood to be unfavorable TO
such claims. Mr.. Davis will on WedneS-
day deliver a speech formally reviewing
the whole subject, and citing numerous
authorities on public law to show that cit
liens Of the Southern States, who adj
hered TO the Union cause, are entitled
to compensation for property taken or
appropriated by the Government. Among
other authorities, he will adduoe the in
GOrsement by Gen. Grant, on the 18th of
October, 1864, OF the claim Of James Cam
eron, of Chattanooga, Tenn, for damages
to out-houses, destruction of timber, etc.
According to statement, prepared by Mr..
Davis, the total number of claims, so far
allowed by all branches Of the Government,
is 1917, amounting to nearly S5,OOO.OOO.
The number rejected is 1896, amounting
to about S12,000,00O. There are 30,SS2
cases not yet acted on. Mr.. Davis thinks
twenty-five million dollars would cover
every legitimate claim. 1t appears the cap
tIIred and abandoned property fund still in
the Treasury amounts TO Sl4,410, 729.17
The principle covered by these views would
include what are known as the Morgan raid
claims, and also large amount Of property
in Kentucky actually taken and occupied
during the civil war

the effect that all attempts shall be
discountenanced to raise money in the

reply to an application from the Board
of Directors of the South Carolina

of sound merit, for a loan, the Secre-
tary Of the Council has written to the
Board as follows:
In reference to the proposed South
Carolina Rice Plantation Trust | am
instructed to call your attention to the
fact that South Carolina does not CON-
ply with her obligations to her State
creditors, and that she isnow IN state
OF default.
The leading financial authorities of

that It is inexpedient TO assist the pub
