Unpleasant news comes from New Or
leans that frauds are again likely TO be per-
petrated IN counting the returns Of the Lou
isiana election with view to cheat the
Democrats ort of their victory, as was done
two years ago. Those incorrigible plotters
may as well understand this thing cannot
be done twice with impunity. They mis-
take the period. Neither the politics of
the country nor the politics OF Louisiana are
any longer in the same condition as when
Durell issued his midnight erder and At
tornoT General Williams abetted KELLOGG in
usurping the government of the State.
When that outrage was perpetrated the Re
publican party Of the country had lust
achieved It's greatest victory in the re-eIec-
ton Of President Grant and the Demo-
cEatic-I Liberal coalition had encountered so
prostratiDg defeat that neither the coali-
ton nor either branch Of it seemed to have
any future The Louisiana usurpers. sup-
ported BY q great national party puffed tip
with the arrogance Of victory. were So
strongly backed that they felt that there
was nothing which they might not safely
dafc. But that structure Of victory has
suddenly toppled down in ruins and can no
longer serve as O bulwark for local frauds.
The Louisiana usurpation is one of the
causes By which the proud Republican party
has been prostrated In the dust. The party
has learned By humiliating experience what
e costs 70 defy justice and trampIe on
State. The honest indignation of the
PEOPLE has taught lesson which the North

Of outrages, and viii be compelled to pro-

Death Of A Noted Indian Chief.
From the San Diego Union, MAY 3D..

From the San Diego Union, May 3D..
On Monday last, at San Pascual,
Panic, the venerable chief of that vii
lage, was thrown from a horse and
died instantly. The old settlers of
Southern California will remember
him for his polite manners and good
character. Under the Mexican rule
he always had the confidence of the
authorities, and was often called upon
to aid them in pursuit of malefactors.
He commanded at San Pascual at the
time of the battle of Gen. Keaney
with the native Californians. He then
had considerable property in cattle
and horses, and loaned Commodore
Stockton number of oxen and horses
when the latter started on his march
to Los Angeles. Panic was never re-
munerated by the Government for
these animals. His land at San Pas
cual has always been respected-and
in fact did constitute regularly or
ganized Pueblo-until within the past
year or so. Now that Panic, who
governed his people SO well, is gone, it
is believed they will not linger long
upon their own planting grounds.

A Mishap.

We have a gravel roof on our house,
and the other day some workmen were
up there fixing it. They had block
and tackle rugged on the edge of the
roof, with a rope reaching to the
ground for the purpose of hosting the
tar and gravel. Our girl went out
washing in the yard at the time, and
somehow the hook on the end Of the
rope caught in her hoop-skirt as she
walked past it. The man on the roof
was discussing the Darwinian theory,
or the tax on rum, or something at
that moment, and seeing the rope
shake, he considered it was the signal
to haul up, so, without looking over
the edge, he began to wind the crank
with velocity. A moment later the
next-door neighbors heard fearful
. screams, and as they rushed to the
windows, they perceived an athletic
exile of Erin swiftly ascending toward
the blue ethereal heavens. (.
The man at the crank fairly ached
to look over and see what the noise
was about, but he couldn't stop, he
thought, until he got the bucket at the
top. But he put OH more vehemence,
and in o moment he was amazed to
see human head, adorned with red
hair, looming above the gutter-spout
His first impulse was to let go the
crank and run. But overcoming the
earlier shock of fright he held on the
crank with one hand, while with the
other he seized a handful of warm, red
hair and hauled the owner upon the
roof.
We live in one of a row of houses
which are all joined together, and they
do say that the impetuosity with
which that girl of ours charged upon
the man who mussed her hair, and
chased him over the roofs clear up to
the corner, where he saved himself by
crawling down the chimney tlue, was
at once impressive and exhilirating.
She stood over the chimney express
ing her views concerning the young
mans present character and future
prospects until she was exhausted,
when she walked home to our roof,
lifted the trap-door, descended-and
went to bed. And when the man
emerged and brushed the SCOT off of
himself, he confided to his colleague,
while distributing the gravel, that he
would rather dive at once into the
bowels of burning volcano than to
meet that hired girl again in place
where there was no chance to rum
