TIE VOTE OF LOUISIANA.

The magnitude Of this question will JUS
sify Us in adding to previous observations
a. leas. an additional and. it Seem. to US,
decisive fact as to the relative power OF
the two parties in this State.
The address Of the Committee Of Sew
enty assumes majority in opposition to
the Republican party. and while this in
formation. nor indeed any other made by
it. can have no effec: abroad. We propose to
employ the authority cited by the address
to refute its proposition. I, is uodestly
said:
The Senate COMMITTEES and til. people Of
the Northern States generally We're led into
err0: and arrived at a false conclusion By
assuming as true two falls. propositions:
l. Tina. the co!orei voters il Louisiana
were largely il excess OF the white voters.
=. That the coiorei voters and the white
Republicans. ca n:ussc, voted the Kellogg
ticket.
l. The argument employed il: the al
dress. to correct the error just stated. is
this: The census Of 1870 was taken in the
months of July and August. when thou
sands OF the white people were absent
from the State. There were. OF course,
some Republicans absent il this way.
but it is not true that the absence o: an
inhabitant from. his home excluded him
from the census. The assistant marshals
were not required to make personal in
spection of all such. absent or otherwise
inaccessible. They called at the houses,
inquired Of any intelligent member the
sex and ages of the family. Il is to be
supposed that if the head Of :. family. or
any Of its members were absent from
home. to save labor and expense. that
marshals left printed schedules to be
filled on. returned to them.
2. The census shows, according to the
address:
Waite macs above the az. o. twenty o.e.. of6
Co.ored macs above the age o. twenty one. SO .l3
Excess Of white male. owe. :wenty-one
'.''.''.....e............. ios
Here follows a course of reasoning in.
tended to establish the hypothesis that
there is larger number Of whites than
of blacks above the age of twenty-one.
We will dispose Of this theory bv fact
drawn from the census itself. but which
has not been adverted to.
Under the federal constitution the

and cheated in 1S72-men who have SUI
fered losses in consequence of Irregular
ties, but have conquered notwithstanding
and have been aided in their victory
finally by the very weakness which rests
upon detected villainy. The success 0.
the Republican ticket will never be put il
peril by its leaders in consequence of at
tempting barefaced frauds at the ballot
boxes, either before or after the day Of
election.
G It does not seem to be generally known
that under the new law the Returning
Board is deprived of most Of the IRE
sponsible authority conferred upon their
predecessors in 1872. The ballots are re-
quired to be counted at the polls in the
presence of bystanders, and returns will
be sent to the Board for compilation. 1t
will be no easy matter, therefore, to carry
on the wholesale business of changing
ballot boxes on the way to the Registrars
office, which digraced the proceedings Of
1872. And as there is not the least found
alton tor the implied charge that the
present members of the Returning Board
are prejudiced. or disposed 70 defeat the
will Of the electors by forging returns. and
attempting to palm off as real the inven-
tons of clerks and supervisors. which
they know to be false. there is no neces-
sity for this onslaught on their integrity so
many weeks in advance Of the time when
they will be called upon to act.
Besides. Governor Kellogg. as the Times
well knows. or ought to know. has no
control over this subject. The returning
board has been elected by the Senate.
Vacancies which may occur are to be
filled by the remaining members. The
Governor has nothing to do with the mat
ter at ali. He has no more power to
change the personnel of the board than he
has desire to cheat anybody. and the
Times does him a great injustice when it
insinuates that refusal to comply with
an absurd demand is to be accepted as
evidence OF pre-arranged rascality.

PROTECTING THEIR FRIENDS:

The Picay,ns has found and published
what purports to be letters from Benjamin
f. Butler and Caleb Cushing to Governor
Kellogg apon professional business con-
nected with the Louisiana case before the
Supreme Court. These letters are prob
ably genuine. but contain nothing i'm
proper that we can discover. The eminent
gentlemen were retained as counsel, as is
we'll known. to represent Louisiana in the
case Of application made by Mr.. Ogden
for a writ Of prohibition directed to our
United States District Court in the
celebrated case of Kellogg VS.. McEnery
and others. Messrs. Cushing and Butler
are both good lawyers, whose services be-
fore the Supreme Court are valuable. We
do not rate them SO high as they do them
selves, and think they asked too much for
what they did. But Senator Carpenter,
the great champion of the Fusionists at
later day, was also one Of the coun-
sci for Governor Kellogg, and presented
very steep bill for fees. which We pre-
sumo was paid.
The mystery is now, why did not the
Picoync discover and publish Senator
Carpenters letter making demand for
egal services upon Governor Kellogg, as
well as those of Messrs. Butler and Cush-
ing. Did the subsequent services OF the
distinguished Senator, when he backed
the cause of the Louisiana Fusionists in
the Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tons. and afterward in the Senate, SO far
condone his sins as an attorney at
law before the Supreme Court-that his
urgent demand for his pay, made at a
very critical period in the history of the
struggle before the Senate. is TO be sup
pressed? If it is intended to impute an
improper motive to Messrs. Butler and
Gushing for pressing their claims at such
time with great urgency. why
was not Mr.. Carpenter included in the
censure. It strikes an impartial man that
the Piccyu,e has made an invidious dis.
tinction in favor Of a man upon whom the
Fusionists have mainly relied as their
champion in these protracted struggles
with the legal distractions that stand
between them and success. Senator Car.
penter has proved himself a staunch
friend OF Mr.. McEnery. and a grateful
organ has omitted his dunning letter to
Governor Kellogg from the partial list
which it has published. There is really
no attempt shown to blackmail anybody,
but if be the theory Of the Picayuee that
such was the intention of Messrs. Butler
and Gushing. its friend Carpenter should
have been included, as he is tarred with
the same stick.

whole population is estimated as basis
| of representation. The census Of Louisi-
ana counts all aliens and citizens. and
makes an aggregate of 726,915. But
the large number Of aliens IN
this city is notorious. 1t was
stated during the federal occupation at
10000 who claimed French protection.
In 1872 there were about 1000 persons.
male and female. who claimed French al
legiance as citizens of Alsace and Lorraine.
Now these people. howsoever respectable
and valued. have no right OF suffrage.
and can not be held to military service
here. The government of the United
States. having this immense number Of
aliens in the country, directed the
Census Bureau to ascertain the voters
and fighters in the Union.
From this appears table. which gives
''she males of the military and voting
ages" and ''the male citizens Of the voting

It will be recolected that after the burning of
the Wawassett on the Potomac River last sum-
mer, by which many lives were lost board OF
local steamboat inspectors was held here, and
recommended that legal action be taken against
several of the officers OF that boat. But no such
proceedings were instituted and now the two
local inspectors of the Baltimore district report
with reference to the collision recently between
the United States steamer Gettysburg and the
Lady OF the LAKE. on the Potomac River, that the
pilot in charge OF the Lady OF the Lake
complied with oil the rules and regulations
Tor the government OF pilOts but they found 1t i'm
practicable, after several efforts on their part to
procure any evidence from the Oficers of the Get
tysburg who were on duty during the collision,
the Officers failing to appear before them, on the
ground OF orders from the Secretary OF the Navy
to sail on the day the summons was served and on
the return Of the Gettvsburg the officers declined
to appear without orders from the Secretary OF
the Navy, and, not deeming 1t their duty to pro-
cure sanction or consent OF the Secretary as to
their powers In the premises and not desiring to be
brought In contact with the Navy Department., the
inspectors concluded to close the investigation.
Thus In neither case was the Steamboat law en-
