TIE GRANGERs DREAM.-The Lcnark
Gazette, staunch Granger paper, publishes
the following which is to good too be lost:
A Granger dreamed that he died; he went
straight to the spirit world; he knocked at
the gate of the New Jerusalem and it was
opened unto him The books were opened 4;
he was asked, did you ever belong to any
secret societies ?" to which he replied, 81 did.
To the Changers" "Then, sir, you cannot be
admitted, depart" He then went to the door
of the bottomless pit where the same ques.
tons were again asked him by the Devil, and
again he was told to depart After he had
gone little way off he was accosted by the
homely ruler of the pit, when the following
propositions were made: Stranger" said
Nick, II will not admit YOU here: they do
not want you in Heaven; but will sell you
two hundred barrels of birthstone for cash,
ten per cent of, and you can start a little hell
of your own, with no agents or middle'men."

POLITICAL SNUBBING.-It is understood
that the carpet-bag senators are considerably
irritated over the manner in which they
have been treated of ae. They allege that
they have not the same influence with the
President rs the northern Republican seua.
tors; that their recommendations for Office
are disregarded By the Executive, and that
they are continually snubbed by two or three
members Of the Cabinet. They complain
also that 1t has become the custom among
many Of their party associates in the Senate
to deny them the equal consideration to
which they are entitled. Their grievances
were brought to the notice of the caucus,
and demand made that they should be re-
cognlsad as having the right to lie placed on
the same footing in every respect as all the
other r publican senators. They ask that q
select committee shall be appointed, with
power to make the fullest Investigation into
southern affairs, and they claim that if this is
done they will be indicated from the charges
brought against them and those with whom
they affiliate. The abors Of Hercules would
most certainly sink into fnsighi6canee by the
side OF such an attempt as this. But the
Republican majority ia the Senate is very
much dependent upon the fidelity Of the
carpet.baggers, and realizing this fact, the
caucus was constrained to promise to take
the matter into consideration.-W Washington

killed, and Messrs. James NJ. kllgour and
Smith Reed have bad plumber out of their
docks destroyed. What q shame it is that
this valuable branch of agricultural industry
should be so disturbed by the worthless ours
which ipfest the country! And what a
deeper shame 1t is that The Virginia Legisla.

Louisiana.

The trials and tribuations of Louisiana
are possibly not ended. Fresh rumors OF
troubles ahead are afloat in Washington !;
aud the scurvy messengers of KELLOGG are
hanging like wolves about the Departments
and Congress. We shall have to wait devel-

rule has been shorn Of its eye-teeth. The
white people-the people who possess the
intelligence and the property in Louisiana,
have been fearfully outraged and plundered.
We shall see how far Radicalism will at.
tempt to proloug these things to the dis.
grace OF the nation.
