The WHITE LEAGUE CLAIM.

The Baton Rouge Adrcco'e Of the four
teenth instant publishes what is claimed
to be the vote Of the State for Treasurer.
as compiled by the State Democratic-Con.
servative Committee. The statement
omits some five parishes. which would
perhaps give. according 70 our estimate.
1000 Republican majority. and claims to
have elected Mr.: Moncure by some 1865
majority. This informal and illegal est.
mate does not. of course. affect the result
Of the election as to be proclaimed by
the Returning Board. but it shows
the extent to which the vote of
the State has been affected by means
of intimidation. The total vote
claimed in the statement is 142, 953. Add
ing for the parishes omitted 5000 votes.
the total vote would be 1888. There
may be some allowance made for the very
small number of colored men who voted
the Democratic ticket, and there is a
marked discrepancy between the registry
of whites, $1,000. and colored $4,000.
According to this estimate there must have
been about 5000 voters who did not attend
the election. We can not, of course. offer
! more than conjectural comparison of the
| vote cast with that registered, but the
| above statement authorizes the inference
that it must have been sufficient, if cast
for the Republican candidates, to have
determined the election beyond any ques'

We have received note from Messrs.
Zacharie, Whitaker and Cavanac. attor.
neys representing the interests Of the
Democratic party before the Returning
Board. complaining Of paragraph in an
article published in the REPUBLICAN, OF
the sixteenth instant as rejecting upon
their personal veracity and the honesty of
their efforts in behalf Of their party. and
informing US that their services are gra.
tuitously re2dered. The paragraph is as
follows:
The Picayunc. writing very much as the
lawyers who are now baying the Return
ing Board might be suffered to do. is now
attempting to exasperate the people against
| the Returning Board bv an article equally
offensive and unjust. 1t is assumed that
| four citizens of Louisiana. acting under
oath. are wholly unworthy of trus. and
| credence. but that a list of attorneys. who
are not sworn, but who are professionally
bound to save any burglar or murderer. are
I worthy of implicit trust in every repre-.
| sentation which they offer.
Exception is also taken to paragraph
of like import in the REPUBLICAN OF the
seventeenth. We are at loss to see in the
language any justification for the interpre.
tatiOn these gentlemen have put upon it.
Certainly there was no intention to ques-
ton their honesty or veracity. but simply
to claim in an emphatic manner for the
members Of the Returning Board, bound
as they are by oath to the legal and
honest performance of their duties, that
they are at least as worthy of public con-
fidence as Independent counsel engaged to
defend party interests.
We were unaware at the time Of writing
the above paragraph of the disinterested
nature Of their professional services, by
which as well as by the zeal and ability
displayed therein, they have establish ed
strong claims to the gratitude OF their
party,
