The Delta, Madison Parlsh, flnnlca-
tor, Radical journal of no mean pre-
tensions, and whose editor is one of the
"truly loil'' leaders and party mana
gers, is again out in an article in its is
sue of the 18th inst, asserting most pos
itively that the act to repeal the Free
Market bill, had been passed over Kel-
logg's veto by BRIBERY of members of
the late Legislature--and actually pub
fishes the yeas and nays in the House
and Senate, in full, on the question of
passing the repeal bill over the veto.--
As the Vindicator is so persistent and
positive in making the charge of bride
ry and corruption, we think it will do
no harm to publish and preserve the
vote as presented by the editor of the
Vindicator:

A slight glance at the four names we
have "small capped" will show the sta
tus of the Rapides Honorables.
The Vindicator further asserts that
when the executive veto of the repeal
bill was sent to the Legislature, "there
was not one member of either House
who did not know that money had been.
and was being used to secure IFS pas
sage" over the veto. This is certainly
plain talk, but it is followed up by
words still more emphatic aud pointed:
Sand as another matter Of record, VIC
here affirm: that we heard persons Of
fer bribery for votes Oh this same sub
stitute to the original bill Of 1873, and
further: We challenge any m"mber
who voted for the bill to force us to
produce the proof
Now all this fine and strictly
honest doings on the part of the Bayo-
net Legislature, conceived in iniquity,
Graded in fraud and matured in infa-
my, is only following in the footsteps
of illustrious predecents, sanctioned and
cherished by Louisiana radicalism ever
since its advent in our poor State and
we only add another link to the corrupt
chain in placing the above on record.
p Some fresh hell has been inau.
gurated in Arkansas, which we can't
now, from our present stand point
unravel; we are so behind in papers,
that onr only cleaning into this new
hell is from the latest dispatches,
which contains, General Order No. T.
from Tom P. Dockery, Brigadier Gen
eral and Military Governor of the
City of Little Rock. This has the old
inquisition ring about it,and when we
can further fathom the depths of the
affair, we will let our readers know
all about it.
