The q. s. Cavalry Burning Houses.

The bravado of Policeman Merrill and the
violence of his bummers have not succeeded
in intimidating the white people of North
Louisiana Major Moncure, who day or
two ago returned from Natchitoches, reports
the people everywhere in splendid spirits and
determined to carry the elections Hundreds
of men have fed to the woods to escape the
outrages of Federal justice, but they are all
mounted, well armed and determined to do
their duty, and on the day of election they
VIII swoop up to the polls and cast their bal
lots.
Mr.. W. L. Hahn, an old and well-knovn
citizen of Red River parish, informs us that
last Sunday the cavalry, or rather the maraud-
ers, of Policeman Merrill, arrested Major Bra
zielle at the house Of Mr.. Grape, eight miles
from Coushstta, and then burned the house.
The same gentleman tells Us that q SQUAD Of
these rascals went to the house Of Mai. ferret.
in Natchitoches, near the Red River line, and
villainously abused that gentleman, Who was
very III, and the following day he died. Other
parties up since Nj. Hahn, inform US that
number Of houses have been burned; and
gentleman Who came up yesterday states that
the police jury of Red River have provided
to have but one ballot-box in the whole par
ish, and that at Coushatta. It is clear that
some more killing ought to be done down
there. -Shrereport Times, LIST inst.

THE ELECTION IN ALABAMA.
A oRIAr DKNocRATIc VICTORY.

The returns from all parts of the Union
show great gains for the Democratic party.
In our own State of Alabama, in which
We are more especially interested, it ap-
pears that the Democratic and Conservative
ticket is elected by handsome ma
jority = if we may judge from the re-
turns we have thus far received. Montgomery
county gives us a gain of 800 votes, and lets
Mr.. Posey drop 1000 votes behind the Radical
ticket for Chancellor. Mobile county gives us
a democratic majority OF from 1900 to 1900, a
net gain upon the election two years ago Of
over 1000 votes. Madison county, which two
years ago gave over 500 Republican majority,
now goes Democratic by small majority.
Lee county, which elected Pennington, Rep,
to the State Senate two years ago by over 100
majority, now gives the Democratic ticket, it
is said over 1000 majority. Dallas county cuts
down the Republican majority over 500 votes.
Thus it goes all over the State. 1t appears that
we have elected the entire Democratic and
Conservative State ticket. We have elected
our entire county ticket. Mr.. Austill is prob
ably elected Chancellor for the Southern Di-
vision, and we are yet to be informed that Mr..
Bromberg is beaten for Congress in the Mo-
bile District. Col Toulmin is of course elect
ed Judge of the Mobile Circuit. All this is
glory enough for one 'day.-Mobile Register,

There seems to be rage for steepled build
ings Of the mercantile kind among the archi-
tects of New York. The new Tribune estab-
lishment is now running to steeple, which
will be nearly as high as any church spire in
the city. The big new postofice, building
erected by the government. and soon to be
completed, is tapering of into steeple
which is to be run as high as the appropria-
ton will permit The Graphic, Of last Thurs
day. gives picture of a new courthouse in
process Of erection, which, according to the en-
craving, is to have a sky-scraping steeple.
We believe that the new telegraph building
has, or is to have, a steeple, and We think
there are several insurance companies with
steepled edifces. The stepping Of such edi-
fees is in bad taste, as we'll as wasteful, &C.
cording to our opinion. It is rather curious
to observe, in this connection, that q great
many of the very newest churches in New
York are built without steeples. Perhaps
there is significance in the fact that the newest

The Democracy of New Hampshire should
now secure one reform in their State which is
much needed. The Baptist Association which
recently met in Philadelphia directed atten-
ton to it by q committee report, from which
we cut the following lines:
To-day every State and Territory in our
Union, with but one exception, recognize no
particular creed, but all are free to express
themselves and worship without fear of perse-
cution. The one exception is the State of
New Hampshire, her statutes prohibiting any
but Professionals from being eligible to the
Office of Governor, or to become members of
the Legislature"
The predominant Democratic party must
change this state of things as soon as pos
sible. 1t is discreditable to the State, and to
the Republican party which has been SO long
in power there. There should be no re-.
igious disabilities of any kind in any part of
this country. Any discrimination against
Roman Catholics is injurious to Protestant
ism. The Democracy of New Hampshire
need not be afraid of the accusation of favor
ing Roman Catholicism in destroying this last
vestige of Protestant supremacy The body
which has just called attention to the OBJ
noxious statutes was Baptist body, and its
action has the support Of the Presbyterian,
Episcopalian, Methodist, Congregationalist.
Unitarian, Universalist and other denomina.
tons, and of the people at large, without re-
gard to sectarian distinctions.

Impeachment of Landaulet Williams.

| Landaulet Williams, Attorney General il
command Of the armies of the United States
(vice Sherman, suspended) is liable to i'm
parchment for high crimes and misdemean
ors. He is guilty of conspiring with several
persons, to wit Gen. W. II. Emory, Maiol

United States of the privilege of voting be-
slowed upon them by the fifteenth amend.
ment. That amendment expressly says:
"The right of citizens of the United States
! to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the
| United States or by any State on account of
race, color, or previous condition Of servi-
tude"
The Enforcement act says
eff two or more persons within any State
or Territory Of the United States shall con-
spire together by force, mtimida-
ton or threat, to prevent any citizen of the
United States, lawfully entitled to vote, from
giving his support and advocacy in lawful
manner towards or in favor of the election of
any lawfully qualified person as an elector of
President or Vice President of the United
States, or as member Of the Congress of the
United States, or to injure any such citizen in
his person or property on account Of such
support or advocacy, each and every person
SO offending shall he deemed guilty OF high
crime and, upon conviction Thereof in any
district or circuit court of the United States,
or district or supreme court Of any Territory
of the United States having jurisdiction of
similar otfenses, shall be punished by fine
not less than five hundred nor more than five
thousand dollars, or by imprisonment, with
or without hard labor, as the court may de-
termine, for period of not less than six
months nor more than six years, etc.
Williams and his co-conspirators are palpa-
bly, guilty under this act. They have con-
spired both in Louisiana and Alabama to pre-
vent Democratic citizens from supporting and
advocating the claims Of Democratic candi-
dates for Congress to election. They have
used force, intimidation, and threats, and are
liable to all the penalties of the act
They are also liable to action for recovery of
damages by the persons aggrieved, and we
trust that some of the innocent citizens whom
they have prosecuted, will see their way clear
to maintain suits against them for recovery of
damages occasioned by such injury or depri-
vation of rights and privileges. They cannot

Terrible Collision 1t Sea.

The London STANDARD, of the 18th ult, saws
"a collision Of terrible character occurred
in the Channel last night, about fourteen
miles off the Lizard, between two magnificent
vessels employed in the colonial trade-the
Candahar and the Kiugsbridge. They were
both iron ships, and registered at Liverpool,
the Candahar being l41S tons Jonghian, mas.
general cargo; she is owned by Messrs. Craw.
shay, Of London. The Kingsbridge was l497
tons, with similar cargo and bound from
London to Sydney; the Captain was named
Symonds an American. who had his wife aud
daughter on board. She is owned by Messrs.
Brocklebank, Of Liverpool The first
named vessel left London last Friday
and the second on Saturday, and all
went well until half-past seven on Wednes-
day evening, when the Lizard was bearing
about fourteen miles south. The weather was
fine, with q favorable wind, but the night was
very dark. The Candahar was then seen by
the crew Of the kingsbridge bearing down on
her on the port tack. The chief mate, Mr..
Macdonald, was on the fore poop, and. when
he saw that collision Was inevitable, he called
out to the man ut the wheel to port the helm,
but before the ship answered the Canadian
WAS down upon her, striking her amidships.
The scene was terrible at the time of the col
Gsion many of the crew were in the rigging.
One of the topmasts came down and in
no small measure added to the confusion, to
which the darkness of the night also con-
tributed. The crew of the Candahar did all
they could to save the struggling crew of the
Kingsbridge. Unfortunately, q great many
ropes were not long enough, having been
broken in the collision. but after time
longer ones were obtained, and by this means
some Of the crew and others saved them
selves by clinging to the rigging of the Cam
dohar. The chief mate saved himself by
clinging to one Of the sails of the Candahar.
At the time of the collision the captains
daughter was playing the piano in the CHER
cabin, and when the collision was imminent
he requested her and her mother to come on
deck. The latter made an attempt to get
over the side Of the Candahar; her daughter
requested her, however. to come to the other
side, because the captain was getting out
boat, and thus prevented her from boarding
the Candahar. In three minutes the ship
went down, and the captain, his wife and
daughter were drowned, as were also eight of
the crew, out of the total Of thirty-one The
remainder of the crew were brought into Fall
mouth to-day by the Candshar. The value Of
the Kingsbridge and her cargo is estimated at

her his wife. She told him she was very much
obliged, and would instantly prepare for the

learn sufficient arithmetic to calculate but
