CAPTAIN w. G. MANNING, lately
arriving in Denver from travels in
New Mexico, gives curious details Of
a village between three and four centu-
ries old, situated in the northwestern
part of said Territory, just south of
the Colorado line. 1t is entirely sur
rounded by strong stone wall. and
with houses for 1000 people contains
only 1900. inhabitants at present.
This population strikingly resembles
the Chinese in speech, look, dress and
minor custom; worship deity
whom they call Montezuma and hail
with the return of each days sun, and
keep record Of historical events by
means of peculiar knots tied in long
cords. Acouncil ofthirteen "caciques,"
six of them selected for life, is the
supreme legislature of this curious
people, with whom universal suffrage
has been in practice for ages.

II ever State in this Union was
sadly oppressed, it is the State of Lou

Of that State created a small revolu-
ton in the city Of New Orleans, and
overthrow the government Of one VIM.
p. kellogg, the illegally elected Gov
ernor Of that State. Hon. John Nc
Emery was legally elected Governor
with Hon. ID. Il. Penn, as Lieutenant
Governor. The latter, by forced
revolution, overthrow the Kellogg
government; but the latter, usurpcr as
he was. appealed to the Presiden t,
and has been restored TO his iii-gotten
position as the Chief Executive Of the
great State of Louisiana. The editor Of
the New York Herald, Mr.. J. Gordon
Bennett, telegraphed to the two men,
McEncry and Kellogg to know If each
would resign his claim upon the Office
Of Governor, and allow new election.
McEnery answered that he would do
90. provided that Kellogg would do
the same. Kellogg refused, and so the
matter stands. In our opinion, peace
will never come to the miserable peo-
pie Of this unfortunate State, until a
new election is held. Kellogg, the
usurping Governor, is detcsted, not
only by the members Of the DEM
ocratic party oil over the county, but
many intelligent and honest Republi-
cans despire his cause and detest him
rs a civilian. The leading Republican
papers, of the county, speak of him in
the most approbious epilhets and if he
has spark of decent sclf-respect, in
his bosom, he would flee the county,
or call for the rocks aud mountains, to
fall upon him and hide him from the
face of all decent people. President
Grant has but one honorable course
to pursue in this matter and that is
to urge such cause upon the vile
usurpu. Kellogg, as will force him to
resign his ill-gotten Office, and permit
one who may be acceptable to the
masses to gil it. If President Grant
should fail to do this he will also fail
to listen to the voice of his people re-
gardless alike of decency or party.

AS our municipal guardians have sound

II may not be out Of place at this time to
present some facts regarding mad dogs.
II Is generally supposed that rabies origi-
carnivorous animals. So deeply rooted is
this belief that men Of eminence have at
tempted various explanations Of the sup
posed fact. One OF the Oldest views refers
canine rabies to the heat Of dog days, and
the fortunes OF Thirst. Another recently
viewed is, that the malady Is developed in
dogs kept under restraint by the res'Ss nm

surd and 80 opposed to facts that we may
state dogmaticaily they have no foundation
in truth. II originates in animals OF the Ca
