The Faithful at The Polls.
Fights in Quantities, and (;
Stabbing ARRAY.

The faithful held I" a lection yesterday
throughout the city, all in accordance with
the programme laid down by the late Parish
Convention, for delegates to the Parish Ger
trail Committee.
There was general understanding in the
rank and file of the faithful that somebody
was to be voted for, for some position, what
was not generally understood, and indeed,
not cared for.
There was grand rally in all the wards
at all the polls, and the delegate that treat
ed the most got the most votes. Opposition
was high, money was free. and a general
drunk Of the faithful was the consequences,
and it resulted it quantities of knock downs
and plenty of "cussing"
At the Second Ward poll only was there a
serious difficulty, where there was stab
bling ARRAY, though at the Third, for time,
matters in general looked squally, and there
was every indication that man named KEEL
Ter should shave a head put on him."
Keller, however, sloped, and peace resumed
its sway.
A visit to all the polls last night by the
BULLETIN reporters disclosed the fact that
everything was quiet, and'the counting Of
the votes was progressing in very orderly
manner

Second Magistrates Court.
Capt. Fremaux Acquitted.

Yesterday, at II NJ, Capt. Fremaux APP
peared before Judge Staes, for examination
| on the charge of forcibly violating the person
of Mrs. Shannon, in his private room at the
Parish Prison. Mrs. Shannon is convict,
and now serving term in prison for rob-
berry. Strenuous efforts have been made for
executive clemency in her favor, and it is
we'll known that Capt. Fremanx refused to
sign petition favoring her pardon.
Kate Shannon on the stand. Mr.. Brown,
attorney for prosecution, arose and stated
that he had no connection with the case,
having, since yesterday, thrown it up upon
grounds best known to himself.
Judge Braughn resisted upon legal
grounds any postponemen-, and the case
proceeded.
Kate Shannon, notwithstanding the fact
that she had made four affidavits against
Capt. Fremaux for rape, refused to testify,
showing an evident desire to back down.
The Judge then warned her that her refusing
to make case was perjury, and were she
not already a convict, would recOmmit her
for contempt
Attorney for defense then read affidavits.
Mrs. Shannon agreed that she had made
those affidavit, but refused to speak
further.
Attorney for defense dsliked to further
increase the troubles Of this poor woman,
but thought that his client had some rights.
Mrs. Shannon then proceeded with her
story. The details of an affair of this kind
are necessarily indicate, and we spare our
readers this fabrication of falsehoods.
Capt. Fremaux's defense was clear in
every particular, he proving complete
alibi upon each and all of the occasions
specified At the close of the evidence,
Judge Braughn made a short summary of
the case. Judge Staes then hOnorably dis
charged the prisoner, stating that in every
way both his character and honor were vim
dictated, and the applause of the many pre-
sent showed how the feeling of the public
stood.
Capt. Fremaux has nobly borne this
severe test, and now, with reputation un-
furnished and unsnllied, he can hold up his
head with the best OF his fellowmen.

Cod Liver Oil and Lime, 1879 Canal street

NEWSPAPER POSTAGE.-The bill agreed
upon Ivy the United States House Of Repre-
sentatives Committee on Post Offices on the
18th inst. for the prepayment of postage
matter. accords with the recommendations
of the Postmaster General, and provides
that publishers may prepay the postage on
their publications by the pound, probably at
the rate of two cents pound. If this law
goes into effect, it will simply be necessary
to weigh each mail edition of newspapers
and periodicals in bulk, and will compel
publishers to charge their subscribers III
advance for the postage on the matter which
the latter receive. The plan win reduce the
rate very largely, and is aimed to simplify
the business Of collection, which is nov
badly arranged, and difficult to execute.

The diplomatic reputation earned by Gen.
James Watson Webb during his residence
in Brazil was not very brilliant, but it will
have an additional clond from tie statement
made in Congress last Saturday from the
records of the State Department.. When
Brazil was at war with Paraguay, and there
fore unable to resist, Gen. Webb bullied it
into paying doubtful claim, and remitted
to Washington 5000 az the amount re-
ceived. The claim has since been decided
II just, and the State Department made
ready to refund it to Brazil when it was
confronted with the evidence that Gen.
Webb had been paid over $4,000 instead of
the $1,000 he had romitted. The General
declined giving any explanation, and he is
now out Of the country and beyond the
jurisdiction Of the United States, like many
other gentlemen who have irregularities in
money transactions they do not care to be
troubled With.

Nash told him that he wanted the negroes
to lay down their arms and leave the town
he told the negroes of this, but they prefer
red keeping their arms land the town of
course. He then went on TO say that there
were two hundred men in the works, about
one hundred and thirty Of whom were
armed with "busted" citizens rifles and
shot-gnns tied up with string, that no man
had more than two rounds of ammunition,
and some only one desperate negroes they
must have been but other witnesses tell
OF heavy fire by the negroes from the
Court House. Only two rounds to man,
to certainty."]
Shaw, just before the fight, had asked
witnesses permission to leave, as he was to
old for service. Witness told him to go and
he got.
Witness in response to questions by Owlish
Beckwith gave in substance the same testi-
mony as that delivered at the previous t.ial
Cross-examined by Mr.. Wlthaker-He said
there were not more than four citizens rifles
in the crowd. He only guessed at the
amount of ammunition on hand, because he
heard some men begging from Others, say.
ing that they only had one or two rounds.
Leve was tOlerable smart negro, and
rocollected his story very well, bug man
aged to trip up several time.
the next witness, was called the regular
routine of questions were put to him by Mr..
Beckwith, and as a matter Of course he got
through easy, giving the same old story.
He stated that lie ran out of the court house
building with big crowd of negroes like a
swarm of bees.
Men dropped all around him. He was not
hit, bat he fell down with the dead men and
played dead himself, until they came around
to pick up the men, when he was taken pris-
Oner; he also stated that there were 100
whites outside the Court House watching
the negroes all the time. VIM. Williams and
C. Nelson, white man, called for, man he
did not know. They took him and mis- part
ner out to shoot them, they went towards
the Courthouse; some one shot him in the
lace and went off and came back and shot
him again.
After he was shot the second time the
men went off, and he succeeded in getting to
Brandon's house, where he remained some
time.
On the cross-examination by Mr.. Mari,
Ben did not know anything. Ben was a
reasoning man, and a conscientious Owe he
did not like to commit himself on any point,
and he simply said he did not know, al
though, under the influence Of Mr. Beck
with's persuasive tones, he knew everything.
1t was the way the witness had.
At the conclusion of his examination the
Court adjourned until 8 o'clock, Monday.

Amid the music Ct the swinging spheres
The lowleat breathing Of His name He hears.

The subject of woman suffrage is expected
to engage the attention Of the British Par
Lament at an early date, and lively de-
bate is anticipated. What awakens most
interest in the subject at present is the cir
cumstance that the bill to be considered
soon after the recess was not offered by Mr..
Jacob Bright or Prot. Faw cett, or any Of the
other we'll known champions of the cause,
but by Mr. Forsyth, who is a prominent
member Of the Conservative party. Though
the bill is not such measure as would
satisfy the friends of women's rights, merely
investing certain unmarried and widowed
women, owners of real estate, with the privi-
lege of voting. it is nevertheless regarded in
England as involving the great principle in
contention, and its adoption would be an
important step towards the consummation
Of the reform
