CITY C0URT-TnIAl TERM.
A Debt that Was Not Paid.
BEFORE Judpe Nelson.

IN January 1870, Charles D. Burtow contracted
with Joseph Bell to furnish certain materials worth
$500 to be used in the execution OF contract
which Burtow had entered into with one Henry
Harrison to build four houses in Gates avenue. Har-
rison agreed to advance BurtOw S. 500 on each of
the lots in order to enable him to go on with the
work. Burtow gave Bell an order Tor the amount
due him upon Mr.. Harrison, the money TO be paid
wnen the next instalment OF the loan to Burtow
became due. The order, however, was not paid,
and Bell, therefore, brought suit against Harrison
to recover the amount.
The case was tried yesterday. 1t was alleged by
the defence that, after the order note was
made Burtow abandoned the work on the houses.
and consequently he was not entitled to any more
money.
The Jury rendered verdict in favor of plaintiff
for the full amount claimed.

A NEGRO OUTRAGE.
They Attempt to Mob Three Canvassers.

Wednesday as the Conservative canvassers of
the Third Ward were making the necessary
inquiries to discover fraudulent voters on
Liberty street, near Girod, they were sur
rounded by some thirty negroes who were
evidently bent upon mischief They brand
ished knives and pistols, at the same time
threatening the canvassers if they persisted in
the search. The crowd of blacks which col
lected and their hostile attitude is good evil
dence that the Radicals have made this point
their stronghold, and are determined their
frauds shall not be discovered.
The three canvassers, overpowered by num-
bers and being unarmed, were compelled to
desist and returned to their Office followed a
considerable distance by the mob.
We are satisfied that from the numerous
negro dens in the vicinity there been regis
tered hundreds of blacks who are not en-
titled to certificate If We are to be thus
bullied it is time we should know it.

WITHDRAWAL OF THE HIVES

The action of the Hives in retiring their
ticket from the political field, just at this
time. is eminently proper and is worthy the
commentator and gratitude Of the en-
tire community. 1t removes entirely
from the political contest the only discordant
element which might have operated to the in
Jury of the Democratic and Conservative tick
ct 1t brings to the support Of our ticket
every man who wishes to see good government
re-established and who condemns the present
usurpation in Louisiana
We may truly say now that the white people
Of this city are a unit and in perfect accord
as to the imperative necessity of defeating the
enemy in the approaching election. This can
only be done through harmonious action
This accomplished and victory is absolutely
certain.
