7 WASHINGTON. August 4.-Reperts having
been circulated that attorney. General vii.
Hams would resign on account of the refusal
of Congress to enact certain laws recon-.
| mended. by, him regarding the reduction oil
| the expenses OF United States marshals ia
the South, and for other causes, it can be
stated on the authority Of the Attorney.
General himself that nothing has passed be-
tween him and the President upon the SUB.
ject. He did recommend certain legisla.
ton to Congress which would have re-
duced the expenses Of many Of the
judicial districts of the South, but as
Congress did not deem it eSpedient to enact
laws, the Attorney General does not hold
it to be sufficient cause for hiE: to resign.
AS 10 the rumor connecting him with the
Russian mission, he states that he has never
given that subject thought, nor has any
thing been said to him about it, by the Pre-
sident, nor does he. know that the President
has any idea of using bis name in that con-
nection.
Judge Williams further states that while
he has not any particular desire to hold office
be will remain in the Department Of JUS
tice, andthat bis relations with the President
are as pleasant as at any time since he &C.
copied the position.
Secretary Be'knap returned 10 Washing

We frequently hear the assertion that. after
all. !; is extremely dificul: to draw the
capita! prize. or even one Of the many
smaller prizes of $4,000 or $4,000; and much
is also said about the uncertainty OF the
venture. A careful and accurate mathe.
mAtical calculation has demonstrated that
the only insupe:able difficulty in the way
OF drawing the capital p,ize is the failure
to purchase a ticket. 4. TO the uncer-

Parish Of AvOyelles.

The Republican convention for the parish
of Avoyelles met last Saturday, and made
the following nominations: For Represent
atives, L. j. Souer and Alexander Noguez;
for parish judge. Louis J. Ducote; for sher-
if, Henry Anderson. The Republicans in
this parish have majority of over 500, and
will, without doubt. elect the above ticket
if a fair registration and election is permit.
ted. There has been an evident intent on
the part Of the White League to defeat a
fair registration by means Of intimidation,
and thus far they have really succeeded in
materially delaying the work. But IS there
is considerable time yet left to complete
registration in that parish the Republicans
are not without hope that they will be able
to carry it. particularly if few troops are
sent there to keep down the turbulently
inclined.
