Supervisor from taking list of the names for
veriication. There had been about 1900 per
sons registered before the q. S. Supervisor,
received his commission, and it is believed
that something like one hundred and fifty
| were fraudulently registered. and it is to pre-
vent discovery that Laloire prevents the copy
| ing of the lists.
| In the parish the registration so far shows a
majority OF Of 191 white men, and it was to
Offset this that he refused to establish his Office
at the Bayous' precinct, which gives a Demo-
cratic majority of from 2e0 to $50 votes.
There was a big move among the Custom
House wardens and employees yesterday
around the different registration offices. The
clerks are rallying and registering in numbers.
Dibble nearly killed cab-horse flying around
to the different offices.
He interviewed some halfa dozen State Su-
pervisors in secret and alone, and in many
Instances delayed the business of the Office
for some time. His right to do so he did not
give.
The way things were going, evidently, did
not suit him, and in several instances his dis
pleasure was manifested in threats of removal
unless the Supervisors did better.
He acted, in fact as if he was the Advisory
Board.
What is in the wind now?
lookout
The State supervisor of the Ninth Ward
some days ago, got an idea that as the
weather was rather cool, and it would not
Inconvenience him, it was his duty to give
the dense population that reside in the
swamps an opportunity to register, and he
accordingly moved his books back and waited
| for business.
| He and his clerks and the unfortunate Uni
| ted States supervisor, who was compelled to
accompany them, received an overpowerng
reception from the mosquitoes and gnats, the
| former of which nightly blended their musical
| voices with those Of the melodious bullfrogs
| in a serenade.
suit OF the trip, four names, two of white men
and two of black men. The State Supervisor
| was disguised.
The Office of the Sixth Ward has again been
moved, and this time to its old stand, on Bayou
Road and IRENE streets.
The books came in from the Lake, where,
after a sOjourn OF several days, six negroes and
two whites were recorded as having taken ad-
vantages of their franchises.
THOSE GUNS.
It is reported that Kellogg will issue q
proclamation to-day, calling on citizens to
turn over the State arms which it is claimed
are in their possession.
Good for Kellogg. Citizens, your Cover
nor commands; it is your duty to obey; of
course you have not the guns, but that's
nothing, give them up anyhow.
SEIZURE OF TOBACCO MANDATORY.
Suit has been instituted in the United
States Circuit Court, praying for forfeiture to
| the United States Of the tobacco factory Of S.
r. Mayol, seized on Act TO- under the In
formation Act of 1869, by Jno. Cockrem,
| collector of United States Internal Revenue,
on the grounds that Mayol on the date OF

bacco by him received.
THE MENERY POLICE
The men who served on the police for the
few days that Chief Boylan had command,
want to know who is going to pay them for
the services they rendered.
AS they were the only police, the metropol-
itans being cooped up in the Custom House
as militia men, should not the men who did
their duty under Boylan and who were recog-
nized by the military commander, Col Brooks,
be paid out OF the metropolitan police budget?
