The appointment of Registrar of
Voters for this parish has been conferred
by Mr.. Kellogg upon our confrere
Julius Ennemoser, Esq. The notice of
registration appears in the appropriate
column. Mr.. Ennemoser promises
full and fair registration. His appoint
ment, however, is thoroughly partisan,
and smacks Of favoritism ON Kellogg's
part, for the carpet-bag element of this
parish.

If the reader has ever enjoyed a vio-
lent summer cold, be will have no diff
ficulty in accounting for the extraordi-
nary amount of editorial matter to be
found in this weeks TELEGRAPH.
The account of the duel fought in st.
James parish copied by this paper from
the New Orleans Republican, is not, we
find, strictly correct. Mr.. Richard, one
of the principals, did not die of his
wound, but is recovering.
The first No. Of the Waterman, just

VIM. Murrele, representative of NIadi-
son parish in Kellogg's legislature, and
first class one, too, announced in
speech in Delta last week that G. G.
Bcnhain, another first-class representa-
tive, offered him (Nrurrel) $1,000 in
cash not to go into the Convention to
nominate Radical candidate for Sena-
tor from that district. And then said
Murreli, triunphantIy: "I told Bill
johnson and Watson of it." We are
not advised whether Johnston and
Watson advised Murrcll to make a
thousand dollars, or not but we sus-
pect that Murrell was mortified in case
they advised refusal, as any high
toned Republican in the State would
be. Whenever one honest gentleman
proposes to bride another honest gen.
tlelnan, in the sum of thousand
dollars, we are satisfied that the high
and refined sentiment felt by all high
toned Republicans in this State will be
outraged when the second Il nest gen.
tletnan refuses to accept the bribe, re-
gardless of the opinion of Johnson ant
Watson.
The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1874-08-28

A case of scandal looms up among
the leading Republicans of Madison
parish, growing out of the squabble
over the Senatorship between Benham,
of Carroll, and 7. S. johnson, of Madi-
son. Gen. Dennis, bursting open the
doors of the Executive office, found
Kellogg threatening to Potterize john
son, and the General leaves it on record
that Mr.. Johnson is not a nest-hider
any longer. The party of decency and
great moral ideas is climbing, and
otherwise Initiating the squirrel.
The report given by us last week con-
corning the trouble in Lincoln was not
strictly accurate, although based upon
what we considered reliable informa-
ton. The committee did not consist
of one hundred, but Of twenty citizens,
and there was no agreement entered
into involving the designations of the
officials holding Office at Vienna. The
designations of Allen Greene as Senator,
and w. l.. Greene as Tax Collector have
been rendered to MIR. Kellogg, 'tOid
Allen" concluding his resignation with
the following significant words: sssub-
ject to your orders and disposition.''
----. --
A reasonably well-founded runner
having obtained circulation that Kel-
logg's Metropolitans were about to be
sent to Lincoln parish to sustain the
would-be officials of that parish in Of
flee, the past week has been one Of
some little excitement in the mountains
out west of this. The rumor, we have
no doubt, was based upon more solid
matter than rumors usually are; but
Mr.. Kellogg seems to have weakened
at the last movement, beset as he is by
troubles Of the same nature from nearly
every portion of the State and by feel
ing of insecurity about the Capital
which must be of itself anything but
soothing to his disquieted nerves.

THE Poor AND THE RIcH.-A thief
is a contemplate being. of course,
but in many cases hard want forces
men to sin. Poverty is a fearful
strain ID q mans honesty. The
poor man who lives an honest life
is entitled to more credit than the
man of wealth. The one is forced
to fight against temptation, which
comes to him under the guise of
want and necessity; the other has
no motive except greed or ambition
10 tempt him from the path of recti
tude. Yet, when the poor man sins
against the laws of the land, how
few sympathize with him, or seek
to shield him from the penalty in
Cured. He has no friends. and the
heaviest penalty that can be inflicted
is considered light enough for him.
When the prison door close behind
him, hope is shut out forever, for he
knows the pardoning power will new
er he asked to interfere in his behalf.
But the rich criminal is looked upon
al simply unfortunate. He is idol
lied. Justice bows in his presence.
and seems to ask his pardon for the
unpleasant relations which it bears
towards him. If he is convicted, it
is an exceptional case; his sentence
is made as light as possible; his prls
on life is lighted by pleasant enjoy
ments, and cheerful assurance that
his confinement will be short, and he
soon walks forth, the recipient of ex
ecutive clemency.

The same old apple which was the
cause of all mems woe has come
again into play; this time the woe
has fallen On the right party. Miss
Adams was singing Three Apples
for a Penny in the Troy Theatre,
and while so doing she pitched an
apple into the audience. A man in
the parquette, instead of eating the
forbidden fruit, flung it back and hit
Ewes daughter in the eye. If the
father of mankind had acted in the
same spirit what trouble would be

posing he had had any.
Mr. Routledge, of Elyris, took

" consulting her mother. When the
old lady saw the little joke she
whaled her daughter. The tender
bride was SO indignant at her new
husband for not taking a hand in the
dispute that she put in a bill for q
divorce on the plea of desertior.
The Indiana Daniel said he had
never heard that a msn's refusal to
lick his mother-in law was ground
for divorce, and reluctantly refused
