The Shooting Of Fontelieu.
A Duel by Moonlight.

From private letter received in this city,
we learn the particulars of the affray be-
tween Granville B. Shaw, Sheriff of the
parish Of Vermlion, and P. Fontelieu,
member of the Kellogg Legislature.
1t appears that both Shaw and Fontelieu
were at concert in the town Of Able.
vile on the 31st of May, and were both
somewhat under the influence of liquor A
quarrel ensued about some old grudge, when
Fontelieu challenged Shaw to go ont with
him and measure off twenty-five PAGES and
fight it out with their revolvers.
Shaw Immediately accepted this remarka-
BILE proposition, and the two, accompanied
by quite number Of lookers-on, stepped
outside measured off the distance and COM
menced firing by the light of the moon,
which was shining brightly at the time.
At the third fire, Fontelieu fell, shot through
the head, and from the CHASTITY wound the
brain was slowly oozing, when his friends
reached him. AT last accounts he was not
dead, but the physicians declared he could
not live forty eight hours.
Fontelieu was about IS years old, and had
been a member of the Warmoth and Kellogg

noted.

The Natchitoches Red Eirer Neus, of the
Both nit, says:
There has been a change in the weather
After five weeks of very warm and dry
weather without any rain, we now have
prospects of very seasonable weather for
our crops. Though unfavorable as 1t has
been, our planters have always seemed
hopeful. They assure us that if they can
yet have good rains, within week or two,
they will raise fine crops.
Our mails from New Orleans are some
what regular in their irregularities. We
are entitled to a daily mail from New Or
leans, and get through mail once a week
by bOat-daily from Alexandria.
We take the following from the Shreve-
port Caucasian:
We have been blessed with light and
gentle rain, which will be of great benefit to
the planters. We have had real drouth
of five weeks in this town; the gardens and
pastures have almost dried up.
Red River is rapidly falling at this point,
and we predict that we will soon have i'm
perfect navigation.
Business of all kinds dull-the store
keepers are selling but little, and principally
for cash.
A recent issue of the New Orleans Times
(says the Shreveport T1mes) had sensa-
tional item about the inhuman treatment
Of lady by physician at Longview,
Texas. In justice to all parties concerned,
we quote the following from the East Texas
Bulletin:
"The Longview NeC Era has given the
case careful inquiry among the physicians
aud the hotel men of that place, and says
that all agree in the statement that such
person as Mrs. Cl,rgman has never been
heard of in that place, and that no person
was sick in that place at the time specified
in her statement"
From the Lake Charles (Calcasieu) Echo,
of the 3Oth ult., we learn that the crops of
all kinds are doing remarkably we'll
throughout the parish. The Irish potatoe
crop is about gathered, and proves to be
large one.
The orange crop, says the Echo, will be
much larger than was expected some time
back. The trees are well filed, and the
oranges, as general thing, are about the
size of grapeshOt.

Kellogg and Antoine Fail to

Why is this Thusly!"

Wooltley is patient man, man of much
endurance for the party's good, a hard work
er, and SO far as the party is concerned, "the
right man in the right place" In not one
instance on record up to yesterday has he
growled, but his patience has at last reached
that point at which it ceases to be a virtue,
and he has come out in manner that, to
say the least, is peculiar, and not at all

After the City Taxes.
4 Sweeping Rule.

1t will be remembered that, few days
ago, we mentioned the fact that De klyne
Endorsed on an order for witness to NJ
for S25. The NJ. who discounted this for $50
was w. f. Murphy, who keeps coffee house
opposite the Post Office. This gentleman
again comes to the front in the Superior
Court as transferee Of John Burke, clerk of
that court in snit for costs, in which he,
(Murphy) is plaintiff and the city of New
Orleans is defendant.
Yesterday rule was filed in the case call
ing on the Civil Sheriff to show cause, on
Saturday next, why he should not forthwith
and from time to time, pay over such pro-
ceeds of suits for city taxes, as may be in
hand, and continue to pay over the same as
received, in satisfaction of the clerks costs
due and unpaid, and which have been taxed
as part Of the judgments rendered in favor of
the city.
If this rule is made absolute, it will have
a very serious effect on the receipts of the
city, for hundreds of judgments have been
rendered in which the tax will not be col
lected for some time to come, and yet Mr..
Murphy wants the costs in these cases paid
out of the moneys now collected daily. 1t
will give him a preference no city creditor
enjoys, and would be precedent for gen
eral crusade on sums received by the Sheriff
for this corporation.
We await Judge Hawkins's decision.

Rich Old Gentleman Frightens the
Treasury Omcials.

The House Committee on Banking and
Currency have been for some time secretly
investigating the source from which the
large amount of fractional currency, which
was first issued and known as "pOstal cur
rency," has been put in circulation. The
committee were apprised very early in the
session, that large amount of this cur
rency of the frs. issue, unqnestionably
genuine and quite fresh and new, was in
circulation, and was being constantly pre-
sented Tor redemption. The Secret Service
Department of the Government has been at
work on the case for long time in connec-
ton with the committee, and it was today
fully established that the entire amount had
been pnt in circulation by very eccentric
and wealthy old gentleman, who, when the
first Issue Of the fractional currency was
made, deposited a large quantity of it in his
safe, and never had paid it out until very
recently. The Secretary at first thought Of
issuing circular warning the public against
taking it. 1t was afterwards thought the
original plateshad been stolen.-N. Y. Times.

ROCHEFORT ON MCMAHON.

few hours after his arrival in this coun
try, Rochefort wrote the following character
stic article:
have been asked if thought the Repub
lie had anything to apprehend from MacMa-
hon, should he succeed in obtaining a seven
years lease of power.
As far as am concerned, l am unable to
say what may be the plans of the President,
who has one foot in the Orleanist camp, the
other foot in thai of the Bonapartists, and
doubtless regrets not having third foot to
risk it among the Legitimists. But what
treasures us Republicans, is the fact that it
is more than likely that sooner or later a
new man will arise to rid us of the Republic
they have made for us.
To my mind we can never have too many
pretenders in France. The despots Of old
willingly reduced to practice the maxim
"dicide ct im,pera." This Machiavelian pre-
cept is now turned against the despots, an d
the Republicans Of to-day have the best Of
the game, thanks to the divided counsels
rulers.
MacMahon, placed into power by the
Right, is now attacked by the Right In
this parliamentary battle he has shown the
same amount of ability he exhibited in his
other battles. He has already lost his right
arm in the person of the Due de Broglie.
The rest of his body is already caught in
the machinery, and l do not believe it re-
quires much perspicacity to foretell that in
three months MacMahOn will be in a posi-
ton to apply to himself the saying of Ney
at Waterloo: "Come and witness the fall Of
a Marshal Of France"
1t is mainly among those who have lost
political power that we find the men who
are most eager to regain it. With the Legiti-
mists, the Orleanists and the Bonapartists,
we shall also have the Septennalists, nutil a
fifth candidate enters into the dance Our
part, for the present, is simply to watch
those stupendous fools who candidly be-
lieve that the French people was made for
their personal benefit. Let us allow them
to unmask each other and to accuse each
other of every kind of folly and crime.
The people who are gazing upon this pro-
cess Of discretion as disinterested spectators,
will doubtless derive some profit from an ex-
hibitiOn whose inevitable result will be the
material and moral ruin of these royal and
imperial princes of whom it can be truth
fully said that they have forgotten nothing
because they never knew anything. If
there is one thing in the world which is
more ridiculous than Republic without

The Senate.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-The Senate passed
the bill to remove the disabilities of John
julius Guthrie. of North Carolina.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-Mr. Hamilton, of
New York, called up the resolution to pay
Francis w. Sykes late contestant for seat
in the Senate from Alabama, the salary of a
Senator from March IA, 1873 to May %,
lo74, and mileage each way amounting in
the aggregate to 1891.
Mr.. Hamilton said the computations had
been made at the rate of $500 per annum,
while that was the legal compensation of a
Senator.
He was willing however, that computa
ton for the entire period should be at the
rate of $4,000 per annum.
Mr.. COnkling said the principle involved
In this resolution was entirely wrong. 1t
was proposition to pay gentleman who
had never performed an hours service, and
furthermore the Senate had declared he had
never any title to the name of Senator.
] He admitted there might be a precedent
for the resolution but it was time now to
disregard all such presidents.
He would be willing to pay the personal
expense of the contestant, but if his coun-
sci fees were to be paid those incurred by
the sitting member should also be paid.
MIR. Carpenter said he was member of
the Committee on Privileges and Elections,
and had attended all meetings of the COM
mittee when this case was investigated
Although the committee had reported in
favor of Spencer. the case was not entirely
free from doubt, and, if it had been before
court, the question would not have been
an easy one to decide. He believed that
Sykes had made the contest in good faith
and that he ought to be compensated.
He thought $1,000 an adequate sum. and
moved to amend by inserting that amount.
Pending the discussion the morning hour
expired, and the resolution went over.
The Senate took up the bill for the sale of
extra copies of pubic documents. and the
distribution of regular official editions there
of, and adopted an amendment authorizing
the publication of 1000 copies of the agri-
cultural report, to be distributed through

MEMPHIS, June 5.-Anderson Boyd
colored, was shot and fatally wounded this
morning, by Officer Jenny, who was at
tempting to arrest him for burglarizing
Stanton e. MoOre's store. His partner, Ste
phen Ray. was also arrested. A considerable
quantity of goods was found on him. Some
weeks ago, Mayor League appointed several
negroes to take charge of the hose carriage
in Chelsea, which was bitterly opposed by
the fremen and annulled by the General
Council.
Since then the feeling has been growing
worse, and last Sunday in dispute about
the Civil Rights bill, Thos. Farrell was dan
gerously cut by negro with razor. Some
men, seized him and doubtless would have
lynched him but for an alarm of fire.
Riotous proceedings on Decoration Day,
and the subsequent arrest of Thomas Swami,
President of the Pail Bearers, and leading
colOred politician, has embittered the ne
groes. Vague rumOrs Of riots and attacks
by the blacks, in revenge, have been current
for a day or two, which has been caused by
the clustering bavado of few worthless
negroes to that effect. Most members Of
the Pail Bearers Association served in the
Uuion army, and by some means they have
secured Springfield rifles.
The Ledger asserts positively that last
night $50 of them were drilling beyond
Oh lsea, from II to 3 o'clock, and had pick
cts thrown ont, who halted several persons
and prevented any one approaching
Although no trouble is apprehended ser-
ously by citizens or the better class of col
ored people, any imprudence on either side
might cause serious trouble.
The exaggerated ideas of the most ignor-
ant negroes canse them to assert that John
Jefferson, convicted Of brutally numbering a
colored fellow -laborer, must be hung, owing
to the Civil Rights bill.
