OUR SUPREME COURT.

In the present direful emergency, which
floods have already, in many cases, utterly
destroyed the labor of months and years,
ana brought almost total ruin upon the suf-
ferers, and while for the rest the same sad
lot seems but the bringing in Of near flu
ture with almost every interest of our peo-
pie Observation-Disclosures, agricultural and
commercial ~ and bankruptcy, seemingly
staring almost every one in the face; what
power of relief there lies in the Supreme
Court of our State to extend to many, in
their abrogation of their recently adopted
rule in regard to the fixing of cases upon
the summary docket. At such time as the
present, when even upon the most abundant
security it is, in very many cases, impossible
to raise money, with property almost en-
tirely unstable, or, if possible Of sale, only
at a fearful sacrifice, any relief which can
come to the unfortunate debtor should most
certainly, in such condition Of things as
at present obtains, be extended. And, as
in all cases before the Supreme Court for de-
cision, good and solvent security must be
first given to obtain the appeal, every and
any relief should be gladly extended by our
court as measure Of simple equity to grant
debtors opportunity to meet their engage
ments, and, so far as would be, first stay
past proceedings against them.

WHAT THE LEvEE COMPANY SAY.

In times of great excitement like these when every
person in the community is or less apprehen-
sive Of the desruc ion OF his property, and ossby

disposi ion to find fault with and blame those who
are supposed to be charged with the care OF the
Levees, is not to be wei dered at.
The Levee Company not astonished that the
criticisms what supposed to be their short
comings should be frequent and severe. They have
not done all they desired to do, much less all that
expected of them by parties ignorant in great
measure of the vast extent of the work to be done,
and the limited means with which the Company had
20 work. Under the circumstances, the Levee Com

disbursed, the amounts received, and whence the
receipts were derived.

THE sYPHER-LAwRENCE CONTEST
A TOO WILLING WITNESS.

IN tao contested election case of Lawrence
vs. Syphcr, az Representative for the flrs'
Congressional District, which has been go
ing on for several weeks before the Sixth
District Court. and which was Closed on
Friday night last, there was some amusing
as well as damaging evidence given.
Warmoth e. Rice were the attorneys re
presenting Lawrence and II. c. Dibble ap
pearod for Sypher. The rebutting testimony
elected from Colonel George w. Carter was
exceedingly pertinent, and quite over
whelmng AS against Sypher. We reproduce
it:
Question What is the political complexion
of the First District
A. Democratic.
Q. Why do yon think SO
A. From the general admission of Repub-
Hcans, and the statement of General Sypher
himself, to that effect.
q. DID YOU ever hear General Sypher ex-
press IN opinion as to the probabilities OF
his election
A. have. He stated that he could not
be elected again because he could not con
troll the Registration.
G. Did General Syphcr mention any par
ticuar register whose services were Of i'm
pOrtancef
A. Yes. lie said Jacques was necessary
to his success that he (Jacques) had con
tributcd largely to his election in 1870.
@. How valuable did he esteem Jacques
A. Tho exact number Of votes to be cen
trollcd do not remember, but he was very
important TO him (Sypher) in tight race.
@. DO you know Jacques wells
A. ] have some personal acquaintance,
but my knowledge of him is chiefly derived
frem Gen. Sypher.
Cross question. Don't you think it prob
able Con. Sypher was trying to deter you
from being a candidate and thus did not
reveal his true sentiments as to the political
complexion of tho district,
A. was not a candidate and there was
no motive for such deception, but it is very
possible that he did not tell me the truth.
Cross question. Would you believe
Jacques on" oath whore his interests wer,
concerned
A. That would depend on circumstances
and tho character of his interests. l would
believe him where his interest induced hin
to tell the truth.
There was no further use for that witness
