OF this report without further delay and also will
reasons II any exist, for causing the KAN instoi
to be made without my knowledge, and for eau,
ing me to be keptin isnonnee Of It and is results
Here is a fiat contradiction by th,
chief Of these Long Branch Commis
sioncrs Of their assertion. Whyt Dc
lano says is literally true, for the law
vests the appointment in the Prosi
dent only, and knows nothing about
these religious bodies which have
been used TO sanction too many ont
RACES. And this is not all, for tho Com
missioners themselves are mere crea
lures OF the Presidents breath, and
dare not oppose his wishes. The old
board resigned because the President
refused to put bis foot on the most
glaring frauds and corruption, and re
jccted evidence which should have seni
the thieves and rogues To the pcnitcn'
tiary.
Every man who ever stood in the
way OF or thwartcd the Ring, had tc
fall. Gen. Francis A. Walker was
driven from the Commissioncrship Of
Indian Affairs, as was predicted be
would be when he accepted that Office
against the advice Of friends, because
he sought to conduct it uprightly.--
Vincent Colycr, the first secretary ol
tho Peace Commissioners, was forced
out by Delano. SO was Thomas X
Cree, his successor, SO was Samuel
Walker, the clcrk who investigated the
Rcd Cloud Agency. These are only Q
few samples OF an Infamous system
which hired spies, suborned witnesses
subsidized newspapers, purchased pol
iticians, and pursued with vengeance
whoever exposed or embarrassed IL
venal operations. y

The CoNvENTIoN.-Mr. Mari, the
Chairman of the State Democratic
and Conservative Committee, is out
in an able and convincing letter in
favor Of the Convention which is
wanted to be held on the 23rd of No
vember, and which was voted down
in his Committee. Mr.. Mari simply
comes out now in his personal capac
lty as q good citizen, and gives his
views to people, who viii pay the
greatest respect to his opinions, and
we are not certainly in the mood to
quarrel or take issue with him in
the Important matter, still believing
we are right in considering it mex
pedlent at so soon day to hold the
proposed convention. We shall for
the present remain passive in the
matter, awaiting the expressed will
of that people to whom Mr.. MARI
accords the right to act and move in
the matter, and shall in no wise offer
any captions or stubborn opposition
to well directed public opinion.

III. T. BURGESS, the State Tax
Collector of our Parish, has received
from Auditor Clinton very impor-
tant and plainly spoken "CircuIar,' .
which can be found in our columns,
and to which we invite particular at
tention. BY this document it will be
again perceived that the Collector is
being gradually armed with the legal
documents which must force him to
close on our unfortunate Taxpayers,
and as the warning has been ample
and lenient, no delinquent can blame
any one bnt himself if now the axe
of the Pelican falls heavily across
his neck. Arm yourselves with a
full receipt from the Tax Collector
and then you are out of all danger
and free man. And again the time
as now out, has legally expired, the
last notices have been served, and it
is to be hoped that a Fi. Fa. will not
be permitted to issue against soil
tary delinquent.

The Census returns are all in
the hands ofChief Registrar Wright,
and their absurdity are plainly 'paip-
able on their very face. Again we
have another Radical iafamy and
trick, which some one will want to
be adjusted. They give the entire
colored population Of 45o,6ll, against
4o4,9l6 white. No one but a parti-
san of the Radical school can solve
the problem Of this preponderance of
the colored over the white race in
our State.

which had been secured by Captain
Sinnott for the low water and Sum

ses thus far, and with this trip re-
tires to make room for the Bart.
Able. Captain Sinnott in starting
his fayorite Packet thus early in the
season does it with the aim to give
full attention to the business of the
trade, and not leave our merchants
and planters the least room to COM

is not unmlndful of the full share of
patronage bestowed on him last sea-
son, and now commences the present
one with the presence Of the Bart.

the full pledge to continue his efforts
to maintain the good hold he has
earned from the people Of the Grand
Ecore trade.

three hours, she gets on another fall

In TRoUBLE.-W. F. Stokes, the
Parish Judge of Grant Parish, passed
up Friday night on the Col. A. p.
Kouns, prisoner in the custody Of
a Texas sheriff. He was arrested in
New Orleans by two detectives, upon
q requisition of the Governor Of Tex
as, and from a statement in the Pic
ayune it is,for some defalcation said
to be have been committed in that
state. But TO us, as usual with these
Kellogg Grant appointments, there
looms up some mystery and some
On rascality, and already here the
Court has let the cat out of the
bag. Stokes was made Parish Judge
by Kellogg in the usual Radical mood
and manner, and all went well till lie
did some legal turn, which was not
tasteful to the Colfax faithful, and
the pack bounded him from the word
so. Hence we argue, and are safe
in that argument, there is something
rotten in the arrest and in less than
ten days the Courts cat will be
bowling the truth Of the matter.
