King AlphOnSO'S Policy.

The Madrid correspondent of the London
Times gives the following anecdote of King
Alphcnso: "Don Alphonso, it seems, had
already retired after his days work on the
evening after his arrival at Valencia, when he
was waited upon by Marshal Cheste and Car
dinal Fernandez, Archbishop of Valencia,
two of the most uncompromising retrogradists
of the moderate party, who pressed upon
him the expediency of breaking with Canovas
del Castillo, separating himself from the
Liberal party, and proclaiming himself
Roman Catholic and Apostolic monarch,
bound to establish the unity of the church,
on the terms of the Concordat signed by
Queen Isabella, and on the principles devel-
oped by the Pope in his Encyclic and Sylla-
bus. The King stood firm throughout con-
ference which lasted more than an hour and
half He said that he would take care that
justice should be done to the Catholic clergy,
whose temporal interests had suffered greatly
during the revolution; that he was anxious
for his own sake that the clergy should be
well paid, in order to have them amenable to
his control; but that for the rest, he intended
to be King of all Spaniards, that lie would
make no distinction of religious or political
parties, and that freedom of conscience, of
creed, and worship should be enjoyed by the
Spaniards as amply as by the people of any
other State.

fighter against Rookie, to meet him within
fifty miles of either Detroit or Pittsburg,

Missouri laws (he keeps a saloon in St Lou

does not deny that he is the great unknown
standing back Of Chambers.
The fight will be conducted under the rules
of the London prize ring, under which the
accepting party need not produce his man

gone into training. Allen is very free of

Pinch's Quietus Final.
A Favorable Report ON the Texas
Pacific Railroad Bill.
Especial to the Bulletin.1

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-This morning F.
G. Zacharie, ESQ.,, and Major E. A. Burke fled
their credentials before tie Subj COMMITTEES.
They were well received, and from their inter-
course with the members, report that the
prospects of suitable compromise are very
bright.
The chief opposition to such settlement
comes from two classes of Republicans; one
class, having no faith in Kellogg, fear, in the
event of an adjustment, that he might join
the Democrats; the other class, who are also
opposed. apprehend Pinchback's interests
would be hopelessly lost. Both these i'm.
pressions have been easily removed by the
Conservative delegates here, and these repre-
sentatives of Louisiana are highly encour-
aged.
Staunch Republicans assert that the quietus
given to Pinchback yesterday is final. but
they express regret that it was not positive
refusal of his claim to seat, instead of q
motion to table the matter.
The Pacific Railroad Committee have agreed
this morning to report favorably for the Texas
Pacific bill. They will ask an evening for it's
special consideration. ASH.

It Is a pretty safe prediction that Mr. Wendell
Phillips will not avail himself Of Senator Cor
don's invitation to go South, see for himself, and
then tell the Northern public all about it, Knowl-
edge would bring with it responsibility, and that
is something which MIR. Wendell Phillips sedu-
lousy avoids. 1t is not in his line; he does not
choose to cucumber and cripple himself in any
such way. Having once ascelt tanned the exact
truth about the South from personal observation
and experience he would be obliged to copfine
himself to it in his subsequent speeches and let
tiers. He prefers to ego it blind" thank you.
The country gains in point Of rhetoric, and no
great harm is done; since the number Of people
who pay any attention to Mr.. Phillips's counsels
and warnings is very limited. Here in New En-
gland, the great majority of US would as soon
think OF regulating our watches by the aurora
borealls as Of regulating our politics by Mr.. Wen
dell Phillips. -Sp,inlield (Nass.) Republican.

ROOM FOR OUR CESAR,

Give our Caesar room to conquer,
Lo! his hungry legions come,
From the wreck of last years battle,
Crying for the gun and drum.
In the North-land and the Southland
In the East and in the West
By the people scathed and smitten-
They uprear battered crest.
Give our Cesar room to conquer,
Strike the legal chains away
That check his fierce ambition,
And hedge about his way,
Break the barriers that bind him,
Put the States beneath his heel,
Let him seize the royal purple
And stamp out the common veal.
Give our Cesar room to conquer,
Ere the hundred summers come,
Since the voice of Freedom shouted
Through the rolling rebel drum
Give us back the regal prestige,
Ere the century shall die,
Down with Liberty, the strumpet,
Rear our CAESARS crest on high.
Give our Caesar room to conquer,
Cast the Constitution down,
Spit upon the long delusion,
Kneel before our CRsar's crown.
Give him room to set his legions
In array-he fain would bring
To issue the long battle
'Twixt the People and the King.

NEW ORLEANS SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 90 1875

and there was great excitement, and when thu
Judge set out, his original posse was swellec
to about three hundred men, of whom ove1
two hundred were colored
Reliable reports were received that the
leaders, Rely and Rose, with some of thei,
men, had been to adjoining plantations,
called the hands from the field by ringing
the plantation bell, and urged them to make
part of their band, and Judge Poche deemed
it advisable to take with him all the force he
could raise-frst, with view of crushing all
resistance, and, second, in the hope and be-
lief that if the rioters found themselves large
ly outnumbered, they would surrender with
out fight.
The posse proceeded to the river until OPP
posite Buena Vista plantation, and fortunately
TIE b. L. Hodge was passing. She was
hailed and came in and conveyed quite a
number of the party to the opposite side of
the river, landing them on the place adjoin-
Ing Armas, where they were met by another
large party, all cOlored men.
Judge Poche divided his force into four
divisions, first having instructed all unarmed
men to leave the ranks, and
Surrounded
the quarters on the Buena Vista place.
The negroes had, as on the night previous,
barricaded one of the cabins
JuuSo IOcue instructed the chief deputy
who accompanied him to step forward, un-
armed. with one man, also unarmed, and
demand the release Of the prisoners, and the
surrender of the six accused, for whom war;
rants were held. On the demand being
made in accordance with TIE above, the
rioters surrendered, seeing that resistance was
useless.
The prisoners were released, and the six
men for whom there were warrants, were
taken charge Of, as were Rely and Ross.
The negroes who were part of the posse
clamored for the
Lynching
of these men, and Judge Poche, with the
greatest difficulty, prevented their being
hung.
The wounded men were cared for and the
body Of the dead man turned over to his
friends, and Judge Poche dismissed his
posse.
If those rioters had been white men, we
would have had another tale of horrible deeds
by the bloody bandits OF this State, and prob
ably another Congressional Committee to in
it; but as they were negroes, (Heaven
be praised) it is nothing more than disturb
ance Of the peace.
There was colored man killed, however,
and Gen. Sheridan can use him to fill up his
list. II witnesses are wanted some of his
murderers can be called on.

HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK,

Some time during the night of Friday
February -, bold attempt was made t.
burglarize the Pelican Saloon, corner Of Per
dido and ST. Charles streets, kept by Dar
Owens. The thieves left a note to the pro
priesor, wherein they stated that they had
victimized him to the extent of several bot
ties of whisky and couple Of revolvers.
The mysterious disappearance of Judge
Macarthur about seven weeks ago was rife
subject during the week. Nothing furthe,
was elected, however, than the fact that he
had been in concubinage with colored wo-
man by the name of Lou Williams, on Ram
part street, and that no clue has been discov-
cred ~ to his whereabouts
A special meeting of the Chamber of Com
snerce was held on Tuesday, February 16, to
petition Congress to improve the Southwest
Pass as the best port of entry for New Or
leans, Gen. Beauregard scquescing in the
proposition.
In the Superior Court was argued the case
of the State versus Garvey and Earle, on the
charge of the murder Of Mrs. Solinger. The
prisoners were much exercised and exhibited
great discontinue at the evident verdict Of
guilty,
Another attempt at burglary was made on
Wednesday morning, at No. 237 Camp street,
the burglars being frightened off by the lady
of the house Mrs J. f. Rohrbacher) firing at
them.
Gen. Gusts Lee and sister arrived at the st.
James Hotel on Wednesday evening, and
were accorded royal reception by our citi-
zens
Early Wednesday morning two negro wo-
men successfully robbed a house at No. 407
Bayou Road, and got away with $4,000. The
robbery showed that the negro women were
master hands, and succeeding in eluding the
vigilance Of the police.
Another robber was arrested on Thursday
for robbing jewelry store in Texas of nearly
500 worth of silver; since, most of the arti-
cles were recovered, from the fact that al, of
them bore the impress of Z. A. Tyler & Co.,
and that the thief offered them for sale at q
brokers' Office.
The frequency Of burglaries during the
week led Capt. Schneider, chief of the de-
tective force, to maintain the utmost vigilance
in the movements Of his corps, which resulted
ia the capture of two noted burglars.
During the week, political excitement has
run high over the Louisiana situation. Three
Conservatives left for Washington to repre-
sent the condition of aff.irs here, as we'll as
to counteract the baleful influence Of Radical
demagogues who went to the Capital to fur
fher the cause of the Radicals
Kellogg's Crowd have comported themselves
in keeping with Radical supremacy Their
power has resulted in the gang growing dis
satisfied, and Bill Ward, Of Grant parish,
being expelled from Hahn's Wing on account
Of threatening the life of a. fellow-member.
The angel of death. Wiring the week, has
called home a numbeEof our citizens, among
them Harmon Doane, whose death created
blank in commercial and social circles which,
it is feared. can never be reAlled.x
The week throughsutha fbeen an exciting
one, popular feeling Bang greatly exercised

WHEN THE SULTAN GEES TO LSPAHAN.

When the Sultan Shah Zaman
Goes to the city Of Ispahan,
Even before he gets 80 far
As the place where the clustered palm-trees are
At the last Of the thirty palace-gates,
The flower of the harem, Rose in Bloom,
Orders 3 feast in his favorite room
Glittering squares Of colored ice,
Sweetened with syrup, tnctured with spice;
Creams, and coriials, and sugared dates,
Syrian applos, Othmanee ounces,
Lines and citrons, and apricots,
And wines that are known to Eastern prin ces
And Nrbian slaves, with smoking pots
Ofspiced meats and costliest fish.
And all that the curious palate could wish,
Pass in and out Of the cedarn doors;
Scattered over mosaic floors
Are anemones, myrtle and violets,
And musical fountain throws its jets
OF hundred colors into the air.
The dusk Sultana loosens her hair,
And stains with the henna plant the tips
or her pointed nails, and bites her lips
I'LL they bloom again; but alas, that rcse
Not for the Sultan buds and blows!
Not for the Sultan Si.ah-ZGman,
lVte" he goes to the city Ispdhan.
Then, at wave Ct her sunny hand,
The dancing girls of Samarcand
Glide in Ike shapes from fairy land,
Making sudden mist in air
Of Beecy wells and floating hair,
And white arms uplif5ed. Orient blood
Buns in their veins, shines in their eyes;
And there, in this Eastern Paradise,
Filled with the breath Of the sandal wood,
And Khoten musk, and aloes and myrrh,
Sits Rose-in-Bloom on elk divan,
Slipping the wines of Astrakhan;
And her Arab lover sits WITH her.
1'hdts ,o'ten the sultan Shah Zan.an
Goes to the city Ispahan.
Now, when I see an extra light,
Flaming, pickering on the night,
From my neighbours easement opposite,
know as we'll as know to pray

That The innocent Sultan iS2tals-Zanaan
lias gone to The city Ispahan.

OLD BLANDFoRD CHURCH

The following beautiful lines are attributed
TO Tyrone Powers, the Irish comedian, who
was lost on the steamer President:
Thou are crumbling to dust, old pile,
Thou are Fastening 10 the fall
And round thee in thy loveliness,
Clugs the ivy to the wall;
The worshpers are scattered now
Who knelt before the shrine;
And silence reigns where anthems rose,
In the days of "Auld Lang Syne."
And sadly signs the wandering wind
Where oft in years gone by,
Prayers rose from many hearts TO Him
The Highest of the High.
The tramp of many a busy foot,
That sought thy aisles is DER,
And many weary heart around
Is still forevermore. HE
How doth Ambitions hope take wings,
How droops the spirit now?
We hear the distant city's din,
The dead are mute below:
The sun that shone upon their paths
Now gilds their lonely graves,
The zcphyrs which once famed their brows
The grass above them waves.
o could we call the many back
Who've gathered here in vain
Who've careless roved where we do now,
Who'll never meet again
How should our very hearts be stirred
To meet the earliest gaze
OF the lovely and the beautiful
The lights of Others days.
sold Banford Church is near Petersburg,

quoted on the walls of the Church, at time
when he had an engagement in Petersburg.
