STATE VS.. THEN. OIL .&T.R.R.
: All Suits Off:

| The Messrs. Ames and w. H. Bushnell
Esq, from the North, together with severa
of ''our citizens" had protracted interview
with the Governor yesterday, in reference t.
the New Orleans, Mobile and Texas Railroad
The result of the interview as stated by thu
Governor was that he and the Attornev Gen
eral, on behalf of the State, agreed to submit
the case of the State against the road fol
$780, 900, now pending in the United States
Circuit Court on it's merits, without further
proceedings.
Mr.. Semmes was called on at the latter part
of the conference, before the agreement was
signed, and stated it as his opinion that the
State could gain nothing by the suit.
The Governors explanation of the proceed
ings is more fully embodied in the following
communication, addressed to the Attorney
General:
STATE OF LOUISIANA, J
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.,
New Orleans, May 10, 1875.
Hon. A. P. Field Attorney General:
Sr-A number of prominent gentlemen of
the commercial community have waited upon
me, representing that the attitude Of the
State in the suits pending in the United States
Circuit Court with regard to the New Orleans,
Mobile and Texas railroad is complicatinQ the
negotiations which are now progressing by
which it is hoped that road to Texas may be
completed at an early day.
am advised by competent counsel fully
conversant with the merits of the case that
the interests of the State involved in the liti-
cation are not large or important; and am
satisfied that the early completion of the road
will be of greater benefit to the State than for
the State to seek to maintain its present posi-.
ton in the courts.
1t is proposed, believe, to reorganize the
board OF directors SO that it shall consist of
eight prominent gentlemen of this city and
five Northern capitalists. The gentlemen of
New Orleans selected as directors are, un-
derstand, Messrs. John Phelps, T. II. Hunt,
Patrick Irwin. s. q. Kennedy, Joseph d.
Oglesby. a. Bohne, Louis Schneider and A.
W. Stafford. The fact that gentlemen SO
largely interested in the welfare of the city
and State are to compose the majority of the
directory in the new enterprise. to whom are
to be tranferre1 the rights and franchises of
the company, appears tome to be a guarantee
that the interests of the State will be protect
ed, and the road completed at as early day
as possible.
In view of all this, am clearly of opinion
that it is better for the State to submit to i'm
mediate adjudication whatever interest she
may have in the pending controversy, and I
therefore have to request that you will sign
such an agreement as will bring all the mat
ters included in the pleadings before the
courts for immediate and final adjudication.
Very respectfully,
WILLIAM P. KELLOGG.

Clinton a Law Unto Himself.
The Act to Relieve Taxpayers
from Penalties.

It is like repeating twice told tale to have
to recur again to Olinton's entire disregard Of
law and his contempt for our Legislative
enactments. Rising superior to the peoples
will, he assumes prerogatives not dreamed Of
by other State officers, and derisively laughs
when some little respect is asked for what the
lawmakers imagined was binding upon him.
Gov. Kellogg has signed and promulgated
the act "to relieve the delinquent taxpayers
from the payment Of penalties in certain
cases, 4" and it is now the law of the land, and
ought, SO some people think, to be operative
Is to Clinton as well Is to the rest Of the State
officials.
The honest Auditor, however, in the su b.
Unity of his own dogmaticism, declines to
consider this statute Is binding on him. Yes
terday taxpayer went to the Auditors
Office for the purpose Of adjusting his taxes
less the penalties, as provided by act No. Z,
but Old Piety, without giving any reason, re-
fused settlement, and the taxpayer had to
leave, no better for the visit. II this sort of
thing is to continue, and W are to have q
repetition of Clinton's stabbornness, which
was evidenced in his difference with Treasurer
Dubuclet the sooner it is known the better.
Orisons would then ascend for the speedy
trial Of the impeachment case now pending,
and solution of our auditorial troubles.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-During the pas
week the condition of winter wheat in 33l
counties has been reported to the Department
OF Agriculture. About three hundred coun
ties of the valleys of the Ohio and Missouri
are represented which last year produced
7O,OOO, OOO bushels of winter wheat, or sixty
per cent of the product of seven States from
Ohio to Kansas.
The average of condition in these States il
63 per cent, indicating only fve-eiehths of 9
full crop, II no Improvement occurs; in Ken.
lucky IS per cent, Ohio 81, Michigan GO. In.
diana &c, Illinois 63, Missouri 50. Kansas 81.
though only thirty-two counties in the latter
State are represented. The condition is bet
ter in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia,
though below an average.
A few wheat counties in New York make
extremely unfavorable returns. The proper
ton to be replanted in other crops averages
IA per cent in the West, or 1850, 600 acres, in
a breadth of 5000 600 acres seeded. The
largest proportion is ~ per cent in Missouri,
Illinois %, Kansas and Indiana IL, MICHIGAN
and Ohio 10, Kentucky 4. There is to be
very little replanting in the Middle States,
except in New York.
Works Of art by Americans who may wish
to exhibit at the Centennial will be brought
home by national vessels returning. Several
Of these vessels will leave Europe next
winter.

the handsomest man on the floor of the
House last winter. He certainly has most
attractive face The white forehead is high
and full; the large and brilliantly black eyes
have q way of looking at you very squarely.
Not even a moustache decorates the smooth
face, SO you have the full play of pair OF
lips that are very expressive both in silence
and in speech. The lower one is remarkably
curved, pouting just little bit. When he
smiles the happy look goes all over his
face, the eyes twinkle with fun, and he has q
q way Of saying some racy things between his
shut teeth, which sends the listener off into
unlimited laughter.
He very much enjoys a joke, even at his own
"Drawer" for May has furnished him great
deal of pleasure. Cool, adroit, vigilant and
untiring, Mr.. Randall was one of the master
spirits who kept lukewarm Democrats up to
their work during the deadlock la st winter,
and somehow his half pleading "No no
gentlemen I" had much more effect to stop
any measure than the excited depreciation Of
anybody else.
He has trick of walking with his hands
locked behind him, the head slightly st ,op-
ing forward, while half smile, always ready
to extend itself into whole one at your
greeting, is hiding round the eyes.
Mr.. Randall was born in Philadelphia, in Q
house opposite the old Independence Hall
Concerning his earlier years l know very
little, but politics fascinated him before he
was twenty, and at twenty-five he became q
member of the City Council OF the old city,
the youngest man who ever held such posi-
ton. He declares that any affection and
partiality shown him in Philadelphia is en-
tirely due to the position his father occupied
there. but somehow the son has progressed
famously and Philadelphia thinks it would
be very 'snice" if her "Sam," as everybody
calls him, could be "Mr Speaker" during
the Centennial year. Mr.. Blaine's superb

special says the Presidents Cuban IDEAS
have caused loud discussion by the
cabinet, as this nesting will make the
Sd that has been called for its special
consideration. The President thinks the
atrocities in Cuba are occasioned by the
Spanish punish ment Of insurgents, and
subject be will at present leave in she
hands of Congress. 1t lis undoubted that
il Congress does nothing the President
will, provided that the Cuban atrocities
continue, wait till Congress is adjourned
before he will attempt to dictate anything
on his own responsibility. At present
this government has carried its point in
securing the pledge of the Spanish
government to observe the sixth article
of the treaty of 1895 providing for the
proper trial OF Americans violating laws
Of the Spanish dominion. The prepara-
tons in the Navy Department is backing
up the policy of the govern
ment towards Spain in Cuba.
The Navy has been strengthened also as,
if another Congress should see lit to rec
ognizs the bellig erency Of the Cubans it
will be necessary to make showing on
the sea. The President is very pro-
nounced in his desire TO have the Cuban
troubles settled, but as Spain has thus
far shown herself ready to conceds our
demands, many suggestions that would
have been made by the President had the
reverse proven true will be withheld
The message will review at great length
various questions of State and policy
which have arisen during the last year
it will refer to the first Centennial ami
versary of the independence of tn,
Nation. A historical epitome of tn,
country FOR one hundred years of it
history will occupy a very large portion
of the message. Our relations Will
Spain will form one of the most inter
esting chapters of the Presidential dis
course. The recent negotiations will bi
stated at length, showing the direct ques
tons growing out Of the disturbed condi
ton of affairs in China. The Cubai
question is the same as it always ha
been during Grants term; the commo
, school question, rs outlined in his De
Moines speech, is elaborated upon. o
the subject of finances the President n
, iterates what he already said in forme
, messages.
