An Outline of the Conspiracy.

In Louisiana the case is bad enough
as it is, but suppose out of these events
should come collision of the people
with the troops. What then? 1t
would be a collision that would arise
from popular fury, for the citizens are,
it is clear, resolutely resolved against
the resort to-violence. 1t would be
an outburst of popular passion over
riding the restraints of better judg-
ment. Therefore it would not be re-
sistance of the sort that suddenly arose
in September. Itwould not surrender
at any formal show OF authority or in
any spirit of discretion. 1t would
fight. Somebody would be hurt Nat
urally the people who would be most
hurt would be the small force of United
States troops on the spot, compelled to
face a whole population of resOlute
and desperate spirits. The troops
would be driven out and the people
would hold the city. Grant would.
thereupOn. take command in person. ="
He would concentrate all the availab BILE
force of the government and endeavOr
to take the city; but he would proba-
bly, fail, for in support of the people
of New Orleans would Immediately
rally, to fight their battles over again,
the whole of the population of Missis-
sippi, Alabama, Georgia, Texas, and
Arkbnsas, and the men who once
marched under the Confederate colors.
We would be in the presence of a new
rebellion, fomented by the executive,
and the President would call on con-
gress for treops-and money. Would
congress vote them? There can be no
doubt of it. 1t must be remembered
that this congress still represents the
principles and the party that the
country has repudiated at the polls,
and in the chance of new conflict
and a revived rebellion it would see
the hope of renewed bold on the
nation. 1t would vote the President
the hundred thousand men he wants,
and if within year from this time
Grant has command of one hundred
thousand men, the next election for
the Presidency will be held at the
Greek kalends, or wherever else his
excellency may please BY all means,
then, let there be no conflict, for that
is the thing that is most desired by the
military satrapy of the White House,
which has Grant in its hands.-Nel0

PosTAGE.-We were of opinion that
it would require twenty cents to pre-
pay postage on our paper when sent
out of the county, but we find, since
testing it, that fifteen cents will meet
it. Persons wishing to take the paper
for six months, will have to remit ten
cents to pay the postage. We hope no
one will ask or expect US to send them
the CHRONICLE without the cash. All
owing us prior to Jan. l, of the pres
ent year, viii confer d great favor by
remitting the same at once, as we are
in pressing need of money.

says of it: Its awardSare appraised
at a figure that may well abash human

and suicide as best they may. In the
darkest hour of our own sorrow we
challenged its authority; found out it
was only bolstered up by the caprices
of men like ourselves compared our
selves with them and were pleased
with the contrast. Ever since, We pre-

Whatever is deemed unnatural in our
humanity or unwise in our legislation

This most valuable adjunct TO the

jackson, filed report in this Office,
accompanied with the compilation
known as "Tbe Resources of Tennes-
see" by j. B. Killebrewe the able and
efficient Secretary. which is proving
to be the most valuable publication
ever made for the State. This bureau,
hitherto so successful, should be fos-
tered and ample means placed at its
command to present the attractions OF
Tennessee to the world in true. but
just terms. Many other States sith
far less to commend them to the hon.
est laborer or the enterprising capital
lists are multiplying in population and
wealth through heinstrumentality we
have overlooked, until the creation OF
this bureau. This inauguration of a
good work should be followed up by
cooperative instrumentalities, calcu-
lated to utilize and make more prac-
tically efficient the unexpected results
already accomplished by the labors Of
this board. What was intended as a
mere experiment by the act of Dec
IA, ISL, which created theiBureau OF
Agriculture, has so far transcribed
the most sanguine expectations OF
those of us who favored it, as to en-
courage such enlargement of the agen-
cies as will readily suggest themselves
to the friends of agriculture, mining,
commerce, immigration-indeed, all
development of the industries and ad-
vancement of the material prosperity
of the State. 1t is suggested that

under the care of this bureau, may be

THE estate OF ALABAMA"
CASE.
.gt -- 49, = 80 ~ sfF2 III
The Attorney General Says That,
1t is a Question Of Inter-
national Law.

On Monday our reporter waited on Attor-
ney General Field and requested his views as
to the case Of the steamship estate OF Ala
bama." The Attorney General was unable to
give legal opinion as to the points at issue,
not having as yet looked up the law on the
subject. He stated, however, that 1t was
simply question of international law, and
was probably point clearly defined in the
treaty between the United States and England.
In citing the case of Mason and Slidell as
perhaps q precedent, he remarked that that
case differed only as to the situation of the
English vessels, one was on the high seas, the
other at an American port. The question as
to the justification of the English captain in
protecting his sailors from arrest for commit
ting crime in an American port will, no
doubt, be clearly defined when the legal
points have been examined. Should the law
decide adversely 10 the captain, remarked Mr..
Field, he will be made q party to the crime
as having harbored accused persons suspected
of criminality, and steps will be taken for
his arrest on the return of his vessel to this
port. adt I.a
The Attorney General concluded by stating
his intention of giving the case his closest
scrutiny, as it will, without doubt, bring
about heightened correspondence between
the authorities here and the English Consul,
and perhaps between the United States and
England. LII RI. s.... s....
