VERY BELLTGEREST TALK.

Washington Special to the New YOgk Herald.
1--WE are not now prepared for war, -
said a prominent Republican tonight.
"The Spanish iron-clads are more than
a match for ours. They are all well
built and are the most formidable of
their class In the world. They could
play havoc with our coast, and would
soon make the war unpopular. What
would be the use of our raYaging or
capturing Cuba if the Spahiards shOald
meantime blockade our ports, lombard
those cities which they could reach and
do more damage in a month than
would pay twice over for Cuba" ''The
President is too shrewd to play his
Cuban card nOw," said another. "He
will reserTeit until he gets Democratic
Congress before him, and then put the
Democrats in the fatal position of a
peace party In time to catch them trip
ping in the next election" at means
really nothing said a third, "and is
mischievous only because it Will excite
the hopes Of CuUan bond gamblers. If
the appropriation asked for had not
been brought before the country IN a
special message from the President,
but had been quietly suggested and put
in the appropriation bills, no fuss
would have been made and the money
would have been given; for it Is neees-
sary, even if we did not have a war for
twenty years. But in its present shape
it will appear an extraordinary and
threatening measure, and may be used
for stockjobbing purposes both here
and abroad" 1--WE shall have no war
with Spain for a year at least" was a
remark which closed the conversation.

LOUISIANA.
Northern Residents Of ShreVe-
port Brand Maj. Merrill
as a Liar.
A Truthful Statement as to the
Condition of Affairs in
that Section Of
the State.

SHREVEPORT, La, Jan. 23.-We, the un-
designed, Northern residents of Shreye-
port, La, have read with inexpressible as
tOnishment the statements made by Gen.
Merrill aud Others, representing this COM
munity in a condition of anarchy and its
people lawless and defiant, stating that in
this vicinity there are not less than 250
political criminals; that the freedmen
are Systematically maltreated and cheated
Of their earnings, and that 1000 have been
driven from their homes in penury. We
most sOlemnly assert that all such state
ments are baseless Misrepresentation and
abSurdly false. There is no lawless-
ness here, nor in this vicinity, that has
come to our knowledge. The only
disorders that We have known were made
by this military slanderer, just before the
election, by sending his soldiers raiding
over the country, alTesting unresisting cit
liens for imaginary offenses, who have not
been held for trial because there was no
evidence Of guilt. If ordinary crimes ar
not vigorously punished by our present
judicial authority, it is through no fault of
the intelligent and virsuous part Of the
community, who have had no voice in their
selection. If any tenantry have been
extent, and mostly, if not altOgeth-
er, the vagabOnds and vicious. If there
be any destitution among the cOlOred
people, it is in no sense from want Of re-
munerative employment. The relation Of
the two races is unusually friendly, arising,
doubtless, from the fact that at the recent
election many colOred men voted with the
taxpayers the Conservative ticket. We
think the good order here quite remarkable,
when we reflect that the parish
officials and representatives, who were
elected by 900 majority in as orderly an elec
tiOn as was ever witnessed, have been
for the second time cheated out of their
success by the present ruling dynasty. We
will only add, that the statements referred
toare so OUtrageOusly false and groUndleSs,
that they could only have originated in a
crazy brain or poorly concealed malice.

Ten or twelve yea1s ago there was a
miner working in the upper levels Of the
COmsiOck at 81 per day. He lived in a
little cabin down the canyon; did his own
cooking, and whistled softly s.There's a
good time coming, boys" To-day that
miner walks about the streets Of Virginia
City, as cordial as in the old days; he
dresses no better than any ordinary gentle
man Of Virginia, and eats no better food
than a conscientious editor ought to have.

list daily, he is so rich that, were his stocks

THE SENATORIAL SITUATION


BY the withdrawal, yesterday, Of
Messrs. Brown, Stephens and Quarles,
the Senatorial contest assumed a new
and decidedly interesting aspect. 1t
was thought that either Mr.. johnson
OF Gen. Bate would certainly be elected
during the afternoon session, but Mr..
Ewing commanded sufficient strength
to prevent such result. With regard
to the last named gentleman, it may be
stated that he expressed a willingness
to have his name withdrawn, IN case
his friends should think proper to pur-
sue such a course, hut they IN
sisted that he remain in the race.
Our report shows that Gen. Bate came
within one vote Of election, and that,
lust before adjournment, he was three
votes ahead of Mr.. johnson. Three Of
the latter's adherents were absent. The
friends of both candidates are sanguine
of their election, and are straiuing every
nerve to make the first ballot to-mOr-
row a decisive one. In the meantime,
It is reported that one or two aspirants,
not vet voted for, VIII be brought for
ward. We have heretofore refrained
from speculating as to the chances Of
the respective candidates; but now
with all the points Of the situation full
" before us, and approaching the IN
tense anxiety of the people u know
who is likely to win, we do not hesitate
to say-and say it boldly-that we
know even less about it than when the
fight opened.
