terest Of Kellogg. Under the law the Return.
ing Board had the power of filling any vacan'
cies among the members thereof. An attemp,
was made to organize the Returning Board
and have the vacancies filed by the election
OF two Republicans, Heron and Lynch being
In the majority, with only Warmoth to oppose.
This was foiled by the appointment of Whar-
ton as Secretary of State. Heron, who had
been only appointed to that position Temporal
rily, being removed for cause by Warmoth.
The actual Secretary of State was Bovee
who had been suspended from Office by Gov.
Warmoth, and who was then suing for pos
session Of said Office under the intrusion act,
and his case was at that time pending in the
Supreme Court of the State. Warmoth and
| Wharton organized one Returning Board and
Heron and Lynch another. A bill in chan
Gerry was instituted by Kellogg on the equity
| side of the United States District Court, and
Judge Durell issued his infamous midnight
interlocutory order, which had no warrant in
law, but was issued at the dictation of the
leaders in the march toward Empire.
The State-House was seized at midnight
and the liberties of the State of Louisiana
stricken down at one fell blow.
In the meanwhile the suit of Bovee was Wig
orously pushed through the State Supreme
Court, the members of which were the crea- |
lures and supporters of Kellogg, and who
promptly decided in favor of Bovee This |
was done to cure any defects in the Kellogg

ron had been removed by Gov Warmoth in
time to render his action unsuccessful.
The Kellogg Returning Board were never
in possession of the returns of the election.
and, therefore, had to make up their data
from files of the New Orleans Republican and
by guess.
1t made very little difference to the Radical
leaders as to the means employed, so long as
the end was accomplished, and no matter hooc
many uotes John McEiaery might hare received,
he merer acoud hare been recognized ty the
President as Governor of Louisiana. Had all
other means failed, Louisiana would have
been reconstructed over again for daring to
oppose the will Of Grant.
McEnery and Kellogg were both inaugu-
ated on the same day, and each claimed to
,e the Governor of Louisiana.
The President recognized Kellogg and de- {
'osed McEnery by force of arms. And on J
hat recognition by the President of man t
whom he had caused to be nominated, whom
e had determined should be Governor
vhether he was elected or not, and whom he
aused to be placed in Office by the bayonet ,
solely on this recognition rests the title of :,
lellogg as Governor of Louisiana. u

The Poor Children.

Do not tease a sick child with
much dressing, but keep it as easy
and comfortable as possible in loose
ly-ftting garments that subject it to
little or no fatigue in their adjust
ment. Beware, though, Of altogeth-
er dispensing with flannel, even in
hottest weather, seeing how varia-
bic is the American, climate, and if
i change is required, let it be made
with all due caution. Gauze flannel
shirts protect the breast and other
vital parts without incommodins any
child, save one with most except
ionally sensitive skin. Death has
been seen to ensue from no graver
cause than the untimely removal Of
a flannel shirt.
The thoushtless parent who lndul-
ges her child with taste of every
tidbit has often sad cause to rue her
imprudence. Witness the case OF a
young mother who helped her eigh-
teen months old baby to a dinner Of
lamb and two Of the tiniest little
new potatoes-wee things just suited
for pretty baby's palate! That night
baby came near dying of cholera in
fantum, and that mother has never
forgotten so severe lesson, in baby
dictetic. Natures provision ofmoth-
cr's milk is of course the best food
and medicine for infancy, but from

Domestic Barbering.

You can always tell a boy whose
mother cuts his hair. Not because
the edges Of the hair look as thcasn
they had been chewcd off by an abb
sent-minded horse, but YOU tell it by
the way he stops on the street and
wriggles his shoulder. When fond
mother has to cut her boys hair she
is careful to avoid any annoyance
and mess by laying a sheet on the
carpet. 1t has never yet occurred
to her to set him on the floor, and
put the sheet around his neck
Then she draws the front hair over
his eyes, and leaves it there while
she cuts that which is at the back
The hair which lies over his eyes
appears to be on FIRE. She has un-
consciously continued to push his
head forward until his nose presses
his breast, and is too busy to notice
the snuffling sound that is becoming
alarmingly frequent. In the mean
time he is seized with an irresistible
desire to blow his nose, but recollets
that his handkerchief is in the other
room. There is a fly lights on his
nose, auddoes itsounexpectcdly it that
he voluntarily dodgcs, and catches
the points of the shears in his left
ear. At this he commences to cry
and. wish he was q man. But his

Directions for Restoring Persons
Apparently Dead by Brown

/. Lose no time; carry out these d.
rections on the spot.
?. Remove the froth and naucus
from the mouth and nostrils.
3. Hold the body for afew seconds
only, with the head hanging down,
so that the water may run out of the
lungs and windpipe.
4. Loosen all articles of clothing
about the neck and chest.
5. See that ae tongue is pulled
forward lift falls back into the throat.
By taking hold Of it with a handker-
chief it will not slip.
6. If the breathing has ceased, or
nearly so, it must be stimulated by
pressure Of the chest with the hands,
in imitation of the natural breath
ing, forcibly expelling the air from
the lungs and allowing it to re-enter
and expand them by the elasticityof
the ribs. Remember that that this
is the most important of all. To do
this readily, lay the person on his
back, with y cushion pillow, or some
firm substance under his shoulders;
then press with the fiat Of the hands
over the lower part of the breast
bone and the upper part Of the abdo-
men, keeping up regular repetition
of the relaxtion of pressure twcntyo or
thirty times minute. a pressure
of thirty pounds may be applied with
safety to grown person.
Z. Rub the limbs with the hands
or with dry cloths constantly, to aid
circulation and keep the body warm.
s. As soon as the person can swal-
low, give tablespoonful of spirits in
hot water, or some warm coffee or tea.
9. Work deliberately; do not give
up too quickly; success has rewarded
the efforts Of hours.

]. Nancy's secret.

Therelived in an old Blown cot:
tage a solitary woman. She: Tended
her little garden, and knit and spun
for her living. She wasknown every
where from village to village, by the
name Of Happy Nancy. She had no
money, no family, no relatives, and
was half blind, quite lame, and very
crooked. There was no comeliness
in her, and yet there, in that home
ly, deformed body, the great God
who lives to bring strength rout Of
weakness, had set His royal seal.
swell, Nancy, singing again?'
would the chance visitor say, as he
stopped at the door.
soh! yes, I am forever at it"
Il wish you'd tell me your secret,
Nancy. You are all alone-you work
hard-you have nothing very pleas
ant surrounding you. What is the
reason you're 50 happy?"
:Pcrhaps its because l haven't got
anybody but God" replied the Great
ure, looking upward. "You see, rich
folks like you depend upon their
families and their houses-thcy've
got to be thinking about their busi-
moss, of their wives and children,
and then they're always mighty
l.afraidof troubles ahead. 1ain't; got
anything to trouble myself about,
YOU see, cause I leave all tothe Lord.
l think, well, if He can keep this
great world in such good ordcr-thc
sun rolling day after day and the
stars shining night after night and
make my garden things come up the
same, season after season-He GER
tainlycan takccarc ofsuch things
as am; and 50 you see leave it all
to the Lord, and the Lord takes care
ofme."
"Well, but, Nancy, suppose a frost
comes after your fruit trees are all in
blossom, and your plants out; sup
pose.
@But don'tsuppose-I never can
suppose-I don't want to suppose, ex-
cept that the Lord will doeverythins
right. That's what makes you peo-
pie feel unhappy-you're all the time
supposing. Now, why can't you
wait till the suppose come, and then
make the best of it,"
She was right. (We canker every
pleasure with'.gloomy fear Of coming
ill.) We seldom trust that blessings
will enter, or hail them when they
come. We should be more childlike
to our Heavenly Father, believe in
His love, learn to confide in His wis
dom, and not in our own; and, above
all, wait till the suppose comes,
and make the best of it.
