Louisiana : Kansas.
From Harper's Weekly.l

The difference between Rcpubli-
caus in the Louisiana question aud
Democrats in the Kansas qu-ation in
1856 is that Republicans frankly con-
demn the unauthorized use Of the
army, and the Democrats vociferously
appla,,aed it. Yet in Louisiana it
waS mistakenly used in defense of the
oppressed in KaDsas it was inten-
ti0nahy prt,stituted to help the op-
pressax- Here is the story Of the

Just before twelve o'clock Colonel

Judge Ikelly on the Condition Of the


South.
WASHINGTON, April 30.-Judge William
u. hellv, Of Pennsylvania, returned from 3
siE-weeks' tour in the South to-day, and
Tears most emphatic testimony against the
southern policy Of his own party In the last
Congress. When asked what he thought of
the political condition Of the South he said :
1.-THE vote most regret during my fourteen
years. service in Congress is that which
cast last winter in favor of the force biIl.D
He further said that so far as bis observation
went during his tour there was no more
necessity for the use of Federal military force
there than there is IN PeDnsy lvania or Ohio.
He talked with all classes Of people, aud was
surprised at the good feeling existing. He
gave an example OF the feeling 10 the South
by relating what he saw in Augusta, being
himself unknown. He happened to be 10
that city on the day chosen for decorating
the graves of the Confederate dead. He OBJ.
served the significant fact that while men and
women were, gathered to pay tribute
to the memory OF the dead Confed-
crate soldiers, the principal music on
the occasion was furnished by the
band belonging to regular United States
infantry regiment stationed in the vicinity.
There were no taunts. no insults. no com.
plants, and no appearance of ill.teelng was
anywhere visible. The most of bis
time was spent in Florida. He says
so far as he saw there was no feel.
ing of fear or distrust on the part
of the colored people, and be could not for
the life Of him see what use there was for
force bills. He was very glad to have made
the trip, for it enabled him to understand
the condition Of the South better than he has
ever understood it before. Judge Kelly at.
tributes the deplorabe condition of affairs q,
the South to the financial policy of the Co.
Yernment

En- parte Martin Webb: Upon the return
OF the habeas corpus IN this case before me,
and the hearing thereof on this day, it ap-
pears from copies Of the rules and DEGREES OF

that said bankrupt was required 10 procure

and said injunction perpetuated; and It
was shown in evidence that said bank
