L. W. SToUGHToN'S LETTER TO THE
"TIMEs "--THE LOUISIANA CASE" BY the
law of Louisiana it was the duty Of the
clerk Of the House to proceed to the Hall OF
Representatives and there take his seat and
act as presiding officer OF the new House I'm.
til the newly-elected members should organ.
ize by the choice of Speaker"
In this statement of the case there are two
fatal errors. The "laW Of Louisiana" 60.
verning the organization Of the General AS
sembly is the State Constitution, and the
State Constitution contains no provision sim.
liar to that described by Mr.. Stoughton.
The statute of 1872, invalid and inopera.
tive, of course, as lar as it attempts 10 unit
the constitutional powers and prerogatiVes
Of the Legislature, nevertheless contains no
such provision as that which Mr.. Stoughton
assumes to exist in it. The only clause re-
ferring TO the organization Of the House IS
one which declares that the clerk shall read
the roll, and that the persons named on the
roll shall alone participate in the organization.
II does not say that the clerk shall take his
seat and act as presiding officer of the new
House." That is q perfectly gratuitous
assumption. Even if it had said Sc 1t
would have no force, because no Legisla-
ture, unless constitutionaIly authorized so
to act, can bind succeeding Legislature IN
the matter of It's organization. This is so
familiar and sacred principle Of American
parliamentary law that the eminent Dir.
Stoughton ought not to have forgotten 1t.
But in point of fact the statute makes no
such attempt, either in form or spirit. lis
terms were fully complied with. The clerk
did call the roll, and only the persons named
on that roll participated in the organization
which fact disposes OF the great lawyers two
columns and half of nonpsreil.-NcaD Or

CHASDLER's DEFEAT-HoW TIE News W

CHASDLER's DEFEAT-How TIE News WAS
RECEIVED IN DETROIT. -[Detroit Free Press,
January 23.]-Fi(teen minutes after the &C.
ton of the Legislature yesterday had made
United States senator of Judge Christiancy
and consigned Zacbariah Chandler to his
political grave, the news was flashed to De-
troit. There bad been a quiet but intense
excitement among high and low politicians
and the people at large for several days, and
while few believed that a final vote would
be reached yesterday, and others thought
that Chambers chances would improve,
scarcely any one was prepared for the sud-
den and momentous news. 1t struck Girls
void street "in heap" The first dispatches
were directed to prominent Republicans,
and they rubbed their eyes and took Sc.
cond look before rushing out to spread the
weighty information.
"Chandler's knocked endways," was the
exclamation, and it was replied to by
"Thunder are you crazy?"
Some recipients Of dispatches rushed to
the telegraph office and shouted to the clerk
"Here you've made ID Of mistake "
"Guess not" was the reply.
"But Chandler can't be defeated J!
"Wcll, Chrstiancy's elected"
There was more cheering and enthusiasm
during the next two hours than you'd have
been betrayed over the result of half dozen
State elections.
"We've got old lack this time !" man
would shout as he met an acquaintance, and
a crowd would rush up and add:
"Zack'S busted !" "Rings are played !"
Chow are you, t.Office and George Je.
rome! -
One dignifed Democrat, upon bearing the
news, uttered a prolonged war-wboop and
sent his beaver half way across the street,
and others slapped each others backs and
calculated:
"What's this country coming TO- any
way!"
There were some Republicans who, during
the first halEhour, affected to believe that the
news was Democratic sell, aud that later
dispatches would set the sold war horse :"
all right; but when the special dispatch to
the Free Press, giving full details of the
vote, arrived, confirming the first announce
ment, those men inGustriously searched for
knot-holes into which they might crawl and
ponder on the "onsartinty of politics."
The news ran around the city like
fre-alarm, producing Amusement at
first, but next demanding some ex-
preston of satisfaction or sympathy,
in vast majority Of instances the
former. The post.ottice and custom-house
officials and some strictly Radical Republic
cans of course sighed Poor lack !" but a
general count of noses would have shown
that dozen men were enthusiastically or Sc
cretly glad of the senator's defeat where one
was really sorry. Nhmbers of men who had
all along invested largely in Chandler stock
were heard making use of such expressions
as: "Well, it's time for change" sour
folks ought to have known better" "The
people are ripe for change" &c. 1t is safe
to say that he has many less partisans in De-
troit to-day than he had at II O'Clock yester-
day.

LEGISLATIVE ITEMS FROM CHEsTER's LAST
LETTER IN PETERSBURG NEws.-As soon as
the fate of Mr.. John o. Stegar's bill Of $4,000
for services Us an expert in the examination
Of the basement offices is determined Judge
Hunter r. Marshall will advance a claim
(probably $4,000 for aiding the Common
Wealth's attorney Of Richmond in defending
the merchants license-taX.' Judge Marshall
took the case, relying upon the Legislature to
pay him what is proper and just.
General Asa Rogers, Second Auditor, ap-
peared before the Finance Committee this
morning and represented that the confusion
existing in his Office as reported by Mr..
John y. Stegar is the result Of the laws
rather than any fault of his or of any of bis
clerks. think it is true. The public debt
Is worked under 105 different laws, and it
must be- manifest that confusion to some ex-
tent is unavoidable.
1t was thought all Conservatives and the
better class of Republicans in the State were
unanimously in favor Of uiua uoce voting and
prepayment of the pol-tax. Not so. 1t is
doubtful if the amendment proposed by the
Committee on Constitutional Amendments
can be easily carried through the Legislature
unless proper understanding is arrived at
in caucus tomorrow "wednesday night.
The House is still banging away at the
road law. | heard the speech of Genera!
Williams, Of Frederick, in favor of restrict
ing the surveyors and commissioners as to
the length Of time they may compel men to
work upon the roads. With a fine presence,
full clear voice, earnest manner, and graceful
gestures, he combines good sound practical
sense, and thorough acquaintance with every
subject upon which he essays to advise. 1t
is always pleasure to hear him. and by com.
mon consent he is placed in the front rank of
members of the House, with men like Hon.
A. II. Fl. Stuart, Judge Robert Ould, r. A.
CoghilI, General E. K. Bagwell, and General
W. 3. Taliaferro. The House did not finish
the consideration of the bill to-day.

SHEEP RAISING AND Doas.-We invite spe.
cial attention to a communication clipped
from the Old Commonwealth (Harrisonburg)
upon this subject. Its statements of fact are
clear, truthful, and to the point. They are
in perfect accord with information We have
from other reliable sources. Let the people
of this country carefully read and ponder
them. From them itappears that there is in
sheep.raispg profit OF about 100 per cent.
Let them remember that this Zone OF the
most profitable branches of agricultural is
kept down by the mean, sheep.kining dogs
that are permitted to exist in the country.
This Is too expensive . luxury for people
as poor as we are to indulge in. The fact
that these dogs are permitted to exist under
these circunstances, and that their existence
is encouraged by exemption from taxation

is the hope to defeat any perncious radical

The StowcTl Cadetshfp.

The House Committee on Naval Affirs has
not, as has been stated, agreed upon any re-
port in relation to the alleged sale of Il cadet
Ship by Congressman Stowell, of Virginia.
The first consultation in relation to the re-
port to be submitted took place to-day, but
no conclusion was reached, and the discus

unanimous. The whole subject was ad-
iourned until Thursday next. While it is
probable that majority report will be
adopted exonerating Mr.. Stowell from any
direct criminality in connection with the ca

ANDREW JOHNSON Das HIS Politics.
1t having been charged, n order to defeat his
senatorial aspirations, that ex-President
johnson has sought in the past to make
odious the ex-Confederate soldier; that he
has assailed the Democratic party. and that
he is no Democrat, the ex-President has re-
piled as follows, the reply being published in
the Nashville CTenn.) papers of Sunday last !:
" My whole political acts demonstrate that
l exhausted all the powers and prerogativeS
OF the office of President in behalf of Confed-
crate soldiers; and went so far that Con.
greSS, under the influence Of an extreme
party spirit, repealed The amnesty act author
izing the President 10 pardon rebels. Then
fell back to the pardoning power under the
Constitution, and under this power, on the
10Th of December, 1868. issued a procla-
NATION of general amnesty, releasing and re.
lieving all those who had fought against the
flag. This was aSsailed by the Radical lead
ers, but the Supreme Court Of the United
States has within the past year, believe, de-
cided in my favor. When the impeachment
trial was going on my exercise of the par.
donng power was one Of the items of in
curry by the committee. Now as TO my De.
mocracy l think no one who can read can
be ignorant Of my political views. think
am in line with the Democracy OF the nation
and the unwilling testimony of my political
opponents has established that was nomi
mated as a Union Democrat for Vice-Presi
dent, and l think that my whole life shows
me to be Democratic-an unadulterated
