Of the dilemma. But for Madams Van
Zandt's amiability, last week. the public
wosld have found closed doors q the
0lobe more than once. Three times did
this brave little prima donna come 70 the
rescue, and run the risk Of lessening her
own popularity by unannounced substi:
tutions for Miss Kellogg. Last Wednes.

sing in the evening, she accepted an invi.
tation to lunch sat. ., friends 1T the w est

her carriage, the management arrives III
hot haste, and demands madame's in
slant appearance. Madame, however, has
shut herself up, waiting. an opportunity
to fly through tho back door, and the un-
lucky director walks tho floor meanwhile.
At length chance Of escape offers, and
madame departs via the laundry, and ar.
rives at her destination an hour behind
time. Scarcely is the party seated 1T the
table when carriage dashes up to the
door, the bell rings violently, and manly
voice inquiries if MADAME Van Zandt is
there" The little prina donna, seeing
it's al up with her fun. and that opera
directors are not to be eluded, rushes to
the door. "For heavens sake, don't

and then, after this exhibition of

The comforting Of the printing on the
Republican has always been a sore
spot on Mr.. JEWELS skin, since he,
who was Senator at the time, proposed
to vote for the printing bill if $4,000
worth Of printing under it should be
given to the Commercial BuHatin, of
which he was editor, and ghich PROPOSE
ton was declined.

many, with the insinuation that re.
ceiyed or owned any interest in any OF
them, except what paid for, is abso.

any of them was some shares | pur.

and sold, after keeping them eight
months, for $50. never ewned a

established. As for the Chattanooga
Railroad Swindle," rs it is called by the
Bulletin, | remember well that Mr..
Jewell was an ardent supporter Of
that measure, in the Commercial Bill
L2tiR, ON the street, and in the opening
NEE ting held in relation to it. and, il
there were any corrupt agencies en-.
ployed by that Company, It is not un.
likely that Mr.. Jewell felt their intlu

IL these charges are true which Mr.
Jewell makes against me, will he ex.
plain how it was that he was such O

Let me remind Mr.. Jewell that the
political measures Of which he complains
so much, and for which do not decline
the responsibility which rightly belong,
to me, were drawn up, approved, and
lobbied through the Legislature BY hi,
friends, Packard, Lowell, and Ray
with whom he acted in 1871, and in
whose cause, astri1e his "white horse,

Converting of the louisiana Legis-
tnTP.

The Louisiana Legislature met Mon
day, and as was expected, there was
stormy and exciting time. Previous to
the meeting, in anticipation of trouble,
troops and metropolitan police had been
stationed on all the approaches to the
State House. At u NJ, the members
of the House assembled in the Hall, and
the roll was called showing l02 mem
bers present. A motion was then imme-
diately made and carried that Hon. l..
A. Wiltz, (the present Democratic
Mayor Of New 0rleans), be made Speak.
er. On this the utmost confusion pre-
vailed. Finally comparative quiet was
restored, the Speaker appointed ser.
geant-at.arms and temporary clerk.
Another scene OF confusion
then followed, after which five
members thrown out by the returning
board were sworn in and took their
seats. From this time out the scene
was one Of the widest excitement and
confusion, members of both sides being
on the floor at the same time, in the
midst of which Gen. Beforehand and
two members Of his staff entered the
hall, and in the name of Ger. Emory,
commanding the U. S. army in New
Orleans, and in response to request by
Gov. Kellogg, demanded that the five
conservatives rejected by the return.
ing board, and previously sworn in,
should leave the hall. Speaker Wiltz
objected, that this action was an out
rage upon the rights of Louisiana, which
was overruled and the members elected.
Upon this the conservatives refused to
t axe any farther part in the proceed
ings. finally Withdrawing to meet
Tuesday in separate organiza-
ton. The Republicans then
elected Michael Hahn speaker, and also
swore in two contested members. Gov.
kellogg's MESSAGE was then presented
and read. 1t shows that in the past
two years The State debt has been con-
siderably reduced, taxation has been
decreased from 81 to 20 mills, and that
there is good prospect of speedily
funding the entire debt, thus largely
diminishing its face value.
The day was one of great excitement
throughout the city. but there was no
outbreak. The whole proceedings we're
witnessed by the special congressional
committee now in the city, and their
report of the affair will be watched with
considerable interest.

ALABAMA.
The Use Made of the RatiOus for the
OvcrfiOwed--The Promises Made
10 the Negroes Before Election by
the Carpet-Baggers.

The Congressional committee in Ala.
bama has divided to hold examinations
simultaneously at Opelika and Mont.
gomery. There were numerous witnes.
SEES as to outrages in Lee county. One
witness told Of army bacon, intended
for the sufferers from oyerilows, which
was sent to the 0pelika district, seven
ty miles away, anu was given in charge
of the carpet-bagger candidates who
were not required to furnish proof as to
its distribution; 5000 pounds was Civ
en- out at one negro meeting house in
payment for votes. Some negroes
swore they had bsen discharged for vot-
ing the Republican ticket, while Others
swore they had been beaten by Repub-
ican negroes, turned out Of their
churches and mistreated. for being Dem.
ocrats. Others testified that before
the late election the Republi.
can candidates promised to divide
the white Democrats lands among
them, and the furniture and bedding,
and household property. The negro
witnesses all complained that none OF
their promises were kept. The general
run Of testimony was to the effect that
no Republican meeting was disturbed
by Democrats, but that riots and rows
were frequent between Radical factions,
often terminating in bloodshed, and
once in death by pistol shot. II was
also proved by Republicans that every
case Of murder on the docket here was
Of negroes, for the murder Of negres
being some fifteen or twenty in the past
eighteen months. Also that every off.
cial in the county and the presiding
judges were Republicans. 1t was
proven that in two or three instances
in the late canvass a few negroes were
kicked by some drunken Democrats.

lSOLATihG INDIANS.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3l.--The Bureau
of Indian Affairs has issued circular
letter to superintendents and agents Of
the Indian Department, instructing
them to notify the several bands
or tribes of Indians UNI
der their supervision that they
must coniine themselves wholly
within the limits OF their respective re-
servations; that under no pretext must
they leave without special permit in
writing from the egc... "a superinten-
dent, and that no permit will be grant
ed by an agent or superintendent I'M
less it shall be made to appear to his
satisfaction that its issuance will
enure to the benefit of the
applicant and will in no event be likely
to prove Instantaneous to the disci-
pline of the Indian service. When
ever it shall be deemed to be either
necessary or judicious to grant a per-
init, immediate application should be
made, before its issuance, to the com
manding officer Of tho nearest mill
tary force, who will furnish
sufficient guard 10
accompany and remain with the Indians
as long as they remain within the white
settlements; and who will require
their passage through such settlements
to be as expeditions as possible. The
Indians are to be warned that without
the protection guaranteed to them
by written permit and military guard
or escort they are liable to be looked
upon and treated as hostile bands.
