State Of which he was Governor,
It is seriously to be douhted
that he would have been killed. From
the Stte-hOuse, before he had been driven
to the CustOm-h0use, a cal was made in
accordance with the fourth section, fourth
article Of the Constitution Of the United
States for the aid Of the General Govern
ment 10 suppress domestic violence. Under
those Circumstances, and in accordance
with my sworn duty, my proclamation Of
the 18th Of Septembsr, 1874, was issued.
This served to reinstare Gov. .Kell0gg TO
his position nOminally, bur il cannot be
claimed that the insurgents have to this
day surrendered 70 the state authorities
the arms belonging 10 the STATE, or that
they have in any sense disaTmed- On the
contrary, il is known thar the armed OF
ganizatiOn that existed on the 18th Of Sep
tember, 1874, in opposition TO the rec0g-
nizet State Government, still retain their
organization, equipments and commanders,
and can be called out at any hour to
resist the State Government. Under
these circumstances, the same military
force has been continued in Louisiana as
was sent under the first call, and under the
same general instructions. / repeat that
the task assumed by the troops is not a
pleasant one; that tha army is not com
posed Of lawyers, capable Of Judging at
moments notice Of just bow far they can
90 in the maintenance of law and order,
and that it was impossible TO give specific
instructions providing for au possible con
tingencies that might arise. The troops
were bound % act upon the Judgment
Of com mmanding officers upon each sudden
contingency that arose, or wait instructions
which could only reach them after the
threatened wrongs had been committed,
which they were called on to prevent. u
must be recoIlected, too, that upon my re-
cognitlOn Of the Kellcgg government, re-
ported the faes with the grounds Of the re-
cOgnit on t. Congress, and asked that body
to lake action in the matter, otherwise ]
should regard their silence as asgJIiescing in
my course. NOaetiOB has been taken bY ilial
body, and have maintained the position
marked out. If error has heen c0mmitted
BY the arr1y IN these matters, it has always
been on eside ofthe preservation Of good
order the maintenance Of law ard the
protection Of life. Their bearing reflects
credit upon the soldiers, and if wrOne. has
resulted the blame with the turbulent cle-
menls surrounding them, mrlsl not rest on
them.
1 nov earnestly ask that such action be
taken by Congress as to leave my duties
Periec. .ly clear ia dealing with afi1iIs in
Louis ana, giving assurance at the same
time that whatever may be done by that
body In the premises, win be executed &C
cofding TO the spirit and letter Of the law,
withclt fear or favor.
/ herewith transmit copies Of documents
containing mere specific information as 70
the subject matter Of the resolution.

GRANI's MESSAGE ON LOUISIANA.
The message on Louisiana affairs
sent to Congress yesterday by Presi-
dent Grant, while assuming to discuss
the questions involved with fairness
and candor, is, nevertheless, a violently
partisan document. For those who
do not care to wade through
it, the following summary may,
perhaps, suffice: The President
sets out with a narrative of the politi-
cal events in Louisiana In their rela-
ton to the Administration. The en-
tire subject is treated IN very nearly
the same manner that it was in the
message Of last year, describing
his reluctance" to interfere In
the affairs of that State, and
his unwiLingness to use the
United States army for the Preserva-
tion Of peace or the support Of the
State Government. a telegram to
Governor Kellogg is quoted
him Of Federal sup
port to maintain him IN rightful au-
thority. The keynote Of the Presi-
dents action is the pretense that the
White League intend to obtain control
of the State government Of Louisiana,
whatever means may be necessary.
The message recites that he was COM
mitted to the Kellogg government by
the action of thecourts, andby his mes
sage to Congress two years ago, and that
if any blame attaches, Congress, by its
inaction, is largely responsible. The
President winds up by urging the i'm
mediate adoption of a definite policy
toward the people Of Louisiana, for
whom he has already done his worst.

SheFidRn's Tale OF BIOOd.
The reports accompanying the Presi-

nous. Among them is a report from Gen.
Sheridan, dated Jan. 10, in which he says.
''Since the year 1866, nearly $500 peO-
pie, great majority of whom were colOred
men, have been killed and murdered in
this State. In 1868 the official record shows
that 1854 were killed and wounded. Fro m
1868 to the present time, no official
investigation has been made, and
the civil authorities, in all but
few cases, have been unable 70
arrest, convict and punish the perpetra-
