POLITICAL ON DIT.

preparing for the coming committee. Th
whole machinery, Of which Kellogg is tn

facture the evidence needed to substantial
the bloody stories heretofore circulated, an
the faithful in every parish have been re
quested to send along their mortuary reports
The poor unfortunates whose color happen
to be black, and who may have ended thei
mortal career whilst indulging in nocturna
amusements around hen roosts are subjected
to the post mortem indignity of being place,
in the category Of "killed for their politica
opinions" No matter how any colored ma,
may have met the old gentleman who is sale
to take his afternoons exercise on pale horse
if there is a shadow Of chance he is thrown
into the pile to build up the intended Radi-
cal skull and cross bones monument.
From what we learn the probabilities are
that Kellogg will secure evidence enough te
show that every negro in Louisiana was muir.

THAT COMMITTEE.
The kilograms from Washington announc-
ing that Marshall, of Illinois, had reconsld.
cred his resolution and is en- route for this
city, was anything but mama to the Egyp.
tians at the State House. They had proposed
to have the three Republican members -Hoar,
Wheeler and Frye-all to themselves, and Sc
cure just such a coat Of whitewash as they
have SO long desired, but now they express
openly their opinion that Marshall will seri-
ously hamper the !" original intention of Con-
gress in selecting this committee"
HARD ON CLINTON
There is evidence that the St. LOUIS street
gang are notthoroughly conf dent of Clinton s
entire loyalty, and fear that he may be what
is called, in jockeys parlance, little shaky.
This question is very important one to them.
inasmuch as the scholarly signature of Clinton
on certain instruments, yclept warrants, is
what they have inundated themselves for
Their fears, however, do not prevent them
from making mock show Of going through
his books, but it is mutually understood, no
doubt, that if Clinton is all right, the books
are.
The doubts as to Clinton calls up Kellogg's
complete consignment to obscurity so far as
his political influence is concerned. The
"Gubner," whose name was once, like the
school boys chewing gum, in everybody's
mouth, is now not the least regarded by the
Solons, and his opinions are actually not
worth repetition either on the floor or in the
lobby. Members talk of him az if he was
some mythical being, in this world only
through the credulity Of it's inhabitants Pitt
is among the things that were in his own
tribe.
THE CONSERVATIVE MEMBERS
still preserve an unbroken front. Meeting
every morning promptly with full attend
ance, they 60 into executive session to DELHI
crate upon the situation Of our affairs, and
the means of remedying our evils From what
can be cleaned on the outside of their trans
actions, it is certain that the people of
Louisiana will be satisfied with their labors
when the time will come for them to know.
THE ms AND OUTS
are considerably mixed regarding the rumorel
changes. Tax-collectors -four inspectors, as
SCISSORS ct I'd omnes genus are rallying their
hackers, and Pitt is in turns cajoled and bull
lied by rival clans. There can be no doubt
but what he is changing his tactics or rather
turning his back on some of his former
friends. To-day will probably settle the fate
Of most Of these aspirants.
WHO THE NEXT v1cEGEEENT
will be it is rather difficult to say. Pardee
men here still declare his success is assured
and that the press dispatches are entirely
without foundation in fact, whilst new clan
intimate that Beckwith is in the field and in i.
prime favor with the betting men.
A number of new names were spoken of.
but the interest appears to be centered on the !

SOMETHING NEW IN LEGISLATION. IL
1t will be remembered that when the parish Z
If Terrebonne was before the Returning '
Board, returns from certain polls were miss Q
ng, and their absence was accounted for by n
he supervisor Of Registration, who said he n
,ad refused to receive them from the commits
ioners because they were not handed in n
within the time specified by law.
Legal proceedings were instituted before
he Parish Court to obtain copies of the re- y
urns in the ballot.boxes, and the court
rdered that the clerk, Anthony Drayton, .
hould make the copies. The clerk refused Id
o obey the order of the court, and he was >
emoved by the court and new clerk =
Tas appointed, who made the copies as re- tt
uired.
The board, however, refused to receive :, -
hem, and the result Of the election in the U
arish was changed and Republican Repre- r.
