THAT BRIBERY HOAX AGAIN.

The case of J. c. Levy, who was charge
with attempting to bride two members of til
Radical Legislature came up for trial at Staes
Court last evening at 81 o'clock.
Mr.. Levy was represented by Mr.. Whita
ker, while G. W. Lowell appeared as counse
for the prosecution.
The merits Of the case were not gone into
for Mr.. Whitaker correctly maintained tina
as there was no bride offered or accepted
there was no offense that could be brough
home to Mr.. Levy under the statutes O
Louisiana. Jones and Demas, the prosecu
tors in the case, were simply allowed to vol
unteer their statements of the affair, the rieh
Whitaker.
Mr. Jones' of the parish of Pointe Coupee,
was put on the stand, and gave the following
version Of the alleged bribery:
saw Mr.. Levy at the State House on the
i4th Of. January last As was going I'D
stairs he followed me, and said: Is your name
Jones? told him yes. He said, will you
leave town for twelve hours? l will give YOU
$1,000. l said to him, III see yo. agaia. 7
cannot do this
Joe Armstrong asked me, what did that
man want Of you? l told him he offered me
$1,000 to 60 away from here. l said to Joe, I
can't see the point. That's ALL
Henry Demas, Representative from the
parish of st. John the Baptist, was next
called upon, and gave the following testimony,
to wit:
saw Levy on the l4th Of last January at
the State House, between the hours of II and
pam.
Levy approached me as 1 was going into
the hall of the House and said ''good day." He
then asked me when / was in St. John last |
l answered that I had just left there the
Sunday before. He then asked me if would
like to go back on a pleasure trip. l told |
him would not leave the House Of Repre-
sentatives to 60 to st. John. He told me he
would make it pay handsomely if would 60.
told him l would be compelled to decline.
He then told me if would go up to St. John
and stay there forty-eight hours he would give
me $4,000 and he would further guarantee
me the patronage of my parish for the next
Two years. told him l could not accent it.
lie then told me that a good many mem
tbers OF the Legislature had accepted SINH
lar proposition. asked him what was his
object IN doing this. He answered to re-
organize their House of Representatives. He
told me be would see me at O'Clock. to re- i
ceive my answer. That's all.
This concluded the statements of the prin-
cipal actors in the drama. ,
After some little discussion between the
lawyers on either side whether the case .
should not Immediately be dismissed or con. ,
dnued in higher court, Judge Staes decided s
it as best to send it to the Superior Criminal q
Court under the same amount of bonds nc q
heretofore, that is to say, under $500 on each j
count. .
Thus has this sdoughty" trial ended at e
present, ta4

Extraordinary interruption of divine service
that was at Portland-what Portland we haynt
been able to find out-but out West some
where. In the very middle of the long
prayer, up rises maniac stage-dryer and OBJ
serves to the congregation that he wishes it
to be distinctly understood that he possesses
"a horse that will trot in two minutes" It
only took just half that time to trot the poor
man out Of the temple. The owners of the
miraculously swift steeds may think of them
silently in church time, but talking out loud
about them in meeting is contrary to every
one Of the Thirty-nine Articles.
