FROM THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
The Approaching Session of Com
grcSS.

grcsS.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-There is q
general impression that the c. ming ses-
sion Of Congress will be turbulent one,
and that most of the time will be occu-
pied in quarreling over Presidential
affairs and contested Southern elections.
Still, there is great deal Of work OF
special Importance to be done in this
short session.
Even if tariffs should not be touched
nor the silver question adjusted, there
are great many schemes which it is
known are to be put through in this ses-
sion if the two Houses can be made to
agree. During the session which pre-
ceded the Presidential election both par
ties were on their good behavior, and
tremendous jobs, railroad and steamboat
subsidies, equalization bounty bills and
other treasury-piundering devices were
given the gc-by until the coming win
ter.
There is so much of this kind of legis-
lation to be done, that it is believed
they will be 10th to spend the time in
party squabbling. 1t may be that while
the atte ton Of the country is attracted
to these more exciting themes, plunder-
ing ones viii go through quietly and
without much fuss. But there is so
many other things TO engross its atten-
tiOn that Congress will not go into any
very serious row about the Presidential
quest tiOu,

Contest -DeceaRed,


Contest deceased.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, Nov. 2S--A special to
the Evening Republican says that Dick
Dunbar, notorious white desperate
ana escaped penitentiary convict, was
hanged at Amite, Louisiana, last night =,
by the whites and blacks OF that place.
Dunbar had committed two murders
and was sentenced to the Penitentiary.
He escaped and killed another man on
Saturday night, and outraged a colored
woman, when he was captured and
hung to tree.
The MetcalIe- Frost Congre essional case
was resumed here yesterday. An Eiec-
ti0n Judge of the Flfth-seventh District
testified that the vote was Frost 277 and
Metcalfe 3l2 and all the witnesses testi-
fed to the vote as being as above given.
Counsel then submitted the case to the
Court, who promised 10 announce de-
cisiou on Wednesday.
At an adjourped meeting Of the Bar,
held yesterday to take action regarding
the death of Judge Knight, fesolutioGs
were adopted expressing their sympathy
with the relations OF the deceased in
their sorrow.

From New Orleans Special to the Enquirer.
Now that the hoof of both Grant and
his Louisiana Returning Board has been
shown, whatever hopes were entertain ed
Of the faintest chance of an equitable
count from tue Board have been dissi-
pated, and the people confront the stern
fact that The fiat has gone forth, and
ii there was 10000 clear majority
1t would be set aside in the same ruth
less way as 1t is now contemplated to
choke the honest expression OF the peo-
pie on an obvious majority. If there be
even a faint hope now, IL is centered on
South Carolina and Florida, and wheH
these are gone the South will look alone
10 Congress and the fuir,minded people
OF the North for assistance. The reye-
lati0ns in the case OF the De Soto returns
have blighted the lingering expectations
OF the most sanguine, and justice is not an
ticipated from any power resident in the
State. The denial Of Democratic repre-
sentation ON the Board; the refusal TO
admit Democratic counsel; the possess
sion of the private seals OF Supervisors
by attaches OF the Board; the postpone
ment OF contests; the subornation Of ig-
norant witnesses, all point to the one
thing, the suppression OF the people OF

The most fagrant revelations of fraud,
corruption, false swearing and even rob-
bing, does not bring even blush to the
check Of the Louisiana Republicans,
who, in the presence of both Federal
and State officials, are conspirng to
plunder the States and Nation tor an
other four years.
