candidate for Congress in the fourth dis
trict of the State, who is defeated BY 100
majority came here last night having i'll
his possession the returns from nine par
ishes in his district. None of these par
ishes are more than three days journey

been kept back two weeks, and now are
received through the hands of a man
personally interested and who is notori-
ously one of the shrewdest and most uil-
scrupulous radical tricksters inthe state.
The democrats have reproduced from
the records of the Hoar committee the
sworn statement of Anderson that he
considered himself disqualified, and did
not act on the returning board in 1872 be-
cause he was % candidate for the State
Senate. The circumstances are precisely
similar now. -.s

preached Mr.. s. B. BraEt0n's house, on the
Convent property, to obtain drink Of water.
The children no sooner appeared at the door
than house cat, which had been quietly
doing in the sun, made spring at one of the
children, and with teeth and claws bit aud
tore the child's face and shoulders in dread
full way. Attracted by its shrieks Nj. Bran
ton, who had been at work near by, ran up,
and snatching the child in his arms, beat the
maddened and furiated animal off with a
club. Thrice was the attack attempted to be
upon the same girl, and had assis-

beast would have overcome the child. Mr..
