E,t,a Address and Resolutions Of
sI.t> 2sessspcrnsic stale EXecu-
live Committee.
Violated Promises of the Kellogg Clan

The people have profuse promises from
Mr.. kellogg, beginning with the cam
paign of 1872, none of which have been
fulfilled
This committee, speaking for the Con-
servative masses of the State, would taIl
in its duty did it not express the belief
that the party in power in this State IS
acting in bad faith. 1t is believed that
there is a matured conspiracy to defeat
all measures of reform, by consuming
the few days of the legislative session
remaining. in idle, frivolous discussions,
with the purpose of leaving the coming
election in the hands of the Governor de
fdcto and the Returning Board.
/ We have been rendered no substantial
measures of relief-nothing in the spirit
of the Wheeler compromise-but with
clownish tests and offensive presumption
upon the credulity of the people.
1t is time this trifing with grave pub
lie questions should cease. The time for
decisive action has arrived. The issues
are few in number and simple in their
character. The course is plain and
straightforward. There must be an
honest government in Louisiana
State, the fairest among all her sisters
or Louisiana, burdened with debt, ex-
hausted by taxation and suffering from
the supremacy of ignorance over iutelll-
gence, will become a colony for convicts
and the home of depravity. The people,
for whom this committee speaks, are
resolved, in this Centennial of their
liberties, to test the relative strength of
intelligence and ignorance. They will
use no violence, but all the means in
their power will be employed to defeat
the further rule of the vicious and igno-
rant in this State. Happily, the people
are united in advocating these de-
mands, and this committee, as their
organ, promises an earnest canvass
to secure their rights. What re-
mains to be done, is the perfection of the
| Democratic Conservative organization In
all the parishes of the State where action
has not been taken. Full reliance is felt
in the Democratic and Conservative
members of the General Assembly, to
maintain the honor, dignity and interests
of the State; but this committee accepts
the responsibility of urging upon our
Senators and Representatives, the adop-
ton of such measures as, in their judy
ment, will most speedily demonstrate the
! bad faith of our enemies in the Legisla-
ture, and give the country assurance of
a vigorous campaign upon the Republican
party. The people cannot and do not
confde in the promises of their Cypress
ors. 1t is time for action.

RESOLUTIONS.

Whereas, 1t is apparent that the Rad
ical party in the State of Louisiana,
despairing of success by fair means, have
resolved to pursue the same policy by
which in the past they have been enabled,
against the wishes and voice of MAORI
ty of the people, to secure possession of
the government of the State, and by the
aid of Federal bayonets to retain the
possession thus fraudulently and violently
obtained; and
Whereas, 1t is evident that they have
determined at every cost to perpetuate
the Returning Board, which has hereto
fore done so much to render futile our
victories at the ballot-box, and to DESTROY
the liberties of the people therefore, be
it
Resolved, That the Central Executive
Committee of the Democratic Conserva-
tive party of the State of Louisiana.
earnestly urges upon the Democratic and
Conservative members of the Legislature
to exhaust every means in their power to
prevent such an outrage upon the people
OF the State, as the passage of an election
bill containing any provision establishing
a Returning Board with unlimited power,
or with any power which will enable them
to defeat the will of the people as ex-
pressed at the ballot-box.

Opinion of the Court By SIMRALL,

Opinion of the Court By SIMRALL, j.
This was a suit for breach of contract.
There was trial and a verdict for the
plaintiff in error, which was set aside on
motion by the Circuit Court and a new trial
granted. There was a bill of exceptions
containing the evidence on the first trial. On
the second trial there was verdict and
Judgment for the defendant in error. No
bill of exceptions to the second trial The
objection here is that the first verdict was
improperly set aside. The case turned on
the facts. Held:
That it was not apparent that the first
verdict was improperly set aside, and the
result of the second trial affords a strong
reason that the new trial was properly
granted, Citing % Mississippi, p. 1884, and
IL Mississippi. D. 1887 Affirmed

Although Judge Davis is an officer of
the State, nevertheless, that fact does
not and should not prevent him from
taking an interest in, or expressing an
opinion OF, matter of such magnitude to
the State as that of impeachment of it's
chief executive officer. -Corinth News.
Is is one thing to "express an opinion, y
and another thing to tamper with the
jury and forestall its action, as the
Judges letter clearly showed that he had
been trying to do; and it was rather in
delicate in an official dependent on exc
cutive favor for his disappointment.

The Senate has passed the House bill
appropriating money for the support OF
the Holly Springs Normal (colored)
School, and this in advance of the reg
ular appropriation bill. We believe 1t
was charged, in the last canvass, by the
Radicals, that the Democrats would,
when they came in power, nullify the
public school system, if possible.

In another column we have published
an extract from the address of the Dem
ocratic State Executive Committee of
Louisiana, exposing the bad faith of the
carpetbag officials, in breaking the
Wheeler compromise, and attempting
to continue in force the election law with
the odious features under which the peo-
pie have heretofore been cheated out OF
the elections they have fairly won at the
polls. The Radical leaders seem bent
upon precipitating another difficulty.

A FIirt's EXDerience.

The proprie or of n summer hotel near
New York had q very singular expe-
ricnco recently. Among his guests were
middle aged widow and her married
daughter and husband. He was i'm
pressed with the idea that he had some
where seen the widow before, but could
not tell when or where. Finally, making
inquiries about her, it appeared that
she formerly lived in New York in a To-
cation formerly very fashionable. It
appears that the landlord was an old
beau of the lady, and they were once en-
gagged to be married, but she was great
fiirt, and the gentleman became offended
at some action of hers, which he regarded
as iudiscreet. He went to Europe, and
Oh his return was informed that the
young woman was dead. Under this
impression he forgot all about her.
Strangely enough the woman, about the
same time, married and removed to Gin
cinnati. During q subsequent visit to
New York she was likewise informed
that her former lover was deceased-a
circumstance quite M. ural. rs the papers
reported the drowning of man of the
same name. He married and became O
widower. When the meeting occurred,
and he had made himself known, the
woman could hardly believe her own
senses. Each party imagined the other
had risen from the dead, but the ac-
quaintance thus revived has been O
happy one to both, and the boarders are
remarking the singular fondness of the
widow for the landlord. The explana-
tions which followed only intensified the
