Elections, has reported favOrably
to the claims of Spencer, so, having
been thoroughly white-washed,
Spencer will continue to sit as Sena

continues to hold his seat in conse-
Guence of an improper exclusion oil
evidence, and so reports. 1t is,
however, very important to the
Republican party not to lose a

THE official report Of the late
Coushatta affair states that the
party who committed the foul MUIR
der was disguised. From the best
information we can get, the deed
has no political Significance it was
an act of revenge perpetrated by
reason of a failure to divide ill
gotten spoils. Both parties were
copfederates in iniquity and were
stealing from each other. Had the
penalty been the same to him who
escaped, as to hin who expired, the
world would have been no worse
off.
