WOMAN KILLED IN IBERyIaLE.-
About 2 o'clock last Monday morning,
the 9th isst., a terrible tragedy oc-
cured on DIR. Stances Texas planta-
ton, in the parish of Iberville, below
Bayou Goula. A colored M an named
Jacob Gaskin, who had attended the
Republican mass meeting and torch
light procession in Donaldsonpil)e, re-
turned to his home Oh the Texas place
at the hour above named, and upon
knocking at the door OF his cabin dis
covered that a man was in the house
with his wife. Breaking open the door,
he rushed III with II large dirk knife in
his band and eneountering his wife,
stabbed her in FIVE places, killing her
almost instantly. Gaskiu then rushed
at the guilty woman's paramount, and
before he could escape inflicted Il ter
rible cash across his stomach, causing
the entrails to protrude. Gaskin was
was promptly arrested by Constable
White of this parish, and brought to
the Donaldsonville Jail, whence he was
taken upon requisition of the Iberville
authorities yesterday. He is quite a
young man, and bears fair character.
The unfortunate woman was Rosanna

CLOSE OF THE CAMPAIGN.

Immense Gathering of Republicans to
Hear Messrs. Packard, Kellogg, Lewis,
Wharton and Gampbell---TorohEgh
Procession at Night.
The mass meeting with which the
Republicans closed their campaign in
Ascension, last Sunday, was by far
the grandest outpouring of the masses
which has occurred here for years.
1t is reasonably estimated that no
less than 5000 people f1ocked to Dom
jacksonville, while the crowd about
the speakers stand was variously
computed at from 1000 to 1000 souls.
The steamer Era No. 9, with Mr..
Packard aud his campaign party on
board. arrived at the DonaldsOnville
landing before daylight, and a few
hours afterward number of local
Republicans visited the boat to greet
their standard bearer and his distin-
guished companions. Shortly after 10
o'clock the boat left the landing and
went up the river as far as New River
Lane, stopping on the way for people
who desired to attend the meeting.
She returned to town with nearly 1000
souls on board, then went down the
river, as far as Burnside's Clark plan
tation, OF IL similar Grand, bringing
rs many more people from that direc-
ton. On the way back a stoppage
was made at the Marchand place,
where IL Democratic mass meeting
and barbecue were being held, and
the rush Of people away from the bar
becue grounds and aboard the boat
amounted to Il veritable stampede.
The noon train from New Orleans
brought Gov. Kellogg, accompanied
by Messrs. Ryan, Burch and Perkins,
the two latter having been delegated
by the State committee to address the
Republican meeting at the Osborne
Church, in Assumption. At o'clock
the meeting at the Market House was
called to order by Hoa. Morris Marks,
who read the following list of officers :
Prtsident-I. e. Bentley.

1900. Horsemen were in the lead,
followed by the st. Joseph Brass
Band in their large wagon. Jpst be
hind this were a number of torch
bearers, then Mitchells three-seated
stage, on which was borne large
transparency with these Inscriptions
" Hayes and Wheeler" 50 Packard
and Antoine" Republican reform:
reduction of debt and taxes" "Dem-
ocratic reform kick out Republicans,
give lis the Offices In the stage
rode Gen. Jack Wharton, Gen. Geo.
Bailey, Chas. Hill, Esq, and other
gentlemen. A long line of footmen,
with and without torches, followed,
the Conway field band occupying a
position near the middle. After
marching on the principal streets for
an hour, the procession halted at the
market, aud leave was taken of Mr..
Packard and party, who went aboard
their campaign boat, accompanied by
the people who had come to the meet
ing from down the river. The pro-
cession then continued its route, halt
ing i'll front of Senator Landry's resi-
dence, where brief address was
made by the Senator, and again at
the Court House, where Mr.. A P.
Dominique made few remarks.
Thereafter the procession disbanded
and the people dispersed TO their
homes, encouraged and pleased with
the days experiences. The Era No.
9 left the wharf about 10 o'clock.
1t should not be overlooked that
an important factor in the proceedings
Of the day was the excellent music
furnished by Kelly's Brass Band of
New Orleans, which accompanied the
Packard campaign party on their
visit to the river parishes during the
fortnight preceding the election. The
st. Joseph and Conway bands also
deserve honorable mention for their
valuable and gratnitous services.

A we'll attended meeting was held
on Burnsides's Clark place last Sat-
urday night, which was addressed by
Messrs. Marks, Buford, Bentley, Ian
dry and G. II. Hill, with good effect.
The unity among fifth ward Repub-
licans which resulted i'll the solid vote
on Tuesday was foreslladowed by the
meetings on the Clark and Tureaud
places last week. White and colored
Democrats did their most assiduous
canvassing in that ward, but their
Efforts had no impression beyond con
solidating and strengthening the Re-
publican plialanx.

Meeting in the Fourth.
The three or four Democratic meet
ings which rumurs had announced for
Sunday last, dwindled into one mass
meeting and barbecue ut the old Mar
chand place, fifth ward. We have not
obtained list of the speakers or any
particulars of the affair, but we pre-
sumo every thing passed off pleasantly
and to the satisfaction of those most
Interested. We believe Col. f. z.
Pelie of st. James was one of the
speakers. The Independent Band was
present, and with good music, inter
esting speeches and plenty to eat,
ample material for enjoyment was fur
nished to the people in attendance.
The campaign on the part of the
opposition closed with "A meeting of

The selections were indorsed by
unanimous vote, and the chairman
elect assumed control, Introducing as
the first speaker, Col. James Lewis,
who delighted the audience with an
eloquent aud logical address which
was frequently interrupted with APP
plause. At the conclusion of the re-
marks of Col. Lewis, MIR. Packard
was presented as 1.-THE next Governor
of Louisiana and greeted with deaf
ening applause. His speech was an
admirable exposition of the principles
and policies OF the opposing parties,
and of their relations to the material
Interests of Louisiana. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that so few of our Democratic
fellow citizens could secure positions
near enough the stand to hear Mr..
Packard's solid argument. When the
speaker concluded, it was announced
that the meeting would be continued
outside the building, as the spacious
hall afforded room for only a fraction
of the immense assemblage. Before
the change was made, the chairman
proposed three cheers for Governor
Packard who was about leaving to
address the Assumption meeting, and
they were given with hearty good
will.
A hastily improvised stand had been
prepared in front of the Market
House, and here Gov. Kellogg was
presented to the audience. The Gov
ernor spoke thirty minutes with ex-
cellent effect. His telling arguments
aud flashes of eloquence created great
enthusiasts, while his humorous anec-
dotes and sallies of wit provoked fire.
quent shouts of laughter and put the
crowd into the best possible humor.
The iuimitable Gen. Jack wharton

characteristic speeches, Astounding in
pathos, mirth and powerful logic, and
its effect upon the audience is more
easily imagined than described. The
meeting closed with powerful speech
from Judge Hugh j. Campbell, who
fairly surpassed himself in eloquepee
and argument. Hon. Pierre Landry,
acting as chairman. announced the
torchlight procession, warned those
from up the river that the steamer
would leave Immediately to convey
them home, and declared the meeting
adjourned.
The torchlight procession at night
was, as we predicted it would be, the
most imposing. pageant of the kind
that has ever occurred here. Over
300 torches were borne in line, and
the crowd which attended and fol-
lowed the procession numbered fully
