easily dug that at sever-l points it can be load
ed into wagons or cars at about twenty five
cents per ton, accessible by open digging over
an area Of about three thousand square miles,

over twelve thourand fmiles. This is dis
covery Of very great importance to the tobacco
regions Of that state, as the mari will furnish
the very elements Withdrawn from the soil BY
those crops which carry away SO much Of its
fertility. Thousands Of acres, which have been
SO exhausted that they will no longer make to-
bacco at all, or even respectable crops Of any
thing else, can, the state geo|ogist says, by
proper use Of this fertilizer, be restored to their
pristine productiveness. And not that state

supply being practically inexhanstible. The

WASHINGTON, December 7, 1871

WASHINGTON, December I, 1876,
Ths law branch of the government has
to-day been investigating the laws of Ore.
gon, and precedents growing out OF cases
similar to that presented by Governor
Grover, and has reached the conclusion
that the Republican electoral vote Of
Oregon is not in the least jeopardized by
the illegal and dishonest course of Gov
erncr Grover.
Senator Mitchell ahd ex-Attorney Gem
eral Williams are also of the same opinion.
Senator Mitchell has, however, offered
resolution directing the Committee on
Privil eges and Elections to investigate the
fraud whereby it was attempted to deprive
the people of Oregon of voice in the late
election.
Governor Grover Is Senator elect from
Oregon. and expects to take his seat next
March. It is thought best to inquire if .
Governor who attempts to steal the vote of
State is ft for the United States Senate.
The claims of Lamar and Grover to seats
in the Senate will be vigorously contested.

Senate.

WASHINGTON, December Mr.. Anthony,
from the Committee on Printing, reported
in favor of printing the dispositions in re-
gard to the Louisiana election, presented
TO the President by Senator Sherman's COM
mittee, and lengthy debate followed.
Daring the debate the Oregon Electoral
College subject came up, and numerous
precedents for and against the action of
Governor Grover were cited. Authorities
were quoted at great length. Finally mo-
tion to print passed, 40 to l3 Messrs. Key.
Mcdonald, Randolph, Wallace and Herman
voting with the Republicans.
Mr.. Mitchell introduced the following:
WHEREAS. At the late presidential cleo
ton in the State of Oregon the people, by
majority of over HOO, chose electors who
were pledged to vote for r. B. Hayes for
President, and William A. Wheeler for
Vice President; and
Whereas, The Governor of that State,
upon the pretext that 1. w. Watts, an
elector thus chosen, was at the time of his
election q deputy postmaster, certified to
one E. A. CrOnin, who had been q candidate
upon the Democratic electoral ticket. that
he, CrOnin, was chosen and elected in the
face of the notorious and undisputed fact
that be had been defeated as before stated;
and
Whereas, The Governor placed in the
hands Of the said E. A. Cronin the certificates
of the two other electors chosen to vote for
Hayes and Wheeler, instead Of putting
them into their own hands, as the law re
Guires, retained them in his possession, and
refused to exhibit them; and
Whereas, This f. A. CrOnln assumed to
appoint two electors, and with these pre-.
tented to cast the electoral vote of the
State, and certified it up to the President OF
the Senate; and
Whereas, The action OF the said Cover
nor in issuing certificate of election to
said CrOnin WSs wholly unauthorized,
illegal and fraudulent, and gross viola
ticn of ths rights of the people of Oregon,
and the action of said CrOnin in assuming
to act as an elector aEd to appoint two
others. was wholly fraudulent and wicked;
therefore.
Resolced. That the committee on Privi-
leges and Elections is hereby instructed to
investigate the facts attending the appoint
ment Of saic electors and pretended elect.

Tho Triumph of MIR. Green.

Msior William H. Green, the assistant
secretary of the Returning Board, has
reason to feel proud. He not only captured
all the Democratic visitors, but succeeded
in inducing a very bright correspondent
to believe he was Mr.. Abell. Mr.. Green,
however, denies that he used any intimlda-
ton on the foreign newspaper man to effect
the latter result. The effect is detailed in
the Chicago Times thus:
The negro secretary of the board is a
little fellow, with a barrel-shaped body,
close-clipped wool, bullet head, and agile
movements. Hs has pleasant, distinct
voice, and has created 80 favorable an in
pres sion among Democrats, that John NJ.
Palmer was moved to declare yesterday
that he woald be entirely willing to leave
the decision upon the returns to the judg-
ment and integrity Of the secretary.

THE REAL DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM
Private Instructions to Parish Clubs
The Prelude to the Bulldozers' Campaign

The following circular of instructions to

of the Democratic convention at Baton

L1cAN of August ), and is reproduced as
furnishing the key to the bloody events of
the campaign just closed:
lConfidential.l
RooMs DEMOCRATIC CoNsERvATIr STArEl
Central Committee.
Room No. l, over Cotton Exchange,
New Orleans, -, lS7--.)
DEAR SIR-In writing to you on the sub
iect of the coming election. we are animated
by the same earnest desire. which you no
doubt feel, to wrest the government of the
State from the hands of the vandals who
have for SO long time prOstituted their
usurped powers to strike down our liberties
and destroy our prosperity. Every effort
which we have made SO far, to shake OFT this
fearful burden of Radical rule, has failed.
Another opportunity is offered US to rid our
selves of an evil which has become intOler-
able. To accomplish this object all cOnservs-
tive citizens of this State should unite in q
solid, compact body, and not only use every
effort themselves, but urge upon every one,
within the range OF their influence, to an
earnest, active participation in the present
campaign, and to permit no local dissensions
to distract them from the great work, which
is the redemption of our State. No great OBJ
iect, such as we have in view, can be ACCOM-
plished without Jealous, persistent, vigilant
and united action. Each man must feel
that he has q mission, and that the result
may depend upon his Individual efforts; no
one must imagine that the work will be
done by some one else. ALI have an equal
interest, and all must contribute. This can
only be effected by organization in each
parish; organic alton SO thorough and COM
plete as to embrace within 1t every honest
man. All must be made to understand that
whosoever is not for US is against uf; that
there can be no neutrality when such vital
interests are at stake; that the responsi.
bllity of failure will rest upon those who
are idle, discontented or captious. Indi-
vidual ambitions, personal aspirations and
unworthy prejudices must be laid aside, so
that, moved by common patriotic impulse,
all may be united for the common good.
As the Central organization of the State,
and upon which the people have conferred
all the power we possess, we desire to pro,
pose, for the consideration of yourself and
the Democratic Conservative citizens OF
your parish, the character and working OF
such organizations as we think can be made
etfectual to achieve victory IN the coming
canvass.
Flrst-We suggest that your executive
committee shall divide the parish into dis
tricts, by sections or townships, as you MAY
deem best, to each of which there shall b'
assigned director or directors, whose dut,
it shall be to canvass his Tor their} district
and report to the parish committee th'
number and the names Of those who inhabi
it, dividing them into their political distinc
tions.
Second-We recommend that in convel
