MIR. EDIToR.-The election excitement

by commencing to write upon the bulle-
tin board. The Republican element
seemed confident of the success of their
national ticket, but stated they We're out

made by some gentlemen, that the loser
was to trundle the winner on wheel
barrow about mile through the streets
and return. The voting proceeded quiet
ly with the exception of disturbance in
| the fourth precinct, which on account of
its rather peculiar shape Is termed the
horseshoe. 1t Is said to be districted in
that way to make a large Democratic
majority to the detriment of the sur
rounding precincts. Some Republicans
were appointed to hold the election there

Will. THE RETURNING BrARD
fcOUST ITSELF IsTSb t'h.sON

We wish we could think with the Her
btd that the perilous condition of things
in New Orleans can be ameliorafed by
the moral influences OF the better elements
in the Republican party. In the begin
ming we were inclined to hope that the
President could constrain the members Of
the Returning Board to stop their own in
iquities, but more careful study of the
doings Of the Louisiana tsring,n and a
clearer perceptfoh OF how its every act
looks to this Beturning Board as the cita-
del of its power, convince MS that this
Board canhot and will not be honest.
The perils for itself and the ring are too
great. The Tilden electoral ticket, it pos
sibiy might with partial safety to itselfde-
clare elected, but not the Democratic
Governor, Assemblymen and Senators.
The situation in Louisiana is much the
same as It would have been in this State
ifthe Tweed Ring could have by law Gre
ated Board Of State Canvassers com
posed of Tweed, Connolly. Fields and
Watson, into whose hands went the bal
lots cast on all elections; ifthe ring judg-
'es had decided that this canvassing board
could not be restrained or revised by the
courts or any other power; and If the
board could pass absolutely upon allega-
tions of bribery, duress and undue influ-
ence by employers upon voters, and throw
ont all the ballots of any polling place
where the board thought such influence
operated. Now by such law and such
a board, Tweed would have held the po.
lltical power of this State in his own
hand. He could have made and unmade
governors, State and City officers, Sena-
ators, Assemblymen and judges at his
pleasure. Of what avail would have
been argument or remonstrance with him
or his board, if an honest counting and
an honeGt decision about illegal yoies
would place him and his ring at the mer-
cy of public prosecutor like Mr.. O'Con-
or? just such is the condition of Packard
his ring and his board in New Orleans,
70 remonstrances made by Grant, or by
the Herald, or by the better men and ,joul
nails in the Republican party, the ring
board answers: 'You are quite right in
''your law and your morality and youl
appreciation of what consequences oul
"action will bring on Governor Hayes
the Republican party and the nation, but
''if we declare Nichols and Democratic
''Assembly as well as Senators elected
s'we are doomed and lost, like Tweed and
''his ring, and we must become figitives
''from justice within twehty-four hours
That is the real situation in New Or.
leans, and how can it be dealt with? The
action of the Returning Board as to elec.
tors, as well as members in Congress. car
and ociH be revised in Washington by one
or both houses of Congress. But wha
remedy is there for the several State Off
GERS Of Louisiana illegally counted out b,
this board?-W0rld.
