WASHINGTON, D. G., November l2.-
The selection Of prominent gentlemen Of
both parties, at the suggestion Of the
President, to proceed TO New Orleans
and ascertain the true electoral vote Of
Louisiana, has had the effect Of lessening
the excitement which has existed here
during the last week, and produced 4
more favorable feeling that public peace
will be preserved. The subject, however,
continues Of absorbing interest, and TO.
day inquiries were made By numerous
persons at the places where news con.
cerring elections is usually obtained. A
large number OF private kilograms are
being sent hence for information
concerning Louisiana and Florida, 81.
though nothing official can be expected
for some days. Meanwhile each party
claims the election Of its respective can
didates. Prominent gentlemen, says the
President, would intimate that the Va.
cancies in the Louisiana Returning Board
should be filled by persons Of known
honesty, and, therefore, having the conf.
dence Of the public, and II this should
be done there could be no cause for com.
plant in any quarter OF the result to b
reported.

\ COLUMBIA, S. c., November II.
Republicans claim the State by from FIVE
to eight thousand. The Democrats claim
it by few hundred, on the basis oflarge
asserted majorities in three counties
wherein terrorism prevailed. II their
claim is correct, such reported majority
will not stand against the evidence Of
fraud and violence. We are perfectly
confident Of majority under any cir.
cumstances. The official figures will not
all reach here for several days yet.

remarks as follows on the subject:
"The name Of ChaS. J. Faulkner, o

The Democrats are, "a nsual, inclined
to arraign Gen. Grant for sending troops
to Louisiana and Florida. The talk is
the same as it was month ago when
some companies we're sent to South Car
olina. It ia ali for purposes OF fraud
all in the interest OF the Republican
party.
Now won't somebody tell US wherein
troops in Louisiana will inure to the
benefit Of the Republican party? They
will probably prevent au outbreak in
New Orleans. They will have nothing
whatever to do with the count Of the
vote Of the State. They will not even
show themselves in public unless the
local police are unable to keep the peace
Gen. Grant can have no motive in
sending troops to any point in the South
except to protect the peace. His time il
nearly out and itcan matter very little tG
him personally whether Tilden or Hayes
is counted in. But, as he says, "the
country cannot afford to have the result
tainted by the suspicion OF illegal OF
false returns"

mostly estimates. These estimates dii.

would hardly be worth your while;

possibly claim, and excepting their fg-
ares, in an aggregate majority Of
the counties Hayes still has a major-
ity of about $500, and Governor
Chamberlain Of about 2,l00, but the Re-
publicans insist that their best informa.
tion from the most authentic sources,
including all official returns now received
or authoritatively reported to our Exec.
utive Committee, give Hayes a majority
OF about 1000 and Chamberlain Of about
$50. That this State has gone for Hayes
