no means insist that he instigated the
troubles at. Bayou Sara, for We 40
not think that he wonld see 4 negro

agents at New Orleans arc clearly
responsible for the exaggeration OF
the act of repressing local fawless.

these maraudcurs, turned them over
TO this tribunal, which punished them
summarily and severely !; wherenpon
they lay in wait for him, killed him
and wounded a negro servant. lhe
latter identified the murdercrs, whom
thereon a vigilance committee OF
whites hanged. Thus one white man
was killed by murIelers who hap.
pencd to be negroes, and his two
murderers were hanged justly, if not
legally, and, if we are to judge from
tile severe scourgings they had pre-
viously received, with the full ap-
proval of their fellows. On this Sian.
der foundation Antoine, Kellogg and
company build their superstructure
of falseiood, alleging that sixty ne
groes had already been butchered,
and many whites, and that armed
forces were harryiug the peaceful
country with fire and shotgun. Vhe

But, alas ! the times have changed,
and we with the times. AS the Her'

extent, aud their repression. Mr.
Grant looked coldly on this double
carpet-bagger, and it is needless t.
say that Mr.. Pitrrepont did as Mr.

tho National Republican, Mr.. Kel
logg met with little aSmpathy at tn
capital. Finding That his puml

news that the military had been o'
the ground all the time but had de-
clined to interfere for the very goo
reason that there was no ground to
their interference.
