A DEPUTY MARSHAL BULLDozED.

United States Marshal Piti<in receiv-
ed the following dispatch yesterday
from one of his deputies:
MONROE, LA, November 6, 1876.
j. r: G. Pitkin, United States Marshal, New
Orleans:
1 was ambuscaded this afternoon
four miles from Trenton, on the Ar
kansas road, coming from an official
tour.
Bullets missed myself and driver,
but shot both horses.
f. BOEDICKER,
Deputy Marshal.
The above we copy, heading and all,
from the Now Orleans Republican. 1t
is generally believed here that Boe-
dicker's "ambush' was of his own
making. No man can shoot from one
side of the road and wound two horses
in buggy, one on the right and the
other on the left side, us was done in
this case. If Boedicker will give us
six shots at him, we believe we could
either kill a horse or put more than
one shot into a buggy. There are not
many such poor shots in this country
us the fellow who "ambushed'' Eoe-
dicker, and we verify believe the fell
low ought to be shot himself.

The electoral vote of Louisiana, when
counted, will be singularly absurd.
Strange, absurd AS it may sound, the
electoral ticket has been scratched,
more than the State ticket. In addi-
ton to this, it has become evident that
in at least half the parishes of the State
the mistake was made by both parties
of voting for only three electors, in-
stead of voting for the entire electoral
ticket.
The fourteen parishes counted are,
probably, the least affected in the State
by any irregularities, yet it appears
that in the parish of ST. James, close as
it is to New Orleans, the Democrats ut
one Of the polls voted for only three
electors.
In the returns of the other parishes
opened, but not counted, it was shown
that this error was almost universal.
In Catahoula and Natchitoches par
ishes the Democrats tripped up, while
in Lafourche, Jackson, Iberville, Nat
chitoches and other parishes large
number of these tickets were voted. In
each of these parishes from fifty to a
hundred Of these three electors tickets
were voted. If the parishes already
opened be taken as Il sample, it is evi.
dent that outside of the Wakefield dis,
trict hundreds, if not several thous-
ands, of these tickets were voted. The
Democratic electoral ticket has, of
course, suffered, but by no means as
much as the Radical ticket. Some of
the Democrats,at least, took the papers,
and saw how the electoral ticket ought
to be voted and printed, whereas in
many backwoods communities the
Radicals were wholly outside Of the
world, out of the reach of ncWSta pers,
or information of any kind, etc. Ifthe
parishes of st. James, Lafourche, Jack
son, Catahoula, etc, be taken as a sam
pie, the difference between the highest
and lowest Radical electors will be some
1900, which, added to the 1900 cast in
Wakeiieid's district, will show a differ
ence of fully $500 that the Radicals
will have to make up somewhere.-N.

views concerning the probabilities of
