To the Point.

The New York Herald, Of the fourteenth
instant, contains the following pointed com.
munication from United States Marshal Pit
kin:
New ORLEANS, November 8, 1876.
TO the Editor of the Herald:
A communication hence in your issue of
the fifth and signed +. c. Zaeharie, states
that am "chief of the armed cOlored or
ganization called the Councils of Freedom
here" There is no armed cOlored Organi-
cation, nor am the chief of any such, or of
any other councils, nor am L secretary of
the Republican campaign committee, nor
have been for six wee ks past, nor have the
army officers attempted to dem0ralize col
ored Democrats. There are not 200 of the
latter in the State. Troops have not been
stationed near all or any of the polls to in
fluence the colored voters, nor have the
Democrats had any thirty colOred speakers
in it's canvass. IL did have few NANCY
black mendicants, cast of by the Repub-
licans for their infamy, and fit only for their
new party utilization. Nor has United States
District Attorney Beckwith, nor have l,
sought to debase our official character for
the contamination of party ends.
The communication in question is written
to his element dispc sition to peace to
which vigorous Federal assertion of law,
emphasized by the presence of the United
States chips Ossipee and Canonicus alone
gave seeming yesterday. The aggressive
Democrats in the country here too often at
tempt life. Their cOnfederates in the city
are as diligent to assassinate regulations.
