SHELDON GUTHRIE, JUN, Lieutenant
Colonel of the Thirty second Ohio Regi-
ment during the war, and the First Lieu
tenant Of the Twenty-third United States
Infantry, the son of an Abolitionist and
lifelong Abolitionist himself, sends
the N. Y. Tribune this interesting and
valuable testimony as to the situation,
from Orange City, Lafourche Parish; "At
the North would be an independent or
Liberal Republican; in Louisiana every
consideration of decenCy and honesty
compels me to be a Democrat. l was
present all day at my poll on November
9TH. The only intim idation there was
on the part of the Republicans. I was
myself insulted and menaced with pis-
tol by a Republican because l was Dem
ocrat, and at the very door Of the poll l
heard the vilest epithets applied to all
Democrats simply because they were
Democrats. The half dozen United
States Deputy Marshals at the poll were
ofthe dregs of the population, and were
appointed evidently for the sole purpose
of giving them authority to carry arms
and thus intimidate Democratic voters.
The Republicans tried all day to start a
fight, but, as the Democrats went unarm-
ed, to vote and not to fight, the perse-
cuted lambs of your party were not graf
flied. Sir, fought four years in the I'm
ion army to preserve the Union; a few
years more of Grantism and Kelloggism
will prepare me to fight twice four years
to demolish it,"

The attempted fraud of the De Soto

The attempted fraud of the De Soto
parish return was a failure of Wells &
Co. Villainy oftentimes overreaches it
self. The package with the returns was
carefully sealed-had been received by
mail, was postmarked Nov. 14th, and
marked as having been received at the
New Orleans Post-ofice, Nov, 18th, The
Returning Board opened the package
Nov. 25th, and when opened was found
to contain an affidavit of intimidation
sworn to in New Orleans Nov. 25th--the
same day it was opened. Before open
ing the package the Board called the at
tention of the Republican and Democrat
ic committees present to its condition.
1t was nicely and we'll sealed, and bore
no evidence of having been tampered
with. ]. Madison Wells, President of
the Board, said: "By =! it's a clerical
error" The error consisted in the fact
that the Clerk did not ante-date the GER
tificate ofintimidation, instead of dating
it as on the day it was made-that is, in
not dating it on or before Nov. 14th,
when it was mailed in De Soto parish,
instead of dating it a week after it had
been received at the New Orleans post
office, which was Nov. 18th. Madison
knew there had been put in the package
the certificate of intimidation-a forged
one, of course, like many others-but he
had no idea it was rotten because of a
"clerical error" The outsiders who had
been admitted within the sacred pre-
cincts of the Board laughed, we are told,
at the exposure the rascals made of
themselves; for which impertinence we
are astonished that the Board did not
compel the ring-leader to swallow the
certificate of intimidation, date and all.

In Florida things are more doubtful.
fthe only reports we get from there are
reliable, it really looks as if the Demo
Gratis had the best Of it. The genuine re-
turn from Baker county would seem to
be the Democratic one and the Republi-
can one the fraudulent one. The reports
about the Alachua county Irregularities,
too, are either Colored by Democratic
telegraphers or else they seem to show
attempted Republican fraud. This would
appear to indicate that Tilden will get
the Florida electors. But there is no
telling. The next batch of reports from
Florida may be filled with proofs Of
Democratic fraud and violence, and that
state be given to Hayes Pittsburgh Lead

THOUGHTFUL men of all parties are be-
coming alarmed at the situation. The
stagnation in business is certainly indie
ative of something terribly wrong. and it
compels serious apprehension. Outrage
and lawlessness, usurpation by bayonet
force not calculated to allay this appre-
hension and restore peace and prosperi-
ty. Misrule and violence are not produc-
tive OF that harmony, quiet and conf
dence that restore business prosperity
and happiness.

PRESIDENT GRANTS outrageous military
interference in South Carolina is Great
ing storm of indignation in the East,
As the Herald justly puts it, his interfer-
ence was not in behalf of the Electoral
votes Of the State but to help candidate
Governor to capture a Legislature and
State machinery. 1t was not matter
for Presidential interference. There is
a prejudice against South Carolina and a
feeling in Republican quarters that she
has no rights which the country is call
ed upon to respect, but the most stupid
man in the country recognizes the dan.
gerous character of the precedent which
GRANT has established.

and Lieut., Governor to Speaker Wallace.
The Democrats are jubilant over these
events.
Gen. Hampton addressed an immense
throng of people here tonight, who as
sembled in front of the Executive Com
mittee rooms. He counseled peace and
patience, and assured the crowd that he
would finally be seated as Governor of
South Carolina, to which the people had
elected him. The most intense excite
ment and indignation exists here at the
outrage perpetrated by the rump, but the
people will accept the advice given them
by Hampton, and no trouble is antiCipa-
ted.
OREGON, Dec. 6.-Advices from Salem,

him. Cronin then elected j. N. T. Mil
ler and John Parker, Republican Elec.
tors, and proceeded to cast the vote, two
for Hayes and one for Tilden.
