In the course of an interview
with Hon. Abram Hewitt, chair
man of the National Democratic
committee, President Grant ex-
pressed in the most decided manner
his CONVICTION that owing to fraud
and intimidation there had been no
fair or legal election in Louisiana,
and that the electoral vote of that
State should not be counted, and
yet he had the impudcnce TO send to
congress as an official document
bearing his Endorsement, the bull
doing report of Senator John
Sherman.

The Counting out.

The news of the eonsummation
of the counting out infamy was re-
ceived with deepest gravity in
Washington and throughout the en-
tire country. Prominent repubI
cans were appalled, at the result,
and are hoping that the election
may go into the House. The dem
ocrats seem resolved that the fraud
ulent votes shall not be counted for
Hayes in joint convention. A
Washington special to the Courier
Journal gives the following pen-por-
trait of the feeling in that city:
The news of the consummation Of
the contingent conspiracy has
produced a feeling of deep gravity
Men are now brought face to face
with events which threaten the final
overthrow of free institutions, and a
civil war. Many Republicans stand
appalled, at the result, and such
prominent members as Seelye and
Pierce express the hope and belief
that the Presidential election will
go into the House of Representa-
tives.
TEMPER OF THE DEMOCRATS.
From my observation of the tenn
per of the Democrats in Congress,
can state that it is certain that
those fraudulent votes will never be
counted for Mr.. Hayes in the joint
convention, and he will never be
officially declared to be elected
president in the mode provided by
the Constitution. If he succeeds
to the Office it will be
AS A UsURPER INSTALLED BY GRANTS
BAYONETs,
and holding only by the sword.
The party feeling in Congress is
rancorous. The Infamous paper OF
Sherman, Garfield & Co. was sent
into Congress by Grant. The dem
ocratic members in both houses re-
CARED this act as one of extraordi-
nary and lawless insolence, and
after a spirited speech by Mr.. Wood
the House laid the message on the
table. Messrs. Garfield and Hale
were cooked and primed with
bloody shirt speeches, but the pol
icy of the Democrats will be to act
rather than talk. l feel sure that
they will do their full duty in the
premises. If a usurper is installed
as president by coup detGt, it will
be the fault of the people-the
House will stand firm.

Cured to the world since The flood
was the recent destruction of 25O,-
600 people, who were engulfed by
the gigantic wave which SWEPT over
the islands at the mouth of the Bra

propelled by the force of a terrific
cyclone. The only disaster ap-
preaching this in magnitude was
the destruction of 100000 people in

The action of the Governor of
Oregon was based upon a decision
of the Supreme Court in that State
in a precisely similar case, where the
court held that person incl gible
having been elected, the votes cast
tor him were the same as Hanks
and therefore his competitor was
the only person voted for at the
election.

Gen. Samuel Cooper, ex-Confed
crate adjutant and inspector gener
al, died Saturday at his homestead
in Cameron, Fairfax county, Virgin
ia. He was born in New York. in
1898, and was a graduate of West
Point. He married a sister of the
Hon. James NJ. Mason, of Mason
and Slidell fame, and for distin-
guished services in the FIoridian
and Mexican wars was made Adiu
tant General under Scott. In April,
1861, he removed and went to
Montgomery, Ala, where he was
appointed adjutant and inspector
general of the Confederate forces,
whose organization he effected.

The situation may be summed
up in a few words. The radical
leaders. sure OF counting Florida

thinking that these would give
Hayes 185 votes sure, committed
themselves in maintaining that
Congress has no power to go be.
hind the returns as certified by the
Governor Of the States, but must
count them as they were sent in. In
taking this position they little
dreamed that Oregon would give
one Tilden vote, but now that she
has, they are caught by their own
argument-"hoist by their own pc
tard." They took this position to
cheat the democrats and they were
caught in their own trap. They are
as devoid of consistency, however,
as SCOT is of whiteness, and viii not
hesitate to change their tactics.
But it matters not which side they
take now-if the face of the returns
is conclusive, Tilden is elected; if
they go behind the returns, their
sneaking thievery and putrid frauds
in the contested States will be
shown up, and those states given to
Tilden. In either event we have
them-at all events we have them.

The democratic caucus in Wash

the present. In this matter the
wise and moderate counsels of
Southern members prevailed. Ben
Hill, the great Southern Hyena, as
the radicals call him, was the first
to oppose it. Hon. Jno. +. House,
of this State, made very effective
speech against it. The proposition
came from the North, and was de
feated by the Southern members.
