State Of Igesias chiefiustce and er OtciO
dent of Mexico, with news that Iglesias had as
sumed the powers Of president of the Republic in

pointed full cabinet and other federal officers.

MatamOras is the only place east of Serras Madras
held by partiSanS of LeVadO. An agent of Igleslas
is here and is said to be treating for its surrender to
the new government, and 1t Is believed
that ReSeultas, the commander, Will

acknowledged the English debt, and Is reported to
have negotiated further loan of one million dol
lars, which has excited national feeling against
LeYadO. Five American citizens went over to Mata-
mOras yesterday on a visit, and were lnsulted and
assaulted By Mexican officers and then arrested and
thrown into prison. They we're fined this morning
from twenty to one hundred and fifty dollars each

The Returning Board

hGTUEIIWL
NEW ORLEANS, November 2S-The returning
board met, and all members OF the Republican and
Democratic committees and counsel were present.
General Anderson made another personal expla-
nation.
Judge Spofford suggested that the board should
give an order TO compel the supervisors OF the fol-
lowing parishes TO hand in their returns viz Frank
lin, Grant, Livingston, Lafayette and TangipahOa.
Judge SpofOTd remarked that in these parishes
there we're large Democratic maiorities.
Governor Wells said the board was entirely indie
pendent of the supervisors.
Judge SpOffOrd-Is it in the power of these Eve
supervisors by withholding contrary to law the re-
turns of five parishes where the Democratic ma
jorities Is 29OO to make or unmake President or
governor?
Governor Wells If the returns are not here the
Mr.. Geauthreaux asked If certified copies in the
district courts could not be produced, as the law pro
yided for the use OF these copies when the general
returns were lost or could not be prepared
Governor Wells said he had already ruled on the
point and thought 1t was unnecessary to say more
about il, as the copies had not been received.
Mr.. GeauthreauX and Judge SpOffOrd urged the ne
cessy OF ordering the supervisors to make their re-
turns
Governor Wells replied that he would give the
order If the returns were not produced by Wednes-
day.
Colonel Zacherie filed a motion to the effect that
the tWeutyfOur hours having elapsed the party pro
posing interr0gatOreS shall fix the time, place. and
name Of the United States commissioner TO take
testimony, and that he shall notify the counsel on
opposite sides tWenty-f0ur hours In advance SO that
both may be present when the testimony Is being
taken.
The motion was oyerFuled, and the board imme-
diately went into executive session.
In executive session were inspected the returns
from the remaining wards In the city and from three
parishes All of these laid over for future &c
tlOn aud the parish OF 0uachta was taken up, much
to the surprise OF the Democratic counsel, East
Baton Rouge being the parish fixed for to-day -Four
negroes we're introduced as witnesses on behalf OF
the Republicans, and were examined orally by the
board according 10 the inteHOgatOFies. The board
ruled IN the first place, that unless the Democrats
had cross interTOgatOTieS they would not be permit
ted to examine the witnesses orally Finally, after
remarks by the Republican and Democratic visiting
committees, the board consented to allow cross
examination of the witnesses by the Democratic
committee The testimony Of the witnesses was as
TO intimidation and Outrages and they were very diff

The news from Florida is exceedingly en-
couraging. The Democrats caught the Rad
ical thieves in barefaced attempt 20 rob
them of enough votes to give the State to

Tlden has the electoral vote by a
majority of 135. Good enough for one
day. Tilden is President. In South Caro-
lima the Democrats of the house have made
a movement that viii most likely give them
the organization and end in Hampton IN
auguration. The gross outrage Of bayonet
rIle, to which We are used in the south, has
only served the purpose of cenlenting public
opinion and making more plain the mfamy
Of Radicalism. The conduct and forbearance
of the Democracy of South Carolina, and the
noble example Of Hampton, are worthy ali
possible con,mendation, and entitle them to
the sympathy of their fellow-citizens through
out the Union. Nothing definite was acc m
plished by the returning board of Louis ma
