melous of extraordinary size; the land is
so good that most plants seem to bear
fruit two or three shines year. The heat
IN summer is very great along the coast.
and i. seldom rains but the air of the
inland country is more temperate. Itis
the same in winter in proportion. In the
months of April, May and June, there
falls strong dew, sort Of mama,
which congcals upon the leaves Of reeds,
from whence the natives gather it, and
find it as sweet as sugar, but not altogeth-
er SO white. The climate is exceedingly
beautiful, if We may judge Of it by the
Missionary Jesuits, and the Spaniards
with them for during the five years
they were in the country they continued
very we'll in health. The coasts of Cali
iiornia are famous for the pearl fishery,
and it is thought there are mines in sew
eral places il they wero sought for"
In 1863, the Jesu it Fathers, aided by
subsidies from the government purse es-
tablished their first mission at Sau Diego.
From there they gradually pushed their
way northward and discovered the noble
bay Of San Francisco, and in 1776, the
year in which our fathers unfurlcd the
standard Of American nationality, foun-
ded their mission at San Francisco. 1t
is something Of coincidence that, the
foundation of liberty for the Western
World ond the foundation of Empire in
the wi de f c li.ornia should ba cotemls
@ u y events that whi the shores of the
Atlantic should witness the spectacle of
people embarking in the struggle for a
place in the great family of nations, the
shores OF the Pacific should witness the
standard Of civilization first raised upon
the spot where that people could in a
century more, look upon the metropolis
Of their Western possessions.

TOWN AND COUNTY.

ClNNABAR DIsTRICT.- With the dis
appearance of snow, work ON the Trinity
quicksilver mines has been resumed and
will be prosecuted with much more vigor
this Summer than last. In the Altoona
and Boston Mines, q greatly increased
force Of men will be put to work, and
the new and old retorts reinforced 10y the
addition Of two large furnaces now build
ing, will make the yield of quicksilver
from those mines so large rs to attract at
tenuon in the San Francisco market
This will become more noticeable when
the fact is made patent that quicksilver
can be produced here at a much lower
cost than at any other mines in the world,
and we have no hesitancy in predicting
that ere long the Cinnabar mines OF
this county will control the market and
fix the price otquicksilver or this we
feel certain, because prices which will
close almost all other mines on this coast,
will afford those here large profit
Enough Is already known, from the work
done and quicksilver produced last sea
sog, to sustify this statement.
Prospecting will be carried on exten
siyely and systematically this Summer,
aol it is more than probable that equally
a, good, if not better, mines than those
now being worked will be discovcred,-

operations by running a tunnel to strike

4 Remarkable Change.

It is q arksble change which the
Democrats claim TO have occurred in the
parishes of East and Weet Felicians. East
Baton Rouge, Morehouse and Ouachita, in
the last two years, and yet upon maintain
ing that this change was legitimate, hang
all their hopes OF carrying Louisiana. In
1874 these parishes gave large Republican
msjorities, and now they are claimed by
immense majorities for the Democrats. The
seeming mystery is easlly explained. In
1874 the intimidation programme was in
Caddc and neighboring parishes, carving
them. 80 they claimed, for the Damocrats
In 1876 the scene was changed, and the f ye
parishes above enumerated were selected
to roll up Democratic msjorities, to save
the party in this State Their peculiar mol
10y was well played, but will scarcely carry
the election after all. Caddo and bossier,
ana the parishes in the fourth congressional
district, were allowed to be quiet, and, as .
consequence, rolled up Republican maiori-
Ties enough to overbalsnce the "bulldozed"
parishes. We were not at all surprised,
AFTER the result was known, whom We read
IN special to the Shreveport Times that
tho Democracy in New Orleans wero ''eha-
gt1ned" q the returns from Caddo and
6oaster. They Ind reason to be, for these
returns did wonders 10 a'blook the eamo"
they A1pectad to win. --aSAsepsport Telegram.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1876-11-26

have thus traced the history of these
bulldozed parishes from 1868, and have
shown that they had registered colored
vote of 59,737 in 1876, and registered
Republican vote of 1928 in 1868, and
that in all the years in which peaceable
election has been held in these parishes
they have cast q uniform Republican vote
of from SO. 600 to 81. 600, and yet that these
same parishes in 1868 only gave Grant $3.50
votes. This, taken in connection with
the history of the events Of 1868, of which
I have given . brief recital, all of which
is corroborated by official records. will
establish conclusively and beyond all
doubt in the mind of every candid person
the facts which Republicans have
charged: that the Republican vote Of
these parishes in 1868 was forcibly and
violently suppressed by acts Of blo0dshed,
murder and massacre.
These facts led to the election law Of
1870, and it was to prevent the recurrence
of similar acts that the law was intended.
In this connection, and before passing
on, and while am engaged in tables, let
me give the vote of fifteen bulldozed par
ishes in 1876. These parishes are East
Baton Rouge, Bienville, Caldwell, Clai-
borne, East Felicians, West Feliciana,
Franklin, Grant, jackson, Morebouse,
Richland, Union, Washington and VIM.
The Republican registration of these
nar;shea in 1863 vaa IA follows:

And now these same fifteen parishes
under the reign of terror in 1876 caused
by the bulldozers, cast only 5758 Repub-
Gcan votes, as claimed by the Democrats,
as will be seen by the following table:

So that out of 1929 registered Repub-
ican voters in the foregoing parishes,
who had voted, in the spring previously,
at the election held, for the Republican
candidate for Governor, only $3.50
votes were cast for Grant Out of
nine of the above parishes, in which there
were II, GOA registered Republican votes,
only 10 were cast for Grant, being one
and two in each parish, except one which
gave nine. The table is given below:

Thus we have seen that these fifteen
parishes have q registered Republican
vote of 1926, and in peaceful years have
cast q Republican vote of from $500 to
1880. And yet these same fifteen par
ishes under the reign of terror, caused by
the Knights of the White Camelia in
1868, only cast 1895 Republican votes, as
