alterations in the returns from Vernon Parish
fifteen minutes after Governor Wells suggested
it. Judge Davis, one of the clerks, showed me
how TO alter the figures and furnscd rubber.
Woodward, another clerk, assisted on Monday
morning. Other clerks must have seen it done.
Governor Wells came in repeatedly while the
work was progressing. 1 worked OH it that
night until j o'clock. On Monday l invited
Woodward to assist. Woodward erased some
of the totals. l handed the original returns TO
Governor Wells. Abel came in just as they

stroy or make way with the altered statement

rta.. fhe Supreme Court of this State de,

re4- The Supreme Court of this State decides
that the election Of County officers on the 7th
Of November last was valid. Judge Reed, of
the Tst Circuit, had decided that the late elec-
tion of County officers was not valid, because
the new general election law did not explicitly
repeal that clause in the old law which orders
the election for County officers to be held in Oc.
tober. Now, if Judge Bond, L. W. NJ. Mackey
or some other pretender don't overrule the de-
cision Of the Supreme Court, we suppose the
decision will stand, and the County officers will
take their positions

more attentionto the ,"hogssnd h.miny' tLsn

far cheaper to raise corn than to pay $3.50 q
bushel for it on lien, and that they can raise
bacon Mt much less per pound than lien prices
when oil our farmers act upon that idea we shall
be more prosperous and independent. Money
will be more plentiful, for instead of sending
tie money our farmers get for their cotton to
the North and West, for corn, Bacon, Flour and
other supplies, it will remain and he circulated
