Ex-senator TRUMBULL, remarked
the other day that if the truth about
Louisiana ever comes out he believes
it will be found cut that there were
more murders, more scourgings, more
8hippings and more abuse of colored
men by their own race for voting The
Democratic ticket than of colored
persons by whites for voting the Re
publican ticket. True.
