The Louisiana Imbroglio.

NEW YORK, April 0.
The Tribune's New Orleans special says
the commission has induced some members
of the Packard legislature to take action
toward settlement by uniting the dual
legislatures. This Is without Packsrd's ap-
proval. The Nichols party firmly oppose
the union. The new plan suggested 10 that
a legislature be organized of all the mem
bers elected on the face of the returns, dis
carding the returning board figures. This
would give the conservatives three majority
in the senate and a tie in the house.
The Worlds New Orleans special says
Nichols in his interview with the commits
sion asked nothing but the removal of
troops, and said no violence should be
used, but the Packard government would
die of inanitiou. He considered legisla-
tive compromise impracticable.
NEW ORLEANS, April 0.
The commission sat three hours this
morning with closed doors, the first oppor-
tunity it has seized for full consultation.

WAITING FUR THE VERDICT.
The End of tho Patton Case-Guilty Of Man
slaushter-Out Forty-ssven hours.

The End of tho Patton Case-Guilty Of Man
slaushter-0ut Forty-ssven hours.
The court opened at nine O'Clock Mon
day morning and the attendance was quite
large, the return of the jury in the Patton
case being expected. They did rot return,
however, and the business was taken up.
The room remained tolerably crowded till
the court adjourned at half past four, when
the people supposing there was no chance
of verdict that evening left. About ten
minutes after the adjournment the jury no
titled Judge Powers that they were ready
to come in. The counsel were notified,
The prisoner summoned and few specta-
tors hearing of the news returned.
At ten minutes before five o'clock the
jury entered and took their places, and
John Patton arose to meet his fate at their
hands. Through their foreman, B. F.
Ketcham, in response to The question of the
clerk, they gave their verdict, "Guilty OF
manslaughter."
Patton was accompanied by his wife,
daughter, four sons, three men grown, and
the little boy who appeared Saturday. The
wife burst into tears as Patton was removed
to return TO the Jail. He himself was not
apparently affected in the least.
The penalty for manslaughter is i'm
prisonment for not less than seven years
and may be for life in the discretion
of the court. Sentence has not yet
been pronounced, but will probably be
before Judge Powers departure at the
last of the week.

Tweed's Coniession-The Winans
Bride Money-Why Hall Fled.

New YORK, April 9.
The Tribune says Tweed's confession is
expected to show that Judge Folger and
Andrews (both repubicans) of the court of
appeals were elected by fraud In New
York. Two hundred aud fifty thousand
dollars were certainly paid to five senators
for the passage Of the Tweei charter. A
curious story charges man, now editor
of republican paper in another city, with
appropriating $27,OO given him in trust
for Oliver s. Winsns' vote on the Tweed
chatter. In Sweeney's recent interview
with Hall he assailed the latter bitterly for
intriguing to effect his own release, and
then deserting his comrades. Sweeney de-
cared he had now returned TO settle his
own case, and did not want Halls as
sistance. Halls flight was probably on
this account.

A Card for Rational Readers.

Irrational people always reject good advice,
and in nothing ia their folly moro frequently
conspicuous than in ignoring precautions nee
essary for the retention OF health. Forecast,
on the other hand, is q notable Characteristic
OF the rational, and 1t is the exercise Of this
quality which we would suggest to them. Pro-
tect the system against diseases which fasten
upon the debiitated, the nervous and the dys-
peptic, by braoing the physique, regulating the
stomach, bowels and liver. and banishing des-
pondency with the purest and most eflcient of
botanic invigorants, Hoetetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. That these effects follow its use, and that
1t prevents as well as annihlistes Intermittent
and remittent fsvers, are facts established by
indisputable evidence. To enjoy the twin
blessings OF "a sound mind ana sound body"
in all their pentitude, try course of this sterl-
ing medicine.

From Washington.
FROM LOUISIANA.

WARRINGTON, April o.
Few private dispatches have been re-
ceived by the administration from New
Orleans since the arrival Of the commits
sion. Thete are not of a character to give
much encouragement for the success Of the
plan to bring Nichols and Packard together
by some kind of compromise. The atti-
tude assumed by Packard and the arrogance
displayed leads some OF the presidents ad-
visers to believe that he (Packard) must
have been in correspondence with northern
republicans of the extreme type, and is
simply following out their suggestions.
THE RIGHT KIND OF CIVIL SERVICE
Alonzo Bell has been appointed assistant
secretary Of the interior. He was chief
clerk under Chandler, and is promoted in

to the pressure against him, but neverthe-
less he will resort to such means as will
with q show of law relieve him from lis
present position without appearing to read
lily submit.

The secretary of the treasury has ordered
that no advance of salaries shall be made
