he CONTEsTs.

Mr.. VIM. M. Randolph, Of this city,
has concluded to contest hon. Casey
Young seat in the next Congress. He
is fond Of notoriety, aud is on the road
to win it, but not to q seat 10 the House
of Congress, unless room ia made for
him with ~bayonets. Casey Young, We are
satisfied, was fairly elected by a large
majority, Notwithstanding the fact that
Rsndolph's party brought in and voted
hundreds Of negroes from Mississippi
aud Arkansas. 1t is a we'll known fact
that the Democrats wer, too confident to
make any extra effort, and that these
negroes took possession Of two
important voting places in the
city ana voted all day to their hearts
content. Even this was not enough;
they insulted, cursed and abused such
old white-beaded Democrats as Major ].
j. Murphy, and in other ways demon
strated their hatred of white people aud
love for such as Randolph and Barbour
Lewis, who fratsrnizs with them for the
sake Of Office. Mr.. Randolph can con.
test, but he will have a lively time getting
a seat, and when the next election comes
around and he runs the true people Of
this district will show him what they can
do. They will not submit again to the
meuaces and the outrageous means EN-
ployed by the Republicans in the at.
tempt to carry this city.

PARIS, January - Mondays sitting
Of the Conference was very brief. The
Turkish delegates declared that they
had no authority to discuss questions Of
international commission. The Confer.
enc adjourned until Thursday next.
The Turkish Cabinet Council will, in the
meantime, deliberate upon the Porte and
definite answer to the proposition Of the
powers.
CoYsTANTHoPLE, January O.. The
fourth sitting Of the Plenery conference
was held to-day. The Marquis Of Sails,
bury expressed the views OF the plenipo.
tentiaries. During the discussion the
Turkish delegates enumerated the points
upon which they did not consider they
could negotiate. They we're chiefly the
organization Of local gendarme with
farpign participation, the question Of an
international commission and the extern
sion Of Serviea territory. The plenipo.
tentiaries asked If this declaration was
tantamount to absolute refusal. The
Turkish delegates replied that they must
refer to the Porte.
The next sitting Of the conference is
fixed for Thursday, when the Porte will
give definite reply. The Marquis Of
Salisbury visited Midhat Pasha, the
Grand Vizier, after the conference. The
counter proposals Of Turkey differ com
pletely from the scheme agreed upon by
the pleniPoteatiaries. 1t is stated that

We publish to day the biography Of
Colonel John b. Savage, one of Ten
nessee's most gallant and meritcrious
sons. The sketch is drawn from such re.
sources as happen to be available, and is
necessarily incomplete and msagre in
detail. Yet we trust that it will be found
interesting and of value not only to the
personal and political friends Of Colonel
Savage, but to every true citizen and as
piring youth. 1t teaches a lesson OF en-.
durance and fidelity to principle for its
own sake. The life Of Colonel Savage,
if written out, would flI 8 large space in
the history Of the State and the country
for the last thirty or forty years. BE is
everywhere held in high respect by the
people, but it is among the mcuntAineers
Of his own district that he has the strong.
est hold upon the popular heart. Two
years ago, when his name was presented
for the United States Senate, they stood
by him with the utmost enthusiasm until
he withdrew to promote the harmony aud
welfare Of the Democratic party. That
he will serve his county and State we'll in
the Legislature is a matter of course be-
yond question.

The Supreme Court and Board of
CauvaSseFs,
TALLAHAssEE, January 2.--The Su-
preme Court met yesterday but did not
consider the paper fled by the Board of
Canvassers on the 9th ult, such an
answer to their peremptory writ as the
court could accept. It was returned to
the Secretary OF State as property be-.
longing to the files Of that Office, and
the court ordered the Board to answer
by four o'clock to the plain language of
the writ by canvassing the vote for Gov.
ernor, not emitting in their return any
voter cast for any other Office, Os the
rights of the Presidential electors and
members of Congress were not matters
before the court. The Board made their
return at FIVE o'clock, when the counsel
for the relator asked and was granted
until to-day to examine the return, and
the court adjourned.

NEW ORLEANS.
The LouIslana sItuatIop.

New ORLEANS, January 2, IL m.-The
situation is unchanged. Everything is
quiet, The Legislature is constituted
as follows at the State House:
Seuate-Eight holding over, and eleven
returned by the Board. House-Sixty-
eight members returned by the Board,
twenty-five Of whom are Democrats, and
it is claimed they were not elected.
St. Patriek's Hall.-Ssnate-None
holding over; eight returned by the
Board and four who we're counted cut,
but claim they were elected. House
Forty returned by the Board and twenty
two who claim they were elected, but
counted out by the Board.
Telegraph communication is still
badly interrupted.
Shortly before noon the committee
from the House from ST.. Patrick's Hall,
consisting Of Mr.. B. Il. Wilde, of Or.
leans, j. M. Williams, Of East Baton
Rouge, and Singleton, Of 81. Landry,
waited upon Governor Kellogg at
the State House, and present.
ed a written communication inform.
ing him that the House of
Representatives was organized at
st. Patrick's Hall, at the same time en-.
tering into solid protest against the DC.
~cupation Of the State House BY armed
police and militia, against the exclusion
from the State House of the duly elected
representatives of the people, and
against tie presence of armed Metro
politans and soldiers.
Governor Kellogg replied that there
were several statements contained in the
communication which we're incorrect.
There we're no military, pro perly speak
ing, in the State House. Yesterday
there was a force Of police armed not
differently from the way in which they
were ordinarily armed in conservation of
peace. They were specially instructed
not TO interfere With any member OF the
Legislature, but to protect them from
interference by others. There we're no
United States troops in the State House.
1t was not true that any p~assage.way
had been cut from the State House
to an adjoining building to fa-
cilitate the bringing OF troops into
the building. Whatever communication
existed had existed a long time. AS to
the House, which the committee claimed
had been legally and properly organized,
the law provided that the Secretary Of
State should furnish the CleTek with a
list of members elected; hat the list was
furnished the Clerk. Sixty.eight Of the
members whose names were on that
list appeared in the regular hall of the
House Of Representatives yesterday, and
forty or forty-three at most appeared in
81. Patrick's Hall. He must decline to
receive any communication from a body
which lacked nearly twenty of a quorum.
