The Congressional committees
have continued their investigations in
Louisiana with little intermission
right through holidays. No one who
has carefully read the evidence given
can possibly have failed to note the
contrast in the character of what has
been developed by the respective COM
mittees, Should we grant that both
committees are honestly seeking for
facts, it is none the less suggestive
that the House committee only finds
witnesses who have been threatened
by their preachers or their wives, or
- asa.ary worst have come out see
ond best IN a fist hgny on account, as
they say. of Democratic proclivities;
while before the Senate Committee
there have appeared dozens Of wit
nesses, many of them with gaping
wounds, who swore to knowledge of
hanging, whipping, shooting, cutting
and dragging to death at a horses
heels, perpetrated by white Demo-
Gratis upon colored Republicans
Before the Returning Board the
Democrats attempted to diSprove the
testimony against the bulldozers; but
finding that impossible-seeing that
the country must and would believe
that terrible violence had been used
prior to election, they have wholly
changed their tactics and are now try
ing to make it appear that these
crimes Were as often perpetrated by
Republicans against Democrats as
vice versa. Vain effort! To say moth
ing Of the character of the bulldozed
Democratic negroes, many of whom
by their own admissions were picked
up about New Orleans with the worst
of antecedents, their stories of wrong
suffered are so thin and tame compar-
ed with those of Pinkston, Ben James,
Sophia Payne, William Wade, Benja-
min Morgan, and dozens of others
who have testified before the Senate
Committee, as to seem simply ridieu-
lous. Some very different evidence
from any yet secured by Randal's Gag
er committee will have to appear he
fore it will be able to overturn the con-
clusion that fraud and terrorism were
80 practiced against the colored Re
publicans in many parishes and pre-
cincts as to dishonesty change the re-
suit OF the election in the State. The
only open question is as to whether,
under the election laws, the Board
were warranted in throwing out such
parishes and precincts.

Painting Farm Buildings.

There are numerous good reasons for se-
lecting the cool weather of October and
November as the best time for applying
paint to buildings which are exposed to the
weather. But there is one which is based
upon common sense alone, and that is we

customed to look upon painting as some-
thing which can only be accomplished by
professional painters, and are apt to make

wages at the rate Of three Or four dollars
per day. This is mistake. Modern en-
terprise and ingenuity have reduced the
painting OF farm buildings TO q very simple

The Milwaukee Hisconssn has this social
incident to tell: ga young lady in this
city recently made herself the victim of
ridiculous mistake. A handsome and
wealthy gentleman, whose acquaintance
she had just formed, invited her to attend
dress party in his company. She accept
ed, and arrayed herself for the event with
unusual care. To her surprise and morti-
fcation, he appeared TO escort her TO the
party attired in white linen coat. She
invited MIN to be seated, and then begged
to be excused for a few moments. To her
mother she stated she would be ashamed
to go with him If he wore that coat. It
was finally decided that she should ask the
gentleman TO spend the evening at the
house. Ashamed, but determined, ahe
told him she did not believe any Of the gen-
tlemen would wear white linen coats at
the party, and they had better not 90
delightful evening could be passed at home,
&c. The gentleman took the matter good
and remarked !. Why. this ia
only my duster.n The lady recovered
from her mortiflcation sufficiently to attend
the party.

Bardell VS.. Fickwiek.

The testimony of Miss Jane Parry, the
plaintiff in breech-of-promise case, which
came before the Queens Bench Division,
London, fortnight ago, is as racy as any
thing between the covers of "Pickwlck Pa
pers." She explained to the jury she was
"the proprietress of shell fish shop" and
that the defendant "was in the bottle way
and such like" After telling her that his
home was furnished '' beautiful and that
he was seeking wife, he added:
"Well, what do you say for yourselfe
Your are good daughter to your parent" !"
She answered that she would never leave
her parent. When the old lady died and
the whole shell-fish business became hers,
the defendant said to her:
Your mother is dead now.''

therefore not before six MONTHS she an
swered.
At the end of six months he again asked
her to marry him, and she told him that he
was foreigner and had better marry one
of his own country women who could speak
his sentiments which she could not. He
replied that they must be married the next
day.

pages, but she accounted for it's absence on
the theory that she "did not put any in

How q Wise-Beassr was Treated.

The Wheeling papers give an account Of
how they treat wife-beaters down the Ohio
river. At New Martinsville lives man
named Huber, who had been in the habit
Of whipping his wife when he happened
either to have in too much applejack or
when she did anything to displease him.
Ono of these unfortunate conditions exist
ed the other night, and he walioped her
soundly. The neigEbors heard the cries.
They seized Huber, and, notwithstanding
the entreatles Of the sore e-beaten wife, hur-
ried him off to the river. Hers commit
tee had the exquisite pleasure, OF giving
him ducking. He bawled loudly for
mercy every time his head came out OF tho
water, and protested TO high Heaven that
he would never maltreat his wife again.
These promises were echoed BY successive
duckings until the fellow was nearly
drowned. It was lesson ha win no. be
apt to forget In a hurry. .

Paris Exposition.

The work on the Exposition buildings
still goes on, though very slowly. Even
here in Paris no one will say with conf
dence that there win be an Exposition held;
the general fear is that there will be none.
1t must all depend upon the political situa-
tion remaining unchanged. On the grounds
the other day met our old frie nds of the
Centennial from China-I mean the exhib-
itors. They believe there is to be an Ex-
position in Paris next year, and they are
making the most extensive preparations for
it. They say they made much money at
the Philadelphia fair, and they expect to
make more here. Tie buildings are of the
noblest kind. The main building is of
grand design, and to be constructed of
stone. Ir is already sufficiently advanced
to give one an idea of what it is to be. Ger
tainly 10 money is being spared in the
character of the material, but there are few
workmen employed, and the wolk drags on
so slowly as to create the impression that
the government itself is in doubt of the Ex-
position being held. Should it be, let those
oil our citizens who think of visiting it be
prepared to pay for the luxury. The pro-
pri.tor of the hotel at which am staying
assures me that the prices will not be ad-
yanced more than 80 or so per cent. If he
admits SO much of an increase we may safe
rely upon much larger one, and Paris
is as dear city to-day as Philadelphia or
New York. Nothing is cheap here except
luxuries and things one does not want.
Tue real substantial things are as dear as
elsewhere.
