NEW ORLEANS. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY e. 1877

dlscord In their counsels as the outside
world 10 given to understand; they will
pursue programme which will have
all the practical effect OF fllibustering
but will avoid the appearance OF 1t.
"The Senate will probably prevent the
consumption OF time In reading the
prelix objections from South Crrolina,
but 1t will be necessary to defeat their
(the Demoerats) line Of objections In
the House one by one as they bring
them up, or the count cannot possibly
be concluded before midnight Saturday.
They have the hours counted and
the thing cooked to q nlcety, so that
while appearing to go on with the count
they will still be able to obstruet IL
enough to suit their purposes. They
even have arrangements made for dila-
tory motions ut different stages of the
proceedings. which will be voted down
by preconeert and with much show OF
Indignation, but In reality with q per-
feet understanding between tho movers
and the opponents Of the delay.
"The programme IL to produce such
state OF things by Saturday that 1t will
be seen TO be impossible to finish. Then
Ii 10 understood that Conkling and seven
other Republicans will bolt the Senate
Republican CAUCUS and cooperate with
the twenty-nine Democrats to prevent
Ferry from counting the remaining
votes, pass Fields bill for q new elec-
tion, and elect Conkling President of
the Senate pro tenn, and
THIS SCHEME MEETS THE APPROVAL or
GRANT WHO WILL SIGN THE FIELD BILL.
Nov the only way to defeat. this pro-
gramme Is by getting HI and his
thirty followers In the House, to stand
squarely with the Republicans--vote
against every one of the Ave objections
which have been arranged for, and
vote against recess In the South Caro-
lima case. A word to the wise."
/" Please destroy as soon as read"
"Yours truly"
OF course this letter was written for
the private information OF q Republican
manager by Democratic gentleman
who wishes to make himself solid with
the new deal. 1t is q very interesting
letter, and / may eventually make 1t
more interesting to one or two more
gentlemen at least than IL Is now.

Close upon the robbery of Mr.. Shaw

other horse robbery.
On Sunday evening the horse and bug
gy Of DR.. Auguste Capdeville disap-
peared from the front of the Doctors
residence, opposite the Opera House, on
bourbon street. Shortly after the dis
appearance, the Doctors horse re-
turned to his stable minus, however,
harness and buggy. The buggy was
found little later between two wood
piles on the bank of he Old Basin,
where, in all probability, it had been
deposited with the intention of ship
ping it across the lake on some out-go-
ing schooner. The harness is still miss
ing.
Mr.. +. Leblanc. Wharfmaster at Don
writes to contemporary
that man representing himself as A.
A. kittredge got off the Henry Tete at
Denaldsonyille ON Saturday morning
last, leaving a mare behind him in pay
ment OF his passage on board that
steamer, and that the mare answers the
description OF Mr.. Shawhan's animal.
The mare was placed in charge of
stables.

ESPECIAL 10 N. 0. Democrat.l !

WASHINGTON, Feb. ae.-~Majer Burke
to-day fled with the President list of
one hundred and forty Republican oftl-
cials who have recognized the Nichols
government and accepted their COM
missions from Governor Nichols.
The interview with Grant was long
and very satisfactory. He said unequi-
vocally that he Is satisfied that the
Nichols government is the government
which should stand In Louisiana, and
that he believes II will stand, because
IL is sustained by the best elements Of
the State. He believed also that the
Packard government cannot exist with.
out the support and assistance OF
troops, and that the sentiment OF
the country Is decidedly opposed
to the further use OF troops In uphold
ing State governments. He repeated
his favorable opinion OF Gov. Nichols,
and had confidence In the latter's de-
termination to secure u good govern
ment and enforce the law. La his opin-
ion there would be no interference with
the Nichols government unless, car
ried away by the possession Of power,
violent excuses might be committed
which would neoessitate Intervention.
Louisiana Republicans here are
gloomy and despondent. They see their
inevitable doom. Il. L. JEWELL.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 25.-A special dis
patch from Fremont, to the Gazette
says: Gov. Hayes arrived here unex.
pectedly last evening and an impromptu
reception was given him. He was intro
duced by Gen. Buckland, who said :
Friends, have the pleasure Of intro
lieve."
Gov. Hayes said:
Friends and neighbors-The manner
in which I am introduced makes it
rather easy for me to speak without
much embarrassment, but we had bet
ter stick to the old title until assured Of
something new. In these times of un-
certainty we are often disappointed.

During the few months since the 9TH of

as not to be very much down or very
much up, but to try and keep as near
the middle line as possible. This
kindly meeting this evening I do not
take so much as honoring me as con-
graduation upen the manner in which
the strange and peculiar question is
now being settled. No other country in
the world could have endured such a
struggle without suffering lasting ca
lamities.

for the next two or three years, l will
attend the next Pioneer meeting and
pring bundle of letters and notes,

about twenty minutes Mr.. Kelley re-

which seemed carried by the sound.
