NEW ORLEANS, April, 20. The co Al
missicners feel that their mi ssion here Is
ended and they have in al probability
so reported I, the Pcsidcut In JOIN;
caucus of the Senate and HOUSE of
Paekard's Legislature today. General
Mcmillan is reported a. saying that he
saw no reason flr changing 'ae views
rs expressed by him yesterday, bat oil
the contrary the evidence multiplied
every hour to strengthen the conviction
that the adherents of Packard's gov
eminent were engaged III "a hopeless
contest. He declared it was useless
and unjust to indulge in invectives
against President Hayes, as he was
not the author, nor in any way respon-
sible for the barrassments under
which their government was laboring
The overthrow occurred ON the 9th day
Of January Ivy revolution. and if the
aid of the General government WAS
improperly withheld. the blame should
rest upon President Grant. and not
upon President Hayes. The underiay-
ing causes Of its defeat, however, has
q general rather than local nature,
and more potent than any relating to
Louisiana alone. The peace and well
fare of the whole country demands
complete and final settlement of all
questions growing out Of the disturbed
and disputed government in this State.
The establishment and maintenance Of
our government could only b. accom-
piished by force. which could not be
obtained. OF this he had had ample
assurance from those who have autbori
ty to speak. In his opinion it WAS the
duty Of the representatives. Of the peo-
pie remaining in this assembly to look
the inevitable squarely in the face and
save as much as possible from the disas-
ter and overthrow, not only for the po-
litieal party to which they belong but
for the constituencies they represent
To this end he again advised an adjust
meut by the Republican members AS
body with the opposing and successful
party and an acceptance of the most
favorable terms which could be OBJ
tanned

Within the last eighteen years twelve
falls of meteoriC stones have occurred in
the United States, Of which specimens
have been collected. Eight of these falls
took place in the prairie region of the
West, extending from Ohio to Kansas,and
from Kentucky to Wisconsin, inclusive.
Prof. j. L. Smith of Louisville gives a
map of this region in the Amrrtcdn Jour
nal of Science and Arts, showing the To-
cality of each fall, and he states the ag-
gregate estimated weight of the eight was
900 kilogrammes, equal to more than
2300 pounds. Going back further, and
taking period ofsixty years, Prof Smith
finds that there have been twenty well
noted falls in the United States, ten of
which were in the same region; and those
ten weighed twenty times as much as the
ten which occurred outside its limits.

date for Vice President in 1883, pleading
with friend to use his influence to OBJ
tain a pardon for the late Gen. Forrest.
Mr.. Blair says:
"The objection urged to his pardon is
the clamor raised against him on account
OF the Fort Pillow capture and reported
massacre Of its garrison. He assures
me, and l rely with perfect confidence
on his statement, that he ordered no one
to be killed after the capture, and exert
ed himself to save all prisoners. He has
receipts for over three hundred prison.
ers taken by him in that garrison, and
turned over to Gen Polk and our gun
boats, and he can prove conclusively that
the garrison refused to surrender, and af-
ter he stormed the fort they retreated
with their arms in their hands toward
the river, under previous arrangement
with the captain Of the gunboat to retire
TO the bank Of the river, and he would
drive the assailants out of the fort with
the artillery"

WEED AND HAYES.

William M. Tweed, according to the
evidence in his case, misappropriated a
large sum of money belonging to the
city of New York. He has been punish
ed by Imprisonment in the penitentiary,
and when subsequently he escaped from
Ludlow street Jail and fled to foreign
lands, the Government of the United
States stretched forth its long arm, and
laid its heavy hand upon him, and
brought him home to endure further
confinement.
Rutherford B. Hayes,by means offraud-
ulent returns, has misappropriated the
high office of President of the United
States. Mr.. Justice Strong, whose vote,
on purely technical grounds, conferred
this office upon Mr.. Hayes, considers
Mr.. Hayes's title to it no better than
that of Mr.. Tweed to the money which
he misappropriated.
Mr.. Tweed in prison; Mr.. Hayes in
the White House! Is this right.-N Y.
