POLICE COURT, YESTERDAY-Foltce-Ju
tice Joseph j. White preSiding.-The court
room was crowded with spectators, lnclud-
ing the loafers who have been in daily at
tendance for years. The atmosphere was
close and foul, and those coming in out OF
the fresh air OF the streets found respiration
difficult until they had gotten somewhat
accustomed to the situation.
The following persons were lined Tor Vlo-
lation OF the ordinances:
John Harris, 81 for keeping his barber
shop open on Sunday; Caroline Schwartz
and Thomas O'Conner, 81 each for allow
ing their horses to run at large on the
streets: Lew Pollard, $40 for keeping his
bar-room open and selling liquor on Sum
day: Marcus Bowles (colored), 81 for
creating a nuisance on Marshall street !;
Joseph Holzback was fined $40 for keeping
his bar-room, corner Seventeenth and Grace
streets, open and selling liquor on Sunday.
This is the third time this house has been
reported within q few months past. The
neighbors threaten to appeal to Judge
Guigon for a revocation OF the license OF
the house.
Monday night fight occurred in Fry's
bar-room, on Broad street, between John
West and Wilson Nash (both colored). Du-
ring the 1raClS w eSG StlLtu Il Ucci etaao uue u

face, cutting his nose and left cheek very
badly. They were arrested and taken TO
the station-house. Yesterday their case was
called in the Police Court and continued
until to-day. West was required to give
bail for his appearance. He is bad and
dsorderly character, and for the good OF
the community will doubtless find lodgings
in the Jail.
Henry. Patterson (colored), for trespassing
on the premises Of J. j. Crutchfeld, was
sent to Jail in default Of surety.
Mathew Owen (colored), charged with fe-
ioniously cutting and wounding Martha
Hudson, was discharged. Martha, an old

I lsIS pemOeratic 3 count was as follows:


s. B. Packard. ..76 AIT F. T. Nichols. ....s4 4s7
The average Republican electoral vote,
as declared BY the Democratic count, was
IS 759, and the average Democratic vote
was S3 635-DemooraEic majority 1876 The
vote Tor Packard, as declared by tine Dem
Ocrats, was 76, Az; for Nichols 81, 487-Dem-
,ocratic majority S0l0.
Now it is to be observed that the Demo
cratic count agreed with the Republican
count 10 this, that two Of the Republican
electors ran far ahead of the rest of the
ticket, By this count only two had larger
vote than Packard, and their vote exceed
ed his by only 697 and 69l respectively. By
this count also Packard ran ahead Of the
other six electors by from 500 to 1000 votes.
The two counts also agreed in this that the
average difference between the two cleo
tOral tickets was rather larger than the
difference between Packard's vote and that
given for Nichols. But the Democratic
count as well as the Republican, shows
that this difference was caused by the large
increase in the vote for the Republican
eleetOrs-at-large over their associates on
the ticket.
These are the facts in the case on which,
/ so far as figures ara concerned, all argu.
ment must be based.
When it comes down to argument there
is a chance to go to work on the technieali-
ties of the case Bat if one goes to the
1 O4uAeASS Va bAo AohNAnE NA4 ubACA OOh-
sideratiOns out of sight, the broad fact re-
mains that by both Republican and Demo-
cratic counts, PaeGard received more votes
than half of the Republican electors This
is hard. pan. 1t may be argued that the
| count of votes for Governor is not legally
made by the Returning Board, that it is the
| function of the Legislature. We shall be
much mistaken if the people see in this plea
| anything but a subterfuge. The members
/ of the UeQislature besides hold office under
authority of the findings of the Returning
Board. The people will want this case de-
| cldad on its merits, and they will be hard
to be convinced that the man who tws
counting boards, Of opposite parties, agree
in saying has received more votes than at
least half OF the Hayes electors, has not as
valid a title TO office as those tour electors.
IN other words, If the four Hayes electors
rightly held office, then Packard holds
| Office rightly; and If Packard Is not entitled
to his Office, neithsr were the four Hayes
electors.

A nIathemn,leal pemonstrn,ion.

In commenting on the Democratic ad-
dress by the congressional representa-
tives of the party caucus, as the last wall
of the otice-seekers who have been not
merely defeated, but defeated in disgrace
for the methods they employed to achieve
success, the Chicago Tribune quotes DR..
Redfeld's remarks, that if Louisiana had
been declared for Tilden we should have
had the singular spectacle of President
elected by murder. It also restates the
vote of Louisiana, and puts the question
in more concise form than it has yet ap-
peared in:
Great stress is laid by the Democratic
managers on the action of the Louisiana
Returning Board. This is their whole case
In stating it they deliberately suppress the
facts which warranted that board in exer-
eising its judicial function in purgiDg the
returns of fraud We have on different
occasions showed that in five parishes alons
those frauds were sufficient to account for
the fraudulent Democratic msjority in the
State. We will restate it in somewhat diff
ferent shape, as follows:

any compromise Is possible. Packard and
his Radical alIieF seem indisposed TO accept
anything but clean victory o. clean de-
feat. They have taken q bold and deter
mined stand agsinst the conservative poll
cy, and will not yield TO any persuasion,

Thsre are some disputes which can be
best adjusted by leaving them to the opera
tions of time; but this is not one Of these.
Delay is dangerous. Every day complexities

Tc tai frauds in ave counties :.


In the single parish Of East Feliciana,
where the Republicans had cast 1858 votes
in 1874, and had registered nearly 2200 for
1876, they were not permitted to cast one
solitary ballot, while the Democrats stuffed
the ballot boxes to the extent of more than
double their actual voting strength in the
parish The Democratic frauds are prop
erly represented. therefore, not merely by
the stufing of the ballot box, p2t BY the
Republican votes which they prevensSd
from being cast by threats, violence and
intimidation,
This is the whole case. It is easily COM
pretended, the items have been proved,
the figures are undoubted, and thus stated
4he conclusion is irresistible that in an
honest co,, mt the Democratic party would
be honestly defeassSse,...
