The testimony of LOUIS NJ. Kenuer, one

The testimony of LOUIS NJ. Kenuer, one
of the L )uislana returning board, together
with the production of the original returns
from Vernon parish, produced quite a sem
satlon in Washington, and makes auything
but pleasant case with which to so before
the trlpsrtlte commission. 1t appears from
this original return, that the votes were al
tered in two precincts so as to make diff
ference of three hundred and fifty-six votes
against the Tilden electors, and that this
alteration was made after the returns were
opened in the presence of Senator Sher-
mans and Governor Palmer's committee.
1t is reported IN Washington, and appar-
emily believed, that the democracy have
other original returns showing similar ell
teraiions, and enough in amount to change
the result as to three of the electors. The
refusal of the witness Ktnner TO explain
the alteia,i and of one Littleheld, one
of the clerks Of the board, to answer any
questions relative thereto, Certainly gives it
very bad look.

A Candid statement,

II is but justice to acknowledge facts
and reward merit when due let 1t fall upon
whom 1t may. Very many are prejudiced
against using a patent medicine, because
there are 30 many worthless, daily adver-
tised; but there are exceptions and Shiloh's
Consumption Cure is one Of these. No
Medicine could for moment stand under
the test given this unless 1t had superior
merit. Never before has Cough Remedy
acquired 30 large sale in 81 short time,
and gwen such universal satisfaction. You
cannot afford to refuse to try 1t for Throat
or Lung trouble. Your prejudice will
certainly yield after using Ii; otherwise con-

KellOgg's Prospects.

From the New Orleans Picayune.
It is now confidently asserted
that the grand jury will take Kel-
logg in hand this winter, and nail
him in connection with some doings
intimately associated with Audit
orial crookedness and Funding
Board gymnastics. The irons are
now in the fire, and it will soon be
seen to what extend they may burn.
Said a prominent member of State
Senate last evening to a reporter :
"W. p. Kellogg has been voted a
seat in the United States Senate,
but he is not destined to occupy
that place very long, not longer
than a year, perhaps two years.
Just as soon as the Legislature is
convened intend to offer joint
resolution, declaring that w. p.
Kellogg was never elected United
States Senator from Louisiana, and
that Judge Spofford was duly elect
ed to represent this State in the
ton of time when the Democrats
will obtain the CONTROL of the Sen
ate, and with that joint resolution
before them, they will expel this
man Kellogg from their body.

Mr.. Cobb, from the Committee on
Mileage, submitted the following report
Ito accompany bill III. II. go:
The Committee on Mileage, 10 which
was referred House bill No. $50, bill
Providing for the payment Of mileage
TO members of Congress for attendance
upon extra or called sessions OF Con-
gress," has had the same under consid-
Grafton, and has directed me TO report
the same back to the House, and recon-
mend that IL do not pass.
And the committee has further direct
ed me to report to the House that, in
the opinion of the committee, there Is
now no law in force giving members OF
Congress mileage tor attendance upon
extra or called sessions OF Congress.
Mark the pathos of the last
paragraph of the report: "There
is now no law in force giving men,
bers of Congress mileage for at
tendance upon extra or called ses-
sion of Congress. 1t is enough to
make one weep to think of the
distress that report must have
caused among members of Con-
gress, and especially of the distress
it occasioned the honorable member
from the eighth.

Mr.. Allison who has charge
of the House bill to author
ize the free coinage of silver dol

what legal impediments, if any,
exsist which prevent him from ex-

same so as to allegc that the
branches of the Uuion Pacific are
the Kansas Pacific, Denver Pacific,
Central Pacific, of California, the
Burlington q Missouria River, and
the Sioux City Branch, instead of
declaring positively that they are

The World Moves Swiftly.

From the Chicago tribune.
The House of Representatives
yesterday repealed the iron-oiad
oath, substituting therefor a mil
der-mannered phrase, more in keep
ing with the general idea of sec
tional good will and mutual for
bearance. 1t also repealed the
statutory provision making service
in the rebel army cause for chal-
lenge in the making up of juries.
The world moves swiftly, and many
people have forgotten many things.
Such propositions, had they been
made even five years ago, would
have furnished themes for exciting
debate in both Houses.

especially the luubermen of the
"Saginaw Valley" may know what
their Representative in Congress,
Mr.. Charles G. Ellsworth has been
doing toward solving the great
financial problem of the day,
and relieving the sufferings of the
laboring man, who can live, he
says, on fifteen cents per day, we
have obtained a copy Of bill-the
first, we believe, that he introduced
during the session-and we here
with give it in full for their infor-
nation, with the advice to cut it
out and lay it away for future
reference:
T45TH CONGRESS, 1sT sEssIoN--H. X. 6501
In the House of Representatives, Oct.
80, 1877. Read twice, referred 10 the
Committee on Mileage, and ordered to
be printed.
Mr.. Ellsworth, on leave introduced
the following bill
A bill providing for the payment OF
mileage to members of Congress for at
tendance upon extra session of Congress.
BE 10 enacted 6y The Senate and House OF
Representatives. If he United States OF
America in Congress dsmebled. That
Senators and members of the House OF
Representatives of the United States shall
be entitled to the same pay as mileage for
any called or extra session OF Congress
rs they are now allowed by law for at
tending regular session OF Congress.
Sec. 2. This act shall apply to the extra
or special session of Congress called by
the proclamation of the President to
convene on the fifteenth day of October,
ammo Domini one thousand eight hundred
and seventy-seven.
Ellsworth's proposition to re-
lieve, in part, the financial distress
of members of Congress, was not
allowed to slumder long in the
Committee on Mileage. That i'm
portant committee, which is under
stood to meet once at each session
for the purpose of "ascertaining
and reporting the distance to
the Sergeant-at Arms, for which
each member shall receive pay"
was hastily called together to con-
slider this important bill; and
after many hours Of patient dis
cussion, and, il is fair to presume,
listening to an eloquent speech
from the author OF the bill, in
which it is quite likely he said that
his proposition was not the "gush
and moonshine Of new MEMBER"
the committee ordered the bill to
be reported adversely. Thus at
one fell swoop was crushed the
fond hopes of Ellsworth that be
could restore, in part, the "balance
of trade" in favor Of "members of
Congress. IL was in order to
relieve his pent up feelings, no
doubt, that the honorable member
rushed madly into the seething
vorses Of Congressional debate and
under cover of .'1eave TO print"
delivered bimsei;; af the remarka-
lie speech, to which we have here
tofore made some slight ai,asions.
