The Louisiana Investigation.
THE ALLEGED INELIGIBLE ELECToR.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.
The senate subcommittee on Louisiana
examined A. B. Levisee of louisiana, an
alleged ineligible Hayes elector. Witness
resided at Shreveport, but spends half his
time in New Orleans; was circuit judge
four and half years, and has held the Of
fee of United States commissioner; was a
Hayes elector; was also attorney for the
district of Shreveport; was appointed
United States commissioner in September,
1874; was appointed by Judge Wood of
the circuit court. The appointment of a
commissioner, witness thinks, may be
made by judge whether assisted by the
court or whether the court be IN session or
not. Held office of commissioner until
November 20; 1876 took aff1davits in rela-
tion to the election; was holding that office
November and continued to discharge the
duties afterwards; took afidavits concern
ing the election at Shreveport; acted as
elector on December 6; met in the college
of electors; did not act at first with the
electoral college, but did 30 finally. Wad-
leigh submitted copies from the circuit
court of Louisiana of the appointment,
resignation of, and acceptance of the resig-
nation on the date when it was accepted !;
can't say what court was in session at the
time. Witness was not present in court
when the order was made.
Mr.. Saulsbury-The transcript shows
that only Judge Billings of the district
court was present. Witness-That is prob
ably true.
The resignation was intended to have
the effect of vacating the office, and not
simply to evade the disqualification of wit
ness as an clector. 1t was in entire good
faith. Witness has never since that date
said to any one that the resignation was
not necessary, but had said that he had
great doubts whether his office of commits
sioner was disqualification; cannot say
that he ever argued such proposition with
Judge Eager. George l.. Smith took wit
ness resignation to court, and in an hour
afterwards 1t was accepted received no
information from Judge Wood of the &C
ceptance Of the resignation had no reason
to doubt Smiths word. Witness sent re-
slgnation to Judge Wood, enclosed in q
letter TO Smith from Shreveport, requesting
Smith to have it attended to; Smith me-
elected to see to II until after witness went
to New Orleans; then witness called his at.
tention to 1t, and he did 30. Salisbury read
from Sherman's report on the affidavit with
no atlantis. The signature attached to II
was taken before Levisee, November 10
1876, which witness thought to be a mis-
take. A proposition was made to witness
for consideration to cast the electoral vot,
for Tilden. December witness was IL
New Orleans at the residence of Mrs. Bar
low, in Constantinople street; that day
witness dined out and returned home at
o'clock. As soon as he went TO the parlor
Mrs. Barlow and daughter being present
] one of them gave witness note, askinl

From Manchester Journal: The Fac

There is quite a flutter in the matrimo-
NAL line in our staid old town. Our former
teacher in the graded school, Miss Jennie
Croft, has married Mr.. W. G. Marsh of
Clarendon.
Mr.. D. II. Hulett has taken Miss Georgia
Crowley of Mount Holly away from her
paternal home to journey with him.
Now we are expecting our pastor, Rev.
s. II. Archibald, of the first Baptist church
here to take helpmate in the person of
the lovely Miss N OF West Pawlet.
Batchelder g. Sons have just placed q

fill the old store with new goods.
Mr.. Hulett, of the firm of Grape & HUI

wedding trip through the cities of Boston

by fire on Wednesday sight. The owner
was absent at the time, attending the we'd
