POLITICAL POINTS.

Duncan F. Kenner, of New Orleans the man
whom j. Madison Wells, of the Louisiana
Returning Board, testified offered him (Wells)
$500 900 TO declare the result of the election
in that State for Hlden, was before the House
pnerogative committee last week. His testi-
mony was to the effect that Wells and he had
several secret interviews at which the sale
of the vote of Louisiana was the subject Of
deEberation that Wells was anxious to en-
ter into negotiations, but wanted 'big
pile" for the job, intimating that about
million dollars would be the proper figure, as
Anderson himself wanted half a million. The
witness said this was perfectly ridiculous, and
if the demand was insisted upon, they might as
well drop matters. After the PRONUNCIATION of
the vote they met, and witness expressed his
establishment and regret at Wells course. Wells
said what could 1 do? You had no money"
Witness said he hoped Wells had made himself
safe and Wells replied, "You bet or words to
that effect. The money, the witness said, was
to be raised by subscription, he himself propos-
ing to give $4,000.

Valuable Fire.PrOOt Composition.

An interesting test has just been
made on the stage of McVicker's
Theater, Chicago, of a newly-invented
fire-proof preparation for stage scenery
and properties. The test, which was
made in the presence of a number of
city officials, the local papers report was
every way satisfactory. The canvas, as
it came from the store, blazed instantly
when ignited and burned freely; but,
after being coated with the preparation,
the canvas would only char under a
three-quarter inch blow-pipe of gas,
would not even ignite at the ordinary APP
plication of fire, and would not blaze
under any circumstances. Pieces of
wood of the thickness of the framework
used for scenes and scene-shifting, which
had also been coated with fire-paint,
were but slightly charred under blaze
of gas for as much as five minutes.
The preparation has been applied to
every bit of scenery, canvas, curtains,
woodwork and machinery employed on
the stage of McVicker's Theater, and, as
a protection against fires, it is claimed
to be worth more than all the devices
that can be suggested for. additional IA
cilities of exit in the auditorium of a
theater. This valuable preparation is
destined to be utilized not alone by thea
ter people, but will be found of incalcu-
liable benefit to the public at large, and
farmers in particular. By applying it
to barns and other outbuildings, these
structures can be rendered almost abso-
lutely fre-proof, and safeguard will
thus be afforded against the occurrence
of accidental and incendiary fires, to
which our agricultural friends are so
constantly subject. The preparation
consists of combination of silicate,
tungstate of soda and whiting. Full
particulars as to how to make and apply
this cheap, invaluable precaution against
fire will be furnished cheerfully and
free of charge, on application to Mr.. l..
l.. Sharpe, the business manager of Nc
Vickers Theater, Chicago.

The Senate Committee on Territories has de-

The Washington correspondent OF the CHI
cago 7S-i5tlse telegraphs There are good
reasons for believing that President Grant will
decline 10 interfere in Louisiana during the
remaining two weeks Of his administration, ex-
cept to maintain the present peaceable status
in quo. There have been several important
differences of Republicans, at which it was do
cided to recommend this course to the Presi-
dent, and Secretary Fish has been requested to
use his influence to that end. 1t is urged by
them that the retiring administration should
not undertake the management Of this compli-

The Washington Capital of Sunday, Feb. 1S,
contained fiery article upon the decision of
the Electoral Tribunal, in which the following
passage occurred: eff man thus returned to
power can ride in safety from the Executive
Mansion to the Capitol to be inaugurated, we
are fitted for the slavery that will follow the in
auguration. We do not believe the people of
the United States are of this servile sort.
We do not believe that they are prepared,
without blow, to part with their
hard-earned, blood-stained possessions. No
tee is now served on the citizens of Louisi-
ana and South Carolina that they must care
for themselves. How soon lamp-posts will bear
fruit is for them to say. To the people of the
North and West notice is given that the bond.
holders and monopolies may fatten securely
that shrinkage Of values is now in order. II
there is law for fraud, there is reason for VIC
lence, and to that we make our last appeal.
The appearance of TINS article was the subject
of Cabinet meeting the following day, a
which it was determined to prosecute Dor
Piatt, the editor of the Capital, for sedition
and libel upon the President.

How Anna Dickinson Makes Love.

Anna Dickinson is failure in the love
scenes of her own plays. When the ex-
pel1enced actor sidles up to her and
reaches his arms around her rigid waist,
she grabs him by the wrist and holds him
off at arms length while he says his
piece, and then, when she reaches the
melting moment and lowers her head to
let it droop upon his shoulder, the con-
strained action is SO like the gesture of a
venerable William goat in the act of as
sisting teasing boy over pasture fence
that the audience gleefully look to see
the unhappy lover butted clear over into
the orchestra fiddles, and there is a gen.
eral murmur of disappointment when he
braces his feet and receives the drop of
her head with scarcely audible grunt.-

THE LOUISIANA CASE.
Grounds for the Decision of the Electoral
Tribunal.

The decision Of the Electoral Commission in
the case of Louisiana is in language about the
same as in that of Florida. 1t reads as follows
The brief ground of the decision is, that il
appears, upon such evidence as by the consti-
tuition and law named in said act of Congress
electoral law is competent and pertinent to
the consideration of the subject that the
aforementioned electors appear to have been
lawfully appointed such electors of President
and Vice President of the United States for
the term beginning March A. 1877, of the State
of Louisiana, and that they voted as such at
the time and in the manner provided for by the
constitution OF the United States and the law:
and the commission has, by majority of votes.
decided that it IL not competent under the
constitution and law, as 1t existed at the date of
the passage OF said act, to go into evidence
diiunde of the papers opened by the President
of the Senate in presence of the two houses
TO prove that other persons than those regular

and according to the determination of their an

show that they had not, or that the determine

cordance with the truth and fact-the commits
sion, by majority of votes, being of the
opinion that IL is not within the jurisdiction of
the two houses of Congress assembled to count
the vote for President and Vice President TO
enter upon the trial Of such question.
The commission, by a majority of votes. is
also of the opinion that it is not competent to

Shocking Fratricide.

Charles Seifert was lately shot and
killed by his brother George, in hotel
owned by the father of the boys in Etna
Borough, a suburb of Pittsburgh The
fratricide had been. drinking, and quar-
relied with his brother about the settle
ment of a difficulty which the family had
with persons in the adjoining town of
Blairsville. At the time of the shooting
the brothers were in the bar-room to-
gether, and George persisted in drinking
against the advice of Charles. In the
quarrel that ensued the Blairsville
trouble was adverted to. Then both
men became greatly excited George,
it appears, had compromised several
suits for assaults and batteries in con-
sideration of $25. Charles rated him
for this, whereupon George applied
most offensive epithet to him, and fled
toward the door. Charles followed him
with an uplifted chair, and, just as he
came within striking distance, George
fired upon him, and he fell shot through
the body. He expired soon after. De
ceased was stalwart man over six feet
in height, and of very peaceable DISPOSE
ton. He was "a years of age, and
leaves wife and one child. The fratri-
eide, George, is boy of 10, and drunk
ard. Immediately after the murder he
himself, and is now in Jail.
