THE SITUATION. 4

Editor Democrdt-Tn common with
your numerous readers, fully appre-
ciate the firm and manly stand taken
by you on the political questions OF the
day. On the present occasion allow
me to return you my thanks for your
Of "a. W."
It Is just such Exercise OF patience
and aspirit of tolerance " recommended
by "a. W." that has strengthened cur
chains and left US to the mercy OF our
enemies In the past. Promises do not
assume performance. Deeds are better
than words. As you remark, 1.-THE
President understands the Louisiana
case thoroughly; there is not
a feature Of it of which he
is ignorant" Why then does
the President keep soldiers here. He
has the power to remove them (sinee by
the grace Of Joe Bradley he Is admitted
to be PresidenD and ought instantly do
1t. This single step would restore peace
and good order to our State and end the
farce of a Packard dynasty. If it is the
duty Of the United States TO protect and
advance usurpers let the United States
honor and reward Packard. We will
none of him. Every honest man in this
State siekens at the name of compro-
mise. Our Governor has been elected
by the people and the people intend to
keep him. SoUTEERNER.

Harvesting I'm. Louisiana.

While strolling down Canal street,
passing before Eyrich's s window, our eye
was attracted by beautiful painting
representing evidently harvest scene
in Louisiana, as could be easily dis
cerned by the Creole look Of the fif-
teenth amendments who are pictured
as loading carts with cow-pea vines, and
the admirably painted cypress trees in
the background. Upon closer inspec-
tion we found out that the painting
which had seduced our eye was Mr.. Ju-
lio's Harvesting Cow-Pea Vines in
louisiana 1t was scarcely neces-
sary for the artist to name
the subject of his chef d 'euvre, as
everything is SO perfectly natural that
there can be no mistake. We particu-
larly compliment Mr.. Julio upon the
admirable pose Of the mules, the life
like holding Of the reins by the driver,
and the natural" of the darkey who,
pitch-fork in hand, bends down to pick
the coW-pea vines.
The cypress trees In the background
are perfect, and nobody acquainted
with Louisiana scenery could fail to be
moved by the remarkable counterfeit.
We forbear speaking of the admirable
management in the coloring, for fear Of
shocking the msdesty Of our artist.

j,
WASHINGTON, March 2.-There Is great
confusion In our councils here relative
TO the advisability Of the Legislature Of
Louisiana electing Senator to oppose
the pretensions Of Kellogg. There have
been some remarkable changes Of
opinion from day to day on this i'm
portant point. ss@
Last Wednesday Mr.. Eustis, at the
suggestion Of Gen. Gibson, telegraphed
to Gov. Nichols advising an immediate
election of Senator; but later Gibson,
Ellis and Levy joined in a telegram ad-
vising delay.
To-day other conferences have been
held here, and it has developed that the
following Democratic Senators uncon-
ditionally favor an Immediate election,
In order to complete the record in the
ease: Eaton. Bayard, Salisbury, Wal
lace, Randolph, Thurman, Mcdonald,
Lamar, Gordon, Jones of Florida, and
Beck. These are all whose views I have
directly ascertained. But cannot find
any authentic information that any
Democratic Senator seriously opposes
the policy Of an immediate election Of q
Senator. BUELL..

HAYES SOUTHERN POLICY.
The Cabinet Unanimously Indorse
1t.
Wheeler and Mixed Committee of DEM
aerats and Republicans 10 Visit the
Southern States and Re-
port to Hayes.
Especial to N. o. Democrat I

WASHINGTON, March 12.-The Cabinet
held a short session this morning, at
which a general and informal discus
sion OF the situation was had, but
no special question was con-
sidered. The general Southern policy
foreshadowed by Hayes in his inaugu-
raj and intimated by him in conversa-
tions with Penn, Gibson and others
since his Inauguration, meets the unani-
nous and cordial Endorsement of the
Cabinet. 1t cannot accurately stated
what specific steps will be taken ia
furtherance of this policy. It is pretty
we'll established that as soon as
the Senate adjourns, Vice Presi-
dent Wheeler, at the head of a
mixed mission of Republicans and
Democrats, will make tour of the
South with the view of ascertaining for
themselves the condition Of the country
and the state of public feeling, and re-
port the same to the President.

The Friendly Republicans Advise
Postponement of Election.
Democratic Senator's Unanimously
Advise Immediate Action.
fspeeial to N. O. Democrat. !

WASHINGTON, March 12.-Eustis de-
sires me TO state, In view Of the tele-
gram sent earlier, that he has not de-
sired to influence the Legislature, and
that all kilograms he has sent have
been at the instance Of other Louisiana
gentlemen here.
Gen. Gibson's action is sufficiently
explained on the ground that, after
Conkling's speech, many who had
hitherto believed 1t good policy to elect
Senator Immediately to contest Kel-
logg, concluded that, In view of the i'm
possibility of Kellogg being seated, 1t
would be well to wait until the Legisla-
ture was organized on basis beyond
dispute before electing.
It is doubtful whether Senators
elected by the Nichols Legislature, as
at present constituted, will be admitted,
even though Kellogg should be ousted.
On the other hand, the Democratic
Senators here almost unanimously ad-
wise the election OF Senator to CON-
plete the record In the case now before
the Senate.
The advice for delay comes mainly
from Republican sources, which, how
ever, are friendly to our interests, and
In accordance with the Presidents pol
Icy. -.sa
Between two such divergent advices
il may be hard for our Legislature to
decide; but In celebrating, 1t should be
borne In mind that II there is partial
danger OF Kellogg being seated, IL
arises from the fact that he is here with
prima facte case, and not regularly
contested by any Senator elect, holding
under credentials for the same term.

gin tomorrow, and after running on a
day or two, be ended by motion to
postpone 1t, which will take the whole
case over to the regular session In De-
cember. Kellogg's case will undoubted-
ly In the end be laid over.
It 10 barely possible that a resolution
that he be not admitted could pass.
Such resolution will not be offered un-
less Conkling should choose that me-
thod of settling the matter, In which
event, OF course, the Democrats would
vote with him.
There are now thirty-two Democrats
and thirty-five Republican Senators in
their seats, besides Davis, who will act
with the Democrats on this question.
This leaves the Republicans only two
majority on a party vote. Conkling
will vote against Kellogg; this would
make q tie. and In that event Wheeler is
morally certain, In view Of the known
desires Of Mr.. Hayes. to vote against
seating Kellogg. The weight of prob
ability is, however, that Christiancy,
Jones Of Nevada, and Edmunds would
refrain from voting on the question at
all, or II they did vote, to vote against
the seating of Kellogg. This would
bring the vete to about my figures
that is, that Kellogg cannot get more
than thirty votes at the outside on the
direct question Of seating him under the
resolutions to be proposed by Morton g
committee. BUELL..

WASHINGTON, March lathe Senate
Committee on Elections and Qualifica-

on Kellogg's credentials by a strict
party vote. The chairman of this COM
mittee, Morton, was instructed, in ac-
cordance with this report, to introduce
the following resolution. to be SUBJ
mitted to the Senate tomorrow:
Reseieed, That William Pitt Kellogg
is prlnaa facie entitled to be admitted
to his seat asa Senator from the State
OF Louisiana. and that the oath be now
administered to him."
4 see no reason to change the esti-
mate Of the probable action of the SEN
ate heretofore made in these dispatches.
kellogg himself is sanguine of inmedi-
ate admission, but careful canvass Of
the Senate gives him only thirty votes
at the outside.

IN. Y. Herald.1
ST. JOINS, N. f., March THE story
Of the wreck of the Washington can
only be surmised from the data fur
nished by the date Of her departure
from port and the finding Of the debris
and mutilated bodies on the coast.
Judging from these the loss of the ship
was due to causes which the most ex-
pert seamanship could not avert. On
the 18th Of January the George Wash
ington left Halifax for st. Johns with q
general cargo. She could scarcely have
been forty eight hours at sea when q
strong breeze commenced to blow from
the south and veered In a few hours to
the southwest, Whether this wind had
the effect Of diverting the ship from her
course is q question that will remain
forever In doubt, as none of her passen-
gers or crew survive to tell the story
All that is known OF her fate can be told
In few words.
On the 23d and oath Of January some
Of the inhabitants Of Gulch Cove, near
French Mistaken Point, discovered Oh
the bench some articles Of bedding and
the toilet marked in large red letters,
IS. s. George Washington, and about
the same time thirteen dead bodies were
drawn out Of gulch into which they
had been washed by the sea. Later on
several fragments Of human bodies
were picked up--legs, arms and heads
bearing unmistakable evidence Of hav-
ing been torn violently from the trunks.
The flesh on these disjesta naen,bra ap-
peared In some cases to be parboiled,
and over the faces OF some Of the re-
covered bodies hung large pieces Of
scalp, while the brain protruded from
every part Of the battered skulls. No
more Is known Of the awful catastrophe
that hurried the passengers and crew Of
the unfortunate steamer into eternity.

y
WASHINGTON, March 12.-The reported
resignation Of Simon Cameron from the
Senate is confirmed. The old man is
disguised with the present aspect Of
affairs, and his son. wants to try his
hand in the Senate FOR awhile; SO old
Simon resigns and orders his Legisla-
ture at Harrisburg to elect his son Don
b succeed him.
Blaine's friends are making strenuous
efforts to get him into favor at the White
House. If there is any virtue in dirt
eating Blaine will soon be Hayes chief
adviser.
The President seems to think, judg-
Ing from the remarks he made to-
day, that there is a disposition
shown to crowd him on the
Southern question. He did not
manifest any impatience, but said, very
decidedly, that he must be allowed time
for so important movement as that Of
withdrawing troops from Louisiana and
South Carolina, and that it was better
to be little slow but sure than to take
steps that might have to be retraced.
There is no foundation for the rumor
that the President intends to appoint
Judge Spofford, Of Louisiana, to sue
oeed Davis on the Supreme Bench. This
appointment will not be made for sew
eral weeks, and has not yet been even
considered by the President. BUELL..

with those in Louisiana. This he de-

that the proper way to settle the
matter was to fix some plan of ad-I
justment that would be satisfactory
to Chamberlain and the general COVER

he said, for Chamberlain, and didn't
want anything done by the Administra-
tion that would humiliate him. He had
been informed that Cham mberiain want

and these same gentlemen asked him to
