PACKARD AVID THE COMMIS-
SIONERS

WAsHrNGToN, 19.-The dispatches re
ceived here this afternoon seem to indl-
cate that the commission in New Orleans
will fail to effect any compromise, and
will leave for home Saturday. Packard
telegraphed to Governor Kellogg to-day
as follows:
Please inquire of the President if it is
by his direction that the eommissiufi'
recommends to- members of the Packard
Legislature to join the Nichols Legisla>
tnre. Two of our members left to day
under such persuasion.
Governor Kellogg did not communi-
cate this to the President on the ground
that the inquiry, however truthful, might
be deemed impertinent. Governor Kel-
logg fears that that the upshot of the
whole affair will be the withdrawal of the
troops by Monday, and thereby the virtui
al recognition of Nichols. He does not
anticipate any trouble and does not be~
lieve that under any probable circum-
stances there can be a fight. The Presi
dent is firm IN his purpose to withdraw
the troops. He said yesterday TO Gen.
White, member-elect from Pennsylva-
mia, that within a day or two there would
be but one Legislature in each of the
thirtytnire States, and that the one in
Louisiana would determine who was the
lawful Governor of that State.
George A. Sheridan, of Louisiana, to-
day received telegram from the Chair
man of the Democratic Legislature eau
Gus at New Orleans, saying: eve have a
Returning Board quorum in both houses.
General Sheridan thinks that this settles
the contest, EX Governor kellogg SAYS
that it does not, but that its determination
depends upon the action Packard Antoine
and the other Republican State officers
may hereafter take.

Peterson, who was bitten in several
places by rabid dog. The mode is to
make incisions over the scars that the
wounds left, and apply the stone, which
clings awhile and then drops off. Several
physicians are watching the test, and will
report the result for the information of
their profession. A man bitten by the same
