Board quaItette. OF all the candidates,
however, King would be the most ac-
ceptable, even though a protege of An.
dersOn and Wells, because he possesses
the least brains, and could commit
small harm as political manager,
BY way of diversion l will now re-.
late the circumstances of some tragedies
which took place in this city within the
week, one resulting in the death of a
maniac under circumstances not quite
eXplcable, but extraordinary withal.
Saturday night last fire was discovered
in a one.stoty frame house on the
" American" side Of the city. An
alarm was turned in and the police
and firemen rushed with their usual
impetuosity to the scene. 1t was the
house of one Louis Jauster, German,
known under the expressive title of
Crazy Joe." Arriving at the place,
they found Jausteur standing at the
front door, armed with carbine and
broad sword. He warned all off, ex"
claimed there was no fire in the house,
and threatened to hack and riddle any
man who might have the hardidood to
then made to capture the maniac incen-
diary, Che had set fire to the house him
self, } and in the effort one policemen
was fatally shot and two others danger
ously cut about the head with the sabre.
A volley of shots was then poured in,
and Crazy Joe, a moment afterwards,
was picked up dead.
On Wednesday night last coored
man, named Thomas Lockwood, was
shot and killed by man and brother
named Bibb. Both had been rivals for
the affections Of colored maiden Of
the copper color stamp, but Lockwood
seemed to have gained the upper hand.
| say it with regret, that he did not ac.
complish his victory by anything like
fair means, but still In manner char
acteristic of the way by which female
affections are sometimes won. He pre-
sented the lady ofhis love with shawl,
which set the impecunious Bibb hors du
combat. His triumph led him into the
indiscreton of noising abroad his gen.
erosity to his dulcinea, and 1t was while
In church, on Wednesday night, that
the defeated but magnanim0us Bibb
reprOached with his meanness In telling
the story of the shawl. Both then ad-
journed into the street, where the quar-
rel waxed warm, and finally terminated
in both drawing weapons. Bibb fired
aud shot his man through the heart, and
the police afterwards found the latter
stone dead OIL his knees, with his right
hand grasping a knife.
Contrary to expectation, trade, at this
point, is yet depl essingly dull. This
time year ago we averaged about
thirty thousand bales of cotton day in
the shape of receipts, now the average
is six thousand. Of course, this is ow.
ing to a back wardness Of the crop, and
in some instances the low stage Of
water in Red river. The sugar crop
will be of unusual yield this year, and
they are now commencing to grind on
the plantations, The weather is now
very genial and favorable to the sugar
planters. w.

Our New Orleans Letter.
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 2. 1877

New ORLEANS, Nov. 2, 1877.
OF course the general attention of the
country is now directed COngressward,
but to no people are events now tIans-
pirng, and which may transpre in
Washington within the next week or so,
of such surprising interest as to the
people of LOui-iana. We have long
been without representation in the Sem
ate Senator after Senator has been
elected by Legislature after Legislature,
till, what with rival governments and
rival paTllanents, almost every local
statesman possesses a high standing
titular prefix, indicating that he once
was, or might have been, or tried to he,
or was cheated out of the dignity which
his title indicates. In 1873 We had Nc
Millen, of Ohio, (now Pension agent
for this district, Pinchback and War
mouth. Later we had Eustis, and now
We have SpofOrd and Kellogg, Eustis
and Pinchback, aud naval officer Lewis.
The latter has not yet quite given up
the struggle, having found his early
experiences of the contest profitable and
fame-spreading. These various cOntes.
tatiOns were the offspring of the dual
governments of 1878 and 1917, and the
famous compromise of Vice President
Wheeler, of 1915, under which Eustis
claims election. 1t is rot improbable
that all the candidates may be thrown
out after all, and the question of the
two Senatorships Temanded to the next
nreting of the Legislature Should
this be the result, the Governor is likes
ly to appoint Spofford and Eustis to the
vacancies, though it is aot quite so cer-
tain that the same two would be re cleo
ted by the Legislature.
The present session is fraught with
additional interest, in the matter OF APP
pGintments and con6l nations to Fede-
raj Offices, as the personnel must reflect
the character OF the new political party
to be forned in this State. The old
Republican party is without leadership
or organization. But the voting rank
and file remain, and with an adroit
/ head, to form the nucleus of new es-
tablishment, an organization perhaps
more formidable than the old RGpubll-
can one can be built up. 1t is not
thought that Kings name will be con-
frmrd for the COllectOrship Of the port,
which may be taken as an evidence OF
the waning strength Of the Returning

GENERAL ORpER MANCHESTER, W.,
No. 2. June 20, 1877.
The following plan for organization for
the coming reunion Is thought to be the
most feasible and eillesclous in securing a
thorough canvas and enlistment Of the
soldiers, aud to logn the most perfect
and systematic organization for The en-
campment.
1t will therefore be substantially OBJ
served
1. Company organizations will be
formed throughout the state, each com
pany TO DO organized by the election OF n
Captain, two LIeutenauts, First Sergeant
aud Qnauermaster Sergeant.
2. A battalion will be formed In each
county, aud battalion commander app
pointed who will be In command of the
same throughout The eneampment.
3. The state viii be formed into four
brigades aud brigade commander APP
pointed TO command the battalions AS
signed TO him.
1. rhe whole army when met, to form
one grand division.
As soon AS % meu have enlisted in any
town, or two or more adjoining towns,
or when the battalion commanders di.
rect, they will organize by the election OF
the officers named.
Commanding officers, Except those 10
be clected), will be announced IN future
orders.
/ County battalion commanders will have
entire charge OF their county, and The
whole matter OF organization Is left TO
their judgment.
They are requested, however, TO APP
polut an active, energetic soldier Ia each
town Ms recruiting officer, as IL Is desir'
ed 10 have an Invitation extended TO
every veteran soldier the state, whether
connected with Vermont or other state
organizations.
Enlistnenls should be completed by
the Isl OF August; therefore county com-
manders should proceed at once TO APP
point recruiting Ulcers. and TO the or
ganzition Of companies.
a report or the whole number ct men
enlisted up 10 date should be forwarded
by The 20Ih Of July.
/ Ii is much desired that all who attend
should bs present Ia connection with the
organization from their town This il
doubly important at this time, as the re-
union forms part OF the Vermont Cen
tennial Celebration" IN which many
thousands besides tho soldiers are TO par
ticipaie.
Further Information with reference to
transportation, camp eqnipage, snbsist,
euce, etc. will be given as soon as pos.
