LEGISLATIVE PLEDGES.

A debate in the Legislature took
place a few days ago, on the intro
duction ola Resolution by Warmoth,
which elected the following debate
on nice point, and we think its
publication will make it plain to our
readers, vindicating at the same time
our party:
The following resolution, intro
duced on Wednesday by Governor
Warmoth, was called up and its pas
sage moved by him:
Resolved Ivy the House of Representa-
tives of the State of .Louisiana. That the
Committee on the Judiciary be directed
to report without delay whether or not
the prosecution of the officers of the late
Returning Board is not in violation of the
pledge of the government, made on the
twentieth day of April, 1877, in words as
| follows: , ..,
Fifth DESTROYS of ending the dissen-
sions that have disturbed the State tor
| y
of all political parties may be free from
the feverish anxieties of political strife
and join hands in honestly restoring the
prosperity of Louisiana, the Nichols gov

tempted persecution, from any quartet
of individuals for past political Conduct
That the Governor, he requested to, for
ward copy of these resolutions to tue
President of the United States.
Sec. 2. That the Committee shall have
power to send for persons and papers ani
examine witnesses for the purpose o
this report.
!: In moving the resolutions, Gov
ernor Warmoth said he had but little
to say. The resolutions explained
themselves. He moved their passage
Mr.. Jonas opposed the passage o
the resolutions. As be understood
it, this was matter that the Judici
airy had so e control of, and any sucl
action as was proposed would be
most unwarranted interference Of
the part of the General Assembly
Certain parties had violated til
criminal laws of the State; had bee
: arrested and were held for trial fo
their ofense. One of these partie
had been fairly tried by jury of hi
peers, and found guilty of felony
and now it was claimed, since til
ordinary remedies at law had faiIe
to afford him relief, that his prosecu
tion and conviction was in violatio
of an agreement between the govern
ment of Louisiana and that Of th
, United States. He denied that an
. such agreement had ever been mad
5 on the part of the Nichols govern
ment, and be claimed to know where
+ of he spoke. But had any one q:
: sumed to enter into any such bal
gain, either on behalf of the Unite
States or the State, no matter ho
high the contracting parties, he 1T
pudiated their authority to bind th
people of this State, who were alon
j., concerned. The resolution of th
: last session, referred to in the rest
lutions, were passed by the Gener'
, Assembly in spirit Of kindlines
9 and to assuage great and bite
popular feeling; but in passing thel

The Probable Pope.

The question OF the successor OF
of Plus TX is just now one of most
earnest and absorbing anxiety to the
christian world. From the New Or
leans Times we clip the following
sketch of five Of the most prominent
Cardinals, whose names are mention
ed in this connections:
Louis Bilio, as the favorite Of Plus
deserves first mention. He was born
i'm 1925, created Cardinal in 1866,
and is one of the youngest of his
rank, being scarcely fifty-two. Heis
now Bishop of Sabina and the grand
Penitentiary. Plus TX created him
Cardinal suddenly and secretly, as
reward for distinguished services
rendered the Church-the service
being, it is generally supposed, his
action in Council as President Of the
Commission of the Dogma. Indeed
he is credited with the famous defini-
ton Of infallibility. Cardinal Bilio
is classed among the Saints. He is
IA man of imposing appearance, with
magnificent head and classic feat
ures. He lives in the Convent of the
Barnabites. His associates regard
him as the special representative Of
the late Pope's extreme and absolute
1ideas, and believe that he would per-
petuate them more thoroughly than
any one who could possibly be
Ichosen. s.
Joachim Pecci is Of quite another
mould. He is the opposite Of Bilio,
and typi6es the moderate and liberal
sentiment among the clergy. It ie
noticeable that, on being questioned
as to where he would fix his court in
lease of being elected, he did not say
rather took pains to avoid saying
that he would cling to the Vatican
He is an older man than Bilio, hay
ling been born in 1910 and made Car
dinal in 1853. His intellect is O
the highest order, and people believ,
that he has theory Of his own as x
}, the solution of the Church's tempo
! raj difficulties. His presence is very
: attractive. He is tall and thin, will
striking, aristocratic face. He i

berlain to the Pope.
Raphael Manacco La Valetta wa
born at Aquila in 1927 and became
! Cardinal in 1868. He is Titula
> Abbott of Subiaco and Vicar Gene
aal Of His Holiness. Opinion in til
Church regards him as the leadin
candidate. He is of q very gay an

Looking at me;
Upin the morning

Getting her breakfast,
Working away;
Stops by The window,
Shaking her head,
Calling me lazy,
Lying in bed. &.

Ever could be;
Sings of the morning,
Sings of the air,
Sings of the sunshine

Very fine dandy,

Yelling and pining:

Babies so hungry,
Babies so bad,
Mouths so wide open,
All very sad;

Scold me no longer,
Lying in bed.

Would were thee,
Nevermore worried,
Up in a tree!
But, o, brown babies,
You must be fed

peal from the district court, the former
would not look at the evidence, unless 1t
were legally shown that the record contain
ed all the evidence. This court, in this in.
stance, must follow that rule.
These considerations alone eRectually
dispose of the five foregoing statements or
assignments of error. If the defendant wa
dissatisfied with the judgment Of the facts,
or merits, of the dispute, his remedy was
plain. He chose not to appeal from the
decision on these, but on matters of law
purely; and to the latter he must adhere.
The Justices Code does not provide for
new trials. nor from appeals frem orders re.
lating thereto. Two remedies only are pre-.
scribed, to.wit: appeals as to law alone and
secondly, appeals as 10 fact. or both law and
fact. And as to each kind, the mode of
trial is clearly pointed out. This proceeding
seems to be an honest, but mistaken, attempt
to get this court, on appealin law, to decide
tho merits Of the controversy.
The pith of the above five assignments.
II they, as they stand, amount to anything,
is not q specification of error of law, but Of
the ipsuflciency Of the evidence to sustain
the judgment. The latter objection cannot,
1t would seem, be presented. by means Of .
statement on appeal on mere questions of
Law. See The City Of Stockton '. Creanos,
As Cal. PAT; People '. Freelon. 8 Id. 518;

evidence, nor its efficiency, or weight, on
this appeal from the judgment grounded on
questions OF law. Sec Rycraft Y. Rycraft,
