stated that the protests of Packard and Kel-
logg, upon which large number of votes
were thrown out by the returning board
could not be found.
Cross-axamined by Mr.. Reed-WItnes'
only knew from heresay that there had been
protests by Packard and Kellogg. Many OF
the protests produced by the secretary of state
purport to be copies of the originals. Com.
missioner Woohey has been summoned, and
will appear to morrow, the object of the C I'M
nlittee being to trace up the original papers.
Judge w. l.. Lyon,
of East Feliciana, testified regarding
his efforts to secure the return of An
derson in October, 1875, to complete
the registration In the parish; had
several interviews with Kellogg, who
promised to send Anderson back; with An
derson. who promised to return complete
registration; Anderson returned to the par
ish three or four days before the election, but
not in time to complete the registration, conse
quently there were some four hundred con-
sentative voters in the parish who had not
registered; talked with Anderson after he
returned; he told witness he only got away
from New Orleans by aid of Colonel Patton !;
he took boat at Carrollton; jerks had been
shadowiag him to prevent his leaving.
Cross examined by Mr.. Reed-Witness
said he would not believe any statement made
by Anderson unless it was corroborated.
Charles M'veixh,
of East Feliciaua, testified that after Judge
Lyons returned to the parish, and the failure
of Anderson to return as he promised. he
came to New Orleans to see Governor Kel-
logg; related several interviews with the gov
ernor and with Anderson, without other re-
suits than promises that Anderson would re-
turn and complete the registration.
Cross examination by Mr.. Reed-In 1874
the vote of the parish was twenty-five hun
dred, and the Republican majority eight hum
dred. Anderson complained that he got no
pay, and seemed anxious to trade; he wanted
Nash's name put on the ticket for congress.
w. HI. Seymour
was recalled by Mr.. Reed, and testified that
he first knew jerks in 1856; it was casual
acquaintance; when he and Anderson came
to my Office to attest an agreement, Anderson
introduced me to jerks; had not seen him
pr four or five years; did not then refer to
having met him before; afterward met jerks
in Washington and renewed the old acquain-
lance; am certain he is the man who signed
the statement with Anderson; witness was
certain the paper shown him in Washington,
and known as the Anderson. Nash agreement,
was the one to which he affixed his jurat,
and that it was double sheet originally.

Gen. Skobeleff is the idol of his sold
iers. One afternoon in November his
troops were massed near their encamp-
ment, with arms in hands, and with
spades to intrench the ground they were
about to take; stretcher-bearers in q
group at the rear, a suggestive, but IN
pleasant sight; battery of mitraIileuses
bundled up like so many human beings,
to keep out the damp, and, in front Of
the troops, the little body of picked
men, each with his shovel, his rations,
and plenty of ammunition, who were
to make the first rush across, use the
bayonet, and then throw it aside for the
spade, and endeavor to cover in time to
resist the attack of the returning Turks.
Gen. Skobeleff dismounted, and told
the men just what he expected Of them
that they were not to storm the works
of Plevna, but only to run forward and
take the piece of ground they knew
perfectly well, in front OF the road, and
TO hold it until they had works thrown
up. He cautioned them, as many wert
yonng soldiers sent out from the re-
serves to ill the gTeat gaps in the ranks,
not to advance too far, but 70 mind
exactly what the officers told them
He would be with them himself, anc
would direct the movements personal
iy. As the men passed they all received
encouraging words, and they went b.
smiling at the good-natured chat frOu
the general, who called to them b,
name, remarked on their new boots
which, be said, were like those Of [
Spanish do1, and told the musician
they would play waltz in the new re
doubts on the morrow.

AnIInne Errorn.

In this enlightened age and land,
find acceptance only with the preju-
diced and ignorant. 1t is impossible.
for instance, to persuade any large pro-
portion of people who have imbibed
their ideas of logic in common schools
and free academies, that it is expedient
to cram their systems with mercury,
rasp their bowels with colycInth and
jalap, or stupefy their brains with
opiates, when pure, effective, safe,
botanic cordial like Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which relieves every disorder
for which the poisonous drugs have
been heretofore prescribed, is within
the reach OF every one. Old fashion,
ed remedies are rapidly giving ground
before the advance of this coDquering
specific, and old fashioned ideas in re-
gard to depletion as a means Of cure
have been quite exploded by the sue
cess of the great renoVant, which tones
the system, trapquiizes the nerves, in
duces sound repose, neutralizes malaria,
depurates and enriches the blood,
rouses the liver when dormant, and
promotes a regular habit of body.
