The great hope Of the Potter resolution.
isis was in the testimony Of Judge Lcvissee,
a Louisiana %elector, by which they expect
ed to prove that his name was forged to the
return from Louisiana. There were three
sets Of returns from that state. One was
sent by mail, another by special messenger
according to law. After they had been de
posted in Senator Ferry's hands, some
timid and reckless ones feared that a mis-
take had been made in the form of drawing
up the returns, so they proposed others,
and the signature Of the electors were at.
tached to them. Judge Levissee was absent.
and his signature could not be obtained, so
it was forged by some person unknown, and
Of this the democrats were informed. When
the vote was opened ard counted the return
signed by Judge Levissee was opened and
counted, the forged documents being thrown
aside, though they were similar in all re.
peals to the forged returns. Judge Lewis.
see testified correctly in the matter and all
the Potterites made out of his evidence was
that Tilden's emmisaries offered him a big
price for his vote.

The Senate and Gen. Shields.

Gallant Gen. Shields has the misfortune
to be poor. All who are familiar with his
lite and achievements admit his uudoubted
courage 90 the field of battle, his high
soldlerly qualities as Commander, and
his marked abilities as a civilian. The
General is past the meridian of life and on
the waning side. In his adversely and
need he made application for relief by
being placed on the army retired list with
the rank and pay of General. At this
Juncture came the election of Doorkeeper
to the House, and for the purpose of en-
barrasslug the democrats Ben Butler noun
mated Gen. Shields for the position. As the
democrats had already agreed upon another
person OF course Gen. Shields was not
elected. The expectation Of the republi-
cans was that the Generals Irish country
men would feel his rejection as a personal
ailront' All their professions of regard
had that extent and nothing more. The
democrats pursuant to previous arrange
ment passed bill in the House placing
Zen Shields on the retired list with nav at
SIOO per month and the bill went to the
Senate. 1t is still pending. The pro-
ceedlngs in the Senate show distinctly the
anlmus OF the republicans and ought to
convince even the most unbelievipg how
entirely thel: action is regulated by party
spirit aud how utterly hollow and
empty were all their pretended efforts
and friendship in the doorkeeper
matter. AS Senator Edmunds sarcas
tlcaly remarked the placing of Shields
upon the retired list was done TO rectify q
party mistake. That is, his remark meant
that the democrats made q mistake in no,
electing him doorkeepsr, and the republ;-
cans we're making capital out of il; tn,
democrats were now seeking to rectiry tn,
mistake by giving him an increase of pen
sion, aud the republicans could max
further capital by opposing the increase
because 1t would leave the general sti
uncared for aud his friends soured an
