Danford, and OF counsel, Shellabarger and
Sypher, together with large number of the
guests of the hotel of both sexes, and the
representatives of the press.
Representative DanfOrd
was the first witness call ID at the instance of
Representative Hiscock, who conducted the
direct examination. Representative Danford
testified that he was member of the Merri-
mon committee that visited New Orleans
and there met James E. Anderson, whom he
had first known as the Washington corre-
spondeDt of newspapers in his district; he
had a full conversation with Anderson about
East Feliciana; II was voluntary on the part
of Anderson, who spoke generally of the
condition OF the parish, and of its being the
worst bulldozed parish of the State, and said
that while travelling from some point to the
parish seat, on dark night, he was fred at,
ais clothes being shot through, aud that he
escaped by reason of the darkness; after
leaving the parish seat he went to New Or
leans; he said that some army officer doubt
I'd the truth OF the story about the attack !;
ne also spoke of having made protest, on
which the vote of East Feliciana was thrown
out; he spoke of having put in
ration he came to New Orleans and informed
the Republican committee, including Gov
rrnor Kellogg, that his parish was going
Democratic, the colored vote being largely on
hat side, and that he had been advised by
Kellogg and the Republican committee that
ne should either not return 10 the parish at
all, or come away and make such d protest as
would throw the parish out; he said that he
mad put the story IN circulation in the hope
hat the Democratic committee would make
nIm an offer of money, and when by the offer
of money he had them good and fast, he
would expose the authors and blow them sky
nigh; witness did not hear Anderson question
the truth Of the protest.
Chairman Potter asked witness wheth-
er he did not wonder how Anderson,
whom ne had known as a newspaper
correspondent, could so soon become a
supervisor of election in Louisiana, to
which witness replied, that he had known
Anderson as a correspondent also of a New
Orleans paper, and did not know but that he
was a citizen of louisiana; witness thought
that Anderson said that the vote of the parish
was thrown out on his protest.
The committee then adjourned till to-mor
row morning, when Representative Kelly will
be examined with reference to the Moore
house parish deposition.
Hon. Eugene Hale arrived this evening to
appear before the Potter committee.

Personal Squabbles.

Washing dirty linen concerns only the
owner and the cleanser. No one else cares
about II. Then why the prominence
given to the KELLEy-GARFIELD-SH
controversy? 1t does not SAVIOR of the po-
litical-simply personal The Republican
party cares naught about the personal griev-
ances of any Of its members. Its aim is far
above those matters and it would be well
for all 50 to understand.
These private feuds may injure the indi-
vidual, but not the party; and when men,
bers of the Republican party mutually eI-
pose their own failings they do so at their
own loss, not that Of the great and glorious
organization whose principles will survive
all chickering's and contentious Of friends,
and whose bright and progressive history Of
the past seventeen years is the hopeful aug-
ury Of the future.

which will add nothing to his laurels as the
