Iaent,

"New Orleans, Nov. IA, 1876
The undersigned. James c. An
derson, Supervisor of Registration
for the parish of East Feliciana,
and D. A. Weber, Supervisor for
the parish of West FeIiciana, Lou
isiana, have respectively refused to
sign any protest against the
counting of the vote of our parishes
cast at the election held on the 7th
day of November, 1876, for the rea-
son that the election on that day
was the most peaceable, orderly one
ever witnessed by either, and the
large gain made by the Democrats
being secured by legitimate means,
and owing in a great measure to
the disgust and hatred with which a
large proportion of the colored
people regard the present State
government, but the electoral vote
of Louisiana being necessary to Sc
cure the election of Hayes and
Wheeler, and in order to secure
such vote it being necessary to

Keys Programme.

A Nashville correspondent of the
New York Sun thinks Postmaster
General Key had something else in
view than the mere bolstenng up of
the administration, when he sent
out his manifesto. That the most
potent reason for this spasmodic
yell against those who are trying to
puncture the administratiO frauds,
seems to have escaped notice. His
purpose then was and now is to run
for Governor of Tennessee, and ex-
poets to command a solid republican
vote and the State credit democrats.
We would hot be surprised if the
correspondent is right in his con
lectures, but Mr.. Key will be disap-
pointed if he expects any great
democratic support on the strength
of his late letter.

The Experience ola Lucky NJ an

4he NoIiolh Ohy DCoh'
Mr.. Geo. r. Gornto, the lucky man of
Princess Anne county, Va, who drew
the $50, 900 prize in the Louisiana State
Lottery, was heavily in debt, with a
mortgage on his farm. and things going
behindhand with him generally. He
got hold of copy of the advertisement
of the Lottery. He determined to make
venture. He had but 50 10 in the
world. He wrote to NJ. 4. Dauphin, z.
o. Box 692, New Orleans, and enclosed
81 in the letter, and was just about to
send it off to the post office by a boy,
when negro hand of his called on him
and demanded his wages, which just
amounted to So. He offered the man
the SO he had left, but this was declined
by the darby, who threatened to leave
his work just at a critical time unless he
got the whole. He took the letter, and
the two dollars out of it, which, with
the SO, he handed TO the man.
Thus was he with but fifteen cents
cash in the world; and while in this mel
ancholly frame of mind, about an hour
afterward, a negro man drove up and
bought load of fodder, amounting to
81 80, not enough TO pay for the ticket,
but with ten cents in his pocket he made
up the amount, and wrote the letter
and enclosed 81. The next thing that
turned up from that 81 was the crafty
ing intelligence that his ticket had
drawn a prize of $4,000, more than
enough to alter his current of bad luck,
enable him to raise the mortgage, stock
his farm well and put him on his pins
again. Such is luck.

Anderson wrote to Weber before
the Louisiana election: II must re-
turn 1000 majority from this par
ish East Feliciana); If you were
to scrape the district with fine
tooth comb you could not find that
number of Republicans" This was
a confidential communication of a
Republican Supervisor of elections.
The testimony is reliable. John
Sherman deliberately and wickedly
plotted to secure an affidavit to the
effect that the parish referred to
was not carried fairly by the demo

Washington correspondence OF
the Cincinnati Commercial: 1t is
the general opinion in Washington
that the worst hurt man so far is
Stanley Matthews. This opinion
is shared by both parties. Mr.. Mat
thews feels very despondent and
while he is confident that he can
clear his skirts of much that his
enemies will seek to lodge against
him, yet the fact remains that his
letters are genuine and difficult to
explain. 1t is said that he curses
the day he ever had anything to do
with the affair, and well he may, for
whatever his intentions were, he
has helped himself into a scrape
without helping anybody out. s

Washington special to the Gin

the vote of louisiana was fraudu-
lently returned for Hayes.

Bah! Senator Matthews was court.

The subcommittee investigating
the Florida election is bringing out
the groundwork of the Radical
steal in that State in a very pro-
nounced manner. The cool throw
ing out of two Baker county pre-
cincts by the Republican canvassers
did the business. McLin tells how
Billy Chandler and the other "visit-
ing statesmen" kept the robbery in
full blaze by pledges in behalf of
the Republican party of ample re
wards if the black crime was accom-
plished, although the Florida
steal is not quite as cold blooded
an affair as that of Louisiana.-C.J.

A Tub to the Whale.

Special to the Cincinnati Commercial
Some of the Senators are asking
themselves if there IS not q purpose
on the part of certain Republicans,
led by Butler and supported by
Blaine and the administration
lists, to sacrifice Matthews as a sort
of tub to the whale. The appear
ance of Ferry before the committee
is regarded as significant and part
of the general purpose to place Sen
ator Matthews in a very embarras
sing position. Ferry is a Senator,
and could have claimed the Senate
rial privilege. Blaine says public
ly and privately that there is no
Senatorial privilege that can resist
subpoena from Potter's Commit
tee. 1t is argued that when the
matter comes, to test the Senate, by
reason Of the number of anti-admin-
istration Republicans in it, will
give up Senator Matthews, taking
advantage of the peculiar situation
to cause the administration as
much modification as possible. 1t
is believed that Matthews is nearer
to Hayes than any other Senator
and whatever embarrassment can be
brought against them jointly will
be kindly relished by the investiga-
ting Democrats on one side and the
disgruntled Republicans on the
other.
Courier-J ournal: The proceed
ings before the Potter investigating
Committee last week developed not
only the fact that a bargain was
made by the Republican leaders
with certain Louisiana Republican
officers of election to suppress the
evidence that the Democrats had
fairly carried the election in East
Feliciana parish, but that the Elec-
torial Commission gave the vote of
Louisiana to Hayes on the basis of
one of the forged returns of the
proceedings of the Republican cleo
tors in that State. The first certifi-
cate of a fraudulent election was
found upon the arrival of the mes
senger in Washington to be irregu-
lar and without legal value. That
ended the existence of the Louisi-
ana electors as a body, but they
met again, contrary to law, and
rushed up a new certificate, and
Levissee, one of the electors, being
absent, the scoundrels forged his
name to the certificate and sent it
on to Washington, in duplicate. 1t
was upon certificate number one,
which was void bl illegality, and
number three, which was clumsy
forgery" according to Levissee,
the Republican elector who testified
last week, that Justice Miller for
mally announced the decision
of the Commission. 1t appears
from the facts developed that the
first sealed package had been
opened and inspected when the
messenger brought 1t from Louisi-
ana. This was unlawf full and in vIo-
lation of article twelve of the Con
stitution. There is a train of fraud,
forgery and purjury, therefore, from
Louisiana to Aliunde Joe's commits
sion. Kellogg's negro secretary,
Deslaindes, attested the genuine
ness OF the forged certificates, so
that the Republican scheme. of
fraud, forgery, perjury and general
illegallity to secure the vote of Lou
isiana for Hayes, sat all hazards"
is in rapid process of advertisement.
