EFFECT OF JUDGE WOODS DECISION ON THE
COMING TRLALs--REPUBLIcANs NOT ANTIcI-
PATIS0 ANY CONVICTIONS.
By TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.]
New ORLEANS. Dec. 13. 1878.
The democrats here severely exercised over the
recent decision of Judge Woods under which
they contend only republicans can serve ~
jurors Nevertheless. the republicans here say they
believe that the conviction of parties who may have
been guilty either OF fraud or violence during the
late election will be matter very nearly impossible
no matter what the evidence may be. owing to fear
the part of the Jurors. There might
be some plausibity in this story these
jurors to he drawn from the country
districts where open violence is sometimes known to
exist but as they will be taken from the CITY, where
is interfered with account OF any peculiar
tiles of political opinions. such explanation looks
absurd; indeed. 1t seems rather to weaken than
strengthen their cause.
Grand Jury will be empaneled on Monday,
when Judge Billings, of the United States Circuit
Court, will deliver his charge.
