THE PRESIDENT ON LOUIS
lana AFFAIRS.


tfftAt 80
protracted interview with President
Hayes last night, he received an as.
surance that the Administration had
never contemplated interference by
the United States Courts or otherwise
with the actions of the courts or the
State Government of Louisiana, and
that, while the President regretted the
prosecution of Anderson aud Wells,
it would not alter his course towards
the State, or people of Louisiana. 1t
was a matter which involved their
honor, and he trusted their honor. Eel.
lis also stated that he fully informed
the President of the condition of affairs
in Louisiana, and corrected what he
(Ellls) considered eros and misstate-
ments Of Secretary Sherman and others
in regard TO the Returning Board
trials.
The discussion of Louisiana matters
in their relation to National politics
was unexpectedly revived in the
House to-day, and towards Its conclu-
sion was made extremely interesting
by a brilliantly vigorous speech by
Garfield. 1t was entirely impromptu,
one of its effective portions being based
upon Madison Wells Geographic let
ter which had just been printed in a
New York newspaper, and which he
made the text for IA scathing denunci-
alton of the political prosecutions in
Louisiana that so remarkably illus
trate the So called era of reconciliation,
harmony and good feeling.
