Governor. came up from New Orleans TO at
tend these meetings; and, finally, the lead
ers Of the colurcd men decided to 80 with
the Democrats aud the masses followed
them. 1t was Dying to the change thus pro-
duccd that i'm October, 1876 JAMES T.. AMBER
son, Supcrvsorof Registration, wrote ~ his
friend WEBER that. while he was expected
to get one thousand Republican majority
from The parish ~ East Fcliciana, there
would no, he one thousand Republican votes
east there, all told.
Under these circumstances. the Republic
cans having made up their minds that In
the ordinary course Of proceeding East
Fclciana would be lost to thom, determined
TO keep their men away from the polls in
order to afford u pretext for excluding the
vote OF the parish altogether. Accordingly.
they sent Instructions to their still faithful
adhercnts not TO vote and not to have TO-
publican tickets at the polls; and on tho
day OF the election, while the Republicans
stood around I'M the ncighborhood OF the
polling places, they held themselves aloOf,
although regular Republican tickets were
offered them, and they were urged to come
to the ballot boxes and vote. The
result was as shown 10y the Buffalo CONNER
ciai Advertiser. that but one Republican vote
was returned us east in the parish 1t was
this ingenious political trick OF the Repub-
leans which led TO the belief In other parts
Of the country that the Felicana negroes
had been buldozcd out Of their votes; and IL
is the result Of this trick which inspires the
doubt and prompts the question OF our es-
tcencd contemporary in Buffalo.
As we have said. the result IN West Fell
ciana was similar though some Rcpub-
leans voted there; but tho election
was perfectly orderly and peaceful in
both parishes. Yet the returns had to
bo reversed in order to count in the
HAYES electors. With all the fraudulent
changes made in the returns from
other parts OF the State, the con-
spiracy could not be carried through
II the real figures Of the election in the two
Felicianas were allowed t. stand. 1t was To
secure the required alterations In regard to
these two parishes that john SHERMAN
wrote to WEBER and ANDERSON the cclc-
brated letter which he effectively admitted
to be his on Saturday, the LIST inst. be-
fore the investigating committee; and II
was on account OF these frauds that
STANLEY MATTHEWS maintained for 50 long
n time his intimacy with JAMES L. AMBER
EvARrs desiring that ANDERSON should be
appointed to a good office because his was
"a special case"
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1878-06-14

our esteemed contemporary, the COmmcr-
ciai Advertiser OF Buffalo, rejecting upon
the last Louisiana election, cannot under
stand how the parish of East Feiclana
which in 1872 gave 1867 votes for GRANT, To
Gi7 for GREELEY, could give in 1876 l73G
votes to TILDEN TO only for HAYES.
rhe fact is that in East Feliciana and in
West Feliclana it is substantially the same
the great majority Of the population con-
sists Of colorcd people. For years these
parishes had given heavy Republican major
ties but the blacks had become dissatisfied
at the taxes which had been imposed, at
the depression in business, at, the fact
that the schools had not been kept opon, and
that strangers had been put In office over
them. In that year, therefore, the Democrats
made an earnest effort To conciliate this class
OF voters. Some Of their leading men were
first won over; number Of colored preachers
stumpcd the two parishes for the Democrats
barbecues and meetings were held, and
everything was done to convince the me-
groes that they might be sure of fair treat
ment from the Democratic party. Gen

aud modification adapting a community VI cracked
philosophers or turbulent Central Americans"
This is not very dlgnihed or appropriate
STYLE as It appears TO u.s. for the discussion
Of q great political question. With all due
respect for our contemporary. we think the
view taken OF the power OF Congress is
superficial and imperfect.
Each Congress-there are but two Con-
crosses In four years-during Presidential
term, on the discovery that the incumbent
OF the Office OF President has been placed in
Office by means OF fraudulent returns, has
power to declare that fact But such action
OF Congress would be simply declaration.
This proposition we do not think the editor
of the Nation will dispute
To give such declaration any practical po-
tency 1t would have TO assume the form Of
articles OF impeachment. which. on sufficient
ground, the House OF Representatives is
fully empowered by the Constitution to pre-
Ter.
II this is crack-brained philosophy, It is
nevertheless the philosophy Of tle Constitu-
tion Of the United States.
Now let the editor Of the Nation answer
Tho plain question whether he maintains. il
1t be clearly proven that Mr.. HAYES was
made President by fraudulent returns. and
that he HAYES was party to the making
OF the fraudulent returns, he ought to be
permitted to retain the Office Of President to
the end OF the term of four years?
There is no more reason for calling those
who would maintain the Constitution
cracked philosophers ana turbulent Central
Americans than there is for applying the
same terms 10 the men who made the Con-
stitution.

Anti-Tnmmany and Tammany.

SO far as a declaration Of principles goes
it appears 10 us that the Anti-Tammany
Democracy Of this city have greatly the ,ad
vantage over the Tammany Democracy.
The Tammany Democracy hold that n
thorough investigation should be made into
the frauds of the electoral returns, and that
all the parties guilty OF cheating should be
punished. So far so good. On the otber
hand. in striking inconsistency with its loud
dcnunciation OF frauds. Tammany contends
that Mr.. HAYES must not be disturbed in his
Office, - matter by what frauds he was put
there.
The Anti-Tammany Democrats are more
consistent. Their doctrine is that inasmuch
as fraud vitiates everything, 1t vitiatcs
HAYEs's ellie to the prooidoncy. Tho fol-
lowing are their resolutions In full:
