4 Retrospect.

Myers in Jail, brings to mind many
unpleasant recol|ections.
Let's see. In 1874 it was, that the
people of this parish, oppressed oy
the ring of which Myers was strong
part; plundered of property and IN
suited in manhood till forbearance
longer was cowardice, rose in their
majestic sovereignty and expelled
from power the robbers. Myers, true
r. his instincts that of a sneak thief
fled, with David Boullt, before the
storm had burst.
What then was the result OF this
begira Did he flee to stayY Not
at all! But to return, which he did
in a short while, with band of SOL
diers at his heels, and then the ar
rests of innocent citizens began. The
incarceration of men who were gull
ty of no crime, unless the defence
of liberty and property DO crime,
was inaugnratrd.
Myers now says, so we understand
that we, of Natchitoches, are perse-
cuting him. Let the wretch remem-
her when he prosecuted us-when he
iusultea women and children, and
frightened them in their quiet homes
with his rude soldiery.
Persecnte him! Why, we conld
see him crowned with all the ills 81
man without one stroke Of pity.
What mercy has mankind for the
besotted scoundrel who by his efforts
tended to relegate them to the mercy
Of brutal negroes, and their offspring
to the ignorance of savages'
| Let him shrek on. lie now drinks
the dregs of cup he would We ha(
quaffed.
Mercy for him! We have none
nor respect for those crawling, pulling
things that call themselves men, win
know all this felon's crimes, and the'
condone them-wlo would hold so
cial intercourse with villain, besid
whom a murderer is as the stainless
angel.

Annual Election OF Ohio and Mississippi
Railroad Officers.

CIxCtSxNTI, October l0.-The annual
meeting for the election OF directors OF the
Ohio & Miss. K. R. took place here to-day.
W. 7. McClintock and c. A. Beecher,
were reelected, and r. L. Cutting, of New
York, was elected, Vice, Ashley. 1t was
developed that a majority OF New York
stock holders would act in accord with the
Baltimore party and representatives Of the
Gait faction. After thorough review Of
the situation, coupled with the investiga-
ton Of affairs OF the company, they con-
cluded TO support the above ticket. Tie
general opinion seemed TO be that the
plan for the reorganization ofthe company
should be formulated as speedily as posi-
bic, and Committee consisting Of VIM.
Wainwright Chairman, Adian Isolin,
IT,, Robert Cutting and Henry N. Day, Of
New York, and ". W. Scarborough, Of
Cincinnati, were appointed for that pur.
pose and directed TO report TO the Board
az soon as practicable.
Great opposition was developed TO the
Springfield division, which, ever since its
acquisition, has entailed heavy burden
upon the o. 4 n. Co. There seemed to
be general disposition TO unite upon any
plan for a settlement OF the question
which would not overweight the company.
The opinion Is confidently expressed by
parties interested that some plan would
be arranged which would meet the views
OF all parties, and tedious and costly liti.
CATION be avoided and the road restored TO
the stockholders within brief period, re.
| lieved OF all its difficulties.

SALT LAKE, UTAH, October 1O.-In the
fall OF 1857, at the time Johnson's com.
mand was approaching Salt Lake, six men,
called the Aiken party, arrived in Utah
from California, on their way East They
were well supplied with animals and
money. They were arrested near Ogden
as spies. Four Of them were released by
the Mormon authorities and put under
escort OF Porter Rockwell, John Lot, John
Murdock and Sylvanus Collett TO be es-
corted out OF the territory. They
were taken south as far as the
Sewer river, where two OF them
were murdered and all Of their animals
taken. Two Of the party who were only
wounded returned to Nephi on foot. After
several days they were started north in
light wagon, but not far distant the two
men were shot Their bodies
were thrown into spring, from which
they were afterwardsfshed out One Of the
party, Sylvanus Collette, is now
on trial for the murder. So far rs stated
the evidence is conclusive, but there is no
positive evidence yet that the murder was
by Collette. The trial is still
progressing.

candidate, has $50 majority, with one
county (Adairl to hear from, which will
reduce his majority to 600.

The Congressional race is still in doubt,
