A rather ridiculous incident showing how

Mr.. Gladstone--by the London Times, for d
direct insult to her Majesty. II not to orthog-

concerning this country, very complimentary
and flattering to 1t, wrote the word President

to American vanity. An investigation, how
ever, cleared Mr.. Gladstone Of this foul sus-
picion. His copy was found correct, and II
was shown that an American printer had
taken the liberty Of reducing queen" to q

further promised to mind his Fps" and "qs''

Liberia Is not an arcadia, II the late reports

Liberia Is not an arcadia II the late reports
are to be believed. The American emigrants
who have been enticed there by the glowing
promises Of the emigration society have not
realized on them to any apprcciable extent.
and are greatly dissatisfied. This ls not all !;
they urge their friends and relatives to remain
at home, and express great desire to return
themselves. The general sentiment Is ex-
pressed by one Rufus Clark, who gives rather
q sober view Of life In Liberia: Il cannot make
a living here, for there is nothing going on for
a living In this country but lying. cheating
and stealing. thought" he writes. that l

man can live In this country. II you will aid
and assist me TO get away from this country
I would be willing to bind myself and family
to work for you on your place, or In any way
you want me. until you are satisfied Of your
money" Such letters as this are not calcu-
lated to cause the Liberian movement to
gather much impetus.

Mr.. p. j. Trezevant, the retiring Clerk OF
the House, has been one Of the int,st efficient
officers Of the Legislature. He was elected
TO that position In the historical Legislature
sof 1876, which was broken up by the Federal
troops. He was again elected Clerk In 1877
and served through both Legislatures with
great efficiency and to the satisfaction Of the
members Of both parties. A courteous gentle-
man and an affable and efficient official, he
retires from the arduous position he has 60
well filed with the respect and esteem Of all
the members who served with him and Of
the press OF New Orleans, TO whom he ex-
tended all courtesles.

Butler is busily engaged just now in secur1
Ing evidence OF intimidation at the latd
election in Massachusetts, and will have coll
slected by the time the Teller committee has
returned to Washington and begun the inves1
tigation OF the Massachusetts election most
formidable array OF facts and affidavitd
bearing on this subject. The principal species
of intimidation in Massachusetts was the
threat of certain manufacturers, merchants.
farmers and others, employing number Of
persons, to discharge all those employees
voting the Butler ticket. These threats were
undoubtedly largely used by the Republicans.
The leading Republican manufacturers, the
national banks, even the clergymen, received
circulars from the Republican Central Com
mittee, suggesting that they should use their
influence to persuade their employees to vote
the Republican ticket, and limiting that il
persuasion would not suffice, threats might
The result was an extraordinary pressure on
the laboring classes, large majority oil
whom favored Butler for Governor.
The horse car companies of Boston were
particularly fierce In their threats: they as
sembled all their employees at their offices,
distributed Republican tickets among them
and even placed spoilers" at the polls to see
that the men voted the tickets they were
given. The shoe manufacturers were equally
aggressive, and marched their men to the
poles in a body to vote the Republican ticket
Another trick Of the Radicals In Boston tc
help their cause was to issue 1900 warrants
for the arrest OF Butler men on the morning
If the election. Few OF these men were
arrested, but the trick succeeded neyerthe-
less, as the men whose liberty was thus
threatened became frightened and were afraid
TO go to the polls.
Butler has thousands of affidavits to prove
these facts. Among these he has secured, for
the benefit OF his New England Republican
brethren, a number OF affidavits from negroes
who were discharged from their positions for
voting for Butler. The Teller committee will
therefore have an opportunity to pass upon
the subject Of negro intimidation in New
England.
