D-The closing act Of the ne
gro exodus is portrayed in the fol.
lowing dispatch from st. Louis ::
Forty eight negroes left for the
South this afternoon on the James
Howard. They hail from Kansas,
having gone there several weeks
ago. They looked wretched and
miserable, and declared with one
voice that they had never made a
greater mistake than their journey
northward. They say tina: it is i'm,
possible for the negro to do o:hcr-
wise than starve in Kansas, and
that at the South, at any rate, they
at all times have plenty to eat -
Although they were offered trans
portation to any bart Of the valley
free, they preferred going direct to
their old homes.

WEEKLY NEWS FROM THE CAPITAL,

Our New Orleans exchanges, during
| the past week, have contained an unusu-
al amount of intelligence from Washing
ton and other points, hishly intercstin g
| to the South and to Louisiana particu-
larry.
The Kellogggg-Spofford case, the conclu-
sion of which is anxiously watched for,
progresses slowly, but every inch of
ground contested has been gained by the
Democrats, which makes the final tri-
umph of our Senator an assured fact.
Senator Jonas, in his impressive manner,
on Tuesday, discredited the story that
any Democrat in the Senate will vote
for keeping Kellogg in. Immediately on
the veto of the Army Appropriation bill,
by Hayes last week, a separate bill in
terdicting the use of troops at the polls
was drafted; on Tuesday it passed the
House of Representatives by q vote
of 124 to 80. The Greenbackers voted
solidly with the Democrats on this ques-
ton. The question of establishing Ma
tional Quarantine Regulations has occu-
pied much of the Senate's time this week,
but so far no definite action has been
taken. Among the bills presented on
Monday, we notice one by Mr.. Ellis, pro-
viding for the Brazil mail subsidy; one
by Gen. King, for the appointment of
commissioners by the President to attend
the worlds fair to be hold in tho city of
Mexico in 1880; and one by Mr.. Acklen,
requiring the Pacific Railroads which
have received government aid to set aside
fifty per cent. of their net earnings as q
sinking fund to provide for their future
Indebtedness to the government. Gen.
Gibson offered a bill providing "For the
Improvement of the Mississippi River"
up to it's heaIwaters. The General is al
so preparing a bill to impose a tax of 2
per cent. on incomes over $4,000. The
Committee on Banking and Currency are
at present considering bill requiring
the national banks in cities to keep two
fifths of their reserve % secure their cir
culation and deposits in specie, and the
country national banks three-fitths in
specie.

BIA resolution that will at
once recommend itself to.our read
ers as both wise and polite, was
offered in the Convention a few
days since. AS will be perceived ,
a law of this nature would prove
great protection to our own sugar
interests:

fully recommend from our Repre-
sentatives in Congress the passage
Of ouch law as to double the &C

E&A dispatch from Washipg~
ton dated May 7th, says The
adoption of Mr.. saulsbury's reso-
luton to-day may be considered as
practically settling the Spofford-
Kellogg case. Kellogg's mair de-
pendence was on the doctrine of
res adjudicata, and there had been
considerable talk to the effect that
certain Democratic Senators would
vote against reopening the case on
that ground, but the vote to-day
showed that there was no foupda-
ton for such talk, and it may
he assumed that the final vote will
lie substantially the same as that
to-day. The committee will pro-
coed Immediately to take testimo-
nv, ard unless Congress should
adjourn within three weeks, which
is not probable, its report and
action will be reached this session.

E@F We copy the following from
Wednesdays New Orleans Demo-
crot i: The House yesterday, by a
vote of 120 to 90, passed the bill
framed by the Democratic caucus
forbidding the use of troops at the
polls. The bill has already been
introduced in the Senate, and will
therefore be ready for Hayes sig-
nature or veto in a few days. The
Grcenbackers unanimously sided
with the Democrats, and voted for
this bill. The Republicans saw
their false position and attempted
to defeat the bill by parliamentary
tactics. Failing in this. Conger
finally, on the part OF the Repub-
hcans: agreed to vote for the repeal
of all the Objectionable portions OF
the Revised Statutes if the Demo-
Gratis would consent to drop the
preamble of their bill. This COM
promise the Democrats refused, and
passed the bill by the large major
lily Of 81.

THE STATE CAPITAL QUESTION.

Our country exchanges for
a considerable period before
the last election, were almost
unanimous in advocating the
removal of the State Capital
and the large vote in Novem-
Der last shows how well ex-
pressed were the sentiments
Of our people on this question.
Quite a bitter opposition has
been manifested by some poll
ticians and every monopoly in
New Orleans. against Baton
Rouge, but with it all the will
of the people asserted itself,
and Baton Rouge was chosen
as the proper place for the
seat of our State government.
The vote of the people virtu-
ally settled this question and
the only duty incumbent on
the Convention now in session
is simply to incorporate an
article making the change. An
article of this nature has al
ready been presented but no
definite action was taken. It
would not be a bad idea if some
one would remind the men,
bers of the Convention that
they have been INSTRUCTED to
make the change and it is
their DUTY to obey. It was
not left to them to discuss the
cost or impoljcy Of the change.
These questions have been
we'll studied and opinions on
both sides freely expressed by
TWO legislatures and every pa~
per in the State. The peo-
pie want no moro hating or
pickering in this matter, and
neither will they submit to an
open defiance of their express
ed desire. A refusal on the
part of the Convention to re-
move the Capital to Baton
Rouge will be sufficient to
defeat the ratification of
the new Constitution. Every
Constitutional Delegate that
aspires to public position in
the future, will insure immu>
nifty to his political scalp by
voting for Baton. Rouge, for
State Capital.
