To the Editor OF the Democrat:
After ten DAYS absence in New Orleans. on
nv arrival here my attention has been called
10 an article OF pelican" in the New Orleans
DEMOCRAT Of the twenty-fourth ultimo in re-
ply to mine of the fourteenth ulttmo, with re-
rard to the speech of Gen. Sewell, In COM
pairing the assessment of New Orleans with
that of the country parishes
ssPelican" says Judge Crowell was clerk OF
the court OF this parish In 1876" But he
should have stated that was clerk in 1875
and 1875, and that my assessment In 1876 was
less than s1,9o0,0o0.
I became clerk and member OF the board OF
assessors In 1875; but in 1874 two-thirds OF the
lands OF the parish were overflowed, including
some of the finest plantations in the parish.
Every intelligent man knows that these over
flowed plantations could not be got in plant
Ing order for at least two years after. Hence
my assessment in 1s76-s1 100000. In 1870,
1871, 1879 and 1873 the assessed value of our
parish was over 100000
sf2elican" In his article conceals the fact OF
the overflow of 1874, and hence our assess
ment In 1876 Did pelican" state in his arti-
Gle that in the case OF the New Orleans Pacific
Railroad Company vs. Ed. j. Gay. Mr..
Gay In his testimony In our district
court last month, In this parish, swore
that the cultivated lands OF his plantation in
Crosse Tete, In this parish, through which
the railroad would pass was worth $50 per
acre? The said plantation has 1900 acres as
eessed for $1,000, 600 acres under cultivation
These 600 acres alone. according to Mr.. Gay q
Testimony would be worth $4,000. II the
Crosse Tete cultivated lands are worth $50
Der acre, the river cultivated lands should be
worth $100 per acre. Pelican" again refers
to the Roth, McWilliams IL Co. Medora place
as being partly In West Baton Rouge. Let us
leave the Medora place out OF the inventoried
property OF Roth, McWilliams d Co., and we
lind his inventoried property worth $l49, $50 20
and but assessed for $4,000. Pelican" Is SC
fond OF finding fault with everything that bis
articles on the assessment OF properly Ia the
parish OF Iberville cannot appear to the read
ers Of the DEMOCRAT as truthful.
grossly failed in his duty as a sworn Official
Ia 1876, or the Democratic government OF the
State has enhanced the value OF Its property
il the amount he claims, viz: 100 per cent In
two years" III the Democratic government
appointed proper assessors throughout the
marshes OF Louisiana, she could to-day pay
the interest on her bonds, aid only assess as
ira 1870. up to 1878. The statements OF 'Peli
can" are unreliable, fanatically radical. LII
every office have been placed In as sworr

oath; and In the assessment OF 1876 Judge
Crowell did not grossly fail in his duty, but
