fAZOO TACTICS IN LOUISIANA.-The
New Orleans correspondent Of the New
York Times details the election outrages in
Louisiana with more particularly than the
regular press dispatches. Persons arriving
in this city from Madison parish explain how
the Republican majority Of $500 was changed
to 1922 Democratic. Some days before the
election the bnIldozers came in from the
country and made hostile demonstrations
among the colored men as they rode through
the parish. They picked out the colored
leaders Of the campaign and systematically
got rid Of them. On Sunday night Dave
Armstrong was hanged at Manassas; on
Monday night r. Fl. Brown, late postmas-
ter and justice OF the peace, was hanged; ex-
Sheriff Peck was whipped and stretched the
same night. All the other election officers
fled, and the polls were then taken care of.
The complement of votes for the parish was
placed in the boxes, all Democratic, and
counted to make the 1892 majority. The
only Republican votes cast were about 100 in
one precinct. This operation alone makes
difference of 5000 votes in favor of Wilt
The robbing of two polls IN jefferson and
the capture of one in Algiers destroyed about
1000 Republican majority at these points.
Returns from several other parts OF the
state show singular manipulating, which may
be explained later. New Orleans Eolled on
~ half her registered vote. The debt ordi-
nance on reputation was defeated in the
state. The parish of ST. Mary's gave 800
majority for Besttie (kep.). Before the re-
turns could be compiled, bow ever, the clerks
office was entered, and the ballot boxes
were carried off and destroyed.

question of freight. The cargo referred to
is understood to be purchased in Australia,
at about $40 8 head, and the cost of trans
port is $50 head, SO that each head of cat
tie, it is expected, will be land down ir
Liverpool for $40. American cattle often
reach England in better condition than cat
tie from Ireland or the continent, ard those
engaged in the trade claim that the sea voy-
age is positively beneficial to them, after they
have once got over the customary sickness.
In that case the mere length of the voyage
will noe necessarily prevent the transport of
cattle from Australia.
