POLITICAL NOTES.

Jossph Comes, lately n candidate for sheriff
In Ascension. retires IN favor u Capt. Prosper
Landry.
The Democratic convention OF tho Ninth
Senatorial District. composing tho parishes of
Terrehnnno Lafourche and Assumption. met
IN Thibodaux on last Thursday. the thrtieth
instant, and nominated Edmund Mcclellan
and n. /. Grisamore for tho Senate.
The independents have figured out only 1900
votes for their ticket. 1t may be taken for
granted that the balance Of the vote is con-
ceded TO the Democrats. That's about right,
we guess It leaves the latter with 1000 ma
jority.- Baton Rouge Advocate.
We learn that tho independent boom Mt
Jewelln was q failure. L. III to be hoped TINT
the gentlemen who were Interested IN getting
up the meeting will think better OF It, and
gracefully fall into line and support tho Dem
ucratic ticket. Any other course must needs
strengthen the Radical party shreveport

few days ago fifty mounted and disguised
men made midnight visit to the house OF
Charles Courtney, In Writ county, and de-
manded tho person Of one Sam Ring, who is
said to be 9 fugitive from justice in Monroe
county. Ohio Ring was surrendered to-
the vigilants, taken q short distance from
tho house. stripped to the waist and whipped
with hickory wfthes until he tainted. He was
then ordered to leave the county at once. The
next day Ring swore out warrants for VIM.
King md VIM. Steel, whom Ring says he
recognized among the gang Of Red Men.
They were not arrested, however, as no Off

thirty eight, entered the village Of Writ
Courthouse They We're oil masked, and

marched through the town, armed with hick-
ory withes.
