|. Lewis r Curtis, Who has
been a resident of Thibodaux for
eight or ten years died last Sun
day morning at his residence on
Rose street.
The deceased had the stamp of
death impressed upon his face
for the last two years, SO that his
decease did not surprise auy of
his friends. Consumption, with
its slow but sure progress had
gradually deprived the body of
its strength. On Saturday he was
up in town, but during the latter
part OF the night he became worse
and passed quietly away as the
dawn Of day dispeled the shades
Of the night.
MIR. Curtis was a native of ST.

The Eighth Alabama.
Inter-Ocean.

Washin gton, Nov. Sit is learned here
through private sources that extraordina-
ry attempts are being made in the eighth
Alabama to count out Lowe, the republi-
can-greenbackcr elect, and count in Geo.
Wheeler, the straight democrat. The
democrats are stimulated in this game by
the knowledge that the house will be
close 1t is also known that Lowe will
act with the republicans in organizing
the house, hence the desperate attempts
to get the better of his 1000 majority.
The way they are doing it is this: When
franchise was first conferred on the color
ed race, republican tickets were printed
with the picture of an eagle or flag on the
top, in order that the ignorant blacks
might know their ticket. To prevent
this, the democratic legislature passed a
law saying that the tickets should have
no figure or device upon them, meaning
no pictures, such as eagles or flags. In
two counties of loves district, where he
got the heaviest majority, the tickets were
printed Eighth Alabama District" in
stead of Roman characters, "VIII". Law
abiding democrats in that quarter con-
strue the figure "8" to be violation of
the law which was passed aiming at
eagles and flags. Nothing could be more
ridiculous, yet upon this fimsy pretext
it is proposed to deny Lowe the election
certificate and give it to Wheeler, so that
he will participate in the organization of
the house. Wheeler was lieutenant
general in the confederate army, being
tho youngest man who attained that "a ak

A Washington telegram says the attor-

in South Carolina to arrest all persons
guilty Of completely in election frauds.
Reports received show most astounding
crimes. 1t is said the democrats even
planted cannon in the different wards of
Charleston with the avowed purpose to
shoot down republicans if necessary to
carry the election for Hancock. Demo-
Gratis armed to the teeth appeared at the
polls, and baskets full Of republican votes

clothes and voted for Hancock. Red
shirts took possession Of Darlington the
night before election, taking possession
of the polls in the morning, no republi-

Some republicans, who tried to vote had
revolvers placed at their heads and warn
ed to go home. One thousand repabli-
cans of that town were deprived Of their
votes. ..

Hancock is defeated. Garfield is elect
ed. And why? Simply because the demo-
cratic campaign was continual series
of astonishing plumbers from the moment
that Wade Hampton committed the init
ial blunder from the platform OF Music
Hall at Cincinnati, in his pledge of the
l3S votes OF the solid south for Hancock.
The mex blunder was to put Barnnm at
the head of the national committee and
begin campaign Of calumny against
Garfield. Even If it be admitted that Gar.
field lad vulnerable personal record, it
was a suicidal policy for the democrats to
assail him. Garfield was the honored
chief of his party. TO assail his personal
honor was to assail the honor of great
political party. Instead of discussing
great measures of public policy and en-
deavoring to convince the people that
some democratic principles were neces-
ssry to the stability of the government,
