aUITTEAUING GUITTEAU.

On last Monday, Sergeant Mason,
of Battery b, Second Artillery, in 60
ing to the Jail with the guard relief,
approached the cell of Guitteau and
deliberately fired atthe assassin with
his rifle, the ball grazing his head.
Mason at once surrendered himself
and gave IA reason for his act
"that he was tired guarding that
s--0f-a--b Of an assassin. He has
been placed under arrest and will be
tried by military court martial.
I Mason is a native Of Virginia and
has been in the service some nineteen
years.
Guitteau was much demoralized
by the occurrence and begins to feel
now the gravity Of the wanton crime
he committed on the person OF the
President.
Mason's act is unquestionably an
unlawful one, prompted no doubt by
the deep popular hatred which is felt
towards the despicable assassin Of
President Garfield.
We cannot consider Mason in any
other light than as a self constituted
executioner of lee ta!ionis, which de-
mands an eye for an eye. It is only
to be regretted that Mason and his
rifle were not at hand when Gnitteau
fired on the President.
Mason's case is q novel one, the
solution of which will be fruitful of in
teresting opinions.

TUESDAYS RIOTING I'm NEW OR.
LEANS.

The strikers, on Tuesday, made
New Orleans the scene of tumult and
bloOdshed. Drivers of floats and la
borers were stoned and fired upon by
ugly customers bent on mischief. In
some cases the men assaulted return
ed blow for blow and shot for shot.
One of these Jim Wilson, a colored
man, fred in self defense, wounding
one John Linsky. Another driver
rode up Tchoupitoulas street pistol
in hand and was let alone. AT the
Natchez Press, Hugh Early, at the
head of twenty men armed with shot
guns went to his work.
The police numbering 223 men
under Chief Boylan, acted generally
with c0mmendable determination.
Near the steamship CALICO crowd
of 800 men raised q disturbance to
prevent the work of loading from
going on. a volley of scattering
shots were fred when all hands broke
in every direction, no one being
hurt.
Mayor Shakespeare, finally called
on acting Governor McEnery for as
sistance, whereupon the latter issued
an order placing the city under the
control Of the militia, some 200 OF
whom reported for daty at their ar
mories.

TIVE LATE SENATOR BURNSIDE,
New Orleans Picayune.


Gen. Ambrose E. Burnside, of
Rhode Island, who suddenly died at
Bristol, in that State, Tuesday, was
quite a genius. He wasa soldier, a
ra.lr0adcr, and senator. He inven-
ted a breech- loading rife, and in 1852
he resigned his commission in the
army in order to manufacture his RI
iIe. He was West Pointer, and serv-
ed in the Mexican war, and against
the Indians. In the late war he be-
gan as colonel OF the LIST Rhode Island
volunteer infantry, and at the first
battle of Bull Run he commanded q
brigade. He was made brigadier,
and afterwards a major general. He
commanded the expedition to North
Carolina in 1862. At Antietam he
commanded the left wing of thearmy.
He was at one time in command of
the Army of the Potomac, and again
hecommandedt the Ninth Army Corps.
He served till April, 1865. He was
elected Governor of Rhode Island in
1866, 1867 and 1868. During the
Franco German war he was admitted
within the French and German lines
in and about Paris, acting as a me-
dunn Of communication between the
hostile nations. His term in the
United States Senate began March 4,
1875, and expired March A, 1887. In
1858 he was treasurer of the Illinois
Central Railroad, and if we are not
mistaken he built the Cairo and Vim
cennes Railroad (which has recently
been purchased by Gould's Wabash
SYSTEM. At any rate he was presi-
dent Of it about ten years ago., His
death will make no difference in the
political composition of the Senate,
because Gov. Littlefeld can commits
sion Republican till the meeting OF
the Legislature; but there will then
be three Republican Senators who
have not been sworn in.

Columbia Herald: On the night Of
the I'd Of last April, the residence of
Mr.. T. J. Fuller OF jackson parish was
set on fire, and barely escaped total de-
struction. Coal oil had been poured
about the house in six different places.
Thirteen persons were in the house at
the time. The heuse had been pillaged
the same night previous to the fire, and
several articles were stolen. The house
was damaged considerably. Suspicion
rested on two colored people, Joe Caleb
and Matte Larchie, % woman. The ey-
idencc against Caleb was strong, as the
tracks discovered correspondent with
his. The articles stolen were found in
an adjoining field. The parties were in
dicted at the August term of the Dis
trict Court, but Caleb broke Jail before
Indictment, both parties having been
placed in confinement after a prelimina-

~ examination Matte Lsrche w.
tried, but the Jury failed to agree, the.
division being eleven for conviction to-
ono tor acquittsl. These facts " learn
from the District Attorney, George
Wear.
On Wednesday night, the 31st ult.,
party Of men went to Vernon and took
Caleb from Che Jail and hanged him.
Mr.. Wear hAs kindly permitted vs. to
make the following extract from . pri-
yatc letter addressed to him, OF date the
I'd Of September.
"rhe boy Joe Caleb, charged with at-
tempting to bnrn Mr.. r. j. Fullef's
house, was arrested last week, and
brought TO town, and committed to
jail: when on last Wednesday night .
party Of unknown men came in. aud
captured deputy sheritfs James and
Mack Smith, who were sleeping at the
Jail, and took the keys away from them,
and opened the door, and took Joe out,
carrying him under u strong guard
down the Trenton road below the Hon.
Il. Il. Kidd's and hanged him to o limb
on the roadside. An inquest was held
but nothing definite obtained as to
whom the parties were. The prisoners
in jail were not molested."
This mode Of dealing with prisoners Is
to be strongly deprecated. II the eyid
ence was strong, O jury could have rcnd-
cred justice. But the idea is horrible,
when we contemplate the probable fate
Of the house. The deed was daring
dosperate--fendish.
Morehouse Clarion: One night last
week as Mr.. N. w. johnson, Of the 9Th
Ward, was sitting at his supper table,
surrounded by his family, two guns
were fired ut his body. Luckily, he
was not struck, although some Of the
balls barely missed his head, and lodged
in the wall at his back. Ono Reuben
CUTLER, negro with whom Mr.. John
son had had some angry words during
TINT day, is supposed to be the sconn-
drel that fired the shots. He was seen
at Mr.. Johnson's gate o few moments
previous to the shooting, with gun in
his hands and has since that time been
"on the wing" Strenuous efforts have
been made to captnre him, butup to this
writing wednesday, he is still at large.
Mr.. johnson told us Wednesday that
no was determined to have him at all
hazards. We hope he will succeed.
Reuben has the character Of mean ne
gro, having many scars upon his body
which are marks Of his former devil
ment. Hemp was never made for o
more deserving neck than the one on
which Reuben's Internal head rests. 49,.
A negro man was taken ont Of hit
house and severely logged by crowd
Of other negroes in Gum Swamp one
night last week. Thus the Ethiopian
studies to initiate the example Of the
white man, with whom bull-dozing has
become q lost art. There is yet some
hope that the negro will, in the course
Of q few thousand years, become civ.
ilized creature. We failed to learn the
cause that provoked his friends and
neighbors thus to visit tho Gum Swamp.
or. Probably the Grand Jury may sue.
coed in unearthing the facts.

Morgan City Review: A destructive
fire occurred at Pharr & Williams saw
mill last Wednesday forenoon at about
10 o'clock, totally consuming the mill,
and the splendid aud costly new ma
chinery therein, and several Thousand
feet of lumber. The single mill, some
300 feet away, caught fire, bat was saved
from any material damage by the
efforts of the employees. The insurance
is rumored to be only $4,000, but sl5,-
COG would hardly cover the loss. The
fire originated near the boilers, in some
sawdust, and burst so suddenly and
terriiically upon the workmen, that they
had to fly for their lives The boilers
we're found uninjured,, on account of
being 50 nearly full of water.

THE FOURTEENTH OF sEpTEM.
Der.


Seven years ago, yesterday, the
people of New Orleans, after seven
long years of humiliating submission
to the most damnable rule ever i'm
posed on any portion Of the Ameri-
can Continent, rose in arms, in utter
desperation, to at least strike terror
into the hearts of the political para
sites and robbers, whom tho Grant
Radical Republicans had upheld in
power over State of the Union,
whose only crime was that it had
sought to maintain the rights which
her people believed they possessed
under the Constitution framed by the
revolutionists Of l776.
New Orleans and Louisiana had
nothing more to lose in September
1874. The Governments, State, pa
rOchial and municipal, were in bank
ruptcy, and private fortunes with an
exception here and there, were in
pretty much the same condition.
Law existed but in name, and the
distracted people saw no relief before
them save by ovcrturning the rule OF
the usurper, else to emigrate to other
less unhappy regions.
Like freedom loving men they nat
nrally resorted to arms with the de-
termination to lay open to the gaze
OF the world, the hollowness Of that
Government which claimed by the
voice of the majority and the power
which the majority ought to give,
that it was the legal Government OF
the State of Louisiana.
AS if springing from the bowels Of
the earth, the citizen soldiery of New
Orleans, shouting the battfc-cry of
Freedom, swept from the streets the
metropolitan hirelingsin whom alone
resved the power of Pitt Kellogg, as
swiftly almost as the tornado when
it opens its pathway through the
forest.
IT'S true that the stoical Soldier
President who had hurled, unmoved,
his battalions against the breast
works of Cold Harbor and Peters
burg, brutally ordered the Army Of
she United States to crush with its
bayonets the victorious efforts of our
patriots, yet the blood that had wa
tered the tree Of Liberty had borne
it's fruits. The masses of the Ameri-
can people were startled by the un-
expected outbreak. Coming to their
senses, they saw that q cause for the
triumph of which the best men of q
State had given up their lives, could
not be the unrighteOus one that had
been described to them by the merci-
less haters OF the conquered South.
Speaking through the ballot the
vii! of the majority of the Northern
people said that Louisiana and the
South should be let alone.
From that day began the forward
movement which eliminated in the
liberation of tho State by the election
of Governor Nichols, whose installa-
ton was effected by the citizen SOL
diery on the 9th of January 1877; to
which President Grant at last ac-
guessed.
All honor to the brave men who
rendered the l4th of September, a
day as worthy OF cOmmemoration
by Louisianians, as is the one to
France which signalized the capture
of the Bastille.
