The Congressional Campaign.
Progress Of the Kellogg Canvass in the
Third District.

| The nominee will be accompanied by
number of distinguished speakers, who
will cnlighten Republicans as to tue
true issues of the contest and pull aside
the veil of deception and misrepresent:-
ton with which it is sought to cover the
| eyes Of the people. In this parish the
followers of Judge Beattie are exerting
themselves to the utmost to discourage
Republicans from attending to -,norrow's
meeting, and we presume this will be
their policy throughout the district. 1t
remains to he seen how much effect this
scheme will have. The boitefs are afraid
to let their followers hear the truth, and
well they may be.
TerrebonAe for Kellogg.

EDITOR CHIEF:
After thorough canvass of this parish from
plantation to plantation, and careful observa-
ton Of the people at their ward meetings and
the enthusiasm displayed ON the adoption of
resolutions endorsing Hon. VIM. Pitt Kellogg,
we are confident that Che parish will give ct
least $50 majority for Kellogg. Hon. r. B.
johnson and VIM r. Boyd, Esq, have invited
the Beattle boilers to joint discussion in all
the wards and have routed them at every meet
ing where they dare to appear. At some meet
ings the Beattie advocates were only allowed to
speak through the courtesy of a joint discns-
sion. The boilers look crestfallen.
