give best goods at the lowest prices, and as
we can easily do this on account of our facil-

articles, enabling us to purchase our entire
stock direct from the manufacturer, thereby
saving the profits which other stOrekeepers
are compelled to pay the wholesale dealers.

A MEMORY OF 1876.
A New Orleans Story About the Celebrated
Returning Board.
TN.~y nrfoo,a de,

The city Item publishes an interview
with gentleman of this city. whose name
il declines to give, but who is understood
10 be an official OF the jefferson Gas Com
pany aud n man of wealth, relative to the
story recently published of the attempt
made to purchase the celebrated Return
ing Board in 1876, and induce it not to
count the vote of the State for Hayes and
Wheeler. While she board was in session
counting the vote three prominent politi-
clans came down to NV Orleans from New
York City, and, after remaining ut the st.
Charles Hotel for several days, called on
this gentleman ana presented him letters
from friends in the North. They said, that
there was no doubt but Louisiana had been
carried for Tilden and Hendricks, but
would be counted otherwise unless the
returning board could be influenced.
Knowing Anderson and Casanave person.
ally, he had been chosen to make the nego-
tiations. Gen. Anderson was visited by
him and off, red 100000 to return the
State for Tiiden. He seemed highly Of
Tended, and said, most emphatically,
that it was out of the ques-
ton. Casanave was then visited
and offered smaller sum, but
is held out, but he still remained firm.
After the vote Of the State was announced
for Hayes and Wheeler this gentleman was
again selected to approach the elect rs and
find whether any one of them would change
bis vote. Anderson, who Was an elector,
refused, but another member of the Elec-
toral College agreed to vote for Tilden and
Hendricks, naming his price at $4,000,
which was promised him. When, however,
he found out that Anderson had been APP
preached on this subject, and had refused
the offer, and that as he would be the only
elector voting for Tilden, he became
frightened and backed down. III Gen. An
derson had yielded there would have been
little trouble, this gentleman says, in ar
ranging with the other members of the
board, except Wells, but they feared to act
without Anderson.

fell mercilessly from the Recorders lips. Tho
announcement in the morning that Col. Fellows
would make the great speech of the day drew
hundreds of would-be spectators to the court
ROOM only to find they could not get near the
guarded doors.
McQuade appeared resolute, amos. cheerful,
but his brother Barney was pinched and pale.
He looked more like man accused OF the great
crime and on route TO Sing Sing than any other
man in the room. 1t was difficult to
tell how the jury stood until Col. Eel
lows began 70 sway them with facts garlanded
with eloquence. Then il was plain that he held
their most profound attention. The points
made by Col Follows were afterward covered
in the Judges chnrge-namely that the Lyddy
injunction should be taken official notice of
that the Office of the Broadway liailroad syndi.
cate in the Office of the cOmpauys counsel
Robinson, ScTibncr, and Bright: that these
lawyers knew from Clerk Ma oney that the
Aldermen were to hold special meet
ing and pass the franchise before the
order for the discontnuance OF the iniunc-
ton had been obtained, and before Maloney
had sent out the calls to the Aldermen to meet
at nine o clock on the following morning; that
there was an agreement, because the Doodle
lawyers and the Broadway Railroad people
knew it; that five of the Aldermen including
McQuade, met at McLaughlins house, because
the uniInpeached servant girl Kate Metz,
saw them 90 and come from McLaugh-
Inns house; that McQuade did large
business, and used checks. except
about Just after the Doodle transaction
when lie was seen with $500 and $1,000 bills III

agreed rs TO details ana dates, they all SUD-
stantaly agreed 10 the chief facts in the case
as stated by Fulgran and Duffy, and cor
roboratod by other witnesses and docum entary
evidence. Col. Fellows scored point when 10
told tho jury that the public and press were
watching them, ana they could never hold up
their heads again il they allowed bribery to go
unpublished.
Recorder Smyth reviewed the caso Mt great
length He pronounced the testimony OF the
servant girl, Katie Metz To be direct. mistaken,
and worthy OF much weight. IL was in the nature
