AIsxlcO's Position In the NIatter-NO ActIoi
Taken by the House.
WASHINGTON, D. O., August AIN thu
House to-day Mr., Belmont, Of New York
from the Committee on Foreign Affairs
reported the Cutting resolutions, which
were published this morning, and re
ceiyed unanimous consent 10 have then
Immediately considered.
Mr.. Hit, OF Illinois, said that the reso
lutions seemed to be the unanimous re'
port OF the Committee Oh Foreign Adairs
The resolutions had been adopted by the
Committee yesterday when the cores
pondenCe upon which they were based
was In manuscript, and when the only
information before the committee was con-
tained In the report oithe Secretary oi State
In that report 1t was stated that demand
had been made for the release OF Cutting
and that the Mexican Government had
refused to release him. Acting upon this
he, Mr.. Hit, had assented TO the resOlu
tions,
Since then he hSd read the correspond
once, and instead Of the Mexican Govern
ment having refused the demand oil the
United States 1t had shown every spirit oI
compliance. There was no evasion, there
was no defiance, there WAS very nearly
humiliation in the tono Of that feeble gov
ernment before the sudden, defiant de-
mand Of the Secretary Of State in the
name Of the President.
Mr.. Belmont was somewhat surprised
that his colleague should have changed
his opinion on this subject. His friend
denied that Mexico had refused the
demand OF this county, bul
he could lnd no better authority
than the Secretary OF State, and that otli
Ger had declared that Mexico had refused
to release Cutting, lie commented upor
taken by Mexico, and upon which tie
case hinges. Pending further discussion
the House. adjourned until 10 o'clock to
morrow,

IN POLITICS.
In lSi6 Mr.. Tllden was a member OF the
Constitutional Convention. About this
time various circumstances resulted In Mr.,
Tilden's partial withdrawal from politics.
He devoted himself to his profession, and
It was nOt many years until he was as we'll
known at the bar as he had been known
10 politician. Early in 1870 began the
celebrated controversy concerning the
new charter Of the City OF New York. AL.
though standing well nigh alone, Mr.. Til.
den went to Albany aud made speech in
scsthlng denInGiation OF the charter which
restored the Tweed dynasty to power.
Bribery, however, had been 80 successful.
ly carried on that the bill passed unani.
rlously and under 1t the 81, ,000, 900 robbery
occurred. BY his bold act against the ring,
Mr.. Tilden had made himself prominent
in the work Of reform, and In 1874 was
urged to accept the Democratic nomina.
ton for Governor. He was elected ever
Gov. John A. Dix (Republican) and Nor.
gan II. Clark (DemoCrat), by majority
OF SS540 out OF total vote OF 794, 1888.
Till the war came Mr.. Tilden made every
effort to avert it, but when his efforts fail.
ed his path Of duty was perfectly decided
and clear. II was to maintain the integri.
ty OF our territory aud the supremacy oil
the constitutional authorities. When Mr..
Lincoln made his first call for 70, 900 troops.
he maintained that he should have called
out 100000. In the convention OF 1864 he
insisted that the restoration Of the Union
was the only possible basis OF an adjust
nent between the North and South. His
subsequent political career, his Presiden-
tial candidacy and bis public life since the
decision Of the Electoral Commission are
well known.

We have examined the parish Jail and find
Ia good many prisoners therein. We find the
prisoners as well treated as could be expected
under the circumstances. We would suggest
that the Jail be thoroughly cleaned and dis
infected.
We have been informed that the road over
seers throughout the parish are not doing
their duty and that Consequently, the roads
are not in good condition. While we have
not had sufficiently precise information to
justify us to find any indictments against
them, We deemed it our duty to take some
notice of the information which we have re-
ceived hoping. that in the future they will at
tend to their duties.
We have carefully examined an cases
brought before us and have passed upon all
except a few. which were continued until the
next Grand Jury, III consequence of the fail
nre OF the witnesses to attend. We take
pleasure in reporting the progress of our new
courthouse building and think that consider
