DEATH OF HON. THEO. HARANG.

l. =
Hon. Theophiie Harang of Lafourche
parish died at Guatemala City, Central
America, Oh the 18th Of December, whittier
he had gone to make arrangements for
founding colony. He had been in Guate-
mala since June and was about to depart
for bone when he was stricken down with
pnermonia, which eliminated in .galloplng
consumption and death. Mr.. Harang was
a native of louisiana and spent nearly all
his rife in this State. He studied law ard
practiced for many years in II i5odaux, but
abandoned the profession on account of
poor health and embarked in planting on
the lower Lafourche, near Lockport. Twice
elected to the Legislature, he served the
people of his parish with distinguished
ability and zeal. Within the past few years
he had been engaged in journalistic as we'll
as agricultural pursuits, conducting peri
odical in New Orleans designed to encour-
age the cooperation Of capital and labor,
and inyenting process for the decortica-
ton of bagasse and its manufacture into
paper for which he obtained patent.
He leaves widow and seven children to
mourn the loss of an honored husband and
parent, and their bereavement will excite
deep and widespread sympathy.

We reported last week that mare belong

We reported last week that a mare belong
ing to Mr.. John Solozano of this town had
been stolen from Capt. Nolan's field, and
that suspicion pointed to colored man
employed on the st. Elizabeth plantation
as the thief. On Sunday last information
reached here that an animal answering the
description had been offered for sale in the
parish of West Baton Rouge by a colored
man named Aaron Harrison, aud that both
the man and the mare had been taken in
charge by the Sheriff of that parish.
Obtaining an appointment as special aepa-
ty Sheriff, Mr.. Solozano went to West Baton
Rouge on Monday, and on his arrival there
at once identified the mare as his property.
He returned to Donaldsonville on Tuesday
with Harrison in custody, and turned the
prisoner over to Jailor Duffel. The mare
was shipped down by steamboat later in the
week, and is again in her owners hands.
Harrison offered to sell the animal in West
Baton Rouge, asking S75 at first and suhse-
quently falling to SIS. The big reduction
in his figures afforded pretty good evidence
that he had acquired the property by li!egiti-
mate means. hence his arrest.

KELLOGG VERSUS GAY.

KELLOGG VERSUS GAY.
The announcement comes from Washing
ton that Mr.. Kellogg has completed the
preparation of the papers in his contest for
the seat of Congressman Gay, Represents
tive from this district, and that the contest
ant has made the statement that, while
[ scarcely expecting to obtain decision in
his favor, he is determined to urge his claim
in order to complete the record"
In other words, the main object of the
contest, as we understand the matter, is to
demonstrate to Congress aud the country
the means by which Democratic cantli-
date was enabled to overcome the heavy
Republican majority in this district, and
| whatever may be the action Of
the House of neutrality-suspicious. Mr..
Gay be allowed to retain his seat by virtue
OF the right of purchase, or motif the case
| is properly prepared and presented on the
part Of the contestant it will undoubtedly
exercise wholesome moral influence upon
our political affairs. It is notorious and
conceded fact that Mr.. Gays success in the
Congressional fight was encompassed by
the most lavish and INSCRIPTIONS use of
money, not to mention other undue and IL
legal practices. Disbursing agencies were
established all over the district from which
funds were poured forth in almost unlimit
ed quantities for the purpose Of buying up
votes and - strikers, and if thorough
and anfbnnffC &c
system of wholesale bribery is made
through the ,nedlum,of Mr.. kellogg's con-
test, we think the men who have soiled
their fingers in the unclean business will be
very chary about participating in repeti-
ton of such disrerutuble campaign meth
DDS.
1t Is comparatively immaterial to tie
people of the district whether Mr. Gay or
Mr.. Kellogg shall represent them in Con
gress during the pending term, but it is
very important to US all, Democrats and
alike, that our elections shall,
not continue 10 be carried by the means to
which our present Congressman owes his
seat. The precedent is fraught with meal
cnlab'e mischief and danger to the public
veal. and all good citizens, irrespective of
party, should vigorously discountenance
any attempt to follow it in the future,
Honorable defeat is much preferable to
success by Infamous practices or violations
of law, and no temporary political advant-
age gained by such pernicious methods
Will compensate for the consequent de-
of public morals and injury to
The good name Of the district. |
