Govornor and Senator

N. @. City Item,
The Item last evening met q distin-
guished resident of one of the Red
River parishes who is intimately ac-
auainted with most of the leading men
of the State, has had no little political
experience, and who has been taking
observations at the capital for Q week
past.
Asked what would be the result of
the Senatorial contest, he made the de-
cidedly surprising reply None of the
candidates now announced will win.
About next Thursday Mr.. Don Gallery
will Withdraw and nominate for the.
distinguished honor Of succeeding Gen.
Gibson s seat in the q. S. Senate Gov
ernor Murphy D. Foster p

sponsa. He has all the immense pa-
tronage of the Governorship still in

thou hast here beneath his feet, and then
once more shall the Watcher look upon
thee"
Now Dingaan saw that this was true
and gave no command. Still he must
have blood, so he turned on me.
Thou art a traitor, UmbOva, as |
have known for long, and as yOnder
dog served his faithless servant so will
serve thee" and he smote at me with
the assegai in his hand.
But | saw the stroke and springing
high into the air avoided it. Then !
turned and fled swiftly as | might, and
after me came certain of the People of
the Az. Moreover, they saw me coming,
and headed by UmslOpOgaas who walk
ed the last of all, ran to meet me. Then
the soldiers who followed me hung back
out of reach of the AK.
Here with the king is no place for me
any longer, my son" said to Umslopo-
gaaS.
Fear not, my father; will find you
place" he answered.
Then | called a message to the soldiers
who followed me, saying:
Tell this to the king, that he has
done i'll to drive Inc from him, for |,
Umbova, set him ON the throne and
| alone can hold him there. Tell him
this also, that yet worse will he do to
seek me where am, for that day when
we are once more face to face shall be
his day of death"
Then we marched from the kraal UNI
gugundhlOvu.
This of Dingaan. When he heard my
message he once more grew afraid, for
he knew me to be no liar.
Therefore it was that for awhile he
held his hand, sending no impi to smite
Umslopogaas lest perchance it might
come about that should bring him to
his death. And before the fear had worn
away it happened that his hands We're
full with the war with the Amaboona
because of his slaughter of the white
people, and he had no soldiers to spare
with whom to wreak vengeance on a
petty chief living far away.
