New York, October 20.—The Herald's New Orleans special says : Tuesday even ing the Conservative leaders hold u meet ing, and docided to commence criminal prosecutions against Kellogg, Longstreot, Badger, and all Radical leaders for mur der. Tho charge will bo conspiracy, on the 14th of September, against tho lives citizens while in tho exercise of tho rights guaranteed under tho constitution, in removing and protecting arms. Tho affidavits are bciflg prepared to-day, and two U. S. ComiuiHsioners agree to iRsue warrants. If Marshal Packard rofusos-.to exeonto them, the Commissioners will di rect Gen. Emery to do so, nud under the President’s decision ho must execute the ordor of tho Unitoff States Court, as rep resented iu tho person of n commissioner. While affidavits wiil be filed, the war rants will not bo issued before tho elec tion, unless further arrests of whites uro made. As tho offense charged is murder, all who are arrested must^lio in tho parish jail. MAJ. MERRILL DENOUNCED—RADICAL U. S.

Taxes on income and exports ore to bo increased. —The Daily News states that the pro ject of marriage between the Princess Thyra, of Denmark,and tho crown Prince of Hanover has been abandoned. —Iu a speech made to the bishop Verdun, tho Pope expressed his sympathy with Franco, and declared it necessary for nil Catholic powers to unite in defence tho church and society. k —An appeal made by Count Von Arnim to the Supreme Tribunal at Berlin against a decision in a lower court refusing to set him nt liberty has been docided adversely to the Count. —Among the measures to be submitted to the Gorman Parliament is a proposition to induce a genoral imperial income tax, to bo combined with the customs and ex ciso duties, instead of the present system of contribution by different States. —The Daily Telegraph says : “Prince Louis Napoleon, who’will complete his studies at Woolwich Academy in February next, stauds at present eleventh, and not twelfth, iu the first class; and we learn that, despite all the statements to the contrary, hixhas not yet decided upon the course ho will take upon leaving the in stitution." —The fuueral of Ver Georgo Strobel took place yesterday in St. Mary’s (Cath olic) Church, Philadelphia, where he had been pastor for twenty-five yoars. After impressive ceremonies in the clinrch, which was draped in black, the remains were deposited in a vault in the burial ground at the rear of the church. FAIR ELECTION. New York, October 23.—The Tribunes special says: “The action of Gon. Mer rill, commanding at Shreveport, in going into court himself and making affidavits against the signers of tho labor pledge, has created a vast amount of disgust and iudignation. Only a fortnight or so ago Gen. Emery declined in a published note to Packard that the military should, un der no circumstances, bo allowed to med dle in political affairs ; yet Gen. Merrill, within five days after his arrival in Shreveport, steps aside from his official position to make affidavits in a potty Commissioner's Court, against citizens who have brought themselves, at least so it is declared, under penalties of purely a political law. Tho offouso, whatever it was, had been committed before his ar rival. It iu no wiso uffeeted tho interests he had iu charge. But tho worst feature of the case is thut tho first one of the Shreveport citizens selected for arrest and arraignment was J. J. lloran, tho Con servative candidate for tho Legislature, whilo the Commissioner before whom he is to be tried, A. B. Levisoe, is his oppo nent on the ltadicnl side for tho same office. They could not induce tho Deputy Marshals at Shreveport to servo tho war rants and so sent to the adjoining parish and got the Deputy Sheriff of tho parish, named Neill, to servo them. There is grout excitome^t at Shreveport in con sequence. Tho army officers hero Would not boliove, yesterday, that Merrill bad taken this action. Every one seemed to consider it unbecoming and improper. The Federal authorities are pushing arrests now in Caddo, DoSoto, Nntcliito- chos, Rod River, Graut, and, in fact, iu nearly all tho northwestern parishes, nud in St. Martin's also. If the object is not to affect tho election by intimidating or driving out the Conservative voters, it looks much like it. difficult to say what will ccmo of Field’s action in tho case of the natural ized citizens. Ho declares their papers illegal, and if tho Registrar should there upon strike off their names, tho result will be 'tho disfranchisement of nearly half of tho Conservative majority in this city, and that would givo tho State to the Radicals. Tho opinion is^ divided ns to the Registrar’s probable course. Mine is that tho scheme will be carried out by tho Radicals if they And themselves courage ous enough. It now seems clear that there is little if any chauoe for a fair election in Louis- idRa. The Conservatives are keeping quiet—enduring everything in silence and patience—determined to have no collision and to vote, if they nro not put in jail meanwhile. But with these cavalry raids and indiscriminate arrests in a dozen par ishes, the disfranchisement of Conserva tives, and the fraudulent registration pa pers issued to negroes (two thousand are known to have been issued), I cannot see by what stretch of charity tho forthcom ing election can bo tormed fair. AJOB MERRILL RAIDING THROUGH THE EMORY DEMANDS A UE- cratic State Committee of Louisiana have presouted a remonstrance to Gen. Emory against tho action of Col. Merrill in ar resting tho citizens of Shreveport, who or ganized to control tho negro voto by dis charging from their employment all who do not abandon the Republican party. The committoee opine that as Col. Merrill is Gen. Emory's subordinate tho latter should interfere to stop tho arrests, aud cnll hands off to tho niilitnry policeman. A U. B. OFFICER ACTING AS OATn MAKER. New Orleans, October 20.—Tho follow ing is tlio text of tho affidavit upon which tho citizens of Shreveport were arrested: United States of America, ) District of Louisiana. ) Personally came and appoarod before uio, the undersignod authority, Lewis Merrill, Major of tho Seventh Regiment of United S'atos Cavalry, who, being by mo flrst duly sworn, did depose and say that on or about the ltith day of October, 1874, at tho city of Shreveport, in tho district aforesaid (bore follow the names of tho ninoty citizens), did, each aud every ono of thorn, conspire to intimidate and control numorous qualified voters iu said district, in exorcising tho right of suffrage, by threatening to deprive said voters of employment by threatening to refnso to renow tlio contracts with said votors for labor, iu violation of n statute of tbo United States.

New Orleans, Oct. 23.—A proposition to adjust tho difficulty caused by th<5 dis franchisement of voters naturalized by tho Second District Court was made to day. It provides an additional ballot-box, into which tho votes of poisons so dis franchised cun bo deposited, and a sub mission of tho matter to tho courts after the election. Tho naturalized citizens will hold n mass meeting. The Democrats refused such a compromise. one hundred lawyers decide THE COURTS CAN NATURALIZE. New Orleans, Oct. 23.—A meeting of the bar declared that the Second District Court had tho power of naturalization. Over one hundred members of the bar signed tbo declaration. PETITION FROM NEGRO VETERANS. New' Orleans, Oct. 23.—Tho surviving members of tho Chalmctle Brigado, now numbering only twonty-fivo colored men, in New Orleans, have appealed to the President for support during the coming winter, ns all ihoir funds were iu the Freedtueu’s Savings Bank and nro lost. The youngest member is now seventy-five oars old, aiul asks that tho Government jrill charitably regard their appeal, and reminds tho President that they fought under Gon. Jackson at New Orleans, nud their only reward wus commendation iu General Orders. THE WEATHER.

New York, October 29.—Tho Herald's Now Orleans npecial telegraphs as follows: Notwithstanding that Gon. Emory tele graphed to Major Merrill to report wheth er he had made any arrests at Shreveport, Merrill has failed to answer, ignoring the Commander of the Department. As the regulations require that ho should report through General Emory, instead of direct to the War Department, it is understood that Emory has telegraphed th® Depart ment on tho subject. Merrill lays him self open to court martial by refusing to answer Emory; but his object evidently is to raid through tho State and terrify the people before Emory can restrain him, trusting to administration influences to sbiold him from punishment. Information from tho lied river country shows that the white males are Hoeing to the woods to avoid arrest ot tho hands of Merrill’s cavalry, as others did in Missouri during tho war, when there was much raiding about the Stato. General Emory says but little, but it is evident he is in no way responsible for this federal jayliawkor's operations, and keenly feels the Blight pat upon him.
