The* Humored Louisiana Adjustment.
We find in tbe New Orleans papers the
details of certain overtures commenced
previous to the military outrage on Mon-
d *y last, and continued since, for a final
a ljustraeut of the political difficulties in
that State. The proposition is to sub
mit the whole trouble, commencing with
the election iu 1872. to the arbitration of
the Congressional Investigating Commit
tee, both parties agreeing to abide by tbe
decision of tbe committee. Nothing fur
ther can be learned from the papers than
that the committee consented to investi
gate the election of 1872 and decide which
set of candidates were elected, on condi
tion of a pledge of acquiesence being
given by both parties. This pledge was
given by tbe McEuery party, but we find
no similar pledge from Kellogg and his
faction. The following special to the
Courier-Journal, dated on the 7th inst.,
contains, we suspect, the upshot of the
matter. The dispatch says:
“Before the departure of this sub-com
mittee McEnery, Penn,‘Graham, Ogden
and Lusher, fusiouists, elected in 1872,
submitted to the final arbitration of this
committee the question of their election
to their respective offices, pledging tbem-
The White League Bugbear.
Gen. Grant’s third term programme is
a war programme. It is his policy to
bring the country to a semblance, at
least, of civil war, as the only means of
securing his re-election. To accomplish
this it is necessary to have a Southern
belligerent. It takes two sides to make
a war. and if the people of the South
will not rebel against carpet-bag fraud
i and oppression, there must be some ene-
; my hunted up somewhere, against whom
! to array the loyal North. It has been re-
: solved to put tbe White League, an asso-
| ciation of citizens formed for mutual
protection and the preservation of public
I order, in the attitude of enemies to the
government. With this in view they are
denounced by Conkling and Morton in
the Senate, as turbulent and law-defying
men, “ covered with blood,” and “ ready
to commit fresh murders,” and little
Bully Sheridan, that enfant terrible of
the Federal army, calls on Grant
for a proclamation declaring them out
laws and banditti, in o r der that he may
proceed to hunt them down and exe
cute them. Fortunately the inves
tigations of the Congressional Com
mittee are throwing light on this
subject, aud the information which
has been obtained iu regard to the true
character and purpose, of the organiza
tion will have the effect to disabuse the
public mind and relieve the League from
the prejudice which Radical falsehood
and misrepresentation has sought to in
spire for the basest political purposes.
The New York Tribune of Thursday last,
in a special dispatch from New Orleans,
gives an account of an interview between
its correspondent and Mr. William Wal
ter Phelps, a Republican member of tbe
Committee of Congress now in New Or-
selves to abide by tlAir decision, with
the express understanding that Kellogg • leans for the purpose of ascertaining cer-
and his colleagues would join in the sub
mission and pledge. It is said that Kel
logg assents for himself, but that his col
leagues stand aloof, distrusting his sin
cerity and believes that he intends to be
a c andidate for the United States Senate
in wise judgment is given against him by
the committee.”
What Grant’s Com* d’Etat has Ac.
coxirLisaED.—(1). It has aroused the
friends of Constitutional liberty of all
parties and all sections of the Union
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from
the Aroostoc to the Rio Graude. (2). It
has blown Grant’s third-f!erm aspirations
to the four winds of Heaven. (3). It has
given the death blow to Radicalism. (4).
It has made the rottenness of Kellogg's
usurpation palpable and transparent.
(.">). It has exhibited the ruffianly satrop
Phil Sheridan to the world in his true
character, and stamped him with im
perishable infamy. (6). It has opened
iho eyes of the people to the iniquity of
permitting the army to be employed as
the mere instrument of a political fac
tion. (7). It has revived the hopes of
the true people of the Uuion for the res
toration of Constitutional government,
sectional concord, peace and prosperity.
(8). It has demonstrated the danger cf
elevating mere military men to the Presi
dency. Grant is the last military Presi
dent of the Republic.
Abolishing Capital Punishment. —
The New York Sun refers to the recent
o itrage iu Des Moines, Iowa, where a
band of ruffians entered the prison, and
dragging a man from the cell who was
awaiting sentence for murder.hanged him
to a lamppost in the yard,as a result of the
abolishment of the death penalty there by
law. Some years ago, in a spasm of
sympathetic tenderness toward the com
mission of capital crimes, the Legislature
of Iowa abolished the death penalty by
the substitution of imprisonment for life.
This has exhibited the same influence
with all similar relaxations of punishment
for the highest of crimes. If we are to
accept this as one of the resulting im
provements of a milder punishment for
murder, if the convicted criminal is to be
seized by lawless hands for summary
execution, it my be a proper subject for
consideration by the next Iowa Legisla
ture whether they shall not re-enact the
old statute which denounces death to the
shedder of blood.
tain facts in respect to tbe recent elec
tion in Louisiana. In this interview Mr.
Phelps gave his opinion of the nature
and objects of the White League organi
zation with directness and emphasis. He
says:
“He [Mr. Phelps] thought the com
mittee’s presence iu New Orleans had
done one good thing: it had exploded the
dread mystery of this White League. It
was not secret; it was not political. It
was not an organization of the State. It
numbered but 2,800 iu the city; its con
stitution was published, so were all its
resolutions; its deliberations are public,
aud there has been no meeting at which
reporters and citizens have not been
present. Its only act of appareut law
lessness was that of September 14th (the
day when the Kellogg government was
actually overthrown). For that it offers
the justification that all beyond the rescue
of its arms was unpremeditated. Its
officers are all men of character and pro
perty, and it intends to act only as a su
perior police in the interests of law and
order.”
TnE Radicals Alarmed.—The Radi
cal caucus iu Washington on Saturday,
convened mainly for the purpose of con
sidering the best way out of the Lousiaua
infamy, is said to have been very inhar
monious and unsatisfactory. The carpet
baggers are rampant for extreme meas
ures, but the more prudent men of the
party cannot shut their ears to the thun
ders of popular indignation reverberating
from centre to circumference of the
country, It is also ascertained that the
cabinet is not a unit in support of Grant’s
third term programme. Sagacious Re
publicans say thsit tbe Lonisiana business
gives New Hampshire and Connecticut to
the Democratic party.
Grant's Coup d’E tat—Alarm of the
Kepublicans.
A Washington special to the Courier-
Journal says: “The Republican party in
Congress are evidently staggering under
the load of the Louisiana iniquity. The
leaders are appalled at the strength and
intensity of publi^ opinion on the sub
ject. It is now 'well understood that
among the Republicans there is a strong
under current of opposition to these pro
ceedings, and that many of them agree
with the Democrats in the conviction
that Grant’s operations in Louisiana are
merely the opening of a revolutionary
advance to a third Presidential term. As
for Grant he entered into this business
deliberately, and is ready to adhere dog
gedly to his position regardless of public
seutiment, if ouly Congress will sustain
him. The number of Republicans who say
that Grant has irretrievably ruined their
party is on the increase. The Speaker of
the House, Mr. Blaine, is generally be
lieved to be anxious for an abandonment
and repudiation of Sheridan’s high
handed act, and the friends of Secretary
Bristow and Postmaster-General Jewell
affirm that they are not responsible for
the indorsation given by Secretary Bel
knap to the Sheridan coup d'etat. The
sentiment of the Democrats is one of
j admiration aud sympathy for the people
of Louisiana, and a perfect conviction
that the Republican party is hopelessly
damned by the usurpations and projected
atrocities of the Grant-Sheridan regime
in Louisiana. The eagerness for debate
on the Republican side has vanished, and
it is now the Democrats who are pressing
their opponents to the wall.
There is no longer a doubt, says the
Cincinnati Enquirer, as to the intentions
of our worth}' President. The Outrage
Committee in Louisiana indicates that
the stolid, avaricious, mercenary creature
of the White House is a candidate for a
third term, and the South is to be crushed
out and kept within his control by the
bayonet. But the nails are being driven
into his political coffin with great rapid
ity*
Two more persons, names not known,
have been implicated in the Pacific Mail
swindle. Probably there are a dozen
Congressmen iu Washington, each of
whom wouders whether the lightning is
next to strike him. This vague announce
ment which is all the Investigating Com
mittee will permit, is therefore most dis
tressing to everybody concerned.
The new Mayor of New York has called
upon the corporation counsel to show
ciuse why he should not be removed
from office. He brings various charges
against that official, to which Mr. Dela-
field Smith, the officer in question, gives
a flat denial. This seems like the be
ginning of a vigorous government in tbe
metropolis.
The Herald puts it none too strongly
when it says that what General Grant has
caused to be done in New Orleans will
prove a finishing and irretrievable blow
to him and the Republiea£*party, unless
Congress shall promptly repair the mon
strous injustice which has been perpetra
ted under the eyes of one of its commit
tees.
The next great struggle on the civil
rights bill will come off probably on Mon
day next. It cannot pass if the Demo
crats shall be in their seats, but many of
them are absent. A Washington dispatch
says : “The effort will be made to pass it
by a two-thirds vote on that day.”
The Cincinnati Enquirer says the fact
that Cuban bonds can be, or have been,
sold in this country undoubtedly indi
cates that there is a widespread sympathy
with the people struggling for liberty on
that island, but a Babcock bond-holding
lobby can only injure the Cuban cause.
The Drunken Dubell’s Escape. —A
Washington dispatch says: “The Re
publican faction in tbe House buried
Judge Durell on Thursday, and in doing
so gave the Administration party and the
Kellogg government one of the severest
blows it has received for some time. The
judiciary Committee reported back the
resolution of impeachment, and asked
that the} 7 be laid upon the table. The
opinion of the committee was unanimous
that the famous midnight order which
set up the Kellogg government was suffi
cient grounds for impeachment, and that
the evils existing in the State to-day are
directly traceable to it. Even Butler was
forced to admit this. Tremaine declared
that it resembled a military command
rather than a judicial decision. Mr. Nib-
lack contended that Durell was still liable*
to impeachment, but by a party vote he
was permitted to escape the punishment
he so richly deserves.

The Louisiana Excitement in Wash-
ton.—A special to the New York Post
says there is no abatement in the excite
ment in Washington over the Louisiana
troubles, which “is on tbe increase and
becoming intense.” The President is re
ported as being incensed at some of the
utterances of Republican newspapers,
and very outspoken in his determination
to stand by General Sheridan and Gov.
ernor Kellogg. Both the Republican and
the Chronicle defend the action of tbe
military on Monday. The former paper
says that it is the duty of Congress to au
thorize the President to pursue the course
suggested by General Sheridan in his dis
patch to the President, and alludes to the
speeches of Messrs. Thurman and Gordon
in the Senate as rebel attacks on the
President.
THE LOUISIANA COMMITTEE.
Washington, January 10.—The sub-com
mittee appointed by the House Special Com
mittee on Southern Affairs, and which has
been investigating matters in Louisiaua for
some weeks past, returned to Washington
last night. Its members—Messrs. Foster,
of Ohio, Phelps, ot New Jersey, and Potter,
of New York, are necessarily reticent as to
giving expression to their views in advance
of their presentation to the full committee,
and of the maturing aud making of its
report to the House; but enough is known
to authorize the statement that there is no
conflict of opinion among the members of
the sub-committee as to the principal points
iu controversy. The action of the Return
ing Board in throwing out the returns of
certain parishes in which Conservatives were
elected, aud in giving certificates to some
Republicans who wero not elected, will
doubtless be condemned as an illegal aud
unwarranted exercise of authority.
The testimony taken before the commit
tee does not sustaiu the charges of violence
aud intimidation towards negro voters, but
ra her tends to establish the fact ihat large
numbers of negroes voted the Democratic
ticket from a conviction that in doing so
they were advancing their own interests and
the interests of the State. It is a mere mat
ter of conjecture as to what course of policy
the committee will recommend, but the
probabilities are that it will be in the direc
tion of a new election. The excitement iu
New Orleaus when the committee left that
city was intense, but there was no likelihood
whatever of it being manifested in any
general outbreak. The Kellogg govern
ment is submitted to only under the pres
sure of the military power of the United
States, and in the expec at ion and belief
that Congress will devise aud adopt some
measure that will restore the commonwealth
to the control of its own citizens.
THE WASHINGTON WEATHER PROPHET.
Washington, January 10.—Probabilities:
Daring Monday iu the South Atlantic and
East Gulf States, lower barometer, rising
temperature, north to east winds, clcuily
and rainy weather will prevail.
Iu the West Gulf States, lower baroemter,

The President’s Salary.—The bill re
cently introduced in the House by Mr.
Cox to bring the President’s salary with
in the operations of the act repealing the
law by which it was raised from $25,000
to $50,000 has been laid on the table by
the House Appropriation Committee. A
bill is pending, however, in another com
mittee, which provides for the establish
ment of the Executive salary at $25,000
per year after March 4, 1877. Of course
on the passage of this bill General Grant
will feel constrained to return to the
Treasury the one hundred thousand dol
lars double pay he will have received at
the end of his term.
Beast Butler said in the House recent
ly, “No man is more anxious to get at
Louisiana than I am.”
Since he plied his vocation so suc
cessfully in New Orleans the Beast seems
to think Louisiana is made of spoons.
A special to the New York Post con
firms the statement that Speaker Blaine is
outspoken and emphatic in his opposi
tion to the course of the President in
New Orleans. He declares that he is not
in sympathy with the policy which pro
poses to rule three States by military
commissions.
The Louisiana situation remains un
changed. Meanwhile not a negro—not a
white man, woman or child suffered from
Sheridan’s banditti duringall last week.
FRENCH politics.
Paris, January 10.—Tlie Duke de Broglie
ha3 informed President MacMahon that he
will not be able to organize a Ministry until
the Assembly comes to a decision with re
gard to the constitutional bibs.
The President to-day communicated to
the Council of Ministers the results of au
interview had with various party leaders,
and requested the present Ministers to re
main in office until the Assembly comes to a
vote on tho constitutional bills aud a new
government is formed. All acceded to the
request except Chaband la Tour, Miuia'er
of the Interior, who will probably be re
placed by Grivart, from the Department of
Uommi rce.
It is hoped the army biil will bo disposed
of in the Assembly on Tuesday or Wednes
day, and that the consideration of tbe ©in
stitutional bills will immediately follow. The
Ministers will take no part iu the debate.
GRANT AND HIS CABINET.
Washington, January 10.—Ice rumors of
dissentious in the Cabinet on account of the
policy of the administration in regard to
the Louisiana trouble are again repeated in
well-informed circles, and it was stated to
night that Secretary Fish had tendered his
resignation to the President. The Secretary,
however, denied the truth of the rep *rt,
stating positively that ho had not resigned,
though as to what would lake place ho did not
know. There seems to be ever} indica"ion
that at least three members of the Cabinet
are not thoroughly in accord witu the Presi
dent on this troubles >me question, aud have
intimated to him that they will resign.
It is knowD tiiat several promineut Re
publican Senators were in consultation with
Secretary Fish to-day, and this tact has
iven riso to the rumor that an effort is be
ing made to reconcile any differences which
may have taken place between him aud the
President.
SPANISH AFFAIRS.
Madrid, January 10.—King Alfonso has
left Barcelona for Valencia, where he is « x-
pectcd Monday evening, thence he goes di
rect to Madrid and will arrive on Tuesday.
The Council Members have tendered Count
Yalmaseda the office of Captain General of
Cuba. Yalmaseda will not accept the post
unless he is granted a reinforcement of 20,-
000 men, which he deems indispensable for
the suppression of the insurrection.

The Next Presidential Election.—
A Washington dispatch says there has
been much comment of late on the pos
sible complications to grow out of the
next Presidential election in case it is
close. Some writers have conjured up a
bloody revolution as the result in case
one or tbe other House of Congress
should object to counting the vote of
a State which would decide the elec
tion. This can be done under the joint
rule regulating the counting of the elec
toral vote, but it is understood that be
fore the session is over a movement will
be made to abrogate this rule. Should
this be done, it would again place in the
hands of the President of the Senate tho
arbitrary control of the counting of the
vote. Many of the Democratic members
say they have no objection to this. They
consider that the next Presidential elec
tion will be so overwhelmingly on their
side, that all dispute will be precluded.
The Freedmen’s Bank.—The sub
committee, composed of Messrs. Dur
ham, Farwell and Merriam, to which all
matters pertaining to the Freedmen’s
Saving and Trust Company were re
ferred, embracing sundry petitions from
parties for the government to reimburse
losses sustained by them, is unanimous
in the conviction that the government
cannot assume such liabilities. The com
mittee have instructed Mr. Durham to
prepare a bill to better enable the com
missioners to wind up the affairs of the
bank, and directing the commissioners to
institute civil and criminal proceedings
against all concerned in tbe mismanage
ment of the bank.
It was in 1799 that Bonaparte over
threw the Council of 500, th»* Directory
m fact, and was declared First Consul.
In two years more he was made Consul
for life, and in two years more he became
Emperor. And all these fine things came
about because a Legislature obnoxious to
him waa deposed. After this came
Waterloo and St Helena.
SHKBIDLAN S REPORT.
Hradq't’rs Military Division of Mo., 1
New Orleans, La., Jan. 8, 1875. J
To Hon. W. W. Belknap, Secretary of War,
Washington, 1). C.:
I have the honor to submit the following
brief report of affairs as they occurred here
in tbe organization of the State Legislature
on January 4, 1875. I was not in command
of this mill;ary department ur.til 9 o’clock
at night, on the 4tfi inst., but I iully endorse
ar.d am willing to be held responsible for
the acts ot the military as conservators of
the public peace upon that day. During
! the few days in which I was iu the city prior
to the 4th of January, the general topic if
conversation was the scenes of bloodshed
that were liable to occur on that day, ami I
repeatedly heard threats of assassinating
the Governor, aud regrets expressed that
he was not killed on the 14th of December
last, also threats ot ihe as.-assinatiou of Re
publican members of the House iu order
to secure the election of a Demo
cratic Speaker. I also knew of the
kidnapping by the banditti of Mr. Couviuier,
one of tbe members elect of the Legisla
ture. Iu order to preserve the peace and
to make the State House sate for the peace
able assembling of tho Legislature, Gen.
Emery, upon the requisition of the Gover
nor, stationed troops in the vicinity of the
building. Owing to these precautions the
Legislature assembled iu the State House
without any disturbance of the public
peace. At 12 o’clock William Yigers, the
Clerk of tbe last House of Representatives,
procee ied to call the roll as according to law
be was empowered to do. One hun
dred and two legally returned mem
bers answered to their name's. Of this
number fifty-two were Republicans and
fifty were Democrats. before enter
ing the House Mr. L. A. Wiltz had been
select *d in caucus as the Democratic nomi
nee for Speaker, and Mr. Michael Hahn as
the Republican nominee. Vigers bad not
finished announcing tbo resul*, when oue
of the members, Mr. Biilyan, of Lafourche,
nominated Mr. L. A. Will* for temporary
Speaker. Vigers promptly declared the
motion out of order. At that time, when
some oue put the question, and amid the
cheers of the Democratic side of the Housp,
Wiltz dasbe.l ou to the rostrum, pushed aside
Mr. yigers, and seized the Speaker’s cli ir
and gavel and declared himsfitl Kpeakor.
A protest against this arbitrary and unlaw
ful proceeding was promptly made by the
members of tbe majority, but Wiltz paid no
attention to these protests, aud, upon
a motion from some oue on the Demo
cratic side of tbe House, declared
one Trezevant nominated and elected
Clerk of the House. Mr. Trezevant at once
sprang forward and occupied the Clerk’s
chair. Amidst the wildest contusion over
the whole House, Wiltz then again, on an
other nomination from the Democratic side
of the House, declared oue Floord lected
Sergeaut-at-Arms, aud ordered that a cer
tain number of assistants bo appointed,
lustuitly a large number of men through
out the hall, who had been admitted on
various pretexts, such as reporters and
members' friends and spectators, turned
down the lappels of their coats, upon which
were pinned blue ribbon badges, on which
were printed in gold letters the words
“Assistant Sergeaut-at-Arms,” and the
Assembly was in the possession of tho mi
nority, * and the White League of
Louisiana had made good its threats of
seizing the House, many of the assistant
Sergeauts-at-Arms, being well known as
Captains of White League companies in this
city. Notwithstanding the suddenness of
this movement the leading Republican mem-
bprs bad not failed to protest again aud
again aginst this revolutionary action of the
minority, but all to no purpose,
aud many of the Republicans rose
an ! left the house iu a body, together with
the Clerk, Mr. Vigers, who carried with him
the original roll of the House as returned by
the Secretary of State. The excrement was
now very great. The acting Speaker di
rected the Scrgeant-at-Arms to prevent the
egress or ingress of members or others,
aud several exciting souffles, in which knives
and pistols were drawn, took place, and for
a few momeu’s it seemed that bloodshed
would ensile. At this juncture, Mr. l upre,
a Democratic member from the parish ot
Orleans, moved that the mili’&ry power of
the Goaersl Government be invoked to
preserve tbe peace, aud that a committee be
appointed to wait upon Uen. Do Trobiaod,
the commanding officer of the United
States troops stationed at the State House,
aud request his assistance in clearing the
lobby. The motion was adopted. A coni-
miitce of five, of which Mr. Dupre was
made chairman, was sent to wait upon Gen.
De Trobian l, aud soon returned with that
officer, who was accompanied by two of hi*
st ff officers. As Gen. Do f rob lan d walked
down to the speaker’s desk, lound applause
buret from the Democratic side of the
House. Gen. De Trobi&ml asked the
acting speaker if it was not possible
for him to preserve order without appealing
to him as a United States army officer. Mr.
Wiltz said it waa not, whereupon the Gene
ral proceeded to the lobby, aud addressing
a few words to the crowd, peace was at once
restored. On motion of Dupre, Wiltz then,
in the name of the General Assembly of the
State of Louisiana, thanked Geneva! DeTro-
briand for his interference iu behalf of law
and order, and the General withdrew 7 . The
Republicans had now geoorally withdrawn
from the hall, and united in signiug a peti
tion to the Governor, stating their griev
ances and asking his aid, which petition,
signed by titty-two legally returned mem
bers of the House,is iu my pooss-3siou. Im
mediately subsequent to the action of Wiltz
iu electing the Clerk of the old House, Biil-
yeau moved that two gentlemen from the
parish of DcSota, one from Urim, one from
Bienville aud one from Iberia, who had not
been returned by tho Returning Board, be
sworn iu as members, and they were ac-
c rdingly sworn iu by Mr. Wiltz, aud took
seats upon the floor a3 members ofthe
House.
A motion was now made that the House
proceed with its permanent organization
and accordingly the roll was call d by Mr.
Trtzevant, the acting clerk, and Wiltz was
declared elected Speaker and Trezevant
Clerk of tho House.
Acting on the protest made by the major
ity, the Governor now requested the Com
ma ndiug General of tho Department to
aid him iu restoring order and enable
the legally returned members of the
House to proceed with its organ zation ac
cording to law. This request was reasona
ble and in accordance with law. Remem
bering vividly the terrible massacre that
took place in this city on the assemb iog of
tho Constitutional Convention in I860 at the
Mechanics Institute, and believing that the
lives of the members of the Legislature were
or would be endangered in case of an organ-
izition uuder the law 7 as attemp’ed, the
posse was furnished, with the request that
care should be taken that no member of the
Legislature returned by tho Returning
Board should be tjected from the floor.
This military posse performed its duty un
der direction from the Governor of the
State, and removed from the floor of
tho House those persons who had been
illegaliy seated and who had no legal
rights to be there. Whereupon the Demo
crats arose aud left the House, and the re
maining members proceeded to effect an or
ganization under the State laws. In all this
turmoil, m which bloodshed was imminent,
tho military posse behaved with great discre
tion. When Air. Wiltz, tbe usurping Speak
er of tho House, called for troops to prevent
bloodshed they were given him. When the
Governor of the State called for a posse for
ilie same purpose and to enforce the law, it
was furnished also. Had this not been done,
it is ray Ann belief that scenes of bloodshed
would have ensued.

Lieutenant General.
VIRGINIA WANTS TO SPEAK.
Richmond, January 9.—The following res
olutions were introduced in the State Sen
ate :
Resolved, By tbe General Assembly of tbe
Commonwealth of Virginia, that the G v-
ernon of the States composing the United
| States of America, be and they hereby are
1 earnestly requested to convene as soon as
practicable the Legislatures of their respec
tive States, in order that the States may
consult together and advise with each other
resptc iug the late interference of the army
of tbe United States with the LegiaJature of
the State of Louisiana, and to determine
simultaneously and promptly what is necas-
aary to be done to defend and preserve the
independence and autonomy of the States.
Resolved, That the Governor of this Coat*
monwealth be and he is hereby raqusetai
forthwith to telegraph these resolutions to
the Governors of the several States and re
quest immediate replies.
An animated and prolonged discussion
eusued, in which the spirit of moderation
predominated, leading Senators opposing
Virginia taking The initiatory movement as a
State in this grave matter. It was the general
opinion, however, that Virginia should giro
expression of seutiment through her Legis-
ture ia the form of a protest against the
action of Geu. Grant in relation to Louisi
ana, and an appeal to American people for
redress, aud also to express the deep and
lasting sympathy of the people of Virginia
with the people of their sister State ef
Louisiana. At the conclusion of the discus
sion the whole matter w as laid over and
made the special order for Tuesday at 1
o’clock.

FOR PHILADELPHIA.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Bulletin sa;s: “The Civil
Rights bill so persistently brought for
ward and so pertinaciously fought at
every step, is a measure that has few real
friends. Its principal supporters are the
Mississippi carpet-baggers, who want it
passed to save their bacon at the next
elections. It may be wondered why this
is true. It is true because the negroes
nominate and elect the members of Con
gress ; aud as the former do not read or
comprehend an idea easily, success in
passing the bill is the only explanrtion
that will secure their re-nomination. The
parrot when he emerged from under the
sofa with the monkey after him, the par
rot’s disturbed feathers directed to every
point of the compass, had breath enough
to say : ‘We had a devil of a time.’ Just
so the Mississippi Congressmen are now
excessively agitated, and are willing to
succeed at any hazard that does not coat
their life. But the Civil Rights bill, un
less emasculated, cannot pass the House. ”

The Annual Sale of Pews in Ply
mouth Church.—The annual auction of
pews in Henry Ward Beecher’s church
took place last week. Mr. Beecher was
present, and spoke of the prosperity of
the church through all vicissitudes, even
when the papers recommended rolling its
ministers in the dust during the slavery
agitation. Although arrived at that peri
od of life when most men expected rest
from labor, he was unable to do so, bnt
he accepted his trials in patience and
trust in God. The sales ranged from
$550 down to $10. Last year’s sales
amounted to $58,346, and this year s to
$70,319. Among the highest bidders
u ere H. B. Claflin and Henry C. Bowen.
Plymouth church, under the manage
ment of the festive Beecher is becoming
even a more popular place of amusement
than was the Grand Opera House when
managed by that jolly debauchee, Jim
Fisk.
TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
New York, January 9. — The London
Times of the 25th of December, gives an
account of tho terrible accident on the 24th
on the Great Western Railroad, in which 3
persons were killed and upwards of 70
wounded. A large number oT passengers,
the most of whom were vi-iting their
ftioutls for Christmas, were being conveyed
in thirteen carriages with two engines from
the Great Wt stern station at Oxford at 1:14
to the’Birmingliam and Northern Railroad.
The train, wuich was half an hour la.e,
proceeded safely for about six miles, when
the tire ot a wheel of the .first-class carriage
broke and immediately left the metals, aud
for at least three hundred yards plunged
along over the sleepers, many of which
were cutia two, and rushed over a wooden
bridge, aud a similar bridge over
the Oxford aud Birmingham canal-
The carriage was thrown down the
embankment and dragged after it several
others. The train was traveling at the rate
of forty miles au hour, and the impetus
given to the carriage s as they left the rails
carried them with terrific force for a long
distance until they were finally dashed to
pieces in the meadows below. Three car
riages and a luggage van wero deposited be
yond tho canal. One carriage carried away
one of the stone abutments of the bridge,
and fell in splinters into the water. Frag
ments of two carriages turned wheel up
wards were litera'ly strewn about the em
bankments, and one carriage was hurled
right up the line on to the bank. The front
of the train continued its course for some
distance. In the case of a majority of the
victims death was instantaneous,
ALFONSO.
Madrid, January 9.—A Spanish frigate,
with Alfonso, arrived iu the harbor of Bar
celona this morning. Tho Prefect of the
city and a number of deputations, represent
ing various organizations, went on board to
welcome the King to Spain. His Majesty,
io reply to these greetings, said : “I am
happy to re-enter Spain by way of Barce
lona.' I know the wants ot Catalonia. Of
my titles, I am proudest of that of Coant
of Barecelona.” His Majesty landed at 11
a. m. He was received at Die pier by the
authorities of the city and immense crowds
of citizens, who were very enthusiastic in
their demonstrations of welcome. H6 went
to the Cathedral, and afterwards reviewed
the troops. He will remain in Barcelona
nntil to-morrow noon, when he wiU leave
for Valencia.
THE IMPERIALISTS.
Paris, January 9.—The anniversary of the
death of the ex-Kmperor Napoleon waa duly
observed in this city by the Imperialists.
Memorial services were celebrafc d in the
Church of St. Augnetin, which was densely
crowded. Perfect order prevailed through
out the day.
The New Orleans Bayonet Legisla
ture.—A New Orleans dispatch says :
•‘Since Sheridan's expulsion of fifty-seven
Democratic members of the House of
Representatives, the rump remaining is
making slow progress in the mockery of
legislation. Having no faith in the va
lidity of their organization, they have
made to the expelled members informal
overtures of compromise, which have
been rejected, except on condition that
the organization of the House as existing
at the time of their expulsion shall be
restored, with Wiltz as Speaker. All the
Democratic members still remain in the
city, holding daily consultations and
awaiting events. The city is perfectly
quiet and our people self-possessed.”

—OF THE—
Radical Assumption.—General Phil.
Sheridan, Grant’s lieutenant and hench
man, says: “I have to-night assumed
control over the Department of the Gulf.”
The usual military phrase is, “I have
taken command.” The difference is
obvious, and it is not in favor of popular
liberty. Mr. Sheridan 4 ‘assumes control, ”
and that it is not an inadvertence is seen
by the following General Order No. 1,
where the phrase is repeated:
“New Orleans, January 4, 1875.
“[General Order No. 1.]
“Under instructions from the President of
the United States, communicated through
the Adjutant-General of the Army, the un
dersigned hereby assumes control of the
Department of the Gulf, consisting of the
States of Louisiana, Arkansas aud Missi
ssippi, and the Gulf posts as far eastward and
embracing Fort Jefferson and Key West,
Florida, excluding the posts in Mobile Bay,
which will hereafter constitute one of the
departments of the Military Division of the
Missouri.
