Kew Oii-HAN^/ Nov. —Seven polls were missing from the returns before the board of fourteen, in east Baton ltouge, leaving the count he foxe the Board as follows: Tilden, LICE; den, 2,238; Hayes, 1,626, ascertain- edlfroni the returns of the commiss ioners. Afu;r,inuch discussion and hn&ftr orinipitlint from thf iDepiocrau of cast Baton Rouge they laid aside the returns. The returns of fourteen parishes are still missing. St.. Mar tin’s parish is finished. The Demo crats remonstrate that the returns for all, except electors and Governor, are examined and tabulated by clerks in rooms apart from tlio board, and they ask for a Democratic representa tion on tlie clerical force to detect errors and frauds. With regard to the returns laying in the express office, Gov. Wells said acceptably: J. W.

For Clerk of the &bi£t ad Tax-Collector, jrfe T fol- lowing gentlemen are believed to be in tlie field, all pf. whom are clever men, and either could fill the position acceptably: J. W. Johnson, E.

Both of these worthy gentle men are very popular, and both have many strong friends who will work hard for them when the day comes. For Ordinary, the present incumbent will find a competitor in the person of Mr. Thrasher. I have heard of no one Offering for Treasurer in opposi tion to Mr. Thomas Booth. Newspaper men everywhere, for several months, have been unusnally active in behalf of their journals. They have expatiated at legntli upon the important events of the year— the great Centennial, the big elec tions, etc., and vqry justly and truth fully represented that it was a good time to subscribe for and read the first, solve how it is that your mer chants, lire paying the same price for cotton as Augusta and Atlanta and selling goods at the satrie prices as those cities.

So keep up the good work write and talk “ early and often’’ of extension and we though poor will do all we can to aid in the good work. ‘ orno’j V/Bii Hf.YS. Tlie French Assembly. There is something riielo-dramatic in the French Assembly, which is heightened by theatrical surround ings, for the Capitol is a theatre of ing those roads from New York the |Lo ui9 the Fourteenth’s construction. Mystery was solved. The officers of The P^ette and first tier of boxes the Northeastern Road having estab- » devoted exclusively to tlie use of fished through rates, With the other the Deputies, arid constitute the floor roads, your mercharits Send cotton to of the chamber. The stage fa closed isrifei - „ anninw behind the first wings by a painting, New York at a saving of fifty cents per bale and get their goods at' re duced through rates. Hence, they can pay half a cent more for cotton than heretofore and can sell goods to pay for the cotton cheaper than here tofore. The result is, that the planter realizes half a cent iriore for his cot ton and perhaps as much more is saved to him in the price of the goods ho buys. The farmers see flhis, and- more cotton than ever before will be marketed in Athens. In a year or two the quautity will be double what it was in 1875. It is only necessary now for your ‘mer chants, to establish a first class wholesale business, in the leading ar ticles of county consumption and year trade is assured and your pros perity established. which serves as a background to the lofty seat of-‘the President of the Assembly. Before him rises up out of the place of the ancient orchestra, the tribune or pulpit where France delivers alb her legislative speeches, whether they-;be of fivo minutes’or two hours’ length. The tribune is in front and below the President of the Assembly, in a position correspond* ing to that of the Clerk’s desk in the House of Representatives at Wash ington. In the tribnne, the speaker’s back is turned to the President of the Assembly, whom he practically ignores. He speaks directly to the Deputies, addressing them as Mes sieurs; and this way of speaking straight to the hearers, incites to dis turbance. It is a rule in the English Bureaus, is conducted by tlie lYesi- jdent of the Assembly, aided by the tip-staffs arid' other subordinates. Wlfeu a vote is taken in the chamber, green urns, of classic shape, are car ried around bv the tip-staffs, in which each Deputy deposits his card, for or against, as the case inky be. There is a Ministerial bench immediately in front of the tribune, where some of the members of the Cabinet are al ways to be fpund when tlie Assem bly is in session. Each one, as in the British Parliament, advocates and defends the measures emenatlng from the branch of government oyer which he has charge. Furnishing nuts for the Ministers to crapk, is called inter- pelation. The defence of the general policy j of the government is usually confided to the ab’est speaker of the Cabinet. In the American Congress there are usually two divisions, al though at tho present time, there arc three; consisting of Republicans, Democrats and Independents. In France, there are lio less than five— the Right, Right Centre, Left Centre, Left, and Extreme Lett, or Radical, often derisively called by its adversa ries La NouoeUe Couche Socialc. One or two ecclesiastics occupy seats with the Right. ' The deportment of some of the Deputies appears rather light to American eves. They, bring opera-glasses with them, and while the body is in session, they stand up with their back to the presiding offU cer, and take a cool and lengthy sur vey of the galleries, as spectators do in the orchestra-stalls of the French theatres.
