Feliciana, Lafayette, Lincoln, Madison,
Morehouso, Natchitoches, Ouachita, Red

The following parishes, Ascension,
West Baton Bouge, East'Carroll, Iberia,
Lafourche, St. Charles, St. Mary and
Terrebonne, give a Republican majority
of 5,968.
Net Democratic majority iu twenty-
eight parishes on State ticket 14,237.
The count of Orleans is incomplete.
It is estimated that the Democratic ma
jority is between 6,000 and 7,000. The
estimate of Wilts’s total majority in the
State is 25,000, and for the constitution
larger. All the parishes giving Repub
lican majorities give heavy majorities
against the debt ordinance, also several
large Democratic parishes. Those to be

In the last Carlersville Free Press
somebody from Romo over the very ap
propriate signature of “Brutum Ful-
men” makes a lame effort to get the
Courier after him. All we have to
soy is that if the writer was as correct
in his political views bb he is successful
in namieg himself aright, ho would do
to tie to. Nothing could be more
“harmless” than the little paper pellet
he labels “thunderbolt” and hurls at us.
election was quiet throughout the State,
Theiie is an evident disposition on
the part of the Southern members of
Congress to keep quiet and keep out of
wrangles with the Radicals. Modera
tion is a rare virtue in tho average poli
tician, and it will be a wonder if they
"succeed in such a enurso. The main
thing is to keep quiet and vote right.
We hope the policy of the extra session
will be adhered to and not a dollar ap
propriated for pay of marshals and
troops at tho polls.
Louisiana has gone for the Demo
crats by a majority of about twonty-five
thousand votes at a fair, quiet and
peaceable election, after Gon. Woodford,
u Northern Radical, had gone there and
made bloody-ehirt speeches that would
put Blaine atul Cockling to shame.

Wonder if Hayes does not feel his seat
slipping from under him?
A sad case of killing occurred Wed
Cay in Jonesboro, Matt Walker and
(leorgo Mansfield were rival candidates
for Mayor of the town, and at a supper
given by Mansfield to the negroes, to
which Walker went, a difficulty got up
between them, and while Mansfield was
belaboring Walker with a stick Walker
shot and killed Mansfield, the ball eiv
tering the brain. Both gentlemen seem
to have stood fair in tho community,
and had had no quarrel prior to the one
resulting in Mansfield’s death.
It appears that Hon. Emory Speer
was not sent to Congress ior nothing,
He recently administered a severe re-
buke to such older and very reverend
members as Garfield and Felton by in
troducing a resolution to have Sunday
music stopped by the army and marine
bands. So young, and yet so good
The streams of piety that How from this
resolution remind one of the outgivings
of a very wet sponge, or of the sad re 1
frain the boys in gray used io sing as
they wearily marched along, which
ended with:
"Thro’ii room onougli in Habersh s ill t.i have
homo In Rabun.”
The Studied efforts of the Radicals
and their convenors, the “Independent'
office-hunters, to bring tho Democratic
party into disrepute by talking of it as
a "ring” and a “cliquo,” and by calling
its individual members “tricksters,
“Bourbons," etc., have about lost their
force. The conservative men of the
country have been awakened to a full
sense of the purposes of the charlatans
and demagogues who have U9cd these
phrases so flippantly. Recent devel
opments show the animus of some of
the "Independents” so plainly that
words of intended reproach used by
them are beginning to be accepted os
evidences of correct principle on the
part of the party they would slander,
Already we see the press of the State
and hear the people around us rejoicing
in the fact that they belong to the “or'
gani/.jd” Democracy, and are thought
worthy of being called “Bourbons” by
Radicals.
The egotistic, untimely and ill-tern
pered letter of Dr. Felton will do more
to put down factions in the Democratic
ranks in Georgia than anything that
has happened since Hayes stole the
Presidency. If we are forced to choose
between Jacobinism and Bourbonism
we intend to fly the flag of the latter.
Louis before Robespierre.—Sparta Ish-1 memory stands.
Washington. Dec. 3.—Both branches
of Congress held but half-hour sessions
to-day. To morrow they will adjourn
over till Monday or Tuesday. Most of
the members aro at present busy in at
tending to delayed business iu the de
partments for their constituents, and
this is the reason for the short sessions
now being held. Hardly any commit
tees have met as yet, and no one expects
any business to be done before the holi
day recess, which will be taken on the
20th of this month. The members of
the Appropriation Committee, say, how
ever, that they will try to pass the Mili
tary Academy, forti fleations and pension
appropriation bills before the recess.
A hatch of nearly four hundred ne
groes arrived here to-day from North
Carolina, making the second lot within
few days, on their way to Indiana.
They are here on the promise made by
the National Aid Society, wbioh has its
headquarters in Washington, that they
should receive 840 and a ticket to In
diana. They will leave to-night. The
local manager of the exodu3 movement
reports thousands in North Carolina
ready to follow under the promises
made to them, which is that there will
be given 840 to every family and a
house free of rent in Indiana, with sev
enty-five cents a day until they find em
ployment.—Special to the Courier-
Journal.
Woodford’s Louisiana Cam-
paign.
Louisville Oourior-Journal.
“Gen. Stewart L. Woodford, of New
York,” says the New York Times’ Now
Orleans correspondent, “who has been
addressing largo and enthusiastic meet
ings throughout Louisiana, delivered a
a speech in Lafayette square, this InBt
evening to an audience of fully 8,000
people, mostly white, and the greater
proportion Democrats.” The Times
calls attention to the fact editorially,
and casts a severe reflection on Blaine
and other cowardly Stalwarts who re
fused to go and address Democratic
mass-meetings in Louisiana. Gen.
Woodford only found it convenient to
go to Louisiana at the tail end of tho
canvass, and so he was not able to make
many Stalwart harangues to help the
Democrats along, but he did enough to
increase the Democratic majority very
appreciably, and if Blaine, John Sher
man, Logan and Roscoe Conkllng had
taken part in tho campaign the Demo
cratic majority would have been the
largest on record. Tho Democrats
deed, cordially invited these men there,
as did the Louisiana Republican Com
mittee; but they did not go because
they knew perfectly well that their re
peated assertions in the North, that free
speech wa3 gagged everywhere in the
South and that Republicans were shot
down on the speaker’s stand, would be
demonstrated to be falsehoods of a very
glaring kind. Prominent Republicans
have candidly stated that this is the pre
dicamonilthe cowardly slanderers found
themselves iu.
Littell’a Living Age for 1880.
The fact that this standard weekly
magazine has had a successful career of
over thirty-five years against much com
petition, is proof sufficient that it meets
an undoubted want of the public. It
furnishes what is essential to American
readers in a great and indispensable
current literature—a literature which
embraces more and more every year
the work of the ablest thinkers and
writers of the day'. As the only satis
factorily complete and fresh compen
dium of this literature, its importance
and value havo steadily increased. If
enables the reader, at trifling expense,
considering the quantity and quality of
the reading furnished, to keep pace with
tho best thought and literary work of
our time; and its great convenience to
every intelligent person or family can
therefore hardly be over rated.
The extra offer to new subscribers
for 1880, and the reduced clubbing
rates, are worthy of note in the pros
pectus published in another column’
The magazine is well worth the atten-
Wasiiington, December 1 3.—A pub
lished interview with Senator Gordon
has attracted a good deal of attention
He says strongly that the proper course
for tho Southern members of Congress
is to refuse to ba drawn into any sec
tional debate of any kind, because they
are always misrepresented in the North,
and hostility to the South in that sec
tion has spread. This declaration re
ceives the support of all thinking mein
hers from the South. It is r.ow pretty
firmly established that every efibrt will
be made to prevent sectional debates.
General Walker, Superintendent of
the Census, is disposed to grant the re
quest of tho Rspresontativus from the
cotton growing States that the proportion
of cotton grown by white labor be as
certained. The object of ascertaining
this fact is obvious. If General Walker
does not undertake it under the present
bill, it is the intention when the appro
priation for taking the census is made,
to put in n clause directing that this
work be done.—Special telegram to Sa

The least defensible acts of the present
Administration were the appointment to
office of all or nearly all the returning
Board rascals in Louisiana and Florida.
This is gvein as a substantial reason by
the Springfield Republican why the Pre-
sklent should steer clear of any member
of the Electoral Cmmission, however
high his character may be in other re
spects. In regard to the rumor that the
President prefers Mr. Frelinghuysen for
the English Mission, tho Republican
says:
“Ex Senator Frelinghuysen, who, it
will be remembered, was a member
of the Electoral Commission, is an
nounced in various quarters as the Pre
sident’s choice for the English mission.
No objection can be made to Mr. Fre
linghuysen as a man, but as a mere
matter of good taste and sound public
morals the administration ought to keep
clear of the Electoral Commission iu
conferring positions of honor at its dis
posal. The fact that in sundry flagrant
instances service of a highly question-
aolo character in 1S76 have been rewar
ded by office does not of lor the slightest
apology for selecting a member of the
tribunal which passed iu the first in
stance on the electoral votes from dis
puted States to fill the highest and most
important foreign mission on the Gov
ernment service. The objection weighs
as little in Senator Frelinghuysen’s case
as it would in any man’s. His public
life is aboye suspicion, but this makes it
all the more necessary that is good re
cord should not bolster a bad presi
dent.”
New York Herald: In a report of
some things said by a physician just
home from Memphis we find this re
ference to cotton:—“There are thousands
of bales of cotton at present lying in
Memphis in the gutter and dirty streets,
They are saturated with yellow and
malarial fever poison and will take it
wherever they go. Eighteen men in
the employ of the Iowa Central who han
dled them died of yellow fever." Mem
phis is too completely demoralized
for the world to expect that any
local authorities there would take
steps to prevent the exportation of that
contaminated cotton ; but it certainly
never should come out of that city,
should be burned there and the Nation
al Board of Health should see that it
is. If they do not they shall certainly
hear next summer of the sudden, un
explained and mysterious appearance
of yellow fever in some factory town.—

Galvesaon, Dec. 2—The News special
from Wayco says: “Last Dight in the
county near here, where a dance was
Philadelphia Record: President
Hayes wrote “wiser than he knew”
when he spoke of “existing laws aimed
at the protection of the right of suf
frage.” He means, probably, that the
laws referred to, and which made so
much trouble in the extra session of
this Congress, were intended to secure
"the protection,” etc. The expression
“aimed at” implies an exactly different
idoa; but it is nearer the correct view of
the subject, ridiculous as i3 the blunder
of Mr. Hayes. Unwarranted and un
constitutional interference with elec
tions, whether by Federal bayonets or
United States deputy marshals, is look'
ed upon by a good many people in this
country as hostile to the free exercise of
the right of suffrage.
Many Republicans express little sat'
isfaction at Felton’s letter. They eeem
o think that he ought to hoist the op'
position colors at once, and join a Rad
ical club or the Grand Army of the Re
public. To us the letter is most wtl
come. It shows an appreciation of the
situation that augurs better things to
come. It is very significant, emanating
from one of so large a following in the
State, and one who, with Mr. Stephens
heads the Independent movement in
tho South. These men have more than
half the Democrats of Georgia at their
backs. They will soon have more than
half the whites throughout the South
under their banners. While the organ
ized Democrats are talking of making
Grant their candidate, the better por
tion of the party, under the lead of these
two distinguished Georgians, may see
that it is wisdom on their part to sup
port John Sherman.—Atlanta Repub
lican.
progressing, Bud Wood asked Mias
Grace Stanfield to dance, which she de'
clinad. Wood became angry and de
manded that the dance cease. Wood
then followed Will Currie into a back
room and provoked a fight. Currie
knocked him down with the tongs.
They met outside the house and had a
duel with pistols. A dozen shots were
exchanged, and Currie was wounded in
the hand, a bystander wounded in tbe
leg and Gao. Wood shot in the thigh.
Bud Wood then went to where Miss
Stanfield was talking with Albert Chock,
made two attempts to shoot her, and
then, remarking to Chock, ‘You are a
friend of Currie,’ shot Chock dead,
knocked Jim Currie senseless with a
pistol and escaped,”
inaelite.
Ex-Governor Vance, of North Caro
lina, said to a newspaper correspondent
the other day: “Tho South love Grant!
Love the devil! For him we have only
the bitterest hatred. His policy of re
construction should bo punished in hell,
the flames of which will not long be
withheld from tho tyrant. He was a
military despot; without a Bpark of prin
ciple; without knowledge of civil gov
ernment or honesty in his ignorance
thereof; as utterly unfit to preside over
the United States as any man they
could have selected. The South will
remember him with curses as long as
We would support
Conkling rather than Grant.”
“Lit Secretary Babcock call the roll
of the old gang,” says the New York
Son, “and there would be a cheerful re
sponse to every name, with a not whol
ly unreasonable assurance that they had
come to stay.” Fortunately for the
country—at least wo have that much
confidence in the common-sense of the
people—Mr. Babcock will never call
any more rolls. There is something
like public patriotism extant, and it will
relegate all bummers of the Babcock
pattern to the obscurity which their bad
odor deserves.
Wm. H. Vanderbilt has seut to the
Treasury Department to be registered
five million of four per cent, bonds,
which, it is understood, he has pur

cents registered at the Treasury, and his
new purchase makes him probably the
largest individual holder of United

Augusta Chronicle: The Democratic
Readjusters in the Virginia Legislature
