elegant chesnnt oarriago horses which are siad
to be so elosnly matched that a stranger could

When the rido is over and if F.rnnm is smart,

bis most weight with Grant.
Tex Feu Question.—A number of the re
sent political disturbances in Germany, And es
pecially In Bivaria, havo been occasioned by an
Increase in tho price of boer, the staple drink
of (he regions mentioned. This has arisen from
the feet that tho breweries are nnder the con
trol at tho government, and an increased pries
in the batrols of beor sold to tho retail dealers
imoonts really to a rise in tho rate of taxation.
Thus a few weeks ago a serions riot was re
ported to hare originated at Frankfort-on-the
Main, from the above causes. On the other
band, in Cincinnati, Ohio, a popular movement
bat arisen to rednoo tho prico of lager beer
from five to three cents a glass, and the Volks-
blatt, an influential German paper of that city,
urges the beer drinkers to demand snd insist on
their rights. Tbo hrewers, however, eiaim that,
as a ktg bill* ore hundred glasses, and oosts
i- AO, the profits, at three cents a glass, would
not be snffirient to psy expenses.
Tee Sutz Canal—M. sm Lxsrxra’ Ayxkokd.
When M. d. Leasept sought assistance of Eog
land in his Snrx Canal scheme. Lord Palmerston
persistently gave him tbo oold shoulder, and
when the foreign secretary spoke of lbs enter-
pri.e as being fettered with physical difficulties
whioh would prove to be Insurmountable, Eeg
hah espitaltsts generally refused to do anything
towards raising the requisite amount of money.
Of the sixteen million pounds expended cn the
canal twelve millions were furniebed by France,
snd now that tbo project has turned on* to be
suooessful, M. do Leaaepa, who virtually con
trols it, makes Englishmen pay roundly for
their leek of enthusiasm and foresight. Any
legal questions which come np in connection
with the company ore pnt into French courts,
and English shipowners engaged in Irado with
the East are consequently very apt to find them
•elves st s loss for any remedy against what
they may consider unjust decisions. For up
wards of a year now the canal does havo been
charged upon the gross and not npon the net
tonnage, and this has been equivalent to a rise
of fifty per cent, in those dues. This oosts
Eogland dear, for ont of every hundred ships
going through the canal, seventy-nine fly the

According to the correspondent of the Lon

Fat* of Louisiana Decided;
According to the noon telegrams yesterday
the President baa determined to beck the Kel
logg usurpation with the entire military and
civil power of the United State! Government.
Hie seal to beck this detestable outrage and
•windle on the people cf Louisiana, far outrana
the conscience-struck timidity of his infamous
tocL So well does Kellogg know—so deeply
does he feel that he ia guilty of a damning fraud
on free government and the verdict of the peo-
plo at the polls, that be haa evidently been shak
ing in his shoes for fear that Grant wonld drop
him, or at leaat give him a doubtful and hesi
tating support. Bat the Cabinet permits its
secret proceedings to be heralded by telegraph
all over the country to rewnre the cowardly
usurper. The Cabinet wonders why he ahonld
hesitate a moment to call npon the Federal
Government for a United Slates military force
to pnt the people of Louisiana nnder foot, and
tells him In advance what it will do when each
eall is mode.
The New York Sun of last Friday, considering
the attmallon in Louisiana, makes the following
saggeetion to Geo. Grant of a timely retreat
from his indefensible polloy. Says that paper:
Lit Hnj Back Oct!—Under the Grant policy
Louisiana haa drifted into civil war. And why ?
In ooDsequenoe of a split in the Itepablic.n
party in that State last fall, and the defection of
Gov. Warmolh and a large body of his friends,
Louisiana, for the first time since reconstrco-
tion, had an honest and fair election. The re
sell was the defeat of Kellogg, the Graot candi
date for Governor, and the success of McEcery,
the Fusion nominee, by fall ten thousand ma
jority.
As Governor Woraoth hod been Influential
in effecting this remit, and as Brother-in law
Casey had a long standing quarrel with War-
moth, the President of oonrae took sidea with
Casey, and determined to pnt Kellogg In the
Exeeutivo obalr and keep MoEoery ont of it.
And to this end he got Darrell, the disgraoed
District Court Judge, to enter a decree in fa
vor of Kellogg, and then ordered Emory, the
aapple little oo'onel in command of the troops
In that military department, to enforce this de
cree nt the point of the bayonet.
This deoree is the pivot on which the whole
case tnrns. Bnt for ita promnlgation by Durell
audits enforcement by. Emory ths verdict of
the ballot boxes of last Novembar wonld have
prevailed, and McEnery wntrid now be the un
disputed Governor of tbo State. To this effeot
was the unanimous decision of the Judiciary
Committee of the Failed States Senate, and of
a large majority of its Committee on Privileges
and Elections.
Having (has plunged Louisiana into civil
oommotioa to gratify a vulgar, sneaking, thiev
ing carpet-bag relative of the President, what
is now the duty of the Administration ? Evi
dently it is to back straight ont of tbiB most dis
graceful quarrel, eall off Its dogs, and leave law
and deoenoy to have tbelr due oonrse.
For tbo Bake of sustaining Casey the Admin
istration has etained the soil of Lonisiana with
blood. The exoitement in that State, so need
lessly provoked, has risen to fever heat, snd
may spread to other Stales now writhing under
tbo heels of carpet-bag usurpation, and soon we
may see the whole South in n flame.
Is it wise to enoonnter these perils to gratify
the spites acd indulge the caprices of one of
Gi n Grant's norm roas relatives?
Will the administration pause ?
The news of to-day famishes a characteris
tic reaponso from an administration so despotio
in its temper, and so ignorant of everything
which pertains to government exeept mere mil
itary subordination, as to suppose that any oth
er peace than that of the mere temporary tri
umph of brute force over law and liberty can bo
accomplished by the bayonet. Force embodies
his whole ideal of government, and however
mployed it is equally ifScacicm in maintain
ing peace.
Bat this business, although it may issue in
the practical rain of Louisiana, is not to be
bronght to a conclusion by mere force, inde
pendent of the principles of law and justice
It cannot fail, in some form or other, eventually
to be bronght to the test of law, and every State
in tbo Union msy as well give np its local inde
pendenoe as a practical faroe, when ibe Federal
Exoontivo shall be sustained in anoh a oonrae as
that adopted by Grant in Lonisiana.
The Overthrow of Krpnbllcan Gov
ernment la Louisiana.
Wo find the following ringing article under
this bead in the Herald of Friday. It Is as
olear as crystal and direct os a rifle ball, and
shows what the publio sentiment of the North
ontside the degraded circles of Bsdical partisan
ship and liek spittle loylty thinks of the Lonis
iana Iniquity.
We commend the bold and eloquent ntter-
anoes of the Herald to those Democratic admir
ers and oalogists of Grant in this State, who
are endeavoring to weaken the force of publio
indignation against him, for his many and griev
ous sins against right and justice, and the inter
ests and feelings of the Southern people. Says
the Herald:
The overthrow of the regularly elected gov
ernment in Louisiana, through the aid of Fede
ral bayonets, is prodnoing its legitimate results
in disorder, riots and bloodshed thronghont the
State. A severe fight took place yesterday, at
St. Martinsville, between the oitizena and Kel
logg's police, and serions disturbance oocnrred
in New Orleans. Some foolish yocth fired a
pistol at the usurper; bnt, fortunately for the
good name and cause of the people, without
fatal result. When the administration at
Washington prostituted the United States
Army to the work of driving from power the
legitimate amhorities of the State of Lonisiana
and installing the minority catd.dstes in their
plaoe, the people of New Orleans, compelled
to choose between massacre and submission,
yielded their liberties to preserve their lives.
Their oily was in the hands of federal troops :
their halls of legislation were filled with armed
men snd surrounded by artillery j their Oonrts
were broken np at the point of the bayonet;
their public officers were seized snd osnfined
on tho authority of orders issued by a debauch
ed United States Judge and executed by an un-
scrnpnlons United States Marshal. Tho Presi
dent, advised by a partisan Attorney General,
approved and endorsed the acts of the usurpers,
reoogmzsd the Kellogg gang as the regular
State government, and refused to allow any ap
peal from bis arbitrary deolsion. If the people
of Now Orleans bad then executed the law on
the revolutionists and meted ont to them the
punishment they deserved, the streets of the
city would bays been swept by United States
artillery, and men, women and children wonld
have been the victims of a general massacre.
The citizens weighed the cost of asserting their
rights and declined to pay so heavy a prioe.
They trusted that timo and the peaceful bnt
strong expression of indignation that arose
fiom all parts of the State would secure their
liberties from further outrage and would at last
restore to them those constitutional rights of
whioh they had been robbed. \J
Tbo forbonranoe of the people of New Orleans
was applauded by their fellow countrymen
throughout tho Union. The rebellion of the
Sonth had loft behind it wonnds too deep and
memories too painfull to suffer our citizens to
look calmly npon a renewal of civil strife. The
Sonth generally felt that the past needed atone
ment, and knew that any resistance, even to
federal tyranny, wonld be cruelly used to the
iDjary of the Southern States. Bat the events
of the past few weeks in Lonisiana render it
daubtfnl whether the pat ent endnranoe of the
people of New Orleans will sclfise to avert from
the State the evils of civil commotion. The
Kellogg usurpation, emboldened by the sneoess
of its first crime against the laws and the con
stitution, is seeking to render its power absolute
all over the State. The iguennt negroes,
rendered brave by the discovery that the United
States Army is at their back, are prepared to
aid ia any outrages the Kellogg whites msy
prompt. Kellogg and his associates have there
fore resolved to override the popular will in
•vary parish, snd to place creatures of their
own in every public effioe. Appointments
ore made without any pretence of au
thority. and the hired ruffians know
the ''Metropolitans,” an armed foroo created
in New Orleans in violation of liw, and com
posed of all the thieves and cut-throats whose
knives aro at the servioo of any one who can
pay for them, ore sent from parish to parish to
make war npon tho people, if necessary, to
drive ont the legal authorities and to install the
Kellogg appointees. With a characteristic cow
aidice tho whits ruffians prompt the negroes to
toko a prominent part in the fighting, and hencs
the troabis is faot Meaning the terrible aspect
of a war of races. Already one tearful missarre
has occurred snd the unfortunate blacks have
suffered the most severely, their white promp
ters leaving them to their fate. In the parish
of Hr. Martins a state of ciril war actually ex
ists, snd s regular battle between the New Or
leans ont-throats snd the negroes on one aids
and the citiaena of St. Martins on the other side
is imminent St- Martinsville is In a state of
siege. We reed of the throwing ont of pickets,
of the arrival of recruits sad retuforeemeou,
of the bloekade of the Court-house snd of other
military movements, just ss if s state of war
actually existed.
Do the American people pause to reflect npon
the fatal oonsequenoes of this condition of
society in one of the sovereign States of the
Cnion ? Do they persuade themselves that the
liberties of the people of Lonisiana eon be
stripped from them, th-t the legally elected offl.
cere of the Lonisiana State government ran be
driven from power at the point of the bayonet
and the liberties and rights of other communi
ties and other States be yet preserved? Do
they picture to themselves the horrors of a war
of races, or imagine that in the event of a con
flict between the whites and blacks cf Louisiana
the scenes that wonld follow could be oonfioed
to one State of the Union ? The ooeuneaoee
in Louisiana to-d.y are fraught with danger
to the peace of the Union and to the lives of
hundreds of thousands of innooent persona.
The only hope of safety ilea in the oontinued
patience and endurance of the unhappy
people of that oppressed State. They may
possibly be called npon to endure nearly four
years of tyranny and outrage, bnt even that
will be better than a contest the extended evils
of whioh no person can foresee. The proba
bility is that the ruffians who now riot ia usurp
ed power in Louisiana will before long quarrel
among themselves and aid in their own de-
strnctlon. The same remit baa been seen be
fore in that State. At all events, the troubles
of Louisiana—aud let ns hope of the whole
Sonth—will at least end with the present Presi
dential term, and it msy be better to bear them
to tbs close than to invite worse evils. 'What
ever ean be pesoefolly and legally done to
thwart the designs of the Kellogg usurpation,
and to protect the rights of the Commonwealth,
should be resorted to; bnt violence and blood
shed will only entail greater suffering on the
people, while It may cause the iron heel of Fed
eral tyranny to press with yet more cruel foroe
npon the neck of the unhappy State.
The Illinois Raureaa Law.
The new railroad law of Illinois, intended to
prevent unjust discrimination snd overcharges
on passenger fares and freights by railroad
companies, oontains (ssys the New York Bun)
some stringent provisions. In the case of a
verdict for the people In any trial nnder this
sot, the corporation involved will be liable to a
flue between the snms of $1,000 and $5,000 for
the first offense, and In an increased ratio for
subsequent offenses, the maximum penalty In ■
•ingle case being fixed at $2,000. As tbs au
thority of a Legislators to make laws regulating
the management of railroad lines In the matter
of charges has been a subject of discussion, a
recent declson of the Supreme Coart of the
United States in the ease of Olentt agtinst Fond
da Laa ooanty, Wis., bsoomes of interest from
its relation to this snbjeot. This deo'sion at-
eerts as beyond all controversy or qneition that
ail railroads ore public highwajs, having ne «x
istenoe save as such. It declares that: "No
mBl'er who is tbs agent, the fnnotion perform,
ed is that of the State. Though the ownership
is private the use is public." The oourt further
says that, though all persons may not put their
own ears npon the road and nse their own mo
tive power, this “has no bearing npon the ques
tion whether the road is a publio highway. It
bears only upon the mode of nse, of whioh the
Legislators is exolnsive judge." This decision
by the highest jadloial anthority in the land es
tablishes the principle that a Legislature has
very comprehensive powers in relation to ths
management of railroad lines within ths limits
of the State it represents.
A STRANGE ELEVATOR SUIT.
Dean Richmond's Non Fighting ibe Illi
nois Central Railroad.
A Dubuque letter to the Inter-Ocean of the
SOtn ult. said: Among the other institutions of
this city, and one which invariably attracts the
attention cf the traveler, whether be oomes by
river or rail, is the large grain elevator near
the depot of tbo Illinois Central railway. There
is a pecnliar history connected with the Btrue-
tnre, and one which, in (hese times of railway
excitement, msy not be nninteresting. The el
evator was bought in 1SG0 by Dean Richmond,
who was then one of the magnates in the oon-
trol and management of the New York Central
railway. There has not been a bushel of grain
in the elevator since DCS, nor has there been a
prospset of there being sny in it since that
time, Bata visitor will find, at all hours of the
day, woikmen prepared to handle any grain
that may arrive.
The boilers are filled with water, and in the
farnoaes underneath is kindling and fuel, ready
to ignite at any moment. The engine and ill
the machinery sre oiled for instant motion. The
preparations are anch as to indnoe the belief
that the proprietors hid only stopped business
for a day or two, snd were about to start again,
lint still the years roll on, and smoke never is
sues from the ehimuey, the firee are not lighted,
the st< am is never raised—only a oonstant,
watchful readiness. There is a reason for this
readiness, snd for the silonoe and inactivity
which brood over the plaoe.
Dean Biohmond had a bod, whose biblti and
character were not entirely in aocord with his
father's wishes. He was allowed to labor and
shift for his own means of support. He became
a conductor on his father’s railway. Mr. Rich
mond told him that the least infnetion of the
rales of the oompany would insure his immedi
ate removal, and especially was he warned
against allowing any person, whether a friend
or not, to ride without showing a ticket or a
pass, or paying the neoessary fare. Be bid
been employed in this oapsoity for some time,
snd there bad been nooomplaint, when one day
Dean Richmond himself beeame a passenger
npon his son's train. The oondnetor. while
collecting tickets and fares, came to the old
railroad mignate, when the following dialogue
ocoorred:
1 Ticket, sir 1"
Ticket? Get ont! I am the president of
tins road. I don't bny tlokets."
That makes no difference. Its against or
ders for me to allow anybody to ride without he
I lays his fare, presents a tieket, or shows a pus.
i dome, hurry up.”
“Weil, sir, you know who I am, and yon know
that I am entitled to ride on thie rood free. I
oonld make ont a pass, but I haven't any blanks.
Yon go on. It Is all right."
“Bee bere, old gentleman, it mtkei no differ
ence who yon.are; give me a ticket, show a
pass, pay your fare, or get oft this train!”
“Hnmph! young man, yon are getling mighty
arbitrary. If yen don’t go on abont yonr busi
ness Til have you discharged.”
The yonng oondnetor made no reply, bnt gave
a vigorous poll npon tbe bell ropo. As the train
checked its speed, and the father saw that he
was about to be treated like any other passen
ger, and was roally liable to be set down beside
the track midway between stations, hs palled
oat his wallet and paid his fare. This little epi
sode gave him a new insight into his son's char
acter, and be forthwith commenced easting
about tor some business ooonpation for him.
Tho two, while on a 'Western trip, came to Du
buque, and the father purchased the elevator
for the sou, and gave his check for the requi
site amount to carry on the business.
But in connection with tbe porehase was an
other transaction, in which Mr. Richmond and
the Dubuque and Sioux City railway were the
parties. The corporation was Dew' and was
anxious to sell its bonds. In consideration of
his purchasing $100,000 of the bonds of the
oompany at 1.02) the railway oon traded to send
all throngh gram passing over their line into
tbe elevator, and to pay one oent per bushel
far the privilege. The oontraot was a good one
for the elevator, snd by its terms was to con
tinue in force for fifteen years from August 22,
i860. It was also advantageous to the railway,
for the seeming indorsement of their road by
Mr. Richmond in his purchase of the securities
above par enabled them to sell all their bonds
in New York at a high figure.
Until the leasing of tbe Dnbnqse and Sioax
City railway by the Illinois Central, in 1867, the
oontraot had been carefully observed by the
parties making it. Bat after the first few weeks
from the advent of the new management no at
tention was paid to the oontraot, and the grain
from over the Dnbuqae and Sioax City line was
transferred across the river without passing
through the elevator. The business of Rich
mond A Jackson was damaged, was in faot de
stroyed, for this was the only eonroe from which
they oonld expect or obtain patronage. They
were, and have been at all times, ready and
willing to perform their part of the agreement,
and henoe it ia that the e’evstor is kept in a
ooeditian to start at a moment’s hotioe.
On several occasions the Illinois Central bos
switched cars at tho sieve’or with the expecta
tion and hope (hat it might not be found in
running order, so that the proprietora might be
charged with s violation of their part of the con
trast, bat *.o no purpose. AU efforts to compro
mise the differseces between the parties have
failed. The elevator firm have brought several
suits against ths Illinois Central for breach of
oontraot, and have recovered judgments in all
the totions whioh have been tried.
The first judgment, for $5,000, the railroad
oompany paid; the seeand judgment, for $59,-
000, they appealed, and the third salt, for $500,-
000, has not yet been tried. Tbs attorneys for
Richmond A Jackson, the plaintiffs, are oanfi
dent of ultimately obtaining deeWaae in their
favor fat all thee* Basse, and of collecting the
amounts recovered. The oontraot will not ex
pire until 1875; and in the future, sa in the
post, they will eUim one etnt npon every bosh-
el of grain passing through from the line of the
Dubuque snd Sioax City rood.

ths Kellogg usurpation is vorb^tnuhed Dan
ever,'and mdH goto any-fength stA authority
to sustain it
On Saturday evening the President hid a long
oonsnlution with General Sherman. Attorney
General Williams and Seoretary Robeson, at
whieh the Now Orleans trouble was thoroughly
discussed and high handed measures were sug
gested, to whioh the Presidenf attentively lis
tened and will probably" ba esrried ont before
the close of the present week.
Tbe administration is unable to nnderatand
why Mr. Kellogg does not make a requisition
tor federal troops, as It |a claimed he has a per
fect right to do so in the absenoe of the Leg-
ielatnre, to maintein peaee and assist the Civil
authorities in administering the law.
It Is said that he is the proper Judge to de
termine whether then is a qondltlon of aooiety
requiring the' interference of the army, and
that any aid he might require would be promptly
famished, so for as the President is oonoerned.
It is not the President’s intention to taka any
enereetie action until this requisition is made
by Kellogg, end it is hoped he will make s de
mand witnout farther delay.
As soon as a requisition is made, the Presi
dent will iesne a proclamation in the most posi
tive language, admonishing the citizens of
Louisiana to peaoe, deposing the McEnery gov
ernment and proclaiming Kellogg si tbe lawfol
Governor, aud annouueiug the intention of tbe
Executive to sustain Kellogg with tbe whole
military foroe of the oountry, if neoessary.
This proclamation is to be acoompsnied with
sn order to send alt available troops to report to
Gen. Emory at New Orleans
The proclamation will be in such language
that it will be susoeptible of no donbtfnl mean
ing, and it will convey, as plain as words can,
the determination of the President as above
set forth.
The notion proposed, i^jsutaid, meets the
hearty approval of .the Attorney General. | <

The President's Position on Louisiana
Affairs.
Washtsotov, May 12.—Much having recent

pective notion of the President on the troubles
of Louisiana, It may be arid that ho has re
ceived no telegram from Kellogg tinea last Fri-
day, when the oondiUon of affairs was repre
sented aa eomewhai improved. While there is
no doubt that the President would intervene to
protect ths Btite from domestic violence, should
the Governor make application to him for
that purpose, and provided the facts
the earn should warrant’ the proceeding,
it is, nsvertha’en, the hope of the President,
an he expressed himself to a friend to-night,
that all disturbance! will soon oeaae, snd that
such contingency as that contemplated by the
Oonatitntion wonld ocenr. But if it unfortu
nately ahonld, he would take care to act clearly
within the limit of the Constitution and iawa.

A JEAL5C? He..EiND CUBED WITH LlQUOEIOE
Watzb. —There is a min in this city, says the
Titusville (Pa.) Herald, who is so affectionately
fond of his wife that he is jealous if a man
looks within forty-five degrees cf the direction
in which she may happen to be. The other
day a gentleman spoke to her, and he immedi
ately threatened sntoTde. Hia wife was dis
patch.,i for a to-lie of poison, whioh she had
pnt up' at the druggists, consisting of a little
water, colored with liquifies, and bottled, with
a glaring poison label ontside. VThen he threat
ened to take some of it, and actually poured
it into a wine-glass, she screamed for help, and
ran into another room, where the conld wateh
him through the key-hole, snd saw him coolly
open the window and throw it cut. She then
rnshed back, apparently frantic with grief, and
implored him not to do the rash deed. He
merely pointed at the gloss, aud laying down on
tbe floor, began to kick ont his legs like a jamp
ing jaok. Ehe told him she wa? determined to
share hi? fate, and swallowed the rest ot tbe
1 q-.orice wa'er, wherenpon he became really
frightened, called the neighbors, confessed that
he only shammed, and amid that if she only
survived ha never wonld tronble her again.
Then she explained the rase, and he was so
mortified he tried to bny np the silence of tbe
neighbors, bnt the story was too good to keep.
He is thoroughly cured.
