Tfil Dejaoerstio party have a small
majr it j in the Lower House of the
Legislators of tbia State. Their as
eeodeucy there baa revived their old
domineering apiiit to aueh a degree
that they already ahow the inclination
la crush oat everything that is opposed
to the ui. The j Lave passed resolutions
condemning Grant, Sheridan and other),
and particularly the Republican parry
in general. If they get control of the
nation, they will pay the rebel debt;
tbey will pension the rebel soldiers;
they will wipe out the new amend
ments to the United States Constitu
tion, and what tbey Will do with the
colored people the good Lord only
knows.
Tub number of confederates elected
to '.be next Democratic Congress seems
to trouble souie of the northern Demo
cratic organs, as well it may. But here
ie a fact that as yet baa not received
sufficient attention. The Utic(N. Y.)
Observer, in endeavoring to wiggle out
of this mess, estimates that there will
be 175 Democrats in the next llon-e of
Representatives, and it will require 88
of these to make a majority, whereas
there are only 82 confederates in the
lower House. New let the reader re
flect npon the fact for a moment. Here
are within six of enough confederates
to dictate to the Democrats in the
House what they shall do. A majority
bring 88, the confederates have only to
hunt op 6 copperhead in the House to
be able to govern every caucus decision
of the Democrats io that body. If
they should stand together, as there
can be but little doubt they will, they
can elect their own candidates for offi
cers of the Home, and command every
important committee. Tiiis state of
things has been accomplished quietly,
but with all the success of a secret
conspiracy. The Democratic party
stands responsible for it to the fullest
exteut, be the consequences what they
may. As for any moderation on the
part of these confederate members of
Congress it is idle to expect it. They
bave well-known ends io ;iew,and they
will not hesitate to win them. .WM

New Orleans, Feb. 6. The follow

proposition for an adjustment of the
troubles in this State :
t HEREA8, It is desirable to adjust
the difficulties growing nut of the gen
eral election in this State iu 1872, the
action of the Returning Board, in de.
claring and promulgating the results of
general election in the month of No
vember last, and the organization of the
House of Representatives on the 4tb
.day of January last, such adjustment
being deemed neoossaiy to the re-establishment
of peace and order in the
State ; now, therefore, the undersigned
members of the onservative party,
aud claiming to have been elected mem.
bers of the House of Representatives,
and their certificates of election bate

ing Board, hereby severally agree to
sutmit their claims to seats in tbe
House of Representatives to the award
and arbitrament of George F. Hoar,
William A. Wheeler. William P. Frye,
and Samuel S. Marshall, members of
the Congressional Committee now in

ired to exam.iie and determine the same
upon the equity of the several cases,
aud when such award shall be made we

same, and aueh of us as may become

tives undor this arrangement hereby
severally agree to sustain by our influ
ence aud votes the joint resolution here

mil their claims to the foregoing award
and arbitrament, aud iu all n.epe3ts to

ally agree that, immediately upon tbe
adoption of said report, they will vote
for tbe following resolution! :
" Whereas, Doubts bave existed and
still exist as to the legal results of the
election in the State in November, 1872;
and
Whereas, It is alleged, and by a
large portion of tbe people of this State
believed, that the result of the elec
tion for members of the House of Rep-
sentatives and for tbe Treasurer in No
vember last was illegally determined
and promulgated by the Returning
Board ; and
" Whereas, These doubts, allegations,
and beliefs bave tended greatly to dis
turb tbe public mind and unsettled con
fidence and injuriously to affect the ma
terial interests o: the State ; and
44 Whereas, It is deemed necessary to
tbe welfare of the State that an adjust
ment of the foregoing difficulties should
be adjusted ; therefore,
"Resolved by the General Assembly of
the Stale of Louisiana, That said As.
seoibly, without approving the same,
will not disturb tbe present State gov
ernment, claiming to have been elected
tn 1872, and kuown as the 'Kellogg'
government, or seek to impeach the
Governor for any past official acts ; and
that henceforth will accord to said Gov.
ernor all necessary and legitimate sup.
port in maintaining the laws and ad.
vancing the peace and prosperity of the
people of this State ; and( that tbe
House of Representatives, as to its
ueo- bers, as constituted under the award
of George F. Hoar, Wm. A. Wheeler,
U illiaui P. Frye and Samuel S. Mar
shall, shall remain without change, ex.
eept by the resignation or death of
members, until a new general election,
and tbat the SeLate as herein recog
nized shall also remain unchanged, ex
cept so far as tbat body may make
chauges iu contests.
New Orleans, Feb. 7. To-night
Gov. Kellogg held a protracted consul
tation touching tbe compromise with tbe
Committee. He remains warmly in favor
of au adjjstmeut on the terms already
published, and professes to be confident
that a settlement will be madeonTues.
day next.
He states that were it not for the
clique now opposing compromise a sat.
ist'actory solution of existing difficulties
would have been arrived at months ago.
He says, rery truely, that if tbe Dem
ocrats Lad accepted the situation in
1873, and allowed their Senators to
take their seats then, eleven of them
would still bold over, and they, in ad
dition to the Conservatives elected in
1S74, would bave made the present
Senate largely Democratio.
If tbe compromise proposition is not
agreed to by tbe Conservatives the Con
gressional Committee will return to
Washington on Taesday, Should the
resolution be adopted ther w II remain
until the detail of the Compromise
bave been definitely settled.
Tbe compromise is tbe general topie
of conversation to-day among the poll
ticiana and business meo. The ladies
tiosa srs tbat tbe vote to-morrow hi tbe
Conservative caucus will be very close,
tbe members apparently being aboot
equal for and against the compromise.
It la understood tbat not a member of
tbe present Kellogg Legislature will
yield ; consequently tbe proposed ad'
jttstme&t is generally legarded as iiu
practicable.
It is understood that the ' ongression
al ( ominittee sre unanimous iu the
opinion that the action of the Return
ing Board was illegal, and that the
Conservatives elected a majority of the
members of the Legislature at the late
election. The Congressional Commit
tee will conclude be investigation to
morrow, and will leave at once for
Washington.
Gen. Sheridan returned to New Or
leans from Jackson, Mississippi, to
night. He was accompanied by Gov
Ames, of tbat State. The visit of tbe
Governor has no political significance.
THE British ship Euzine, boand from
North Shields for Aden, was destroyed
by fire iu tbe South Atlantio in August
last. The crew took to the boats,
which soon separated Irnni each other.
The occupants of ue boat lost all their
provisions and water, and after endui
ing the pangs of hunger foi tome time,
drew lots to decide which of them
should be killed to preserve the lives of
his companions. The lot fell npon an
Italian sailor, who was killed and cut
up. Only a few hours afterward the
others were picked up by a Dutch ship,
Java packet. Tbe BatavU Handels
blad, of December 3, says : ' For sev
eral days they bsd eaten uolhiug, and
had endeavored to quench thirst by sea
water, so that one of tbem, wholly ex
hausted, strove U stab himself in de
spair. He was however, restrained by
tbe others, who proposed tbat, consid
enng all the circumstances, it should
be decided by lot which of the six
should be tbe first victim to save bis
comrades for a while from death by
hunger. In conformity with this plan
six pieces of wood of varying lengths
were cut ; tbe mate held them in his
band, aud each of tbe men drew out
one ; be who drew the longest was to
fall. Francis Shufus, an Italian, was
the unfortunate whom the lot aligned
for it. Meekly and without a murmur
he submitted, and so be save up fie i
ghost under the knife of hix hungry
fellows. Some hours afterward, and
when tbey had just commenced their
horrid meal, a sail was sighted on the
horizon, whither course was immediate
ly shaped. On the evening of the
same day, Aug. 31, tbe five rescued
persons, completely exhausted, reached
tbe deck of tbe Java packet. Captain
Trappen and his subordinates immedi
ately did all they could, by careful
treatment, to make tbe five unfortunates
forget as much as possible the misery
suffered. Yesterday they were brought
here, naturally destitute of everything,
and are living in a sailors' lodging
house near the wharf. Their names
are James Archer, second mate; Au
gust Muller, Victor Sandstotn, Manus
Scbutt, and Alexander Vermoelin, sail
ors. Tbeir remainiug comrades in tbe
two other boats bave, sccording to a
Lloyd's telegram, arrived safe at St
Helena, without accidents."
Tue American Newspaper Adver
tising Agency of Ueo. P. Rowcll &
Co., New York, is the only establish
ment of the kind in the United States
which keeps itself persistently before
the people by advertising in nevspipers.
They evidently receive their reward,
for we bave it from a reliable source
tbat advertising orders issued by them
for tbeir customers bave exceeded three
thousand dollars a day since the com
meueeuient of the year, ami tht is not
a very good year for advertising either.
