arid Marshall,. (Mr. Wheeler.- ,
expressing
no dissent thereto) we find the-following .
language: ° .• '
We understand the
_committee to bel

In another part, of the 'reOrt . ,, Messrs.
While Seerci.io
,
have hdd a'protier aelide_of thedanger to
the w kale ' country, which, - might. result
from allowing such extraordinary-power
to be held and used ;b - 3 , a body so noto
riously corrupt as the• Louisiana Return
ingboard is known to . be,
,mode a sep
arate report portraying with wonderful
clearness just the' condition of • affairs
that exista tl-day. They say
"In our judgement this' condition of
things is fraught with' the 'gravest 'peril
to the whole country. That-the people
of any. State should be unwilling tc.i'de
termine by peaceful and legal means the
result of their elections, ond that_the
Preeident should be - . compelleeto inter
pose the military force of the govern
ment to prevent civil war, is a terrible
misfortune. But the evil goes much fur
ther. Upon the elections in Louisiana,
as in other States, depends the right to
their seat,of• Senators and Representa
tives elect, who are to aid in making laws
for the who:e country, and the choice of
Presidential electors - upon ;"whose vote
may' depend , the title to office of the
President ot. the United States himself.
,No party in thelJnited States will like to
submit to a result 'decided by the votes.
of electors diosen. by such means. *
There is in our judgment the greatest
danger that these elements may enter in
to the next national' election' to so great
an extent that it may have the real ex
pression of the will 'of the, people in
doubt. In such caseoti_appeal to force,
like that which 'has bftrit.triade in Louisi
ana, must result in ciyirwar, spreading
throughlut the entire country." -
Thus spike Wm. A. Wheeler, one of
the Representatives of the proud.Ew riro
State; a politician certainly, but still with
sufficient honesty and manlineSi to con
demn. the infamous practices by which
the State of Louisiana had been kept
since the close of the war,, in a worse'
than African bondage. „ •
Then, Mr. Wheeler looked .
', at the situ-•
ation..lmpartially. Noiv, that heiltas 'a
selfish personal interest in , the matter,
his views have chan'ged and we find him
saying, that;
"Congress
• "Congress cannot 'investigate whether
LouiSiana haS'gone for Tilden Or Hayes.; .
the action of • the Returning, Board on
this point hai been final and Conclusiv' ,
•
• Doe's Mk. Wheeler suppose that J. MO;
ison Wells, of whom Gen. Ppil. Sheridan
said, "he has not ona honest man for his
friend in all Louisiana," has become hod
est and trustworthy in the short two
years ? Has the spirit of
,"reform with
the party" . so thorougbli , permeated
through all its elements,as to have feach
ed even the members of a' Louisiana
Returning Board The 'chances are all
opposed to each a change. Two years
ago the only question at stake was the
control of a single State: Now, theism is
the perpetuation of Republican ascen
&my in ihe United Statee or its utter
and-coMplete overthrow. Neither Mr,
iliCheeler nor any lother intelligent mem;
ber of the XLIVtIr congress for a mo
s
ment,supposes that Wells and Anderson '
have forsaken their evil ways, but Mr. W.
sees the Vice Presidency, which fraud

For more thaws year pastit,has ben,
known that a 'engdgetnent ;of marriage,
had been made be tween ; Mr. Jiimea Gor,
_.
don. Bennet, •of the N.. Y. Herald, and,
Miss Ida May, a young • lady of one
of the first fatniHes of New Yoit City.
The marriage wad to have 'taken place
last summer and it is laid on one ocea- .
eion, the day
.and hour were 'fixed and
only tha ptesence of the groom. was
necessary to.finish the matter. After that
it is said Dr. May, the lady's father, had
•
refused his sanction to the union, tkn ac-
Count of the young gentleuian's4l.abits
,and that he had been put on probation
far six months - oi a year. Failing to work
out his probation the parties have been
•
ti l t cross puyposedjor. a long time until
lennett was assaulted by Frederick May,
brother of thelady, in front of the Union
club room on Thursday afternoOn, Jaa.
4th. 'May 'prod u ced .a ,tiorse whip and
struck Bennett oite r the face 'several times
•.
drawing- blood each stroke and-then used '
his fiat knocking' him down •and , &rig=
ging him about until they were separated
by the by-standers. _
As a fesult; and to wipe out the dis
graceof
. a public horsewhipping,, Ben
nett Challenged May and the paities met
on Monday, Jan. Bth, at Marydell, a small
railroad station just on the line between
Delsiware and Maryland. The arrange
ments were all kept so secret,that all that
is positively known is that shots were
exchanged and• May was wounded.
Bennett returned to New York but
his present whereabouteare unknown to
the officers of .the law who are anxious to
'find him. • • • • • -
,The reports d May's *hereabouts and
the nature and extent of his wounds are
so.coritlicting. as' to be unworthy of any
confidence. - --•
In the meantime the Neiv:Yotk Bourts
have been , trying to get at partic - plitra
.
which, to ba.s a e cithinal prosecu t ion.
•
Dr Phelpi,who . is supposed to.have act
ed isßen nett's friend refused "to anawet
the questions. of the- Grand Jury-and NO
committed for contempt. p•
That all the' parties may be foußd and
dealt with strictly, according to law is
the earnest wish of, all good citizens,
LATER-:Mr. James Gordon Bennett,'
accompanied' by his sister, 'Miss Jeaneye
Bennett., sailed in the steamship
-City of
Richmond for Liverpool 'Saturday. Mr.
Bennatt sailed down the batin de Her.

he has been -cloncealed for several days, -
and intercepted , the steamship oft Sandy
