corner of Burgundy street; saw two men
come together, aint saw a thirl; one of
them took hold of deceased and tried to
pill him toward the river; deceased wished
to go away from them; he pulled away and
they all went into the street; a third per
son came up with a pistol auQ shot de
s, ceased; do not know the third man's name;
know him by sight; saw the deceased do
nothing; I saw the man who did the shoot
ing under arrest afterward; he is an elderly
man. gray hair; ho wore a grey f&lt hat:
one of the other men was tall and wore a
Ii badge on the right lappet of his coat; did
) not pay much attention to the other mi-n;
I there was no disturbance in the street pre
vious to the shooting; the first thing that
attracted my attention was two men hav
ing hold of deceased, dragging hits along,
when a third party came up and shot do
'. ceased; that party was a slim man, about
five feet, six inches high; I saw smoke
when the shot was fired; after the firing
attempted to escape; the other two men
were arrested at once; these two men wore
b 1adges, the badges were white with black
letters.
1, Charles F. Huston-I dined at Victor's
restaurant at half-past four o'clock Tues
day evening; while eating, I was informed
by some one that it was to my interest
r, and personal wsfety to get within the
limits of the police force of Dryades street;
I immediately finished my dinner, and
started for Dryades street, after having
mentioned to my friend, the deceased,
that he had better take my advice and do
ay as I was doing, and get within the lines;
his reply was that he was not recognized
I! as a member of the House of Representa
tives by the so-called House now holding
a session on Royal street, known as the
Gem IHou-e: I told him there were lively
iv tines, for myself, ahead, and to loik out.
as he was considered one of my friends;
after this conversation I left Victor's, and
went to the corner of Burgundy street,
and 'isit. ta friend, Captain T. H. Jenks;
t during a private conversation, there was
sonie ling-inge which called fort i consid
ralle fee lies, and on noticing the excite
went of my friend I concluded to take a i
promenade on the front gallery; when on 1
S the gallery we discovered some excitement
on the b.anquette near Victor's; on looking
e I retogniA-d Mr. Wheyland and Mr.

that Mr. McCullough shot deceased; I can 1c

ed Mr. Campbell moved that the fol
ud lowing resolution, offered by Senator
rr. Jenks, be referred to a committee of
le- three, with instructions to report by
1e; resolution:
do Resolved, That a committee of three
tt- be appointed by the Chair to wait upon I
sly the Governor, and inform him that the I
%t: Senate has thus far failed to obtain a I
a quorum, and request him to send to
Lid the Senate any communication that he
may have for our consideration.
e Carried.
at The President appointed Senators
Campbell, McMillen and Harris. 1
The committee reported back a se
ut ries of resolutions, as follows:
ke WHEREAs, A conspiracy is on foot I
ag in the city of New Orleans having for 1
en its object the subversion of the execu- t
re tive and legislative departments of the t
existing State government through un- a
lawful combinations, embracing a por
t tion of the members of both houses of
the General Assembly, and through an
appeal to the passions of the turbulent
element in this city; and v
t Whereas, This conspiracy and at- I
0d tempt to excite revolution, menace the t
,a people of this city and State with the (
1, evils of anarchy, turmoil, bloodshed,
to robbery, arson and all the train of
s; crimes which are the unavoidable
id accompaniments of revolution: and a
a- Whereas, The pretended House of
eg Represtntatives assembled over the P
t Gem saloon on Ro}dl street has sought Ri
to conciliate and obtain the support of p
the better class of citizens by the pub- t]
lication of their purposes in regard to ,
certain laws now in force in this State,
s purposes which they are utterly pow
erless to accomplish; therefore, be it o
- Resolved, By the Senate of the
State of Louisi:na, That the action of P
a those members of the Senate who have e'
a remained away from their seats for the al
at past eight days, thus depriving this et
g body of all power to ENA(-r riEOMes, LI
and relieve the people of the State of St
e any real grievances by appropriate T
° legislation, is reprehensible in the
highest degree, and should meet the
severest condemnation of the people oi
of this State. ti
n Resolved, further, That the action w
I- of the members of the House of Repre- ti'
y sentatives who have voluntarily com- na
e bined in an unlawful manner to enact at
° legislation in other places than the w
Y hall of the House of Representatives, at
and who have appealed to the mob ti
a spirit for protection and support, is
unworthy of the position to which
they have been elected, and merits the
disapproval of their constituents. fa
Resolved, further, That we are in f
a favor of the most thorough and efficient cii
1 legislative reform in all existing laws few
whielrnxperience has proven to work of
injury to the rights or property of the of
people of this State, and we heartily S
indorse the recommendations made 1V se
his Excellency the Governor in hii SE
annual message, this day delivered
and read to the House of Represen- pe
tatives. th
I Resolved further, That we favor the gr
reduction of the expenses of the Gen- (10
eral Assembly, and of the executive oil
department of the government, to suth tbh
an extent as to bring them within tie of
means of the people of the State; the to
repeal of all laws creating unuccessari pr
expenditures, and the moditleation of
sny law the abuse of which has in- t
fringed upon the political or personal'A
rights of the citizens of this State so A
as to correct such abuses.tn
Mr. Campbell-Mr. President, I a
have merely to remark on these re- pe
concurrance. What I might have isk
desired myself, perhaps, might have p
been in some respects different, but
at the same time, these resolutions Sit]
include what I believe we all honest- an
ly intend to promise and honestly ho
intend to carry out. AssaSenator
of the State of Louisiana, I say of
openly and publicly, and I thnkm thi
colleagues are in entire accord with ir
me, that I am in favor of the inan- "
guration of every single measure of do'
reform which has beeen promised
to the people by the mob assembledpl
over the Gem maloon on Royal street, res
headed by George W. Carter and a
few Customhouse officials on the Mt
one side, and a few Democratic em
ward politicians 'in the other. The sue
object of those men is not reform, rat
but the transfer of the political of
power of the State. On the one w
hand they desire it to be atranuf'.r
from the hands of the present Statehe
government to the hands of George tro
W. Carter and his ameocates. The Ithi
other branch of the conspiracy de- r
sire to transfer the control of the r
State and city governments from i
1) the hands of Republicans to the
er hands of Democrats of the John T. I
Monroe and July, '66, era. I say I
that we not only intend to adopt all I
ee the measures of reform which they I
n pretend to desire, and have no in- t
he tention of carrying out, but we t
a have the means at our disposal to '
to do so, which they have not. Not r
he only have we the means and the I
disposition to secure the passage of i
rs these reformatory measures, but we c
possess this additional advantage-- (
we can do it without a revolution s
and its usual results-riot, robbery, h
at murder, and arson-which George c
)r W. Carter and his associates intend ii
to intagurate. We can do, without li
these evils, what he promises to do p
" and can only do with them. I wish o
r- t tt i
- to state distinctly, in this connection, c
) what I understand to. be the ele- t]
it ments composing this party of re- a
volutionists. First, a few leading t]
t- Republicans, who desire simply to si
le tiansfer the State government from e:
e the hands of the present authorities g
' to their hands; and, second, a few P
Democratic ward politicians. So far h
C tl
as a revolution is concerned, the ti
y two branches of conspirators are in tl
perfect accord with each other, but oj
t when that shall have been accom- oi
f plished, if it is accomplished at all D
º- their roads diverge. When the re- K
o volution shall have reached a point m
where it will be beyond the power e'
of the Republican conspirators to et
e stay its progress, the Democrats
I propose to throw out of their offices I
e every Republican State, municipal to
e and parochial official, and then pro- fI
s ceed to annul every result of ei
the enforcement of the recon- th
struction l a w a of Congress. e1
That I say boldly here, is the fr
design of the Democratic confreres pl
of these conspirators. I say fur- to
thermore (and I think my assertion
1 will be carried out by the observa
- tion of every Senator present) that fo
not a single Democrat of high la,
t standing, not a single Democrat Pe
who has the welfare of this State
and city at heart, sympathizes with th
these conspirators and indorses sh
their action. While I say this, Sc
Mr. President, I fully recognize the to
fact that a large number of the in
good, influential and respectable tic
citizens of the State of all parties an
feel seriously and sorely the results wi
of excessive taxation and the abuse ha
of certain laws. I, for one, as a ha
Senator, as I said in my seat last th
session, in reply to a question by fei
Senator Thomas, am willing to re- Sc
peal or modify the revenue laws of he
the State so that taxation will be wl
greatly reduced. I am willing to re- m,
(luce the number axgd the fees of the ear
otlicers engaged in the collection of lai
the revenues, so that the expense no
of their collection way be reduced ha
to their minimum. I am willing to ha
provide by law for the reduction to to
a specified and moderate sum o tl
the annual expenses of the General ha
Assembly. I am even willing to go of
further, and amend the registration us
and election laws, so that the ex- of
penditurgis under those laws may niu
bo controlled by the different par- er<
ishes in which the election takes oi
place. lam willing to amend them sel
so far that the commissioners and jgri
supervisors shall be ineligible to of
any office at the election which they no
hold, snd shall be residents of the wil
parishes they are in. Every one sox
of the inensures of reform which an
these revolutionists pretend to de- an
airti in order to secure the moral pr<
support of this community, I un- pra
dertake to say that the Senate of if I
Louisiana, by these resolutions, is lay
pledged to inaugurate without any an<
revolution and withoutany violence. the
While I am willing to do all this, oni
Mr. President, I say distinctly and so
emphatically to George W. Carter pri
and his associate. that I would tern
rather take such steps in defiance ma
of their revolutionary conduct as to
would politically behead me ; that ass
I would rather stand in my place str
here and see them onet from con- cal
trol the legitimate Legislature of bui
e- struments instead, than to take one
e step backward in the course which
m the Legislature and the State gov
he ernment have adopted for the pro- I
r. tection of that class of the people t
ty to which you, sir, belong, did which
ill has elected us as Republicans here. ,
?y I refer to that class of legislative :
a- measures which the excitement and 1
Pe the riots afid the danger through I
oo which we passed at previous periods
At made it necessary for this General
te Assembly to enact, in order to throw 1
of its protecting arm around the t
re colored people of the State. If t
- George W. Carter and his co-con- I
n spirators intend to play into the t
S, hands of the revolutionary Demp- 1
e crate, as I believe they do, in wip- z
d ing from the statute books all those r
at laws which were enacted for the t
to protection of the colored people, in t
h order to throw them back into the t
, condition in which they were when i
a- this Legislature first met here. I d
say, let the consequences be what
g they may, that I will never take a a
o step backward, nor aid them in the
n execution of their ' designs. I am t
e glad to learn, as I do to-day, that some
N persons high in federal position here,
have said that they withdraw from
this conspiracy; that they are satisfied
e that Mr. Carter nleans the betryal of
a the Republican party and the betrayal e
t of the colored people into the hands 14
- of the Democratic mob (not of the fi
l Democratic party) and that they will b
have no further let nor part in the a
t matter. If they continue much long- t
r er in their revolutionary action, I be
lieve that the eyes of all will be open
ed to their designs. To sum up brief- P
ly, I repeat that every reform that G
will lessen in any manner the expendi- t
I hure of the public money, every re- 54
- form that will prevent corruption, b
f every reform thal will tend to lighten t1
- the load of taxation upon the people, j
every reform that will protect them s1
from the abuse of any law, I am
pledged to support; but I am opposed t
to any conspiracy which under the
pretense of aiming at. the reforms, f
aims at the destruction of Republican. I'
ism here, and the trampling under di
foot of all the safeguards which the tc
law has thrown around the colored re
people of the State. al
Mr. Lynch-Mr. President, I ei
think it proper that some action ds
should be taken by the seventeen L
Senators who are meeting from day k,
to day, to make known their views di
in reference to the present condi- of
tion of affairs-not to make pledges o0
and promises, but simply to express
what are our designs, or what we
have in view. The resolutions which wi
have been introduced seem to have ti,
three objects in view. They first re- wi
fer to the absent members of the cii
Senate, and condemn that absence t4
I ecause it prevents from doing that t
whlch it has been proclaimed by the n
mob it was their desire to do. We
are here, sir, ready to act and enact oi
laws that will reform any abuse that tai
mey exist, or correct any evil that in
hasty or improper legislation may en
have created. We are here, I say, b
to act, but our hands are tied by pr
t he absence of these Senators, who
have seen fit to break the quorum
of the Senate, thereby preventing ~
us from giving the State the benefit in
of any modifications that we might vo
miake in laws which may be consid- wJ
ered unjust or utiwise. The action ust
ot these Senatorsin absenting them- an
selves from their seats merite the of
greatest condemnation at the hands m
of the people of Louisiana. I am N.
not prepared to condemn them allh
without a hearing; I do notesay that
some of them are absent without th
any good excuse; but I do say that ha
ani expression on our part of dlisap- ar
proval of their course is eminently tb
proper. If these men desire reform, tO
if they wish to modify any obnoxious
laws, let them take their seats here
and act with us, and not keep v
themselves as they are Dow doing,
out of the jurisdiction of the State,, tha
so that we cannot even efrethe TI
provisions of the constitution to or:
compel their attebdance. Some th
may suppose that we have nothing yE
to do with thoe people who have ~
assembled over a saloon on Royal
street, and organised into what they
call the "House of Ryreuentaaives;" o
but it is proper that we should ex- ra
press ou diumpprobation of their
te course, and we have' done so
Ih in the resolutions now before
r- the Senate. The next clause refers
- to the annual message of Excel
le lency the Governor, in which sev
h eral specified reformatory measures
e. are recommended. We pledge our
'e selves as Senators to take such no
d tion as will secure to the people the
h results of those recommendations.
Is We have been here a week for that
a purpose; we are here to-day for t
N that purpose, and we will be here
e to-morrow for that purpose. If
[f they are not adopted, who are to
blame but those Senators who are
e absent from their seats to-day ? I t
pledge myself to vote for every
measure that has for its object the a
e reduction of taxation-the relief of .
e the people from the burdens which
a they are now laboring under, and
a the restoration of the State of Lou
a isisan to her once prosperous con
I dition. We can make this a pros
t perous and happy State if we try, 2
a and I believe the Senators present
e are ready and willing to do so. If
u these absent Senators do not pre- t
e sent themselves and prove their sin- c
cerity by their Acts, as we have
I done, they should be placed upon
f the record as enemies to the State- A
I enemies to wholesome and wise
a legislation; friendly to confusion,
s friendly to anarchy, friendly to rob
r bery, friendly Po all the train of evils
which follow revolution, when. cut
throats are let loose upon the com- c
munity, and the power of the law is s
paralyzed. I say that they must
come here and act with us in the I
passage of proper laws, or lay them
- selves liable to the accusation of
bringing upon the cotumunity all
the evils that I have mentioned. It
is proper that these resolutions
should go before the people in order
that they may read in letters of fire
the danger which threatens them
from the inauguration of the evils
portrayed in the preamble. I un
derstand that the seventeen Sena
tors present pledge themselves to
reform, and I am glad th.A T
able to say so. It is tu w.',
evidence that a brigh"t,,a is
dawning upon a dark, en State.
Let us stand together iiko men,
knowing our rights, knowing our
dignity, knowing the responsibility
of our positions, and daring to do
our duty though the heavens fall.
Mr. Barber-I regret very much
Mr. President, that my poor ability ,
will not permit me to express my sen
timents upon this question as I would
wish, but in view of the extraordinary
circumstances which demand our at
tention at the present time. I do not
think it proper to allow the opportu
nity to pass wlithout saying a few G.
words upon the resolutions now before 8&
the Senate. It is well known to every 4
one that great politi'al changes have
taken place in this country with
in the last few year., resulting in the A
enfranchiscrin't of a race which had
been in a state of i' rvitude, and de
prived, in conscsrpuace, of all the ad
vantages PnCjoyd by other men. tU
acquainted aui we are with polhtical
matters, yet I conceive (and I wish to
impress this fact upon the mind of
every one within the sound of my
voiee) that th'ire are many among us
who have sualicient penetration to Pa
understand whit is right and just,
and what we should do in the interest
of those who have sclect~ed as to rep
resent them in the halls oi legislation.
Now, Mr. Prcaidvnt, the Senators who
have absented themselves from the
Senate Chamber for the pa.4 we* k are
directly violating thc trust reposed in. Ba
them by their constituenta, for they S.
have pledged themsclves to come here
and pass such las-s a', the interests of
the people demand. Where are they
to-day ? t'pon what pretext do they
Let thcemselves from their seat ? of
Why are they not here to cast their
votes in favor of those measures of at
reform which they have pledged them
selves upon the variouse rostrums t
throughout the State to support?9
They were elected as honest and hon -
orable men-as men who would do
their duty fearlessly as legislators, and
yet their seata are vacant. Do theyA
expect to redress the grievances of
which the people compl~ain by remain- lo
ing on the revenue cutter Wilderness,
or bygomng outside of the jurisdiction
of the Stat, on the Chattanooga rai
road? It strikes me that the beat evi
