'º he restult of this ctvtes was lt0 tma oritty for the tlayens le.t.ors. The Itailttee ar te at, let. ll th tat t.he oOInt was legal and sonitt1111n, n4y that the Board had the right, to snk tihe true vote behind the ret urns Illddr the statute whiht orated it., T''hey any "A *$tato law onactetd i,ro heroo otmlitco lto prevent election fratudnts, shouhl be bone Hounlly ootnstruited. The report then rtoes on to argulo that thoe Iining of the board is con elusivte, andl cannot, he rovised by a re elatvass or reacheod .y ia writ, of quo tcirtr'etnto, hatcatie the eloctors are fttocfttu.t (flahi., or reveot'sod by (longress, ca.use the .ot.tllittlon lodges the whole power in the hiate. A great tianuy authoritios are oited to maintain these positions. A dltin.otion is drawn however, In the otiane of a mnihstneriai ert.ri, loate of a (ltovonUr, who is not a metlmber of the board, and has no ower to decide anything., It is argtnd that Uongress may look behind hls certiti, cate to asoort|iti the facts, as a court Imay go behitl Ihe more tministorlal ertllicate of a clerk purportintg to verify ai judgment to see what the Judgmlent really is. lhltl if Congress can revise the actilon of the boardl, it mulst go to the hottom of the poll, and ascertain the trtue vote in all t1he contested coun ties. It would have to go as far as a Oourt hi a ,rtio 1irri''tof) proceeding. Much an attemI t would not he nlade, for there is noie tn: and anytllhing lss would he unjust for going to the bot tom of the poll, the ommnltitton say, woutld bhow, acording to the iovlnllce taken by them, that tri llayes electors had nore than 130 mlajority. The report then iroeeud' to discuss the tsttlmony In detail, in regard to liakr andtl uvnl coun ties, the conlmitttlo say thnat It, Is shown that the HtMte loard dlchied that the I) only legal return before themn from haaker county was that of the county judge and his associates. They, how ever, went to the precinct returns for the true vote, but when the ulpreinr e Court made its order they recurred to the return whihji they had first. adjudged to be the only legal one. The comnitl. tee olaim to shbow that the county clerk's wpaalr was in no sote'o a return, and hai notatany tille been treated as such, 11 and that It. could not be so treated Lo eause the persons ncttlssary to mnake a legal canvanss wre not present., as they were in Duval county, which the Demol orate Insist is a parallel rase. T'lih committee, however, claim to matieo it very apparent that there Is a vital differ ence between the two cases, antd say if the face of the returns Is to rule, It. should rule in Baker count y, where', at. m.et, there was mnlsgutlded zcal, as well asJackson where there was proemdi tated ran\ality. Counting all the returns on t heir face, andi taking even the pretended return made by tahP county clerk of Baker, will still leave Hayes a small mnjorit.y. The committee says It has carefully ox amined into the election in Duval county, and found it honest; but in Jackson county they found evidence of two hundred and fifty fraudulent votes, which they proceed to set forth very fully. They state that they found many indications of fraud and much intimidation of voters at Precinct No. 3, Key West, in Monroe county. In 1antee county they say the election was a Democratic farceo. In Hamilton county the returns of the electoral vote were underlined into the returns of one preeinct several days after they were signed and delivered to the county clerk, and unauthorized Ipersons made the canvass In another precinct, the officers signing the returns having no personal knowledgo of their correct ness. In Jefferson and Columbia coun ties there was violent intimidation of colored voters, and social and business procrlption. In many counties a sys tem of marked tickets was employed to compel colored men to vote the Demo cratiO ticket, the details of which are fully set out. Other counties and topics are iso discussed In detail. The report was adopted by all the Republ can members of the Committee on Privi " legef and Elections. GRANT AND LOUIsIANA.

House bill abollshing the office of Dlistrlot Attorney pro ternm. in the country parishes was taken up. Mr. Les, of t. IHelena, made a lengthy argn ment in opposition to the bill. He claimed the necessity of the office sought to be abollihed by the btal. 'his oflocer was not salaried by the State, but received ten dollars only when a case was decided In favor of the State. Mr. Brldger, of Oaldweil, replied that very sel dom, within hit experience, had District Attor neys pro tem. received lees than six hundred to a thousand dollars per. annum, and that it was always an easy matter to appoint attorneys to represent criminals in the absence of a Distlrct At orney pro tem. lie might not be in favor of a wholesale reduction of ofmoes, but he was cx pressing the universal sentiment of his parish in advocating the abolition 0o the office of District Attorneys pro temporeo. Mr. Toler of BRchland was opposed to the bill. He dad not think that becsnse police juries in the parishes obese to pay large sums of money to district attorneys pro tern that that was an ar gument that the existing law was a bad one. It only showed that the police Jlries were not good. The fee of the district attorney pro ternm was only $15, when he obtained a conviction, and even that fee was to be collected from the ac. cnsed. - Mr. Lea again took the floor and argued against tbe bill, in answer to Mr. Bridger, from s legal print of view. He floal y moved to reconsider the vote by which it had been engrossed, in order to recommit it to the Judiciary Uommlttee. Mr. Young of Olaiborne spoke in favor of tak ing a square vote on the subject, let the bill pass or not. Mr. McGehee spoke in favor of the reconsider ation, inasmuch as the bill, which was so im portant, had been hastily acted on to its third reading the dgv before. Mr. Jonas, of Orleans, remarked that, as had been said, the members of the Judiciary Com mittee would be apt to report favorably n the bill;that iae itnow reads.
