ON the re-assembling of the legisla
ture on "Wednesday, there was not a
quonim in cither branch. Twenty
seven senators were absent and one
hundred and four representatives. The
members should have taken a two
week's holiday and one to rest, and
would then possibly have been ready
for business.
We publish to-day the correspond
enco between Attorney-General Reed
and Gov. Palmer. As (he mailer Jiorr
stands, Gov. Vahncv certainly gets the
better of the state's attorney. The
latter bungles in his endeavor to slip
out of an unpleasant predicament. Be
ing a radical, he ought to know how to
get out of such a difficulty without ex
posing, so broadly his falsehood and
subterfuge.
The account of the unprovoked at
tack on an unoffending citizen of Now
Orleans by I'iuoltback, the lieutenant
governor of the state, and his party, is
perhaps exaggerated by the New
Orleans Republican, the Grant paper
which published it. Hut there is
doubtless a ground work of truth for
the story, and this shows tlio condition
to which the carpet-bag government
of Louisiana is bringing the state. The
salvation of the state depends on its
complete emancipation from radical
rule.
President Gn ant has had nn op
portunity to show his intention to ob
serve ic tviWs of the civil service com
mission. A certain ra&tcWV vuuator had
promised a colored man the posi.ion of
messenger, and the application was
made on the second of January, the
day after the new rules were to go into
effect. The president notified the senator
that the applicant would have to
annlv under the new rules
as these would have to be
strictly observed hereafter. This
purpose of tho president is about as
commendable in him as a resolution to
lead an honest life would be in a bur
glar who had stolen himself rich. Giant,
having supplied all his relations and
friends with fat offices, now commences
to carry on the administration in n
" strictly honest" way by beginning
on a mati and brother" who would
not have an opportunity to steal ten
cents from the government if he
wanted to,
Sexatoh Wilson, of Massachusetts,
in his speech before the republican
atato convention of Sew Hampshire,
endorsed Gen. Grant's administration
With a few exceptions he declared, it
has been a model of wisdom and hon
esty, and to his certain knowledge Gen.
Grant has received but n few very small
presents since he placed his august per
son in the chair presidential. Liko the
girl who slipped from virtue, the pres
ident seeks to excuse his short-comings
by belittling them. The girl, it is true,
had tho baby, out of wedlock ; " but
why," sho exclaimed, " do people mako
' such a fuss about the matter, and talk
' so much ? There is no seuso in this
'outctj.Wcauso the child is such a
very little crel(1 1 Anj s0 Gr.l(
" Why," exclaims Senuv Wilson, do
'these democrats cry out uvt the
prestueui uetug n present-taker. U
'true he has accented r0mw i,.,"'"1 Kum-V'
' they have all been very Miiall prenuite,
'uot worth mentioning!" Jtut, good
senator, lias the record of Grant's ro
fusal to accept anything offered to him
ever been made? lias he not accepted
all that has been offered to him ex
cept tho pup scut from Cincinnati bv
express, on which the donor had neg
leeted to pay the charges? This "small
present" apology is not sufficient. It
is wonderfully weak. A flat denial of
the well known fact that Grant has
prostituted tho high office of president
by accepting gifts of ofllco-bcekers
would be much better.

Silt Thu morning tuners of last Satur
day contain somo of tho correspondence
which lias passed botween you nnd mo in
relation to tho unfortunnto killing of tlio
Into Col. Orosvcnor. As this correspond
ence cr.mo from Springfield, 1 supposo you
furnished It. 1 hnvo been so pressed with
business in tlio prosecution of crimlnnls,
that I havo not had time to write you till
now.
I received your loiter dated Nov. ?.0th
which wns not malted till thu 2i!d or 'J3d
ultimo. In It you complain that I did uot
correct ludgo Williams when lio clinrgcd
tho grand jury. On tho noxt day after 1
received it, 1 wrote nnd mailed you n re
ply, explaining tho whole matter. I did
no't keep a copy of tho letter, but 1 well
remember the substance thereof.
stated in it that tho tlmo Judgo
Williams was delivering tho charge
my niicutioii wns diverted uy a
person who wished to upoak to mo nbotit a
caso to bo prcsontod to tho grand jurv, nnd
that 1 did not hear that part of tho elinrgo
of which you complain : nnd Hint wlmn I
rend tho chnrgu In tho papers, I snw that
IIIC JUUgo must navu iiusuiijnrstOOd inc,
and that I spoko to him nbout it ; inii ti,ni
If vou had been wronged by tho net nc
mine (whether of omission or commission),
1 sincoroiy regretted it. as 1 ucnru nom
ine from "you, 1 supposed you wns sntis-
lled with my explanation, till I saw tho
correspondence In question published ns
nunvc. nut it seems you wcro not sntis
flud. I do not know what more 1 can do
or say to satisfy you. Hut with all due re
spect, I submit that there is no real or
substantial dilloreneo between Judgo Wil
liams' chargo and what 1 told him.
1 told him tlint 1 had seen statements in
tho newspapers tlint you hnd written mo
your letter oi mo oOtn ot Uclobor, betoro
1 received it. mho nowspaper paragraphs
gavo tlio euostanco of that letter. Will
you not ngrco with mo that tlio giving of
the substance of tho letter is cqufvnlent to
giving your letter in full? 1 know Judgo
Williams had no intention of doing vou
any wrong, for ho is n gentleman of 'un
impeachable integrity, nnd hns n kind
heart, nnd would not, undor any circum
stances, knowingly wrong any one, high or
low, rich or poor.
Alter 1 received your letter of October
10th, 1 wrote to you that tho caso in re
lation to tho unfortunnto killing of Col.
Orosvcnor should bo full v. thorouchlv.
nnd impnrtinlly presented to tho urnml
jury, and that 1 would prosecute to the bed
ot my ability nny nnd nil persons who
mlgnt no indicted. 1 nlso suggested to
you that I did not think 1 had any right
to ndviso tho grand jury upon thu ellect
of tho cvldenco in any ensc. 1 nm still of
that opinion, nnd mil fully sustnined by
tho laws, in a quotation hereafter given.
That letter you did not see fit to communi
cato to tho gcncrnl nsscmbly in your mes
sage, although you furnished your Hrst let
tor to mo. Tho suppression of mv letter
might crcato tho impression in tho minds
of persons who nro ignotnnt of tho farts
turn u wns tuodesiro or tho olllcers of tho
lnw hero to suppress n full invcstieiilion
of tho c.vc. Tho grand iurv wns comnoscd
of the best citizens of this coiintv men
who nro tho peers of nny in this state
nnd they gnvu tlio caso n rnrcful, candid
nnd full investigation, nnd found no bill
ngainst nny of tho parlies accused. For
their action I nm not rcponslble ; nnd if
ino result uoes not pioaso you, 1 know of
no wny to remedy it.
1 lio lonvn to rofur you (upon the quos
tlcn of tho duty of n state's ntlorne v in n
grand jury room) to vol. 1, section 11)5, of
Iiarton'o :m:n.i iUWi .,1, ,.illn!
nm u is inii uuiyjuuring lliudiscusMoii
of tho quc-tion to remnln pcrfg.'tly silent,
unless his advicu or opinion in n matter of
lnw is requested. Tho lenst nttempt to in
lluenco tho grand jury in their decision up
on tlio ellect of tho evidence, is nn unjusti
llablo interference, and no fair and honor
nblo olllcor will over bo guiltyof it. It is
very common, however, lor semo ono of
tho grand jury to request tho opinion of
uiu iiioiiu prosecutor us to mo proprjotv
of llnding a bill. Hut it is his dutv to de
cline giving it, or oven nn intimation on
tho subject, but in nil cases to leave tho
grand jury to decide imlcpendentlv for
themselves."

from tlio public. Kuspoetfiilly yours,

might bo excused fur "suppressing it.'
