On this day. the fifteenth anniversary nf
the surrender of New Orleans tn th.
forces of the United Stares, it becomes
my duty to announce to you that the aid
and countenance of the national eovern-
ment has been withdrawn from t.h Re
publicans of Louisiana and that a govern
ment, revolutionary in form, is rjracticallv
on the point of usurping the control ot
affairs in this state. I recall the circum
stances of the last electoral campaign only
to tnank you tor the hdehty to the princi
ple you then displayed. The Republican
party, as you know, entered upon the can
vass united and stronger than ever before.
It had enlisted to its banner an influen
tial class of native-born citizens of
old Whig antecedents, who, to their honor
De it said, still remain Faithful to the
principle they espoused, and the govern
ment they supported was f urther(strength
eced by the absence from' the state of the
element whose previous adherance to the
party had brought it into disropute.
These causes combined to briDg . about a
remarkable success achieved by the lie
publican party in all doubtful parishes,
with one exception. Even where the
white population preponderated, and
which gave us a majority in
the legislature, except where
organized violence prevailed, our state
ticket .carried every Republican parish
and also a number of parishes which, ir
the last legislature, were represented by
Democratic members. 1 briefly summar
ise the historical events which have
since ociurred. The general as
sembly met on the first of Jan
uary last; organized with a full legal
quorum in both houses; passed laws which
were approved by the executive of the
state, and on the second of January last
canvassed and declared the vote for gov
ernor. At ttns time tne nation was aci
tated bv doubts as to the result of the
presidential election, with the expectation
that Sam'l J. Tilden might possibly be
come president of the United States, and
wiin no nope or success, otnerwise. rnv
Opponent in the late campaign established
a mock legislature and went through the
form of inauguration, in order that there
mignt oe a semoiance oi a government
which laden, if inaugurated, could possi
bly galvanize into vitality. In the few days
that followed General Nicholls and hi
adherents were encouraged by the unex
pected relusal ot l'rcsident Urant to
recoginize the state government or to res
pond to the constitutional call of
the legislature, though he questioned the
legality oi neither. On the th ot Janu
ary, 1 had scarcely taken my seat in tbe
executive chair, when the white league
rose in armed insurrection and by coup de
main took possession ot tne supreme court,
arsenal, and the stations of the Metropol
itan poiice,all located at the capital. Then
came orders from President Grant estab'
lishiug a statue quo, the practical effect ol
which was to confirm the insurgents in the
advantages they had gained and prevented
any effort to dispose ot them in the mau
starts freely guration of l'rerfident Hayes. Ihe Stte
authorities made preparations to organize
a militia force for the defence cf the state
government. Gen. Nicholis's police seized
upon tbe recruiting officers and impris
oned iheni for treason, without the benefit
of bail on a writ ot habeas corpus. I tele
graphed this tact to President Hayes, ask
ing if this was a violation of the statue quo
and it not. whether the reiease ot these
men by force, all -civil remedies having
been exhausted, would be so considered
Tbe president replied: ' Your despatch ol

le meantime
rystalized into
shapes far from permitting the situation to
remain unchanged. It had broken into
the tax collectors offices of the city, had
taken forcible control of the state instita
tions nnd had strengthend itself on all sides,
Notwithstanding this, however, the com
mission found the legal lecislature still iu
session at the state house and my title
unassuiled and unassailable except by
force, 'ihe result of their labors during
the two weeks they remained here is
known of all men They induced a num
ber ot members ot the legal house ot rep
rosprif ntivss fn tatfi Rnats in Nicholis's
L OU D STARCH GLOSS house, thus giving it a returning board
I n ii.rit nt I'rinr fr fho mootinar nt t hp Iprris
lature the Democrats claimed to haye elec
ted only sixty members of the house, one less
than a quorum, Une at least ot the mem
bers so claimed by them wa3 absent. Un
the first of Jan. last, no Republican or
Independent member would consent to act
with the rucbolls house, and consequently,
in order to obtain even an appearance of
organization, they bad been compelled to
call to their aid three men defeated at the
polls, whose election had not been pre
viously claimed. The enquiry jtherefore
apema neriiient in this connection, it a
returnine board quorum was so effectual
for Nicholis's claim why was it that such
quorum was ignored " while it remained
faithful to the legal government of the
state? That government had a returning
board quorum from tbe day on which the
general assembly convened and the legis
lature was dulv organized, and re
mained in legal existence till disinte
crated bv the direct ' action of
the commission. This result having been
achieved it is a matter of record that
congratulatory messages were exchanged
between the president and bis commission.
On ihe following day the president, by a
formal order, directed that the L. b.
troops occupying a building in the vicinity
of the Btae house should be removed to
their barracks. Those troops had been
placed there by President Grant, without
a formal call from the governor, to protect
the returning board, while counting the
vote for president. I firmly believe that

European Gossip.
London, April 25. Prince Nicholas,
of Montenegro, and staff have gone to the
Albanian frontier.
The majority of the Paris papers, par
ticularly the Republicque Fraocaise, ex
press the opinion that Van Moltke s
declarations in the German parliament
yesterday were not intended as hostile td
Franco.
A special from Berlin says Moltke's
speech attracts as much attention as the
Russian manifesto, and is generally as
sumed that Moltke intended to tell French
Germany that he is watching their arma
nients; that he is acquainted with the
peculiar disposition of their troops; that
she cannot conceal their immense military
efforts to aim at anything else saye re
venge, at the first fitting opportunity, and
warning her that Germany will not allow her
to profit by the Oriental tioubles for a

SB. SCHENCK'S STANDARD
REMEDIES.
The standard remedies for all diseases of the
lungs are Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Schenck's
See Weed Tonic, and Scuenck s Manprake Pill.s
and if taken before the lungs are destroyed, a
speedy cure is effcted.
To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenk, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled sucess in the
treatment of pulmonary disease.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matters
in the lungs; nature throws it off by easy expect
oration, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
slight cough will throw it iff, the patient has rest
and the lungs begin to heal.
To enable the pulmonic syrup to do this
Schenk's Sea Weed Tonic must be freely used to
cleanse the stomach and liver. Schenck'9 Man
drake Pills acton the liver, removing all obstruc
tions, relax tuega i madder, the bile
and the liver is soon recieved.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative; tbe alkali of which it is compi led
mixes wl:h the food and prevents souring. It as
sists the digvstion by toning up the stomach to a
healthy condition, so that the food and the Ptil
monic Syrup willmake good blood; then the lm;
heal, aud the patient will surely get well if care
taken to prevent Iresn com.
All who wish to consult Dr. Schenk, either per
sonally or by letter, can do so at his principal office
corner of Sixth and arch Sts., Philadelphia, every
Monday.

Packard's Advice to the Police.
New Orleans, April 25. Packard's
parting with the police last night, it is
said, was quite an affecting affair. There
were tour Lundred and fifty ot them, and
every man wanted to shake hands and ef-
cort him home. Packard made a speech.
telling them if they could get any of the
appropriation made for them by the Nich
olls legislature to take it: their legal claims
for pay for their services would still re
main, as they had n?ver been discharged
from the force.
Some of the most effective members of
the force waited on Packard at his house
to day and told him they bad been offered
positions in the reorganized force and they
wanted his advice whether to acceDt or
not. He recommended them to accept.
Members of the legislature, in" i bodv.
have just passed down Sr. Charles street,
on their way to the state house headed
by Goy. Nicholls.

conditions at some points, eypeciallj the

"Magistrate Swander had an engage
ment with one of his fruit trees last Sun
day, in which he got worsted.and has been
carrying one hand in a handkerchief ever
since.
fiS-tie was a business man, that's the
only way we can account for it. He went
into Pershing's barber shop, and runnioe
his hand through his flowing hair, said:
"My hair aint very long but I guess you
may cut off ten cents worth of it" and he
was in earnest too.
E, Mississippi Valley Grove, No. 33.
(J. A. O. D., met last evening and elected
the following officers for the ensuing six
months: N- A., Lawrence Ecklund; . A.,
F. W. Strumtuel; R. S., M. Mabie;
Treasurer, A. Bloom; I. G., P. Almquist.
Installation occurs next Tuesday evening,
and will be private.
J5As announced in The Argus, some
two weeks ago, the three lodges of I. O.O.
F. will celebrate the 58th anniversary of
Udd v ellowship in this country on r nday of
this week in the hall of Manufacturers
Lodge, over the post office. The exercises
will consist of singing and speaking, after
which it will close with a banquet. Rev.
W. M. Collins, of Aledo, will deliver an ad
dress upon the occasion.
JSSfMiss Fannie Bagley, one of the
girls at the Gault house, had a narrow
escape from receiving severe injuries
list evening. While she was crossing
Kodniao avenue, at the crossing by the
tine national liank, a man can e
around the corner in a one horse wagon 1
loaded with saw dust, and, instead of
going the way he started, lie pulled his
horse close around the corner: the horse
knocking the lady down and bruising her
some, but not seriously. Peter Andersou
is the man's name. He stopped just long
enough to let her get from under the
wagon, and then drove on, not stopping to
see, nor seeming to care, bow badly she
was hurt. If these careless drivers were
fined a few times it might have a tendency
to make them more careful.
ftafThere are numerous aspirants for
the city marshalship, among the in some
who need the money which is derived from
the office to keep the wolf from the door;
others who think they deserve the office
because of labor and sacrifices they have
made for the perpetuity of Republicanism,
and so on, each urging his particular
claim, out is it not time that the city
was looking out for its own well fare?
Have we not had exhibitions enough of
inefficiency in this respect, resulting from
tbe appointment of men to office because
it was thought that it was the easiest and
cheapest way to support them? Then let
officers be selected with a view to fituess
and ability; men who have been tried aud
not found wanting; men who are known
to the citizens, and whom the people have
confidence in. There are 8 or 9 applicants
for the marshalship, but out of the lot,
there is notoue to whom the people would
look with as much confidence as to Woi.
Teller, one of the ablest policemen on the
force, and if the city council should ap
point him marshal they would never have
cause to regret it.

Obituary.
Many of our citizens will remembei that,
several years ago, under the superinten
dency of Mr. James Gow- Miss Mae B.
Hall was a teacher here. She was an ex
ceedingly lovely person, of most sweet and
amiable temperament, and greatly belov
ed by all who knew her. and her pupils
were bound to her by the warmest affec
tion, bhe wss a neice of the late Mrs.
L Mitchell, and boarded with Mrs.
(Jornelius Smith, at whose house, on the
loth of June 1869, she was married to
Mr. Charles M. Heaton.Jr, of Washington,
yj., the ceremony being performed by
Rev. Mr. Holcombe, it being the first
marriage ha solemnized in Rock Island.
Miss Hall was a devoted member of the
Episcopal church. She left with her hus
band, for Washington, where thev have
since resided and where she died on the
9th of this month. Ther3 are many here
ho will be saddeued by these lines, but
who will take a melancholy pleasure in
perusing the following, from Forney's
Sunday Clironicle, Washington, April
22nd:
Higher Life.
BT XBS. MAE B. BEATON. .
If the thought were present with us
That our eyes will see the Lord,
How we'd guard them from ail evil,
Uow we'd guide them by His word.
If we held it truly sacred
That our cars will hear His voice,
How we'd train them to distinguish
The least hinting of His choice.
If the truth we Lever doubted.
That our lips would speak His name
In a heavenly recognition
When the welcome plaudit came,
How we'd tune them to all sweetness.
Gentle words and kindly tone.
And we'd soon unlearn the harshness
That has caused the world to moan.
If this right hand may be taken
By angelic ones who wait
Ever al the shining portals,
Can it work the deeds ot hate?
If these feet would press the verdure
OI the flowery pastures there.
Can I lodow earthly by-wajs
And though false still deem them fair?
If my mind perchance may ripen
In tho fuller life above
'Neath the guiding of a teacher
Whose eternal name is Love,
Till it comprehends the wonders
Of creation's laultless plan,
TH it learns the yeaning pity
That onr Saviour had ior man.
Can I weaken it by tolly
Or let evil thoughts find place
In this mind which is immortal.
And should mirror back His lace?
Oh. if we are onlr faithful
Unto death that gate of life
Shall we e'er regret it, think you,
That we have endured the strife?
May our Lord vouchsafe to keep as
Pure in heart, and lip and eye.
Till we reach the golden city
In the glorious bye-snd-bye.
The above beantiful lines were written by Mrs.
Mae B. Heaton (recently deceased), tbe wife of
Mr. C. M. Heaton, Jr., of this city. They were
read at the funeral of that lady b$ the Rev. Mr.
Elliott, the pastor of the church of the Ascension,
who conducted the services oa that occasion.

CATARRH.
From George W. Shattuck, Esq., late
Foreign Entry Clerk, Boston
Custom House.
Gentlemen.- -I have been troubled with Catarrh
for several years, but by the nee of your remedy ii
has been greatly relieved. This t-ummer 1 have
been eniirely' free from It. I make use of it in my
family forcoldsin the head, and find it an effectual
remedy. I can coniMcntly recommend it to all who
are similarly afflicted. Verv truly yoors.

PERSEVERE
In the Use of this Eemedy until Cured,
It oontains the Great Healing Ele
ments of Plants in their es
sential form as Obtained
by Distillation.
Catarrh, In its extent and destructive force, stands
next to Consumption, and is closely allied to it;
for in certain constitutions the transitions from one
to the other is only a question of time. It is there
fore a singular thing that those afflicted whh it
should not make it the object oi their lives to rid
themselves of it. A single bottle of any remedy
cannot, in tnecnrouic -tage, effect a cure, nor even
bring the system rnder its influence fully. In
many such cases tbe bones and cartilage of the
nose are eaten sway, the organs of hearing, of see
ing, and of tas'iug, so atfeced as to be rendered
useless, Ihe nvalva so nlongated and inflamed as to
produces constant and distressing cough. The re
turn to health must necessarily be slow, under the
most favorable circumstances, when so seriously af
flicted; but as the eviden e of its great value daily
comes to hand, we become more and more satisfied
that there does not exist a case of Catarrh that can
not be cured by a judicious and persleteut nse of
Sampobd s Radical Cure for Catariih The re
lief in every case obtained from the first dose is an
indication of what it will do when the system is
brought constitutional. y under its influence.
