'The President sent a special messnge to the House yestor.oy containing the report made 0 him of the Committeo of eminent citizons sent to New Orleans to examino matters in connection with the bulldozing of the blacks aod the canvassing of the votes. wittee linve accompanied their roport with o ‘barre! full of affidavits of intimidated blacks, numbering more than 4,000 sworn state. ments, setting forth the reign of terror that existed in several parishes. looked over this huge pile of cvidence says: T'he teetimony s go complete, comprehenslve, ani conclusive that murder und violence and in- timidation were emploved to cacry the election in tho Lulldozed parishes, that the country will sus- taln the Board in their action, Mr. Evoeve Have, who was one of tho Committee, said to Democrats yesterday who talked with him that ho was glad thuy wero golug to send an Investigating Cominitteo to Louisinun; that the Republicans had a per- fect caso ; and that the Democrats would be glad to drop it Lefore getting at tho bottom of thie course pursued by thoir party in that = en.

The Democratic conspiracy to eapturo the Presidency by frand is not confined to the Lowor Honse of Congress, but in its ramifi- cations reaches to the far-off State of Ore- gon, whero a Demoeratic Governor has been found base enough to lend his official ald to a plot intended to stenl from Harra the voto of one Elector nnd give it to Trupen, Al though the people of Oregon, by an undis- pnted majority givon nt an honest and freo election, havo chosen tho Republican Elec- toral ticket tho Governor Las undertaken to subvert the will of the majority by with- bolding the certificato of clection to one of tho Republican Electors, and by giving tho cortificate to n Trroex Eloctor, The ground alleged is the ineligibility of one of tlie Re- publican candidates—which is in fact no gronud at all, innsmuch as it is within the power of the remaining Electors to fill the vacancy. This courso was pursued yester- day, the College Ignoring the action of the Governor, and casting three votes for Haves and Woeerer, The Democrat holding the fraudulent cortificato was ignored, and all by himself procceded to clioose two other Eleotors and assumed to cast tho Elcctoral voto of the State. Thero is not tho shadow of doubt that Hayesis ontitled to Oregon's threo Electoral votes. Gov. Gnover knows this perfectly wall, but it is prosumed that ho had received orders from Washinglon to resort to tho desporato expediont of certify- ing the eloction of one Democratic Elector as the basis of ncontest in Congress, and fulfilled bis instructions to tha letter. 'The fraud will not work. Oregon's vote will e cast and counted golid for Hayes and WiegLEnR, THE LOUISIANA ELECTION. & In considering the Louisiaua election, thers ara certain points which are clenrly estab. lished, and which wo mny state as follows : 1. Of tho votes that found their way into tho _ballot-box in the recent elcotion tho majority were unquestionably given to the Tioen nnd Hexoricks Electors, the nverage being about 83,000 for the Democratic and 76,000 for the Ropublican Llectors, This was the condition of the vote when the papers were opeued and before they were purged by the Returning Borrd; and this first point is not denied by any one. 2, Before the voto was ennvassed allega- tions were made, sottiug forth that numerous frauds of a very serious kind had been per. potrated in violation of tho election laws of the State, and that theso outrages included murder, attempted murder, whippings, threats, and intimidations of every imagin- able form. There is no question of this, and iho deninls by the ex-Confederates that such outrages were perpotrated only wealens their own position, It would be better for them, oven as & matter of policy, to admit them, and then show, if they can, that they were not sufiicient to vitiate their polled majority, To deny theso outrages throws discredit upon all their statoments, since the proofs are overwholming., Thousands of wit- nesses bave tostified to them.

'The law of the State confers upon the Roturning Board all the powers of A court to canvass tho votes, go behind tho roturns, and inquire 08 to frauds practiced in any pre- cinot of the State, This law is still in force, notwithstanding that tho Domocratic Legis- Iaturo might at avy time have repealed it, aud Dr. Lastar recontly declared on the ro- tunda of the St. Oharles Hotel in Now Or- leaus that the Confederates were fools not to have ropealed it long ago. T'he law has been recognized by all the Democratic lawyers, aud by sich promineut Democrats ns Parar- un, ‘I'nussuny, Jontax and others, who have recontly visited New Orleaus in the in- terest of Democratic ** Reform * and spoils. 1t is, therefore,’ unquestionable that the Re- turnivg Board is a lawful Lody, clothed with judicial powers; that no local Court can re- view or sct aslda its findings, or dictate what its decisions shall be; and that the laws of the State mnko its decisions final and bind- ing, so far ay the eloctions of the State are concerned, 4.

No honest Republican wants the Electoral vote given to Mr, Haves unless it has been ob. tained iu accordance with existing laws, It does not become Democrats to taunt Repub- licans with fraud nutil they huve the un- denioble proof, Their election record for forty years s tainted with fraud.

Bclentific men were consplenons by thele abeence, and, before the cremation was over, 1) lenked out that the slim attendance of notables way attributablo to the fact of Dr. Le Moyne's having notified them that thero would be no rooin for thew, ‘This morning, soon after 7 o'clock, Dr. Le Moyne and Henry 8.

Brice, of the Wheeling Board of Tlealth, were alresdy on the atrect, and all climbed the hill togethér, The people of Wash. Ington seemed to pay littlo attention to the crema. tlon, Thosmall party of scientists were greeted with a carlous stare, and that was all. Twenty. five newepaper men closely follawed the party, and ot 8 o'clock the reception-room was fall, TIR CRID rested on the catatalque near a window In the ra. ception-room, and dizectly opposite the door leag. ing from the front of the bullding. Tn the crib were the romains of the Baron. The head only was exposed, tho hody belng wrapped in o winding. shoet of linen, The face was vory dark, nearly Diack In color, but the featurcs weré natural, The tissuca were flaceld, and tho cyes sunken and wasted, With the exception of o faint smell of carbolic acld the remalns were odorless, Tho body was in such o conditlon that a number of physiclans expressed the opfalon that 1t would not be a difileuit work to aeparate the skin from tho muscular tisaues, The odor of car. bollc acld noted arose from o crysialization of that acld wjth which the cavity of the stomnach had been partly flled. In addition to this, o preparation of potter's clay was used in the process of embalm- inent. Tho body welghed ninely-two pounds. At 15 minutes after 8 o'clock Col. Dlcott complet ¢l the preparation of the body for cremation. Frankincense, myrrh, and aromotic aplees were sprinkled over it, and then It was wrapped ina linen cloth which had been saturated fn s salution of slum. A few primroses, some immor- telles, o bunch of gorauinms and roses, and several eprigs of evergreen were laid upon the dead Baron's breast, and the pall-Learers stepped to the crib and LIFTED THE BODY PROM TIE CATATALQUE. Ablast of furlous heat came frum the furnace when the door was opened, nud the pall-bearers propelled tho body quickly futo the furnace, It was thought that the first hieat wonld consume the coverings, and to avert this the winding-sheet soaked in alum waoter had been wrapped obont the body, Tho tempersturs of the furnnce was then 1,000 degrecs, and the heot was [ucrensed untll after the body waa in the furnace about sn hour the temperature was belleved to be about 2,000 dogrecs. This was purcly hypotheticsl, however, aa there wasno barometer on band to accaratcly determine the inlenxity of the heat, It was about twenty-five minutes after 8 a'cluck when the door of the furnace was cloacd upon the re- mains of tho Baron, and for probably ten mec- onds after’ & an unpleasant smell "tainted the room. The odor was faint, bat quite pronounced enough to be noted by the spuc- tators. A constant current of air was forced into the furnace by s Dblower. Farthe firat hulf tone observations were mado overy few minutes, and oo change counld be abserved In the appearance of the ‘body in tho crlb, At 10 minutes past 9 o'clock the form of the body wae unchanged. Col, Olcott mude an observation atthis timo, and “cxpresecd the opinlon that tle body wan destroyed, but that the ashes still ru- tained tho form, ~ Vive minutes nfter this another obeervation diaclosed the boued of the left kuec in- cundescent and protruding from tho winding: sheets. At the same momend. TIE BARE AND ILLUMINED SKULL was also visible, and above it the evergreens were curled into o wreath, At twenty minutes after 9 o'clock the ribs on the left aldo shawed through the linen wrappers, and a few minutes sfier the larger bones uf the thigh and log on the same side of the body were apparent. The wreath and rch of evergtecus were atill Intact. At D:43 snother ohservation was made, Then it was fmpossible 1o distingufshthooutling of the body. At110' ‘clock the incincrution was comvlete, nothing belng left of the Buron but three pints of ashes—nuite enough to 1) tho small urn which rested on top of the fur- nace durlng the cremation.
