A DEAD WITNESS, D. A.

Afier the elec- tion WENER came to New Orlcans with the ro- turns, which ho delivered to the Returning Board without any protest or affidavit in regard to the legniity of the bulldozed election, frankiy admitting that he was afraid his lite was in dan- ger it he shoula state under oath the Intimida. tlon the Democrsts had practiced.

Upon the sssurance of personal protection ho made and filed the pro- test required by Inw, end on tho strength of that afMdavit the Rolurning Board threw out {lie precinets whero tue most frauds and bull. dezlog had been done, Hu owned a littlo prop: erty i the parlsh, and had his family there. He remnained fn New Orloans a few wecks, and then ventured to retnrn to his home,—a rash and fatal step on his part, a8 tho event proved, for he was soon murdered In open day.
