Adoption of a Basis of Ccmpromise by | the Conservatives? The Legislature To Be Newly and Fairly Organized. KELLOGG PROTECTED FROM IMPEACHMENT, The Concessions to the Radicals Severely Censured. JUDGE MARSHALL'S VIEWS. NEw ORLEANS, Feb. 9, 1875. At two ofclock this morning the Legislative caucus agreed by a large majority upon a modifica and ultimate proposition for compromise, and this morning tt was placed in the hands of the committee, just before leaving on the Jackson rail, way, The greatest secrecy is maintained by the members, who were ail pledgea in regard to its terms, Intending that it shall only be made pubic through the commitice after having decided upon it at Wasbingion, The loilowing, however, is a correct abstract of the document:— TUE COMPROMISE. Under the following conditions the conservative members of the Legislature returned by the Welis Board shall take their seats:—All conservative members clecied by official recuros, inc¢ependent of any action of the Returning Board, after having had their claims audited and decided upon by the committee, shall take thetr seats, Both the Hahn Legislature and the Wiltz Legislature are to re- Mnquish their organizations, anda House thus Jormed by vot bodies is to be reorganized. On vhe other hand, the conservative members are to MB. KELLOGG IS NOT TO BE IMPEACHSD for any past political offences, and a resolution 1s also to be passed pledging them not to undertake or countenance any revolutionary proceedings toward ousting him trom his position as legal Governor, as long as he is maintamed in that posi- on by the President of the United states, AGREEABLE HOPsS, This compromise is understood by the members of the caucus as securing the iruits of the elec- tion of 1674, ond as referring in no way to the election of 1872, the decision of which matter is left to Congress, where it has aiready oeen re- mitted. The committee are to consider and decide upon the ultimatum at Waesbing- ton and notify the conservatives here of its acceptance or rejection by the republicans, Tne general opinion prevails even among tne strongest opponents of tie Wheeler compromise, that all its stipulations will be agreeable to the people of the State, and that if mdaorsed by the radicals 1t will settle the Louisiana troubles, if not finally, at least for the time beiag, GOVERNOR KELLOGG’S MOTIVES IMPUGNED. There still, however, is likely to be opposition manifested to it, botu if the city and the couatry, and while Mr. Kellogg and the leading radicals are understood as advocating it, yet it does not appear popvlar with many of the prom- inent negro poiiticlans, who express themselves somewhat suspivious of Kellogg’s motives. McEnery says, tn relation to it, that be 13 not dis- posed to be actions, nor to urge a single straw’s weight in opposition to what the peorle consider their true interests, yet he can never stultily bim- sell by admitting in any way that Kellogg was elected Governor, or rightiully hoids the office. The members who most earnestly advocated the Wheeler proposition fear the rejection of the new one by tue Kellogy Legislature, and say it wes de- leated by filibusvering. Excitement still prevatis, but is dying oul 0 intenaity. THE COMMITTEE'S DEPARTURE. The Hon. F. C. Zacharte, conservative counsel before the committee, leit this evening to accom. pany them to Washington and look alter the con- servative interests. Major E, A. Burke, City Ad- ministrator of Improvements, accompanied him or. the same mission, CENSURE OF THE CONSERVATIVE ACTION. Before leaving Jadge Marshall stated to your correspondent that ie feared the recent action of the conservatives was likely to weaken their post- If they had remained firm in demanding restoration of statu quo pre- vious to the military ejectment he thinks the ad- munistration could not have long withstood the pressure that would have been brought against it by the fair thinking scautiment of the country, The republican party had a hugo | elepsant on its hands and could not maintain it very long; still he did not impeac the right of the people to regulate their owu affairs in the sadly ducea, They were surely tne best, and cught to be the sole, judges of what was proper to be done under the circumstances, The decisions of the Returning Board had been infamousiy illegal, and in b1S Opinion the conservatives were clearly en- ultled to the seats to wiich the people had elected them, From his point of view he could not iuliy indorse any course that , demanded less, and anything less, in his opinion, would fail to restore that peace and harmony among the people which the State was so desper- It is generally understood that the other mem- promise, but they did not express themselves de- cldedly upon tne merits of the terms now pro- posed. Mr. Wheeier remarked, however, that it would be supreme folly jor the conservative meme | bers to agree upon any terms they were not per- | lectly sausiied would be accepted by the people. THE CANVASSING OF TIE RETURNS. Another condition of the proposed compromise, | not mentioned above, ts to the effect that the Con- gressional commitiee, in canvassing and deciding | upon the oiMcial returns as to the eiection of members of the House, are also to incinde the returns in regard to Senators and the State Treas- urer. In case ol the acceptance of the proposi- tion Moncure, it is expected, will become Treas. urer instead of Dubucley who now hoids the oftice. THE KILLED AND WOUNDED IN THE STATE SINCE 1866.

W. STOUGHTON'S VIEWS. To Tux Epiror or Tre HenaLp:~. Ihave careiuliy read the letter of Mr, Curtis published in your paper this morning and your comments thereupon, and! have lately retectot inuck upon the course to be pursued jor the pur- pose Of restoring Jaw and tts administration, social order and its consequences to tne people of Lonisiana, I bave reached the conclusion—which Lthing isin harmony with your views ana with those entertained by thoughtful men of both po- litical parties—that a largo number, peruaps majority, of the citizens of that State eupmit with great repugoance to the Kellogg govern- Ment, and that many of them are re- Strained from rising im forge to over- torow it only by the presence of the military power of the United States. Thus Mr- Curtis says:—*It seems to be generally conceded that if te troops were withdrawn the Kellogg Rovernment, which nobody can pretend is any- thing bat a usurpation, would dissolve and melt away.” By what means ia it supposed that this dissolving and meiting process would be pro- duced? Evidently by the action or menace of that armed and organized force, now existing In Louisiana, only restrained by soldiers o1 our gov- erhmentirom immediate action; and, therefore, in plain language these gentie words—*dissvlve” and “inelt?’—when exploded, mean “revolution ;” and this it is the duty of the United States to pre- vent, jor the Kellogg government has been re- cognized as the only lawiul ove of Louisiana; and recognized, too, by the political department of the general government, tie only department, as was heid by the entire Supreme Couft—Taney, Chief Justice, delivering the opinion—naving power to determine which of two persons claim- ing to be tue chief Executive of a State was en- iiled to that office. To tuis decision it 1s 1air to Presume that ali citizens--and especially demo- crats—will yield obedience. And the same Court nas moreover held, in considering tue power of the President under tnat clause of the coustitu- tion which requires the United States to protect each State in tne Union against invasion and do- mestic violence, that it was his right ana duty to provide the means for such purpose in advance, and, therelore, in prevention of the a:tual emer- gency. Assuming, therelore, as it is tair to do— and, usI think, we must on facts well estabitsued— that the Kellogg government thus recog. nized by the only lawiul authority would, on the withdrawal of the federal troops, dissoive and melt away before the un gentle force or menace of organized insurrec- tionists, the President is at once confronted by the stern duty imposed by the constitution and laws and by his oath to enforce them, to stand sword io hand upon the soil of Loutsiana, prepared to prevent that insurrection which he would be bound to repress by the bayonet If successful. He has no alternative, and, as | have elsewhere sata, should he wiliuly failin this be would be justly sudject to impeachment. Let us suppose, how- ever, that this dissulving and melting process takes place, and that Seliogg and his government vanish from that distracted State, where then Should we 100k for its goverument? A paper con- stitution 1t would still have, bat would that pre- vent anarcoy and violence? Would it be capa- ble of self-enforcement? Would the advocates of this dissolution, however peaceful, hope or expect to see the advent of Micknery as Governor, and, if 80, how would they expect this to be accom- plished? Wiil he aad his associates be expecied to mount to their places upon the shoulders of White Leaguers ? and if this sbouid happen, what | reason have we to hope that a large portion, per- Naps a majority of the citizens of Louisiana wilt notregard him and his associates as usurpers, also to dissolve aud meit away before armed citi- zens organized to put down usurpation and punish insurrection? And who ventures adequate proofor probabtlity that McEuery, and those who were candidates for office with him in | 1872, were then lairiy eiected—and as was sug- gested in your editorial of this morning, why should we turn one bogus Governor out merely to let another m? indeed, this cannot be permitted, and honest, thoughtiul men, of both parties must | concede that until Congress shall take control ol the subject tne President must stand at tue Ubreshoid of this unreatened Insurrection, repress- ing it by menace, ready, should it break out in lorce, to crusi it by violence. relieved of his pain‘ul duty against the periorm- ance of which the prejudices even of many good men are strong? Congress and only Congress can do this; for that body may take from him tne | discretion to decide whetner insurrection exists oris threatened in Lousiana, and may deprive tim of the power to repre discretion and power uy also if it will, for it 18, or otuers, Congress may by law that the Kellogg government shall cease to | be longer recognized as such, and should it order another election, it may, ay I think it should, pro- vide not merely for the election of representatives, | but for the election of Governor and Lieutenant Governor aiso, providing that when this 1s done the Kellogg government suail cease and be super- seded. As lhave elsewhere said, such an elec: tion may be Jairly urged upon two grounds—first, that in substance, and within the meaning of the constitution, Louisiana has not a repuouican form of government, for it cannot be maintained that thehdoption of a paper form merely answers the constitutional requirements, Luis may exist with @ government of usurpers, not chosen by or ia any sense representatives of the people, as is said now to prevall in Louisiana, and upon this paper form there may arise a military goverament, ex- ecuted upon the people, or a portion of them, by law, or such armea permanent organt may eXist within a State as to prevent a from voting, thereby ut- terly destroying that representation which reasonable menu will @lmit it was the purpose of the framers of the coustitution to secure to the people of every state of the Union. Wf the duty of the United Stutes, guaranteeing to each State a republican iorm of government, could not | atise so long as one in form on paper existed, tr- respective of the kind of government actually en- forced upon the people by usurpation or othor- wise, then, indeed, would this solema guarantee be of paper merely—without sabstance, withont hope, and void, Whether the condition, soctal and political, of Louisiana demands of Congress the enforcement of this guarantee 1b 1s ior that body to judge. I have re and elsewhere sug- gested some reasons why tis may be lawfuily cone by ordering @ new election, to be luirly con ducted in all respects, under tne direction of hon- estmen, composed equally of both political par- ties, Such a mode would be peacetul, as L beiteve, and if not im strictness within the constitutional power of Congress migit in the mode suggested ve held without forming a dangerous precedent. But Mr. Curtis is mistaken tn supposiag this to be the only, or indeed the strongest ground on which the ordering of au election by Congress may be mamtained, Al! lawyers, all statesmen, ns, must concede that until the Prestdent 1s relieved of his duty to repress tus surrection and domesttc violence he must keep in Louisiana the force needed for that purpose. insurrection must, unt thea, be kept down by the bayonet or Its menace. And Why and to what end? Becanse citizens of that State who belleve or ert that Kellogg and nis associates are usurpers have armed and organ. ized to expel them from oflice the moment national arm is remeved; and thew only pretext jor this is that these persons wore not lawfaliy elected, and these armed | citizens dec tt shall c ptate ap fuiriy represen It 1s We the Kellogs government e tained by federal force, wna does not end until 1S76,tms force, 8 ib anless in some manner relieved, would remain in that State for & period of avout two years ionger, Which would be the most offensive to its people, the continued pr to Bay on | How shall he be | it, and conler that | rather represents the | majesty aud power o: the Uaited States, declare | all | re that their violence and threats of | © 80 800n a} the lawlul voters of the and never watil then, Known that so long as musv be sts as bis term ot ofice nce of national trvops or the presence for a | Nmited period of national men, appointed te equal numbers from both political parties and eens there by Congress to conduct @ fair election for State oMicers? The troops now there, thougt by erder of the President, are really present only because a law of Congress maxes it his duty (0 send and keep them there. They are there, too, for the purpose of preventing the out break of that insurrection and domestic violence which tho force of the State is powerless to sun press; and tt t3 equaliy powerless to expel the cause, for the men who oppose the present State government wou'd not accept the results of an election conducted under tts authority. The atti- taie of Congress, then, is this:—It may, and, ine deed, must, so long as the Kellogs government ts maintained, do so by bayonets in the bands of tra soldiers, when ail men admit that these mtg’: be removed, tfan election could be held, in which the will of the people could be fully expressed, ‘The end to de attained is the repression of do mestic violenve, and to attain this Congress may use all lawful and eMcient means. It ts not ae nied by apy one that the causes which prodace this violence wou!d be removed by an election fairly conducted, and yet it is said by opponents of this metnod that although itis the duty of the President—for that purpose the agent of Com gress—to stand upon the sotl of Louisiana, armed and in en aggressive attitude, that he may be proe pared to put down domestic violence, Congress, nevertheless, has no power to do tiis by peace fully expelling its eause—vy ordering and con- | ducting a fair election, Do not those who thas reason adopt very narrow and technical views instead of that enlarged and statesmanitke policy which the constitution of our country permite and which the emergency demands ?
