8 WASHINGTON. Report of the Louisiana Committee on | the Coushatta Murder. NO POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE. | Views of President Grant on the Coming Campaign. GOVERNOR TILDEN'S MAIN DIFFICULTY. ——_-_— FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT. Wasurxotoy, July 2! THE COUSHATTA AFFAIR—ANOTHER sOUTHERN OUTRAGE DISPOSED OF--THE ATTEMPTED MURDER OF TWITCHELL WITHOUT POLITICAL BIGNIFICANCE—DEPLORABLE STATE OF AF- FAS IN @HE PARISH UNDER ONE MAN RULE—REPORT OF THE SUB-COMMITTY ‘The recent assassination of Twitchell in Coushatta, La, has been cried up in the North as “another politi- cal murder,” and Twitchell 1s cailed a “martyr to hb- erty.” Here is the report of the sub-committee of Congress sent specially to iavestigate the murder, Of she two members of the sub-committee, one is a demo- at, the other a republican, and both sign the report, {tis short enough and important enough to be read Vbrough, and it tells the story of many other so-called Southern outrages,” There is no excuse tor the as- sassination, and the local authority, the Sheriff, a re- publican, scems to be at fault that the assassin escaped, But Twitchell was not a “martyr,” nor is there any proof that he was murdered for his politics, ‘The report 18 as follows :— * Your committee, in pursuance of the resolution Adopted on the 30tu Of May, atter taking the testimony | df ove Witness in New Orieans, proceeded by steamers to the town of Coushaita, in ited River parish, reach- ‘ng tuere on the evening of the 6th of June, 'On the 7th aud Sth of June thirty-three witnesses were mined, including prominent men of byth politica ties. From the testimony produced it appears that on the moruiug of the 2d of May, 1576, at an early hour, a Stranger, mouuied upo'a peculisriy colored pony, entered the town of Coushatta, He was disguised, hav- ing on a coat made of rubber or oilcloth, rewhing nearly to bis feet; a heavy beard, evidently tulse over bis face, Alter reaching the town and befcre dis- mounting be went to a blacksmith’s shop at the upper end of the villuge, Where he could commiand a view of the opposite side of the river, He requested t blacksmith to shoe his horse, but tinally ated that “his brother would Soon be there and woud direct. the smith as to the manner tu which the horse should be shod, He 1e- mained in the shop unul he apparently saw Mr. Twitchell approaching the ferry landing 1n a buggy, on the opposite side of the river, He then rode to ‘the landing, where he dismounted, hitched bis horse, and proceeved to the top of the bank. About the time he reached the top of the bank the ferry skiff, im which were David King, M. H. Twitchell and the ferryman (a rolored man), approached the landing. ‘Ihe stranger vd tire,’ Wounding Mr, Twitchell in the le; hell jumped into the river and caught the edge of Yho skiff with bis hand, Mr. King tired at the azsassin from a revolver, when he turned bis gun upon King | death at once. ‘Twitchell and then and shot hin, evidently causing He then turhed his” gun again on aud shot) him through one arm through the other. About this time the ferry. man attempted to rescue Twitchell irom the water, and to prevent tuis the assassin fired at the ferryman, wounding Lim in one ot nis hands, Evi- denily supposing that his victim was dead the assassin mounted and rode away. During the progress of the shooting a gentleman named Benjamin Wolison rode Up On a horse, approacting quite near. Tho ussassia pointed his gun at Wollson and ordered him away, and ¢ retired. ‘Two ladies, Mis. E. J. Merrell aud Mrs, J. Lee, also approached the assassin during the prog- ress of the firing. Mrs, Merrell begged him to desist, but without effect, and scanned hin closely, Mr. ‘Twitchell! was rescued trom the river and taken to the shore whence he had embarked a few minutes beiore, “i King’s body was removed from the skill; he w oud, Such a tragedy naturally caused much excitement in the village. A number of tue citizens crossed the river and gave such aid as was in their power to the Wounded men, and many vo.untecred tu pursue and tndeayor to capture the murcerer, and, alter some flelay caused by the indecision and lack of Berve exhibited by the Sherif of the parish, a posse was organized in charge of the Deputy Sherif, au vid man, and started in pursuit, but, after following the trail for several miles, lost i, and, finding it tim practicable to pet on any Glow oF ‘trace of tue fugitive from Justice, foally returned to ther tv the country is thinly populated; the roads few ana dillicuit, and the means of escape ure abundant by ths and UWrough the swamps almost impenetrable. Twitehell was removed 1.0 Springvilie, on the Lousbaita side of the river and about a mile from the Jowu, where his testimony was taken, The testimony of the witnesses, without exception, is to the efle that the man the horse that he rode was uot recoguizea as belonging In that part of the counv The toregoing etnbrac 5 all that your committee wore enabled to ascertain in regard to tke death of M King and (he wounding of Mr, fwitebell and the terr; man, Witnesses were examined with a view to ascer- taining Whether the assassination “was or Was not of a political cbaracter,”” Ax before stated, gentlemen re- presenting both of the political parties, white und col- red men, Were called aud examined, ' The testunouy rows that Mr. Twitchell was instrumental and tuok an active part in tho organization of Red River parish, and atthe elecuon preceding the organizavion of he paricl, and while a candidate upou the republican ticket Tor State Senator, Was supported by prominent denverats in Coushatta and its neighborhood. Since the organization of the parist he has controticd the ap- dointinent Of its officers, and has had almost un- amited control of its wars, In wddition to tiling tho iflice of State Senator, he filled several offices humselt; and on the 2d of May last, according to bis own testi- nony, be Was a State Senator, meimber of the poiice ury of the parish, member of the school board and United States Commissiouer. In reality he also tad iontrol of the school money and other moavys col- weted irom the taxpayers of the — paris, | Che tesumony cf all the disimerested wit. | esses who Were examined in regard to the conduct | of parcehial affairs was to tho eflect that they had been loosely and exiravagantiy manager Mr. Twitchell was responsible "tor their im ment.

In many cased absolute contiseation fesuited. It became necessary to erect. a court bouse and jail tor the pat The evidence shows that the contract for the erection of the court house was awarded Wo one Jobu I, Yatos (at that tine Suerilf of the parish), through the influence of Twitchell, the: &s how, upon the police jury; that wtver the award had been made, fwitchell demanded of Yates the contract, threatening that 1: it was not surrendered to him he would cause it to be revoke Ya dia surrender it to Twitchell, who caused the building to be erected and reaped the 'proiit therefrom. Although the contract was let at $16,525, yet the ev goes to show that, in reality, the work has eost upward of $40,000, Again, Mr. Twitchell procured the building ot soveral levees, and the evidence shows that gross frauds were perpetrated upon the treasury, and large sums of mouey realized therefrom by iwiteheil aud bis conled- eraies.

These evils lad grown tw such an that an organization had been formed, known as the “Prop: erty-holders aud Laborers’ Unien,” composed of re- publicans and wemocrats, white and black, having tor Ite object the rescue of the parish from iis deplorable cond itien. ‘ The evidence further sho that, notwithstanding the condition of afairs, jor nearly two years past there had been no politicn! excitement, no threats or ai tempts at mumidation bad been heard or made.

All of which is respectfully submitted. JOHN Lp VANCE, WILLIAM, WoopBURN, Sub-Committee on Cousbatta Affair, PRESIDENT GRANT ON THE POLITICAL CAM PAIGN—THE DIFFICULTIES OF GOVERNOR TILDEN GRAPHICALLY PORTRAYED, The President said last week to a Louisiana politician that he did not expect the republican party to carry apy Southern States excopt the two Carolinas and Louisiana, but that in these States the republicans would receive substantial assistance from Washington, Since then he has expressed to several prominent politicians some of his ideas of the campaign, He remarked that the division between the Eastern and Western democrats gave a great ad- vantage to the republicans; that if Gov- ernor Tilden’s letter proved to be strong and outspoken for hard money this would lose Indiana and Ohio to the democrats in October, and that if these States in October go ugainst the democrats this would so encourage the republicans as to give them Louis. jana and North and South Carolina by considerable majorities, and probably also New York and some other doubtful States 1n November. Hence he thought it would be fatal to the democrats to sacrifice Indiana in October, But, on the other band, it Governor Til- den should trim in bis letter with a view to carrying Indiana, then he would unaoubtedly sacrifice New York and the other Eastern Statcs, which be must gain to gecure the election, Hence be thought Mr. ‘Tilden has a very difficult task before him in tke writ. ing of his letter. LOUISIANA POLITICS—SENATOR WEST INTERFER- ING WITH KELLOGG'S ARBANGEMENTS—WISE ACTION OF THE DEMOCRATS IN CONVENTION. Governor Kellogg and several other prominent Louisiana republican politicians have come here with a view to a rearrangement of some of the federal offices for the campaign. They have seen the Presi- dent, but appear to bave run against a difficulty in Senator West, who opposes the nominations they pro- pose, and itis said has notified the President that no favorites of Governor Kellogg will be confirmed by the Senate, because he will oppose them, ‘The action of the Louisiana Democratic Convention has been conspicuously wise, The whole ticket 1s con- servative and strong, and the Congressional nomina. tions ure also excellent, The nomination of General Randal Gibson, especially, has general approval. He has shown himself this session ono of the best men on either side, Itis probab.c that Mr, Nash, the colored republican member, will be the only republican elected from Lousiana, He is an excellent man and liked in his district by both races. THE CONTESTED ELKCTION CaSE OF PLATT AGAINST GOODE—BLUNDER OF THE DEMO- RATS, The democrats made a blunder to-day in voting to seat Mr. Goode, in the contested election case of Platt against Goode. Platt, the republican, claimed the | seat, a majority of the committee reported in his favor, ang Mr, Thompson, of Massachusetts, democrat, made a very forcible speech to-day 1m tavor of seating: Platt; but the Virginia members made strenuous efforts to carry the democratic side of the House against the report of the committee and to-day suc- ceeded, The yote caused a good deal of feeling in the House.

TILDEN AND HENDRICKS: The Standard Bearers of the Democracy Meet at Saratoga. ADJUSTMENT OF THE FINANCIAL DIFFERENCES The‘ Letters of Acceptance To Be Issued in * a Few Days. SaRatoGa, July 28, 1876. There is considerable national political interest, just how, centered at Saratoga Here is tho pivot upon which the democratic political machine is at this mo- ment revolving. Besides the conference of the can- didates for President and Vice President which 1s attracting politicians here, the State Central Commit- tee will assemblo at this place next week, to appoint a time and place for holding the State Convention, Quite, a number of Prominent public men have been hero tor several days, republicans as well as democrats; but, as some of them are spending the season with their fam ilies at the Springs, it must not be avsumed that all of them have come here with a special view to political considerations, ARRIVAL OF GOVERNOR HENDRICKS, Governor Hendricks arrived on Wednesday at the United States Hotel, waich is the political headquar- ters as well as the resort of the élite of the fashionable world this season, Ho has been aa object of much at- tention since his arrival He was present at the races yesterday and received many callers last evening and ‘this morning. ARRIVAL OF GOVERNOR TILDEN, Governor Tilden arrived this afternoon and immedi- ately drove to the United States Hotel. Ex-Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, accompanied by his wite and daughter, came on the same train. Governor Curtin says his presence here has no political significance what- ever; that be is merely making his avnual summer visit to tho Springs, and did not even know that Gov- ernor Tilden was on the same train with nim from Albany. PROMINENT POLITICIANS ARRIVED, Among the other politicians hero of different politi- ca! proclivities are Lieutenant Governor Dorsheimer, Augustus Schell, ex-Attorney General Daniel Pratt, Fernando Wood, ex-Mayor Opdyke, ex-Governor Bowie, ot Maryland; Governor Alexander H. Rice, ot Massachusntts; Colonel Rush C. Hawkins and Chester A. Arthur, of New York; William C, Kingsley and J. S. 7. Stranahan, of Brooklyn; Congressman Isaac Sherman, of New York, and ©. W. Chapin, of Mussa- chusetts; State Sevator Wagner, Murat Halstead, of Cincinnati, besides a number ot others of more or less prominence. William Orton, President of the Western Union Tele- graph Company, and ex-Governor Allen C. Beach ar- rived to-mght, WHAT THE POLITICIANS KNOW, Thero 18. a good deal of talk among politicians them selves respecting the campaign, although publicly they profess to know very little about anything beyou ‘what they read in the newspapers. It is conceded on all sides that the State of New York 18 absolutely esse: tial to the success of the democracy in November, and on this account, gs the city must furnish the majority to swell the aggregate of the State, tho actual con- dition of afuirs” in Tammany ‘Hall 1s viewed with apprehension. Tildon’s friends claim that there should be a reorganization which would establish more pertect harmony than can exist while John Kelly and Augustus Scheil continue their control. They say such a roorganization wou'd impart a vigor to the campaiga, which it lacks at present aod which is important, ius: much as the fight is an offensive one on the part of the democracy, whose great battle cry is “reform.” Such a reorganization would also, it is said, materially strengthen Governor Tilden chances outside the State, because it would be regarded as another practical illustration of bis determination to purity and improve the party organization. It is asserted that there is little prominent opposition im tho party to Tilden, now that he ts the standard bearer of the national democracy, aud that whatever personal feelings have heretoture existed will be sunk in the one great desire to achieve a party victory in Novem- ber. THE DOUBLE-IKADED FINANCIAL MONSTER, Those republican politicians who happen to be here look on at the course of events with a quiet satisiac- real or aasumed. They feel contident enough headed financial monster o: the democ- racy will effect the ruin of democratic hopes. They say tbat, while the republicans are a unit on the financial ‘question, the democracy is irreconcilably at issue With itself, and, consequently, that ‘a house di- d against itself cannot stand.” A prominent repub- lican here gives it as bis opinion that Governor Tilden will write a wordy letter, im which be will skilfully dodge the financial question and say some beautiiul things about reform. In this connec- tion he alluded to the announcement that by a revised decision of the Court Governor Tilden is required to answer the suit of the Railroad Company against him to recover money alieged to have been illegally taken us counse! fees, on the frst Monday in August, instead of the first Mon- day in October, and said the republicans did not in- tend to let Tilden off so easy as some might tmagine. “Suppose,” he said, ‘that announcement bad been made about Blaine, wouldn't the democrats howl? Now we don’t intend to take all the biows without giv- ing some, It is no secret that the meoting of Tilden and Hen- dricks here to-day is for the purpose of coming to a mutual understanding upon therr letters of acceptance, Governor Hendricks has been waiting tor Tilden, and both have been waiting to sce what action, if any, Con- greas will take upon the repeal of the Resumpuon act, THK LETTERS OF ACCRPTANCE. Advices received to-day from a prominent democrat in Washington indicate an early adjournment of Congress, probably without “any action on that bill Tilden’s ‘frignds claim that Hen- committed to their side on the financial question, In fact, some of ttrem go so fur as to assert that Hendricks’ position on the money 1ssue has been misunderstood, and that he always has been a hard money man. ’ Hendricks himself 1s getting impatient at the delay in regard to the letters of acceptance, and when Tilden is ready to issue his Hendricks will im- mediately follow suit. Both letters will be ready early next week, OUT POR A DRIVE. After dinner this oveuing Governor Tilden and Gov- ernor Hendricks went out for along drive and did not return until lute. They had a long conversa- tion, the result of which, it 1s” announced to-night, 1s a perfectly harmonious understanding upon tho points which havo, seemed to be at issue. In con- trudiction of mauy statements it 13 positively asserted, upon the best authority, that there has really never Deen any serious diflerouce of opinion between Tilden and Hendricks upon any question involved in the cam- paign, and that the delay in the appearance of Governor ‘Tilden’s letter of acceptance 1s wholly due to the fact that the Governor has becn so pressed with other ofMfcial business that he has not bad an opportunity unt) recently to give the at- tention to his letter which so important @ document demanded, WHAT GOVERNOR MENDRICKS SAYS. Governor Hendricks speaks not simply hopefully, but very contidently, of the success of the ‘national demo- craic ticket in November, He thinks Goveruor Til- den {s 30,000 stronger ip this State for President than ho was for Governor. He has no fears of the result in Indiana, the democratic candidate for lead off with the State in October, thus paving the way for Tilden and bimself in November. Wilnams 18 a plain, solid, substantial man, not bril- Hiant, but reliable and honest, He is taltand tean and lank, and is to the democracy of Indiana what Lincoln was to the republicans of Ihnois. He is a Granger, and will receive considerable strength cultural interests of his State, and Goveraor Hendricks thinks there ts no doubt of is clection, He 1s also hopelul of a democrauic victory 19 Olio, a confidence which many other prominent democrats here do nob share, Governor, TILDEN’ AVATE CONPERENCH, Governor Tilden and 4 few leading democrats had a private confereuce to-night. Oue of them assures me as the result of a long conversation with the Governor that his letter of acceptance will take direct groand in favor of hard money, The uou-action of Congress in the repeal of the Resumption act is undoubtedly in ac- cordance with Tilden’s advica, The Governor bas come to the conclusion that a bold and decided stand in favor of hard money, as well as of reform, 18 the only position be can assume im the canvass with any chance of success. He could not at- ford to risk his chances in New York and other North- ern States for the sake of conciliating the West. If Hendricks is not willing to whee! into line Hendricks will have to look out for himseli Tbe repeated assertions of Governor Tikien’s friends that | there is no difference of opinion between him ernor Hendr.ck# as to the platiorm and ¢ proper conduct of the cauvass, lead to the conclu on that Hendrieks hws been Induced to adopt as far as possible Governor Tilden’y finanew! views, aad that Congress will adjourn withoat repealing the act pro- viding for resumption. However, the letters of acceptance will not be Issued for several days Mean- while Governor Tilden leaves here to-morrow, but will return soon again, Governor Hendricks will remain for some time longer, and until atier Governor liiden comes up again, ad HON, JARED C.
