The New York Herald claims, that
the report will be very faiot-alrle to
the Qouservativcs, showing that no
banditti exist in L-iuisians, that the
State is at peace, that at the last
.0ection very few republicans were
intimi lated', and that manny degro
crats wero kept away from the polls
by fed*bral soldiers who had warrants
for their arrest ; that the ioturning
bo1rd iAted fraudulently and olandes
iinelly,and that the white league is
composed of the best oitizens of the
State, numbering no rowdies among its
members, and that it is organized to
keep, the peace, in the worthlessness
of the metropolitan police.
