The Louisiana State Central Republican Committee have united -frith every Federal office-holder in the State in declaring on paper that he is to? tally unfit for the position he holds, and re? quest his removal. -The New York papers say the town elec? tions throughout the State show handsome .Democratic gains. The great revival te not confined to any particular section, but has broken out in the north and west as well as the east. In Oneida County there is a gain of four Democratic supervisors; In Renssalaer of two; in Ulster of one; they also carry fifteen ?out of the twenty-five towns in Erie, and many towns have gone Democratic this year that have been opposition since General Taylor's time. Thc City of Elmira gained a substantial Democratic victory after one of the most spirit? ed and obstinate fights ever waged in a politi? cal contest, and the fruits ol the struggle in other localities are most encouraging. -The Carnival ia New Orleans closed bril? liantly. Those weird ones, "The Mistick Krewe of Cornus,''. whose procession, tableaux, and ball on Mardi Gras night are looked forward to as the great sensation of thc carnival, se? lected as a subject for their entertainment this . season "The History of Louisiana from 1539 -to 1815," each epoch being illustrated with -great taste and effect, first by a procession .through thc streets, lighted up by innumerable lamps, and subsequently by a series of beauti? ful tableaux, in which were grouped very ar t Isiically the various historical characters, from D?Soto to Jackson, connected with that State. Thousands in the city and from many South? ern and Western cities besides witnessed the gorgeous pageant, and about fifteen hundred of the favored few were invited to witness the tableaux at the cosy little Varieties Theatre -and enjoy the ball afterwards. Thus closed the most attractive season since thc war. -The New York World has an extraordinary sensation in Its Paris letter of February 21st, published Saturday Acccording to the gossip of the French Salons, the Emperor, Napoleon III, died on the 8th of September last, under the knife of Surgeon Ricord, and in his place there reigns the Prince Imperial, as Napoleon IV, with Empress Eugenic as Regent. The story runs that a near relative of the Emperor, though not in the line of succession, and bear? ing a close resemblance, appears in the place of Napoleon on the few occasions on which he is supposed to appear in public. The correspon? dent says the plan originated, with the late Emperor, who feared European complications, and that before his death he received a promise from England, and it is is believed from Rus? sia, that tiley would aid in maintaining the Prince on the throne. The letter gives various reasons for crediting the story, and says it ex? plains the recent change of policy on the part of the French Government. Nevertheless it appears very like an easily constructed canard. -As thc time draws near for the trial ot .Daniel McFarland, Tor the killing of Albert D. Richardson, in November last, public interest in this celebrated case is revived, and public .anticipations is keenly aroused by the proba? bilities of-startling disclosures, which have fbeen openly hinted at. The counsel engaged :for the defence are Messrs. John Graham, ^Charles S. Spencer, and Eldridge T. Gerry, all gentlemen of well-known legal attainments, and all remarkable for pertinacity in behalf of .their clients. The prosecution will, of course, t>e conducted by Judge Garvin, the district at? torney, and in view of his well-known dislike for the introduction of private counsel, it is probable that no attorneys outside of the district attorney's office will take any promi? nent part in the conduct ot the case for the people. The evidence thus far taken in pre llniinary examinations by tbe prisoner's coun? sel has been very voluminous. An immense number of private examinations have been made, and the investigations has extended over a very large range of topics and of years, some commissions tor taking testimony having been seut as far as Europe, -Another Arctic expedition to the North Pole is contemplated by the indefatigable ex? plorer, Captain Hall, who is now in Washing? ton, endeavoring, a:ul with every prospect of success, to obtain a suitable appropriation to provide lite necessaries fer his voyage. He in? tends to lit out a steam propeller of one hun? dred and fifty tons, and a topsail schooner of ono hundred and twenty-five tons. His route, as now projected, will be into Jones' Sound, and thence, ns sea and land may permit, up towards the Pole. After getting the vessel as far as practicable, he proposes to secure them in harbor, making the rest of the distance by means of the Esquimaux dogs and sledges. Thc object of the voyage is ol a three-fold character : first, for a geographical discovery; second, for the advancement of the interests of science: and third, tor command. If he cannot get the money to do this, be will try to have a government vessel detailed to carry him as far as Hartstene Bay, lat. 78 deg. 17 min. N , and to leave him to make his headquarters there, ne hopes by such aid to "accomplish the determination of his soul," which is "to place his foot on the northern extremity of the axis of the globe." Senator Patterson, of New Hampshire, will shortly present a bill to aid the explorer, which will give him, It is said, an appropriation of $150,000. Thc New Apportionment of Represen? tation. The new State Constitution provides that j tho House of Repr?sentatives shall consist of one hundred and twenty-four members, apportioned among the several counties ac? cording to the number of inhabitants in each; olso, that each county shall have at least one representative, and that any defi? ciency in the whole number of representa? tives be supplied by assigning additional representatives ta the counties having the largest surplus fractions. For the purpose of correcting the apportionment made by the Constitutional Convention of 1868, a census of the State was ordered to be taken in 1869, and it was also ordered that an assignment of the representatives, according to the census, be made at the session immediately after its completion. In accordance with this direction, the taking of the census was begun last year, but no general result was obtained until just about the time of the adjournment of the Legislature. No new apportionment, there? fore, was made, and unless an extra session be called, the October elections will be held under the old arrangement. It is neverthe? less highly important to ascertain the effect of the census, now completed, upon the differ? ent counties, and we, therefore, print the [ following table, which shows the number of | representatives now allowed under the con? stitution of 1868, and the number that will be allowed under, the census of 1870: TABLE KO. 1. Old. New. 1S68. 1870.

THE Boston Traveller, noting thc wealth that judicious advertising has brought to some men, says "that no advertisement has "had a greater or more unexpected result "than a little three-line notice recently ap? pearing in a corner of a New York paper. "It has created a sensation all over the "country, and has already driven three Con? gressmen in disgrace from public life, "while others are trembling in their seats '.from the same cause." Give a Fair Chance to All. It is argued in favor of opening cadetehip appointments to public competition that the plan has been already tried at West Point with great success. In 1863 fifty-three cadets were appointed in the usual manner, by Congressmen, and forty-six were picked from the ranks of the army, for good quali? ties and fitness alone. Of the fifty-three ap? pointed, fifteen failed at the first half-yearly examination, we are told; while of the forty six chosen for merit not one failed. Only a third of the fifty-three were graduated, but nearly all of the forty-six. Of about 5500 cadets who have entered West Point, about 3000 have failed. The institution, we aro told, does not graduate more than a third of those who are sent to it as cadets, and the professors expressed themselves as eminent? ly pleased with the forty-six young men sent to it from the ranks and chosen for merit. Sqnelchlng a. City Government. The Radicals of Louisiana have devised the boldest and most direct plan that bas yet been tried for the purpose of robbing the people of the right of self-government. The city election in New Orleans was to come off, according to its charter, the present month, and the city being Democratic, the result was by no means questionable. The carpet-bag and negro Legislature, however, resolved to defeat this and take away from the people the management of their own local affairs. They accordingly passed an act, a few days ago, postponing the muni? cipal election to November, abolishing the Councils, and authorizing the carpet-bag Governor to appoint a Mayor at a salary of j $7600 per annum, and seven bureaucrats, or commissioners, at "salaries of S5000 each, and with full legislative powers for the city. Under the charter, the Aldermen and Com? mon Councilmen of New Orleans served without remuneration. The citizens, of | course, are indignant at this outrageous and oppressive piece of legislative tyranny. ftgmooalg. REMOVAL.-H. KLATTE ?fe CO.
