Judge Stinly. Matthews who return@1from New Orleans to Cincinnatti on Monday, will give to the public bis views soon. His statement will have weight withthe people. The Gazette says it isthe opinion of Judge Matthews that with a free and fair ele ction, Louisiana ,is_ andoubtedly Republican, and a fair canvass, according to law,, right and ‘justice, will give the State to Hayes, The élection, be says, ap conducted in rapy parishes, was not fair, and wasa fraud on popular government. These returns show @ majority for the Democrats, but a revision of the returps are required by law, and will give the Republicans a decisive ma-, jority. The mistakes in® regard to Republican Electors in» one-parish will not amount to! over 400 votes, and will not affect the géneral ‘result, The Returuisg Board, he believes, will act fairly and impoftially, ‘following the letter and the spirit ‘of the law. The evidence in regard to violence and intimidation in maby of the parishes is overwhelming. As un illustration, there may be mentioned the case of one voting previnet, where colored men were marched to the polls between lines of armed Democratic ticket and then march . to another place where they received certificates that they hud s9 voted, from violence. He says that the action of. the Returning Board ought to give the State to Hayes, and that it ought to settle the controversy in the minds of all fair and intelligent He firmly believes that the Democrats as a party will 80 ‘acvept the result. The evidence of fraud, violence and intimidation, however, will be fully reported, and the people of the'’aNorth will have, an opportunity to judge for theuselves.

Judge Stinly. Matthews who return@1from New Orleans to Cincinnatti on Monday, will give to the public bis views soon. His statement will have weight withthe people. The Gazette says it isthe opinion of Judge Matthews that with a free and fair ele ction, Louisiana ,is_ andoubtedly Republican, and a fair canvass, according to law,, right and ‘justice, will give the State to Hayes, The élection, be says, ap conducted in rapy parishes, was not fair, and wasa fraud on popular government. These returns show @ majority for the Democrats, but a revision of the returps are required by law, and will give the Republicans a decisive ma-, jority. The mistakes in® regard to Republican Electors in» one-parish will not amount to! over 400 votes, and will not affect the géneral ‘result, The Returuisg Board, he believes, will act fairly and impoftially, ‘following the letter and the spirit ‘of the law. The evidence in regard to violence and intimidation in maby of the parishes is overwhelming. As un illustration, there may be mentioned the case of one voting previnet, where colored men were marched to the polls between lines of armed Democratic ticket and then march . to another place where they received certificates that they hud s9 voted, from violence. He says that the action of. the Returning Board ought to give the State to Hayes, and that it ought to settle the controversy in the minds of all fair and intelligent He firmly believes that the Democrats as a party will 80 ‘acvept the result. The evidence of fraud, violence and intimidation, however, will be fully reported, and the people of the'’aNorth will have, an opportunity to judge for theuselves. The members of the Returning Board are fair meu, and are as fally eutitled (6 confidence as any Board which might be selected fur a like purpose in this city. Dispatches . are sent to tbe North from New Or' leans by the Democrats of that city, telegraph. It cannot be denied by candid and fair-minded men that Louisiaua is a Republican State, and that an election conducted without intimidation or fraud would have so resulted beyond dispute. ‘[bis is known to Democrats as well as Republicans, but the . former bave set out to earry the State for Tilden at all hazards, and without regard to law, justice or human life, aud they are not now disposed to give it up.
