Washington, Dec. 14. The message of the President in re ganrto his stationing troops at Pe tersburg during the late election, is regarded as unusually insolent and mendacious. It is accompanied by a number of minor reports and by let ters from District Attorney Lewis andTJnited States Marshal Ramsdell. It is evident that these two parties worked up the affair. There are affi davits of George F. Marble, Moses Norman, William White, David R. Butts, William Green, and others, of the usual cross-mark style. Copies of Virg nia newspapers and some print ed orders-from the War Department are among the documents transmit ted. Tbe letters of the Federal offi cials to Taft stated that troops were necessary to prevent bloodshed and secure a rarreleotion in Virginia. C. P. Ramsdell appears as the principal manipulator of this movement. His letter is a filthy Blander of the Vir ginia people. L. Q. WV Special to the Richmond Dispatch. Washington, D. C, Dec 14. A Virginia Republican who c tiled on the President yesterday, and at 1 t.-rwrdw Q" Zach. Chandler, sa8 he found them very decided in their conviction that Hayes has Wen elect ed, and that he will be inaugurated. He says the President does not anti cipate any formidable opposition, and that alter tbe 4th of March Grant will make a tour in Europe. Tbe coolest heads among the De mocrats assert that their success only depends upon uuirjf of purpose and absolute concert of action, and that they claim to have. There is good reason, too, to believe that three, and perhaps four, of the most influential Republican Senators will astonish the country when th6 crisis comes by assuming a conservative position at variance with the revolutionary schemes of their party. A Democratic member who never loses his wits assured me to day that he had good authority for believing the Senators referred to would take thtt course. If this be true, and if commercial and moneyed people of the North will meet in public assem blages and denounce the revolution ary schemes of Grant and Chandler, they may be induced to pause. Al ready strong pressure baa been brought to bear upon tbe Republi cans referred to to induce lern to standby their party; and, relying upon tbe effective use of promises of power and patronage from the Gov ernment, and wholesome exercise of the party lash, Republican politicians Bout the idea of any serious defec tion iu their ranks. Attorney General Taft said last night iht there is no way in which the vote of an electoral college can be disturbed in case a member there of was under disabilities at the time he east his vote.' Once the act is ac eornplinhed, and the college has ful filled its raiHiou, nothing can be done to disturb the verdict. Prior to tbe ote legal step" can be taken in the -Mae of a disabled elector, .DjUt not after Jhe act is accomplished. Uel'ford will be admitted,the Demo rata say, but they seem to take time o tjet ready before letting mm in nim in. developed 1 ersistH4nquirv has 'the fact that bv General Sherman's command an order for the transfer of Hancock to-j.be West was made out and Hgned, but was destroyed,, and vert ti e stub torn from the order b .,k. ISpecial to tbe Bdtiraoas Hun Washington, Dec. 13. Some of tbe Democratic members &rca little more hopeful to-night. They say that La ease of the eventful passage of tbe bill they believe it not impossible that enough Republican Senators mlorht. tin found to unite with the Democratic Senators in counting tbe Tilden vote from Loui siana at least. . LOU INI AN A. Mr. John J. Long, Republican Can !( for the Lecflaiorf, Con rsea hi iereat tm the HeiurnlDE Board, and Declines the Fraudu lent Certificate of Election. Db Soto Parish, La., Deo. 12. Hon. J. Madison Wells, President of the Louisiana Returning Board: I have learned that your honorable body has returned me as elected to tbe Lower House of the Legislature from tbe parish De Boto. Permit me to return my thanks for the honor but at the same time per- uiib me i say mat l am unwilling to accept the position. I am a Repub- lioau from the firm conviction that the principles of that nartv Ht. tor tne whole countrv. It is alan true that I was the regular nominee of the party in the parish of De Soto for the Legislature, and did more than any member of the party in that parish to organise it and ad vance its interests; but, sir, knowing as I do that I was fairly defeated at the polls, no intimidation or fraud having been practiced by the oppo site party at any precinct in .the parish, so far as 1 have been able to ascertain after a thorough investiga tion, my self -respect will not permit me to accept the position. l hope you will pardon me for ta king a step that at first glance may oe inougni calculated to cast some discredit upon the party with which l have attached myself, but I am a planter, not a politician; all my inte rests are here; and, sir, I catinot be neve the good of the State or of the National Republican party can be promoted by returning as eleoted a candidate so clearly defeated as my self. In fact, I am convinced that very much of tbe disturbance that has prevailed throughout the State for several years past is iustly attributa- oie to tne tact that in many parisnes men not elected by the people have been returned as elected and main tained in office by the power of the government: I must believe that you and your associates have been gravely deceived as to the manner in which the late oanvass and election in De Soto was conducted, and as to the result. Very respectfully, John J. Long. Tbe Vole on the Edmunds Reaotu- t on. iSpecial to tbe Baltimore American. Washington, Deo. 13.

Pardoned. Sheriff Manning has received official no tification from Gov. Brogden of the pardon of C. H. Strode, convicted at tbe June term of the Superior Court for this county of assault and battery on tbe person of Mr T. P. Sykes, the circumstances of which case are familiar to our readers, and who was sentenced by Judge McKoy to confine ment iu the Penitentiary for two years. It will be remembered that at tbe time of Slrode's conviction his counsel moved for a new trial, which was refused, whereupon an appeal was taken to the Supreme Court. This tribunal not yet having considered tbe case, some surprise is manifested at tbe action of the Governor in pardoning Strode under the circumstances, and it is even hinted that some steps wili be taken looking to the constitutionality of His Ex cellency's interference while the matter was pending in the Supreme Court.

The special committee to whom was re- I f erred the petitions of certain parties for a remission of city taxes, reported, stating that they bad consulted with the City At torney as to the power of the Board to grant, said petitions, and that bis opinion was to the effect that the Board bad no right to remit taxes under such circum stances. The petitions were therefore not granted. , Petition of James Jones and others, for the privilege of turning out in masque and costume on Christmas day was not granted, as being a violation of tbe lnw prohibiting any person from appearing iu disguise on any public thoroughfare. Application for a lamp on the corner of Harnett and Seventh streets, was referred to tbe Committee on Lights. It was resolved that tbe jury, appointed some time since on the part of tbe city to assess the benefits and damages caused by the paving of Mulberry street between Front and Water streets, are hereby in structed to proceed at once to comply with their duties according to law. The jury on the part of the city to assess tbe benefits and damages caused by the improvements on Walnut, between Nut and Front streets, consists of L. E. Rice, Geo. Chadbourn and Owen Burney. Tbe jury on tbe part of tbe city to assess the benefits and damages caused by the improvement of Nutt, between Mulberry and Brunswick streets, consists of J. H. Chadbourn, J. W. Perdew aad Harding Johnson. . The Board then took a recess, subject to the call of the Mayor. , Depredations by Hogs Bunnlng at Large In the streets Serious pena nce. The depredations of swine upon the pro perty of citizens have frequently formed tbe subject of complaint through the city papers.. The latest case to which our at tention has bees called is an exceedingly aggravated one. On Monday night last a large hog, running at large in the streets, forced his way into the premises of Mr. George Chadbourn, corner of Front and Nun street;, by inserting his snout under the gate and lifting it sufficiently to remove the fastenings, and played havoc with tbe flower garden. Complaint was made of the serious annoyance and injury thus ex perienced by Mr. Chadbourn, and an.officer was sent to notify tbe owner of tbe beg that be must keep the animal securely con fined on bis premises, when it was found that the owner bad already apparently taken proper precautions to prevent the animal from doing any further damage. It appears, however, that during Thursday night the hog was again at large on the streets, and succeeded in making another raid upon Mr. C.'s garden, bavine been found on tbe premises yesterday morning, and on this occasion be completed the work of destruction, ruining the garden to such an extent as to render it of no further service, Mr C, we understand, estimating the actual damage sustained through the depredations of his swinish tormentor at not less thaa from $300 to $400. About a year ago Mr. C.'s garden was subjected to similar inva sions by the same implacable usurper, but without sustaining such serious injury. It is reported that Mr. Cbadboorn is seriously contemplating a suit against the city for damages. It is complained by the authorities that hogs are kept up during the day, and as a general thing are turned loose at night and on Sundays, when there is no chance of their being captured and impounded. It is said that some of the brutes are so nicely and scientifically drilled that, at tbe first approach of daylight, they scamper for home. . it j ' School Room Robbed. The schoolroom of Miss Eelley, located in the basement of the Front Street Metho dist Church, was entered through one of tbe windows, a few nights since, and rob bed of nearly all the books which had been left there by the children, while books that Were not taken away were mutilated or destroyed to such an extent as to render them of no service. The stove-pipe was also broken down aud other malicious mis chief perpetrated. There is no clue to tbe rascally perpetrator of the outrage. . . , mi The Connty Work. House. Mr. B. F. Mathes, Superintendent of the Cou nty Work House, has notified 'Squire VanAmringe, one of the Board of County Commissioners that he will retire from his position on the 1st of January at which time bin con tract expires. The work house wil) probably be abolished and the prison ers heretofore confined in that institu tion put to work on the public roads. There are now only six or seven prisoners under Mr. Mathes' charge. . superior Court. It will be remembered that the January term of the Superior Court for this county, which commences on the 8th of the month, continues for four weeks. Each separate list of jurymen drawn by the Board of County Commissioners, an A published In Hir paper yesterday, will therefore have two Weeks to serve Coronei'w Ibquest, ' Coroner Hewlett held an inquest Thurs day afternoon oyer the body of a small col ored child, aged about eight months, that .was found dead in its bed that morning, at the : residencV of ffs parents, near the Messrs.
