Washington, November 24, 1875. Th. sadden loll is the Cuban utd Mexiout excitement hit oaated disappointment in certain qaertere, bat it i. en omen of food for .11 the beet iatereete of the country ud of tbe Republican The cm ai Republican of this morning bee not. line or word is regard to Spain, or Mexico.

On the oontrary, leading editorial headed: '-Confederate Repreeentation in the Amerioan ud nnder thia hewing raises iaaoe of rutty more lmportuce to the nation than the acquisition ot Cab. or the poseeeaion of the eilrer mines of Mexico. is to be hoped that the official organ of th. administration at th. Mat of government will keep thin one Isaac before th.

country util public sentiment cryatalizee around it in pnblie action, iby petition, by legislative protest, ud by the united ud unflinching opposition on the put of Republican members Ud Senators to uy farther advance of this Confederate power either in Congress or ont Of it. In this connection I wonld direct attention to the letter of yonr correspondent written recently from Boston, on thie same subject. In that letter it we. itated that the Legislature of Manaohneetta wonld, ittita winter, by formal "resolve," protest against the recognition of Confederate representation in the national Congreee. It was also stated that this protest wonld come up on the Mississippi question.

Here, then, wo have issue joined again between the Confederate league ud the national Republican party on an isene which cu no more he suppressed orevqded thuou he the school tie integrity of the national credit, or the question of negro serfdom, or ony other of the matters of principle which divide, by impassable golf, the Confederate-Oemocratio coalition irom the loyal masses of tbe United States. The Confederate representation in tbe Amerioan Congress most, and will, therefore, be wiped out, or it will wipe out the Union. The first step in thia process is to seoore tbe Presidency in 1876 for the Republicans. Mo "aide issue" should be allowed to divert the pnblie mind from the issue, now joined with the ConfederateDemooracy. The next will be to confirm ud protect the Kepnhiiou governments of South Carolina, Florida, Mississippi ud Louisiana in the American right of popular self-government.

Tbe next step will be the unseating of those Demoeratio alliea of the Confederate league who now hold seats in Congreee from Repnblicu diatriota. These things being accomplished, the Confederate repreeutatien in Congreee will disappear ud melt away frost work under tbe rays of a rammer sun. Mew mu from the South will then take the plaee of these revolutionary leaders of a desperate of polittul diplomacy. Will not the day that this ohuge be a bleeaad one for the Sontht Lot uy one who may he disposed to dispute the accuracy of these iorecastings of events to come, reflect for one moment what this Confederate rep rese tation in the Amerioan Congreee, from fifteen populous States, means; what it signifies; what it for; what it will, unchecked, lead to. It meus a trusfer of the Confederate Congress from Richmond to Washington it signifies a renewal within the Union of the sonfllot inaugurated in 1860 at Montgomery, AlabaaSa; it studs for Confederate rale by fraud ud terrorism in every late slave State of the Amerioan Urdu; it will lead, if meheched, to the overthrow of the Amotion Union ud the Inal achievement of Confederate independence.

I them assertions without the feu of sneoeesfnl contradiction. Mo honest ud iatalligut Confederate will dare to eontradiot them. Mor do I make these in tbe interest of the negro. Mot at all. I make them as facts, to be aooepted or rebooted by thorn who represent the North in this mighty controversy- Because the Amerieu negro has a ram destiny ud a sure future a freeman outside ol thie Union; but the Union itmlf oau bare no futon a mpublio independently of the negro ud the mom of popular liberty ud oivil equality before the law whloh ha represents.

It la aot the negro who to oh trial la this nutter. It to erael, aalfiah Anglo-Saxon money-loving nation which to on trial. The question between tha Southern Confederates ud the Northern Repnblieaas to, therefore, Amerieu to, vitally so. It onlmtaataa la the South in the majntontnee of the political ud civil rights of the negro oitiaen. It oulmlnntm at the nation', capital thia winter la ergultatton of th.

Hoorn of SopromntattvM of tho national tan. That organlzetion will ha out in all probability, by Confede rat es as unless pnblie sentiment manifests itself, to for the North, witnessing tbit, to yil without farther eonteet, or, ta uy, thus tar, hat no farther." Tho Presidential election of 1876 will show what the North will do on tho toane as that joined. B. A.pels turnu. The following appointments have been made by Governor Kellogg; Laden K.

Morrto, by Ullmg with a butcher's knife of Sarah or Georgia Jonm, at No. 256 St street. He was a roustabout or river man of tome kind, ud baa bmn away from New Orleans for some time. He waa mot to the Penitentiary for larceny. At about elevu o'olook Monday night ha to the house ud demuded Sarah, but waa told to go away.

Finding was not alone he went, after a conversation with Mr. Lonto Joseph, the ludlord of the bourn. At seven o'clock in the morning he sppeared sgsin ud called for Bailie. She, from inner room, said she did not wish to me him, and rushed into a back room, oloeing the door behind her. Morris drew his knife, made a pass at Joseph, who fled nnder the bed, and ranked alter her.

Ho bnrst open the door, Joseph oalling "murder" and running to tbe front door- As the poor girl ran from her assassin he caught her and drove the knife through her body from the baek. She was still able to run, and fled through the alley aoroes the street, trying to get into tho gate of No. 253. Thera she fell ud Morrto oame up to her. Again and again he stabbed her.

Leaving her, he tried to sharpen bto knife on the curbstone, ud returning, eat her throat, almost severing her head from her body, oato king her around the neck with his left arm while he did the ghutly deed. Then in a few momenta he was arrested by Officer Larkin, ud threw bto knife into the gutter. The nnfortnnste woman most have had some relatione with him in former years, bat wbat they were to nhdecided. He was a natural thief, ud by hie previous record was alio a bloodthirsty scoundrel, born ud brad. She was oonvicted of larceny in the Superior Criminal Conrt.

Two others were arraigned before tbe recorder, bat, giving bonds, jumped them. The charge wu made by one August Esler, who stated he had been called into a house, when he said he had bat eeventy-five cents; heard the blinds opened; told the girl, Sarah, there waa some one in the room, but wu assured by her there was no one, ud made the affidavit, March 16, 1874, that he had bmn robbed ot $100. She was sentenced, May 16, to six months in the Parish Prison. The iaet that she was not sent to tho Penitentiary indicates a conclusion of the judge that she wu not the moot guilty party. The statements of the murderer, mads almost immediately after the crime wu committed, ehow a brutal predetermination Utterly loot to all considerations of anything but himself and passion, he states that he loved the woman, ud resolved she should love no one elm.

He said he had waited all night, ud then got a batcher knife at Poydraa with whioh he stabbed her many times as he could, ud tried to out her throat. He wu glad to hear she wu dead. He related tbe cirenm stuccos he circumstantially as they are related above, and declared he had no desire to live or to have a trial. He had resolved to kill her and did it. Dr.

Shomaoher made an examination and found fifteen or sixteen wounds, at least three or four of whioh would have bmn mortal. Coroner DeBluo immediately proceeded to hold inqneet, in whioh the testimony of Louis Joseph ud Oflioer Larkin waa given substantially as in the preceding account. An affidavit wu made by Coroner DeBlue charging him with murder. Oar Bracial Cossmlsotaaer. Awara of the dmp internet taken by the government and people of the United Statu in actual condition of tha border warfare on tha Bio Grande, ud aiming to promote the of international peace by ascertaining ud diffusing an authentic knowledge of the dlflenitiea whioh embarrass both governments, we have decided to dispatch a member of our editorial staff to investigate all points essential to elucidate the rattject, aad to report to onr constituents, the of this city and elsewhere.

We have accordingly designated ud appointed as special commiaaioner ad hot Mr. Tim H. Draper, a gentleman whom ww commend to all in authority on tho Bio Grude, as well as to all who may have important facta to oommunioate. Mr. Draper was formerly judge of the Municipal Police Court in this oity.

lie will be found an intelligent end experienced mu, accurate, calm, courteous, discreet, ud aooessible to all who may desire to eommnnioate with tho pnblie through the ooluus of tha RaruBUCAM. We shall onr friends abroad will regard him a special emissary dispatched to obtain information for advutage of all. Any oommnnioatad, aoutmtoa or hospitalities extended to thia gentlema as the special commissioner of the Kspdbucah, will be acknowledged aad, far as possi hie, reciprocated. Wo an gratified in being enabled to that Mr. Draper has been duly authorised, daring his absence, to roper sent Sonthora Industrial ud Commaroial Exposition ta be hsM in oar oity, sad that ha win be bearer of commissions prominent citizens of tho Moxlou border, ud atoo, with that oomity whioh should distinguish the commercial authorities of two friendly countries, for suoh gentlemen of Matamoru, Chihuahua, Hu Lola Potest, Monterey end such other Mexiou cities may oome within the social scope of Mr Draper's mission.

re eager for fray, and tha wtafc Ti melts wtil tell tbs We an likely to have Ojrphua" enough now to satisfy all demands for the parentless, dramatic arttole. Tha great play to to be noted on Thursday night both at the Academy of Music and at the Varieties Theatre. It to a free fights with strong aoting backers on both sides. Tbs pieoe is free all exeept the manager ot the St Charles Theatre, who made the first attempt to play the drama. The eoming performances will make the legal entanglement beyond onraveling.

The leeeee of the Varieties Theatre, claiming to ropnaut the interest of Shook Palmer, wu instrumental in putting injunction on tho performance the play by the Coggswell cum puy at the St. Chailee. This was on the ground taken that Shook A Palmer were sole owners in tbto'eountry, and bad disposed of the right to play the piece in this oity to the Forbish Comedy Company. Mr. Furbish, it is believed, inertly curchased that right from Shook It Pa me; ol the Union Square Theatre.

Whether or i ot those gentlemen were tbe owners of tho pieoe is to be determined at some time in tbe dim future. Mr. Furbish had dates at tbe Varietiee in February next, ud the "Two Orphue" wu his specialty. In the meantime comes a compuy under the indirect muagement ot Mr, Daly, who in New York is a rival muager to Shook It Palmer. Mr.

Daly ou write uy pieoe, ud he hae written the 'Two Orphans" for his traveling oompuy. This oompany, on the road with the "Two studs opposed to Shook It Palmer ud to the Furbish compuy iu the same manner as does McKee Rukin, or Mr. Coggswell, or uy one of the dozen other managers playing the pieoe. The leseee of the Varietiee Theatre espoused tbe eauae of Shook Palmer, ud setopped the Coggswell party. Now cornea tbs Daly Company, with no auction from the Union Square manager.

The Daiy oompany will play the "Two Orpbua" at the Varieties Theatre, providing the lessee of the Varieties, representing the interests of Shook Pal mer, ud of Forbish, not get out in unction on himself, ud prevent himselt from playing the piece. Mr. Bidwell gets his plum without litigation. To the publie the legal squabbles are now of no particular interest. The publio will see the piece, ud go where it is played best.

In equity it wonld appear that Mr. Furbish is the injured mu. He waa led to buy a right whioh those who sold the same to him could not protect him in tht use of, and he must now look to Shook It Palmer for damages. When he wute another French pieoe he will probably capture it irom the Frenoh himself, ainoe the translation of Frenoh plays appear, to be lair game for all. -Harder la tileklaad Parish.

In the 8tate News column ot the Refob ucah announcement has already been made of the killing, in Riehlud parish, of W. L. Wilkinson by Henry Hart. A letter from Mr. Wiley P.

Hangham, editor of the Richlud Beacon, written from Rayville to a distinguished citizen, characterizes it ae a sickening murder. Mr. Wilkinson waa quietly at work picking peas, when Hart walked op to him ud infiioted two mortal wounds with shots from a navy revolver. He died the next day. Hart is supposed to be in Riohlud or Onaehite parish.

Mr. Mugbam suggests that the Governor should issue a proclamation of reward for his apprehension, ud probably that will be attended to. But so atrocious a murder should enlist the energies of every oitizen without any all that he should be brought to jMtioo. Mr. Wilkinson's widow, so Mr.

Mugham says, hae already offered a reward of 8500. It to, or should he, object with all, equally with her, to avenge the mardor of her hosbud. If a reward to offered by tbe Governor, so mnoh the better for those who do their dnty, hat the fagitivw Should be suceerv folly searched for without uy other in eutive than abhoranee of his crime. should enlist the energies of evi for the oaptura of the oaSaasin reward. It is to the intstset of la spite of the storm tjse "Big Bonanza' drew a Urge audienee at the Varieties Theatre last night.

Tbe comedy will he repeated at the matinee to-day and also thie evening. Mias Minnie Palmer's "Little Silver piece will be played at the Aoadetny this noon ud night. Mr. Lawnnoe Barrett appeared at the St. Charles Theatre last night in the favorite play of "Roaedais." whioh pieoe will coutitate the bill to-day.

William Alexander, for petty larceny, year. of The Levees. The inter-State levee committee met yesterday, Governor Hebert presiding, and adopted the following memorial to Congress: To the the President of the Senate and of the House of of tbe united in Oongreaa assembled: At an inter-8tate levee convention whioh met at Vicksburg on November 2, 1875, and in whioh the Staten of Mississippi, Louis iana, Arkansas and Missouri were represented by delegatee, the undersigned were appointed to memorialise the Congress of the United States in regard to the protection and reclamation of the alluvial lands of the Mississippi river from annual inun dation. To the performance of the duty imposed upon them they do most earnestly pray, and in the name of the people of these five great States, petit.on you to enaot suoh laws and make such appropriations as may be necessary to enable tne proper departments of the national government to taxe charge of, construct and maintain the levees necessary for the protection of the lands now subject to annual overflow by the Missiasippi river. They will not attempt in this memorial to give the many reasons why the people of these States think that the government of the United States should assume this work, for this subject is not a new one in your honorable bodies, and both there and elsewhere hae been under disoussion for years.

Suffioe it to say here that the work is a national one, because many sovereign States have a common interest in it, and because no State acting in its individual capacity oan perform the work, and because the river against whose waters these riparian States claim protection is, as it has been aptly called, "an inland sea," "an ooean river," upon whose bosom floats the commerce of a mighty empire, directed, governed and protected by the strong aim of the national government. Farther, they would respectfully represent that railway transit has become the most important faotor in the promotion of inter-State oommeroe, and that the States lying south of the Ohio river oan never enjoy safe and uninterrupted railroad facilities and connections cast and west across this overflowed basin, extending north and south over 600 miles, while this vaat delta is subject to annual inundation. Ae to the entire feasibility of the work, and inoreese in national wealth whioh the completion of these lines must bring, we have only to refer yon to the statistics collected and published in the able and exhaustive report made to the last Congress by the United States board of engineers appointed by the President of the United States under an aot of Congress to investigate this subject (H. Forty-third second ses Ex. Doo.

No. 127), and to tne Senate report No. 170, Forty-second Congress, second session. Your memorialists will not presume to suggest any of the details of the legislation prayed for, but simply express the hope and desire that the national government may take entire obarge of the levees and perform the work through the instrumentality of its own officers and engineers. In conclusion, these five sovereign States ask that the national government, their common head and representative, eltead to their oitisens the protection and relief they oan not themselves afford to them.
