Evans, the late secretary of the Loyal League at Jackson, who has renounced his connection with the stinking institution, exposes the secrets and diabolical rules of the order, among which is the following oath: I do solemnly swear, in the presence of Almighty God, and these members, and on the Declaration of Indendenre, that I will protect and defend the principles set forth by the Repubjican party, and support none but reliable Union men for offices, and that I will defend the principles of the Republican party against all foreign and domestic foes, and pledge my life, sacred honor and danger, to face the dagger at my heart in defense of the principles of the League. fCml.OlU cedfij, futii'cfiL (f'ctmtViL aiO en CtiVcmx; f'CtllTCIL GN CIO ClfcttltA, UtJCUi- 0)6U cmio ant) tavlfiofotueio nuS cfafiuo YJli Now And Ponnanont Arrhngoment John Ray and the Press. fFrom tlio Now Orleans Bulletin. I And this is John Rav! The man who now out-Herods Ilerod in his Radicalism and in his desire to crush out of existence every relict of rebellion, and to oppress, ostracise and stane if possible, every while man who may come under the ban ofhis displeasure or whom he may brand as a rebel." The people of Louisiana expected better things of John Ray. They had hoped to And in him, in these trying limes, a friend, a true son, a statesman and champion.

But their hopes have been blasted. He has proved recreant to his duty, lie has lent himself to degrade his own people and to reduce them to a level below that of the negro, by the proscriptive measures be would force on the people by Radical legislation. lie has raised his piricidal arm against the breast of the mother th it nourished him, aud Louisiana, that would have heaped upon him all her honors, now bids him sorrowfully and reluct-tamly farewell! fFrom tlio X. 0. Times.

Slate Senator Itay, of Ouachita, has illustrated his apostacy to the great cause of constitutional liberty, ol which he formerly was an able and ardent upholder, by an unwarranted and indefensible attack in the Senate on the freedom of the press. In bis case vve have another example of the deplorable effects of evil associations in warping and corrupting mens minds. Senator Riy was an opponent of secession, but under Con'edcraie rule he held office, anil gave such aid nqd comfort to the Cunffiderate cause that when at the close of 'lie war, he was elected Representative in Congress from the Ouachita district, he could not take his seat because of inability to taka the required oath. The huge majority of the public press of Louisian will live down the calumnies of John Ray. The time is not far distant when he.

Serious AfEbay at Rayville. On last Saturday, the 15th there was an affray at Rayville, Storehouse parish, which resulted in the killing of Mr. Henry Kelley, a well-known citizen of the vicinity. As the circumstances have been related to us they are as follows: For 2 or 8 years there has existed a feud between a Mr. Haddox and Kelley, th? deceased, in reference to the price of some cotton purchased, about the time of the.

surrender, "by the latter of the former. On last Saturday, Haddox went to Rayville, accompanied by some friends, all of whom were armed. who had a little store at Ray-vilie was in town. Anticipating an attack he had loaded his shot gun and placed it convenient in the During the diy, some time Haddox had some angry words with Kelley, which ended, however, without any blows. Subsequently Haddox, with hjs friends, went to Kelleys, shire and accosted him agaiu.

During the conversation, Haddox, it is said began to draw bis pistol. Kelley, seeing the movement, raised his gun and fired both barrels at the party, doing no damage. Several shots were thjti at KeliSy, two of vhi-h took effect, one in the shoulder and the other in the thigh, causing Kelley to fall. Kelley thercup on expressed himself satisfied, and it was thought that the matter hid ended, when a young man named Thomas Johnson, who ap. pears tohave been of Haddoxs party, fired hif pistol at Kelley, as he lay wounded, killing him almost instantly.

Haddoxs brother, during the melee, was shot in the neck by some one ot the crowd gathered in town that day, but was not seriously hurt. Haddox and Johnson, we learn, have gone to parts unknown. These are the circumstances, as we have heard them from a reliable source, of this bloody affray. There are probably other facts connected with it we have heard nothing of. It will no doubt be fully inves igated by the courts.

Politics had nothing to do with the difficult tyas all thq parties were of the same way of thinking politically. JVegroes timed and JOrllling! MOVEMENTS OF THE MONROE RADICALS. We print elsewhere, and mean to keep printing, the oath administered to members of the Loyal League. The intent of that oath is palpable. It is no less than an oath to hind those taking it to use violence and brute force in order to secure success for the Radical party.

Monroe has had for some time one of th ese Union Loyal Leagues. It is nnw presided over, we understand, by an athletic negro named Abe Green, and meets nightly, in some shape or other, for what purpose God only knows Of late there have been nearly every nigh1 meetings of armed negroes back of town. It appeas to be a thoroughly org miz-d military organization. They drill; carry muskets and rifles; post sentinels, an these sentinels are in the habit of halting people passing. A prominent ncy-ro, an employee on the Railroad, within 48 hours, has boldly said that it is time for the negroes to rise; and that he will shoot the first white man who crooks his finger at him!" What does this mean 1 Ate we to witness the re enactment of some of the scenes at one time common in Jamaica? Whose life is to be taken? What white man 1s at the bottom of this conspiracy? What night is to be made hideous with yells, moans and crackling flames? We would advise the whites to be prudent, but beware! We want no riots and outbreaks, but let us stand ready to meet attacks, corns at what bourthey may.

P. McGuire, who was one of the most distinguished counsellors of the Louisiana bar. Mrs. M.has, ro doubt, the best collection of rare flowers and shrubbery in this section of our State. They have been collected from various portions of the world and have bees tended with delicacy an! care.

She hts, in her parlor, quite a museum of shells and Indian relicts, with other curiosities'of like nature the whole comprising an interesting and valuable collection. Birds of different sor.gs and feather twitter and warble in their cages arobnd the dwelling, conspiring to make it an attractive home for their mistress-and a place of real enjoyment for her friendd. VVe are pleased to know that Mrs. McGuire is possessed of the health and animation necessary to enjoy the many objects of pleasure an interest she has gathered together for solace in the evening of her useful life, and hope the hand' of time may hesitate long before it snaps the silver chord which binds her to the beautiful things of earth centering around her dwelling ET We enddayor this week, in a good-humored way, to demonstrate to the genius who presides over the murky destinies of the Intelligencer that an editor who takes service against his race and his country, has rather a thorny path to tread. If we lail in perspicu-ty.

as we may in teaching a pupil so unlearned and yet presumptuous, vve promise to atone for the failure by an increased dosa.oj'xytinacity. What we lack in simplicity, we will make tip in persistence. Correspondence of Ouachita Telegraph.) The Barbecue at tills- Alto, August 7, lSGff. Mr. Editor.

Our barbecue lias passed off quietly no murdering, no bloodshed demonstration, no Radicals sent home with bruised beads. The enthusiasm of the crowd was great, ana judging from the evidence before us yesterday, this parish will assist to s'vvell the majority for Seymour and Blair to such ail extent that the Radicals wi.l never, en-dpavor to gun a foothold upon the soil of old Franklin. Cols. Richardson and McEnery eniert lined the people with eloquent addresses After the above named speakers closed, some of Franklins oa sons were called on, and in the persons i Dr. Bulger, Maj.

Thomas Cook, and Col. Lem Bonghton, vve found we had men who were not afraid to raise their voices for the Scynuur and Blair ticket, ai in them vve found ve had political thunder near at hand to roll over any scalawags head tliat may deign to pre-sant itself. 1 had not the pleasure to hear the speakers but a few minutes, from the fact tlut my position called me to other duties. But all agreed that there vvas enough said by tliem to prove that the bondholder's candidate could not carry this parish. There was a great many colored voters here, and from all visible signs they were not afraid of being molested or hunted down by an infuriated mob Please say to the New Orleans Republican and Jlr.

Ike Crawford that there weie seven hundred negroes fed here yesterday by his blood thir-ty constituents. Did I say constituents? Yes, he is filling that position, but not by their consent. I say that if he vvas to run for an office in this parish now, he could not get one hundred votes. I consider him to be guilty of theft, when he appropriated to hiin-sel the honors and emo! lime nts of his present position. He has no more right to the office than you or I would have.

But enough of this creeping, squirming scalawag. Consign him to his fiends. A wo-d about the colored vole. IIovv will it go? I say for the Democratic party. Let Mr, Crawford bring on his hired friends and their bristling bayonets; 'no can not scare determined men away from the polls.

The negro has his eyes opened, and will walk up confidently and deposit his vote the right way. To you, Captain, we will call, to lay on with yonr untiring zeal; pour out to them their draughts that they may drink deep and long, a-1 be effectually cured of Radicalism. Try and redeem the character of old Ouachita by giving to Seymour and Blair one thousand majority. Depend upon it, the seventh or Boeufi River ward of Ouachita is all right. Go on with the good work, and may yon yet live to see your party cleanse anil purify the whole country.

Alto. Cg? We attended a barbecue given by Col. Tisdale, on his plantation, last Friday, to the negroes employed by him and to some other3 on neighboring places. It was not designed to have many present, it being simply a plantation holiday, but still the at-tendance included perhaps two hundred and fifty persons. Neat little speeches were made by Col's Tisdale aud McEnery, and a few remarks by Jack Thompson, a negro preacher.

Politics came up incidentally in the addresses, but the subject was not otherwise alluded to, although it appeared that the negroes were anxious to face about and take up the march with the party of law, order and honesty. We are confident of good results from the barbecue given by the Colonel, results beneficial not only to himself but to the public at large. IT Kentucky has gone 90,008 democratic.

ODELL, Monroe, August, 1W8 Afntlr Warmoths Letter to Si me days ago, Warmoth write a4eter to the President calling for troopariecatile, as he alleged, troops wpto neegwat to preserve order, suppress crime and prteok-ioil citizens. The action of that president is thus noticed by a city paper of the II tj instant: It will bo perceived by this raarliigs dispatches that Gov. YVarmoths hng epistorial gun has missed fire.

TheordcZ sent to Gen. Bach inan virtually ignore any pncti necessity as the Governor indicated, and merely provide for the prompt use of the troops naw in the department, in strict accordance with the Constitution and laws of the United. States. The attempt to set ftp a Radical Satrapy is therefore for the present huashed through the good sense and patriotism of the President -It now only remains to be seen whether it is to be renewed by tlio passage of the militia bill and the virtual recognition of the G. A.

R. If Gov. Warmoth is opt to a hint vve would suggest that the fewer bayonets brought into this political contest the jpelter. -1 Sustain that Sustain You. In times like these, when an unscrupulous tegifTaturo is subsidizing venal pressentl- editors to misrepresent, abuse and libel the people, behooves those poa whom these cowardly attacks flr made to stand by those journal hjtViaTe defended them in such tolire manner as to bring down directly the vindictifNoifgCahco of the Rad-ical "party anti tl(e fankest proscription ever atto mpted in a free country.

If the Democratic press could live on compliments, never had newspapers better claims to wealth than nro afforded -by the revengeful course of the Radical legislature of this State. It was a great compliment to that pres? for those men to invoke the sovereign powers of a great State to crush it out, and it ought to bo one of the strongest inducements for the people, whose rights and liberties were tints flagrantly violated, to stand up like men and, if need be, register their solemn oaths that the Democratic press shall not be muzzled or put down) but that its mighty arms shall be strengthened aud upheld, by voluntary aid if necessary, while it is championing the cause of the people and striking down the guant fiends who attack them. And we warn the people in time that they wjll need such champions to avouch for their fealty to law 'and for the honesty of their purposes. Radical lies will be more abundant in three mouths than blackberries were in June, and who will deny them when the local press lias been crushed into silence? And crushed it will be, we arc caudid in saying, unless the people come to its relief and support it as they would their ministers and their public servants of every kind Robbing the local newspapers of legal patronage was a vital blow to a great many journals in the Slate. It will starve them out, unless other patronage is provided.

Lot the people take warning, if they are resolved not to permit the Radicals to make a long stride towards a despotism, and devise measures to su.staiu the papers that sustain them. the victors belong the spoils, says the Intelligencer.
