Six hundred and four votes were polled in tho
Second Municipality yesterday, of which the
Wing may claim three TO one at least. The Lo.
co.'s make a great noise, but they have but few
voters. In the First Municipality about four hun
bred votes were taken.
The voting in the Second Municipality yester-
day was much facilitated. Mr.. Grymes moi
there to brow beat and question voters, and Judgs
Buchanan had learned something from his expe.
rieace Of one day. The facilities to entor the Hal
are not, however, yet quite sufficient; strong
guard should be placed at the outside door, to pre-
ven, rush, OF which one or two were attempted
yesterday.

AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE.


This mornings dawn ushers in tho glorious an
niversary of our National Independence. 1t was
on the memorable 4.h Of July, l776, that the
Wings of America proclaimed liberty and free
dom to the American people, and swore eternal
enmity to all tyran,s, prohgate rulers, and corrupt
governments 1t on this holy day that the
patriots of the American revolution threw off the
yoke of despotic power, and laid the foundation OF
Republican government 1t devolves upon their
posterity 10 maintain this form Of government in
its purity and administer it wisely.
Itwasthe bad fortune of Louisiana at the time our
Independence was proclaimed to exist the pro-
vince of foreign despo,ic power, and to be denied
the proud distinction of coming into the American
family with the original states. But she has since
been incorporated into the Union and taken hei
rank among the Independent States Of America
She too has felt the hand of oppression, and can
we appreciate the blessings of liberty and indie
pcndence. Let then the Wings of Louisiana
with all their WING brethren throughout the
Union, hail the 4h July, 1888, as the day of deli
vernnce from misruIe and mnstraion, and
unite in rc-esrablishing Wing principles and re-
storing this happy form of government to its ORR
ginal purity and prosperity. Let every Wing of
New Orleans unite in celebrating this anspicions
day, with that holy enthusiasm which inspired the
immortal authors of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence. Read the following letter from the chief
Of that patriotic band of patriots, and catch the
which it inspires. 1t breahes the true spirit OF
liberty and independence, conveyed in the Ian
guage of prophecy.
" PHLArELPIlGA, July 5, l776.

Festival. 1t ought to he commenorated as the
day OF deliyeruuce, by solemn acts Of devotion Il,
Almighty God. 1t ought 10 be solcnnized with

| and Standardization one end OF the continent
to the other, from thus time forward forever. You
will think me transported with snthuslasm; but
not. ! am well aware of the toll, aud blood
and treasure that 1t will cost to maintain this de-

Uaanimity. 1t is somewhat singular that the
two political parties should have agreed exactly
as to the conduct pursued on Monday at the polls
Observe how remarkably one of the loco foco Re-
solutions tallies with the feelings Of the great
Wing party. Here it is:
Whereas an unexampled and unparalleled
attempt has been made to interfere with the right
which has been recognized since the State of Lou
isiana was admitted into the Union: and a system
of Bullying and intrigue has been resored TO in
order 10 deprive the people of their just rights and
privileges
Could any Thing more correctly characterize the
abominable conduct pursued BY Grymes and his
conductors?

The Courier INSERTS that as the democrats have
the advantage in physical force the Wings should
be quiet, and not attempt to oppose their niquties
Good logic truly. But the sapiensy of the Courier
is almost n proverb. 1t has strung together more
nonsense in one article of yesterday than is gene
ally to be found in half dozen columns Il
speaks of !" the heo first days." which is rather
novelty in numbers. 1t states that the number
polled in the Second Municipality for Prieur,
Slidell, and Hoa, were great, beyond it's sanguine
expectation, and considering it not above one
fourth of the aggregate vote is more modest than
loco focos usually are. 1t also gravey asserts
that every vote given to the democrats in the city
will serve to augment the numb they will receive
in the state, which is metaphysical, and subtle
fact which never could have been elected by a
less brilliant genius than the learned Courier

~ The Courier talks of the Indignation of our
citizens as expressed Monday as 'mere idle
wind,'' and pretends to say it was perfectly disre-
garded! OF this the Courier is not qualified to
Judge since it was to be demonstrated by facts
articles of which il knows nothing. These facts
are brief and simple. On Monday the loco focos
exercised all their pernicous influence, and the
whole day only showed 25l Votes. The citizens
met, and spoke their will, and on Tuesday the
same Judges managed to poll over 600 Votes!! On
the first day, The Judge of the election interposed
every obstacle that ingenuity could devise, and
what he omitted, hired par,iznn lawyer nbnn-
dantly supplied. The people expressed their in
dlgnan determination to be no longer imposed on,
and forthwith the intrusive meddler was removed,
and the Judge found time to take three times as
many votes. Men who were born on the very
spot, and owned millions of property around it.,
were vexnously challenged as to their right of
voting on the first day, while on the second the
worthy Judges could find gu, that Brown began
with B, or Smith with S, without wasting half
an hour in turning to every wrong letter in the al
phahet.
