HON CHARLES DERBIGNY..

EL t- EL
This veteran in the American cause, and our
noble standnrdsbearer in the present9canyass,
spent week in our parish, leaving usEfor home
last Saturday. During his stay he attended
public meetings each day Except Sunday,
addressing the people and winning their conf
dence, good opinions and admiration. We
ourselves beheld him with pride ard s~atisfac-
ton, and felt that we were right in battling for
him. For such a man we will ever do battle,
and will ever expect victory. Intelligent,
courteous, digni6ed, consistent and unwayers
ing, we deem him o ct man to stand ut the
helm and pilot the Ship Of State and that he
will be called to that high and responsible sta
ton, no one who has witnessed his reception
by the people Of st. Landry, and heard Of it in
the parishes below, can for 0 moment doubt.
That any honest and intelligent native Amefi-
who loves his country, can for q moment
hesitate between Charles Derbigny and r. G.
Wicklife, unless he be controlled by party
prejudice or corrupt and selfish motives, is a
matter Of establishment to us. The cause Of
the American party has been greatly strength
.ned here by. the visit Of Mr.. Derbigny, and
doubt not the first Monday Of November
will show hundreds Of votes for him and the
American ticket, outside of the order.

1t was with pleasure that we met, on Mon
day, of last week, at the meeting here, our fel.
low citizen Col. Lewis, who had just returned
from q second electioneering tour through The
northern parishes. The Colonel looked to b
in fine health and spirits, and gave us cheering
news Of, Sans family in North Louisiana.
They are not only numerous and daily growing
more 50, but there exists in the family the ut
most zeal and harmony. All the tricks Of the
enemy, and their efforts to excite the preiu-
dices u Protestants against Catholics, have
proved abortive. Our party are firm and uni
ted, not only standing upon the Louisiana
platform, but supporting in a body the nomi-
nees Of the 9TH of July convention.
Col.Lewis here and at other points in the
parish, where he has been present at public
gatherings, has had an opportunity Of meeting
a large number Of bis fellow citizens, with
whom he has placed himself right as regards his
position on the Kansas-Ne Nebraska bill, the
Missouri Compromise and other national
measures, wherein his sentiments have been
grossly and Intentionally misrepresented. That
Col. Lewis will be our next Representative in
congress We have not q shadow Of donbt and
that he will represent US faithfully and ably we
equally confident. We therefore indulge the
not unreasonable expectation that old st. Ian
dry will honor him with a majority that will
eyince her appreciation of him above Col.
sandidsgc, q man far bis inferior in point Of
talent, a native of another State, and a caterer
for the votes of foreigners.

The immigration Of foreigners to the United
States previous to the year 1900 amounted te
about $1,000 year ; from 1900 to 1910. 1000
9 year from 1910 to 1920, 1000 a year
from 1920 to 1880, 10000 a year from 1880

10000 a year and since 1850, the number
has increased to from 300, 0OOto half a million
q year, and in q few years at the same rate Of
increase, will amount to a millions year
Are not the abovestatistics startling? Can
any ndole born citizen reflect on the above
figures coolly and dispassionately and say that
there is no necessity for q native American
partys But, in The face of these facts, it is
asserted that W have no reason to fear foreian
influence in our country, because there arc, al
the present time, only about four millions Of
foreigners to about eighteen millions Of natives
True, the number Of foreigners is now com.
paratiyely small, but what will it be in the
next ten years at the same rate Of increase ? n
will then be too late to organize a native
American party, for the foreigners themselves.
without the aid Of a certain class Of natives
who are always found on their side, will then
nearly ortnumber us.
Reflect upon this, Americans Of st. Landry
We present you figures and facts. judge for
yourselves. Ifyou think the native American

Eacts before you, vote against us. But, if on
ne other hand, you come to the conclusion
hat it was high time for the formation Of ,

lish III Some days after, another ticket was
brought with the nar,es Of John Ray for Gov
esnor, H.N.FDubose for Auditor, and 8. N.
Smith tors Treasurer. The editors. refused TO
publish this revised edition, expressing OF the
some time some surprise that the name Of
Walter BOSNIAN had been stricken ont. To
theirsurprie, however, thirty.siz hours after.
wards, the pertinacious applicant presented .
third edition. with the name Of Walter Rose
man reestablished. This last ticket is the one
which Is advertised IS the { National Amerff
can Ticket" The editors Of the Creole CON
sented to publish Il. IL order that they might
expose the Ubiquitous fraud which was sought
Etosbe imposed upon the public. They hare
done SO fearlessly They are men Of response
bility and character; and their exposure has
had the twofold effect Of exhibiting to the pub
lie the very honorable tactics of the opposition
and blowing up the National American
Ticket
Now for the motive Of the circular in quesv
ton
Mr.. Alceste Roy, ns we stated above, was
induced to withdraw from the American party
in 81. Landry, in consequence Of the false repre-
sensations made to him by pretended friends.
Among other things be was told that the
American party were making war upon Cath
olics that there was division and distraction
in our ranks, and that all the Professionals
would vote for John Ray and not for Charles
Derbigny. Having made these representa-
lions, it became necessary to adduce some.
thing, in the shape Of evidence, in their yeriR-
cation. The circular in question was intended
for that purpose, w to prove that there was
q Protestant party ; that there were two tickets,
and finally that the Catholics were prescribed
and persecuted in Louisiana. But prior to the
reception Of the circular, the scales had fallen
from his eyes, and he aaw, in glaring colors,
the fraud Of which he had been the victim.
Similar circulars have no doubt been sent to
other persons for similar purposes and when
these fail to accomplish, as they will, their in
tended objects, other means equally worthy Of
honorable menl 2 will no doubtbe resortedto.
Have the ~oppohehtsof the American party no
principles to exponnd, no measures to pro
claim, or no suggestions to offer calculated to-
instruct, to enlarge or to elevate the public
mind ? The devices which have been resorted
to, so far from subscribing their intended pur-
poses, will be properly appreciated by the most
ordinary understandings and bring deserved
contempt nponstheir authors and defeat upon
their candidates.
