totally andsdtterly incomprehensible? Can it
be accounted for upon any hypothesis what
ever, consistent with the stale and farfetched
allegation Of the Democratic press at the
South? &
There may be errors, and important ones, in
the creed Of the Known othing or American
party, but we again say that a party, Of sounder
nationality does not exist. Some of the Demo
cratic organs and leaders in Kentucky denounce
it as an abolition party, but this is always the
one great weapon Of their warfare against any
and every man or party that they think proper
to oppose. They denounced General Harrison sl
as All abolitionist in 1910, they denounced Mr.;
Clay as an abolitionist in 1914, they denounced
General Taylor as an abolitionist inils48. they
denounced General Scott as an abolitionist III
1852, they denounced the whole Wing party,
az amass of abolitionists in each and all OF
those years, and have been thus denouncing it
until within the last few weeks, and they would
denounce Christianity itself as abolitionisnn, il
they believed that they could thereby fix their
clutches upon the, political spoi!s Of the ration.

WA~SA1NGToNMUNIclpAL ELECTION,

On Monday last, 81 election was held at
Washington for FIVE members to serve as a
Board Of Town Council for the next year.
The whole American ticket succeeded, there
being no opposition save a stubborn, sullen
and hidden one. Probably not above six or
eight Of the Ants voted at all the remainder,
seeing early in the day that opposition was
useless, retired in disgust from the polls.
Sam had things his own way, and elected a
sood Board, consisting of Messrs. Thomas G.
Anderson, James Mcdaniel, jesse Campbell,
Gerand Carriere and Capt. O. Hinckley.
We had hoped to see some opposition. We
knew it was in the minds and hearts Of the
Foreign party; but they "smelled a rat" and
came to the wise conclusion that it was better
to let the election go by default than suffer an
overwhelming defeat.
Why did not some Of the party here 60
down and help their Washington friends, as it
was boosted they intended to do?

THE ECHO OF LAFAYETTE.

Internationally, we have stirred up the bile
in our neighbours system, and he has been
throwing of copiously. He devotes q Whole
column to our illusions q fortnight Stree to
~ publication Of, and comments upon, Mr..
Flournoy's Letter.
We acknowledge that Q Portion Of the SEN
simsnts conveyed in Mr. Flournoy's Letter
furnished . pretty good text upon which to
preach an Anti-Agerican sermon but the
Lstter, taken as q whole, does not, we again
~, echo the sentiments Of the American party
- body. Atheists and Deists have gone to
~ Bible and taken texts in proof of their
doctrines ; but they have been no better sus-
tanned than has our neighbor in his effort to
prove that American principles are antago-
nistic to religious liberty or to Southern insti-
tutions. fsu Wall mF
TIE Convention that nominated Mr.. Flour
Aoy put forth their platform Of principles, in
which, we say again, they eschewed all inter-
ference with religion. Why did not the Echo
publish those principlesf Does he attach more
Importance to the sentiments of Mr.. Flournoy,
. single individual and an enthusiastic Protest
ant, whose zeal has probably prejudiced him
against Catholics And why does he use the
phrases "confding South" and "beware of
the North" in connection with the Flournoy
letter. Is not Mn lournoy q native Of D
slave State, the candidate Of slave-owners, and
himself q Shareholder? Avowedly he is 10.
Possibly the Echo entertains the idea that
AL is fair in politics." Well, therein we
differ from him. We would not Intentionally
deceive any one. We do not arrogate to
ourselves great Importance as editors, nor to
our paper overwhelming influence. We think,
however, we are equal to some others in these
parts in ability that our paper is as large in
size and as influential as some Others, and that
We have as good q right to understand the
principles Of our party as Mr.. Flournoy, if he
- a candidate for Governor in Virginia, Or
those who take isolated cases and make garbled
extracts, to save q party which can not, like
Rome, be saved by a flock Of geese, or by any
other fair means.

MUSHROOM AR1srocnAcy.-The Newburv-
port Herald, abiding to the growing evil ofex-
travagance in the United States, says:
There is not a country in the world where the
people are becoming so extravagant in their
mode of dress and living, as in the United
states. It is one of the worst signs of the
times. The habits of this mushroom aristo-
cracy are really disgusting. How it looks to
see boys sporting diamonds by the thousand
dollars worth at a time, fathers were accus-
toned to wheelbarrows, and whose children are
pretty certain to be in the workhouse, And
girls, silly, simpering things, weighed down
with jewels and bracelets, whose mothers broke
their backs at the washing tub, securing floors,
and picking oakum.-The real substantial ar
,st9cracy never indulge in such fopperies and

THE 0PELoUSAs RAILROAD,

From an interview with Judge Moore, who
has been spending some days at Washington,
We have gathered several interesting items rela-
tive to our Railroad. The Judge is one of the
Directors Of. the Road, and has recently been
over the part completed, as well as that portion
under contract. He speaks e%ncouragingly of
the prospects Of an early completion to Ber-
wick's Bay, and a speedy beginning at both
Washington and Newtown. There are now
near seven hundred hands at work between the
IAfourche and Bayou Black, most of the work
being done under the direct superintendent of
the Company. When about five miles Of
grading, mostly through swamp lands, shall be
completed, the road will be ready for the laying
Of the rails from the Lafourche to Bayou
Black. q distance of about twenty miles.
Reaching Bayou Black, communication will
be had by steam with Berwick's Bay, u dis
tAnce then Of some six miles "a portion of the
work on which has been done) remains to be
completed, will carry the road to Bayou Buuf
near the Bay, to which the largest steamers
1n go.
Judge Moore thinks the road will be com
p!eted to Bayou Black by November, and TO
Bayou Bnuf by January and he entertains
the belief that the work will be begun very
speedily on this end of the road, especially if a
negotiation at all favorable for q loan of money
can DO effected by q sale or otherwise OF he
City bonds.
This information should be gratifying to cur
citizens, whose losses annually, for want Of a
direct, cheap and speedy Communication with
NewOrleans, amount to q sum almost or quite
equal to the cost Of the Railroad through cur
Parish.

On the dark blue waves Of the Ocean Of Time
Proudly was launched a young Ship Of State F;
Each wave and each breeze made the scene more
sublime, N .-2
LAYING and tanning her on to her fate.
Onward and upward her standard she bore;
Unfurling her stripes and her stars DER the deck,
She pointed her young prov to some golden shore
Away from the seylla where such vessels wreck.
She was destined, alas! shoal Charybdis to CRATE,
Peopled with monsters Of each nation and tongue
All claiming a berth on this young Ship OF State;
Till a broad pinioned Eagle descended and hung
Round the once happy craft like an angelof light;
Inspiring his army these monsters to STAY,
Or perish as with the invaders they fight .nf
To keep them from tearing her colors away!
