Political Amalga

Under this heading. the Alexandria iLa)
American, OF the ST. inst, has the following
startling announcement.
We have hitherto refrained from noticing
the Infamous fact that a precinct in this par-
lsn Is controlled en- rely by a colony of free
negroes. We havr done so. because we were
unwilling TO expos 50 ioul a spot upon the
lar tame OF our paIsh. If other means could
be found Of reInoV ng it: but we are com
PEELED to announce to the people OF Louislan ia
that a precinct n this parisb-tanliiiarly
known as the Ten Mile precinctt-giyes a
large vote. nlne-te uJhs OF which are cast by
H]7tAH!t0eS ant fire. aegrocs. At the election on
tuesday last that precinct gave one vote for
the American ticket and seventv-eight Tor
the Democratic ticket. To this. however.
we have not the shadow Of an objection. We
have no desire that a negro Aan's vote should
he given to American candidates. and we
know that the man who cast the single bal
lot there for Fillmore was white. But W.
do protest against decent respectable men
countenancIng and winking at the attTocitv
of negro suffrage, and we also protest against
men tWhose claims to responsibility and de-
cency, if once doubtful, can now no LONGER be
admlttedt going among these negroes in the
"hall fellow, we'll met style. r~ailying them
around a ballot box of their own, placing the
ballots in their hands, and urging them on to
outrage the Constitution, break the law and
trampie upon the rights of legal voters.
When the facts become generally known
that free negro suffrage is permitted in a nor
ton Of this parasitic an extent that often de-
cides the results in the case of the last
election tof SherIf-anu we shall take good
care to have it published in other Louisiana
papers than the American-it will startle
many an honest voter, in the Democratic as
well as IN the American ranks, for no honest
man can, understandingly, give it his sane
ton, and no sensible man can fail to see it's
corruptIng and dangerous tendencies.
We are not prepared to 20 into the parttc-
ulars. OF the matter now. but if circnmst nres
permit. we snail make a thorough expose Of
It, and show up III connection Herewith the
conduct OF sandry persons in precisely the
coiors it deserves.
AT the pre- sent time, we notify those per-
sons that We are personally responsible for
what we sas or may say-that we stand rea-
dy to give them a white mans chance. al
though they do not deserve it-and that if
they reply e US in terms of biackguardism we
shall ans VIZ. them with similar Weapons.

GONE At LAsr.-The old Ferryboat has
busily employed in taking out her engine
and breaking her up. The Commodore views
the demolition Of the gallant BOAT on which
he has breasted the tempest and the gale. with
no placid countenance. What his emotions
are, it is impossible even to conjecture. for
ever and anon a smile steals over his face like
sunshine breaking through a cloud, and then,
ere you have time to notice the smile, a
irown gathers over that manly visasc, fear
full and portentious. He stands sometimes
on the river banks watching the tiny waves
as they chase each other to the beach. and
then quietly picks up a handful of pebbles and
throws them carelessly and slowly into the
muddy water of the river. Then, as if selz-
ed with a new impulse. turns and walks to-
wards the Foundry and looks yacantly at the
workmen as they ply their large hammer;
without seeming to be disturbed by their
noise, he pursues his meditations for a few
minutes, and, then, as if seized with an entire
new tidin oi thought, he walks calmly away
towards the remains Of his hearts cherished
idol,-his Byrona. Byrona, BEAUTIFUL By
roma +! Once the pride of the waters. what
art thou now? Old, dilapidated, crulnbling
TO pieces, and none to stand by thee in the
hour Of thy woes and bid the ruthless v~iolators
of thy once proud beauty, to stay their rnerci-
less hands. Why does the Commodore, spend
hours, daily, in watching the point above the
fair city Of Red Stick Does he expect sue
cor from that quarter, and like Lady Ann.
keeps a good lookout d? He will not abandon
thee, once proud, Byrona. No! Thou hast
often rocked the Commodore in the cradle
of the deep-has oufietted the storms and
winds successfully while he strobe thy gallant
decks, and in thy old age, he will not leave
thee to the mercy of a rude stream whose
waves would forever hide thee. No. no. he
would not do that, but he expects his new
boat down daily, and has no time to attend to
You, SO goodbye, old Byrona.
