THE CAULDRON BUBBLING.

We have said repeat d'y that the Clio
rious Democracy were il a beautifu
state Of confusion, and from day to day
seem to be getting no better very fas.
Some Democratic papers deny it al,
say no such troubles exist. or if SO, they
only exist in the impure winds Of the
Opposition who are always endeavor
ing to throw irebrands into sue peaceful
bosom OF that happy family. Well! We
cant help il ii We occasionally tell the
truth, however unpleasant it may b. y
the great Democracy. Tie Point Cou.
pee Echo Of the 10th inst, gives a >pir'
tied account Of the progress of ,hat wing
Of the Democracy to Which i; belongs.
II is worthy of attention, as it may se,vo
TO convince some that there are slight
differences Of opinion existing i'll the
ranks If tue "uuwasIleJ :"
BECOMING ALARMED. = 1t is really
amusing, as we'll AS gratifying to see til
uneasiuess which is manifested by that
branch Of the Democratic party in this
parish, termed the Old Liners, alas Sit
deIlians, on account IF the growing
strength aud influence Of the States
party. 1t is becoming qaite eyi-
deut now that the glory Of that party
which boasts Of lis antiquity and pu-
rity, anI %rejoices under the appeIIat'on
OF National Democracy is rapidly on the
wane, and in lieu Of the oI'garchy and
one mau concern which has been tie
curse of the State of Louisiana, we see
gradually yet surely developing itself an
opposition patty which has %uriurIed to
The breeze the banner Of State Rights,
with Lie motto inscribed thereon, the
rights Of our people; the Development
Ct Tue 'Soutb."
It il now reduced to a certainty that
he States Rights parry will sweep the
State tue next Opportunity, aud COLI
:ious Of this fact an atts.npt is made TO
ridicule the opposition which is manifess
ed BY slignauzing it with every mali
Ter Of epi.hets, BY calling lis supporters
lisorganiz boIters, &c.
Tie truth Of thenalter is: we can
BOAST Of lIay,ng in cur ranks the best
men in the State=and by far the most
honest and influential portion Of the De-
nocracy, and with each day, our party.
Is its principles become known, grows
'trouger and stronger. w do not wou-
Ter then at the apparent confidence ex-
by our opponents, and the tenac-
~ which they display. i'll c!iuging to
what little lite is left then-procial,nlpg,
It the same time, their p:odigious power
md tie utter insigniticance, Of what they
TO call the New Liners.
We have beov1ue so Offensive .n thea.
Did Liners, that they tax freely about
vanishing Us from their ranks F.; exclu-
ling us from their deliberations, &c.
hey have discovered that when We are
is impossible for them to do as
hey please We interfere with their
arrangements ; we nominate men
to their taste 5; We regulate
nd correct their unfair dealings, and we
o many other things not strictly in ac-
ordance with the wishes of these self
lyIed leaders.
We a but laugh at the threats Of
bis miserable minority. 1t is ridiculous
! the extreme to hear them talk. They
'ish to manage their affairs az they
Sorry we cannot accommodate
gu. We must insist upon teaching you
ow to manage your affairs, for we are
'nv'nced Of your utter incapacity to do
} alone. And as for driving Us out,
lis is simply absurd. 1t is a well settled
W, that the greater contains the lesser,
I'D our last parish Convention settled
'e relative position Of the two parties,
I'D proved very concIusiyely which one
the other. This being The
Use, when the driving process colnmen-
IS we will see who the drivers are.
1t is quite evident that the defeated
arty in this parish begins to smart un~
'r the lash administered by The New
|"ers, and e~vinces Il disposition to act
remembered by our presence; in other
ords to form a separate party. This is
bat we desire, but being in the MAORI ,
we shall force them TO withdraw from +
!, assuring them that: they can never ,
mpel US to abandon the vantage ground
, have gained.
