I" Allen ON the Brain"

We have heard OF various diseases of late
years, unknown in the vocabulary of medi
ciuse before, such as s niger on the brain,
cotton, petroleum, crinoline, whisky and q
thousand other things on the brain;p but
they have all been threwn in the shade by
q very startling and fearful complaint which
has "a Hen like an epidemic upon the good
people of New Orleans. Several of the jour
mails of this city and tie great majority Of
the politicians and placemen, are terribly
agitated at the mention of the name of Fen
~ Nv. Allen in connection with the Office Of
Governor of this. State. So excessive j.
fheir anxiety, in this respect, that we are al
snost empowered to say they are irrecovera-
bly afflicted with the disease above referred
to, which we will christen Allen ON the BRAIN
We have little doubt, too. that before the
end Of the'present month most of them will
be carried of by this malady. and, after
learning that it takes great many Wellsto
make o river, will give their hearty support
to the man pre-eminently fitted for the inn
portant post of Governor OF this State, and
for whom the rural population will cast an
unanimous vote. Gov. Allen has other
claims besides having been badly wounded
in tile late war" When seifshness and cor
suption stalked impudently and rampant
orer the iand--when men were perverted
from their duty by jealousies and factions,
Goy. Allen was absorbed in the good work
of alternating the miseries Of bis people. He
administered the, finances of Louisiana in
such mastery way that the credit of the
Strte was higher than that Of any other in
che late Confederacy. He established chan
nes through which to furnish clothing ,Inedi-
cines aud food to the families of the citizens,
and heresisted and defeated any encroaeh-
meuts by the military on the rights Of civil
jams. At the time OF the surrender he had
honestly accumulated sufficient cotton and
sugar to pay off the war debt Of Louisiana
JIG was looked up to by the entire Trans
Mississippi Department as THE man; and
from, the Gulf to the Northern limits OF
Louisiana, his name was respected aud his
connsels cherished by honest men.
Such are the men after Andrew Jobnsons
own pattern; sacb are the men whom be
takes to his heart Of hearts--for he feels in-
stinctiyely that when they undertake. thing
they carry it out with all The energies Of
their souls. There was nothing, 10 the
whole course of the war, in the conduct of
Gov. Allen but must excite veperation and
respect. Be it that he was mistaken in his
views, butso were most Of us, and now that
he sees the errors that have been committed,
lie will put all the force Of bis manly and he
roic nature into bis endeayors to redeem the
past. sio4 SD a
The nomination Of Gov. Allen is not a
81 firebrand." II there was another candidate
besides Gov Wells,it might be so called /;
but as Gov. Wells was about to walk over
the track,n the candidate of fUo parties,
what harm can il be to any party to start a
competitor for the stakesf VA s.,

Our next Chief Magistrate.

Notwithstanding all the contradic,
tory rumors with regard to the posi-
ton in this canvass Of Henry w
Allen, his friends persist in maintain
ing that he will be run for Governor,
and, further, that he will be trium-
phantly elected. The people Of Lon
iSiana, in the suggestion Of Aliens
name, are somewhat like Doctor
johnson, when he had read Gray's
Elegy, how wonderful such thoughts
never occurred to US before !" They
see how eminently proper his nominal
ton is, and though little, but not
too late, they intend to carry him
through. Gov. Allen. as they think,
will be installed as Chief Magistrate
Of this State without any particular
savors toshow, and without friends
to reward. Untrammellsd by any
pledge, he will be at liberty, under
favor of the National Administration,
to follow out those practical, liberal
and enlightened principles which
have always characterized his course
i as public man, and for pursuing
which he has made himself idolized in
every section and corner Of Louisiana.
All success to the peoples friend and

reconstruction. Shall we recapitu

grievously wounded in several SAN
