the schoolmaster abroad he had left his cudgel
behind him. In short We don't believe it practicable
to apply benefcenty aud fairly any Intelligence"
test TO tho voters and voting of this City.
But il is utterly mistaken TO deduce general conclu-

We have here vast population who live by practlc-
ing on the fates and panderng to the vices OF their
fellow men. All who make money by others debauch'
cry or lewdness are natural Democratsthat Is, they
hate any party which to have moral basis, and
feel instinctvely that its ascendancy threatens the
impunity for immoral practices they delight in. 1t is
vice, not ignorance that rolls up the hideOus Demo-
cratic majorties in this City. 81.

paupers and most of the criminal class does not
remain long enough in one place to vote under such
rule. Under such tax all who gain an honest living
would vote, and not many others.

Our Washington correspondence states that in a

authorities in Louisiana the arrest Of the persons
known to have committed murders in the New Orleans
massacre, whom the civil courts have with bold de-
iance of justice, refused to prosecute This action
will test the worth of Gen. Grants Order No. A. and,
if it is nufed, will definitely hold the President re-
