Boosting.


The greatest mockery Of the season, is the
boast of election victories in West Virginia and
Missouri. Why not put the exultation on its
true grounds-the successful exclusion of the
people Of those States from the polls? The
veriest hack can win the race, if all others are
ruled of the track.-RicI Examiner.

Eniisting Negroes in Louisiana.
A planter in Rapides Parish La, has writ
ten to the n. o. Times, complaining Ola squad
of negro soldiers who went into his field and
stopped the negroes from work, by offering
them a bounty Of $500 to enlist in the United
States Army, for service in Texas The negro
soldiers stated that they were recruiting for
the army" and that more negro soldiers were
needed TO liberato the negroes in Texas and
that if they contracted to work on plantations
next year, they would be enslavcd again
That the d-d rebels were working to get
them all back to slavery. The negroes were
almost forced of from their homes, families
and engagements. Many left wives, children
and crops.
The Times vouches for the reliability Of It's
informant, who, it says, is one Of the most
prominent planters thereabouts.
