The DEMOCRATIC VIEW OF THE SITUA-
TIoS.-The New York World, the lead
ing Democratic paper in the country,
admits the full force of the popular YER
dict in the late elections, and proceeds
to give advice accordingly to the Presi-
dent, the South and the Democratic
party, as follows
at would be futile for him to con-
tend longer with the Radicals in respect
TO the South, and he will best consult
the dignity of his office by letting his
action cease with his responsibility.
Against Congress there was no appeal
but TO the people, and the passions of
the war have not yet sufficiently subsid-
ed to permit them to judge with candor.
The ratification of the amendment is not
a question for him, but for the States.
He may hereafter stand aloof from that
subject without any loss of dignity or of
consistency. Against the u%nconStitu-
tional exclusion of the Southern States
from Congress it was his duty to remon-
Strate; but having appealed to the peo-
pie in vain, why should he sharpen ac-
rimouy by further opposition The
elections, by virtually depriving him Of
his veto have relieved him from all re-
Sponsibility for the action Of Congress.
The South will preserve order, obey
the laws, and leave the Radicals to pass
such measures rs they please. The
spectacle ola quiet, loyal people ruled
by II Government in which they have no
voice, will appeal to the better senti-
ments of the North, and cause a reac-
ton against the Radicals. When it is
seen that there is no reason in the on
duct the Southern people why they
should be excluded, the responsibility
of keeping the Union dissolved will
com home to the Radicals; and before
the Presidential election there will be a
great popular reaction which will sweep
them out of power. Only a very small
change is necessary to produce this re-
suit. \ change of one vote in Il hum
dred would accomplish il in New York;
a change of one vote in fifty would ac-
compliSh il in Pennsylvania. The cleo
toral votes of these two States, added
10 those of all the Southern States, to-
gether with New Jersey and Connecti-
cut. would make a majority. \ change
of about seventeen thousand votes in
the four States of New York, Pennsyl-
vauia. Connecticut and New Jersey,
would enable the Democratic party 20
elect the next President; for it must be
borne in mind that every voter trans
ferrcd from one side to the other makes
4 difference of two in the result. Why
should Democrats despair of changing
seveu.. thousand votes in the next
two years p

The elections for Parochial officers
throughout the State, given the citizens
over the veto Of his Excellency Governor
j. Madison Wells are soon to come off,
From the many aspirants surely good men
can be elected to fill all offices cortended
for with honor to the Parish Of Rapides.
Elections for one of the most important
Offices to the citizens Of Rapides, is that Of
the Police Jury. A recent occurrence. sin
gular in more respects than the simple
fact, is the appointment Of the State cadet
from this Parish. The Legislature of the
State Of Louisiana passed an act as fol-
lows: THAT upon the opening Of the Sem
mary fr the reception Of students, the
Board Of Supervisors shall receive num-
her INDECENT yohths, free from any charge
for tuition. board or rents etc" The GER
tiicate for the present cadet was obtained
from the Police Jury who has the selcc-
ton; by what means and how it is useless
to enquire. That the object Of the benef-
cient act giving an education free of charge
to an INDECENT boy Of this Parish is viola
ted and that wealth and power have taken
precedence over both law and justice is q
simple fact. Surely in the ruined Parish Of
Rapides, there is such an INDECENT youth
as the law contemplated.
Voters it is your duty to see to this mat
ter and correct it, as your real indigents
ought not to be neglected by any
CITIZEN.
