70 h,a Ercelzency the I President and the Sena,
tors and Representatives ofhe United States
Tmaude rsigned citizens of the State Of
Louisiana, respectfully represent that the, po-
litical elopments OF the past few months
have demonstrated the tact that the Recon
struetioD acts Of Congress will, if persisted in,
produce ) q conflict Of races which will re-.
suit I'M The desolation of the country, and the
serious if not irreparable injury Of both races
10 the Southern States. "a
i hat the negroes of this State are organized
into secret bandsott termed s'loyal leagues, "
sworn and combined against their former own.
ers and citizens of the State, 10 order to OBJ
tain controlof the government.
That this credulOus race has been deluded
by designing men into the belief that the pro.
perty of theswhite citizens of the State will be
divided amongst them
That under these demoralizing influences,
they are daily refusing to fulfil their contracts,
or labor for the support Of themselves and
their families.
That, in consequence OF this Decentralization,
planting in this State has resulted IN the RUIN.
Gus failure CT o large majority or our planters,
and, Of course, in the necessity OF its abandon
ment ~
That, before the close Of the present year,
the negroes, with but few exceptions will have
consumed or wasted all their wages or share OF
the crop, and be destitute of the means of sub.
sistence. 5>tsi3st
That the white race will be compelled to
limit their planting to the labor OF their own
families. while the negroes will not have the
means, if they had the capacity, to plant on
their own account.
Under these circumstances, famine, with all
it's attendant horrors, must soon come upon
this improyident race.
In. view Of these impending calamities, the
undersigned would earnestly appeal to the
President and Congress; to give prompt at:
tention to this vitality important matter, and
provide Immediately such remedy as in their
wisdom can be devised, to avert the ruin which
unless arrested, must speedily come upon US.
