The washington correspondent Of Il


Baltimore American wrote last week:
Several prominent politicians from New
Orleans have arrived here within the last
few days. They say that political affairs in
Louisiana are in q very preearious conal-
ton. The Republican, are divided, and
have placed two tickets in the held. The
rebels have taken advantage Of this split IN
the Republican ranks, and are doing all In
their power to prevent the adoption Of the
constitution and the election Of the regular
Republican nominees. They have nomin-
ated no state ticket of their own, but will
turn their entire attention to the local Off
GERS and the constitution, their mAin object
being to defeat the latter. All the federal
offices of the state are in the hands Of John
son men, and large fund has been secured
to further their measures. Funds alRO have
been sent from New York and here to aid
them. Notwithstanding all these draw
backs, my informRnts say that the people
will adopt the constitution. Our friends
are making strong tight, and feel confident
Of winning.

The MONRoE ElHcgloNp- The InteRigenoer

says
The two election days in town were quiet
except at the polls, where there were par
ties interfering with the eolored voters, and
attempting to intimidate them; every fraud
that could have been thought of was prac-
rant.
Major Mckay, the chairman of the board
of registrars, discharged his duties with
much credit, aRd for doing this his life was
publicly threatened.
At the country precincts no disturbance
occurred, but the same spirit which took
the state ont Of the Union in 1861 was at
work, and the negroes were generally
threatened with being discharged if they
went to the polls. White men did not dare
to vote " for the Constitution,r for fear Of
being mobbed.

AUGUSTA, Ca, April 24.-Counting the
votes is progressing slowly, 1t will be sew
eral days before the result will be officially
made known. II is believed that the Rsdi-
calls have carried the district, electing
Prince to Congress and giving majorities for
the Constitution and Bullock. The Demo
Gratis claim five out of seven Congressman
and a majority Of the Legislature. The Re-
pubhcans are confident of Bullockis cleo
ton. Democrats ditto of Gordon, but all
this is conjecture. The official count will
show close vote.

by large procession of men and women.
All is serene here.

Down on the Germans

The radical journals tell us that one reas-
on why they are so determined the negro
shall vote, is, thousands of the Germans are
leaving the radical party, and they want to
punish them for it by making the negroes
their equal. The Boston Journal, leading
organ of the radical tax -grinders, taunts the
Germans with the following insulting Ian.
guage:
Although it has taken great deal of time
ana c"st us a vast amount of money, we have at
last got the stolid Dutch of the western states ed
ucated up 10 the higher law standard. When a
lew years ago, they spit upon US, the "despi sed
abolitionists, we determined the s.necrob las
they called the cOlored mani should he made their
egmais, or we would crush the Union. colered
suffrage is a fixed fact. The foo, of the neoro Is
the neck Of our ancient repilers, and those
who are not in our tolls must stand from under. !"
1t is not at all likely that the Germans will
feel bad at anything the radicals may say
about them. They are too much engaged
just now at hard work to enable them to
pay the enormous taxes the radicals have
forced upon them, to find time to punish the
radicals for the insulting taunts they hurl at
them The Germans will devote day next
fall to the work of putting the niger radicals
and the radical niggers where they belong
not with their necks under snybody's feet
but under the rule of men who do not be-
lieve the negroes to be the equal of the Ger
man, or any other white men. The radical
leaders never made greater mistake than
they do when they tell the Germans they
are no better than niggers. The Germans
have assisted to give freedom to the negroes
Ix-they will not assist the radicals TO put

LOYALTY IN EDGINGTON

The following is an extract from letter
from friend in Edgington, to the editor of
this paper:
"Can any man portray the moral character of
that man who says that democrats who subscribe
to and aid in raising the fund to build the Sol
diers' Monument, at Rock Island, do so only to get
their names advertised and not because they are
possessed of the least spark of loyalty patriot
ISM Such is the spirit of some of the radicals
in the township of Edgington,"
That our correspondent should feel some
what indignant squite natural, but he should
nevr forget that when our good Creator
formed the universe, He rolled up an i'm
mense package of all the principal virtues,
and redeeming traits by which he meant to
characterize man, and distinguish him from
the brute, and slowed it away for the proper
time for its distribution. The crowring in
gradients of this celestial bale, were benevo-
lence, honesty, untouchable piety, together
with all those patriotic qualities which led
men to rush to positions in the Sanitary
Commission during the last war, or to sacri-
flee their brotherin-laws, cousins, and first
wifeis relations on the altar of common
country. This bale was preserved inviolate
until the organization of the radical party,
when the guardian angels of earth became
convinced that millennium was dawning,
and at once bursted open the package, and
distributed the contents to none but the
'trooly loil," together with little government
contracts; and, in after years, with rebel
spoons and other swsg, exclusively the in
heritance ofthe "chosen." The consequence
Is, that if democrat went to war, it was by
accident, and if he helps to reara monument
IN honor of his fallen comrades, he is labor
ing under temporary alteration of mind,
and should By no means be credited with the
possession of any of those noble Qualities
belonging exclusively to the God and NOR
atty" party as represented by such men as
Rev. Serene Howe, the Boston monster ::
Rev. Mr.. Craig, the Illinois debauchee, and
and dwarf destroyer, Rev. Jason Kellogg,
the gay Lothario of Wisconsin and other
noted worshipers at the shrine of "God and
Loyalty"
