SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY TO
NORTHERN MEN.

New ORLEANS, August 25, 1868.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN;
/ trust that I do not intrude myself upon
your valuable time if l occupy few mo-
ments in reciting several incidents which
occurred yesterday morning while on my
route from Vicksburg to this city, on board
the steamer Governor Allen.
am northern man, and arrived in New
Orleans Louisiana, some ten days since; and
being desirous of seeing the scenery upon
the Mississippi, proposed to an acquaint-
ance and friend in the city to take trip as
far as Vicksburg.
Arrangements were made accordingly,
and we left the city last Tuesday on the
above named steamer. Every thing passed
off very pleasantly on our trip up, and we
were pleased with the courtesy extended by
the officers of the boat; and also with the
friendly feeing manifested upon the part of
several passengers whom we became &C
quainted with on our return to the city,
But am convinced that such HOSPITALITY
and friendship was extended under the i'm
preston that our political sentiments har-
monized with their own, for when politics
were brought forward, and we expressed
ourselves in favor Of the Republican plat.
form and the nominees of the Republican
party, they became suddenly most rampant
In their language, and continued their abuse
from time to time until their society be.
came obnoxious, and we were compelled.
from obvious reasons, 10 keep aloof from
them the remainder Of the journey.
They protested the right Of man to live in
the South unless he was Democrat; be-
came infuriated when we demonstrated with
them; made threats of violence, and used
such abusive language thai we feared for
some time they would carry some diabolical
plan into execution which would peril our
lives. For these reasons, do we repeat, and
being unpr0vided with means Of self-de-
Tense against these Williams, we were COM
pelled TO retire to our rooms, and there re-
main the rest Of our trip.
From the tone Of their language feel,
Mr.. Editor, that am perfectly sanctioned
Ia saying that had / chose 70 remain with
these men, and argued my position and sus-
tained myself to the last, they would have
Inflicted yiolance upon my person, and my
life may have been In danger.
As o stranger to the Crescent City I desire
70 know II this Is the .schivalry Of the
South.n Is this an exhibition Of tie fright
Of free speechw Is this the indncement
offered for men Of the North, East, aud West
70 visit or settle In The South fox honorable
enterprise, when without q knowledge Of
their character or theft purposes, they are
assaulted and abused, and their very life

THE GERMANS FOB GRANT AND ooIFAx

The Germans are almost all Republicans,
and they are entering into the spirit of the
campaign with downright old-fashioned
earnestness and power characteristic OF
the race. Those that were Democrats,
since the nominations of the two ConVen-
tions, cannot hesitate as to the line of con-
duct which duty and patriotism call upon
them to pursue, and they are making COM
mon cause with their Republican brethren
in battling for Grant and Colfax, for the
unity, prosperity and peace of the coun-
try. Hurrah for faderland

THE CASE OF CHAPLAIN KINGSTON.

A cotemporary having stated that Chap
lain Kingston was dismissed from Office by
Speaker Lowell, the reverend gentleman
publishes a card in the Times positively
denying the allegation. He says that
during ministry of thirty-seven years he
has never given expression to a sentence
contrary. to the teachings of his Divine
Master. We have never heard the reasons
for his dismissal, and his card refers only
to the published charge.

NEW ORLEANS MEDICAL ASSOCIATION
We call the attention Of our readers to
the resolutions adopted yesterday by the
New Orleans Medical Association, assert
ing what is generally known that the As
sociation is never governed by political
motives; but was instituted for the promo
tion of social and fraternal feeling in the
medical profession and among men of
learning and scientific attainments gen
orally. In the field of medicine in this
country, at the South as well as at the
North, no weeds Of political growth are
tolerated.

THE FRENCH POPULATION OF NEW YORK
FOR GRANT AND COLFAX.

The Franco-American citizens of New
York and vicinity, very numerous body,
have organized for Grant and Colfax, and
are entering the canvass with great
spirit and enthusiasm. A strong club COM
posed of Frenchmen has been formed, of
which NJ. R. De Thouars is President, and
who will take the etump for his adopted
country in the American fashion. He will
do yeOman service for Grant and Colfax.
