So ndaT complaints having been made to this
Office of injustice done to taxpayers by State Asses
in different parishes. hereby notify all State
Tar Assessors that the law requires them to notify

BLAIR ON GRANT,

AS some of the Seymour-Blairers may
| wish to know the peculiar views entertain
ed by their military leader Of General
Grant, we have concluded, though with
some reluctance, to crafty them. As the
Democratic party is the last refuge of chris
tianity, the brethren can not object to the
language or sentiments Of their chief apos
tie. The amiable, peaceful, and piou1
Blair, according to the Leavenw orth, Kan
sas, Times, thus expatiated on rece Mt oc.
casiOn, upon Grant:
The Hon. Frank Blair, after his speech in
this city, in the presence of number OF
gentlemen, and in reply to remark that
Grant was fool" said:
"Sir, you are mistaken. Grant is no fool.
know him well. ] knew him before he
went into the army, aud when he used to
haul wood into the city of st. Louis. / met
him often in the service. know the man.
He is, by -, the greatest man of the age
Sherman, Sheridan, and Thomas are good
men, but Grant is worth more than all of
them.
"Oliver Cromwell and Napoleon Bona.
parte were both great men, but, sir, tell
you that Grant is a greater man than Crom-
well and Bonaparte put together. He is not
a talker, but he is one of the d-est think
ers in the world.
HE is ambitious, but ne don't show it;
and tell you that, if he is elected Presi.
dent, he will set up monarchy, and es.
tablish himself Emperor.
~ tell you that the people are mistaken
when they suppose Grant to be a fool.
They have good reason to fear his greatness
"Yes, but don't you think that he will be
controlled by such men as Sumner, Wilson
and Washburnem
Controlled! CONTROLLED Why, by -,
he would sweep them away like straw"
'But, General, don't you think that cir
eumstances have done great deal for
Grant?n
"Why, h-ll, the fellow has made the cir.
cumstances. | tell you that it is no luck.
1.-The man that can spring right up from
poverty and obscurity, and do what he has
done, is no mere creature of circumstances.
Circumstances don't run so much in one
way
AZ am a Democrat; but if General Grant
is such great man as you say he is, am
Grant man from this out" s
"Well, if you want despotism, vote for
him; but If you want Republican form Of
government, you will have to vote against
bin. I know that he is great man, and
by -, in saying SO, simply tell the truth. /"
Would t.be modest in us, after this, or
respectful to so distinguished and sanity a
character as the Democratic candidate for
the Yice-Presidency is, to dispute his word,
and say that General Grant is not great
man?

GRANTS FAREWELL Address
TO HIS ARMY.

The general order of General Grant, ad-
dressed to the soldiers of the United States
when the war was over, will now be read
with interest. Here it is:
ttSoLDIERs OF THE ARAIEs OF THE UNITED
SrArEs-Ry your patriotic devotion 20 your
country in the hour of danger and alarm,
your magnificent fighting, bravery and en-
durance, you have maintained the suprema-
cy of the Union and the Constitution,
overthrown all armed opposition to the
enforcement of the laws and the proclama-
ton forever abolishing slavery-the cause
and pretext of the rebellion-and opened
the way to the rightful authorities to restore
order and inaugurate peace on permanent
and enduring basis on every foot of Ameri-
can soil. Your marches, sieges and. battles,
in distance, duration, resolution and bril-
hancy of results, dim the luster of the
worlds past military achievements, and
will be the patriots precedent in defense of
liberty and right In all time to come. In
obedience to your country's call, you left
your homes and families, and volunteered
in her defense. Victory has crowned your
valor, and secured the purpose of your
patriotic hearts; and with the gratitude of
your countrymen, and the highest honors a
great and free nation can accord, you will
soon be permitted to return to your homes
and families, conscious of having discharg-
ed the highest duty Of American citizens.
To achieve these glorious trinmphs, and
secure to yourself, fellow countrymen, and
posterity, the blessings of free institutions,
tens of thousands of your gallant comrades
have fallen, and sealed the priceless legacy
with their blood. The graves of these q
grateful nation bedeWs with tears, honors
their memories, and will ever cherish and
support their stricken families"

OBEDIENOE no LAW,

A Seymour paper said few days ago
that no man is bound to obey "an uncon-
stitutiOnaI law.u Isn't he, indeed? But
who is to Judge Of its unconstitutionality ?
Is he to decide upon it for himself, and obey
it or not as he may think proper? The
phrase is rather taking, but its enunciation
without qualification shows the real ami
mus of the so-called Democratic party.
The truth is, notification and secession
have so perneated that party that it has
become rotten to the very core, Its whole
theory of self-goyernment has become viii
ated. Free government upon its theory is
impossible. The announcement that 10
man is bound to obey an unconstitutional
law is good illustration Of the Democratic
theory, and the late attempt at secession
furnished a terrible and appalling comment
airy upon its practice. EH
The election Of such . candidate to the
Presidency by such party is hgiolation o.
the Constitution, so runs The Democratic the
ory and we shall not be bound by the result
and win not submit to 1t. And forthwith
the party secedes, or tries to, and involves
tine country in all the horrors Of a long,
bloody struggle for existence.
"5uch laws are unconstitutional, p said
the nullifers OF the South in 1928
1--WE shall not be bound TO obey unconstitu-
tional laws, and we will resist them
And they made preparations to re-
sIst them. fortunately for the country,
there was no sham Democrat, no James
Buchanan, in the Presidential chair.
