TEE GREAT UPRISING.

The meeting Of loyal masses on Friday
evening in Congo square was simply sub.
lime. There is no other adjective which
can adequately express its proportions and
its significance. The name which was given
to the square in years past as jest will
hencetorth have glorious meaning, since
it will suggest that all honest men in our
state, whether their ancestors were born in
Africa or in Europe, whether their
previous condition has been humble or ele-
waited, are entitled to civil rights, to educa-
tional privileges, and to religious free
dom.
The square was literally crammed. The
speakers stand was large, and so great was
the thrOng around it that from its four
sides the eager auditors were Simultaneous.

great "sea of upturned faces" was the

spirit which recognizes the fatherhood of

asserts human right withoutregard to race,

state upon these solid and sacred corner

The sight of such an assembly, so
vast yet so orderly, SO enthusiastic yet
so peaceful, , as sufficient to rebuke the
ribaldry and confute the ISLANDERS
of our opponents. The loyal people of our
state have risen up, not in idle parade, not
in unmeaning demonstration, but in the
earnest spirit of men who love liberty,
who love the flag of the United States,
which typi6es our organized freedom, who
honor the soldiers who have fought under
that flag, and who are determined that

natural in one who participated in the Cut
ler-Wells Rebel farce of Sc St. Charles
street.
Near nine o'clock cheers were given fol
Warmoth by about thirty persons, nearly
half of those present, and the speaker was
kindly told that he was lying, all of which
so exasperated the gallant" and gentle
manlike " colonel that he poured out his
feelings in the following elegant languages
II am q fighting man, and l can whip
any damned Warmothite in the room"
II will pull off my coat and whip that man
or be whipped" Il will throw that fellow

we and our re ,ders are disguised with this
vulgar slang, cit only for the drunken crowd
of vulgar bar-room. Suffice it to state
that this Colonel Frisbie disguised the few
respectable persons present by his abuse
OF better men than himself, and proved
himself greater ass than the Hon. W. r.

breaking up in row, and at last the dan

left in disgust.

THE CITY nuRRRKoY.


In the approaching municipal election
it should be borne in mind that the Mon
roe citv administration of 1867, and the
rebel administration Of 1862 flooded
New Orleans with city currency which
has enabled brokers and spectators to
absorb, by its fluctuations in value and its
depreciation to from five to forty per cent
discount, much of the earnings of the toiling
masses of the Crescent city. The cam
paign should be conducted with especial
reference TO the responsibility of the OpPO-
nents of the Republican party in this cur
rency issue, as one of the essential points
in the canvass; for it is essential to truth
and justice that on the late rebel city gov
eminent and its supporters, and the advo-
Gates Of the restoration of the same party
to power, should rest the responsibility
which belongs to them for the over issue of
city currency and its consequent deprecia.
ton.
All the efforts Of the rebel press, in
Guiding that eminently conservative and
highly dignifed journal, the Commercial
Bulletin, the editor of which is praised by
the New Orleans Tribune, can not contro-
vert the facts that all but thirteen hundred
thousand dollars of this currency was is
sued by rebel city administrations, a CEN
siderable portion of it without authority Of
law, though it was afterward legalized,
and for the payment of current expenses,
aud that not a dollar of it was created by
the present city administration.
And yet the editor of the .Buletta with
the information before him that the present
city government destroyed SCI 1858 more of
the city currency than it issued, and that
its whole issue was for the purpose Of sub
stitUting small notes for the large notes
issued by preceding administrations, again
willfully, perversely. and obstinately per-
sists in his misrepresentation of facts. If
he knows anything about the issue of city
money, that writer is aware that the present
city government is not responsible for the
issue OF thirty-seven per cent of the
outstanding city currency, as he alleged
yesterday, nor for the issue of even one
per cent of that currency.
That "untruth when stuck to is better
than the truth seems to be the governing
principle actuating him ia his discus
sions of the city currency issue question.
We repeat that of the S4, 487, 4OS 25 city
currency in circulation on the twenty-sixtb
ultimo, the rebel administrations of 1861
'62, and 1866-'67 are responsible for the
issue of s3,236,S $50 %, the remainder, ST.
81 SIG having been issued by the military
administration from 1862 to 1866. These
issues were made by the rebel administra-
tons for current expenses of the CITY, while
the issue of city notes by the present admin
istratiOn was merely an exchange of small
notes for large, because the latter had de-
preeiated and were uRcurrent. The quib-
BILE that because the preseRt city govern
ment substituted $l,77O,73O in small notes
to take the place of similar amount of
tens and twenties, it created the whole of
this issue is unworthy sensible man who
preteDds to any degree of fairness or homer.

THE REPUBLICAN, CITY AND PARISH
TIOKET

Whatever may be said by chronic growl-
ers and soreheads, it is unquestiOnable that
this ticket, as a whole, is the best that has
Tor years been submitted to the voters of
this city. 1t is the first one which has rep
resented the masses, and been nominated
by the people Many Of the candidates are
our political and personal friends, and have
been and will always be true to their prin-
eiples and their duty under all cireum-
stances. Another favorable consideration
is that nearly all are men who have for
years been working ia and for the Repub-
lican party, and are therefore its better
and more reliable representatives. 1t is
proper and Just that those who bore the
heat and burden Of the day when to be a
radical was to be ostracised from society
and business, should now receive the honors
and emoluments of the party.

GOVERNOR PEAsE AND GENERAL HAM
pnnK

!
The military gentleman who for a time
undertook to administer the fifth military
district, under the civil laws when it suited
his purposes, sandwiching these laws with
arbitrary military authority, had under
consideration for more than two months a
communication from Governor Pease, Of
Texas, asking that military commission
be appointed to try murderers in that state
for assassinations they had committed, and
asserting that the civil courts could not or
would not pursue or punish the offenders.
General Hancock did not reply to this
communication, dated January II, until
March 8, and even then it was left as a
legacy to the public, through the columns
of the rebel press after he had left this mil
itary department. 1t is an unworthy spec
linen Of special pleading on the part OF
General Hancock, acknowledging that he
had the power, but maintaining that it was
not bis duty to protect loyal people from
assassination or punish their murderers.
LhC oooCubAoA pOAhb
verted, that the civil authorities are power
less TO enforce the civil law against that
part of the population lately in rebellion.
The Galveston Bulletin has obtained in
formation that the reply of General Han
cock, though dated headquarters fifth mill
tary district, is not official, and does not
appear on the letter book of headquarters
The letter must have been written either
for buncombe, or as it was not given to the
public until some days after General Han
cock had left New Orleans, and then only
through the columns of the rebel press, it
may have been manufactured by some
sharp lawyer who wanted to bolster up the
"lost cause by using the name of that
distinguished failure who deceived himself
with the idea that he could administer civil
laws of which he was utterly ignorant,
though he was sent here expressly to con-
duct military administration as provided
for by the laws of congress.
General Hancocks administration of the
fifth military district was blunder from
beginning to end. He Numbered in the
order announcing his purpose to run
military government under the civil laws
and thereby encouraged bad men who, were
before restrained by the rigor of military
law, to assault and murder loyal men in
localities where there was no possibility Of
punishment for these offenses by the civil
tribunals. He Numbered in his removals
and appointments in this city. He blum
dered in the order requiring all state taxes
to be paid in greenbaeks, thereby causing
a depreciation of state notes and state
warrants, and approaching in a CORE
spending degree the profits Of confidential
brokers, But the greatest of all his blum
ders was his letter to Governor Pease,
which proves most conelusively his sympa-
thy with disloyalty, and his Indifference as
to the protection of loyal men in this dis
trict in their persons and property.

A HAPPY PHRASE.

The Democrats of the sixth ward have a
felicitOus style of expression. In their
meeting on Thursday evening they adopted
preamble and resolutions in which the
policy Of the party is stated to be two
fold" or, in strictness of language, policy
of duplicity. The two folds of this duplex
policy are, in the language of the meeting,
these:
lst An incorporating opposition to the
Dryades street constitution, first and fore
most; and I'd. In case of failure to defeat
the constitution, to strain itself in order to
take possession of the proposed state gov
eminent by the election Of conservatives
and Democrats.
II appears from this that the party is
geing " to strain ITSELF" We have not the
least doubt of this, though from the distrac-
ton which now reigns in their wigwsm the
effort will not be likely to prove what
would be called in music "a harmonious
strain" A party Of this kind is always
straining itself. It's doctrines are too obi
Gus to be embraced without spasm, and
the dead beats and political hacks /"
who, as we are informed by the Camp
street journals, are seeking its sufIrages, are
too ugly to he swallowed without cen.
vulsion.
We advise all candid men to join the Re
publican party. It is party which does
