any planter, manager, oyerseer,

the expiration ofthe term ofservice
of any laborer in their employ, or
under their control, discharge
from their employ amy laborer or
laborers on account of their politi-
cal opinions, or who shall attempt
to control the sufrages or votes Of
lsuch laborers by any contract or
/ agreement whatever, entered into
at any time with such laborers,
shall pay a fine of not less than
| S100inor more than $500, to be
recovered before any court of com
Ipetent jurisdiction, and it will be
| the duty of the District Attorney,
lpro tenp0re; of the parishin which
such offender resides, to institute
such suit in the name of the parish
: of the offenders residence, and
that he shall be entitled to 25 per
cent. Of the amount Of all fines he
may so recover as his fees in the
case, and the balance shall be
paid to the treasurer Of the com
mon, school fund of such parish,
and upon conviction for any such
offender shall be imprisoned not
exceeding one year. atai

Doom OF THE TRAITOR !-Un.
der this head the New Orleans
Picayune lashes John Ray most
numerically for voting for the
negro social equality bill, which
the Governor vetoed. The Plea
yune does not mind his stealing a
railroad or two, but when it comes
to notice his action in the negro
equality matter, it fairly boils over
with indignation. Here is what
it says of the gent x 3sta sdQ
On Friday this person attained
to the climax of outrage and in
suit, and upon the feelings and
rights of the white population Of
this State. He voted for that lln-
mitigated insult to decency, ciyiliT

ment of the Caucasian raee-the

does not come to us from Yer

less hardihood to vote that here

More Murders.

We are tired condemning the
slaughter of helpless passengers
who have committed their lives to
the keeping of reckless and heart
less scoundrels who seem to have
got7control of most of onr steam
! boats and a portion Of our railways
in America. The charred bodies
and mangled remains of the victims
of one general slaughter, are just re-
moved from our sight and deposited
in the ground, when the ghastly
spectacle of a fresh field of the dead
appals our sight. It is just possible
that the killing and burning of eigh-
ty or hundred men, women and
children on the Ohio river, near
Warsaw, Indiana, occurring, as it
does, ON the eve of the meeting of
Congress-, may cause that Body to
take some steps to put-.an end to
this wholesale murder.
In the last "accident," as in all
others, there is of course prepared
for the public some plausible excuse
for taking the lives of the most of
those who were on board the steam
ers that came in collision. "The
proper signals were given, but the
signals were not heard.' To those,
if there are any such, who believe
that these disasters are unavoidable,
we should like to put a question.
How does it happen that on the
Thames, which swarms with steam
ers, and on the Rhine and the Rhone
and the Danube, these so-called ac-
cidents seldom or never occur ?
How is it that on the Mediterranea can
and on the English Channel, which
are dotted all over with steamships
and steamboats,, these heartsickening
disasters do not occur once year
while on our rivers and lakes they
are happening almost every week ?
We thing the explanation is that
the Governments of. those older
countries demand of men who pro-
pose to convey passengers, some
security that they will not kill them.
If innocent persons, in passing from
place to place are murdered, then
their murderers are held response
ble, and cease forever to be COM
mon carriers.
There must be more direct and
more rigid supervision and control
over our steamboat and railway
lines, by the General Government
in this country. AS matters now
stand, no one who leaves home
even for day, has any assurance
that he will ever return.-O. s.
