WAREHOUSE RECEIPTS.

The Legislature has passed an important
law in regard to warehouse receipts, which
is similar in tenor to the enactments which
have been made in Missouri, Illinois and
New York within the last ten years.
Il provides severe penalty for putting
out fictitious receipts, and makes the re-
ceipt carry the title to the goods it calls
for. The plan has worked with marked
advantage in St. Louis, Chicago and New
YORK, and has caused an ample supply of
capital to flow to those marts, to be loaned
on such receipts as collateral. The law
has been adopted here at the solicitation of
our bankers and merchants, who feel that
if they are protected in this respect the
commerce Of our city will be materially
increased.
The same law denounees severe PEN
atty against the fortiOus conversion by a
factor Of the produce Of his principal. 1t
IS one of many wise statutes which have
been enacted by our mueh-abusea Legis.

The telegraph kindly furnishes us with a
letter of General Mcclellan upon the issues
Of the present campaign. He is, OF course,
opposed TO the Republican party, but yet
has the grace to say the following, which
we commend to the study of the New Or
leans Times, a paper that seems to think it
necessary to disgust the public each day
by abuse OF General Grant:
Separated, as / thus am, from the dis
tinguished soldier who has been chosen as
the leader of our opponents, know that
you will agree with me in the highest re-
spect for the services he has rendered our
country.
The remainder of the letter is an assur-
ance that its writer still sympathiz IS with
the Democratic cause. He did the same
in 1864, and we all know what became OF
the Democratic causen in that memorable
year. ky.

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:
"SoLDIERs OF THE ARMIES OF THE UNITED
STATEs-By 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,

enforcement of the laws and the proclama.

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-

EaDcy Of results, dim the luster of the
worlds past military achievements, and

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

their memories, and will ever cherish and

CONNECTICUT.

In the absence of full details the crow
ing of the Democrats over the charter cleo
ton in Connecticut is premature. The dis
patches state that the city Of Hartford gives
$50 Democratic majority. Last spring she
gave 1900. The Democratic majority in
New Haven is stated to be 900. Last
spring it was Upward Of 5000. At this rate
the Republicans have gained immensely.
Connecticut has always been close
State. In the tremendous sweep for Lin
coin in 1864, she only gave 200 majority
for the Republican ticket; and thus far the
signs are that she will give much more
than that

A POINT OF Law.

Mr.. Alderman John 0'Brien, one OF
our oldest and most respectable mer-
chants, arose in Misplace in the Board Of
Aldermen last night, and demanded to
know why the Controller had prejudged
that the printing law was just and consti-
tutional.
We opine the worthy Controller does not
feel himself called upon to decide whether
law passed by authority of the sovereign
people of Louisiana is just or unjust, nd
no officer under the rank of Judge OF q
District or Supreme Court can stop the
operation of law on suspicion of its be-
ing unconstitutional.

MUTUAL ADMIRATION,

The Georgia Legislature having, in
violation of all law and deceney, expelled
the colored Republican members and re-
solved themselves into good old-fashioned
Democratic caucus. have become most
happy family. and have procured the tele-
graph to say that, in adjourning, she
members separate with mutual fraternal
feelings toward each other Which is
lovely 10 be sure. In fact, they feel "as
thick as thieves" and have as fiue mutual
admiration as any that ever blazed in the
bosoms of a crowd Of professional burglars
after a successful raid.

THE DBLMAR STATEMENT.

The attempt OF the Democratic manager
to make political capital out Of the lettel
Of Alexander Delmar upon the finances
has utterly failed, The errors of Mr.
Delnars statistics are so glazing, Lis mis-
statements so frequent, that even Mr.. Nc.
Cnlloch, the Secretary of the Treasury
who is in full sympathy with the Demo.
cratic party, has been forced to character.
ize it as untrustwortby.
Catching, as it were, at a straw, the sink
ing Democracy announces as evidence o.
Republican misrule, upon authority of the
Hon. Alexander Delmar, that there is de
ioiency in the treasury of one hundred and
fifty millions
Now, in the statement of Mr.. Delnal
there is no attempt to show deficiency
By Understanding probable receipts and
over estimating expenditures he attempt,
TO prove that at the end of the financial
year there raI be deficiency of one hund.
red and fifty millions. The publication Of
this paper fully justiies the dismissal Of
Mr.. Delmar from the Bureau of Statistics
Congress largely reduced the appropria-
lions for the year The bounties have beer
mostly paid; the army and navy bills have
been reduced; the outlay for reconstruc.
lion has nearly ceased. Yet Delmar estimates
that the expenses for this year will exceed
by one hundred millions those for the year
past. There is a mistake Of forty-two mil.
lions in the estimated internal revenue re-
ceipts But if this last alleged deficiency
argues any thing, it is but to show that the
collectors appointed by johnson will fail
to return the assessments.
When The present campaign began The
Democratic stock in hand consisted OF
Negro Supremacy" Tyranny of Recon
sructioD, and the like. Since that tine
their own deeds in the South have fully
justified to the country the measures of
Congress.
Democracy has taken a new tack. In
less it succeeds to the ADMINISTRATION the
government will be bankrupt in just any
number of days-vide Mr.. Delmar.
