INTERNAL REVENUE AppO1NrMEuTg.

There is considerable uneasiness among
the internal revenue officers and the mem
bers of the whisky ring growing out OF
the investigations and proceedings of SUI
pervisor Creecy, and the recent nomina-
tons sent to the Senate by Andy johnson.
The commotion is Cd the increase. Trips
between here and Washington are quite
frequent, and letter writing and telegraph
ing are kept up at q great rate. Su-
pervisor Creecy has gone to Washing
ton, and will probably triumph
IN his war against dishonest officials.
Our Senators are perplexed by this
state Of things, and hardly know what to
do with Andy's nominations. james Hart,
nominated as the successor Of Norcross, is
wealthy planter of 0uaehita parish, an
old citizen, and Union man. The friend
ship of John Ray will probably secure
his confirmation. ,Adolph Bouchard
nominated to succeed Tisaassiie. Is an
old citizen of this State, a gentleman
Of integrity, patriotism aud business Ca
pacity, and is sure Of condensation BY the
Senate. W. o. Lofland, successor to the
carpet-bagger Steedman, is himself car
pet-bagger, and has a slim chance
to get through the Senate but if

STATEsMANsHIP.-In his lecture on "The
statesmanship"in New York, recently, The.
odore Tilton said:
He saw an army of working girls going TO
earn their five, six and perhaps eight dol>
lars week, while at the same time, on the
other side Of the street, he saw an army of
men going to receive their ten, fifteen and
twenty dollars week. He hoped the day
would com when every woman would have
u wedding ring on her finger and ballot
in her hand. The difference between the
laborer of this country and the laborer of
Europe was the ballot. The ballot adds
one-third more to the wages OF the working.
man in the United States than ne would
otherwise receive, and what applies to man
applies to woman in that respect. The bal
lot is the pathway leading to the rights of
the oppressed, male and female Until the
laws of the country are changed, our
boosted Democracy will be a Juggernaut
AMI its victim woman.

Legislature, that watch is to be set upon
them during the coming session, with a
view to exposure, unless they reform their
evil ways and behave as honest men
should. After indulging in Characteristic
and bombastic TRADE against its natural
enemies, The Republicans, as sort of pre-
Jude, it dashes into the merits Of the case
against the Democracy as follows:
Unfortunately, and to the great mortitioa.
