THE PINuHRAnK SPECIE

Mr.. Pinchback was threatened with
hanging, BY mob on St. Charles street,
because he was a Republican.
The next day be rose in the Senate, and
in defending himself from the attacks Of a
partisan press, took occasion to inform the
public, substantially, that if Republicans
were to be wantonly attacked because they
were Republicans, and their lives threat
ened with hanging, they would be obliged
to defend themselves. ofi IS
The Democratic press have gone of into
a phrenzy over the matter, and are trying
to make capital at the North by distorted
accounts Of It. They are probably work
ing with view 10 the Maine election.
We repeat, what every candid Democrat
knows, that the Republican party is the
party Of peace. We desire no trouble or
turbulence. We have never sought to
create any. But If the Democrats Of New
pEleanss who boast Of their perfect organ
ization and sheir splendid military disei-
pine, insist On wantonly attacking and
numbering Republicans for political rea-
sons there VIII probably be crow

THE NEW BOARD or REGIsTRAT1oN,

Previous to the appointment of the Board
Of Registration under the new law, Gov
ernor Warmoth was waited upon by Chris
tian Roselius, Esq, and Mr.. j. Ellison, on
behalf of the Democratic party, who stated
that large number of citizens earnestly
desired that at least one of the members
of the Board should be Democrat. The
proposition was urged in the interests Of
peace and Cancellation. The Governor at
once met the gentlemen in spirit of com.
promise, and after remarking that he had
long been in favor of such action.
informed them that the name Of
any gentleman suggested by them
for position on the Board should receive
a favorable consideration. Upon receiy-
ing this assurance, the name of Mr.. George
A. Fosdick was presented, The Board
was yesterday appointed and, as we learn.
confirmed by the Senate, as follows: VIII
liam Baker and George A. Fosdick, of Or

Messrs. Baker and Ferguson are Repub-
licans. The board is composed Of gentle
