REBEL ouTRAeEs IN THE COUNTRY.


We publish this morning authentic &C
counts Of murders and outrages in De Soto,
Catalonia, and Morehouse parishes in this
state, which should be sufficient to cause
every law-abiding Union man to rise from
bed of sickness to vote for the constitution
and the Republican ticket. 1t is high time
the career of the halEcivilized and pos
lively savage white rebels in these parishes
was checked. Their political existence de.
ponds upon the defeat of the consultation.
The lives, fortunes, peace, and happiness Of
all good men, on the other hand, depend on
its adoption.
Impelled by spirit of hatred which
seems to be innate with all rebels the So
called Democrats in the upper parishes are
banded together in armed squads for the
purpose of numbering and intimidating Re-
publican voters, and more especially col
ored men. Captain Chapman, an ex-ofIicer
of the army, G. G. Antoine, member of
the late convention, and a white man,
whose name is not reported, are believed to
have been killed. Franklin Snider, the
candidate for Representative from 0uachita
parish, has certainly been killed while on
his way from Lynn Grove to Bastrop, More
house parish.
Thus we see the auimus which controls
the rebels of Louisiana. They see the
certainty before them of losing their politi-
cal power, and desperately resort to as
sassination, not from any hope of retriev-
ing their lost prestige, but in a spirit oil
revenge for the loss.
Nearly every account we have received
from the northern parishes of this state,
especially De Soto and Morehouse, since
the canvass began has stated that the lives
Of Union men were unsafe, and that more
troops were greatly needed What effect
these accounts may have had upon the
commanding general we are unable to say,
but hope to hear that be made such 6ispo-
sition ofhis forces as to have insured a sup
preston of the disturbances and the sum
mary punishment of the murderers.

Seine Of these officers have done their
duty nobly, but others have dIseraeed
themselves and the positions they have
flled. Last night warrants were issued
against several for Illegally refusing to re,
eeive votes offered and illegally reLaininq
certificates Of registration offered for their
inspection. These gentlemen are also
liable TO prosecution under the civil rights
bill, and for personal damages, and we are
happy 70 assure them that they viii be
prosecuted to the utmost extent Of the
law.
We are reliably informed that ia Pre-.
clnet No. ?, Fourth Ward, and in other
localities, rebel-democTatic candidates were
allowed among the commissioners while
Republicans were excluded. These nat
teFs will be thoroughly investigated.

REPUBLICANS.

Remember that military orders forbid
carrying weapons on the days of election.
All persons guilty of disturbances at the
polls, or of riotous and disorderly con-
duct elsewhere in the city, will be arrested
and not released until after the election.
Our enemies will do all they can to pro-
woke you into difficulties. Republicans
should be peace-loving men, and conduct
themselves with the utmost prudence. Let
no efforts Of our opponents lead you into
controversies.

THE ELECTION,

1t is a source of great qualification TO the
Republicans of New Orleans that the cleo
ton yesterday pessed off so quietly. The
result of the polling yesterday is also most
encouraging.
Notwithstanding the rebel-Democracy
had almost every advantage but numbers
on their side, Notwithstanding the an-
noyances aud injustice to which the cOlored
voters were subjected, it is generally con-
coded that the Republicans are near three
thousand votes ahead. Let every Repub-
licah do his duty this day, and all will be
we'll.

FIRST POLL OF THE SEVENTH PRECINCT
THIRD WARD,

Many of the proceedings at this poll were
wholly uniustifable, and in some cases cut
rageOus. We are informed that one of the
Deputy Sheriffs was drunk nearly all day,
and we know that most of them were ig-
norant Of their duty, or else Intentionally
neglected to do it. There were two lines of
colored men which reached nearly across the
street, and many had waited patiently five
and six hours to vote. When a white man
came be was placed, not behind those who
had been waiting so long, but, if not al
lowed to vote Immediately, behind two or
three other white men. A Policeman
stated that one white man and one colOred

ELECTION RETURNS.

We request our friends throughout the
country to send US the resulto the elections
in their precincts and parishes at the earliest
possible moment. A record should be and
probably win be kept by the supervisors OF
the election of every man who votes
throughout the state, and Immediately after
the close Of the polls on Saturday night we
trust that our friends viii send US the result,
- nearly as it can be obtained, by mail, or
telegraph, or by messengers,

YOTBRs, BEWARE or FRAUDS

Look at the names on your tickets, or
have them inspected by some one in whom
you have confidence, before voting them
Be certain that they have at the top, "FOR
THE CONSTITUTION" and next "FoR
GOVERNOR" II. G. WARMOTH, and
then the name of every regular candidate
in its proper place under the Office for
which he is nominated. All sorts of false
hoods will be circulated by our opponents,
and many kinds of tickets offered to you.
Do not be deceived by the appearance of
tickets. 1t is quite possible our opponents
may succeed in getting up a ticket nearly
or quite like ours. Trust to nothing but
the names, and be sure they are rightly
placed Get the regular ticket, and keep
it until you see 1t safely in the ballot box.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1868-04-18

We suggest that at each poll on election
days the Republicans be prepared to have
acoyered wagon or ambulance, from which
TO distribute tickets if it should rain. The
rear Of the wagon can be open, and two
or three persons inside can be always
ready to hand tickets to those who desire

THE TALIAPRRRn TICKETS.

Do the Republicans Of Louisiana know
that all over this state tickets have been
circulated headed
AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION"
FOR GOVERNOR,
y. G. TALIAFERRO ~
And that in this city this same candidate for
Governor is seeking the support of Repub-
licans on the claim that he is more radical
than Judge H. G. Warmoth? From various
parts OF the State we have received tickets
headed as above. Shame on such decep-
ton and hypocrisy!

e. A movement has been inaugural
ted i'll the nongrel Rump at Richmond to
deprive those who either failed to register
or were prevented from doing so, prey-
Gus to the late election, from registering
thereafter. We refer to the resolution Of
fered on Friday by Maddox, white radical,
declaring that 'thc registration of the vo-
ters in this State was. by the terms Of those
reconstruction laws, and in the true in
tent and meaning OF Congress, completed
at the time of the election for or against
a Convention, held on the pa of Oct. last,
and that any registration that has been, or
may be held, subsequent to that time, has
been or will be. without authority of law,
unless hereafter authorized by the law
making power"
If successful, this movement would pre-
vent, or render null and void. the re-regis-
tration of the voters Of Richmond accord
ing to Gen Schoteld's late order, and
thus prevent the discovery of the frauds
by which MorfiSsey and his companions
hold their seats in the convention. We
suppose Gen Schofeld probably under
stands his duties, and will proceed accord
ingly.

Another "Guy Fawlkes" Plot!

On Thursday last in the House of Re-
sentativess, Speaker Colfax read a letter
from the chief of police Of New York, to
the chief of police in Washington, stating
that one hundred and sixty pounds Of nj
tro glycerine had been found in unauthor-
lied hands, and he feared it was intended
for Washington.
This cruel hoax was no doubt gotten up
by some wag for the purpose of operating
upon the guilty fears" of the radical
members. and 1t seems to have had that
effect, from all accounts.
Seriously, if these zone hundred aud
sixty pounds of nitro glycerine" could have
been used as lever for hosting the radi-
Gals so high that they never could have
been heard Of again, wouldn't that have
been ii terrible calamity?

Another. Supplemental Act.

On the Goth ut. the House concurrcd
in the supplemental bill to the reconstruc-
ton acts passed by the Senate the day be-
fore. 1t provides that majority of voters
shall ratify a constitution, and that persons
proving that they had previously been re-
glstered may vote anywhere in the State
after ten days residence and that Con-
gresslonal and State elections shall be held
simultaneously with the elections to ratify
the constitutions.
1t will therefore, under the provisions
OF this act, require majority of the votes
cast to defeat the constitutions being franz
ed by the radical conventions in the South
ern States.
1t is scarcely to be hoped that any of
the cotton States will be able to vote down
the negro constitutions Under the pro-
visions of the act referred TO, and the man.
agement of the carpet-bag brigade from
Massachusetts. any required vote can be
had in those States. With the radical
party the end sanctiies the means"
Virginia, however, may defeat the ne
gro constitution, if every white voter will
come to the polls.

Gsgy Friday afternoon. IN the Car

Gzs- Friday afternoon, in the Conven-
ton, pending the consideration Of the re-
port of the Committee on the Elective
Franchise and Qualifications for Office,
Mr.. Walton was entitled to the floor, but
being unwell, Mr. Maddox moved that he
