A WISE MEASURE,

The Committee of Ways and Means Of
the House of Representatives yesterday in.
troduced the following bill, with the report
appended
An Act for the relief of the Widow Of Thomas
A. Montague.
WHEREAS, The widow of Thomas A. Mon
tague is in destitute circumstances on account
of the death OF said Thomas A. Montague, a
pilot. who lost his life by the burning Of the
steamer Fashion while heroically endeaYoring
to preserve the lives Of her passengers:
Be- it enacted by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the State of Louisiana
in General Assembly convened, That the
sum of three hundred dollars be paid annu-
ally from the treasury of the State to the
widow Of Thomas A. Montague, deceased,
so long as she may remain a widow, and
that the said sum shall be paid on the war
rant of the said widow cOurtersigned by the
Auditor, out of any morey in the treasury
not otherwise appropriated; the first war
rant to be drawn on the passage Of this act,
and the further warrants to be drawn dur
ing the month of January of each succeed.
ing year
New ORLEANS, August II, 1865.
To the Honorable the House of Representative Of
the General Assembly of Louisiana;
Your committee would respectfully urge
that pension OF three hundred dollars per
annum be granted Mrs. Laura Montague
widow of Thomas A. Montague, to continue
during her widowhood, and payable annu.
ally upon her own warrant, Endorsed by the
state Auditor, for the following reasons, to
wit:
That the said Thomas "A. Montague, dc
ceased, was pilot of the steamer Fashion at
the time of the burning of that boat, and
nobly remained at his post of duty and
sacrificed his own life in order to save the
lives of passengers; that even when advised
by brother officers to ''leave the wheel you
can do no good, he heroically declared his
intention to remain until the boat struck
the bank, and it became too late for him to
escape the deyOuring flames.
Your committee believe that such self
sacrificing devotion deserves recognition
from the State, and that the encouragement
of q SINH ar spirit among those engaged in
river navigation (who form so numerous
and respectable an element of our populs-
tion), viii prove the best guarantee of safety
to travellers which can possibly be devised.
Respectfully,

committee on ways anu Means.
The facts Of this case are that some two
years since the steamer Fashion, on a trip
from Yicksburg to New Orleans, loaded
with cotton and crowded with passengers,
when near Baton Rouge, at night, took fire
and in ten minutes was mass of fame,
Mr.. Thomas A. Montague was the pilot
and at the wheel. The boat was headed to
the shore and as she neared the land crew
and passengers sought safety in the small
boats and in the current of the river.
As the flames wrapped the boat the cap
tain ordered the pilot to leave the wheel
and save himself. He replied that he would
not desert his post till she struck the shore.
Manfully he continued at the wheel, and
persisted there.
He left young widow without means
of support.
The Legislature passed through one
branch bill for her relief, but for lack Of
time the measure failed.
We believe pension will now be we'll
and worthily bestowed.
Let us inspire among pilots on the river
steamers feeling of esprit de corps, which
will serve the community in times of peril.
Let US inform these gentlemen that if in
the discharge Of their duty they will stand
at their posts till their lives are lost in the
attempt at saving hundreds, their depend
ent families shall not suffer, but shall
become the wards of grateful State.

THE PoLITIcAL REyoLyrIoN-We have,
says the New York Commercial Advertiser,
more signs Of the progress Of the revolu-
ton going on in public sentiment in favor
Of General Grant In the result Of the
special election held on the tenth instant to
elect q supervisor In the town Of Grafton,
RENSSELAER, county. The Republicans car
RED the town by iifty-sIx majority. It has
heretofore been strongly Democratic, and
was overwhelmingly 90 last fall.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1868-08-19

The Democratic party, SO called, IS an
intOlerant party. withdrawing liberty,
pushed TO the verge Of Righteousness, for
itself, it denies freedom to others. 1t is
proscriptive and vindictive. Bow to its jag
gernaut and you are good fellow; resist
it, and you are demon or cannibal. It
deals in menaces. 1t threatens. 1t bnllies.
1t rnisrepresents its opponents. It weekly
applies to them gross and vulgar epithets,
suppOsing, evidently, that the people
Of this country have so little in
telligence as to be Influenced by
foul words. With lofty pretensions to
superior breeding and gentility, it boots
and yells at its opponents, thus unwittingly
comparing its followers to so many wild
beasts. Processing to be great statesmen,
its leaders have Of late years pursued a
course that has compelled them to sue for
pardon from the representatives Of those
whom they have branded with almost every
term of opprobrium-w they have de-
nounced as fanatics, drivelers, and
fools. The elements of barbarism seem
to gravitate instinctively toward the Dem
ocratic party. Ifyou meet with drunken
rowdy, it will be rare Circumstance if you
DO not hear him belching forth his intense
Democracy in imprecations which must be
nameless, at once indecent and shocking.
We ask any candid Old Line Wing who
may have mementarily coalesced with
this party, if he has not himself a
thousand times felt the full force
Of what We say. The language
which the orators and writer's Of this
Democratic party almost constantly EN-
pley in respect to their opponents is the
language ofsuperciliousness and arrogance:
and the measures they adopt are in strik-
ing harmony with the spirit of their
speeches. They even now propose in ef-
feet to stares the poor 'colored Republicans
Of the South into the support of their
ticket Your votes or no bread is
in substance the brutal and tyrannical |
proposition they make to the colored Re,
Publicans Of the Southern States. This is
the kind of freedom they propose for
others. This illustrates their ideas of lib
erty and liberation. 1t is the lovely genius
Of what is called Democracy. Act as you
please, politically, but If you do not act
to- suit me I'll beat your brains out, and
reduce your wife and children to beggary.
