THE CARPET-BAG.

We used TO study arithmetic In our youth
Cd the banks of the Bayou Crocodile. Re
Numbering the "Ru'e of Three" we have
spilled it to the Picayune's editorial state
nent that because the agents of the Freed
mems Bureau have only reported fourteen
murders in the month and q half'' in tou,
marshes of Louisiana, the statement Of
Governor Warmoth for the same period is
erroneous.
There are forty-eight parishes In the State.
The problem is, then-if four parishes, in
,ir weeks, give fourteen murders, what will
fortyeight giveG
Z: IA: 4S: 16s.
One hundred and siXty-eight! But the
estimate of the Governor was only 100 fol
the whole State. And he did not say they
we're all Union men,"
BE did not speak of the matter as ques
ton of politics. He spoke of disorder ant
lawlessness In all parts of the State, which
the local authorities either would not Oh
could not repress and punish.
One would think from the style Of the
Pioaytine that it did not wish that such
disorders shonld be stopped.
