sUGAR-uoATBD PILLS,

Perhaps the greatest triumph OF medical
science and skill consists in the success
with which the most offensive qualities Of
the apothecary's compounds are concealed
by the use of little sugar. Twenty years
ago the patient swallowed nauseous
draughts and boluses with terrible grimaces
just as the poor victim yielded to the sur
geon's knife with groans and supplications
for mercy. Now jalap and rhubarb and
quinine are swallowed without a qualm in
the form of sugar-coated pills, and the
etherized patient enjoys "a sweet dream of
peace while undergoing the most tOrmida-
BILE surgical operation.
The sugar-coating process has been ap-
piled to politics with equal success. The
bitter pill of radicalism has to be swal-
lowed in the South. That there is no
avoiding. Without this disagreeable tonic
Southern society would 60 to decay, would
perish. Public opinion, a most excellent
and trustworthy physician, has prescribed
the bitter medicine, and down it must go.
But see how nicely our Southern friends
get over the difficulty. The pill is sugar
coated by simply naming it "Conserva-
tism.n Under that form the most extreme
radicalism is being swallowed every day.
Let an ex-oficer of the Federal army, for
instance, say few words against General
Butler or Thaddeus Stevens, and our op-
ponets swallow him whole, Let Yankee
merchant have it quietly whispered about
that his principles are for sale like his
wares, he is gobbled down without delay.
Let Republican abstain for time from
the liberal churches and lectures and fire.
quent those of the other party, and down
he goes. Finally, let the newspapers call
any writer or speaker conservative, al
though he may vote the Republican ticket,
and be at heart a confirmed radical, the
people swallow him without a qualm or a
grimaee.
This commea practice of plastering a
man over with conservatism " before he
can be taken in, reminds one of an analo-
gous process in that part of the natural
kingdom whose Inhabitants creep upon
the belly" The only difference is that in
one case the toads are swallowed; in the
other the toadies.
As we remarked before, this sort of thing
is good for the South. An infusion Of new
life and blood is indispensable. But the
roundabout method in vogue reminds us OF
those old lions mentioned by Apollonius,
which in order to renew their youth and
strength fed upon Caucasian apes whose
principal food had been red peppers.

story of the customhouse; It would NOT DC
the means of creating case OF teVer'
Now, if there is anything under the sun.
conclusively established by statistics, it is
that cleanliness contributes to the health
of cities. This thing has been demonstra-
ted again and again; and the man who
does not believe it, and writes such trash
as the above, either lacks ordinary compre-
hension or attempts purposely to mislead the
community. How long, we wonder, Will
the good people Of New Orleans consent
to be duped by their blind leaders?
According to recent statistics collected
ia New York, the mortality reports show
that the death rate in the filth-ridden First
Ward Of that city is forty-one and half per
thousand, while the average OF the entire
city is twenty seven and half. "The
population of this Ward" says the last
annual report of the Board OF Health,
1" die of diarrheal disorders and other dis
eases which exist in filth"
Were the two philosophers living in 9TH
er parts of the world they might contend
that heaps Of dead dogs and donkeys in the
public squares Of cities were part OF the
plan of Providence. Whatever might
come from the ignorance, depravity, or la
illness of man, they would cry out "Rtsmest,
Kismest I" It is the 1oill Of God Had the
same philosophers lived few centuries
ago they would have as eagerly commended
that nastiness is essential not only to health
but also to sanctity. 1t is difficult to ac-
count, on any ordinary principles, for the
existence in the midst of us of certain
characters who obviously belong to another
cline or to past age Of the world. This
brace of philosophers must be either Mus
sulmen santos few thousand miles out of
their longitude, or two dirt-loying monks
of the dark (and somewhat musty) ages,
who, in the cycle of metempsychosis, have
turned up, one as New Orleans Alder
man, the other as a commercial editor.

Honor, 10 the Country,s mead.

A meeting of the officers and members of
the Grand Army of the Republic and of the
Army and Navy Union will be held this
evening, as per call published in another
column, to perfect measures for decorating
the graves of the thousands of the country's
defenders whose rem aims lie in the sod of
Louisiana. It is fitting that the highest
honors be paid to the memory of those he.
roic men who left the avocations of peace
and the comforts Of the home circle to
stake and lose their lives in defense of the
land they from their forefathers had in
trust. Their monument is the grateful re-
membrance Of their living countrymen.
The movement is in concert with SINH
lar one initiated by the Grand Army OF the
Republic at Washington, and destined to
extend to every part of the coun.
try where brave man may have found an
obscure grave. From the character for en-
ergy of those who have taken this matter in
hand we confidently expect tine good work
will be prosecuted to an early completion.
A spacious cemetery was donated to the ma
ton by the city of New Orleans N 1sCi, on
the ancient battlefield of Chalmette, where
already the remains of thousands of Union
soldiers rest in peace awaiting the final
reveille that shall summon them to their re-
ward for the good deeds performed on
earth. To decorate their tombs will be the
pleasing task of the patriotic organizations
who have undertaken the work.

VALUE OF THE REPUBLICAN TO
BUSINESS MEN.

Business men, lawyers, judges, and in fact
all classes should bear in mind that the
REPUBLICAN publishes officially the laws OF
Congress as soon as passed, the important
advertisements of the government quarter
masters and commissaries, inviting pro.
posals for all manner of supplies, the entire
official proceedings of all departments OF
the city government, including the sheriff's
sales for delinquent taxes, and is the only
paper in the State in which every advertise
ment in bankruptcy is ordered to be pub
Ished. Aside fromits political, commercial,
and literary value, it is indispensable to
nearly every man in the State on account of
these Official notices. 1t is the only daily
paper now published in the State that had
sufficient enterprise to publish the new
Constitution entire. We do not neglect
any subject that is Of any interest to our
people.

A BRACE OF PHILOSOPHERS,

Notwithstanding New Orleans is in i'm
minent danger Of pestilence from the in
tolerably filthy cess pools in the rear of the
city called draining canals, or more prop
erly the "City Fathers Fish Ponds,n we
notice that one of our Aldermen recently
voted against the cleaning cut Of the said
canals on the ground that filth is not IN
healthy. We advised this valuable city
father to test his theory, which be once de-
Tended in q thesis against all corners, by
camping on the banks Of the Galvez canal
and living on the monsrous cells and cat
fish that swarm in the congenial dlth. But
philosophers, like misfoFtunes, rarely come
singly. The New Orleans Times is respon-
sible fer the following, and we publish IL
as fair sample Of the average ability and
reliability Of some Of our contemporaries :
Some people are beginning TO talk already
about dirty streets-the tears Of another cpl

TIE LIBERAL snnIa.

There is nothing of which people in gen
eral are SO liberal as good advice and Of
all bounteous bestowers Of this gift there
are none quite so lavish as the editors Of
the Democratic press. They grayely advise
General Grant to resign, assuring him that
1t would be "much more proper" They
also advise Mr.. Speaker Colfax to resign,
il would be SO much more proper.n We
presume they would have advised General
Washington, when he was a second
time candidate for the Presidency, to
resign, it would have been so
much more proper To the pensive OBJ
server it however might seem that the Dem.
Ocrats have nothing to do with the matter
any way, and thatif they have good advice
to give they might bestoW tupon the large
number Of their own party who so sadly
need It. The Camp street journals are
especially given to this liberal distribution
of advice to the Republicans, but as their
gushing method did not avail much at the
last election It will be equally fruitless in
the future.

The anxieties ofthe impeachment trial are
not the only affections that have recently
beset Andrew johnson. The duty has de-
volved upon him of transmitting to Con-
gress the Constitutions of Louisiana and
North Carolina. This he performed in the
following unwilling and sullen manner:
To the Senate and House of Representatives:
transmit to Congress the accompanying
documents, which embrace all the papers
that have been submitted to me relating to
the proceedings to which they refer, in the
States of North Carolina and Louisiana.
ANDREW JOHNSON.
1t will be observed that the President
studiously refrains from calling the doc
uments" by their proper names, or limiting
that they may have been Constitutions, but
passes them in on the executive tongs as
papers relating to the proceedings to
which they refer He seems to entertain
as great a repugnance for free Constitu-
tons as the Head rebel is said to have for
holy water.

The correspondents Of the rebel press are
now devoting their time to the invention Of
some new, absurd, and improbable anee-
dotes purporting to illustrate impeachment
proceedings. According to one account
General Grant devoted bis time night and
day in calling on Senators for the purpose
of telling them hOw to vote. Another
pictures General Butler ever restless
and arrogant, continually rushing
upon repeated rehuffs from the
counsel, witnesses, and Senators
retained for the respondent. Even Long
John Wentworth is laid under requisition
for an epigrammatic dispatch to Senator
Trumbull. 1T is said," or at is stated
is invariably the authority for these post
impeachment fctions. We have often
noted that when rebel paper publishes
an improbable story it is always done in
the anonymous guse of at is said.r
