RESPITE GRANTED.

/
For small fayors make, US thankful. O
Great Gyclopsl There Is an indefinite
sort Of rumor circulating among those who
hint at close communion with the sitters
in the inner circle Of the Ku.Klux Khan,
that the day when New Orleans Radicals
are TO put to the sword and the city laid
waste with fire bas been postponed. Pru-
dent properly holders, who can not see
their personal profit 10 shooting Mig
ger,p and paying for the fun with a ffty
thousand dollar store OF residence, have
apparently eOunseled delay in the hone
that something may yet turn up to avert
the necessity of resorting to such extreme
electioneering measures. The eve Of the
election is the time now fixed upon when
those who think /" Niger hunting, the
primest Of sports are to have their desires
gratifed TO the fullest limit.
If rumor in this instance correctly limns
the plans Of Cyclops and the Star Council.
we officially thank these amiabIe managers
in the name Of all true Radicals, for the
respite granted in the new programme. ana
promise that every loyal Republican win
in November peacefully submit to having
his throat cut from ear to ear, provided
be Think he Should like the operation, or
can net help himself. We humbIy await
your pleasure, gentlemen

NOTICE
To state Tax Assessors and to Taxpayers


AUDITORS OFFICE, !
New Orleans, August g. 1868. !
So many complaints having been made to thi.
office of injustice done to taxpayers by State Asses
sors in different parishes hereby notify all State
Tax Assessors that the Law requires them to notify
taxpayers as follows: -
The Assessors and Board of Assessors shall i'm.
mediately give notice BY advertisements, posted in
at least two public places in each parish or district
that they have lodged their assessment roll with the
Recorder Justice of the Peace, or Parish Recorder
as the case may be- in order that any person az.
grieved by such asses ment may appeal and have the
same corrected il found incorrect" tSee Revised
Statutes of 1856 1855. p. 467. Ss)
also notify all taxpayers that the law makes full
provisions for the correction of all errors Of Asses
sors as follows:
Section 81. Any person conceiving himself az.
grieved by any assessment may, within thirty DAYS
after it shall have been delivered and advertised
as required in the preceding section, make
an appeal in writing, stating particularly the
correction desired; on proof of the fact, the
Recorder, Justice, or Parish Recorder shall
have full power and authority to correct errors but
he shall in no case reduce the amount of any assess
ment without first notifying the Assessor Of his par.
ish or district of such claim and it shall be the duty
OF such Assessor, before the expiration of the time
for closing said assessment roll examine such an
pcatioE, and confer with such Recorder or Justice
on the correctness Of the claim. If any omissions
are discovered errors in the additions are found
the same may also be corrected" GSee Revised
Statutes Of 1885, page 4e7, BIZ
All persons DESTROYS of doing SO can thus have am
pie time and opportunity to have their assessment
corrected and now warn all taxpayers to avail
themselves of this provision of the law as shall not
hereafter, under any circumstances interfere with
the assessment rolls Of any parish.

SEEKING OOL0REp VOTES.

So far from opposing the efforts of Dem
ocrats to organize colored Democratic
clubs; so far from interposing obstacles tc
prevent the fullest and freest expression o.
the opinions and ideas of colored Demo
cratic orators, Republicans should rather
rejoice that Democrats are conqueriDg theil
prejudices against the right of cOlored meu
to vote. They now recognize that right
and one evening last week a Democratic
speaker, in presenting banner to Demo.
cratic organization declared that if it was
his opinion that any of the rights of the
newly entranchised would ever be abridged
by the standard bearers of Democracy, be
would be the last man to sustain such a
party" We are glad Captain Fenner put
himself thus squarely on the Republican
platform of the enfranchisement of colored
men. 1t is an acknowledgment by him as
Democrat that the Republican principle
is correct.
1t is pleasure also to record the fact
that large Democratic meeting, where
only nine colored men were present as
listeners, was addressed by two celored
"orators," Willis Rollins and Scott Gordon.
When numerous, intelligent, refined, ac-
complished, intellectual Democratic organ
ization, like the Third Ward Democratic
Club, are willing to receive political In
struction from ignorant, uneducated, I'M
cultivated black men who have lately
emerged from the barbarism of slavery and
have but recently been invested with po-
litical rights, the signs Of the times are
cheering, and indicate that there will be
no further opposition 10 the enfranchise.
ment of people to whom the Democratic
party has hitherto denied all political
rights. -.. W
1t is hoped that the Democrats of Louisi-
ana will advance another step in the march
Of political progress, and listen to the
speeches of colored Republican orators. Or
il they do not choose to listen to Republican
speeches, at least allow them to be made,
and permit Republican meetings to be held
in all parts of che State without Interrupt
lion or molestation.

WORK,

Work, dig, delVe, try, Work, it is the
great regenerat0r. 1t is what the South
needs. 1t is the prinzordial law given to
man. 1t is the exhaustless source of health,
wealth, happiness. 1t is the open sesame
of prosperity ana success. 1t is the badge
of honor and responsibility. 1t ennobles
alike genius and medlocrity. 1t transmutes
ugliRess into beauty, and clothes the most
desolate places of the earth with the gar
ments of loveliness. From objects the
most uncouth and some times the most re-
pulsive it eVokes visions of harmony and
symmetry that fill the eye with rapture and
the mind with high purposes and noble
resolves. Work-it is the great talisman.
1t strips the individual of his rags and ar
rays him in fine vestmeuts. 1t is, we re-
peat, what the South peculiarly needs.
There are broad fields to cultivate, forests
to clear away, mills to erect, railroads,
bridges, sehoolhouses, and churches to
build There are rivers to clear out, ca
nails to cut, and bitches to dig. There are
roads to lay out and swamps to fill up and
fences to make and a thousand other
things too numerous 10 mention to be done.
Where there is such demand for labor,
and for brains let no man call himself a
good citizen who does not pursue some
useful occupation of mind or body; who
plays the loiterer or lOunger, and consumes

A NEW STYLE.

In the Senate yesterday, while Mr.
Campbell was speaking, Mr.. E. L. Jewell
(pem9 "rose to question of privilege
which he stated in substance as follows:
l will shoot him (Mr. Canpbell) in his
tracks, the son of bitch.
This is anoyel method of stating aques-
ton of privilege 10 the Senate of Louisiana,
1t is style which has been heretofore con-
fined for the most part to grogshops of the
lower type. Perhaps it is "chivalric" since
the word ''chivalric" is new used to express
number of ideas which were formerly not
included in its current definitions.

The municipal election in New Albany,
Indiana, took place there on the fourth in
slant, and resulted in Republican gain OF
seven hundred over the last election.
Senator Hendricks had spoken there on the
previous Saturday at great length in favor
of the Democratic party, men, and meas
ures, past, resent, and to come; and the
result was Republican gain as above of
seven hundred. A large straw, and sure
pledge that Indiana is all right.

EXCITEMENT AT BRAsHEAR.
We found at Brashear that there was
great excitement among the negroes about
a couple of homicides lately committed in
Tigerville. .- ,r
Itappears that George Lacy, colored was
accused of stealing small beef by white
man at Tigerville. He had left Tigerviile
and took up his abode at Brashear previous
to the twenty-frs of July. A warrant was
Issued by Iron Roehel, Justice of the Peace,
for the arrest of Lacy, and he was brought
back to Tigerville on the twenty-frst of
July, and put under guard in the station
house in the charge of the guards. At
about half past eight P. NJ, it being quite
dark, a person unknown to the guards
passed by the door and shot Lacy, who
jumped out Of the window into the bayou,
and was shot and killed under the
bridge after he escaped from the
guardhouse. Caroline Williams, color
ed had come from Brashear to Tiger
vile Rbont week before Lacy was killed
to nurse Lacy's wife. She was in the field
with Lacy's hat on, soon after she went
from Brashear TO Tigefville, and was shot
and killed by some one sscreted behind the
fence. The weeds covered her to her waist,
andD Is supposed that the assassin took
her 70 be Lacy and shot her through
mistake. She lay on the spot where she
was Killed twenty-four hours before cor
oner could be obtained to hold an in

There seems to be very strong desire
among the leading members Of the bar that
concurrent jurisdiction with justices of the
peace be granted to one of the District
Courts. A bill will doubtless pass the
Legislature authorizing this change, and
naming the Third as the court to which this
extension of original jurisdiction shall be
given. Under the new apportionment of
business among our District Courts, the
labors Of the one named have been so much
lightened that the change will not over
crowd it with business, while it must prove
