New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1868-07-11

Nothing troubles in this city twas charged
by the Democratic journals, with much
truth, that no arrests were made Of the
many notorious thugs and murderers, be-
cause the police force was acting under the
orders of the very men who instigated the
violence complained of. 1t Is the special
duty of the police TO maintain order, and
afford protection to the lives of the
citizens and where from unavoidable
causes breaches Of the peace, larcenies,
assaults, murders, and other crimes can
not be prevented, every exertion should be
made to bring the offenders to justice. 1t
is notorious that this can not be done when
the friends and instigators of the offenders
sit in high places and have the power Of
screening their proteges from punishment
The establishment of a Police Board in
1864 was step in the right direction, and
under the laws then passed an excellent
system ofpoliee was instituted, but the re-
turn to power of the old element corrupted
the whole force, and finally led the paid
defenders of the citizens into murderous
assault upon them.
Since then salutary reforms have been
introduced and the result has been OBJ
viously beneficial. 1t becomes, therefore,
the highest duty of those who have the
power TO preserve the existing admirable
organization of the police, and see to it
that conscientious, law abiding men are
charged with control. There will be no
necessity for changing the personnel of the
force. Most of them have proved them
selves faithful officers, and they should be
retained on the force for life, or during
their continued good behavior. There
will probably be no changes made
from political considerations. None ought
to be made. And when it becomes nee
essary to remove an unworthy member,
his place should be given to one who will
perform his duties truly and faithfully.
Good behavior should be encouraged by
promotions whenever practicable. By this
means, improvement will constantly take
place in efficiency and good service, and
our police be brought to as high a standard
as that of any in the country,

HON. DENNIS BLURRED.

This gentleman represents the parish of
st. John Baptist. He is of medium height,
heavily built, with large head and bright
eye. His skin is black as ebony, and if he
has occasion to speak of my race" there is
no question as to which race he refers, He
is ready in debate, quite clear in the ex-
preston of his ideas, and is usually found
on the right side of the question under dis
cussion.
Mr.. Burrel was born in Prince William
county, Virginia, in the year lS32-a slave.
At the age of twelve years he could read,
having taught himself at night by the light
of his cabin fire. In 1860 he came, or was
brought to Louisiana, and located, or was
located on the plantation of James God
berry, in the parish he now represents.
For year or two subsequent to his ar
rival here he was persuaded to oficiate as
blacksmith for Mr.. Godberry. About the
year p he "got up" in business for him
self
He was a member OF the late Constitu-
tional Convention, and now bids fair to be
one of the ablest working members of the
House of Representatives.
Though bearing the stigma of being a
carpet.bagger, Mr.. Burrell assures US that
he belongs or du belong to one of the 'frst
families of Virginia. and he trusts that his
comparatively late removal to this State
will not prejudice the Creole population
against him.

1t has rarely happened that Louisiana has
been represented in the United States
Senate by native born citizen. With the
exception of Dominique Bouligny, who was
Senator from 1924 to 1929, and Charles
Gayarre, who was elected Senator but pre-
vented by i'll health from taking his seat,
we can not at this time call to mind any
native of this State who has been honored
by an election. Louisiana was for many
years represented in the United States
Senate by the following gentlemen, none of
whom, as will be seen, were natives;
Henry johnson, born in Virginia.
Alexander Porter, born in Ireland.
Alexander Barrow, born in Tennessee.
Solomon NJ. Downs, unknown.
Pierre Soule, born in France.
John Slidell, born in New York,
Judah P. Benjamin, born in the West In
dies.
To which we can now add:
William P. Kellogg, born in Vermont.
John S. Harris, born in New York.
IL is probable that the members of the
several Legislatures who chose the above
gentlemen acted more with regard to fit
ness for the position than to the nativity of
the applicant The present Legislature
has not departed from usage in that re-
spect. Each contest was characterized By
more or less dissatisfaction on the part Of
defeated candidates and their friends, but
we never observed less of this feeling than
at the present time.

DAMNABbE OUTRAGE.
A RADICAL EDEToR SHOT nowN
BIZ A GENTRY COUNTY REBEL.
Three Hundred Dollars Reward for the
Arrest of the Murderer.


from the st. Joseph (Mss.) Union, July g.
In Albany Gentry County, on Thursday
night, Mr.. W. r. Boyer, local editor of the
Grand River Ae'cs, was shot dead by W. A.
Hundley, of Gentryyille, in the most cold
blooded manner. From Deputy Sheriff John
W. Barclay and Mr.. @. B. Hinkley, of Al
bany, who rode all Thursday night and ar
rived here yesterday we learn the following
particu ars of this fendish outrage:
For some time Boyer and Hundley have
not been on good terms. The difficulty
grew out of political differences, Boyer
being a Republican and Hundley bitter
hOt-headed rebel. The immediate incentive
to the commission of the act, however, was
the publication of a paragraph in the Ne1gs
a few days ago, stating that two young men
from Gentryville had recently visited AL
bany with two prostitutes, whom they had
palmed off at the hotel rs decent women.
No names were mentioned. One of these
men who had thus disgraced themselves was
Hundley.
On Thursday night Hundley arrived in
Albany by the hack at about nine o'clock.
He made several threats as to what he in.
tended to do, but as he had the reputation
of blowhard, little notice was taken of his
remarks. About ten o'clock, as Boyer was
sitting on a stool in j. R. Cunningham's
dry goods store, and but a few feet from the
door, Hundley entered, walked deliberately
up W Nlbhln lhlGC VI iIul lOCb vi ullllf Will
out speaking drew a revolver and fired, the
ball entering the unfortunate mans breast
and killing him instantly. Tie murderer
turned upon his heel and fled, no one knows
whither, though horses telegraph lines, and
railroads have been used literally in all
directions.
Boyer will be remembered by many Of our
business men, as he visited the city some
two weeks since for the purpose of solicit
ing advertisements for his paper. He was
a quiet gentlemanly young man, not more
than twenty-six years of age, and was gen.
eral favorite with his acquaintance. He
was originally from Ohio, but some time
since was editorially connected with the
Grant City Enterprise, Worth county, and
last fall removed to Albany. He was un-
married.
Hundley was an original rebel, and has
for sometime been keeping drug store in
Gentryville. If the Lord ever guides the
officers of justice in their pursuit of fugi.
tive, we trust special Providence will in.
tervene to bring this Internal miscreant to
the halter.
