pieces are next collected in bundles and allowed

THEY DON'T WANT TO VOTE.

The Republican of last evening confesses
that the Radical plan of carrying Louisiana is
to induce Congress to count the vote for
Grant, although the Democratic electoral
ticket may be chosen by the people of the
State. The Republican acknowledges that
the State wiz go for Seymour, but only be-
cause the Radicals are afraid to vote This is
a potent plan for carrying an election. 1t
saves the trouble of voting it saves thatrou-
bic OF registering; it saves the trouble of
doing anything at all but drawing up little
document in which the party in the minority
are to assert that they are really the majority.
but that, on account of wet weather. a. in
Alabama, or Of susceptible nerves, as in Lou
isiana, they prefer to let their opponents per-
form the useless labor of voting. in the calm
and quiet confidence that Congress will make
it all right. The Republican says that the
election in this State will be farce T5;a;v :.
viii be farce if it is to be understood that
the Radicals are to get the benefit of the
electoral vote without attending the polls. 1t
Will be farce, that is, to declare that this
State has voted for Grant, when all the world
VIII know that it voted for Seymour. 1t will
be farce if the voice of our people
is to be declared at Washington, instead of
being declared in Louisiana. 1t will be n
farce if the Republican party SO falsifes the
returns as to seize on an electoral vote which
was, in reality, cast against its candidate.
But it will be a farce in which Radicalism win
exhibit its true character. The result init |
mated by the Republican as likely to follow |
from Democratic success in this State, so |
far from discouraging the Democracy, ought |
to animate them to more vigorous action. If |
the vote of Louisiana elects Seymour, the
great Democratic party of the country will
stand by that vote, and the unblushing char
latans and impostors who contriye fraud and /
organize tyranny at Washington will be apt
TO think twice before attempting to consum-
mate their villainous purpose. If on the
other hand, Grant should be elected without
he vote OF Louisiana, the Radicals would
'nly perpetuate useless and gratuitous fraud
~ rejecting or classifying the vote of the
'tate-a fraud which could not fail to act dis
1strously upon them.
The Republican may be assured that the
democracy OF Louisiana-the white people of
he State-the only people of the State-intend
vote on Tuesday next, and are resolved to
demonstrate the fact that the Radical scheme
+ reconstruction is a failure and that the
ctual government of the State exists in fla
rant defiance of the public opinion of the
community which it falsely pretends to re-
resent, and insolently assumes to govern. If
he Radicals do not want to vote, they are
elcome to stay at home. By pursuing such .
course they will only strengthen the array
facts constituting an irresistible mass of
roof as to the impossibility of permanently /.
Injecting the people of Louisiana to the do
inion of minority composed of profigate /.
lventurers and ignorant negroes.
