Gok. ~. r.. IhonnGS-DEAR SIR: In
pursuance Of my promise to YOU,
propose bfiefytoigive you my i'm
pressions as to the political situation:
did not sooner comply with your
request, because i thought the time
was not propitious The passions
engendered BY the presidential elec-
tion did not permit calm considef.
alton of events. = The election of
General Grant settles much Of the
past, apd opens. q new future to us.
General Grants election is the ratifi-
cation by the people of universal
suffrage, subject to the fourteenth
constitutional amendment, and es- !
tablishes the legality of the existing
State organizations South, which,
have grown up under the Recon-
struction Acts of Congress. Such be-
ing the case, I think our people,
ought to accept these results as nc
complished facts. The election of
General Grant means yet more. The
conviction exists North, with the
majority Of the people, that opinion
is not free South, and that the poli.
tical action Of both whites and blacks!
is subject to duress, proceeding to|
the extreme, in some Instances, Of ac-
tuai violence and even~political assas- :!
sinations.
The election of General Grant isl
the protest of the North against this
alleged condition Of affairs, and
means that all the power of the Fede-
raj Government will be exerted tol
putt down. 1t is the danger arising
out of this matter, which strikes me-
as the most alarming circumstance of
our political future. Unless this con-
dltion, OF things is. suppressed by the!
To!untiiiy action or the Southern
States, the most decided measures

The editor of the Baton Rouge Advocate gives
the following as his idea Of model 100 acre farm
in East Baton Rouge:
Suppose sixty acres in corn, twenty acres in
sugar cane. ten In Irish potatoes, five in sweet
pdtatoes, -four in peach, plum pomegranate, fg and
pear orchard, and one in vegetables, one hundred
acrex in all. Il will require say seven hands to
cult ste IL, at cost for labor Of $1,000 for the
yesXround. The corn crop, 1000 barrels or 1900
busiels, with 200 barrels Irish and 800 barrels
sweet potatoes and the product Of the orchard
and vegetable garden win pay. feed and clothe
the hands. The stock In the present thinly set
tied tcopdition of the country have summer and
winter pasture without cost, and the natural in
creabe-barring loss by thievery-s rapid. The
proit Of such farm is In the 20 acres of cane.
Thiawill produce 20 hogsheads Of sugar and 40
barrels of molasses. This Is q low average. Where
a Su}sl quantity Of cane is closely cultivated the
pr&duct il more likely to prove 80 hogshesds OF
~ tr and 60 barrels Of molasses to the 20 acres
IND less. However. We will take the minimum
