ANOTHER UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER,

ANOTHER UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER,
The fierce Democracy of the South do
not appear to entertain favorably the pro-
position Of their Western friends, to sur
render the few votes they will have in the
Electoral College to General Grant. There
is a tradition down here that Grant never
listens to any terms of surrender. There
were no conditions in the celebrated
examples OF Donelson, Vicksburg and APP
pomattox. Ia each case the vanquished
were quietly Informed of what was de.
handed of them, and they very gladly &C.
guessed. No wonder, then, that the South
ern Democracy, who are well acquainted
with General Grants peculiarities in this
respect, are reluctant to consent to another
surrender. And as nothing that they would
be likely to propose would he accepted,
and there is no probability that oyertures
will be made to them perhaps they are
right in refusing to consent to the sugges-
ton.
The case might be different if there were
even remote hope of gain. But to offer
voluntarily to confess that they we're wrong
all through the campaign, and that they
supported the wrong candidates, without
some assurance of reward in the way OF of
fees would be too much to ask of even a
party as devoid of principle as the Demo-
cratic.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1868-11-17
4" ALMOST THOU PERsUADRsT ME TO BE A
CHRISTIAN

The Picayune Of this morning comes
very nearly up to the high excellence of
being Republican. 1t comedies the fact
that there are other than the owners
OF real estate in New Orleans who have
deep-seated rights and vital interests at
stake in matters of public policy. But, I'M
fortunately, as might have been expected,
after making prodigious effort to get out
of the deeply-worn grooves of political
prejudices, it halts near the top and falls
back-relapses into its ole depths.
Whilefally satisfied that the business men,
the laborers andproducers Of this city have
some rights and are entitled to be heard.
it exhorts them 10 Join with the upper
strata" in oVerturniug the present State
government. And why? The reason as
signed is that it is extravagant. But it is
always easier to make a charge than to
adduce proof. And we venture to say
that during the thirty years experience of
our venerable neighbor, he can not cite a
single State administration that shows
better record for economy, patriotism
justice and fair dealing to all men than
the present. None ever so fully re-
presented the real people of the State,
What surety can the Picdnins give that
we would be better off for a changer Would
it be desirable to resurrect the Legislature
of 1861, with Governor Moore at its
head, and all the secession measures fol-
lowing in its train-the convention of
1861, the violent separation of the State
from the National Government, the pro-
scFiption and persecution of Union men:
the civil war, CONSUMPTION, high prices,
worthless currency, neglected fields and
bereaved households? God forbid! Or
would tins State be benefited by substi-
tnting for our present Legislature that OF
1866, which would food the market with
State notes, leves bonds and city
shinplasters to such fearful extent that
the most hopeful almost despairs Of outliv-
ing the evils they brought upon this CON-
munity. Have we another new canal to
lease to an ez-Confederate Genkralon ia.
yorable terms? Or another First National
Bank to involve in ruin by extending &C.
commodations to men of straw?
Such are some of the bitter results Of
The domination Of the Democratic party.
Compared to The blighting influences Of
secession, and the measures inaugnrated
after the war to build up the broken for.
tunes Of those ruined by their own folly
he most extrayagant flights Of the Repub-
lican Legislature are as nothing.
The convention Of 1868 and the first
Legislature under the new Constitution
were actually models Of propriety and
economy, when contsaated with any Of their
Immediate Dsmocraslc predecessors, And
it should De he duty Of paper having the
Interests Of The people really at heart 70
encourage them in all measures for the
public good, and point out any threatened

FACT AND FANCY.

| Two towns in Maine have been named
Grant and Coltax respectively.
Without counting Alaska, the United
States has l,500,0OO0OO acres Of public
| lands.
Grant wanted peace and has two-thirds
OF the whole, which is pretty big piece.
At ball, in lieu of {" Not transferable -
on the tickets, a notice was posted over the
door, " No gentleman admitted unless he
comes hisself."
The more "the smoke of the conflict
lifts, the worse the prospect gets. We've
seen about enough anyhow Let her
smoke louisville Courier.
The negroes of Georgia and Louisiana
are more woolly than ever. The Demo-
Gratis have fleeced then all over Chicago
Post.
-Four years ago Hull, Mass, gave twenty
seven votes for Lincoln and twenty for
Mcclellan, and last week the vote was
Seymour.
Mrs. Atkinson, of Northampton. Mass,
died rom starvation on the roadside lately,
leaving in her house 1882 in gold coin, and
SIG 9S in silver and bills.
French privates while on leave are to
De paid at the rate of one cent in gold q
day. Corporals get two cents, sergeants
four cents, and sergeant-majors six cents a
day.
The majority for Grant and Colfax in
Aiieghany, Pennsylvania, is 10, S9O-a gain
OF 1855. Here is the place where Seymour's
speech produced tremendous impress
SION upon the mercantile and commercial
classes.
The cultivation of tobacco in Virginia,
says the Richmond Enquirer is so rapidly
declining that it will in all probability be
discontinued because ofits unproftableness
Miss Anthony proposes to 90 into the
paper hanging business. She calls upon
her female coadjutors to help her paper
Washington all over with petitions for i'm
partial suffrage
The establishment of a whip manufac-
tory in Westield, Massachusetts, has
created a rushing demand for tenement
houses. one owner having twenty applicants
for his house the first day he advertised it
to rent
General Grants report this year, as head
OF the army, will be very brief, as he will
let his sn6ordinates in the various depar,-
ments speak for themselves, and the mill
tary history of the year will be summed up
IN report from the War Department.
Rutland cast last week the largest vote
in Vermont, being 1897. The Republican
majority was 6S5, a gain OF 215 over the
vote in September.
The influence of the La Crosse Democrat
may be inferred from the fact that, on the
third instant there was not a Democrat
elected to Office within one hundred miles
OF the place of its publication.
The other day Mr.. Mathews, of St. Johns
burg, Vermont, while passing through
Marshfield Woods, was ordered TO ..stand
and deliver by an ugly customer. Mr..
Mathews complied, and delivered himself
so etieet9ally that the outlaw was soon
knocked insensible.
There were many instances in Boston at
the last election at which persons who had
voted the Democratic ticket for very MANY
years cast their first Republican ballot.
The most notable case was that of an old
gentleman nearly ninety years of age, who
came up TO the polls with the whole Re-
publican ticket, saying that he had all his
lie voted with the Democratic party.

VEKx lone AGO.

\ Listening in the twilight, very long ago
To sweet voice singing very soft and low.
Vas thesseHg aballad Of lady bright
Saved from deadly peril by agallant knight
Or a song of battle, and dying foe?
Nay, have forgotten-'tis 50 long ago.
Scarcely half remembered, more than half
forgot,
can only tell you what the song was not.
Memory unfaithful has not kept that strain.
Heard cnce in the tWiight-neYer heard
again.
Every day brings twilight; but no twilight
To my ear that music on its quiet wings.
After autumn sunsets, in the dreaming
light,
When long summer evenings deepen into
night,
All that am sure of is, that, long ago,
Some one sang at twilight very sweet and

THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION,

The meeting of this highly respectable,
selfconstituted body Of gentlemen at this
particular time is calculated to excite some
inquiry on the part of those unacqusinted
with Louisiana politics as to the objects
sought to be attained. With no general
election to be held for two years and no
President to elect for four the motive for
meeting at all is not obvious. And when
we reflect that the whole machinery of the
State government is new and in complete
order and in perfect harmony with the
present Congress, and likely to be so with
the next and the national administration
the perplexities of the case are rather in
tensifed.
If it could be made to appear that this
State was blessed with too much prosper
ity that the State treasury was overflow
ing that our people were really at loss
how to dispose of their surplus wealth
and that peace and good order reigned
throughout the whole extent of Louisiana
to degree bordering on monotony and
that it required the balelul influence of
politicians to stir up the passions of the |
people, and make things little lively-then |
some sort of fitness would be perceived in |
the meeting of the Democratic State Con- |
veRtion. But 1t will not be claimed that |
any such conditions exist.
The true reason for the high honor CEN |
ferred upon New Orleans of having this
convention lies in the fact that the party to
which the delegates belong are "outs" of
many years standing, and they have met
to devise some way by which to return to
their normal condition Of fins" We say
this because every Democrat in this State
has been schooled in the belief that his
party has an imprescriptible hereditary
claim on all the public offices, national,
State, municipal and parochia. Having
been brought up in this belief, they have
neglected to learn anything else. So far
they are agreed fully upon one point, that is
that they are entitled by divine right to
all the power and emoluments of office;
but they are not quite agreed as to the best
means Of accomplishing the desire of their
hearts. Hence they meet in solemn coun-
Gil.
1t might have salutary effect upon their
deliberations to cause their Secretary to
read, on the opening of each session, the
result of the late election for President,
and then consider well the meaning Of the
almost solid vote of the North for Grant.
We do not wish to PREJUDICE them. but shall
patiently wait till they are ready with their
manifesto before assuming that they really
intend to become revolutionary. -,
