ADJUSTMENTS THIS EVENING
The address of the Radical committee says

The address of the Radical committee says
that majority of the Republican party in
this State the whole party it might have said
are unaccustonled to the duties and response
bilities of citizenship. Which is very true.
But the address argues that the troubles in
the State are due to the other party-the
white people-who are accustomed to the du-
ties and responsibilities of citizenship. What
sort of argument is this? Here you have two
classes--one of them unaccustomed to exer-
else the rights, and educated to the duties of
citizenship, the other destitute of experience
as to the one and knowledge as to the other.
Troubles arise, and " trooly loil committee
argues that the responsibility of these trou-
bles must reasonably be thrown upon the ex-
perienced and educated, and not upon the in
experienced and uneducated class. If this
reasoning is good, then it is by all means de-
sirable that all men should be unaccustomed
to the duties and responsibilities of citizen
ship consequently, that there should be no
such duties and responsibilities to be exer-
cised and finally, that there should be no
citizens. Whence we come back to the same
point, that ignorant and uneducated negroes
ought not - be citizens, and we appeal to
the Radical address for the argument and the
proof
The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-11-15
proof.

at 1.-THE Democratic partly has kept from us
emigrants and wealth Of other States and Of for
eign countries. "-[Radical Address.
Who tried to disfranchise adopted citizens
by a false Interpretation of the reconstruction
laws? General Sheridan and his Radical
registrars. Who attempted to disfranchise
several thousand naturalized citizens in New
Orleans dutng the recent canvass? Regis
trar Baker. backed by the squad of New Or
leans Radicals. AL of which shows the warm
welcome that Radicalism extends to emigrants
from orher countries. But in addition, the
whole Republican system of reconstruction is
repellant of white immigration and of foreign
capital White people do not want to come
to State in which they are to be governed
by recently emancipated slaves "unaccus-
toned to the duties and responsibilities Of
citizenship" and capital will not trust itself
where the laws are made and administered
by such agencies, any more than among the
Hottentots. Or Fejee Islanders. That is the
summing up Of the whole matter.
The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-11-15

The Radical committee says that the Demo-
cratic party of Louisiana expended several
hundred thousand dollars during the recent
canvass. Does the committee mean that this
money was expended in order to buy votes
If so, it was needlessly expended, first, be-
cause the Democratic party had large ma
jority on the registration, and second, be-
cause the Radical committee saved the Demo-
Gratis all trouble on this score by directing
their followers not to vote. The truth is that
the Democratic party spent SO Insignificant
sum in this canvass that we are almost
ashamed to name it; but we can say that,
leaving out the expenses of banners and pro-
cessions, ETC., it was little more than half of
what the Radical committee admits having
spent-eleven thousand dollars. The Demo-
Gratis did not need money-they had intelli-
gence, experience, votes and resolution.
What more was required to overcome party
who refuse to vote and yet want their votes
counted. and who are admitted by their CON-
mittee to be unaccustomed to the duties and
responsibilities of citizenship"
The New Orleans crescent. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1866-1869, 1868-11-15

The Democratic party of Louis lana has created
an antagonism between capital and labor Rad.
ical Address.
Who devised the freedmen's bureau, the
sole and express object of which is to create
an antagpnism between property and labor;
which interferes in every way that is annoy
ing and pernicious between the employer and
the employee, and the very existence of which
is based ON the assumption that the employ
ers are constantly combining to Cypress and
plumber and cheat their laborers? In order
to provoke an unnatural antagonism between
capital aud labor, so that the Radical party
might secure the negro vote, the Republicans
have devised a system which defes all the
laws of political economy, and which can
have no other effect than to set employers
and employed against each other and seriously
injure both.

Or an aver age excess Of expenditures over
receipts of S15, S53 "a per annum.
We venture to say that with proper manage
ment, or under different system of admins
tration, both of the institutions named could
be carried on at less than half the amount
they now cost the city with its host of en-
ployes, and the delays and waste of time con-
sequent on the present red tape system to
approve acquisitions, and to audit and pay
bills. We earnestly recommend for the con-
sideration of the City Council the adoption
of an ordinance leasing out to the lowest
responsible bidder, for a term of years, the
labor of the inmates of both the Workhouse
andthe Boys House of Refuge; the contractor
to comply in every way with existing laws
and ordinances, in the control and treatment
of the prisoners, and the education of the
Juvenile offenders. We rather incline to think
it would be as well to include the charge and
keeping of the inmates of the Lunatic Asylum,
for this is another institution in which very
important leak could be stopped. l1a
The city could then dispense with one Of
the two city physicians, thereby saving $500
year, which, together with amounts saved
by letting out the Workhouse and Boys House
of Refuge, would make an annual saving Of
between twenty-five thousand and thirty
thousand dollars, enough to pay the interest
on $3.50, 900 of the million loan.
There are many other expenditures that
might be curtailed to the benefit of the city
finances. In regard to these we propose to
offer suggestions in day or two for the con-
sideration of the Common Council, and we
have the assurance that they will be received
by that body in the kindly spirit in which
they are offered.

WILLIAM TELL.-This masterpiece of the
greatest of modern composers is to be per-
formed tomorrow evening at the New Opera
House as the inaugurating opera of the sea-
son. So difficult composition only shows
the confidence of the troupe in their own
ability, of which we have heard so much.
Mons. Calebresi never would have made
"Guillanme Tell that most scientific, try
ing and laborious opera in the whole repertory
of the stage-his opening piece, if he had not
full confidence in the strength and genius Of
his artists. We look for full and apprecia-
tive house; and from what we have seen and
heard of the newly arrived troupe, we feel
safe in assuring our readers that this great
work will never have been performed in this
city in greater perfection than tomorrow
night.

Or an average of expenditures above receipts
of s2l, 649 10 per annum.
But as enormous as the figures show these
expenses to be, they are as nothing compared
to the showing made by the Boys House of
Refuge for the same period. 1t must be re-
membered that in the Workhouse the in
mates cannot be used for any special labor
that requires mechanical experience, as the
majority are committed for a very short time,
and, of course, could not learn trade while
in confinement. The only labor that can be
performed by the prisoners consists in break
ing stone for the streets, rough carpentering,
making benches, desks, etc., for public
schools, and some blacksmithing occa-
sionally-a species of labor that is not remu-
nerative when it is remembered that large
number of the prisoners consist of women, to
whom but little work can be assigned, except
washing for the other prisoners and for the
various city offices. But the Boys House of
Refuge we learn contains over hundred jul
venile offenders, varying in age from six up
to eighteen years, one-third of whom are en-
gagged in making shoes or in baking bread,
which is sold to the Insane Asylum, Girls
House of Refuge and to the Workhouse.

CITY FINANCES.

There appear to be great many unneces-
sary expenses attending the administration OF
city affairs which, if taken in hand with the
right spirit, could be very materially reduced
We will take for example the City workhouse
and the Boys House of Refuge, which should,
under judicious management, be very nearly
self-sustaining; but the figures which we find
in the controllers reports for the years 1865,
1866 and 1867, and the first half year of 1868,
show an enormous, and we think an unneces-
sary, excess of expenditures over receipts.

A YER'S CATHARTIC PILLS,
For all the purposes of a Laxative Medicine.
Perhaps no one Medicine is so universally re-
quired by eveTyb body a ca,hartc, nor was ever
any before 80 universally adopted into use, in ey
cry country and among al classes, this mild
bat efficient purgdtiye Pill The obvious reason
is, that il is a reliable and far more effsctua
remedy than any other. Those who have tried it.
know hat il cured them those who have not.
know that il cures their neighbCrs and friends,
and all know that what it does once it does always
that it never fails through any fault neglect
of its composition We have thousands upon Ihou-
sands "a certificates Of their remarkable Of
the following plants. but such cures are kuOwn
IN every neighb0Th0od, and need not publish
them Adapted to all ages and conditions IN all
climates; Containing neither calunel or any dele
terious drug. they may be taken with safety by
anybody Their sugar coating preserves hem ev-
er fresh and makes tnem pleasant to take, while
being purely vegetable harm can arise from
their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal yIscera to purify the blood and stimulate
1t into healthy actlon-remove the distractions Of
the stomach bowels, liver, and other organs of the
body, restoring their irregular action TO health
and by correcting, wherever they exist, such
arrangements as are the first origin Of disease.
Minute directions given in the wrapper on

PIlls rapidly cure -
For DYSPEPSIA or FSDTGEsTION LIsTLEssNEss.
LASGUon and Loss Of Appetite, they should be
taken moderately to stimulate the stomach aud
restore its healthy tone and action.
For LIVER COMPLAINT and Its various sym ptoms

or Green SICKNESS, Bilious Collie and Bilious Fe-
vers they should be iudicously taken for each

For DYsENTERY or DIARRHGA, but one mild
dose is generally required
For RHEUMATISM, GOCT, GRAVEL, PALPITArIOS
or THE HEART. PAIS IN THE SIDE, BACK and
LUINS- they should be continuously taken,
quired, to change the diseased action of the sys-
ten. With such change those complaints disap

For DRoPsY and Dg0PsICAL SwELLINGs they
should be taken in large and frequent doses to
produce the effect ut a drastic purge.
For SUPPRESSION large dose should be taken
