The Republican finding that the Demo-
cratic vote in the State will reach $4,000 now
insists that the unhappy Radicals were
drivenr? to the polls like black sheep by
ferocioua bands of Democrats and forced to
vote for Seymour What an admirable party,
that let's itself be forced to vote for its adyer-
saries ! What reliable voters, who can be
made to vote the Democratic ticket when it
was SO nicely arranged that they should vote
the Radical ticket But how is it going to
be helped When are these pliable suffragans
going to become inhexible Radical voters
When will the Radical party in Louisiana be
stronger than it is to-day The Republican
expects great things from Grant; Grant is GO
ing to superintend the elections in future; he
is going to see that the negroes vote and that
they vote the Radical ticket; he is going to
furnish corporal's guard perhaps to escort
each black Radical to the polls. But then he
can't make 10000 count as much as so 900.
What pity!

Some, of our contemporaries persist that
there is.no Cuban movement in this country,
and others just as pertinaciously maintain
that there is. 1t is very sure that, if such
movement is on foot, those who have it in
hand have, thus far, kept their secret more
successfully than their predecessors in such
enterprises. On the other hand it is scarcely
probable that revolt like that in Cuba, after
having assumed really formidable proportions,
should fail to elicit some response in this
country, both among thenumerous Cubans re-
siding here, and among the great number of
persons who are always eager for such an op-
portunity of satisfying their craving for adj
venture. We think, therefore, that it may be
taken for granted that there are projects ON
foot in the United States looking to some sort
of volunteer Intervention in this Cuban diff
Guilty. 1t is impossible that it should not be
so, and more impossible now than ever
before.

The Western Radical papers say that Con-
gress must have nothing to do with the vote
OF Louisiana-must not recognize it-must
reject it as an unclean and entirely too Demo-
cratic thing. But what about Sypher. and
Sheldon? How are those self-sacrifcing and
trooly loil F" patriots to get their mileage and
salaries if Congress does not recognize the vote
of Louisiana-at least in part. Wedon't know
how many votes were cast for those model
carpetbaggers but whatever the number
was, say a thousand or two for each, they in
tend to make it the basis of claim for seats
in Congress. They ought to caution their
Western allies to be more discreet in future,
and not to insist on total rejection of the
vote of Louisiana

ance In New Orleans, this season, at the st.
Charles Theater, next Monday evening.
Aside from his great merits as an actor Mark
Smith is a man of education, q warm-hearted
and most generous friend. He has claims
upon the citizens of New Orleans in his pro-
fessionai capacity. His father went shoulder
to shoulder with James H. Caldwell in all his
theatrical enterprises; and it is through the
intelligent energy and perseverance, of those
men that New Orleans can now boast of
theaters equal in size and architecture, as
well as in the excellence of the performances,
to those of any city in America Mark made
his first appearance at the St Charles fifteen
or eighteen years ago. when that theater was
under his fathers management. Young as he
was, he Immediately became as great a
fsvorite as his father, Sol. From that time
TO this he has been perfecting himself by dint
OF study and observation; and it is not at all

We deeply regret the death of Thomas E.
Adams, one of our dearest friends, and one
of the best and mos energetic citizens of
New Orleans. Col Adams has been uuwell
for some months, but neither he nor his
family and friends had any idea that his pow
erful frame was shaken to such a degree as
to excite fears as to the result. He died yes
terday forenoon calmly, and in the full pos
session of his faculties, passing away as
quietly as little child, perfectly conscious
that he had never harmed human being,
and that he had conscientiously obeyed and
practiced the beautiful Christian apothegm,

should do unto you" Tom Adams was an
honest man, steadfast friend, true gentle
man, and as brave u soldier as the Confed
eracy ever had.

Our stateme' At of the citv finances. yester-
day. has had very beneficial effect on the
public mind. Peopleperceive. from the facts,
that our Condition is by no means desperate,
ana thar, IN order to get through our difficult
nes' and to re-establish our credit, it is neces-
sary 'Jnly to take some action which will solve
the city money problem. Our great trouble
fsAs been the depreciation of the city notes to
such an extent as to drive them out of circula-
ton, and to make it impossible for the trea-
sury to use them in payment of accruing
obligations, whilst, at the same time, it is
necessary to receive them for taxes. As long
as they constitute the sole revenue of the
city, just SO long we shall be unable to pay
our debts-unable to pay even our current
expenses, without manifest injustice towards
our creditors. If this money were out of the
way we should very quickly contrive some
eficaeious method of providing for our ex-
penses, and for the liquidation of our out
standing Indebtedness.
There can be no doubt that the city of
New Orleans is perfectly able to redeem her
credit and to pay her debt. 1t is plain, from
the statement published by us yesterday, that
the amount of our obligations compared with
the value of our taxable property is not so
great now as when the city was consolidated,
and, at that time, city bonds sold at pre-
MUM. We believe that the public fully APP
prove of the project to issue three millions in
bonds, now before the council, and it is rea-
sonably sure that the adoption of the measure
would afford immediate relief There is no
reason why these bonds should not be worth
as much in the market as the obligations of
other solvent communities, especially as New
Orleans has always exhibited not only dispo-
sition, but an eagerness which is extremely
creditable to her, to provide for the liquida-
ton of her liabilities. There is no doubt
about her ability to pay her whole debt, and
the issuing of the bonds, proving, as it would,
her desire to deal justly by her creditors,
ought of itself to go long way toward re-
establishing her credit.

The Republican thinks that if property
holders bind together to avoid paying taxes,
tenants viii band together to avoid paying
rent But why? Does it follow that people
will refuse to pay their honest debts, because
other people refuse to be cheated and plum
dered by q fraudulent and intrusive govern
ment When John Hampden refused to pay
ship-monsy, would it have been good ex-
cuse for Sohn Smith not to have paid his gro
GERS bill Z When the Americans resisted the
stamp ACT, did tenants decline to pay their
rents, or refuse to settle with their bakers |?
The Republicans analogy is no analogy, and,
rs an argument, it is simply absurd. Tenants
are interested in the success of the property
holders IN this matter, because after all a
good proportion of the tax falls on them in
the end This is the economical view of the
question; Politically there is just as little
diversity of interest The people of Louis
lana have got tired of paying taxes to sup
port the rickety and fraudulent concern in
Dryades street, and they have pretty well
made up their minds to give the tax-gatherers
