eloquent commendation of the Republican
party;
The child yet unborn, when it reads the
history of these mighty achievements, will
inquire under whose leadership they were
done and when he is told that it was by
that party that was born Of the emergencies
of the rebellion, he will not only himself,
but he will teach his children to sing peans
of praise to the party that accomplished
such works. have faith in the future When
it shall be asked in the future who struck
the shackles from four millions ofslaYes, the
answer will bethe Republican party. When
it shall be asked who clothed these emanci-
pated slaves with the garments of citizenship
the answer will be the Republican party.
When it shall be asked who has made these
fields, once so barren, bud and blossom
like the rose, 1t will be answered it was the
fruit of the labor of the Republican party.
Finally, when men stand in Judgment for
the deeds done here, he who judges
Alright will say: " You felt for those

bound with them you spoke freedom

WORK.

WU0Aa
If the Southern people would but oulti-
vate the arts of peace with the same eour-
age and fidelity with which they carried on
the late rebellion no second defeat need be
apprehended by them, for their cause would
be better, and less vigorously opposed
When we say people, we mean to include
the women as well as men of the South for
who will deny that woman was not a
powerful instrument in the late rebellion.
Let her be prepared now as then to make
the same generous sacrifices, and WELD the
same potent influence over husband, sens,
and brothers. and Gods providence will
surely smile upon holy cause. There are
men and women all over the world en-
deavoring to live nObly, who succeed under
far worse circumstances than now surround
the Southern people. With an abundance
of land, than which for fertility Of soil bet
ter is rarely to be found in the four quar-
tiers of the globe, why should there be
hereafter suffering for the bare necessities
of life-that state of almost starvation
which we hear SO often predicted in gloomy
circles? Let the white people Of both sexes
in the planting districts go hard to work
with their own hands, if necessary; they
will be happier and enjoy greater peace of
mind for it. Let those who have heretofore
been used to luxury and atiuence,
living in town in winter and at the
North or in Europe in summer,
set the example by breaking up
their large Establishments, since farming on
large scale is at present so disastrous to
their fortunes, and go 10 work like the
farmers of the North and West. Suppose
the erroneous but oft repeated assertion
that the colored man will not work to be
true, and there is all the greater reason for
the white man to do SO to support himself
and those dependent upon him. 1t would
be strange indeed if with proper industry
the soil of this productive region should
refuse to yield its workers remuneration
only sufficient for bare livelihood. Be-
sides the great staples of cotton, sugar, ETC.,
grain and vegetables are profitable
source of cultivation, always capable of
being disposed of to advantage. We must
not expect to become rich during the next
few years. Danish that idea from the mind,
and think only of how our daily bread may
be earned under the present circumstances.
From small beginnings come great results,
A better beginning is made by simplify
ing and going to the root of things.
Work, then, white men and women,
and even children; all hands may find
something to do in usefulness. Ii it be
hard at first IL will be easier anon. Be-
come small farmers with dairy and do
nestle manufactures. You who have large
land and stock possessions sell or rent out
to less fortunate neighbors on easy terms
of cash or credit, always reserVing, how
ever, enough for yourselves, and set the
example of industry and thrift. By such
action you lose nothing and may gain
much. This system once put in active eps-
ration, the large landed proprietor becomes
wealthy in rent roll furnishing princely
income. All that is rsquirsd of you will
be to give your affairs personal attention
instead of trusting TO agents.

TIE n1rY MONEY BROKERS.

There is a small ring of money changers
in this city who carry on business entire
ly outside OF legitimate financial opera
tions. They buy city notes at any price
they can prevail upon holders to part with
them for, and sell them to the few men whe
are paying any taxes at all at a profit of
from two to three per cent on the purchase
price. They do not regulate their prices
by any of the laws of supply and demand,
but usually agree that there is cause for
depreciation when they are short and want
to buy and when well supplied city money
advances.
On the oath instant they held meeting
at which the following resolution was
adopted:
Resolved, That in view Of the late order
of General Hancock, enforcing the payment
Of state taxes in greenbacks, we, the
brokers of New Orleans, in order to in
crease our capital, do hereby depreciate
the city notes from three 10 ten per cent
discount.
But as it was difficult to show much re-
lation between the value of city notes and
the payment of state taxes, the attempt to
depreciate our currency to ten
per cent discount did not fully
succeed. Yesterday, however, they
took up General Hancock's order to
restore the old city council and made that
do some service for them in their efforts to
fleece the people. The city papers, enter
ing fully into any scheme that will throw
the blame for the present condition of
affairs on the wrong shoulders, render all
the assistance they can by echoing the cry
of the brokers that the depression is caused
by the restoration of the old council.
The fact Is, the order has very little to do
with the matter one way or the other The
city has too much meney, or what passes
for such, in circulation. These notes can
not be redeemed, because the last legisla-
ture suspended the payment of city taxes.
A prominent member of the council stated
on Tuesday night that the law did not ap-
ply to city taxes; but he is ia error. Wheth-
er it was intended to be so construed may
be question, but it is indubitable that
payment has been and is delayed in conse-
quence. 1t may not be the law, but it is
the practice not to pay, and to cite this
stay law in defense.
Neither the order of General Hancock
nor that of General Grant can have any
real bearing upon the value of city money;
and the attempt to make it so appear is a
very shallow subterfuge.
