You claim to be Louisianians, yet if some
weaker brother timidly suggests that the
people may grow FESTIVE under this burden
of taxation, you rise fercely in your places
and distinctly state that if the laws can't
be enforced, you want to know it; that if
your cherished constituents become refrac-
tory at your mode of representing them,
you have only to wink and one million of
boys in blue would jump at the chance of
giving your said cherished fellow Louisi-
anians lesson which they would long re-
member; you will let them know that the
Constitution guarantees to this State a
" Republican party government.
You may be Louisianians but your
friends, in writing and telegraphing abroad,
make sad mistakes about the condition of
things here. They negligently estimate
the homicides in the State at about ten for
one OF their real number, and, while in

DIOCESE OF New ORLEANs.-Confrma-
1ions.-The Most Rev. Archbishop con-
firmed on the 18th and 18th of August
eighty persons ut two stations on Hays's
Prairie, ON tho 18th and 18th, sixty-two at
two stations on Marmcntau river; on the
18th, twenty nine persons at Point Lyons
station and on the 10Th, forty persons at the
station of Mr.. Aurelian Arcenaux.% These
stations are mostly situated in the parishes
of st. Landry and Calcasieu. The number
of these combinations sufficiently indicates
the strength of Catholics in this part of the
diocese, and how much it is to be desired
that churches, which have been multiplied
i'll that quarter of late years, We're still more
numerous.
After having finished his pastoral visit
in the different churches, chapels, and sta
lions situated in the parish of St..Landry,
the Most Rev. Arch bishop commenced his
visitation in Attakapas, and on the Goth of
August he confirmed one hundred and
twenty nine AZ Point Brcaux, in the parish
of st. Martin; on the Odd of August one
hundred and eighty were confirmed at Yer
parish of Lafayette.

Hibernian Democratic Club.

Everybody either belongs to a club
already, or soon will be ranged under some
one of their countless banners. One of the
has come under our notice is the splendid
and gallant body the name of which forms
the caption of this article. 1t commenced
its existence on the first of this month. and
already numbers it's members by hundreds
forming one of the largest clubs, if not the
largest, In the Third District, as it is one
OF the finest in the whole city in manliness
OF bearing. Its list of officers, as published
In our advertising columns, will show the
whole-souled material COMPOSING it. and Of
which those names are but the fair repre-
sentative.
We confess that we admire the spirit
which anlmates the people in the creation
OF these splendid demonstrations At first
view, stranger might suppose that;it was
a mere fashion of the h0ur-a kind of epi-
demic OF white caps and tin torches but
such an epidemic was never known in this
latitude before, and the existing excitement
bears evidences in it's works which, show If
to spring from deeper source than a mere
passion for amusement. 1t is the inspira-
ton of a popular instinct, and, as such, it
effects two objects now of the most vital
Importance to our welfare, more effectually
and thoroughly than any device of the most
profound craftsmanship could do.
These two objects are: first, conviction |
brought to the Northern mind that bona tdc
peace exists at the South and, secondly, |
the assuring of that peace.
Many of the Northern people are deluded
INTO an idea that the South is still in a state
Of war-rcbellion, as they are pleased to
.erm it. They concede that it is not omen.
