THE LAST AMNESTY.

The Presidents last amnesty proclamation
applies to all who were not embraced in pre-
ceding prcclamations, except those against
whom judicial prosecutions are pending. The
exception, We believe, comprises but two
cases-that of ex-President Davis and that OF
Lieut.. Braine The peculiar effect of eIecu-
tive amnesty is to relieve those to whom it is
extended from punitive consequences in
Cured by them on account of certain acts
which it consigns to legal oblivion. Among
those punitive consequences, the most con-
spicuous have been in the nature of
political disability. Several thousand per-
sons in this State have been excluded from

of belonging to the category of ''unpardoned
rebels" In legal strictness. there are no
"rebels" and no " traitors" except such as
are declared to be so by Judicial conviction

THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

An important notice is to be found in our
special column, from the chairman of the
Democratic State Central Committee, calling
upon the presidents of all ward clubs
throughout the city to assemble their respec-
tive clubs Immediately, for the purpose of
thorough and efficient organization, in view
of the impending presidential campaign, and
to make preparations for the grand ratifca-
ton meeting, to be held shortly after the an
nouncement of the nominations by the New
York National Convention.
1t is of the highest importance to our sue
cess that the whole Democracy of New Or
leans and of the State should go theoretically
and Immediately to work in preparing for the
momentous struggle which is rapidly ap-
preaching. The victory in the next presi-
Dental election should be as triumphant and
overpowering as it is possible to make it.
The larger our majority the more irretrieva-
bic and lasting the downfall of the many
headed Hydra of Republicanism. Let the
Democracy throughout the country review in
memory the unnumbered woes which have
sprung from radical misrule, and summon all
its strength, its courage and its energies for
the contest. No portion of the Union has
suffered more grievously than New Orleans;
no portion of the Union, therefore, should
manifest more alacrity and zeal in the effort
to redeem the American people from the
atrocious thraldom under which we have
groaned for several years.
Arouse yourselves, brave Democrats! Press
to the rescue of your languishing country
and of your shackled rights

TIE GBEAT CATHOLIC FESTIVAL AND Picnic AT
THE OAKLAND CoURsE.--The grand reunion of the
st. Joseph Picnic Association, which is to come
of to-day and tomorrow at the Oakland Race
Course. near the Halfway House, promises to be
a delightful and magnificent affair. II is hardly
possible to make bare mention of the programme,
far less to expstiste upon the thousand sttrac-
tiops held forth to the people of New orleass to
attend on both these holidays. Hurdle, mule,
running, trotting. scrub, foot and sack races,
horizontal bslsnce-p exercises, greasy pole.
greasy pigs and grand foot ball match, to-day:
and tomorrow an increase in those amusements.
We presume the crowd to- day and tomorrow
will exceed in number and enthusiasm any that
has yet assembled on the Oakland Course.

the provisions of the l4th amendment TO the Cou'
st1tion Of the United States, and the 18th article
of the Constitution of Louisiana, was read and or
dered printed.
The bill defining the duties and fixing the COM
pensation of the State printer was read by title
and ordered printed. Its further consideration
was declared postponed until the appropriate
committee should be appointed. further dis
cussion, however, and division ensued, IN which
the postponement was lost.
Mr.. Morey (R.) of Ouachita, then moved to lay
the bill on the table. II had been said this was q
matter of Importance, requiring immediate atten-
ton. He desired to inquire how much OF the peo-
pies money was TO be voted away, and at what
rates to an official printer who would hold ONCE
two years longer than the representatives them
selves.
The bill was laid on the table by q vote Of SO to
81.
motion to draw for seats was then made. One
member near the front naively proposed that, " as
all were satisfied" the present arrangement should
be retained. This called forth indignant denials
from members who had been compelled to take
hack seats, and the subject was dropped.
A proposition to elect postmaster and other
officers wss made, bat was postponed.
A motion was then made to adjourn. This motion
was withdrawntemporarily at the request OF Mr.hc
Millen, who urged the necessity OF an immediate
appointment of the committee on elections, and at
the same time merely suggested" that 10 view
of the Importance Of two of the bills now before
the house, the members might devote little of
their time on the 4th, to their adoption.

John the Baptist. This committee was empow-
cred TO send for persons and papers.
Mr.. Kent, of st. Helena, stated that he would
be unable to give the necessary attention to his
duties as member Of the committee, and re-
quested the appointment of some one in his
place.
Mr.. Foute 3D. of Vim, was named instead.
but Mr.. Hanlon CD Of Orleans, having stated
that that gentleman was unwell, and consequently
unable TO serve, the vacancy was filed by the ap-
poiDment Of Mr. Pratt (D.) of Claiborne.
The House then adjourned to Saturday morning
at 10 o'clock.
