MUSICAL DoINGs.-Since Mr. HORACE WA

He has just issued a catalogue of his new in

the First Premium at several Fairs
Many people of the present day who are at

vertfsements of rival piano houses, probably
overlook a modest manufacture like Mr.,

struments earned him good reputation long
before expositions and the I" honors'', connect

have one of Mr.. WATERS piano fortes in our
own residence, (where it mas stood for years, J
of which any manufacturer in the world might
well be proud. We have always been delight
ed with it as a sweet toned and powerful in-
strument, and there is no doubt of its durabili-

players IN the city, as well as several celebra-
ted pianists, have performed on the said piano,

Der of this valuable publication contains over
fifty articles on various subjects connected with

CONCEALED WEAPONS.

Afr. Editor,-On every occasion of homi-
eide or ARRAY in our streets in which deadly
weapons are used, we are favored with homi-
lies from the daily press on the "so-called'
reprehensible practice of carrying concealed
weapons and the deaths or injuries inflicted
charged solely to that habit. 1t is true that
If man has no weapon he can't be much of
killer though he may be good killee, unless
every body else was in the same fix. But no
one supposes that the absurd and unconstitu-
tional law against carrying concealed weapons
ever prevented the lawless or reckless por.
ton of our community from SO doing, nor
even the sober minded, prudent citizen from
doing 30 when he felt necessity therefor,
and will venture to say that three-fourths
of the very writer's who dilate on the enor-
nifty of the practice are in the habit OCCASION
ally or habitually of carrying concealed
weapons themselves In my humble opinion
the frequency of homicides in our midst is
traceable, not to the habit alluded to, but to
the lax administration of law and the very
general impression that such crimes may be
committed with impunity; an impression fully
justified by the experience of the past.
The law or ordinance forbidding the car
rying of weapons is but the natural offshoot
of inefficiency and negligence of those in
trusted with the execution of the law against
the criminals who use weapons unlawfully. 1
say, let who will carry weapons if he chooses,
but make him strictly responsible for their
improper use. Let swift and adequate pun
ishment follow the commission of crime and
we will have less Off
The law against carrying weapons is dis
graceful, not perhaps to the law makers but
to the executors of the law, for it is confess
sion of their incapacity to fulfill the duties
intrusted to them.
1 will put case and close this intrusion on
your valuables space. A man who is armed,
while quietly proceeding on his way is at
tackled by another who seeks his life; in strict
self defense he kills him. One law acquits
him of murder, on the ground of UNSUITABLE
homicide, another law fines him for carrying
O concealed weapon FIDEs.

The Radical committee say that, during the
recent canvass, they published $4,000 copies
of campaign paper and distributed 300, 900
campaign documents. The " trooly loil {"
engineers must have gone distraught. Last
April they took practical way of carrying the
election. They induced Gen. Sheridan to
pack the registration by increasing the negro
vote twenty per cent. over its real number,
and by cutting down the Democratic vote
nearly one-half. Then they organized their
black forces and led them up to the polls in
squads, companies and battalions, and made
them vote early and vote often. They were
after the offices then, and they took the way
to get them. This time they print campaign
papers and documents to be distributed
among class of whom not one in fifty can
read word, and then they have the exquisite
assurance to say that by this means they
could have carried the State if their followers
had not been afraid to vote. The carpet-bag-
gers are daft. -.-3.

The only true accusation brought against
colored men by our opponents is that they have
sought to exercise the rights bestowed upon
them by United States laws, etc.-[ Radical
Address.
When YVES such an accusation ever brought
against the colored men, and who brought it
The assertion that the Democratic party have
made an attempt on the part of black Radi-
calls to exercise their legal rights the basis of
an accusation against them is false. The
only charge made against them is that they
allow themselves to be deluded by a set of
intrusive carpet-baggers and plundering
scalawags The white vagrant and mendicant
loyalists are the only objects of the COM
bined animosity and contempt of the people
of Louisiana. They are regarded as public
enemies, because they are public enemies;
because they have usurped power by fagi-
tous means and fraudulent devices; because
they occupy positions which they have no
right to occupy, and have conspired to sup
press the public opinion of the State by
allying themselves with simple and con-
fding but ignorant and excitable class who
do not properly or lawfully form portion of
our political community.
