THE NEW GOVERNOR OF LOU.
KGIAMA
From the New Orleans Times. Sd.

FROM the New Orleans Times, 3D.
Judge Joshua Baker, who, by appoint
ment of Gen. Hancock, succeeds B. F.
Flanders az Governor of the State, is an
old citizen of Louisiana, who for many
years has resided in the Attakapas, and
has been a successful and energetic sugar
planter
Judge Baker, we believe, was educated
at West Point, but has all his life been en-
gagged in civil pursuits. He has always
borne the reputation of an honest, enter
prising and patriotic citizen. In politics
and in public affairs, his views have ALWAYS
been strongly Union and Conservative. In
the State Senate he was an excellent mem-
Der, rising above party influences and sup-
porting whatever he thought to be for the
interest and honor of the State and the
safety and permanency of the Union. En-
dowed with excellent sense and sound iudg>
ment, an honest heart, and soul devoid of
art, cunning and indirection, Judge Baker
will, we feel assured, prove the Governor
which Louisiana in her present situation
greatly needs. He was a member of the
Conservative Convention which met in
Philadelphia in 1866, and has always adyo-
Gated the strongly national and conserva-
tive views of President johnson.
Judge Baker was born in Mason county,
Kentucky. He is fully qualified under the
reconstruction act, can take the test oath,
and will prove, we are satisfied, a faithful
and energetic Governor.

TIE telegraph frequently tells us the
receipts of internal revenue for such a
day was one million of dollars, or some
other amount. Where does it come from
1t comes from the people-the great mass
of laborers. Where does it go to? 1t
goes to the opulent creditors of the gov
eminent They pay nothing, but re-
ceive all and they are not even content
to receive greenbacks, but must have
gold That is what McCulloch and his
hackers want them to have at the eX-
pense of the people. Reader, do you
want it that way?

A MOST WORTHY EXAMPLE.

The following, from the Lebanon Herald,
presents an example worthy of imitation
by negroes outside of Wilson county:
CHRISTMAS FAIR.-Some of the colored
women of Lebanon, belonging to a society
called the Daughters of Zion," got up a
fair at the courthouse on Thursday night,
the 10Th ult. There were a great many
articles of value exhibited them
quilts, coverlids, shirts, pants, vest patterns,
jeans, butter, lard, etc. The parties get
ting them up deserve great credit for their
skill and perseverance,, and will certainly
receive the encouragement of all true
friends to the colored race. There were
several handsome tables set, and some of
our leading citizens partook of the excel
lent fare spread before them. The COM
mittee appointed to award the premiums
was composed of Messrs. A. r. Fonville,
A. r. Davis and A. Y. Armstrong. The com
mittee to value the tables and property
Messrs. I. J. Wilkinson, Berry Cox and
w. E. Foust-estimated them to be worth
$675. The whole affair was under the
direction of Mr.. H. c. Sharp, assisted by
Mrs. Jane Green, President, and Miss
Lethe White, Secretary. We are pleased
to see the colored people here turning their
attention to things useful, and would recon-
mend those at distance TO follow their
example. By this means they will make
friends Of all good citizens, who will then
take pleasure in assisting them.

RADICAL reconstruction is going on
swimmingly. 1t is starving one-third of
the people of the South, and pauperizing
the rest. Yet there are some Radicals
in the South, who favor the plan.

The New York Eeening Post, reliably
radical as it is, reyolts at the proposition
in Congress to authorize majority of
voters, instead of majority of those
registered, to ratify the bones-and- banjo
constitutions fixed up for the Southern
States. 1t says that it viii throw out an
immense majority of the wealth and
cultivated intelligence Of the Southern
States, and proceeds;
of it were possible for trick SO unpa-
triotic 10 succeed, after it's exposed, it
would only induce a more tremendous re-
action, which would overwhelm a party
capable Of it with permanent ignominy."
The Erening Post, the New York Tri-
bune, the Springfield Republican and
other Radical journals of the North,
have given utterance to such protests re-
peatedly, since the work Of reconstruc~
ton was begun But the protests amount
to nothing, Congress pays no attention
to them; and when the most Ubiquitous
of laws are passed-albeit against these
protests, these same journals uphold them
most obstreperously, and denounce every
body who does not fly with alacrity to
their support The country, and especi-
ally the South is tired of such pleas in
their behalf from such sources. They
know that the moment the law above re-
ferred to is passed, the Post will become
a most jealous advocate for its enforce
ment, though it be the vilest and most
unpatriotic triek" to exclude the
wealth and cultivated intelligence" of
the South from voice in their govern
ment. 1t is time such stimulation should
have an end. For the sake of decency,
if not of honesty, these foolish protests
should cease

THE GOVERNOR REQUIRING HIM
GEVE

Brownlow
Knoxville, January 8, 1868. - Mr..
| MERCER: You are to have an election in
your county tomorrow, for Circuit Judge. 1
am receiving letters and telegraphic dis
patches in reference thereto; all of which
decline answering. l take this occasion
to say, however, that when the Legislature
forms judicial circuit by law, and an
election for Judge is held in pursuance
| of my proclamation ordering said election,
| and held in accordance with the existing
| laws of the State, the man who may be
elected by the people, feel it my duty to
commission. Whether he be eligible OF in.
| eligible, whether qualified or otherwise, can
be setted by the courts of the country,
whose province it is to determine the
questions in dispute.
w. G. BRowELow,
Governor of Tennessee.
There was time when, with regard
to the election of officers to be commits,
missed by the Executive" Gov Brown
low claimed and exercised the right of
going behind the returns to inquire
whether any persons had voted upon cero
tifcates to which they were not in his
estimation entitled He exercised this
assumed right with an INSCRIPTIONS
hand when his political henchmen were
in danger of loosing place. But he
thinks he has got the law fixed up so that
there is no danger on this score. But
there is another case which shows how
far the Governor has changed and how
law~abiding he is becoming Ii the
early months of last year the Governor
issued a proclamation ordering an cleo
ton for Attorney General in the Maury
(eleventh) Judicial Circuit The election
was "held in pursuance of his proclama~
ton and "in accordance with the exist
ing laws of the State, and the successful
candidate had been previously commits
stoned Attorney General for that circuit
by the Governor, yet he persistly re-
fused to issue commission to him
after the election, and on the 18th of
October last he issued proclamation
ordering another election Why did
the Governor refuse to issue the COM
mission TO Capt Hickey the successful
candidate2 He must have regarded him
as eligible and qualified, for he had pre-
viously appointed him to the position.
He was elected under circumstances
which the Governor now declares it was
his duty to commission him. Then why
did he withhold the commission2 Was
it not because Capt Hickey is not Rad
zeal? There's the point. In the elec-
ton in this county, to which the Gov>
ernor refers, the candidates were all Rad
ical and hence his desire to shift the re-
sponsibility of interference with the re-
suit upon the courts. He has shown a
readiness to interfere where the success
full aspirant is a political opponent, not
withstanding he may have previously ap-
pointed him to Office, but he has no
stomach for such work as between Radi-
