a RADICAL EplToR on CARPET BAG
GERs.-Thc editor of the Chicago
Tribune, the leading radical paper OF
that city and the Northwest, is now
in Louisiana, and in writing to his
paper, gives the opinion of the carpet
baggcrs from the North, who infest
the South as the locusts did Egypt,
dcvouring everything they find:
"They lex rebels) entertain an ir.
revocable animosity against carpet
bag office seekers, and | really cannot
blame them, for it is deplorable fact
that q very large majority of these
gentry are seamps and thieves; rot
ten driftwood who have been aoatctl
down the Mississippi, aud squatted on
the offices. They bring disgrace on
the party to which they profess to be-
long. They possess as keen scent
and as ravenous an appetite for plum
der as the vultures which fill the air
have for putrid carcasses. The diff
ference between these birds of prey is
that the formerfeeds on the substance
of living men, while the latter eontert
themselves with the careasses of dead
animals. It would be safe to enter
the louisiana ca.pet-baggers for pill
fering, speculating and scoundrelism,
in connection with any Of the trade
in any part of the South"

TRATaExG THE GRAPE VINE.

The following tribute to the local pa
per, from the Chicago RepaJlicaa, con-
tains 50 much truth that we transfer it to
our columns and commend It 10 IEU caFss-
ful consideration of our business men and
those interceted in our city:
"What tells us so readily the standard
of town or city as the appearance of It's
paper ]? And its youth or age can as well
be defined by the observing as By the per-
soual notice. The enterprise of its citi-
zens is depicted by its advertisements,
their liberality by the looks of the paper.
Some papers show good, solid, healthy
foundation, plcthoric purses, and a we'll
to do appearance generally; others show
4 striving to contend with the grasping
thousands around them, trying hard to
wrench out an existence from the close
listed community around them. An oc-
casional metoric display in its columns of
telegraphic or local, OF of editorials. shows
what it can do If it had the means, but
cannot continue in the expensive work
until support comes, which ought to be
readily granted. \ newspaper is like a
church it wants fostering at the early
commencement, and for few years
then, as general thing, it can walk alone,
and reflect credit upon its location. Take
your home paper, it gives you more news
OF immediate interest than the New York
or other papers 1t talks for you when
other localities belle you; it stands up
for your rights; Yen always have acham-
pion in your home paper; and those who
stand up for you should certainly be we'll
sustained. Iour interests arc kindred
and equal, you must stand or fall together.
Therefore it is your interest TO support
your home paper, not grudgingly, but in
liberal spirit, rs a pleasure, not as disa-
greeable duty, but as an investment that
will amply pay the expenditure.
