CARpET-BAGGERs Ar A DISCOUNT. -
Joseph Medell, the editor of the Obi.
cago Tribune, who is now in Louisiana
writes back that tho people hayec good
reason to sloathe those spurious emi-
grants dubbed carpet-baggers. He

Gin regard to negro office holding,
the ,ex-rebels' are more sensitive than,
about ncgroo voting; still, they de-
clare that they prefer negro oreoles to
hold office rather than rpet-baggers.
They entertain an irrevooable animos.
ityn toward oarpet-bag offioe-s seekers,
and really cannot, blame them, for
it is a ,deplorablo fact that q very large
majority of these, gentry arc soamps
and thieves---rotton driftwood, who
have beon foated down the Mississip-
pi, and squatted on tho Offices. They,
bring disgrace on the party to which
they profess to belong. They possess
as keon u scent and as rayenous. m
appetite for plumber as the. vultures
who fill the air have for putrid caroas-,
iscs. The difference between those
birds of prey is that tho former feast
on the substance of living mon, while
tho latter content themselves with the
carcasses of dead animals. 1t would
be safe to enter the Louisiana carpet-
baggers for pilfering, speculating and
sooundrelism, in competition with any
Of tho tribo in any other part of tho
South" .., ,.,,..., g.,5
a STRA%GE ABANDoNriENT.-The
abandonment Of the negro population
by Greedy in the hour Of triumph
with two foreign missions, each to q
oolored man, from General Grant,
Greely has not word to say Of those
appointments. He is disgusted. He
was after e mission himself, and the
fact that he is put in the background
while couple of .niggors arc brought
into tho foreground has completely
taken the conceit and the niger phi
lanthropby out of poor Greedy Grant
has. given him too much of the nigger,
and we SEQ that in the shallow hu-
manltariah's potty disappointments
his negro philanthropy and philosophy
and negro equality are all cant, clap.
trap, bosh, trash, humbug, gammon
and green cheese. Tho rising ne
groes, therefore, would serve him right
to cut, him, snub him, lecture him and
whistle him down tho wind. 's'''' i
