Vox PoPUn. Olivier, in the debate in
the French Legislative Chamber on the ar
raignment of Rochefort, fell back on the
people for support. He declared that the
Imperial Government did not dread revolu-
ton, and that it had other cause for its sense
of security than was afforded by the possess
sion of loyal, faithful and courageous army
the Irresistible moral strength which is
impaired by the assent of the nation" This
sounds remarkably we'll, or rather would so
sound, if France had heard these words for
the first time on this occasion. But it be-
comes very interesting question as to
whether the loyalty, faith and courage of the
hundred thousand armed men who were held
in readiness to pounce upon Paris on the day
of Victor Noir's funeral were inspired by the
moderation of the masses, or whether the
moderation of the masses was not inspired
by the loyalty, faith and courage of the hun
dred thousand armed men. "The assent of
the nation" in the United States has one
meaning, and in France it has another Here
the words will bear a literal Interpretation,
and no tyranny or iniquity is endured unless
the people either prefer to endure it or are
too apathetic to overturn it. But in France
so many appliances in the shape of legions
of loyal, faithful and courageous armed men
are brought to bear upon the expression of
the popular will, that o minister merely stul-
titles himself by rolling the words under his
tonoua t.H

The PUBLIC PRINTING SwINDLR.-One of
the strongest arguments in favor of the abo
lition of the franking privilege is the i'm
mense saving to the people which will result
in the matter of public printing. When
members can no longer scatter tons of public
documents through the mails without expense
to themselves or the unfortunate persons to
whom they are directed, they will not be as
enthusiastic as they now are in ordering them
to be printed at the expense of the people,
especially as the Government has its own
printing Office, and no favored contractor is to
be benefited by the reckless destruction of
good white paper. Heretofore the Govern
ment printing Office, with all its enormous
facilities, has been SO overcrowded with work
that no document has been ready for distri-
button until after the lapse of so many
months that what little value it would have
possessed if given to the public at an early
day has been destroyed by the delay. Thisis
another and powerful argument in favor of a
reform in the matter of the public printing
But the recent action of the Senate on the
bill abolishing the franking privilege which
passed the House is interpreted by the friends
of the measure as diminishing its chances of
becoming law, and it therefore becomes the
duty of such members of both houses of Con-
gress as are in favor of retrenchment in the
printing item to urge the speedy passage of a
bill with that specific object. Such bill has
been presented by Mr.. Anthony in the Senate,
and he should without unnecessary delay
fulfil his pledge to call it up and urge its
enactment at an early day.

DRAKE is now candidate for the seat on
the bench of the Supreme Court of the United
States made vacant by the death of Associate
Justice Wayne of Georgia. The circuit to
which the new justice will have to be allotted
comprises the States of Georgia, Florida,
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas.
Missouri, whence Drake halls, and which he
now represents in the Senate, is comprised in
another circuit, and the objection which was
partially responsible for the rejection of
Attorney General Hoar's nomination to the
same position applies with equal weight to the
case of Drake But there is still more
potent objection than that of mere locality.
Drake has shown himself to be in favor of
practically abolisling the highest judicial tri-
bunal of the country, and for this reason, if
for no other, his name should not be seriously
mentioned in connection with a membership
of it. He is radical Republican in politics,
which is all very well as far as reconstruction
and a few other matters are concerned; but,
like a good many radical Republicans who
are very great as mere politicians, but quite
insignificant as statesmen, he does not appear
to be aware that radicalism has any limits
whatever. The last man in the nation to be
placed on the bench of the Supreme Court is
the great Missouri Drake. If the Fifth Cir
Quit is SO meagrely supplied with loyal men
Of commanding legal talent and requirements
that it is necessary to go outside of tin filing
the vacancy, the Senate had better reconsider
its adverse action on the nomination of
Attorney General Hoar. The latter may be
worse than an indefinite vacancy, but he
would assuredly be better than Drake.

WONAS.-A pretty woman is one Of the in

path Is one Of delicious roses, perfume and

and choice calico, and good principles. Men
stand up before her as so many admiration
points, TO melt in cream and then butter. Ecr
words foA, around the car like music, birds
Of Paradise, perfumes of Sabbath bells. With
out her. society would lose its truest attraction,
the church its finest reliance, and young men

find the virtuons woman you find fireside bo-

hearts, music, light and modern institutions
generally. She is the flour of humanity, and
her aspiration is the breath Of heayen.

The New SLEEPING CARs.-Five new
sleeping cars have been completed by the
Crescent City Sleeping Car Company, and
will be speedily placed on the New Orleans,
Jackson and Great Northern Railway, to be
used on the route through to Louisville.
One OF these cars, the "City of New Orleans"
is now on the track, and will make short
excursion this morning to test its qualities.
This sleeping car is model for beauty of
finish and for convenience. In the day. time
it is splendid drawing-room, for by an in ,
genious continuance the berths are slowed
completely out of sight. In every other re-.
spect the utmost mechanical ingenuity has
been exercised to make these cars unsur-
passable. Except for the rapid motion over
the rails. passengers might fancy themselves
in the parlor of a frst-class hotel, where
each might stake his ease in his inn.n

JUDGE COOLEY'S LATE DECIsION


EDITOR REPUBLICAN,: The extensive publ
city given by your journal to the late de.
cisions of Judge Cooley in the cases of Car.
reau and Killeen, two notorious vagrants
Zone convicted felon), sent by me to the
City Workhouse, under the act Of 1870, and
the personal and ungenerous attack made
therein against my conduct as Recorder
an attack securely made, however, under
judicial covert-require at my hands few
words of explanation.
The public are aware that for years past
this city has been infected with class of
outlaws and dangerous characters, that are
not only daily leaving in their passage dark
traces of their misdeeds and felony, but
have invariably baffied the efforts
of justice. Robbery follows robbery,
burglary follows burglary. and citizens
returning from their labor or pleasures are
hardly safe at night from the grasp of the
prowling "garotter." These facts are so
patent, that this outraged community have
frequently asked how it was that the we'll
known perpetrators of these mlsdeeds could
be allowed to evade swift punishment. Let
the history OF the past answer. Have not
straw bail, money and, perhaps, the assist
ance of complainant funciiOnaries proven
the resistless auxiliaries against all the
efforts of the police? To stem this disgrace
fui state Of things I saw NO other remedy
than to strictly apply the law as writ
ten in the statute book. and to leave its
constitutional interpretation to the only
court whose decision upon the point
is final-''the Supreme Court" Though a
''petty Recorder" and not grown into the
swollen and pulled up proportions of Sixth
District Court Judge, my conscience tells
me that I have acted as an honest man and
magistrate, and that l will safely outlive
the vaporings of one who secured behind
his ermine, would fain cast dishonor upon
my name.
If Judge Cooley has succeeded. in THE in
stance, in raising his name high in the es-
timation of Migrants and midnight providers.
l have the satisfaction of knowing that l
have acquired the sympathies and well
wishes OF honest people and of an indig
nant community.
Let the citizens of New Orleans decide
between US.
Very respectfully.

Recorder Second District.

ALMOST LOsT.-An individual wha by
some mistake managed to empty too many
glasses of liquor into his innards, found his
way to commodious cell in the first pre-.
cinct station OF Friday night. After sleep,
the gentleman gave a note to Sergeant
Flanagan to carry to one of his friends
whom he wished to bond him out. The
note was written on the back of State
warran. for $500, and by the merest acct
dent in the world it was not destroyed be-
fore its value had been ascertained. The
owner, yesterday, had no idea of what had
become of his warrant, and would have been
minus its value but for the honesty of the
sergeant.
