HOW IS THIS?

Now that the chairman of the Demo-
cratic Committee has announced that so
far as the action and authority of the COM
mittee is concerned" colored men will be
admitted as members Of the Democratic
party, as delegates to the Democratic con-
vention and - to a participation in public
affairs, there does not appear to be any
reason why the hundreds Of timid men
should be any longer kept out Of the Re-
publican ranks by the threats and taunts
Of the Democratic party, because of the
odium and disgrace they would bring
upon themselves by belonging to or work
ing with "a niger party" Since the
Democracy is to be ''niggerised' what will
the highly sensitive Democrats do about
it?
On the other hand, Mr.. Brown and his
friends ought to feel highly complimented,
when he is told that the Democratic Com
mittee avail themselves Of the occasion to
re-affirm their deep sense Of the natural
sympathy and identities of interest exist
ing between the white and colored people
of the State
Perhaps Mr. Brown and some Of his
friends have lively recollection Of 1.-the
deep sense of the natural sympathy exist
ing between the leaders of the Democratic
party in 1868, ''and the colored people of
the State"

What contrast between the peaceful,
quiet little republic of Switzerland, at
the present time, and the stormy, war
ridden, bayonet-oppressed monarchies
of France and Prussia, neighb6ring. In
the latter soldiers swarm everywhere, fill
ing the streets of village and city; posted
in every public square and at
every corner Of Paris and other
cities Gin a state of siege, where every
man who is suspected, or feared, or dis
liked is arrested and imprisoned at
pleasure In the fields, women, prema-
turely Old with labor, WELD the hoe and the
mattock, and the younger and stronger Of
their sex swing the scythe. Many may
be seen, says a writer on the spot, ''trund-
ling loaded wheelbarrows, and carrying
panniers like asses, to earn the taxes
which are extorted to support the men
who stalk about in uniform" But in the
little republic, you are free from the per-
petual sight Of military uniform, and can
breathe freely. Nobody asks for your
passports; nobody requires you to submit
your baggage to search. Fire Ia Repu-

Judgment when the Governor of the State
of Louisiana is the party in controversy.
Whatever we may believe as to the merits
of political parties, and however much
we may differ as to measures of policy, no
honest man can lay his hand upon his
heart and periodically declare that he
would prefer to believe the chief execu-
tive officer of his own State corrupt rather
than to believe him honest. Let US, at
least, admit to ourselves and to one
another, that if the Governor can be eX-
onerated from the. charges that have
been made against him, it would
be victory for him and q
blessing to the State. In all honesty
and charity We submit if this is not a
reasonable proposition; for five can con-
tent ourselves that the custodian of SO
much power is honest, it will at least sat
isfy us that though our ideas may be car
ried out in politics, our taxes are not paid
into irresponsible keeping.
The charges that have been uttered and
repeated with SO much industry in Lou
isiana, and which have been reproduced
in New York, after they had been exposed
and defeated at home, are taken up and
again disposed Of in regular order by the
letter written for the New York Sum-
which We print this morning
The facts are given, the documents
produced, and the records referred
to. There is not a link in the
chain left out. Personal and official his
tory is given with such particularly of
detail that the unbelever must be forced
to deny the existence Of documents which
are within his reach, or he must admit that
he fails to accept because he does not de-
sire to be convinced of the truth.
We commend this answer to the atten-
ton Of the New York S,n, and if it
shines for ALL let its light be cast in
such way to clear up the scandal which
it assisted to circulate so widely. Here is
an instance of light equal to noon day,
and it is due to the State that has been
abused as much as the gentleman who has
been maligned that it should be seen of
all men,

TIE NOON DAY SUN.

4 scandalous and malicious communi-
cation appeared in the New York Sun, Of
recent date, and was reprinted in New
Orleans about the time of the assembling
of the Republican State Convention. 1t
was written for sale, and it was printed
because the sensational public always
buy what is intoxicating to the senses,
whether it be bad whisky or deplorable
scandal. The case did not demand imme-
date attention, and a refutation Of its
malignant ibels was, therefore, deferred
until a full and proper relation of the
matters therein clouded over with viliica-
ton and Misrepresentation could be laid
before the public.
The response is now ready and is to be
found printed in another portion of this
days REPUBLICAN. The reader who has
waded Though two columns of falsehood,
will certainly not do the question and his
own honesty such violence as to decline
giving the defense that patient inyestiga-
ton which is necessary to make up a

AT OLD TRICKS AGAIN.

The New York World is just now win
ming the same kind of fights for Bonaparte
that it used to win for jefferson Davis,
and is as much averse to the German Con-
federation as it was in favor of the South
ern Confederacy. If the fathom of its
ability is no better in the present war
than it was in the former, Bonaparte
might just as well be hunting his way out.

1.-The poor ye have always with you"
1t seems to be consolation with our
friends Of the opposition, that the public
school system is passing away, and that
the justice Of Republican institutions will
be defeated by the substitution Of privi-
legged for universal education. PAY or
play" is the newest phase of the war for
caste and if the parent can not take the
money out Of his pocket to keep his son
out Of the street, let the lad stay there
and grow ike the weeds that breed ma
leria and death. The poor we have always
with US, and it is likely they will be as
ignorant as they are beggarly, if the new
programme is successful.

It is because the Germans are q people
Of sentiment that they will not do to tie
to. They act their convictions and are rare
ly led away by influences foreign tothese.
Being universally thoughtful they are dis
Greet, industrious, peaceful, honest and
without concerted measures they are apt to
go ,one way on any question that may
arise, social Or political, local or national.
They do not rush to sustain any question,
or measure, or man with sudden and in
considerate zeal, as their Irish fellow-citi-
zens are apt to do, but earnestly and we'll
timed they 60 to the support of the true
cause and become adherents that NAV be
trusted alike in victory and defeat. While
their action is more isolated Or individual
than that of some other classes, their una
nimity is more sure, having intelligence
for its source, and not the adhesiveness of
a common ignorance, nor the clanishness
of q common avarice.
The German element in every commu-
nifty is conspicuous for moderation, dis
cernment and diligence. It makes no
terms with Incidence or fraud, and never
compromises its safety OF integrity. When
the late war arose it cast its strength
firmly and without hesitation on the side
Of Union; and when by the madness
Of revolt everywhere in the unhappy
South, the breach was widened and the
emancipation question was brought into
the measurement of the strife, the Ger
mans almost as one man declared fcf free

line of its road. In this little maneuver,
Jim Fisk is putting very small foot
in an exceedingly big trap, and he will
find it about as troublesome, if Greedy is
not too old to be spunky, as a tin kettle

railroad happens to be a common carrier,
and is expressly denied the right to use
its power against any business which offers
to pay its regular fare and freights. We
