HTThe authorities at Washington have
appointed one Gibson, a negro preache,
OF Louisville, as mail agent on the Leb.

Sun very pertinehtly asks: Could no

is an insult TO the whites in the ilrst

It Was done for political effect. The

asks an increase of salary to barely
enable him to live. 1t will be remem-
bered that last Fall bill was intro
duced into Congress giving clerks in
the Departments 20 per cent extra
on their salaries, which did not bring
their salaries up to what it was be-
fore the war. Gen. Grant approved
it, but at the bidding of that imprac-
ticable old ass, Horace Greeley, he
withdrew his approval and defeated
the bill. It was only few days af-
forwards when this same Grant gave
the benefit of his influence and let
ter to Congress advising that 33 per
cent additional be given to the Off
GERS of the army, which passed. This
is only sample brick of the Presi-
dents love for the army and his ut
ter contempt for the people, except
they are wealthy and man of means
stands high in the esteem of our
our snob of President. The great
speech of Hon. Daniel w. VOORHEES,,
of Indiana, furnishes food for refec-
ton to the tax payers Of the country.
From the figures presented by Mr..
VOORHEES, the following stupendous
fact is made manifest. Thatth sum
Of 81, $50, 55S, 956, which is now count
ed as part of our Indebtedness, not
one cent, as proven by Mr.. VOORHEES,,
even left the Golfers of the spectators
or found its way into the Treasury of
the United States. The sum total
that the bond-holders did actually
loan the government upon bonds
from 1862 to 1868 was 81, 81, 424,-
238. Thus we find more than one
half of the stupendous debt is o fc-
ton, fraud, cheat, created by un-
justand scandalous legislation. This
expose made plain by facts, figures
and arguments most eloquently set
forth and following right OH the heels
of MIR. Dawes Radical attack on the
administration for extravagace has
created much CONSERVATION among

~ Ames says that he has done his
work in Mississippi SO well that it will
hold good for five years. Mississippi,
he says, is Radical without doubt for
five years to come. The letters with
which he has bound her will hold out
that long, but after that time the party
must take her in hand and reconstruct
her again so as to secure five years
more. Ames himself is Senator for
five years, and when Ames goes out

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

The following resolutions, and a call
for State Convention, are published
by authority of the State Central Com
mittee:
Whereas, there can be no doubt, that
if the party now in power in this State
is permitted to go on in their extraya-
CANT, reckless ard corrupt expenditures
of the resources of Louisiana, and in
passing the infamous acts known as
the election bill, the school bill, the
militia bin the registration bill, the
constabulary bin. and other bills of a
similar nature, the enactment Of which
are obnoxions to our people and
detrimental to the State, that this
State will soon be bankrupt, and the
people deprived OF their dearest rights
as frecmcr and, whereas, the Demo-
cratic party is the only conservative
party tnat has preserved its political
organization throughout the Union,
opposing everywhere and at all times
the radical Republican party and its
destructive policy:
Resolved, By the Democratic State
SOuGlul NOliIllJUCc anu lIlC CltlZcuS
here assembled, that ignoring all past
issues and political differences and
prejudices which have heretofore divi-
ded us on men and on measures, we in
vite all good citizens of Louisiana to
rally around the national Democratic
party, and unite in an unanimous effort
to hurl from power the political adven-
turers and renegades, who have come
down on this State like vultures on
dead carcass, devouring it to the very
bones.
Resolued, That in order to secure the
cooperation of the great mass of the
people in this movement upon the sue
cess Of which the future agricultural.
commercial and financial prosperity of
Louisiana depend, a Democratic State
Convention, composed of delegates from
all the Parishes Of the State, is invited
to assemble in the city of New Orleans,
on the 4th day of March, 1870, to confer
and adopt such measures as
the gravity of the present crisis de-
mands.
RESOLVED, That Democratic meetings
be convened in every Parish of the
State, and in every ward of the city of
New Orleans, to elect delegates to the
said convention, according to the usa-
ges of the Democratic party.

DEATH OF JUDGE BARLOW.

We regret to announce the death o
Judge James H. c. Barlow, at his resi-,
dence in this town on the morning Of
the 4th inst. Judge Barlow was ma
tive of the Parish of Avoyelles, but
grew up from his boyhood in this Par
ish. On attaining his majority he was
admitted to the bar and opened his of
flee in Alexandria with brilliant pros,
poets ofsuccess. With fine talents and
engaging manners, together with ener.
gy and industry in business, he soon
obtained a lucrative business. In the
year 1855 he was elected District At
torney of this Judicial District, and
served four years. He was capable
and efficient officer.
After the reconstruction of Louisiana
Mr.. Barlow, who had become q mem
Der of the Radical party, was elected
Parish Judge of the Parish of Rapides
During the short time he sat on the
bench his failing health interfered very
materially with the discharge of his
duties. We doubt not that in his jul
dicial career he was prompted by de-
sire to do justice to all parties who
happened to come before his Court.
We have known Mr.. Barlow almost
from his boyhood, and are familiar
with his whole private and public life.
He possessed many estimable qualities
of head and heart. Faults he had, it
is true, but they should be buried in
the grave which covers his mortal re-
mains.
Judge Barlow was forty two years of
age at the time of his death. He was
buried with the honors of the Masonic
fraternity, of which he had long been a
member, and was followed to the grave
by a large procession of his friends
and neighbors.

THE SUPREME COURT.

The Senate has finally put a
quietus on the judicial aspirations
of Grants man Hoar. He has been
rejected and condemned to remain
in the "gift enterprise" or else to
retire to private life within the pre-
cincts of the Goldfish State. Mr..
Joseph p. Bradley, Of New Jersey,
has been nominated in his place.
Mr.. Bradley is an old man and
enjoys very fair reputation as a
New Jersey nisi prius lawyer, but
never having held judicial office,
or an office Of any kind, it is begin
ming to be quite pulling ques-
ton why he has been put forward
to run the gauntlet of a Senatorial
scrutiny into his claims for a judg-
ship. Perhaps, by reference to
some of Grants gift subscription
lists, the thing will more fully and
at large appear, as the lawyers say.
AS he lives almost as far out of his
circuit, as Hoar, opposition to his
confirmation has already commenc-
ed, and an outside pressure set on
foot to secure a Southern Judge.
If confirmed he will be the Judge
Of our own circuit. Thus, with the
Supreme Judge from New Jersey
and the circuit Judge from Ohio,
both of whose minds have been
running in the ruts of the common
law all their lives, the civil lawyers
of Louisiana will have an up hill
business in getting an idea of our
jurisprudence into the heads Of our
Carpet-bag Federal judiciary.
1t is understood that the seat on
the bench made vacant by the res
ignation of Judge Grier has been
rendered to Judge William Strong,
of Pennsylvania, and that he will
be confirmed. Judge Strong was
elected to the Supreme bench of
Pennsylvania five or six years ago
as a Democrat, but soon afterwards
joined the Republican party and
resigned. He has a good reputa-
ton for legal learning and integri-
ty OF character.
Ten years ago Mr.. Seward, smart
ing with the rest of his party I'M
der the bred Scott decision, an
nounced the intention of the party
to remodel the Supreme Court.
His object has been accomplished.
There is not a single Judge on the
bench who resides in Southern
State, and every Judge but two is
a Radical bent on the propagation
Of Radical principles. The indie
pendence of the Court, as known
in the days of Marshall and fancy,
is gone. The Judges decide politi-
cal questions in accordance with
5he wishes of a Radical President.
md at the dictation of a Radical
Congress. A Court which was once
;he pride Of the nation has fallen
beneath contempt. Gould any
hing more clearly demonstrate the
downward tendency Of the Repub-
ic?
