THE CAMPAIGN.

The political campaign is now fully
opened in this State. Both parties have
put their principal candidates in the
field, and it only remains for the people
to decide on which side victory shall
perch. The Democrats will, no doubt,
make strenuous exertions to bring their
candidates in with votes enough to secure
again to that party the high places of
power and emolument The State will
be flooded with political documents,
thrown broadcast over the land. The
usual agencies employed by that party
exaggeration and downright aendacity-
to hoodwink urrefecting and uniformed
voters, as to the real intents of the leaders.
For unless they succeed at the coming
election their existence as party in this
State will be at an end. The next cleo
ton Of importance will take place two
years hence. and that is too long to wait.
We know the old party too well to sup
pose they will disseminate the truth.
That has always been fatal to them. They
can no more stand up in its presence than
the bloom of tropical fruit trees can sur
vive heavy frost. In order, therefore, to
expose and counteract Democratic mis-
representations and arts to deceive, the
Republicans must be alert. The antidote
must everywhere follow the poison, or be
near at hand when wanted. Republican
documents should be freely circulated in
every parish and in every town. If every
voter in the State could be furnished with
a copy of the REPUBLICAN, the result
would be absolutely certain. Wherever
the light Of truth is permitted TO shine,

The Republicans Party.

Senator Wilson, in speech on Friday, in
Philadelphia, said that the Republican party
had made the constitution and laws in har-
mony with the Declaration of Independence
but that it could not live on its record alone.
1t was party of reform, and it had a great
work still to do in reducing debt and taxa
ton. AS to the appointments to Office he
sad, that as whole they had been vastly
superior to their predecessors, and this was
proved IN the management of our Indian
affairs, in the collection OF our revenue, and
in the faithful administration of the laws
especially in the States lately in rebellion.
He added that intelligence from all parts of
the country, North and South, East and
West, indicated that the administrations
spite OF the disappOintments Of some public
men, and of some mistakes--wOuN be sus-
tanned by the people, and that the Repub-
hcans would have a decisive majority in the
next House of Representatives. The large
majority they now have would be dimin-
ished, but the Republicans would have
decisive majority ..l

The German Fair.

The readers Of the REPUBLICAN are re
minded that this evening is the last of the
German Fair, at the Turner Hall, which
has been deiighting snch numbers Of oul
citizens for nearly two weeks.
The closing evening of the fair will ex.
hiblt an unusual amount of attraction
generally, and more particularly the voting
for the American flag, the silver trumpts
and the set Of jewelry. There is no doubt
that these specialities will attract large
assembly. --..
The object of the fair has been stated over
and over again, the relief of the wounded
European soldiers. No one need be told
that an object So meritorious as this should
receive munificent support, even if the
combination Of pleasure with the charity
did not exist to such fascinating extent.
When the result OF the fair is announced,
it will be found, 10 doubt, fully commens,,-
rate with the benevolent spirit that origin
ated the charity, and will be source of
sei1-satisfaction 10 every one in knowing
that he or she had hand in promoting this
sterling scheme Of benevolence.

ON CARoNDELET STREET,

Money seems to be plentier than for
some time past, but rates continue to be
hard upon borrowers. This state of
things can not last forever, and some
knowing ones are predicting easier lines
within short time. ... .-..,
The street afforded no item of particu-
Lar interest yesterday. Navigation con-
inues to receive good deal of attention.
1893 shares changed hands yesterday, at
The following rates: 81, 81, ISL and 100
shares at So; 100 at So 25, and two lots
of 300 each at So So 'o 7at
There was good demand for city seven
per cent bonds, old and new, but holders
were generally unwilling to sell at the
prices offered. At the board 72l was bid
for the new, and during the day lots of
5000 and 5000, brought 724. For.the old
n was bid at the board, but a large
amount sold before the session at TIE.
These figures look more reasonable than
the rate co. reported Wednesday for
$40, 900 old bonds. A small lot of Metro
poitans were sold at 49,, and $500 more
at the same rate. .s
Ship Island has made trifing gain, if
we may judge from a single sale, 300
shares having found purchaser at 321
cents. At the board 80 cents was bid.
Sixteen dollars was bid for Slaughterhouse
at the board, but there were no offers.
Holders seem indisposed to put their
stock upon the market just now. One
hundred shares brought SIG so. Fifty
shares Sugar Shed sold at s25 SO at the
board.

the Brokers Board said about prices last
evening: f- -... .a} e..

The time has, fortunately, passed away
forever when the most timid, time-server
/ need fear being seen with the REPuBL1-
CAN in his hand. Since it became the
acknowledged leading journal in the State,
and the exponent of the policy that is to
control hereafter, it has become the
fashion to consult its columns. It's
readers are, as a rule, far in advance Of
those who depend upon the opposition
papers for their political intelligence and
ideas. The ,bcsetting corse of the State
since its organization has been ignorance.
Those who could not read depended upon
those who could, and many of the
latter preferred to have their politi-
cal d information as it came filtered
through the mouths Of interested parti-
sans. Besides, a free press never
existed here before the war; Throughout ,
the length and breadth of the South it
was impossible to find a journal that
dared to tell the people the truth as it
has appeared in the New Orleans REPuB-
I1cAN, and as our readers viii ever con-
tinue to find it there. And even to this
day the older papers, especially those
which are called Conservative or Demo-
cratic, find it impossible to throw off the
dominion of the former masters of the |
slave, the impudent aristocrats, who were
not content to lord it over the friendless
but must even include the
poor whites whom they arrogantly |
styled the ''mudsills of Southern
society And now that their power has
gone, and the people are secure in the \
government of their own affairs, there will |
be unremitting attempts made to regain
for the Ed-glove gentry at least portion
Of the emoluments, if not the power which
hey lost through their utter selfshness
md folly. The price of liberty is eternal
vigilance, and general diffusion of in
telligence. knowledge is power, when
possessed by an individual or an aggrega-
Jon of people. Therefore, we say let
Every man who can possibly afford it sub
scribe for the REPUBLICAN,. read it care

md our word for it, he viii be better SAT-
SIZED with himself than he will be if he 1
continues to depend upon the crossroads
orator for his information.

We copy this from the Homer Iiad, of
the seventeenth instant:
The editor Of this paper was invited to
defend the principles Of his party before a
Democratic meeting at this place ON last
Saturday, and because he did SO, was
menaced and ins,llted. He defended his
party and maintained Republican principles
in the mildest and most courteous manner;
and vet lie was insulted. The outrage is
mentioned az much in defense OF the masses
Of the Democratic party, as for any other
purpose. The misconduct was the work Of
but two individuals, and was at once
drowned down" by the entire mass OF the
Democracy present. We thus allude to this
thing publicly, not in the way of personal
or partisan complaint, but in behalf of the
entire decent and respectable portion of our
people, irrespective OF party, and TO join
our voice in the unanimous declaration OF
the community that all such disgraceful con-
duet must cease. Our land has long enough
languished and blcd as tie fruits of rowdy-
ism and mobocracy. Let us show TO the
world that we arc worthy of better fate
and higher destiny. Let law and order
and the freedom of speech prevail. that we
may prosper and be respected as q cOmInu-

Diplomacy is working while cities are
being bombarded. And notwithstanding
the false light in which the characters o.
Bismarck and Favre have been pictured
by their enemies on one side and the
other, there is hope that peace, honorable
and just to Prussia and France, may soon
follow their discussions. Jules Favre is
one OF the, most pleasing orators of Eu-
rope. He is the most successful advocate
at the bars Of all the chief cities of France
to-day. That his arguments will be con-
vlncing even to the learned and subtle
Bismarck can not be doubted. Nor will
he advocate anything which will be dis
honoring to his country. yrlr D..
