HERALD SPECIAL.

BORDEAUX, Dec. IA correspondent
interviewed Chadourdy, the French Min
lister of Foreign Affairs, who, though try
ing to make peace, said he thought peace
was still distant as, to accept Prussian
terms would reduce France to third
rate power. There is scarcely man in
France, rich or poor, who il willing to
allow the Government to give up terrific
ry. Arms are plenty. We have offers
of more than we can use from England
alone.
Three months ago it was difficult to
excite the patriotism of the people-now
the only trouble is to get them to be
patient. France is now struggling for
existence. If she is crushed, England
will feel the loss moro than any other
country. England cannot dream OF the
consequence if she should allow France
to be exterminGted. Russia will then dc
what she pleases in the east and Prussia
in the west. England without . single
ally, will cease to belong to the family O
European nations, and will be reduced X
q third rate power.
! Chadourly then spoke in terms 0

Italy and intipated that a day OF reckon

NEW RACE IN AFRICA.

Recent travellers in southwestern'AfI-
ca have discovered new race, called the
Boas, apparently Of Asatic origin. They
are Of red, rather than black complex
ion with curly hair, never woolly Of
regular features and fine forms. They
are fur more civilized than most of tho
African races, have graded govern
ment, good roads and vigilant pohca
Travellers and hunters are Hospitality 10
ceived, and can pass through the king
dom without difficulty, but foreign trn-
ders must have the endorsement Of res
pectable citizen before they can reside in
tho country. They have n religion re-
sembling SO closely the Parsee fifth, q
to leave no doubt of its Parsee origin.
They worship no idols, but believe in ono
supreme Being, omniscient and omnipre-
sent, and worship him in symbols Of fire.
and sun. Like the ancient Persians, they
keep the sacred fire burning continually
on the altar. They believe also in a power
full evil spirit, like Ahrim.an, who is al
ways plotting mischief, but is held in
subordination to the supreme Being, and
compelled in the end to work ont good.
They are said to be honest, industrious,
temperate people, far moro resardful OF
their word, and maintaining u higher
morality than most Of the African races
The traveller, Anderson, was so pleased
with them and their country, that no

large scale, but unfortunately soon died

p~We transfer to onr columns some
very timely remarks of our cotem Of the
Lafourche Repuuican, on the recent APP
pointment by Gov. War,noth Of Judge
FOR Ascension Parish.
To our mind it appears that the old in
cumbent Of the Office is entitled by every
consideration to retain the position I'M
til lis successor is e,ectedsand qualified.

elected, from the fact that he was not
eligible for election, not being citizen
Of the State He could not resign the
OTTO, becaus. he mll not pos ably have
assumed it. and thcrc!o-c the thingresolves
itself into holding over By the old Judge
in consequence Of there being no eietio'
at the proper time
We hope that under any circumstance
the Governors interference win be bu
temporary and that be win speeiil,
afford the people Of Lsfourche the op
portunity Of s,ccting . man Of Their
choice. We csn scarcely Imagine tina
the Executive vii, MD i, the effort to de
fraud the citizens Of Lafourche out o

Hon. Mortimer Carr will be reelected
speaker of the House of Representatives
for several good reasons, among which
we may be justified in mentioning the
following
First He is fully competent.
Second He is already conversant with
the duties of tho position.
Third He is deserving OF the honor
by reason OF prolonged usefulness as q
Republican.
Fourth His sympathy with the Radi-
cal principles Of the Republican party IL
attested by an indisputable record
Fifth He favors free schools on the
basis of the Constitution and laws Of the
State.
Sixth He is in possession OF an
ample fortune, and is therefore not likely
to be influenced by offers Of brides

the special interest, not wholly for the
interest of the republican party but IL
the special. interests of particular par
ties, regardless Of their peculiar position

sions, relating to the reasons why Nj
Carr should, or will be reelected again

tives. And in order that we may be full
understood, we shall answer each reason
in detail
To the first and second reasons "
shall give our hearty assent for it Is no
on these points that any opposition ca
be made against him.

differ with Mr.. Conway. This reason i'm
plies an unfiinching, unwawering usef n
ness to the party and some thing ths
looms up above the common level
