New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1870-08-14

A fact was announced in the State con
vention on Tuesday which was considered
somewhat singular at the time. In speak
ing Of the proposed amendments to the con
stitution, which we publish in another col
umn, member remarked that the Senator
from jefferson parish was the only man
who voted against the proposition, and
that when Lieutenant Governor Dunn hesl-
tatcd and remarked that he waited for the
Senator to change his vote, Todd replied
that he had been elected by the negroes,
and he had promised to them that he would
not vote to change the constitution except
at their suggestion, and he proposed to
keep his promise.
And this brings us to the consideration OF
Senator Todd's general record as Republl-
can. 1t is to be found in the proceedings
of the Legislature, that wherever measure
was proposed for the benefit OF the party,
and not in conflict with the interests OF the
State, the Senator's name is on the right
side. His name was never associated with
any of the jobs which were advanced IN
that body, and his position as frank and
outspoken advocate of Republican prlnc1-
pies was always well understood and fully
acknowledged on both sides of the cham,
bers. As Mr. TODD is spoken of for re-elee'
tion, and as we know these facts, it is but
lust to put them before his constituents
Reliable men are not SO easy to be found
and it is but Justice that when a public
servant does do his duty that his employers
should know and appreciate it-Louisia'eo
State .SeUister.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1870-08-14

A certain number Of men being assigned to
a certain duty, the same number continues
long after the occasion has enlarged. This
would be more particularly the case where
offenses against law were of the sneak
species, and unaccompanied by violence, as
is the case with levee night stealing. It is
only where crime is attended by violence
and danger, that the necessity for an in
crease Of force is more Immediately per-
ceived. 1t is, therefore, to the credit OF the
police authorities that the force on the levee
is increased to such an extent that the mer.
camille community may feel more secure
from depradations than in former times:
That Captain Cambias will make the best
use of the additional men under his com
mand for the protection and safeguard OF
property on the levee, may be judged from
what he has done heretofore with insufficient
means.
The official report Of river precinct No.
for the period commencing November z,
1863, and ending on July l, 1870, shows that
during that time there have been arrested
four hundred and fifty-nine males and nine
teen females, being four hundred and seven
ty-e:ght levee thieves The property recov-
cred during the period covered by this re,
port amounts in value to seven thousand
nine hundred and ten dollars. The greater
portion of the above property was recap
tured from thieves, but there was a consid-
cradle portion, also, picked up afloat or
adrift in the river during the night; SO that
the usefulness of the river police extends
beyond dealing merely with thieves.
The'police authorities appear to be conf
dent that the energy and skill of Captain
Cambias, now that he has more extended
means to work with, will hereafter preclude
all reasonable complaint respecting stealing
! on the levee. -....-.
