MAyoRALTY OF NEW ORLEANS
City Hall, May H. 1870.
mo. S5-Administration Series.
WHEREAS, The city of New Orleans is be-
coming involved in litigation with several
| OF the railroad companies coming within the
limits of the city with their several lines of
roads, and whereas several of such com.
panies are also becoming involved with each
ether in litigation, all growing out of con-
ficting views and conflicting interests in
relation to the claiming and occupancy of
certain grounds by such several roads.
And whereas, Such strife, if allowed to
continue, will disturb the harmony of feeling
and damage the prosperity of both the city
and the railroad companies.
And whereas, There should be the highest
reciprocity between the city and the roads,
each needing each other, the prosperity of
either contributing directly to the prosperity
of the other.
Aud whereas, This Council is not insensible
to the great importance of railroad commerce
to our city, nor is it unmindful of the city's
duty to afford every facility she can to rail
road enterprises consistent with the foster
ing care she owes to other enterprises and
interests;
And whereas, 1t is with deep concern and
regret that we note the fact that two rail.
road companies have laid the lines of their
roads upon the entire length Of the active
part Of our levee, thereby greatly interior
ing with and damaging our noble river and
ocean commerce, so great source of
wealth, and of which our city is justly so
proud.
And whereas, In the Judgment of this
Council an amicable adjustment of this
whole question of locating the several lines
of railroads within our city may be made
mutually beneficial by the adoption of lines
of approach by the Pontchartrain Railroad
Company, the New Orleans, Mobile and
Chattanooga Railroad Company and the
New Orleans, Jackson and Great Northern
Railroad Company in the rear of the city,
to point say in the vicinity of the New
Basin, thence coming to the front, on the
bank of the river on one common line;
therefore be it
RESOLVED, That a committee of two mem.
bers of this Council. with the Mayor, are
hereby charged with the consideration of
the matters above mentioned, and are au-
thorized to confer with the representatives
of the railroad companies, with view of an
adjustment that will subserve the interests
of the public.

Administration of General Grant, while
the chief spokesman at Bangor, an ap.
pointee of Gov. Chamberlain, exhausted
his idea of political and party eulogy by
Offering to produce statement, possibly
a certificate, from the Chairman of the
Democratic State Committee to the effect
that Gov. Chamberlain had never confer
red NTH him about selling out the Repub
lcan party or running in opposition to it.
In Kennebec we have supported Gen.
Chamberlain for Governor in convention
and election, four times, always with cor
dality and we think with some influence.
But we supported him as a Republican.
To unite with his senatorial supporters we
are invited simply to coalition of small
band of discontinued Republicans with
scheming Democrats. Under such cir
lain is the defeat of the Republican party,
known to be such and designed 10 be such.
Hence we oppose it When Gen. Cham
berlain won his honors on the field he
wore the true blue uniform. His triumphs
in his Gubernatorial campaigns have been
won with the same color When he dons
the grey in politics he can no more hope
to retain the support he has hitherto en-
joycd than he could have hoped to lead the
goth Maine in a Confederate Uniform.
And especially will he fail when he under
takes to combine the colors. They can't
be mixed in harmony They are dis
tinct palpable, striking, and can be rec
ognized at any distance, and under any
concealment The effort to unite them as
in Portland, with one leg blue and the
other leg grey, has produced uniform
or rather duoform, in which the straight
forward and honest Republicans of Maine
will not consent to clothe themselves. To
march to Republican victory in such
dress, or rather in such a disguise, is po-
litical impossibility

COMPLETE RETURNS.

We give in this issue the complete re-
turns of the State, with few unimportant
exceptions. They are gathered from the
official records and carefully copied. The
result is more favorable to the republican
ticket than the most sanguine anticipated.
Our figures were the highest in the State
ON the night of the election, and Perham's
majority has outrun even them. in brief
the result is AS follows:
Perham's vote 54,02l
Roberts 43,iIo
Total vote. 99,227
Perham's majority, $3.50
The total vote last year was but 93,S5o
and Chamberlain's majority was only T.
9S2.
But the vote for Perham does not chow
the full strength of the republican vote
cast. In some localities he runs behind
his ticket. This was effected by the Rob
erts-Chamberlain combination as fore
Swallowed before election in some of the
papers favorable to the movement. tits so
in Oxford county, where Perham loses some
$50 votes, and where there is not shadow
of pretence for attributing the loss to any
other cause Mr.. Perham's popularity in
his native county is beyond dispute, and
the only cause for surprise at the result
is that with combination of. SO dangerous
a character established in all the towns
around him where it was possible to make
it operate his vote was not reduced more.
A correspondent of the Argus stated in
that paper before election that the game of
selling Perham out for Chamberlain repre-
sentativcs in Oxford county would be
played, and for once the Argus told the
truth
With many elements to distract the par
ty, and with downright treachery at work to
advance the Chamberlain interest, we have
won one of the most signal, important and
satisfactory victories ever achieved in q
State election.

It is but the simplest act Of justice to
Mr.. HENRY X. ELLYsoN to say that III the
recent proceedings in this city in Which he
has been prominent he has not, in any
sense, consulted his personal comfort or
ambition. As we know, lie has acted solely
upon sense of public duty. Apart from
that, he would have preferred the upinter-
rupted pursuit of his own private business
and the quiet EN- oy ment Of his domestic
life. But this WAS not to be thought OF
under the circumstances in which he was
placed. The City Council unanimously
confded to him the responsible duties of
Mayor of the city, and upon accepting the
honor, along with the duty, he knew that he
would be recreant to the city and the
State had he not held his position
faithfully, and under the advisement of the
ablest counsel asserted the authority of his
State calmly and stoutly at every turn of
the case in which her rights and very ex-
istence, az it we're, have been denied. As
long as there is a remedy left he will resort
to it, as he conceives himself bound to dc
under the most solemn obligations which
can be imposed upon the citizen.
We say this without his knowledge. But
we say what we know to be true, and what
is due to him. Assurcdly, so much in hi
behalf should not be denied him from any
undue fastidiousness.

COOP ADVICE TO CoLoRED PEOPLE.-The
Cincinnati Commercial, one of the wiscst
and most useful Republican papers in the
Union, gives the following advice to colored
voters in Cincinnati:
"The worst thing the colored men Of this
city could do for themselves next Monday
would he to march to the polls in a mass
and vote the whole Republican ticket. II
they want consideration, they must act like
men of intelligence and indcpcndence-that
is. they must discriminate"
This is whole sermon condensed in q
few lines. Until colored people " discrimi-
nate" it is clear they have no discrimina-
ton; and as long as they 60 like flock OF
sheep (sll one way) they will prove them
selves unworthy to be voters.

oc,,at,on Tn time The whole matter Of the

agitation. In time The whole matter of the
interests of this State may be fairly and
patiently, and we t,ust patriotically, con-
sidered. This State has interests OF the
greatest magnitude. She may become 'ne
vreatest manufacturing State in the Union.
She may have an immense western anu
southern commerce. But if she so goes 10
work to settle her policy in her hour OF
utter prostitution, the peril is great-great
bcvond calculation-indecd, everything
NAV be lost.

The BALLoT.-The General Assembly
should not attempt to require qualifications
in the voters which the Constitution does
not prescribe. That instrument does not
disfrauchisc men who cannot read and
write. Therefore the Legislature should
not require the voters to do what such men
cannot do-that is, write their names on
the backs of their tickets. Besides, the
object of substituting the ballot for the
living voice was to make the act of voting
secret. Let us obey the Constitution in
spirit as well as according to the letter
Of it.
