POLITICAL.


An auxiliary Phil Sheridan Irish Repub-
lcan Club was organized in the Tenth Ward
last Wednesday night, and officers elected.
The meeting was called to order by General
d. I. Kirby, who, after he Mad explained
the object for which the meeting had been
convened, moved that MIR. Thomas In
graham be made temporary chairman, and
that Captain Maroney act as temporary
secretary. The meeting then proceeded to
permanent organization by the election of
officers.
For president, General Kirby was nomi
mated, and respectfully declined in favor of
some more suitable person. Captain Ma
roney insisted upon having General Kirby
elected president of the club, as he was
quite sure he could accomplish more than
almost any other man in making it com
plete success. General Kirby finally con-
sented to serve, and was unanimously
elected president. Ferdinand d. Earhart
and William Terrell were elected vice-prcsi-
dents and Captain Maroney secretary.
Captain lngraham was rendered a vote of
thanks for his services as temporary chair

Wendell PhilliDs.

Boston, September 12.-Wendell Phillips
accepts the labor reform nomination fol-
governor in the following letter. Il have
no wish to be Governor of Massachusetts.
and fiattering as is this confidence, l
thoroughly dislike to have my name drawn
into party politics, for belong to no polit-
zeal party. But see nothing in your plat
form from which L dissent, and the struggle
that underlies your movement has my
fullest and heartiest sympathy. Capital
and labor are partners, not enemies they
stand face to face in order to bring about a
fair division of the common profit am
convinced that hitherto legislation has
leaned too much, leaned most unfairly to
the side OF capital. Hereafter we should be
impartial. The law should do all
it can to give the masses more
leisure, q more complete education better
opportunities, and q fair shar1 of profits 1t
is a shame to our christiavieS and our civil
lization for our social system to provide and
expect that one man at seventy years of age
should be lord of many thousands of dol
lars, while hundreds OF other men who have
portunities lean on charity for their daily
bread OF course there must be rregulari-
ties; but the best minds and hearts OF the
land should give themselves to the work OF
changing this gross injustice, this appalling
irregularity. / feel sure that the readiest
way to turn public thought and
effort into this channel is for
the working men to organize a
political party. No social question ever gets
fearlessly treated here till we make politics
turn on it. The real American college is
the bailot-box; and on questions like these
political party is the surest and readest,
If not the only way, to stir up discussion
and secure Improvement. If my name will
strengthen your movement you are welcome
to it. Allow me to add to those working
for large vote, if we fail we should not he
discouraged by a small one. Last wears
experience shows your strength and the
auti-slavery movement proves how quietly
a correct principle wins the assent Of earn
est men. Work for it.
Yours truly,
WENDELL PHILLIPS.

DEMOCRATIC PARISH CONVENTION.

The adjourned meeting of the parish nom
mating convention of the Democratic party
was held last evening at the National Hall
Poydras street.
The delegates were in full attendance and
as noisy as concert of steam engine
whistles. There was very little fun, and nc
colored men present; a rather remarkable
feature in party that has adopted colored
suffrage as an essential plank in its platform
The president, E. Howard McCaleb
called the convention to order, the secre-
tary, Mr.. St. Leon Dupeiere, being at his
post.
The beginning Of the proceedings bore a
strong resemblance to the overture iii
Haydn's oratorio of the Creation, being
highly suggestive of Chaos. Gradually the
strong lungs and heavy gavel of the presi
dent made things subside into something
like order, and then the nominations were
made, as follows:
For Senators, First Senatorial District
Walter H. Rogers, James II. Wingfeld.
Second District-George Cronan.
Third District, comprising Seventh, Eighth
and Ninth Wards, together with the parish
of st. Bernard-M Carroll
The following nominations were made for
the House of Representatives:
First Ward-V. j. ROzier. Sam Boyd.
Second Ward-W. II. Armstrong, A. j.
Fitzpatrick, NJ NJ. Feeny.
The Third Ward have not as yet made any
report.
Fourth Ward named j. W. Donneily and
Henry Audrey, Jr.
The Fifth Ward nanled E. D. Dean and
+. Fuselier
The Sixth Ward reported the nomination
of AnatOle A. Kerr. The Seventh Ward
did not report, and the Eighth Ward nomi-
mated N. A. Llambias.
The Ninth Ward nominated Adolphe Du-
pre-, Jr., and Charles Murray. There were
Twelfth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth and FIT
teenth Wards-the Fifteenth Ward COM
prises the right bank Of the river al
giers).
The nominations for justices of the Peace
and COnstables were as follows:
For First Justice, comprising First and
Second Wards, John w. McPhelan; Con-
stable, Dan Mahoney.
The Third Ward made no nominations.
The Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Wards NOM
mated for Third Justice Paul E. Laresche;
Constable, Leon Bertoli.
The nOn,ination for Fourth Justice of the
Peace was Augustin Viavant: Constable of
Fourth Justices Court, p AdolphelFortier.
For the Sixth Justice and Constable no
nomination was made.
A resolution to ratify the nominations so
far as made, was carried.
Previously to going into the nominations
the convention passed resolution author
izing such wards and districts, as have not
made nominations, to make the same at such
time and place as the delegates might Sc
iect: such nominations to be hereafter re-
ported to the convention for announcement
and approval.
! There being no further business before it,
the convention adjourned sine die.
The reporter of the REPUBLICAN,, who has
attended the Democratic State and parish
conventions held this week desires to record
his sense of the gentlenfanly courtesy which
he experienced, during their various sit
tings, at the hands of political opponents.

How Louisiana Pays its Rewards.

We copy the following from the Louis
vile Commercial Of Monday. promising
that d reward was offered by the Sheriff OF
Caddd without the authority Of the Gov
ernor:
Deprty Sheriff Wright, of Shreveport.
Louis lana, returned from Frankfort Satur-
day W III the necessary papers to take Minor
Hood, the escaped murderer, back to Lo,lisi-
ana. Mr.. Wright. on his arrival here, was
asked by Lieutenant Needy, who arrested
Hood what about the reward?" Mr..
Wright did not know anything about it:
but on looking at the copy of the handful.
he recPilected that the Governor had author
lied a reward of $4,000 TO be offered for the
recovdry of Hood and Gregory. He tele-
graphFd to Governor Narmoth. and re-
ceivee tie following dispatch, dated New
Orleans September 9:
wv w. Wright-No reward was offered
by th1 Governor. Report 10 the Governor
OF 'k1 ntlcky the refusal to deliver the
prison! eI, and get his order.
H. c. WARMOTH.
Governor Of Louisiana
1t 8 ems strange that this dispatch should
be Sc BIT when the printed handbill circu-
lated over the country in October, 1868.
Offering the $1,000 reward. was signed by j.

moth. Governor of Louisiana, / am au-
thorize ed to offer a reward of $1,000 for their
appre tension" referring to Gregory and
HoodJ, or $1,000 for either of them
Sheriff Wright was DESTROYS of giving
the officers who made the arrest fifty dol
lars for their trouble and taking their re-
ceipt. which these gentlemen promptly
refuse to accept. they having already been
at much larger expense since the arrest
was made. 1t looks as if the Governor of
Louisiana was inclined to break his faith in
the matter; if so. it is very petty and I'M
dignified act for an Official to commit Lieu
tenant Needy and Officer oliver are legally
entitled to the reward, and should receive
it without any question. We hope there
may be nothing more than misunder-
standing i'll this matter, which a slight in
vestigation will clear up, and thus leave
the Governor of Louisiana in o more favor
able position than that which he now holds.

A New York special to the st. Louis he

publican says:
|. The bank statement is the chief topic of
conversation in financial circles. The de-
crease in the reserve of the banks, and their
apparently expanded and weak condition
conjoined with the dullness and extraordi-
nary ease in the money market, are unset
Ting to capitalists and money lenders. The
stagnation in trade, and also speculation,
furnish, probably, the solution Of the anon
ally. The increase in specie is caused by
the receipts Of gold from California. and an
amou2t, variously estimated from 100000
to 500, 900, sent to New York by the Cana
dian banks.
