the bosoms of families who now mourn
their loss; that have been taken from the
fields and workshops; from the field OF
every industrious and profitable pursuit,
and placed in battle-felds and battle array
to see who could destroy the most life and
property in the shortest space OF time. Is
this civilizations Is it progresss Tell us
not of improvements in the art of war. The
science OF war, carried into practical effect,
is science to kill, to slaughter and destroy
by the Wholesale, and no matter how scicn-
tifc a nation may become, in the practice,
that does not render it any the less savage,
Truly we have fallen upon evil times
again if such things can pass without cen
sure; without an effort being made by the
civilized powers of Europe to stay the work
of blood that has already cost SO many hui
man lives and such vast amounts of
treasure.
The loss is not only confined to France
and Prussia-it is loss to the world; and a
loss that must be scnsitively felt by all the
powers of Europe. Let them protest then
in the name OF GOd-of civiliZation-against
TIE further prosecution Of war so disas-
trous and fraught with no good.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

The Brokers Board having adjourned,
and many parties enjoying sincere faith
that it pays to prevent reports Of actual
transactions becoming public, we have
horribly dry task to perform when we un-
dertalze to describe a days operations on
Carondelet street. 4 hundred times have
We written rapturous compliments IL re-
spect Of the good nature Of the brokers
under trying circumstances, and that sort
Of thing won't go down any longer. 1t is
thoroughly played out, and at the best it
never helped us to fatter cur tinanciers,
for they know their failings and manfully
stand up to them. They are queer set,
# we venture to tell the truth about them,
and they pay very little regard to this
article any way. Under the circum-
stances, We deeply regret that we have no
present occasion to pitch into them or
their operations, so as to infuse something
like life into our column.
City securities maintain their recent
elevation. New seven per cent bonds
were in demand, and sold as follows:
ST., 900 at IA; two lots Of $4,000 each at
742; $1,000 and $1,000 at IA; $4,000 and
SlO,O coo at 10. Six thousand dollars old
city seven per cent bonds sold at -; $500
city seven per cent fiscal agency certif-
Gates, July dates, sold at se!, and $4,000
of the same, dated July 16. brought 80,
an enliyening figure; $4,000 of seven-thirty
certificates were disposed of at II.
Beyond this report of the fiourishing
condition of city securities, we have
almost nothing to say about yesterdays
business, for the want Of topics. Five
shares Of Sugar Shed changed hands at
the advanced price Of s26. -Four hun
bred shares of Ship Island brought twenty
five cents per the hundred dollars. One
thousand realized two cents and half
more. Ten shares of Carrollton Railroad
stock sold at s110. Fifty shares of Hi
hernia Bank found purchaser at $56,
first rate show for the new bank.
The Brokers Board meets again Mon
day evening, and there will, undoubtedly,
be an interesting session.

RpRiuniur rO Dissolve.

We Have published several letters from
gentlemen whom the so-called Christian
Republican Association attempted to use to
give Importance to the pretended conven-
ton, said to have been held in the parish of
Jefferson. These gentlemen ministers of
the gospel and others declare that they had
nothing whatever to do with the boiling
clique, and could not have had. being good
and true Republicans, pledged to support
the regular ticket. We now receive the
following from one of the nominees which
will explain itself.
CARRoLLToN, September q, 1870.
To the Christian Republican Association:
Whereas you held your convention i'll
secret session, do not accept of the nom
ination for Sheriff, and as you made one
mistake in the first letter of my name, you,
may make greater one in supporting the
ticket: furthermore, had refused the offer
made to me by j. Fisk, September 81, and
will not permit my name to he used without
my consent so l will decline under that
heading. am, respectfully yours.

SADNESS OF WAR.

Fan is upon us, verging to its centre, and
during this third season Of the year 1870
there has been mighty fall of men engaged
in deadly conflict. Vast armies have been
raised for battle fields where death was
made the reaper, and men were moved
down like grain; while many of those fields
that had been cultivated by peaceful indus
try are teeming with crops that will never
he gathered. because the men who planted
them lie cold in death
The wives and children Of many of them
will look upon these fields and their waving
grain with tender remembrance Of those
whose pride it was to tend them, that plenty
might smile upon their homes: and as the
fruits Of their labor perish for want Of their
hello in harvest time, q feeling Of sadness
will continue to come over those whom war
has cruelty bcrelt Of near and dear ones.
frI,;ts; without those smiling faces it was
their lob 10 greet. The trees that. We're
clothed in living green are changing to the
scar and yellow leaf, ara the leaves are fail
ing fast.
The fields are also changing and their
brightness will be succeeded by d scmbre
appearance, al adding to the deep melan-
cholly of those who by wars dreadful de-
cree are left with vacant places around
their hearth-stones during the long winter
evenings that will succeed the present fall
season, rendered memorable by events I'M
surpassed in history In their magnitude and
effect. if the time taken to accomplish them
be considered.
1t is true an empire has been lost-a SOW
ereien has been driven from his throne
and another sovereign at the head of several
hundred thousand men, is knocking at the
gates of Paris for admission. But what OF
this! This is nothing compared with the
hundreds of thousands Of sovereigns that
have been taken from the fresides Of
Germany and France, never to be re-
placed that have been taken from

people and inform them that I'M
less they forthwith enlist in one
Of the alphabetical atrocities they
will be drafted into the militia. 1t
appears the organization of these militia
companies is not success. The people
have had enough Of that foolishness, and
they are disposed to let guns and sabres
alone for awhile, until they attend to the
recovery of that property which too
prompt use of warlike implements made
wreck Of The community, as
general thing, has gone back
on the militia companies for two very
good and sufficient reasons. First: the
people have had enough of war and IFS
accessories. Second: the drill room Of q
militia company is about as dangerous
and unwholesome place as young man
can trust himself into. The company is
mixed, the language is roug b and proiane
and The temptation to drink Is constant.
At the present time, it is particularly SO.
Members lose time at night, when they
ought to be reading or sparkling the girls,
and they hear many bad things said, and
they see many bad things done, which all
have tendency to shock and undermine
their moral principles. And at last, wheu
trouble comes, they are crowded into pre-
cipitate action, contrary, perhaps, to their
better judgment, by the associations
which are around them. AS this
is Saturday night, we have wor-
ried ourselves rather late into
the night to thread these suggestions on
this string, in order that their SAVIOR
might be pondered over Sunday. Many
of these inspired young men will reject
our advice because they will find it in a
Republican paper; but some Of them will
look back years from now, and say that if
they had followed the suggestions herein
contained, they would have been better
men, and still have known as much about
Hardee's tactics as was becoming to a
quiet and orderly man.
But what We wanted to say, and what
it is not too late to say yet, is that these
young men who do not want to join with
the militia companies, no matter how
many letters Of the alphabet they brazen
on their belts and caps, need not do it.
It is entirely a volunteer affair, just as
joining the opera Jo'Te is, and whoever
does not desire to join a company is as
free to keep out as he is to go il.

THE IALLELUJAH CANDIDATE FOR
PARISH JUDGE.

In the fall of lSCS when civil dudgeon first
ran high, and men fell out with pretty
good knowledge of the reason why, there
lived in small shanty in the negro quarter
of the Miilaudon plantation, Jefferson, right
bank, ian educated man, possessed of a
whisky, soap and candles in small quaint
ties TO the plantation hands, by permission
of the overseer. He was not then known to
be a licensed lawyer" and ex-District At
torney. On the contrary, with spirit OF
rare self-abnegation, he laid claim to no
more extensive knowledge of law than had
been obtained by serving writs as Deputy
Sheriff in California.
One night there was trouble in the camp.
A Democratic self-eonstituted vigilance
committee, composed of three or four turbu-
lent citizens of Gretna, half a dozen soldiers
and a corporal of the nevcr-to-betorgotten
first regiment (absent without leave), piloted
and led by the licensed lawyer and ex-Dis-
,rict Attorney, broke into the quarter and
commenced to search for arms. Under this
pcetext, cabin doors were broken open. old
men, women and children were dragged
out of bed, mattresses were ripped up and
boxes searched, and matters were getting
serious, and bloOdshed was threatened,
when Mr.. Leonard Sewell a gentleman re-
siding on the adjacent property, heard of the
outrage. Alone and unarmed. he APP
peared upon the scene, and by his
manly, intrepid inference, slammed the
soldiers into something like discipline, and
put an end to the spoliation. No arms were
found, except one revolver, which belonged
to the night Waterman, and was returned
to him, but quite a number of old silver
watches, trinkets, and secret boards of
money hidden under beds, and in holes and
corners, disappeared. Another object Of
the raid was also accomplished. Not one of
those negroes dared to vote the Republican
ticket On the third November.
The leader of this gallant band was next
day ordered off the place. His name was
w. II. Chapman, of whom the Christian Re-
publican Committee says:
For Parish Judge We present The name of
William K. Chapman. He is an educated
man. possessed OF n logical. discriminating
mind. and is competent TO discharge the
duties OF that office with fidelity. He is a
licensed lawyer. having practised his pro-
iession for several years. He has been
elected district attorney and filled the
position with credit.
The story. substantially as narrated
above, was told against him at a recent
Republican meeting a, Harvey's Canal.
This probably was why no place was found
for W. K. Chapman on the regular Republ
can ticket. This probably is also why he
among the Christians.

Special Taxes.

1t is not more certain that special taxes
or licenses are abolished after May ], 1879,
than that special taxes which have been
assessed for the current year are required to
be paid. Some Of our citizens seem 70 think
this is not the case, and pay no attention to
the numerous notices sent them from the
collectors office, until at last the collector is
compelled to prosecute them before "a United
proceedings have already been instituted in
a number of cases, and that similar steps
will be taken very soon in regard to every
unpaid special tax on the collectors lists.

4 GOVERNOR BROKE LOOSE.

Governor L. F. Grover, of Oregon, was
unfortunately accommodated with too
much of the alphabet in the name he in
herited from his father and mother. He
ought to have been named Grove, simply,
and the deeper and denser the concern
was made, the better it would have suited
him. He says that the fifteenth amend
ment is q fraud, and its enactment has
perilled the dearest rights Of the people
and the States. Can the Democracy find
no better material than this man to make
governors out Of? He is @ regular night
mare, rending the heart Of the people
with abominable suggestions of disaster
and outraging the records Of the country
with nonsense. Let US see The fl
tenth amendment only confeEs certain
political rights. The constitutions Of the
different States confer the same rights,
and if the fifteenth amendment was
blotted out, all the people Of this republic
would enjoy the same rights which they
now posses. Then what nonsense to call
this act a peril to the country, when it
has been accepted by the States in their
individual capacity? His statement that
it was adopted by fraud is as false in fact
as his conclusion that it is peril to the
country, is false in argument. But of
such is the Democracy. When they are
not plundering the people they are setting
up bug-a-boos to fiighten them into
acquiescence in their rascaities

Rev. Evans Green, pastor of Carrollton
Methodist Episcopal Church, informs us
that the pseudo Christian Republican Asso-
citation used his name, on a recent occasion,
without his knowledge or consent. He re-
pudiates as false to the Republican party
any outside sectarian movement, and conn-
sells his friends to adhere steadfastlv to the
nominations made by their chosen delegates
in the convention. The reverend gentle
man is man Of practical good sense and
his race.

Jack Ferris, an old and well known for
ger, has been arrested in Boston, as the
principal in the forgeries in which ex-De-
tectivc Dunn was concerned, and upon
which he is now in Jail awaiting trial.
Some years since Ferris committed for
gerry on a Boston bank, for which he was
arrested by Dunn, and he latter's evidence
sent him to the State prison. 1t seems that
when Ferris was released, he and Dunn
went into partnership in the forgery bust
ness, and now both are likely to spend sew
eral wears in prison.
