OUR COURSE INDICATED.
RETRIBUTIvE JUSTICE.

The action of the House on Tuesday,
we regard as triumphant vindicatiOn Of
the course taken by the LoUIsIANIAN, when
it opposed the election fA1r. Carr to the
Speakership. We do not write now for
the purpose of arousing animosities, but
with the sole view Of calling the attention
of our friends to the fact, that the coun-
sells of our paper are entitled to some
considt ration.
There is an incident belonging to the
development Of character in connection
with the change Of Speakers and the con-
duct Of members since the opening OF the
session which deserves notice. Perhaps
the strangest Of oil the strange things
that have taken place in the House with
in the last thirty days, was the position
taken by certain gentlemen, and the ar
g1ment they used to defeat the election Of
Mr. Carter, as Speaker Men who refused
to vote for Mr. Burch for Speaker when the
House first organized, and Mr.. Pinch
back for the q. S. Senate, were found on
Tuesday boldly advocating the election
OF Nj. Burch, because he was colored /;
strange conduct gentlemen, passing
strange!
As much Us we desired to see Mr..
Burch Speaker, for he was our first choice,
we were much gratifed to find our Fl ends
adhering to Their agreement thus demon
Strating that when u,ey make q promise
it can be relied on. .,
A year ago, Mort;mer Carr was elected
Speaker of the House of Representative
in place of Col. c. w. Lowell, because OF
the latter having accepted the Federal
position of Post Master. Mr.. Carr was
the main cause Of the displacement Of
Col Lowell The tables have been turn
ed. At the opening of the session of II,
lHr. Carr, although his seat was Justly
contested, was elected Speaker before he
had taken the oath as n member The Com
mittee on elections appointed by himself
entirely ignored the contest of Mr..
Garland thus Mr.. Carr laid the fatter-
ing JUNCTION to his soul, TINT he was 'tall
right, and Immediately went to work to
reward his friends apd punish his foes In
his eagerness to do this work thoroughly
and effectually, he overstepped the bounds
of "to'3snrunce" and report says ''he al
tered the journal = TINT he and his man
Friday might control a certain
bill That report says there is "mouse"
in. ac.lit II a"rab sHoi ffi.
Gentlemen of the House, You have done
a noble work IN forcing Mfr. Carr to re-
sign. Oh be true, and Justice win yet
he meted out to that element Of the Re
publican Party, that represents nine
fenths OF the vote of the party in this
State. ,-a5H -sleW ii lr'atfIf

The Editor of the Louisiana State Re-
giser must have been on a voyage, or on
"bust," Or he must be very perverse
mortal. On no other hypothesis can we
imagine the possibility Of his egreeious
