TnA NAspo rnsA-

It was . noticeable fact that on the
day Of the election the negroes in this
county almost to a man cast solid
vote against the Convention. II there
was an exception it was rare. Placing
implicit belief and confidence in the
teachings and advice of such men as
old Joe Caldwell, alas "Old Scratch"
and creatures Of that ilk, they marched
to the polls to q man and cast their
ballots for-"No Convention" We
sometimes feel that this class are more
the objects of pity than Of reproach.
Ignorant as they are known to be, the
Radicals have taken them under their
care and teachings and have, by lying
devices, made them believe that the
white people of the community
many OF them their former masters
are their natural enemies These
Radicals have even gone 30 far
as to make these people believe
that the purpose of the Democratic
party is to put this class back again into
bondage and slavery. Was there ever
a greater fraud practiced upon ignor-
srce? On the morning of the election
old Joe went out, bright and early,
working with all his powers, with the
negroes, and the vote shows how well he
succeeded By the time the polls were
open, he had his cohorts ready drilled
and prepared for the conflict Printed
tickets had already been furnished by
the county, for both parties-thcse for
and those opposed to Convention
and these tickets were placed on the
table, where the ballots were cast, for
the use OF either party. But our "col-
ored friends fought nobly," and each one
Of them came to the box with tickets
furnished from another source, ready
for use and folded up with care.
The returns from Lewisburg precinct
show a vote of IS against Convention.
OF this vote, not more than two were
cast by white men.

NEW I DIRK, August ~, U L. M.
The business in financial circles in
cluded many features Of interest IN the
gold room. There has been a ranicaI
change in the situation. The two ex'
tremes in the price for the week were
Il2i and ll2k or a difference Of only
5 per cent. The Government bond
market has exhibited less animation
and the extreme advance OF last week
was not sustained. The new 3 per cent,
bonds advanced to par in gold and may
be called an exception to the preceding
rumors on the stock exchange. There
was a general advance in prices during
the week although this was not marked
except in a few cases. The bank state
ment is favorable and an analysis OF the
figures shows that the banks have made
a net gain of S343, 345. They now hold
SlO,4S4,3 above the % per cent. re-
quired by law.

THE METAIRIE JOCKEY CLUB,


We observe that few of what General
Grant would call disappointed men"
have been trying, by hint and inuendo, to
detract from the merits of the jockey
club. This is very foolish on the part of
the disappointed men. The jockey club
is great success. It has some three
hundred and fifty members, comprising
the most prominent men in our business
and professional circles. 1t has been care
full to exclude from its membership all per-
sons whose past conduct has been openly
defiant of the laws of society. 1t has not
exhibited any political bitterness, but, so
far as we have observed, has confined its
exertions to its legitimate sphere, the en-
couragement of thorough breeding in
horse flesh and of good order at races.
In fine, the spring meeting of 1871 was
the most interesting that ever occurred
here, all things considered. The number
of fine horses entered was larger than ever
before assembled in New Orleans, some
ninety or one hundred; the best time ever
made in two mile dash was made the
attendance was large, good order pre-
vailed, and every body except the sore
heads had good time.

uP.cQuNTRY SENSE.

It affords us great pleasure to observe
that the Ouachita Telegraph has been able
to digest our theory about the State debt,
and that it insists, as we have all along
insisted, that the best way to treat null
lily is to reject it as such at once, without
resorting to the questionable policy Of
acknowledging it by an act of deliberate
reputation. To admit that debt exists,
and then to repudiate il, is to invite dis
honor. To deny the obligation Of claim
is to throw the onus Of establishing its
validity as an honest debt upon the hold
er. This is the line of policy which the
REPUBLICAN, has suggested from the begin
ming, and it is the only legitimate defense
that the State has against improper drafts
upon. her treasury. This Is the plan
adopted by Governor Warmoth, and it has
worked very we'll 80 far. In fact, il prom
iaes 70 eject very solid benefit il it can

NATIONAL EXPANSION.

Canada ought to belong to the United
States, because the control of the North
ern lakes and of the st. Lawrence should
be in the hands of one government. AT
least, Canada should not belong to Great
Britain, for it is manifestly improper that
any people should be governed from a
point three thousand miles away. What
argument can explain to England the
wants and necessities of a province SO
great and diversified in its interests az
Canada is? How can the legislators who
openly admit that Ireland is problem too
deep for their treatment pretend that they
are capable Of deciding about the meas
ure Of Canadian development? Besides,
the very existence Of English authority
at our doors, disputing with Us about
matters over which the people Of this con-
tnent should have sole CONTROL offers
such opportunities for trouble that il
should be ended Is speedily . possible.

The usual quiet existed yesterday on
and about Carondelet street, and there
were but few transactions in stocks, war
rants or bonds.
Among the sales were ten shares Missis-
sippi and Mexican Gulf Ship Canal at
s315, and fifteen shares at the same price.
Twenty-Five shares Factors and Traders
Insurance Company sold at ss2. Two
lots of one hundred shares each of Cres-
cent City Slaughterhouse sold at $50 so,
and one hundred shares at s33. Sales
were reported at s34, but the stock re-
ceded to S32 so and S32 IS.
Fifteen hundred dollars new Metropol-
itan Police warrants were sold at 81 and
$4,000 at 97!; $4,000 large new State war
rants sold at 81. Dealers were willing to
pay 81 and So and sold at SO and IS.
Small State warrants are held at ten per

only sale was of Barbarin Gaslght stock

Since Saturday the friends Of Joe Bag
stock have kept shady about the famous
letter in the Springfield Republican. and
it is altogether probable that we shall
hear nothing more of that production.
Joe says that its publication in the Buue-
tin reminded him of boomerang. He
fail d to tell us what the immediate effect
of its rebound was in his own case, but,
judging by his hat and other external
things. the impression has crept abroad
that he suffered several Commissions from
the return of the instrument. Every
TRADE against the Radicals must not be
accepted as compliment to the Demo-
Gratis, for Republicans sometimes criticise
their friends without intending to benefit
their enemies.

the efficacy or decree of the judiciary to

native born. II ws had 70 deal With the
former feeling We could NOT escape from
the duty Of aaggelating the province for q
six month"; but since the good sense
of the Canadians at all times disarms
our indignation toward the English
officials, we are simply compelled to live
in continued anxiety that something may
happen to disturb the peaceful relations
of two great and warlike peoples. With
Canada in our possession England would
feel that there was but little occasion for
ill-will between the two countries. Our
Northern frontier would then be rounded
off 50 as to remove all apprehension from
that side, and the lines of trade and
travel would be under one flag. The
people are homogeneous. Their ideas are
the same. Representative forms Of gov
eminent exist on both sides of our north
ern boundary, and it is not unsafe to
affirm that the Canadians are already
prepared to witness the consolidation OF
the two countries. As an instance OF
this feeling, at a meeting Of one of the
clubs that has lately been formed in
Canada for the purpose of promoting
annexation, it was resolved that the pro-
ceedings should be conducted in the
English language, instead Of, as here
tofore, the French, because, as the pre-
amble set forth, it was only by adopting
the language of the American people that
similarity and homogenity' could be OBJ
tanned.
This measure is in process Of develop
ment, and it would be very hazardous to
say that it might not take place within
year. Greater things have been con-
cluded in less time.

1t is quite the safest policy at present,
in considering the telegraphic news from
Paris, not to believe all that is rushed
over the wires against the communists.
This suggestion is made to guard Repub-
icans from being too quick to denounce
what really seems to be developing into a
republican movement. The Versailles
government is working a curious game,
and we strongly suspect that the mon
archists are at the bottom Of it. If so,
the communists are perfectly justifable
in resisting the overthrow of the repub-
lie. At least we can wait. before de-
nOuncing.
