Dunn u apparently ambitious Of appear
ing in the REPUBLICAN as the advocate q
exponent of some original principle cl
lotcy. He therefore sends to rs rathel
prosy recital of platitudes, which being
sifted dcrt'appear to us to mean that he is
in favor Of colored men having the right
to hold any Office to which the people
may elect them. As this question was
not ii any manner involved in the charge
against him, We look upon his declaration
as decidedly gratuitcus. The charge was
that he has advised the colored people to
vote only for colored men, as white men
are unworthy Of trust. His simple denial
that he entertains or ever uttered such a
sentiment is sufficient for the purpose of
the controversy. It now becomes an issue
OF fact between himself and our inform
ants, whose names are at his service
II he desires to pursue the case fur
ther We have no apology to Of
fer for publishing the specific
charge. He admits having seen it made
substantially in other papers. So have
we. But he has not before thought proper
to deny it.. And now that We have given
him the opportunity to be heard in his
defense, be has spoken by putting in a
plea OF not guilty. If We fail in the evi-
dence We can produce, We shall cheerfully
throw up the case and admit his plea, for
1t would afford us no pleasure to know
that the second officer in the State, and
the first representative Of his race, en-
tertains sentiments so fatal to the interests
OF the weaker half Of our citizens. He
will please take notice that we have not
placed him il false and injurious posi-
ton, nor in any position whatever. We
have merely called his attention to reports
which, in our judgment, reflected upon
uis character as man Of common sense,
TOR the purpose Of giving him an oppor-
tunity to contradict them if untrue. And
We shall endeavor to be entirely fair in
al future treatment Of the subject, and
weigh the testimony on both sides with
lmpartiality. For if We have any prefer
ence. it is in favor of tie hope that
Lieutenant Governor Dunn is no: the
1pholder Of political sentiments that
would deprive citizen Of his privileges
because he unfortunately happens to be
white.
New Orleans Republican., 1871-10-19

If Lieutenan: Governor Dunn wants
the colored people in Louisiana to sup
port only men 6 their own race because
they are in a majority, he can not object
to the same rule when applied the other
way: that colorsd men shall be excluded
from all federal offices because in the
United States tae whites are in the ma
jority. Mr.. D.nn is weaker than bis
enemies have asserted Lim to be, and
he is proving tie fact to the satisfaction
of everybody in his latest efforts.

CIVIL RIFE.

The election OF General Grant in 1868
to the Presidency Of the United States
was undoubtedly concession to the mill.
tary element Of our people and govern
ment; and President Grants administro-
ton has been rendered conspicuous for
its patronage to military men. To cer.
tain extent this is proper under the cir
cumstances. The American people are
not ungrateful and the President s inclica-
ton to confer civil lorors and emolu-
ments upon military men has not encoun-
tered their disapprobation. Aside from
the services and devotion displayed in the
Of its armies, there were good reasons in
1868 why General Grant should be elected

Colonel Hodgson, who is considered an
intelligent man generally, was the author
of the suggestion that the shooting Of
Clantcn was premeditated assassination.
The mere reading Of the statement made
by Clanton's friends was sufficient to sat-
isfy any perfectly sensible man. which we
deny that Colonel Hodgson is, that the
shooting was purely incidental to tie
meeting Of hot-headed individual will
one that was half drunk, and that Clan
ton was more to blame than Nelson. The
utterance of such charge, under the cir
cumstances, seeing how the father of
young Nelson had acted il the arrest Of
his own son, was q very unjust and un-
generous thing, and the retrac,ion which
Hodgson has made will never relieve him
from the censure of good men for his i'll
judged and partisan accusation. He has
and definitely withdrawn the
wicked defamation. Now let US see if the
Patriot will have the manliress to do the
same thing.

TurnIps After Potatocs- :.

Soil that has been properly enriched for
an early crop of potatoes can readily be put
into condition for turnips. AS soon as the
potatoes are gathered, rake up the haulns
into heaps and burn; after which, careful
ly spread the ashes. Plow andharrow the
land level, and its ready for the seed. We
prefer the Yellow Stone, but the Purple
Top and similar white sorts are good. and
viii not be refused by cattle next winter.
Some times it is well to add a dressing of
some kind of commercial manure, such as
bone, poudrette or superphosphate, but ev
cry man should judge for himself whether
this is necessary or otherwise.
The usual mode of sowing the seed oflate
sorts is broadcast, but we believe that it is
better plan to SOW in drills, as with ruta-
bagas, although the rows may be nearer
together If the wether should be wet and
warm for two or three weeks after sowing,
the weeds are very likely to start and
cheek the growth of the tHrnips. We
know that farmers object to the expense of
hOeing, whenever and wherever it can be
avoided, but if less ground is cultivated
and good stand of plants secured, an
equal number of bushels of roots will be
secured, without additional expense
