a QUESTIONABLE EFFORT,

The New York Times seems to think
that the best way to uphold General
Grant in Louisiana is to attack Governor
Warmoth, which it proceeds to do by
holding him responsible for everything
which the Legislature has done. We pre-
sumo that this is done in the interest of
its affection for the administration, since
it is confessedly an administration paper.
The first count in its indictment is that
the friends of the Governor of Louisiana
refused to sustain resolution nominating
committee to investigate his conduct in
1869. Suppose a resolution was intro
duced into the Senate of the United
States to investigate the conduct of the
President, would his friends rally to its
support, or would they scout it out Of
Congress as an intentional insult, and
one not to be countenanced? When the
Times answers this question, we shall
then decide what more to say on the sub
ject, as the matter is one that can be
turned over in various ways.
Its second count is, that he is response
BILE for the many speculative bills which
have been passed, and the extravagant ex-
penditures which have been voted by the
Legislature, creating an untold indebted
ness, ard necessitatiRg a heavy increase
in the rate oftaxation. If the Times was
a we'll informed newspaper, it would
know better than this; and, as it is a
truthful paper, it will correct its state
ment when we assure it that the Governor
has made most Of his present political
enemies by vetoing speculative bills.and
unnecessary appropriations, and that he
secured the adoption of limitation in
the Indebtedness of the State mainly to
prevent the passage Of such appropria-
lions hereafter over his vetoes. A casual
glance at the journals of the Legislature
will show that Governor Warmoth has
prevented the Indebtedness of the State
from being swelled to sixty millions by
the judicious use of the veto power, and a
knowledge of political management in
this State enables US to say that but for
his opposition, the men who are now op:
posing the Governor would have voted
away, in the shape of monopolies, half the
franchises Of the city Of New Orleans and
the State of Louisiana. In fact, to state
the matter mildly, it is susceptible of
proof that the present combination to
break down Governor Warmoth originated
with the lobby, which is composed of dis
honest Democrats and 'disafected Repub-
licans, for the very purpose of paving the
way for the repeal of the limitation clause
in the constitution, and the passage OF
speculative bills to the extent Of millions
Of dollars thereafter. If the Times con
siders itself justified in supporting Presi-
dent Grant by helping such an endeavor,
it can proceed at its leisure.

PERRT'S VICTORY.

This day ffty-eight years ago the battle
Of Lake Erie was fought between the
american forces under Master Command
ant Oliver Hazard Perry, and British
squadron in command of Commodore
Robert Heriot Barclay, who had served
under Nelson at Trafalgar. The engage
ment took place September 10, 1918 at
Putin bay, near Erie, Pennsylvania. The
forces were about equal in strength, Bar
clay having six vessels mounting sixty
three guns, and five numbered and two
officers and men, while Perry had nine
small, hastily-built sail, mounting fifty
four guns, with four hundred and ninety
officers and men. 1t was desperate
fight, resulting in the complete success OF
the American arms, the whole British
feet being captured. On taking posses
sion of the British vessels, they were
found to be very much cat to pieces.

WILLING BUT OBSTINATE VICTIMS.

One Of your downright, unequlvocal,
Bourbon Democrats is as hard to catch on
O. matter CT fact as an electric eel is to be
held by the tail. The Wings never could
fasten a Pennsylvania Democrat on the
tariff question when the entire party in
the South was going it full tilt for free
trade. Mr.. Buchanan always managed
to read the platform Of his party to mean
protection to Pennsylvania coal and iron,
and in Louisiana the tears used to flow
when the faithful were told how necessary
it was that free trade should not be applied
to sugar and molasses. Just so about the
new departure at present. Ask Bourbon
Democrat what the amendments are, and
he will say they are infamous. Ask him
if he intends to support the nominees OF
the national Democratic party if they are
pledged to accept these amendments and
he will at once wander off into an eloquent
argument to prove that the national Dem
ocratic party can never make such a con-
cession. This is as far as your Bourbon
Democrat can go, and it is as far as he
ever does go. He will not say what he
will do under certain circumstances, but
he expects everybody else to say what they
intend to do in certain contingencies.
This can only be accounted for on the
suggestion that the Bourbons are simply
obstinate, and nothing more. They can
be counted on all the while, notwithstand-
ing their outcry. They are of that easy
virtue which consents even while it swears
it will not yield. And of all the Bourbons,
the Louisville Ledger is probably the
readiest to fall, since it is the stubbornest
to contest

A farmer came home suddenly to New
England, from Texas, and as reason for his
hasty exit from that Southwestern State, he
said, Il was attacked with a fever, and my
physician began trying on my clothes as
soon as he wrote a prescription, and my
hired man began to pick up my loose prop
erty before he'd mix the medicine. That
cured me of my malarial fever, and of my
Texas fever also"

The editor of the New Orleans Patriot
rather apologies for the unfortunate fact
that he is not acquainted with Lieutenant
Governor Dunn. AS the public has long
been aware of this fact, and as it knew
that the fault was not chargeable to the
editor of the Patriot, it has considerably
refused to blame him for an unsatisfed
ambition which ne could not get rid of.

The Louisville C0mter-JOlrnQ! declares
that to oppose the constitutional amend

good sense. And all the new departure

McCaleb and Zacharie,- Soy 'samen p
with the profoundest genufection. As
there has been no additional legislation
to make these amen 1ments legal, since
1868. what are we to think but that all
these parties have cut their wisdom teeth,
and are better informed politicians now
than they were three years ago? And if
they were incompetent in 1868, who is to
voueh for their competence in 1872? In
fact, to draw a bead on the matter, since
it is up as target, why is not our advice

By ScrofulJus diseases is meant those that arise
from an impure or low state of the blood. This in

that Consumption is Scrofula" No competent
authority, we suppose, di.sents from this
opinion,
This new LOUISIANA REMEDY has been thor
oughly tested in great variety of cases in dis
eases of this class, and the re suits have aston
ished those knowing the facts. So great is the
interest which it has excited that its manufacture
has been undertaken in New Orleans on large
scale. Contracts have already been made for the
supply of Massachusetts, California, etc.
