It Is estimated that two millions francs worth

that love and confidence that have for SO
many years inspired the breasts Of Repub-
hcans, who are proud of their great
captain, and hopeful that his success in
civil affairs would be equal to that which
crowned his efforts in the field. And ifhe
does not know, if he can not foresee the
inevitable consequence of this loss of con-
fidence and support, he will have only to
ask MIR. Boutwell,, Mr.. Creswell or any
observing politician in or out of his cab
met to find out. For. to-day, the Repub-
lican party, fully represented in the late
State Convention here, is determinedly
hostile to his appointees here, as it was to

A DEMOCRATIC GAME FAILS.

The Tammany Democracy, of New
York, which may be said to be the soul of
the Democratic party in the United
| States, has been SO fearfully assailed
| within the last month for its robberies of
| the municipal treasury, that, as last re-
sort it has applied to the Chamber of
Commerce to appoint a committee to ex-
anime the city accounts. The Chamber
of Commerce has declined the job 1t
had neither the time to do the work nor
the disposition to be bored with explana-
tons of this and that dishonesty. No
doubt, the members recalled a similar
effort that Tammany made few months
ago, when Aston and two other well-to-do
citizens were inveigled by Connolly to in
vestigate his accounts, and were so com
pletely cheated in the examination that
they published a statement that the very
frauds which have since then been brought
to light had no existence in fact. Astor
must feel cheap at the manner in which he
was sold, and he no doubt feels that his
mistake has furnished other men of his
character with the good sense to keep out
Of such investigations as dishonest men
invite good natured bon uiuants to make.
What William B. and his boon COM
panions declared to be all right is now
proved to have been all wrong, and the
Chamber of Commerce would have been
expected to engage in just such a dis
honest withdrawing of Tammany Hall
as Aston had himself to. The World.
which said the members of the chamber |
were incapable of making an investigation
of the city accounts in June, when the |
people asked for showing, is now very
anxious to have committee of merchants
to look up the books, since they are the
best accountants in the city. But the
entire game is a failure, and all that Tam
many can do is to publish the accounts,
SO that everybody may see for himself
This ought to have been done at first but
If the public could have been cheated
with certificate, the game would have
been managed better.

WHAT THE NORTH SAYS.

In the North, as in New Orleans, the
instinct of the people has discovered the
true relation of affairs in Louisiana.
Without previous instruction, uniformed
about the causes that produced the adj
journment of the convention to Turner
Hall last Wednesday, the Republicans of
the North have arrived at conclusion
that does honor to their hearts as much
as it does to their heads. Their estimate
of the true state of affairs, derived from
bare relation of the facts, was the SIM
| pie induction of reason and honesty.
The telegraph told them that when the
| delegates to the State Convention met,
they were required to submit their Gre
dentials to United States officer; were
forced to procure tickets of admission
from the same party, in order to obtain an
entrance to the hall in which their duties
were to be transacted; were confronted
by United States soldiers at every turn;
were interrupted by United States deputy
marshals at the door of'the hall; were in a
United States building, and were finally
refused the entry by a federal agent, to
the very room in which they were re-
quired to meet. The telegraph went on
to say that the delegates protested against
the interference, and that, their protest
not being needed, they adjourned to meet
where they would no longer be subjected
to such annoyances. This simple state
ment which is the exact truth, went to
the North, and on its relation the North
ern people founded their conclusions,
which are now coming back to US on the
wires in tones not to be mistaken. The
sentence of the North is, that the faction
which used United States soldiers to up
hold itself, as the Customhouse party did,
is not entitled to speak for or to represent
the Republican party in Louisiana. Its
next conclusion is, that the convention
which was so powerful and popular that
it could only be beaten by the gross
abuse of federal authority, is the true and |
legitimate Republican party of Louisiana.
And the North is not slow to express this |
opinion, and to avow its sympathy with
Governor Warmoth and the delegates who
STOOD by him so manfully through all the |
turmoils of Wednesday. |
The faction at the Customhouse has |
offered the proof of its own weakness be-
fore the country, and the country is pro-
Judgment. The lightning tells
us how the instinct of the people has
OWNED the real truth, and determined the
genuine from the bogus wing of the Re-
publican party. Before the convention
met, the North was insdoubt, because the
administration lent its assistance to the
element in this State.
Since the day when the popular will was
20 plainly expressed that it could only be
overcome by the use of federal troops, the
country is no longer uncertain as to the
rue opponents of the Republican party in
Louisiana. A factious minority does not
iced to be beaten in any such way. A
powerful majority never resorts to such
desperate measures to defeat its enemies.

THE AsIATIC CHOLERA.

We are being treated to a sensation
which might have alarmed our forefathers,
but which has but little effect on the pres
ent generation. The telegraph reports
that the Asiatic cholera has started on its
western tour again, and that its journey
will embrace the circuit of the world
Before medicine had arrived at its present
wonderful perfection; before science had
discovered the efficacy of certain disinfect-
ants; before herb tea and suffocating
rooms were abolished, the cholera was
terror to the communities of every nation.
But We have outgrown apprehension.
Mankind has learned how to fight all its
enemies. We arrest the smallpox by
vaccination, suppress the yellow fever
with cleanliness and fresh air, and the
cholera will have to stand back because.
science will remove the atmospheric i'm
purity upon which it feeds, or it viii find
an antidote for the disease itself. The
cholera has lost its tsrrors

HOW 1T WAS DONE.

When Mr.. Herwig paraded his COM
parative statement of receipts at the Gus
tomhcuse on the ninth of August for
three different years, he rather 'overshot
his mark. Not content with making a
reasonably fair showing, be became am
bilious, and made the receipts of gold
last Wednesday nearly double that of the
competing days Of course We do not
deny that the Customhouse books will
show that his statement is correct, but
they will also show fearful decrease for
the seventh and eighth. VIII Mr.. Her.
wig favor US with the receipts for Mon
day and Tuesday? Or, what is better,
will he give US the names OF the persons
who were venturesome enough to risk so
much gold among rather scaly crowd of
people that guarded the entrances to the
Customhouse on Wednesday. Perhaps a
little bag of gold or check for specie was
considered as good as one of Packard's
passes, and admitted the bearer. And
this being well understood, our merchants
made their payments an excuse for visit
ing the Customhouse when they could not
otherwise get in.
Seriously, it is said by the knowing
ones that formidable portion of the
ST, 036 70 reported on Wednesday could
have been sent to the sub-treasury on
Monday and Tuesday. We suspect
there is some heather Chinee business
in this case.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-08-12


worth anything, has ever dared to say he
ever heard Governor Warmoth utter one
word against General Grant in any
manner.
In his speech at Turner Hall, Thursday
afternoon, Governor Warmoth gave fiat,
unqualified denial to the statement as to
his opposition to General Grant. 1t was
no casual. denial was full, complete
and frank. We rather think the Custom
house clique will find it somewhat diff
cult to Circulate such falsehoods after
shis-for now that the Governor has felt
compelled to speak, every one who reads.
his speech will be ready to deny it to their
faces.
Weare glad that the Governor has nailed
the lie to the counter, for we are satisfied
General Grant and his friends North will
be able to do the same thing there. 1t is
by the circulation Of just such reports
that Casey has poisoned the minds of
many of the officials and friends of Grant

We copy the following complimentary
notice Of the Supreme Court from the Clai-
borne Adr0cutc.
With all the faults possessed by Governor
Warmoth, he occasionally has been of ma
terial benefit to the people of Louisiana.
Whether by accident or not, we can not say,
but he has given us supreme judges, who,
for learning, honesty and judicial ability
Will compare favorably with any Of the
supreme justices in the other States of the
Union.
sitter careful examination of their many
elaborate opinions, and personal acquaint-
ance with quorum of the bench, we would
most willingly trust any cause of ours 10
their decision.
The people of the eleventh judicial dish
trict may well be thankful to Governor
Warmoth for the very excellent Judge he has
given them in the appointment of the Hon.
j. C. Egan
We have been led to this notice of Judge
Egan, by seeing that not one of his many
decisions have been reversed upon appeal.
This, coming from a supreme bench, such
as ours, is the very highest testimony of the
ability of district judge.
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-08-12

When the people of the United States
read the manly protest of the Repub-
licans of Louisiana against the use of
federal soldiers in local contests, they will
understand that we have not forgotten
the principle that ''eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty" Messrs. Packard,
Lowell & Co. mistake the patriotism of
Congress when they assume that the law
which was intended to prevent disloyalty
from overthrowing the work of recon-
struction, may be diverted with impunity
to such an abuse as they put it to last
Wednesday. The statute was framed in
the interest of the country, and not for the
benefit of faction.

A mob of :'new departure" Democrats
in Greensburg, Kentucky, set fire to and
destroyed Bourbon printing Office be-
cause it would not go off on the ''new
shute." Mr.. Fields, who carried on the
refractory concern, is out of pocket about
two thousand dollars, but he has no
doubt acquired lesson in liberation
which will do him good. 1t has been the
custom in Kentucky to mob Republican
newspapers exclusively; but it seems that
the practice is elastic, and will do to use
toward any refractory publication that
does not discuss public measures to suit
Ku-Klux. And since the Bourbons in
vented this process of suppressing oppo-
sition, it is only fair that they should be
made to taste its effects. The man who
made the guillotine lost his own head
under its glittering axe, and Mr.. Fields,
who could not appreciate the beauties of
free speech, is now the victim of his own
