ON CARONDELET STREET.

The races this week seem to absorb in
terest in nearly all things else. As con-
sequence Carondelet street presents a
somewhat desolate and forlorn appearance,
and nothing of more than ordinary i'm
portance is transacted there.
The demand for stocks; bonds, and
warrants is exceedingly limited, but there
is a demand which will in the end en-
barrass Carondelet street, because it is
impossible to supply it. We mean the
demand for plantation labor. 1t is scarce,
difficult to obtain, expensive, and uncer-
tain. A small proportion only of the men
hired to 60 out to plantations reach
them, because they have contracted the
disease Of jumping, and another large
proportion abandon the field soon after
they commence labor.
The most uncertain laborers are said
to be white men, and the most expensive
the = Heather Chinee" The result Of
this scarcity of labor for large plantations
will gradually be the cultivation of our
leading products in small tracts by small
farmers. Sooner or later the large plan
tations poorly cultivated must be cut up
into small farms, with greatly augmented
products.
Crops are in good condition, and the
cane has a handsome start
The policy of planting large area in
cotton, to the exclusion of corn, is not so
general this year as last, the low price of
cotton and the high price of breadstuffs
having modified the views of planters
materially.
In stocks yesterday morning Missis-
sippi and Mexican Gulf Ship Canal sold
at 1915. New State warrants, unaudited,
sold at 52a and SO, buying rates being 81
and 50, while new Metropolitan Police

Later in the day, Hibernia Bank stock

The St. Louis Republican denounces
Congress for proposing to pass a law to
suppress Ku-Klux outrages, because there
are no Ku-Klux outrages to suppress. It
then proceeds to recommend the Ku-Klux
to suspend their outrages, or Congress
will be grati6ed in suppressing them.
This is blowing hot and cold with great
violence, and if the times were not en-
lightened beyond all precedent, the St.
Louis paper would run great risk Of be-
ing considered sorcerer.

If it will cure the unusual eructation of
the st. Louis Republican, we can assure it,
upon the authority, of the proper &C.
counting officers, that the debt of the
State of Louisiana does not amount to
forty millions of dollars, and that the
idea of reputation has not entered into
the mind of our people. Our legitimate
debt is about twenty-five millions of dol
lars, and the Democrats are principally
responsible for what we do owe. The
State has guaranteed certain bonds to the
extent of fifteen millions Of dollars, and
while these may be considered as debts,
and probably are such, still the State will
try and make the real parties in interest
pay these obligations when they fall due
if the Republicans are allowed to manage
the matter. But if the Democrats re-
turn to power then it may just as well be
set down at once these Endorsements are
debts, and that the State owes them, for
she will have them to pay.

in 1866, toforty-6ye millions in 1871, With
nothing TO show for it What answer does
New Orleans make to these stupid SLAM
ders and unfaithful statements? Look
at the levee. It is crowded with the signs
of commerce. Look at the wharves. They
are frowned upon by steamships that ply
in every direction, moving trade against
wind and tide. Before the war more cot
ton could be seen on the levee than is
visible at present, because the facilities
for its movement were not at hand. Now,
steam with it's great strength and
Briarean hands cleans the wharf and
moves the shipping. 1t is true We are
not as prosperous as we might be, be-
cause our produce does not sell for the
price that remunerates the producer
largely. But as for .stagnation, there is
no sign of it. We are only quicker than
we we're before, Then look at the rail-
roads that perplex and bewilder the an
cient regime. Mobile is locked to us
with an iron bond. Texas is feeling the
approach of our railroad system. Shreve-
port follows on the prospect of connec-
ton with our levees and wharves. In
fact, leaving out the discouraging feature
that our cotton crop cost us more than it
sold for, we are stronger and healthier
than ever the old fogies dreamed we could
be. And with a good season for the
present year we propose to stagnate more
than ever toward the democracy.
