demoralizing project Of annexation. It will
be perceived, too, that In holding Congress
together for the express purpose of some
special legislation for the suppression Of the
Southern Ku Klux Klans General Grant has
hit upon good Northern electioneering
movement. II revives the issues of the
war, and upon these, 30 long as
the democracy consent to fight them,
they can be held as still fighting the old bat
ties of the rebellion. Absurd, too, as the
association may appear, the shocking atrocities
Of the Paris Jacobins are reacting here to the
prejudice Of the democratic party in connec-
ton with these Southern Ku Klux Klans
We have commended, and still contend, that
q general amnesty to the South would do more
for law and order and for the administration
in that section than all the pains and penal
ties that could be crowded into a dozen
coercive measures. Should Congress fail
upon this point the democrats, In
accepting the Constitution as it is" can still
gain all the South and much of the North upon
the platform of universal Southern amnesty.
Again, if this Congress shall fail, as we expect
1t will fail, to make any material reduction in
our general burden Of taxations, the democratic
party will have another opening for the popu-
lar side of this important question. The late
elections do dispel the idea that the New
Hampshire republican defeat was the begin
ming Of aspoltical revolution; but they do not
settle the question of the next Presidency.
They leave it open, with choice to the demo-
Gratis Of the weakest or strongest positions in
the fold.

The SPEECH Of Ben Batter on the Ku Klux
bill in the House yesterday il the aBlest go FIR
made on that subject in either house. 1t Is
not generally known that Butler can grasp a
subject in all its tulness, and analyze and dis
sect II vita the skill of surgeon, and expound
1t with the acnmen of a chancellor, when he
bends his mind to IL, but he can, and did yes
terday. He made the point that the demo-
Gratis of the North build no schoolhouses in
the South, and that the school teachers and the
school "marms" who teach the ''niggers" are
Yankee republicans. There is no DENYING
these facts, and the way Mr.. Butler puts them
leaves tie very strong inference that demo-
crazy, as expounded to-day, profits more in the
dark Ku KIuxism Of ignorance than in the
enlightenment OF learning.

THE BROOKLYN WHARFAGE BILL, which was
intended to reduce the exorbtant charges OF
the pier and wharf owners in our ncighboring
city, was taken out OF the Assembly yester-
day by the request Of the Senate that 1t be
returned to that body, which originally passed
it. This defeats it. The Senate will never
let the Assembly hear Of it again. 1t is a
queer sort Of legislation at the best but when
bill is returned to the Senate on reqnestit is
at least fair 10 expect it back again when the
Senate Is through with it.

The Rinx II spsis asd the Now Spanish
Parliamcat.
His Majesty Amadeus has met the. new
Parliament fSpain. The members Of the Cortes
who were returned to serve In the legis-
lative body at the general election which has
just been held in the kingdom have assembled
in session in Madrid. The King went down
to the Cortes hall In state. He was well
received by the popuacs out of doors, aud
enjoyed q respectful, cordial greeting from the
Legislators inside, as will BIO seen from the
cable telegram in which VIC report the scene
and circumstances of the occasion. This was
really and in truth the first Introduction
which Amadeus has had to the Spaniards,
according to the theory of constitutional mon
archical governments. The Parliament speaks
for the people, and this Parliament
having been just elected by tree citizen vote,
brings the popular national aspect Of
Spain face to face with tho Crown. The
meeting, so far ss we are enabled to judge by
the present dispatches. has been of an agreea-
BILE character. We have been already in
formed, indeed, by cable kilograms from
Spain, that solid, sensible working majority
of this present Parliament will support the
measures Of the Kings government. Amadeus
appreciates the opportunity. He is likely to
utilize it favorabiy for his dynasty. His
throne speech presented three most essential
points for future legislation and government
negotiation, viz.:-The pacifcation of Cuba,
political and financial reforms and the resump-
ton Of administrative relations with the Pope
II the King Of Spain should be able to elabo-
rate these three points and reduce them to
Parliamentary shape aud practical application
he will have secured a measure Of Magma
Charta for his adopted country. He appears
well in.cntioned and ''plucky," at all events,
and not much, if at all, tainted with the
embedding ministerial dcmoralizations of the
parent stock in Florence. Let King Amadeus
have fair chance.

In TIE New DOMINION PARLIAMENT yester-

porating the Knickcrbockcr Loan and Trust
Company authorized il to do mercantile,
safe deposit, banking and pawnbrokers' bust
ness. Such monstrous powers have very
properly caused Governor Hoffman to veto
the bill. In this instance, as ia more than
one which has lately called for veto, the
case is clear. But trainers Of legislative bills
have, like the "heathen Chinee," SO many
''ways that are dark" as to justify the Gov
ernor in following the safe old rule in whist
whenever in doubt take the trick.

TuE LATEST ATTEMPT AT BANK ROBBERY
The details OF the attempt to rob the Central
Park Savings Bank should warn the directors
Of similar institutions to take special and con-
tinual precautions against such outrages. Bold

enter the bank in broad daylight, bolt the door,

feeble old man, that he was alone in the
bank, and nothing but the chance arrival of
director, who smashed the glass of window
aud thus frightened them away, prevented Ane
SUCCESS OF their well planned attempt.

THE DEMOCRATS in the Legislature found
themselves enormously out OF pocket yester-

Tweed is said TO have been the pain cause OF

read despatch on Monday saying that Eng

more bets than they will be able to pay, at tue

- There is but one treatment uni
verBally agreed upon as the most

attacked BY the fever, take warm
bath and a purgativs the first
thing, induce and keep up q per-
SEPARATION; keep well covered; DAT
nothing; keep the bowels open, and
avoid taking cold. There is no
necessity for taking strong medi-
cines, though it is wen to have a
competent physician take che case
in hand at once: and the most care
full nursing and abstemious diet,
for several weeks, are absolutely
essential to recovery. With these.
and a clar conscience, nine pa

The weekly echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1868-1876, 1871-08-05


va. The examination Of Vthe
pupils Of Miss Fanny Gray's Fe.
male School ia this place last week
friday was highly creditable to
both teacher and scholars. In
every sense Miss Gray is fully
competent for the discharge OF her
delicate and responsible trust, and
we are glad to hear that her valua-
bic services are highly apprecia-
ted, AS this is the only female
school in our parish, we hope its
patrons, during the August vaca-
ton, will enlarge and improve the
school room; a reform most ur-
gently needed.
We are gratifed to learn that
Miss Gray viii se-open her school
on the first Monday Of September.
