rode Baron Rothchild's colt for the Derby

Baron, overjoyed at his success (for it had
been his darling ambition never hitherto
gratifed, to win the Blue Ribbon of the
Turf, )presented the rider with the stakes,
amounting to &c, 900 sterling or over $685.

two and three quarter minutes, it will be
seen that the fortunate riders time was
worth about 5000 second.

The Iberville Ners is ever as ready
with cheering word to bestow upon
its friends as with sound and telling
argument to hurl at it's political en-
enlies. The Ners of the l4th instant
contains the following in relation to
ourself and the CHIEF:
Our young friend Linden E. Bentley
wtll shortly commence the publication
of a weekly journal in DOnaldsonville,
to be called the CHIEF, (Which will sup
port the State government and advo-
cfse the cause of true Republicanism.
We heartily wish full success may

General F. J. Heron.

The San Antonio (Texas) Egpress
pays this handsome compliment to the
new Secretary of State:
The New Orleans Republican of Sep
tember |, contains a highly laudatory
article on the appointment of this
gentleman to succeed Mr.. Bovee to the
honorable and important Office of Sec
retary of State.
Without assuming to pass upon the
alleged improper and illegal conduct
of his predecessor, we cannot refrain
from uniting with the Republican in
congratulating the Governor and peo-
pie of Louisiana upon the acquisition
of so worthy a person as General Her
ron, to the administration of the re-
sponsible duties of Secretary of State.
1t was our good fortune to have
known General Heron in the zenith
of his military fame, when he COM
manded one of the finest divisions of
General Grants army at Vicksburg.
He was then considered one of the
most skilful, reliable and bravest,
through youngest, major generals in
that large and victorious army. We
witnessed the ability displayed by
him as soldier successfully transfer
red to civil life, in the capacity of one
of the leading merchants of New Or
leans, and subsequently, into the civ
il service as United States marshal of
Louisiana, in which capacity he won
the respect and confidence of the en-
tire community, ofall parties, through
out the State, until unwisely removed
to give place to the present incompe-
tent blunderer of the Customhouse
shame-Packard. General Heron
brings rare scholarly and executive
accomplishments into his new position,
which will be better appreciated the
longer they are exercised. Governor
Warmoth, like General Grant, seems
to possess in an eminent degree the
important gift of Judgment in the Sc
lection of good men.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1871-09-23
Business Stnpidity.

The New Orleans Republican adj
dresses the following sensible remarks
to the business community of that
city:
As there are eighty thousand Re-
publican voters in the State of Louisi-
ana, it reasonably follows that there
are about seventy thousand of these
colored men, whose average earnings
may be set down at one dollar per
day. There are about sixty-tive
thousand Democratic voters, and
these may be classified as white men.
The trade of the colored people
belongs to New Orleans, because it is
too small in detail to hunt for distant
markets. And yet New Orleans mer-
chants persistently refuse to cultivate
this immense business, and actually
frown upon any man who talks OF
trading with negroes. The conse-
quence is, that all this business that,
can go elsewhere, seeks other mark
cts where it is treated with respect
and invited to come back. And the
white people instead of coming to
New Orleans, where their prejudiees
are pandered to, go off to Cincinnati
and st. Louis, and trade alongside
of a "nigger," just because they can
get better bargains. We are running
our commercial machine on basis of
! three hundred and fifty thousand peo-
pie, when we should be running it
upon score of nine hundred thous-
and customers. The negroes pro-
duce most of the wealth OF the State,
and they are driven out of our lines
to do their trading. Was there ever
a business community that knew SO
little about business
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1871-09-23

A large and enthusiastic meeting of
Republicans in Grant parish the other
day, endorsed the Turner'S Hall Con-
vention and Governor Warmoth's ad-
mslistrati0n, denounced the Custom
hdI use gathering, and declared that all
their old love for Grant would return
if he would demonstrate his respect
fof the true Republicans of Louisiana
BY removing the federal officials who
manipulated the Customhouse Con-
vention.

Messrs. Dunn, Packard, Ingraham,
aid Others of the Customhouse clique
went to Houma, Terrebonne Parish, a
short time ago, to attend mass meet
ing in which they anticipated the Gus
tomhouse buZzard would soar triumph
antly over the Republican eagle. But,
alas for human expectations, the buzz
zard wouldn't soar. In lieu of this,
tie gentlemen above named went
HI kme sore, sadder if not wiser men (;
for true and tried Republican, James
Il. Belden, who is a firm friend of the
State administration, was elected pres
ident of the meeting, and resolutions
offered sustaining the Customhouse
Convention and the bogus Executive
Committee were voted down with a
xm. HuIrah for TeTrebonne!

fThe smart Aleckn who does the
seribbling for the Iberrille Pioneer is
in fair way to hurt himself if bad
lt1ns1are injurious. Here is his latest !:
fThe late young editor Of the st.
james Sentinel, L. L. Bentley, must
have had severe attack of the pap
fever, or he would not have been bent
on going to his pap-master, II. C.War-
lkoth.
SWe repel the charge of tardiness
Implied in the first line of the above.
IN what respect are we a late young
editor >? The pun intended in the
fourth line is almost too obscure to be
discovered by ordinary intelleets, and
is obtuseness is only exceeded by the
gnbecility of the paragraph as a whole.
:. Smart Aleck r.continues:
Bent or not bent, he has taken moth
ing but his caIpet-bag with him. The
old Sentinel, as usual, is ut its post,
Matching over the interests of true Re-
lblicans.
Took nothing but our carpet bag,

enc, for from it we have produced a
newspaper which we think will COM
pare flvorably with the erawfish Pio-

tuted the heft of the concern.

A genuine fraud, signing himself
4 A. L. Close, louisiana" some time
ago wrote letter TO the Cincinnati
Commercial, in which he denounces
the supporters of the State admins
tration as "an oligarehy, headed by
the nervous, unscrupulous adventurer,
Warmoth," and among other things
equally as truthful, says:
On the Goth of July, / was Acting
secretary of the Third Ward (St.
sIary's Parish) Convention. The at
tendance was large and enthusiastic.
e'his convention heartily indorsed 0s-
ear j. Dunn, and censured Governor
Warmoth, and after regularly electing
delegates to the State convention, ad-
fOurned.
J To which the Attdkapas Register,
published at Franklin, st. Mary Par
ssh, responds:
/ The truth is, that Mr.. Close was
aever a secretary at any convention !;
sie never WAS present at any meeting
tor the election of delegates; and no
meeting was held In the ward on the
day named.
win the journals that reproduced
the letter in question make a note of
this, or will they take stock in the
false representations of A. L. Close by
refusing to correct them? This cir
eumstance affords an excellent oppor-
tunity for testing the honesty of some
,ef the editors who use their journals
ito denounee Governor Warmoth and
THE State administration.
