OLD NORTH STATE ERECT
Liberal Republican Democracy Bit
ing the Dust.
Republican State Ticket elected by
about 1000 majority and one
Congressman gained.
Dinna Ye Hear the Slogan

It's a bad thing to be disappoint-
ed, and it is apt to produce a sour
disposition on the part Of those who
were before elate and boastful. Just
look at a Democrat now, or peep at
a Liberal Republican, if you can
find him, and see what counte-
nances they exhibit. 1t seems as
though there was nothing left OF
them but face, and that so long and
attenuated that it will never resume
its normal condition. The expires
sion, too, is that of extreme misery,
as though they had taken too much
new milk, and it soured on them,
but with all their retching they are
unable to get rid of it. And why is
this thus2
A little affair occurred in North
Carolina, last week, the first reports
of which stirred 'em up" They had
been warned by the correspondent
of the New York Herald to "drsw it
mild" on the first reports. But
they were so good they could not
wait. They feared the news would
grow fat;if they waited, and they
determined to exult while theycould,
They burned powder in number Of
places, and cut capers that were
amusing, as though the news could
not react, but il did. Saturday eg-
ening returns from Republican dis
tricts, began to show favorably, and
Monday there was doubt expressed
as to the way the State had gone.
Seventy-one counties showed a
large Republican gain on the vote Of
10 when the Democracy had 5000
majority, and as official reports from
Democratic Districts came in, it was
found they didn't Justify the first re-
ports. Monday night the Republic
an news grew better, and Tuesday
morning the gratifying intelligence
came that the returns showed ma
iority of 1866, for Caldwell, the Re-
publican candidate for Governor,
Merrimon, the Democratic candidate
it is said would contest the election
unless the Republican majority
should be over 1000; as it is over
that now, he will hardly try the ex-
pertinent.
This is what has vexed the souls
of the Conglomerates, and soured
their visages until they resemble the
quintescense Of acidity. They are
mad, too, and swear by all that's
blue that they have been cheated
out of victory, and there will be
civil war and all that if this thing
should continue. That's just the
way their compatriots talked in 1860,
but four years trial sobered their
their judgment and made them less
desirous of disturbing the tranquil
ity of the nation Possess your

Dems, and "Let's have Peacep' Its

Hon. STANLEY MATHEWS, who pre-
sided during the organization of the
Cincinnati Convention, has come out
for Grant and Wilson. Although one
of the original Liberal Reformers, %
he could not 60 Greeley, nor accept
the conclusion to "pay pensions to
southern rebels" or "shake hands
across the Bloody Chasm of the
war" Mr.. Mathews addressed a
large meeting at Cincinnati on the
2nd instant, and riddled the Greeley
and Brown flag with his powerful as
saults. Soon there will not be a
corporaPs guard left to follow the
fortunes of the gyrating Schurz or
the pompous Sumner.

THE Democracy Of this vicinity
got up a banner, and took advantage
of the I'd of August to display it for
the ffst time. But it didn't attract
much attention or produce scare
anywhere that we know Of The
banner is all well enough, if they
like it, but they made a great mis-
take in the headline, one that will
prove fatal. They announce their
candidate as "The Peoples Choicc." "
The word people should have read
Rebel, and it would have been just
right, every rebel goes for him, and
every apologist for the rebellion is in
the same boat.

THE COURTS.

The grand jury to inquire into violations
of the fourteenth amendment met yester
day. but their proceedings are not reached
at the latest research.
Judge Theard, of the Fourth District
Court. decided yesterday the case of Will
liam C. Hite, liQuidator, against John w
Tobin, as follows:
The defense set up in this case is that the
defendant is not owner of the note, and
therefore, cannot sue on it.
The evidence of Mr.. GallaLer shows that
The firm of Hite & Small, to whom the note
is made payable, was dissolved by the
death of Small, and that the plaintiff in this
case is the surviving partner, and the liquid
atOr of the firm.
Now, the whole. or rather the main pur
pose for which liquidator is appointed. is
to collect the assets and pay the debts OF
the firm. How can he do either of these
things unless he is empowered to sue
should it become necessary, in order to col
lect the assets of the firm That he is fully
authorized to do this by law, is too well
settled to debate.
In addition to this, the law is clear that
the maker of a note can not raise the ques
ton of ownership in the plaintiff unless he
alleges and proves that he has good de
Tense against the real owner. II A. ISL
AS, 526; II A. 73l.
Now, in this case, the defendant has
neither alleged nor proved any such thing
Judgment for plaintiff.

THE CITY HALL.

Almost the sole topic stirring around
among the city officials, if we except the
daily subject of conversation for some time
past. is the proposed police law abolishing
the police board, and vesting the control of
the police in the city. The corporation is
to furnish supplies and stations, to provide
for management by ordinance. The Ad-
ministrator of Police is to prepare ordi.
nances. The metropolitan organization, SO
far as applicable to other parishes besides
Orleans, is abolised. The executive au-
thority to be vested in the Governor, Mayor
and chief, the latter to be elected by the
Council. A police commission, composed of
the Administrator Of Police and two com
missioners, constitute tribunal for the
trial of members of the force. The other
parts of this draft relate to the taxation by
which the force are to be maintained.
The new railway ordinance is not yet in
shane.

Lola.

The clouds trOwned on the ST. Charles
last night, but that little sunbeam, Lolita,
had the effect of drawing quite large
audience from the damp and foggy atmos-
phere.
The attraction for the evening was Ed
mnnd Falconer's drama, Hearts Ease in
which Lolita has achieved so much success.
The plot of the piece is laid in California,
and a grapic description of life in the
golden days is depicted in an excellent
manner. A number of the characters are
really superfuous, and the piece rests be-
tween Lolita, John Davis, Dorsey Ogden
and Mark Quinan.
The piece was enlivened by several new
and sparkling songs, which really relieved
the mOnotony of the piece. Mark Quinlan
and Lolita sang the Apple of Ny Eye" in a
manner that puts Lingard and Alice Dun n
ing to blush. The play itself is rather sen
sational, and were it not for the Olio per
formance it would be but revision of Old
Rowcry slaughter, blood and thunder pieces.
But, TO pass an evening pleasantly, one will
not regret seeing L0tta.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

State warrants improved visibly yester.
day, showing that sixty-five cents were
paid for lot of small sizes, and though
many transactions may have been under
this price, yet the average must fall between
sixty-one and sixty-fve. 1t appears to be
the general impression that certificates of
Indebtedness are worth as much even as
the State warrants, while it is also said that
no difference to the value is made by regis
tratiOn. 1t has been notable feature OF
late that the mill grinds out warrants OF a
small denomination. Brokers' windows are
flooded with these, and the large ones are
decidedly in the shade. In some instances
these are produced by cutting" and at
other times are filled out in the amounts to
which the holders are severally entitled.
Were doing nothing an offense, and the
brokers brought up to stand their trial for
such sins of omission, there would be but
one plea-no buyers. Of late stock which
has lain perdu for some time, has got into
prominence. This is the Crescent City Gas
light Company. But the absence of any
reliable quotation makes it rather hard to
conclude what the selling price is, though
the matter will be cleared up before long.
The speculation in it is evident.
The last sale heard of in Lottery stock
put it at $50. The figures are owing to the
late movement in the General Assembly,
consisting only in the introduction Of a bill
to forfeit the charter. But no holders have
lost confidence in the stock as yet.
Ammonia has only it's chemical affinity to
boast of, its financial relations keeping
shady. 1t is ruling at $40.
Mexican Cult and Ship Canal stock is
moving downward faster than its best
friends would desire.
Levee stock is we'll considered, and the
prices are Interchangeable at the same figure.
Cotton sales again reached the average on
Wednesday and yesterday. The demand be-
coming spirited by reason of Liverpool dis

THAT MYsTERY.-Last Wednesday morn
ing we published few items concerning
an attempted suicide, and as our version
has been declared to be incorrect in some
immaterial points, we publish the following
from the Times of yesterday:
We learn that about half-past ten o'clock
last Saturday morning gentleman named
Louis AragOn, said to be rich Mexican
ranchero Of high responsibility, attempted
to- commit suicide in the house of Nellie
Otis, No. 16 Basin street.
1t appears that about fifteen months ago,
while ON visit to this city, Mr.. AragOn
met at the house Of Nellie Otis a woman
named Annie Carr, with whom he con-
tracted an intimacy, which, it is said, sub
sequently ripened on his part into a sort of
mad devotion. Some time last winter the
woman, at his solicitation, went to live with
him on Toulouse street, where they re-
manned about month until she, firing OF
his attentions, left him and he returned to
Mexico.
A few weeks since, returning again to
our city, he at once endeavOred to renew
the intimacy which had been broken Oft,
but she, in the meantime having found
another lover. refused to receive his atten-
lions.
Friday night last he slept in the house
No. 10 Basin street. and Saturday morning,
getting up, went into her room, and asked
her if she would not love him; the woman
refused, and he then endeavored to get her
to take some preparation which he had in a
bottle; this she also refused, when he drew
pistol and shot himself through the head.
1t is said that he at once received medical
attention, and a carriage having been sent
for, he was conveyed to the Hotel Dieu. on
Common street, where his injuries were
fully attended to.
The bullet, from the appearance of the
wound, must have penetrated the skull
and entered his brain, yet at late hour
Wednesday night, four days from the oc-
currence, he was still alive, though in an
unsettled condition, with no hopes enter
tanned for his recovery.
1t is said that Mr.. Aragon has family
in Mexico and is highly connected in our
city, though nothing positive is known. 1t
is also stated that at the time he committed
the deed he was not in his right mind, hav-
ing exhibited several strong proofs of in
sanity. At all events it is hard to conceive
what could induce a man of his apparent
wealth and responsibility to commit the
rash act which will probably bring him to
an untimelv grave
