a guarantee Of peace by. securing both
parties from any capacity to injure the
other. The reasons for supporting the
fusion ticket presented by the Picayune
offer no such just and reasonable sugges-
tons as those which we have mentioned,
but On the contrary, are just such
bundle Of arguments as might have been
and were offered to the Democracy why it
should rally to the support Of McEnery,
Jonas, Ogden and Lusher
Here is where our superior elevation
gave US the advantage, that we compre-
hended the necessities of the situation and
saw the precise strategy that was required
to win the fight. Our ambition was to
save the State, while that of the Pjcayo,ae
was to save the party. And since the mar
row and selfish object Of the partisan has
been adopted as the design of the cam
paign, and since our good counsel has been
derided and rejected because it interfered
with the selfish purposes of those who con-
troll the campaign, We do not see why we
should waste our time and strength in up
holding that force which even how admits
its defeat to be a foregone conclusion,

GOVERNOR WARM0TH,s SACRIFICE.

The greatness of the sacrifice which
Governor Warmoth made on Thursday
night can never be estimated by the editor
of the PjcaWtne, who never had, nor ever
will have, an opportunity to initiate the eff
fort. The malignant insinuations that
small men will make, and the bitter sug-
gestions which mean men will put forth to
account for the Governors position, must
awaken in the mind Of every decent citizen
feeling Of sympathy fof the officers who
CALAMITY forsook the positive assurances of
success in powerful party to assist the
weaker but suffering minority to check, if
it could not defeat, the majority in its
wicked career. Governor Warmoth could
have secured the Governorship for another
four years-he could have been insured an
election to the United States Senate, if he
had been disposed to favor the Custom
house faction at the expense of the
material interests of the State of
Louisiana. If he had. signifed his
willingness to favor the lobby in its
many schemes against the people, if he
had been disposed to assist Mr. Casey and
his brother-in-law, there would have been
no obstacle cast in the way of his ambi-
ton. But he resisted the temptation that
sought to benefit himself at the expense
Of the State and cast his fortunes with the
community, although in doing SO he sub
jected himself to the malicious and stupid
ISLANDERS Of men who never let go one
chance until they have secured another.
Governor Warm 9th made an offering of
himself on Thursday night that nothing
but his own conscience will ever appre-
ciate or reward him for. We can say this
conscientiously, since he has been held to
an unjust account for what the REPUBLICAN
declared upon its own responsibility.

REASONING WITH OURSELVES.

If the entire voting population of the
State stood on the same elevation that the
Picayne does, there would be no dis
putting with it about the necessity of &C
cepting the fusion ticket; but fortunately
or otherwise, there are people who stand
on higher ground and see further than the
PjcaylH2e does, who do dispute the neces-
sity about which its limited range Of OBJ
servation has so fully satisfied it. Each
citizen sees the future from his own stand
point, those standing highest taking in the
largest range Of horizon, provided their
eyes are not clouded by some defect that
obstructs an impartial view of the pros
pect. Here is the trouble with the Plea
y,1le and its followers, that they are af-
ficted with distemper of the visual or
gan, which prevents them from seeing OBJ
Structions that are plainly perceptible to
our clearer and more practiced eyes. 1t

the road to victory, but fails or re-
fuses to provide q way for over.
coming the same, because it has pre-
JUDGE against having anything to do with
the object itself It declares d suficiency
of reasons why its friends should support
the fusion ticket, but it offers no argu-
ment why our friends should do the same
thing, notwithstanding it admits that our
assistance is necessary to its success. In
fact, while confessing that without US it is
powerless to carry the State, it directly
insists that we are not to be considered in
making the attempt. This is virtual
surrender Of the contest before the battle
is fought
These are the very propositions which
the REPUBLICAN has set forth over and
over again. We declared in advance that
1t was necessary, if the Democracy ac-
cepted Of the Republican principle Of peace
and goodwill toward all men, that it
would be requisite to nominate n renre-
sentative Of this new departure. Hundreds
yes, thousands Of Republicans responded
to this suggestion, and agreed to abide by
such nomination. They said, as. we said.
that under this combination, the Democ-
raey would be protected by the Legisla-
ture, while the eoalescing Republicans
would rely upon the executive department
for their repose and security, 1t was the
offer Of men who neither meant to do
wrong nor to suffer wrong. It suggested

TROUBLE ON THE LEVEE.

The jackson railroad owns two squares
Of ground on the leYee, and contend that
this ownership carries with it riparian
privileges. In pursuance of this idea they
are making some improvements which in
clude the use of ground which Admins
traitor Remick contends is sadly detri-
mental to commerce. In consequence Of
these conflicting ideas-the railroad COM
pany contending that they have such
rightS-quite an excitement has been
brewing for the last few days. 1t is well
understood that the railroad companies
have certain franchises on the levee; but
their exercise must not interfere with
prior and more important because public,
rights. They can build depots on their
ground, certainly, but the extension of a
track across public ground is q privilege
which nothing in their purchase or the
grant made to them by the city at all JUS
titles. The restriction Of free commune
cation in commerce is a serious thing; too
4AANeCA C4INNAC A11O LLACCLdJ pCCA u11fSA away
from US b. our ill-advised policy pursued
toward water carriers. Invidious dis
tinctions in favor of railroads should be
avoided. The right of the jackson road
is specific and well defined. Outside Of
these recited and recorded privileges they
have no excuse or justification in going.
The right set up by the road in the alb
stract may appear trivial, but in re-
atty is pregnant with more than or
binary Importance. In the first place it
sets bad example. If the city acquiesces
in the claim, other companies will be JUS
tilted in setting up rights to equal priyi-
leges. If, therefore, the 1evee is to be
burdened with every imaginable contri-
vance designed to further the enterprise
and interest of railroad companies, it may
just as well be reiinquished for all the
benefit water carriers and active commerce
will derive from it.

Mr.. Administrator Shaw thinks the pub
lie is perfectly justifable in resisting the
payment Of the park and police taxes, In
his speech before the Council on Tuesday
last he says;
I do not blame any person, unless he be a
city officer or attorney bringing. suit for the
city, for being opposed to the park tax. l
may say the same of the police tar. I do
not blame anybody for resisting these taxes.
It is not at all surprising that the Adj
ministrator denounces the park tax. Popu-
lar sympathy sets that way. But upon
what process Of reasoning he arrives at
the conclusion that the police tax should
be resisted it IS impossible to say It
stands upon the same footing as the tax
for the Administrators own salary These
services are certainly as efficient as his
own.

SOMETHING DELICATE,

And BOW comes the midwife of the Pic
ayune and prescribes that Governor War
moth must separate himself entirely from
the REPUBLICAN or his new mother-in-law
will kick up fuss in the family. Because
we decline tosbe bolused with DR.. Brick
ellis quackeries they are to be refused to
Governor Warmoth We submit to the
Democratic party, or to the fusionists, if
this is not beginning the prescription of
bigotry little too soon il. the contest, and
we submit to Governor Warmoth if it is
not about time that he held Mr.. McEnerv
responsible for this distempered interfer-
ence with his private relations. Perhaps
if the Democracy cut loose from the Plea
g,.ne it might come nearer being accepted
as the friend of all men who sincerely de-
sire to reform the State These midwives
are fussy set at best, and their advice is
only good in a professional way. When
they intrude into mere family matters,
suggesting proper OF. improper associations
for the mistress or master of the mansion,
it is time to show them the hole the car
penter left.
