Blind Tom.

The Blind Tom concerts closed last
evening with magnificent house, the audi
ence being composed to great extent of
the most refined and intelligent residents OF
the city. The selections Of music were ex-
cellent, but among the most admired was
THE Rain Storm" and the Battle of
Manassas The astonishing musical talent
of Blind Tom is beyond conception. and
those who 90 not witness and listen to his
performances, must consider correct reports
of them as absolutely incredible.
For the first time. last night, the audi
ence embraced quite a number OF cciored
people, none of whom have before attended
these extraordinary concerts Of one OF their
own race. We concur in the general wish
that Blind Tom will return to this city
shortly and give a few more OF his unique
concerts. as it is certain that lle is just be-
ginning to ie known, and to be known is to
be appreciated. We make a direct appeal
to the manager of these concerts to swing
around the circle and allow New Orleans
to enjoy the music so mysteriously learned,
go pleasantly heard and exquisitely per
formed by Blind Tom. the natural born
pianist.

1t becomes more evident every day that
the people of this country are squaring them
selves for the Presidential contest of 1872.
The latest movement in this direction is the
recent nomination by the National Labor
Reform Convention, held in Ohio, of the
Hen David Davis. of Illinois. as Presi-
dental candidate.
Judge Davis is at present one Of the JUS
tees of the United States Supreme Court:
to which position he was appointed by
President Lincoln. He was at one time a
law partner of Mr. Lincoln. and enjoyed
the fullest confidence of that great and good
man. Judge Davis is represented to be a
man of high attainments and spotless char
acter. He is conservative in politics, and
has frequently been spoken of during the
past year 'as a suitable candidate for the
national Republican party; and he has been
spoken of as an available candidate for
the Democratic party He has the reputa-
ton of being great and good man. and
almost any party might therefore consider
him available.

Aimee.

A large and enthusiastic audience gath
cred within the walls OF the Academy last
evening to witness the performance of
Ofenbach's sparkling opera OF ''Barbe
Blue"
Mile Aimee resembles Lolita in her actions
and manoeuvers, and were it notf her Ian
grage, Lolita, who has so long held the
supremacy Of being the diamond edition of
dramatic delights" would be completely
thrown in the shade. Sparkling. brilliant
and vivacious, Aimee fascinates the listener
to such degree that be is completely
wrapped in her actions, 1t would exhaust
the English and French cabularies
to find words to express the admiration that
she deserves.
AS BouloNe she acted and sang with such
exquisite sweetness that the audience gave
vent to their appreciation by frequent and
long rounds of applause, variegated with
showering bouquets upon her.
Her style is purely original. She appears
with ease and grace. Her voice and the
cute manner by which she renders the most
difficult selections make her favOrite with
all who have the pleasure of seeing her.
The orchestra. under the leadership of
Zauliq. execute their parts in such manner
as to often be compelled to repeat. They
are prompt-no music waits or discOrd-all
harmony and concord.
Aimee mas, without doubt, been the best
card that has appeared at the Academy for
a long time, and the manager should receive
the commentator of all lovers Of music for
his enterprise.

FARMING U1ENsILs.-As the season is now
come when it behooves planters and farmers
to make purchases of such implements as
they may need during the year for making
their crops, we would, therefore, advise such
of our readers as may be engaged in agri-
culture to visit the great house of Slocomb,
Baldwin g. Co., No. "a Canal street and
Nos. 81, 90 and 95 Common street. and ex
anime the vast variety of farming and
plantation utensils that is there kept. All
the most improved plows, cultivators, reap
ers mowers, hoes, rakes, shOvels, ETC., will
there be found, with thousand other new
articles which modern inventive genius has
recently introduced. Messrs. Slocomb,
Baldwin & Co.'s prices are as reasonable as
could be desired, as they never fail to make
it to the interest of all who once patronize
them to continue to do so.

There is nothing new under thc sun ia
an old and familiar exclamation. While
we do not propose to write anything new in
this paragraph, We do propose to ray few
words about an old friend and an old estah-
l$hment-the Orleans House, corner of
Common and st. Charles streets, conducted
by that popular and intelligent gentleman,
Captain Gus Richards, last year commander
Of the little steamboat that plies between
the New Orleans termination Of Harvey's
Canal and Barataria Bay. Long ago, when
he was young man, Captain Richards
made VOW that he would endeavor to
make everybody happy, and he has thus far
succeeded. One way that he does is to IN
vite the public to come to his establishment,
the Orleans House. And they respond
readily.

NEW ORLEANS REPUBLICAN, SUNDAY, MARCH g. 1872

1t is said again and again, and is. nowhere
disputed, the people have sent to Congress
or the Legislature, or allowed to be sent
there, mon of a character wholly unworthy
of public trust. Our primary meetings, at
which nominations are made, in
both town and country, have been
composedT of the most ignorant
no real knowledge Of the proper purposes
of legislation, and simply look to the success
of their personal friends, or Of the friends of
their personal schemes. Penthouse brawl-
ers, the l6ud-mOuthed and blasphemous
leaders of the grOggery and the billiard sa
LOOM, have been named to places which
ought to be filed only by intelligent, self
respecting and conscientious members of
the community. When they appear in the
halls of legislation. it is often fresh from
low intrigue with peculatOrs and thieves, or
still reeking with the fumes of a vulgar de-
bauch, in which their opinions and votes
were sold almost without their knowledge.
Is it strange that, with so many representa-
tiyes in our Senates and Assemblies of this
degraded type, legislation should fall into
beer gardeu and prize ring similitudes
Well, since the people, by their careless.
ness, or worse, are responsible for the bad
character of the men whom they employ to
make laws for them, and therefore for bad,
NolIuPts "lSCAlCNou5 tACy OAliS
can supply the needed remedy.
If they neglect the primary duty OF
electing good men to represent them they
must take the consequences. They can not
expect to gather grapes from thOrns or figs
from thistles. If they suffer barr room
rowdies and the DULLES Of gamblings bells
to pack their conventions. they must suffer
the companions and chiefs of such fellows
in the chambers Of legislation. Like takes
to like. The ruf1ian who is allowed to con-
troll the popular vote in the end comes to
control the the legislative vote he it is
that is really represented and not the peo-
pie; and he it is that first prepares the way
and afterward gilds the triumph Of men
who stuff the ballot-box, corrupt the
courts, and rifle our pockets of millions.
l am now done, but trust that this epis-
tie will cause the members of the club to pom
der on the past and look well to the future,
if they desire continued success to the Re-
publican party in this State. Charity com
mences at home. Hence, let us correct and
reform our own abuses first, before COM
planning of our political opponents: and if
we but do this our future success as party
is already assured, but otherwise we are a
failure. Therefore beseech you as part of
the citizenship to be active and vigilant as
custodians charged with the preservation Of
the free institutions begueathed by our rev.
dictionary sires, 80 that in the inauguration
of the necessary reforms of government we
can bring back its administration in unison
with the better days of the republic.

Blind Tom.
This wonderful musical prodigy closed
his entertainments in Odd Fellows Hall
last evening, to a larger audience than at
any time during the week. except at the
matinee yesterday. Blind Tom goes next

turn to New Orleans soon, and give our
citizens an opportunity to listen again to
the music of the piano, under the skilltul
hands of master Of the art.
