NEW ORLEANS REPUBLICAN FRIDAY DECEMBER 20 1872

OF the Board of Heal b. The temptation
to proclaim quarantine, and continue it,
even to the detriment of trade, is greater
than necessary Commerce will bear its
share Of the public burdens, but there is
no reason why, in contending with East
ern ports for the trade with the interior,
shipping should be assessed with any tax.
which can be reduced or repealed. The
almost perpetual quarantine necessary to
maintain the Board of Health has very
bad effect upon travel Passengers
avoid quarantine port, 50 that those who
take passage at Havana for New Orleans
Will quit the steamer destined for quaran-
tine and take some coast steamer or rail
road to their destination. We have known
passengers in New Orleans some days
before the steamer in which they had~Ieft
Havana had expiated her quarantine.
With modern facilities Of travel, quaran-
tine is no longer as efficacious as in an
cient times, and should be relieved from
all unnecessary impediments to commerce
and travel. It has almost degenerated
into simple charge and obstruction upon
commerce. While We do not propose the
abolition Of quarantine we certainly ask
on behalf Of commerce it's regulation, and
especially that the preservation of the
common health shall not be continued at
the special charge Of commerce. If we
mistake not, the Chamber of Comm cree
has recommended amendments to the
sanitary law, and Mr.. Brewster would do
well to confer with those intelligent mer-
chants mon the s11biert

A POTENT CAUSE OF TROUBLE.

The immense and unconscionable per-
| qUisites Of the sherifs and clerks of New
Orleans are a subject of astonishment to
strangers. Thirty, forty and fifty thou
| sand dollars are said to be the sums re-.
ceived by some of these officers. In pro-
portion to the litigation is the amount of
spoil, and the poorer the people the more
they are feeced by sheriff, constable, clerk
and notary. It is plain that where such
vast gains are at stake there must be great
expenditure, and when those who solicit
these appointments are disappointed in
the result Of an election, there must be a
corresponding excitement. The mere loss
of a presidential election is borne with
comparative fortitude, but when a candi-
date has spent ten thousand dollars in
torchlight PROFESSIONS and party pla.
cards, he can not be SO easily reconciled
to the result. The boy who was crying
about the load Of hay upset, explained his
excessive distress when he said, daddy is
under it, The five hundred prospective
appointees of the defeated sheriff are
enraged and inconsolable. Now. these
salaries and perquisites should be rigidIy
cut down. The people should be pro-
tected from q spoliation they ere 50 i'll
able to bear. A man who perhaps cab
not make two hundred dollars yea. by
any trade OF profession IS elected sheriff
or clerk, with perqujsites Of twenty thou
sand dollars annually. Why should he
receive for his services more than q man
Of equal ability can earn at any pursuit Of |.
private life? A salary Of seven thousand
dollars would command the best talent and /.
character for the Office Of sheriff OF clerk.
Why should the people pay moye? The
Legislature has undertaken to
give the State substantial reforms. Let them
look to this fruitful source Of poverty and
oppression. Let them enact reasonable
arif Of charges and punish with the
'eVerest penalties any Officer OK emplogc
who exacts more. By cutting down these
lucrative pcrquisites the interest and *
element il our city elections viii be
greatly diminished. and the prospect OF
political calm increased in proportion.
Let the Legislature cut down and limit
Jerks. sherifts' and constable fees, and
rider any surplus of legal fees collected
bout certain salary for each officer. to
e paid to the credit of education OF
harity. The people Will thus get share
f the penalty imposed BY law Oh the
fense of poverty.

ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN CANAL.

ATLANTIC AND GREAT WESTERN CANAL.
The States of Virginia and Georgia are
looking 20 Washington to give them a
waterway to the West, instead of asking a
settlement of their internal politics. This
is most healthy indication. When the
Southern people shall learn that the
power OF State nc longer depends on
the skill Of It's politicians. but the number
and wealth Of its people. then will! come
tranquility and freedom. 1t will be found
under this view that combination with
the producers Of the West to share the
trade will give the Southern States an Inc
fnitely greater share OF power than part
neyships with Eastern politicians 20 divide

CLEAN HANDS NECESSARY BEFORE

with solemn earnestne.s "pon the peace
fitness Of the las: election and the orderly
disposition Of the people tberaat. This is
ali ie'.orS the yecord, as the lawyers say.
There is no allegation OF violence. but
there is charge Of fraud, and until the
susionists dispose OF that allegation they
avoid the main Issue. Mr.. Ogden insists
upon obtaining justice and fairness. Did
he yield these essentials 70 the RepUb-
icans: Were the people al! allowed the
same advantages one with another? Was
the registration honestly made? Was the
location Of the election polls fairly adver-
tised: We ask the people of New Orleans
these questions Did no: the supervisor
withhold until tie day of election
the announcement; Of the polls. and
was not one Of the ba!ioting
precincts. actually hidden from those who
should iav" been publicly advised Of its
location. This is the sort Of peacefuinesS
that prevailed, but it reminds US of the
virtues that Peruvian Ro.la declared he
wanted bu: few Of. Mr.. Ogden should
come home from Washington and address
himself 20 his own friends. They need
~o1e than The government;
does. When they :sarn now 10 respect
