The Debt of Louisiana

The Louisiana papers are debating the
question Of 'he solycncy of their State
under the burden OF the heavy taxation 4
Radical government has imposed upon it's
people. The State debt is said to be $780,
100000, as far as can be ascertained. The
general conclusion is that the State can
and must stand the amount of indebted
ness at present accumulated, but that if the
same condition of affairs continues in the
future, the same wasteful extravaganza,
the same INSCRIPTIONS robbery and the
same unvarying, unbroken rascality, the
end cannot be other than Iepudiation.-
There seems to us, as far as can be judged
from present appearances, but little pros
pect of a change. Yarmouth and Pinch
back, Packard and brother-in-law Casey,
still snap and quarrel over the spoils, and
the State is rapidly speeding, with all
brakes up, in the gulf of bankruptcy.
