TIE POPULAR IDEA,

1t is often amusing to note with what
facility hostile political opinion comes to
harmonic with popular sentiment. II
only needs to be known that a majority Of
the people favor a certain measure, when
the antagonism Of aspiring individuals
and even journals appreciably subsidies.
This truth is being noticeably illustrated
Just now in our community. Those Of our
Democratic friends who were going to die
in the "last ditch" before they would
surrender one jot or title of their partisan
theories, even staid and sober journals
like the Picayne and Bee, are now begin
ming to admire the frank and generous
philosophy of Greeley, and think it more
than likely they. may be brought to the
support of the Cincinnati nominees.
Now, we hold that this comes Of the
force of popular sentiment. The people
are rarely in error. They judge dispas-
sionately and decide correctly. They felt
an assurance from the beginning that the
principles of the Cincinnati convention
were in harmony with the public neces-
sites. If not enthusiastic at first, the
calm, deliberate approval that-was mani
tested soon assumed the feeling which
resembles popular delight The condition
Of public affairs was such that the plat
form Of the convention was suitable alike
to State and national politics It meant
reform wherever abuses were to be cor
rected. How, then, could State and ma
tional politics be separated. It meant to
enlist, and did engage, the allegiance Of
every man who had the good of the peo-
pie and the prosperity Of the country at
heart.
So with US; the ragged elements which
had drifted into partisan rifts-which
whirled about in ceaseless but ainlless con-
fusion-begun to turn to this great prin-
ciple Of unity and reform as the needle
turns to the magnet Once its attractive

Ard the organ sumsathem up as follows:

IObal. 1l5o
It then grudgingly comedies that Penn
sylvania is quite likely to go for Mr..
Greeley; and in case both New York and
Pennsylvania are added to the one hun
dred and thirty-eight votes Of the States
that went Democratic in 1868, and are
now conceded to Mr. Greeley, be will
have enough to make him President with
ont looking to Louisiana, Ohio, Illinois,
Missouri, and other States that are sure to
vote for the Liberal Republican ticket
Besides, the organ is very seriously at
fault in attempting to convey the idea
that the Republican party has not lost
ground ; very seriously lost ground with
the people since the election Of President
Grant. That it has done this has been
clearly demonstrated in Missouri, Ten
nessee, Virginia, and other States whose
people have combined to put down radi-
calism and the corruptions and dangerous
tendencies of Grants administration. The
people are now combining in every State
of the Union for this purpose. The Lib
eral Republican movement is not only
backed up by the Democratic heart and
strength Of the country, but it has been
set in motion and is sustained by the
great body Of the people that rallied
under the banner of the Republican party
when that party commanded the respect
and confidence of the masses-the great
majority of the American people that IN
der the constitution has the right to rule,
and whose government is bound to respect
the lawful rights of all parties. The Re
publican party, championed by Grant in
the coming Presidential contest, has got
to fight the combined forces that are rally
ing under the Reform banner, and they
embrace men of all parties Democrats,
Republicans, etc.-who favor reform, and
if the Washington Republican will only
take another careful review Of the entire
political field, and do so without the use
Of Grants glasses, it will discover the
chances are decidedly in favor of Greeley
and Browns election next November.

ARTTsTT0AILY DONE

I
| Horace Greeley skillfully probes the
sores that Grantism has fixed upon the
body-politic, when he says that subject
to our constitutional obligation to main
tain the equal rights of all citizens, our
policy should aim at local self government,
and not at eentralization; that the civil
authority should be supreme over the mill
tary; that the writ Of habeas corpus should
be jealously upheld as the safeguard ofper-
sonal freedom; that the individual citizen
should enjoy the largest liberty consistent
with public order; and that there shall be
no federal subversion of the internal
poIity Of the several States and NUM-
cipalities; but that such shall be left free
to inforce the rights and promote the we'll
being Of its inhabitants, by such means as
the judgment Of its own people shall pre-
scribe.
Under the rule Of Grantism the very re-
verse of this most wholesome policy has
been observed. The equal rights of all
citizens have steadily been denied; local
seF-government has been seriously inter
fered with by the arch minions of an am
bilious and unscrupulous President of the
central government, the tendency Of whose
administration is to make the military au-
thority supreme over the civil and to
complete this part of the work the execu-
tive and legislative branches of the govern
mentor a majority thereof-have con-
spired to strike down the writ of habeas
corpus, the great safeguard of the liberty
Of the citizen Wher Mr.. Greeley in his
letter accepting the nomination of the Gin
cinnati convention, referred to what should
be our policy he very adroitly disclosed
what had been the policy Of President
Grants administration; and it is so artisti-
cally done as to leave no just cause of com
plant from any source, not even from the
authors Of the evils hinted at, and that are
sought to be entailed upon. our country by
the present administration
No one knows the disorders brought
upon the country by Mr.. Grant better
than Mr.. Greeley, and for this reason the
people viii make him the counry's physi-
clan by making him President. Then the
disorders Of the country will be rapidly
healed, and our people Will return to the
true paths Of glory that will be again
opened to them under the guidance of a
President who viii not only preach but
practice the scriptural doctrine of peace
and good will among men. The govern
ment viii then be administered as in the
primitive days Of the country, and virtue,
intelligence and modest merit will not be
thrust in the background to make way for
the vicious, corrupt and brazen-faced per-
sons who have been too often promoted to
public station-not through the viii of
the people, but through the will of
President who had friends to reward as
well as enemies to punish, and basely
used the appointing power belonging to his
Office as a personal right.

mated at Baltimore, what are the chances
Of his election 2"
The aforesaid Grant organ. too i'm
patient to wait until some well-informed,
unbiased person has answered its ques-
ton truthfully and intelHgently pro-
cesds at once to give an answer itself; one
that it would have the country receive as
correct because it makes the chances good
for the reelection of Grant, and the con-
sequent defeat Of Greeley. This very fair
Grant organ then proceeds to say it has
yet to hear from the first State where.
| Greeley has made the slightest headway in
dividing the Republican party This is
said with a gusto that would indicate that
the aforesaid organ is in dead earnest in
all it says about division Of the Repub-
lican party. And we have not the least
doubt but that the organ could prove just
as satisfactorily that there is no division in
the Republican party, providing it is per-
mjtted to define what is the Republican
party, as it can demonstrate correctly the
certain chances Of Mr.. Chants reelection.
If the sixty thousand ofice-holders under
President Grant constitute the Republican
party, then the organ is correct in saying
it has yet to hear from the first State where
Greeley has made the slightest headway in
dividing the Republican party. The Office
holders are unit for Grant They are
undoubtedly a unit for him just at
this time; but good wide margin
must be left for them to retreat on when it
becomes more safely apparent that Greeley
is making headway in the direction Of the
White House. The organ, after. asserting
in a reckless manner that Greeley has
failed i'll the East, IN the South and every
other section of the Union, very magnani-
mously admits that he may have a victory
in New York, though it regards it by no
means certain. The most that Greeley can
possibly do, according to the organ, is to
carry the States that were carried at the
last general election by the Democracy.
And the organ sumsathem up as follows:

quality was recognized, its cohesive prop
critics did the rest.
To-day, among the intelligent and pa
triotic citizens Of the State there is
scarcely difference in sentiment. The
Liberal Republican movement is fully in
dorsed by our people. And why is this so?
Because it proposes honesty as a guide,
and declares war upon all abuses of gov
ernment. They perceive that, despite the
promises of the present national admins
tration, no attempt has been made to les
sen the evils which have become burden
some and oppressive; that power, instead
of being distributed, is centralized as a
hurtful agency, and involves the liberties
of the people. The domestic rights of
the States are disregarded, by rendering
the civil subordinate to the military power,
and making the rights and privileges OF
election dependent upon national super
vision. This, accompanied by loss of
confidence in our rulers, rapidly on its
heels springs dishust and dislike 1t is
an axiom in our politics that vigilance is
the price of liberty. The experience of
the last four years confirms it, and it is
the apprehension that the exercise of un-
limited power by our executive menaces it
that is now stirring the masses of the
people into opposition to the Philadelphia
nominee. Here in Louisiana, where ex-
perience sharpens perception, the oppo-
sition is growing universal, and with the
intelligent and patriotic of our population
the election, both State and national, will
be conducted upon the basis of the Gin
cinnad convention.
These convictions have driven from the
arena of politics all but two parties, the
Radicals and the Liberal Republicans.
The former, composed of but few white
men (these mostly ofice-holders), propose
as their ultimate design the Africanization
Of the State. They do this in requital of
the negro vote. The confirmation of a ca
lamity so direful these ofice-holders are
now attempting at Baton Rouge. 1t isnot
needed that We should depict the conse-
quences. Every reasoning and intelligent
being can fully appreciate them in imagin-
alton; the reality defes mortal sagacity to
disclose.
Is this not enough, then, to unite the
white people Of Louisiana On the Liberal
ticket They should come together, put
ting behind them past differences of opin-
ion, with the sole object of opposing this
great wrong and injustice, and contribute
a united effort in support of free institu-
tiODs

AFPATRs AT BATON RnnaE.

The busy finger Of the national ezecu-
tive was plainly visible yesterday in the
political pie at Baton Rouge. For some
reason, sufficient with Grant, he has pre-
ferred Mr.. William Pitt Kellogg as the
candidate for Governor Of this State, and
all his subservient officials were working
with might and main yesterday to carry
out the will Of the master. The means
employed were similar to those used in
the Calling gun convention last August
These were, primary possession of the
place Of meeting, the selection Of a com
mittee on credentials who had previously
been selected and instructed, and barefacsd
cheating in the business of passing on the
credentials.
Our dispatches show that all the arts Of
cunning were practced yesterday, and
that the Billings men threaten to bolt in

STILL FIGURING ON TIE CHANCES.

The Washington RepuJlicra having
hoisted the name Of Ulysses S. Grant and

ing hard to prove ''that in no contingency
can the Democracy or Mr.. Greeley sue
ceedin the coming national contest. One
day 1t concludes the colored people are the
dominant race in certain Of the Southern
States named, and believing it utterly out
of the question for them to vote for Mr.,
Greeley, it finds consolation in the con-
clusion that they must vote for Grant and
for brief time it is happy. But knowing
full well the uncertainties Of all human cal
culations as to the result Of elections, before
they have taken place, it becomes restless
again, and the very next day It has re-
sumed its favorite pastime of figuring out
the chances Of success for its favorite can
didates. It suddenly becomes reckless,
and asks: Suppose Mr. Greeley is nom

consequence. The nomination Of Kellogg
under the circumstances viii therefore
surprise no one. He was Grants choice.
He had earned the position by the bad
eminence he acquired in his attempts to
saddle the enforcement bill in an aggra-
waited form upon this State until after the
next election. If he is content with the
empty honor Of a nomination at the hands
of the men who attended the convention,
we certainly ought to be, as he is proba-
bly, the easiest man to beat that they
could have selected.
