not doubt that those persons who
invoked the presence of United
State troops upon the occasion referred to
thought they were right in doing so; but
we thought differently and did not hest
tate to say so. We saw nothing wong in
the behavior Of the troops at that time.
They were there professedly in the interest
Of peace, and it is quite possible they may
have exercised good influence in pre-
venting row between two political fac
tons of the same party But we did not
regard it as proper or necessary to use
troops upon occasions Of the kind referred
to, and therefore objected. The presence
OF troops on last Monday in the interest Of
peace was quite a different matter They
were here in obedience to law; not to mo-
lest or insult quiet citizens, but to protect
them in their rights. No honest, peaceabIe
citizen could object to the presence of
United States troops for such a purpose,
especially when authorized by law ema-
mating from the highest law-malzing au-
thority in the land. Therefore, we regard
the attack Of the Times on Marshal Pack
ard and Senator Kellogg in the same light
that We regard its attack on the gallant
soldiers Of our government. 1t is an at
tempt to brand them with wrong when
they are not guilty.
The Times winds up its pestferors
article With the following wholesale re-
Election on the American people Speak
ing Of the presence of soldiers in our city
it says; ''When General Grant is created
it will be time enough to s. ,tion
his jannissaries in the streets and around |
the polling booths Of a peaceful city
Verify, this is the poorest piece Of dema-
3ogism the Tines has Representation many
} day. It is not only offensive and I'm.
called for, but is far beneath the genius Of
hat paper for invective.

disposition, and were it not for an occa-
sional lesson like that recently gwen to
France, ''the peace Of Europe would be
very insecure. The losses on the battle
field are not much regarded, as the sur
wing relations are generally persuaded
that the glory Of dying in defense Of their
country and king is an equivalent. But
when war is succeeded by demand for
payment exorbitant in amount and strict
in its terms, the poor princes have no way
to turn it to their advantage, by investing
the sacrifices Of their people With plausi-
bic names, which, if not satisfactory, at
least allay popular demonstrations Of Dis
content We may reasonably regard the
tribute Of forty million dollars week as
a wholesome reminder to the princes with
belligerent tempers that their safest coulse
is a peaceable one.

A NEW REFORM PARTY,

Every man in New Orleans ought 20 be
a practical reformer, and if he is not. be
should cease to belong to any party with
that name It is within the power OF
every man to reform himself in some par
ticular, and now is the time TO carry that
measure through. We have acquaintance
by the hundred who need reforming worse
than the politics Of the community, for
they spend more money than they earn,
injure their constitutions and afiict their
families. And as ous acquaint ances are
weak, SO are the acquaintance Of others,
and yet most Of these men, we have no
doubt, paraded before each other last
week the most extravagant demands for
reform in everything else but themselves.
The man who spends fifty cents per day,
or even ten cents for what he
does not require. is seyerer
tax upon his own prosperity than any gov.
eminent is. The misfortune with a large
class Of people is that they do not watch
their own pockets while they pretend to be
keeping careful and vigilant watch upon
the public funds. They go to the coffee.

OFFENSIVE AND UNCALLED FOR.

The Times regards the presence OF
United States regular troops in our streets
on Monday last as offensive and utterly
uncalled for There can be no reason for
coming to that conclusion, unless it is to
make false arrangement Of two promi-
nent Republicans The Times charges
that the presence Of United Stltes troops
on that day was device Of Messrs. Pack
I'D and Kellogg to menace the quiet
people. we think our contemporary has,
through its partisan zeal, been led into
doing double wrong. In the first place,
it wantonly and wrongfully assaiIs United
States troops for obeying orders and being
present in our city on lawful and peace
full mission. They were not here to moIest
or insult peaceful and law-aJiding citi-
zans, and when the Times charges that
they were it does great injustice to
branch Of our government that has never
yet disgraced itself by acts Of this kind
Our estimation of the American soldier
leads us to look upon him as the defender
OF the laws and liberties Of the people;
and when he can knowingly and willingly
be made use Of TO insult and menace the
quiet, law-abiding portion Of d community
we shall be as ready to denounce as we
are now 70 defend him against the IN
warrantable assaults Of the press. We

EFFECTIVE PEACE BONDS,

Our dispatches from Europe yesterday
morning contained two items of informa-
ton which may properly be considered to,
gether. One relates to the amount it costs
nation to be defeated in great war,
and the other is the stereotyped phrase
employed by kings in their intercourse
with each other to indicate that they DE-.
sire perpetual peace. We are told that
France is now paying to Germany $40, :
600, 900 per week on the war indemnity,
and that these payments will be continued
at that rate every week till the beginning
Of the year, at which time only two mil
lizards Of francs will be due to the exacting
conqueror. This is a terrible drain to a
county like Flance. It has all to be paid
in specie. There are no bills Of exchange:
no paper Of any kind employed in these
transactions. The specie is required to be
actually sent to Berlin, where it is weighed
as SO much merchandise. At first the French
pat themselves to a great deal of trouble
in an attempt to annoy the Germans. They
paid their tribute in five franc pieces,
which, for a time, made silver 50 scarce in
Paris that it commanded a premium, while
it was SO abundant in Berlin as to be a
nuisance, something as it was in this CITY
twelve or fifteen years ago. But the mex
orabIe laws of supply and demand rapidly
restored the equilibrium that lad thus
been temporarily disturbed b. policy
that injured one nation as much as the
other. The Germans for time suffered
some Inconvenience, but the French
eventually were compelled to pay for the
return Of the silver. The tribute is now
paid in gold. But in any event, however
paid, it is & terrible burden to bear, and
one well calculated to give sincerity to the
profession Of the Emperor Of Russia fog
the continuance OF peace between
his empire and Germany for mans
generations. N writing a congy8tU.

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION

But little interest has been felt here in
the national contest since the October
elections, all intelligent politicians being
satisfied that Grant would be elected by a
very large majority. Our dispatches this
morning fully confirm this view. New
York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Massachu-
SETS Ohio, and in short, nearly all the
great controlling States have gone Repub-
i:can by increased majorities, Greeley's
majority il New York city shripks to
$4,000, where 5000 was required to give
aim ghost Of chance for carrying the
State. Tennessee. Kentucky Maryland
and Georgia have undoubtedly given the
philosopher Of Chappaqua complimentary
Sotes TO the extent Of their ability but
!hey arc more than Offset by Mississippi,
South Caroline, Louisiana. North Caro-
lima and possibly Arkansas. 1t will be no
news O. our readers to learn that Grant
and Wilson have carried the Union by a
Tcry heavy vote.

WASTED FOTRS.

The business of conducting a political
campaign calls away I-om ordinary indus
trial pursui S, thousands of able bodied
men. These, once in the vortex of politi-
cal excitement are reluctant to return to
the uneventfnl drudgery Of useful employ
ment, Hence we see around the Mechan-
les Institute large crowds of idle, able
bodied men, who have followed the ballot
boxes from the several wards, and are now
engaged in gazing abstracted7y and IN
necessarily at the doors of the State House,
through which the mysterious objects Of
their uncalled for solicitude disappeared
on Monday after the election. All night
and all day long, and again lest night
these crowds haunted the place, cumber-
ing the Sidewalk. obstructing the doorway,
crowding and jostling each other in the
hall, and vast ng away the precious hours
which might be better employed. We adj
NIT they have q perfect legal right to thus
squander their time. This is an admitted
ly free country: and every mans time and
talents are solely at his own disposal. Yet
these men owe something to themselves.
Many Of them have large families for
whom they are expected to provide, and
have no other means Of dependence than
manual labor. They can not find en-.
ployment such as they need in the places
they now frequent. The Mechanics In
stitdteo the City Hall, the Custombouse,
The several courtrooms and the number
less whisky shops and corner grocerirs
hold out no hopeful Inducements to the
immense audiences that daily congregate
around them. They are not fertile fields |
nor wealth-producing workshops, but |
simply alluring ioafng places, where able.
bodied men squander away enough galu-
able time every gear to make their fami- |
lies independent if but properly employed.
A little more industry and attention to
business would work such a reform in this
city as no amount Of oratory could ever
bring about. Let US have some Of this
kind OF cetoln, without delay.
