and at work for some time past in the State
house; there has been quorGm in both Houses
during this whole time, and all acts that have
been, during that time passed, are binding and
valid laws; yet we find that the three obnoxious
measures to which the Register alludes, are still
on the statute book, unrepealed, notwithstand.
ing the frequent efforts of anti Warmoth mem.
bers to have them repealed
This looks ominous. This speaks truth that
the whole Warmoth faction is striving to hide
from the people-that is, that neither the Gov
ernor, nor his satellites really desire any reform
legislation. They wish to have the State gov.
ernment run On in the same ruts without change.
They hope that this session of the Legislature
will adjourn without striking from our statute
Dook laws under which the Governor and the
members of his clique throughout the State have
grown rich and powerful, and which were in
tended as means of perpetuating their power
however tyrannical to the people and injurious
to their best interests may be their provisions
But if we are not mistaken in the signs of the
times, the good people of Louisiana are in earn
est in their determination to arrest Governor
Warmoth and his coadjutors in their career of
corruption and spoliation. These men have
oeen embolden to such degree in their evil
deeds, by the patience and endurance of the
law abiding people of this State, that they have
brought themselves to believe that there re-
mains among them, neither the desire, nor the
power to resist. They seem to forget, if they
ever knew, that when the massss are fully
awakened to their wrongs; their awakening is
generally attended with a power and an energy
of resistance in just proportion to the extent of
those wrongs and their long suffering under
them.

A FALSEHOOD REFUTED.
NEw-ORLEANs, Jan. l8, 1877

To the editor of the NO. Times:
In justice to myself, and as illustrative
of the recklesness with which the New.
Orleans Republican ISLANDERS those mem
bers of the Legislature who are endeav-
oring to bring about reform, l respect
fully request the publication of the fol-
lowing paragraph from its issue of the
9Th instant:
"Can Mr.. Bryan be considered refor-
mer when he got a resolution through the
House employing him to print the Jour-
nal, for which he received about $1,000,
besides $2,4OO for mileage as memcer
of a Committee on public and private
land claims during vacation?"
Which l answer with the following:
Office Of rarrant Clerk, Ho. of Repre- }
sentatires, N.-Orleans Jan. 16, 1872. {
[ hereby certify that the Hon. j. W.
Bryan has only been paid his regular
mileage and per diem for the session of
1871, in cash, and has received in war
rants, for publishing the Journal of the
House, twenty-five hundred dollars.
j. PINCKNEY SMITH,
Warrant Clerk.
Without, for the present, entering into
any explanation of the publication of the
House Journal in the Weekly Echo, I will
only add to the above certificate that
have received no money whatever for the
warrants.

REFORM

eve copy the following sensible article from
the Marksville Register.'-W. o. Republican, of
February 4th.
''While the valiant Col. Carter
ana MS followers have contented themselves
with mass meetings, in which they have promis-
ed no end OF reforms, the members. who from
the hrst remained faithful to their duties, have
commenced the work in earnest, and acting upon
5he snggesslons conveyed in the message of the
Governor, have repealed the Registration, Cons
tabulary and Printing laws-three measures
which had survived their usefulness. and the re
peal OF which is an evidence that the work of re-
form Is 60 be carried out in earnest, &cn
Tho editor of the Marksville Registers befog-
ged, or he has slept his post, or he is attempt
ing, in common with the Warmoth organs, both
in the city and the country, to befog, or lull to
sleep the people who are up and moving in the
right direction--that of Thorough and complete
reform.
He either has not learned that the objectiona-
Ole and infamous measures that he speaks Of,
and which he himself says chad survived their
usefulness thow very mildly he puts it'll have
NOT been repealed, or knowing this he is at
tempting, wilfuily, to mislead the people in the
cohntry and induce them to come to the sup
pors oi Warmoth and his faction, as the real,
-tas aha incorruptible party of reform.
..s.. sou KnoW, befogged Register, that the
exempt made by Warmoth's friends in the Le-
s'siasafe % repeal these measures, was mere
snsul . mere trick, intended for the purpose Of
appeaslng the indignant peoplef Those who
a0.el N Lhis farce knew full well that they had
~ repeated the obnoxious laws; they knew that
s.eif action was nnllity, and so did Governor
Harmoth and Speaker Brewster know this far

New PARIsHEs.-There are some half
dozen schemes before the Legislature
to create new parishes. These schemes
all originate in motives of selfishness,
speculation and jobbery. There are al
ready too many parishes in the State,
regarding the population and territory.
The establishment of new parish en-
tails heavy burden upon the people,
multiplies offices, seriously interferes
with the jurisdiction and business of the
courts, and produces great Inconvenience
to the people. New court sites have to
be purchased and buildings erected, and
the whole business and relations of the
people are disturbed.
We hope that there is honesty enough
in the Legislature or in the Governor to
defeat each and every one of these sub
divisions of the existing parishes of the
State.-N O. Times, I'd.

The REPRESENTATIVE FROM ST. Lam
DRY.-1n justice to Senator Daigle and
Messrs. Darby, Tatman, Durio and
Chachere, of st. Landry, we state that
they have remained true to their consti-
tuency, and have been found faithful
among the faithless." Such men are
now making an enduring record, which
will outlive the present excitement.
Those now occupying positions in both
Senate and House, are going through a
fiery ordeal of public opinion, and those
who act right and give evidence of their
faith. will come out unscathed, like
Schadrach and his two Scriptural COM
panions, but those who indorse Warmoth
and corruption, will burn like Dives,
without one drop of water to queuch
their thirst. We make thisstatement in
justice to these gentlemen, who were
misrepresented by correspondent from
