portant to them, what is vital to their sue
cess, viz: the thirty or forty thousand Lib
eraI Republican votes who will support
their ticket if its nominees are judiciously
chosen.
We can not afford to retrograde from
the broad, Christian principles of Repub-
icanism which guarantee to every man a
fair chance in the struggle for life, to the
narrow, selfish platform of the BOurbons,
with its sectional Prejudices and caste
ostracisms Louisiana can not afford to
have such unprogressive principles prevail
to the obstruction of her material develop
ment, and the destruction of social good
will and peace within her borders.
1t behooves, therefore, the delegates to
the Liberal convention to select their
standard-bearars with judgment and care,
in order that a support may be rallied
to them which will render triumph GER
tain. Any other result Of their deibera-
tons renders, in advance, the campaign
abortive-a needless trouble and outlay.
Governor Warmoth may be irrevocably
committed to the results Of their action
whatever it may be, but the Liberal Re
publicans, who up to the time the demands
Of the Bourbons keenly aroused their sus-
picions Of the goodfait of the Democracy,
followed their chosen leader so cheerfully,
are not! This promises to be life-and-
death struggle in which every man must
think and act for himself, and the Liberal
Republicans have decided that they must
have unmistakable guarantees that they
are in no danger of betrayal into the
clutches of the Last Ditchers. Ponder
this well.

OLD MUDDLEBRAIES

A correspondent Of the Picay2ue who
signs his illusions '1I," reminds US very
forcibly of Lingard's personation Of "Old
Muddlebrains.
BIuddlebrain8, as represented by the
artist, is a starchy, self-conceited old fell
low, who evidently imagines that man,
like wine, improves with age. He has
lived to be old, and feels that age has
made him both good and wise. Preg-
nant with these ideas the old fellow rises
with an air of the most exalted dignity
and, in an attempt to be both solemn and
profound in an after-dinner speech, gets
into a most humiliating middle and be-
comes distinguished as Muddlebrains.
If it were possible for old Muddlebrains
of the Lingard troupe to be here at this
season of the year, we would suppose it to
be him who is writing communications to
the P:y, over the signature of IN" But
knowing that Lingard and his troupe are
not here, we come to the conclusion that
New Orleans has a home troupe that con-
ains an ambitious Muddlebrains, and
that instead Of gaining his distinction as
the Muddlebrains of oratory, he has pre-
ferred to become distinguished as the
Muddlebrains Of the press. This is made
apparent by the inextricable muddle into
which the Pics correspondent, IN, falls
in discussing city matters. But there is a
palpable difference existing in the two
characters after all; difference that salts
fes all, after looking closely into the merits
of each, that such is the case. There is
nothing vindictive or bitter in Lingard 5
Muddlebrains. He makes no exposition
Of an unjust and illiberal passion, inspired
by wine; whereas the Pics Muddlebrains,
whose inspiration comes from nothing
stronger than soda pop, is bursting with a
foul partisan spirit, that he has not the
good sense to even attempt to conceal
This being the case, the public will have
to receive with many grains of allowance
what he publishes.

A DANGER TO BE DREADED.

There IS entirely too much disposition
to court and conciliate the Last Ditchers
and to bow to their imperious mandates.
Because they claim to be the salt Of the
earth is no reason the Liberals should Sc
lect them as the main seasoning to the
reform dishes with which they expect to
restore poor invalided Louisiana to health
and strength. Such condiment is depict
ing, not Iourishing.

NOT VERY HOPEFUL,

Mr.. Egan was not very sanguine Of sue
cess when he made his long and rather
prosy speech before a Monroe audience.
He cites an illustration from Cooper,
which, by the way, we do not remember
having seen in the Leather Stocking
tales, as applicable to the case in point:
l am reminded that Cooper, in his
Leather Stocking" makes his hero dis
cuss by his bivOuac in the woods those con-
tests in which we are all occasionally en-
gagged in life. That plain hero uttered
sentiment which you might well adopt upon
this as well as upon all occasions, but l
trust with no occasion for its application
now. His idea was, that whenever he
thought he was right he would always give
the enemy tUssle. even if he knew he was
going to get whipped.
Of course, if Mr.. Egai is anxious to be
beaten, he has nothing to do but to give
the enemy tus5le." But, unfortunately,
whatever Messrs. Fennimore Cooper and
Egan may think Of the matter, mankind
in general do not care to be found on the
losing side. AS soon as it becomes a
reasonable certainty that the battle is lost,
the best Of veteran soldiers will retreat,
unless there are such fools as the 300
Spartans that attempted to fight Xerxes
army of nearly a million. But that sort
Of history does not often repeat itself
After the Tammany money comes retreat
Will probably be sounded.

TIE PEOPLE NOTWITHSTANDING.

1t has until recently been an unquestion-
able article of faith in the Democratic
creed, that the people are the source of all
authori v 1t is a doctrine, indeed, shared
by all parties, and recognizedjn this coun-
try as the basis of government. But it is
now an axiom no longer indisputable, if a
conclusion may be inferred from the action
Of The Democratic and Reform committees.
The power of the people, according. to
these new political lights, is not original,
but confrmatory. These committees have
assumed a prerogative hitherto resident
with the people alone; that Of selecting the
public rulers,

Old Muddlebrains says the city war
rants and certificates of Indebtedness are
the most dangerous frauds perpetrated
against the prosperity Of our city. When
it is known that he and the troupe Of pol
iticians to which he belongs, by resisting
the payment Of taxes, have created the
necessity for paying of the city employees
in this manner, is it not clear that they are
acting, for a political purpose, very dis
creditably in the matter? Is it not very
clear that their conduct has caused the
necessity for that course which is now pro-
nounced by Muddlebrains to be danger
Gus fraud? And is it not still more clear
that they have political object in pro
nouncing acts of the city government a
fraud, and that in doing so they mean to
injure the credit Of the city and the value
Of its warrants and certificates Of indeJt-
edness that have fallen into the hands Of
men that are not able to hold them? These
are matters that must appear clear to all
who will properly investigate them. But
what does MUddleJrains and his political
friends care what harm they do to the city
or It's employees? Their object is to get
possession Of the city government, and
for this purpose they would poison the
minds of the people against those who are
now clothed with authority; and to do
this they DO not hesitate to destroy the
credit of the city.

Mr.. F. c. Zacharie informs us that his
attention has been called by his friends to
the following paragraph in the REPUB-
LIcAN of Wednesday. And, further, they
favored him with their opinion that he Is
intended to be included in the category
of political .blackleg5."
We will not, however, grow too serious
upon this subject. for we have not the
slightest idea that Mr.. Zacharie and the
gentlemen with him in the last ditch"
movement know anything about the real
manner in which the funds of the Liberal
party for election purposes are to be dis
posed of. The history of the political
blacklegs who have been gambling to get
the ascendency in this State is just as well
known among intelligent men i'll the North
and other sections of our country as here;
and for that reason we know it to be utter
ly impossible for the faction that is acting
here in the name of the Democratic party
to achieve any success by their deception.
AS the article in question was simply
considering a question in which Mr..
Zacharie was a witness, not a party; as we
do not know him to be political leader,
or candidate, or even a member of the
Democratic or Reform committee, we GER
tainly did.not mean to include him in the
sense his very astute friends suppose, or
pretend to suppose We did. On the con-
trary, we are not sufficiently acquainted
with Mr., Zacharie to give him any sort of
political classification. He may be Lib
eral for aught we know, although his
opinions have an apparent lean fayoring
the Last Ditchers. In short, we did not
mean to call him a political blackleg, or
to cast any reflections upon him, person
ally, at all
