The Hon. James G. Blaine has
written a letter 10 Senator Sumner
in reference to his (Sumner's) letter
to the colored citizens. The letter
at the outset says: Your letter
published in the papers ofthis morn.
ing will create profound pain and
regret among your former political
friends throughout New England,
Your power to injure General
Grant was exhausted in your re-
markable speech in the Senate
your power to irjure yourself was
not fully exercised until you an
nounccd open alliance with the
Southern seccsSionists in their efforts
to destroy the Republican party.
The writer then Asserts that Gree
ley would be powerlcss to enforce
any policy against the will Of Con-
gre@, and concludes by assuring
Sumner sllat the colOred men will
not follow him or Greeley in their
support ofthe Democratic party.

'The diaInoid h The hardest Of
knownmilhIAlS, and the most va!-
liable Of precious stones. Cllcni-
caly speaking, it is composed Of
nearly rure carlson. It is found
chrystalized in forms mostly derived
from the octoledron. Freed from
its primal covering Of thin, brown.
lsh, opaque crust, il is generally
colorless, but is sometimes found
tinged with red, orange, yellow,
brown, and black. Formerly the
most celebrated mines were those Of
Coco. .da, aud Of Rochilcaua, in
India. Since then, until tie re-
cent discovery Of the mines in
Southern Africa, the mines OF
Miuas Geraes,in Brazil have produc-
cd most of the stones imported into
Europe and America. Since the
discovery Of the diamond fields il
Africa, hundreds Of adventures
have hocked thitller from this coun.
try and Europe, and fabulous for
tunes are said to have been made.
Recently diamonds were reported
to have been found in Arizona, as
well as n,bies and emeralds. On
tile strength of this a Diamond
Company was formed at San Fran
cisco, and not long since the agent
Of this Company, Mr.. Janin,
brought 100000 worth Of dia-
monds from the diggings to San
Francisco and four pounds weight Of
rubies, emeralds and sapphires. The
agent says this entire lot was wash
cd out Of a ton and q halfof gravel.
Most Of thed diamonds weigh OILY one
carat, and the largest, which weighs
1903 carats, is too dark to Ike Of
much value. The sapphires are
some Of them as large as pigeons
eggs The agent, Janin, says that
he can make a million dollars per
month in the diggings. Thousands
of people were rushing into a room
in San Francisco, where these
precious stones were being displayed
on the 1St inst, to look at them.
The Diamond CompanY's stock
was being offered for $40 per
share. The Company claims TO
have 1900 acres Of gravel, which
it says will pay halt q gallon Of
diamonds to the ton. The fact
that this is being sold at only $40
per sLar, or 100000, excites
suspicion that there may be a "col-
orcd gemmcO in the wood pile"

II may be confidently expected
that the opposition will resort to
every Invention and trick which
hold ont q promise Of aid to their
ticket. The Democracy, Of which
the opposition is almost entirely
composed in this State, is a skillfnl
political trickster, cup to snuff" in
its knowledge Of and ability to use
the most improved devices and
.hams intended TO gull the people I;
and as the present campaign is one
that will draw out and enlist all of
this talent, q very artistic perform
ance in this direction may be looked
for. One Of the things out of which
i is now culeavoring to make
mnch capital, is the changes
reported from Grant to Greeley.
The trick in this consists in getting
as long o list as possible, no matter
how or where, and representing it as
indicating the change in one local.
ity. The San Francisco Chronicle,
as We understood it, printed list
Of names pnrporting TO represent
Grant Republicans who had gone
over to Greeley, who were selected
regardless Of location. Opposition
Journals here print and comment On
the list, representing the names as
belonging toprominent Republicans
afSan Francisco aud hence, the great
revolution! OF course, there are
here and there to beEound in a State
like California, . renegade Rcpub-
lican. II would be very strange ln-
deed If il were not so; and when
they are all brought together, and
published in one list, the number
appears large, and the revolution
serious, If charged to one Commu-
nifty or city ; but as representing the
rumber in q State, the list would
appear contemplate, and it would
lie quite foolish to speak Of it as in
dicating q revolution. As o test Of
the greatness Of the revolution said
to be going on in the Republican
rarty In favor Of Greeley, let the
readers Of this article look around
them at rome, and count tile num-
bcr tllcp that havo changed from
Grant to Greeley. That will fnrn-
ish o lair index by which to esti.
mate tie changes said by these hum
bngging journals to be transpiring

reform aud amnesty became tie chief
topics OF discussion. But about tie
time they were engaged in wrang-
ling on these, our Republican Rep.
reentatives in Congress passed .
bill amnestying every rebel who
bore arms against the Government,
save about a hundred Of the bitter
est and most uireInntant among
the leaders. Such men as jeff
Davis, Stevens AID Toombs, we've
not amnestied. because they were
uurcpentant, did not ask Tor it, aud
the Republican party was not dis
posed to grant iayors to men who
were still jastifyipg their treason
and reasonable acts. Those who
nominated Greeley ard Brown,
however, and those who now en-.
dorse them, are very alxions to
have this class Of unrepcntant,
blatent rebels amncstied. Remove
every restriction from these men
whether they wish it or not, is tho
position they take. Why do they
wish the restriction removed from
such men as left Dayisand ToombS?
Is it because they desire to have
them vote? No; because they
vote already. That privilege has
not been taken from them. The
reason why they want these leading
rebels amneStied, is because they
want them with all of their treas

Davis, and Toombs, and Brecker-
ridge, and Stephens, in the United

a source Of SO much qualification to

a GREAT MISTAKE

The squad of Last Ditchers who are en-
doayoring to palm themselves off as the
Democratic party of this State, make a
great mistake if they really think their
attempted deception Will afford them the
slightest success. If, as F. G. Zacharie is
reported to have said at a meeting Monday
evening, the national Liberal organization
had determined to give the quota Of Lou
isiana in the campaign fund to the Demo-
cratic party it is not possible that the
intelligent men to whom are intrusted the
business affairs of the Liberal party would
pay this money into the hands of any but
those who are the Acknowledged repre-
sentadves of the Democracy here.
The last ditchers, representing but
fraction of the old Democratic party of
this State, are acting in opposition to the
will of a very large majority of that party,
now in accord with the Liberal move
ment 1t is true this fraction of what
was once known as the Democratic party
pretends to support Greeley and Brown.
But when it is known that their support
is given in manner that is calculated to
defeat the standard bearers Of the Liberal
party, the motive thatprompts such action
is too transparent to receive encourage
ment at the hands of those who are in
trusted with the best interests Of the
peoples party.
Thrust be recoIlected that the faction
now acting in the name Of the Democratic
party of this State has not an atom of
right to do 50. Its pretended authority to
speak for the Democratic party is derived
from fractions Of two committees called
into temporary existence by conventions
rlghtfully representing tie Louisiana De-
mocracy. These conventions having re-
fused to delegate the authority necessary.
Tor the action since taken by fractions of
the Democratic and Reform committees
to all intent5 and purposes the same.
although they have had different roles to
playa faction, speaking in the pama Of
the Democratic party, arrogates. to itself a
right that can only belong to the majority
the right of determining the action of a re-
cognized political party. With the hope
Of deceiving the Liberals this faction pre-
tends to support Greeley and Brown; but
this support is given in way that is cal
ouloted to insure defeat unless the great
body Of Liberal voters. in this State will
suecum0 to the. usurpations Of a faction
and support the.electors1 and State tickets
it has put forth. Admitting that Liberal
| success could only be achieved in this wav
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-07-24

next fall, the example would be bad one.
Iswould be rewarding the efforts of fac
ton and striking at the same time a serious
blow at vital principle of republican
government rule of the majority.
But we do not admit that this
is the only way open for the
success Of the Liberal ticket; nor do we
concede much Importance to the faction
that is attempting to make Democratic
victory the result of the election of Gree
ley and Brown, and with it the restoring
of this State to ultra Democratic rule.
This is certainly not the intention of the
patriotic masses who are rallying to the
standard of the Liberal party all over this
great nation. The movement is of far
more significance than mere partisan sue
cess. It signifies a return of brotherly
love; of kindly feeling among a people ad-
vanced in civilization and the art of gov
eminent; return to that pure and patri-
otic condition which enabled our ancestors
to endure 50 much for the sake of country
and good government. It was the thought
of these things that prompted the great
and good men of our country to move for
a national convention in Cincinnati It
was there that men more devoted to coun-
try than party met and determined to re
dress the wrongs that fierce and selfish
partisan spirit had visited upon the peo-
pie. They assembled as patriots; not as
Democrats or Republicans; but as men
determined to check the evil tendencies of
political parties in this country
Therefore, when Mr. Zacharie tells the
people of this State that the Democratic
party of Louisiana is regarded in the
North as the true exponent of Greeley
and Brown here, we are inclined to doubt
the correctness of his authority for such
an assertion. But if he should be correct,
and it has been determined that Louisi-
ana's quota in the Liberal campaign fund is
to be given to the Democratic party of
Louisiana, then, in the name Of patriot
ism and justice, let the majority determine
who are the authorized representatives of
the resurrected party. We will not, how
ever, 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 disposed Of The history of the
political blacklegs who have been gam
bling to get the. ascendency in this State
is just as well known among intelligent
men in the North and other sections of
our country as here; and for that reason
we know it 10 be utterly I'M ossible for
the faction that IS acting here in the name
Of the Democratic party to achieve any
success by their deception. If they think
50, we repeat they make great mistake
