IN the nature Of a political speech. With
out combining himself to a denial OF
the charge, or an assent thereto, the mem
Der from Indiana entered into an elaborate
statement Of the reasons why he ought not
to vote for Mr.. Greeley, without once
saying that he would not do so. This was
a very useless explanation, in our esti-
nation, since it only established as cor
rect the report of his hating and hest
tating position. AS we understand, it, Mr..
Voorhees, merely put upon the country the
expense Of printing a speech on his behalf
to this effect, that he halted and hesitated
about supporting Mr.. Greeley, and would
continue to do so until the National Demo-
cratic Convention instructed him in the
premises, and then he would cease to halt
and hesitate any longer. If the Demo
cracy told him to vote for Greeley, he
would do so, and if it told him not to do
so, he would still obey. This did not re-
quire any personal explanation. The
great body of the Democratic party holds
that exact position at present, and since
individuals do not choose to put them
selves to the expense Of explaining their
situation, we do not see why Mr.. Voor-
hees should put the nation to any expense
in the matter Of defining what we all
know beforehand,

THEY ARE NOT HAPPY.

The Democrats of New Orleans do not
constitute happy family as matters now
stand, and the prospect promises but
poorly for peace and concord. Personal
ambitions will creep in to divide the
brotherhood, and the ''dear people" are
wholly forgotten in the caucusings for
official preferment. We do not accuse
anyone of a willingness to sacrifice prin-
oiple for Office, but it is really wonderful
how many of our worthy fellow-citizens,
both Democrats and Reformers, are tightly
bound up with the conviction that only
through their individual selection for GER
tain offices can the State be saved and the
reform millennium realized.
May not the determination arrived at
last Friday evening, however, tend to al
lay the irritation of the Democratic cutiele
and concentrate the divergent elements
into powerful effort that may give prom
Use of accomplishment? Will the friends
of General Gibson, Colonies Eustis and
Waggaman, and Of the several other as
pirants for gubernatorial honors who have
been so carefully and successfully excluded
from the preliminary deliberations, acqui-
esee in the conclusions arrived at, and sup
port them? These are questions which to
US are of the highest Importance, and
which, for several days, we have patiently
awaited information upon from our Demo-
cratic contemporaries. VIII the plan to
make Mr.. Spencer, of Concordia, Cover
nor, and Mr.. Jonas, Of Orleans, Lieuten-
ant Governor, be acceptable to and
adopted by the convention Are the con-
kilograms and letters which
have been sent to the gentleman whom
''the parishes must and shall back" pre-
mature or not? Who will give us light,
who clear this Democratic muddle

who enter the opposition must consent to
be condemned for their antecedent con-
duct If it was sin to advocate the re-
construction laws, it is equally a sin to
have opposed them once and now to ac-
cept OF them. If it was wrong in Mr..
Greeley to advocate the war, it was equally
wrong in Mr.. Voorhees, and his Demo
cratic constituents to do the same thing; if
we are to forget the latter we must also
forget the former. The past is dead-the
future Is before US. The evils of the one
may not be recalled, but the benefits of
the other may be made to repay us for
what we have lost.

The removal of Casey from the collec-
tor8hip, like CottOn's apology and Eel
lows backdown, is another indication OF
the honesty and integrity Of Governor
Warmoth. His enemies thought to over
whelm and destroy him by means of a
partisan committee which they had ap-
pointed. The combined Democratic and
Customhouse State committees arraved
themselves against him, and spared neither
money nor labor to impeach his honor.
Their efforts signally failed, and while ex-
culpating him from suspicion of wrong
doing, the projectors of the plot are
crushed by the recoiI of their own weapon

PUBLICAN, WEDNESDAY, MAY Is, 1872.

The Bee joins in with Messrs. Cotton
and Fellows in the work Of maliciously
defaming the Governor of Louisiana.
There is no more truth in its assertion that
Governor Warmoth was 'the prime mover
in all the corrupt schemes Of legislation
which have oppressed our people" than
in Fellows mammoth bribery yarn. The
veto of every corrupt measure which did
not pass by vote that would render a
veto useless is fact that confronts and
refutes the busy Bees reckless charge, and
a fact that the people now know by heart

Citizens Guard says they did, and takes
great credit to itself for having once been
found In respectable company. Now,
which tells the truth? Anyway, if the
Bee found no discredit in associating with
such men as Burch, Ingraham and Pack
ard, gentleman like Mr. Fergus Gardere
could not soil its purity very much by in
wiling it to his following.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

Stimulated by favorable sounds from the
great oracle across the water, which sent
hither the news Of an advance in Orleans Of
5-l6d, the cotton market woke up from its
former lethargy, and before noon the sales
had reached 1000 bales. Prices were all in
favor of sellers, Buyers chances were
slim. Then, when factors have IN
loaded, and the hunger of machinery for
the staple is quelled, it may be predicted
the market will again lapse into an easy
stage, and wear its business like an old
shoe.

yet who are not enthusiastic on the sub

explain WarmOth's insignifcance in the

1t is the browning glory of the cOnven-

regulations, who came here hoping to be
influential in its councils, discovered very
shortly that they were in an uncOngenial
atmosphere, and subsidized. The retirement
of some men from places they had thrust
themselves in at the front is one OF the
marked features Of the convention"

We see no reference in the paragraph
quoted to Governor Warmoth. The apti-
tude of the description to the Guards own
insignifcance, doubtless, inspires the idea,
since it is popularity of those who are
mean, low and dirty, to imagine others as
contemplate as themselves. The Guard,
however, is mistaken, or rather, it has
glided into its usually understandable habit
Of lying. The paragraph had reference to
the emissaries of Grant, who beset the

The support Of Mr.. Greeley for the
Presidency, growing daily more enthusi-
astic, is the strongest possible indication
of the spread of liberal views and enlight-
ened public opinion. It is an efectual
rebuke to the sectional hatreds so persis-
tently kept alive by the present admins
tratiOn. Under his rule we will have no
need Of Ku-Klux laws; no martial law in
peaceful communities; no federal officials
to superintend elections; no general order
business, with army officers to control it;
and the foreign missions of the govern
ment confded to ignorant and illiterate
relations, for whom some sort of provi-
sion must be made. The civil service
will undergo publication and the govern
ment itself be conducted on principles of
craftsmanship and political economy.
These are reforms that can never be pro-
cured while General Grant directs the
destinies of the nation.

A fearful grimalkin has made its appear
ance before the double-barreled organ on
Charities street, and it says at once that it
knows, and exposed long ago, the bag out
which this fretfll feline made its escape.
The speeches of Messrs. Fuqua, Heron
and Gardere, of Baton Rouge, have
afforded the Bee this narrowing appari-
ton, and it solemnly announces that a
sense Of the impending catastrophe per-
vaded its duplex anatomy weeks in adj
vance of the occurrence Of the event itself
There are sensitive creatures of this sort,
we know, that are so delicately organized
as to be able to act as nervous barometers
of political storms. They are usually
very weak institutions, however, diseov-
ering events by a tremuIousness of the
fbrous system, rather than by any of that
prophetic logic which enables the
Picdy1aae to solve the horoscope of the
future. The dullest man in the country
saw months ago the very results which the
Bee now relates as wonder of the day
that revealed itself by strange psychological
influences to its resisting soul What
Messrs. Fuqua, Heron and Gardere an
nounced at Baton Rouge last Saturday has
been the talk of the State foran entire year.
And now we are told it is new and
strange thing. The Bee says it is scat
ont of bag, and the Picayptne announces
that it is prophetic logic" of its own
manufacture. What do you say it is?
