Pilot Backing Water.

The coolest thing which has been done
for many day was the undertaking of
the Pilot to raise a point of extravaganza
on the Democratic members of the Legis-
lature, in Its issue of Saturday, as fol-
lows:
Our Democratic friends are noted of late
for their continual cry against extravaganza
and unnecessary expenditures in State man
agement. Yet, yesterday, the Democratic
members of the Senate voted solidly for
appropriating some eleven thousand dollars
for the relief OF Spencer l.. Boatner and the
minor heirs of John NJ. Lyle, a former
foundation tchGteUer, in IdGo or equity, against
the State Instead of
holding the bOndsmen responsible for dam
ages. the Democratic members of the Senate,
and Jetc Republicans, voted to pay some
eleven thousand dollars, for which the State
was in no way responsible, legally, morally,
or otherwise, as we understand it. This is
the way the money goes.
In less than twenty-four hours the
Pilot found that il had run the Radical
craft among the breakers; it proceeded
to crawfish in the most approved style,
as follows:
In an article yesterday. on the subject Of
the bill for the relief of S. l.. Boatner. and
the heirs ofJohn NJ. Lyle, which passed the
Senate, we observed that few Republi-
cans voted for it. We learn to-day that all
OF the Republican members Of the Senate voted
for it except one

We have seen it stated that this gen.

form Convention which nominated the
Davis and Parker ticket. If so, there
was at least one representative man of the
industry, intelligence and conservatism
of Mississippi in the Convention. Gen.
West is one of her most pubhc-spirited
and enterprising citizens. He has not
mingled in politics to any considerable
extent since the war but if the Reform
and Conservative elements of the coun-
try should concentrate upon the candi-
dates of the Laboring Men so as to make
thier success a possible aehievement, he

From the n. Y. World.
The Democratic Party and the
Presiden tIaI Contest.

While we approve the zeal, we cannot
quite indOrse the judgment, of some impul-
sive Democrats who are not satisfied with
the reticent, eXpectant attitude which has
thus far been maintained by the great bod v
Of the party. including the National DEM
ocratic Committee and its cool, sagacious
Chairman. Nothing'could be more deplo-
rable, at present, than a spasmOdic. ag-
gressive activity. At a time when events
ana the whole drlft Of politica. tenuencies
are operating In our favor, the party would
make capitalblunder II IL should take any
step, or attempt any movement. which
might interfere With the spontaneous de-
velopment of public sentiment.
IL Is all-impOrtant In the present stage Of
affairs, that inapulsive party zeal be kept
under the restraint Ct sober judgment and
foresight. II Is never wise TO buy ia a fall
ing. or sell in a rising market. IL would
not be enterprise, but folly, for a merchant
TO purchase a cargo Of tea when the price OF
tea Is steadily declining; nor on the other
hand, TO make heavy sales when the price
was steadily rising. Everything both inside
and outside OF the Democratic party j. just

Another equally strong reason for avoid

This feeling is gaining strength day by day

Louisiana Politics

Radicalism is in a bad way in Louisi
ana. Gov. Warmoth testifes that the
federal officials who represent the Grant
Administration ARE engaged in all sorts
of corrupt schemes. Casey made it a
point to get an interest in all companies
which have obtained privileges from the
Legislature. Among the bills in which
he is interested were the levee bill, the
levee shed bill and the workhouse bill. ("
And Warmoth further testifes that the
opposition to Grant will increase at the
South unless he changes his course. If
the Cincinnati Convention act wisely
(says Warmoth) its nominees will receive
the support of Louisiana"
The n. o. Republican, the official
organ of the Louisiana Radicals, corrob-
nrates these statements and says that
nothing but united Republican party
''can secure this State for Grant. There
sis nothing more certain than this; and
''Gs things look eolo that is merit to impossi
''ble."
These divisions would encourage the
confident hope of carrying the State for
the anti-Radical candidate in the Presi-
dental election but for the discord which
prevails among the advocates of Reform.
They are quarreling among themselves
and are in danger of rejecting the prize
of an easy victory. which fortune is hold
ing out to them.

Newton County Special Election
What ft Means.

I
We had the satisfaction recently to
announce the election of Thomas M.
Scanlan, Esq, to the Office of Circuit
Clerk of Newton county by large ma
jority. The election of Mr. Seaman is
significant from his having been pro-
minent victim of Radical persecution.
The story of his Incarceration in this city,
for political causes, is familiar to the
public. The people who have known
him from childhood have resented the
outrage by Fastening to confer upon him
one of the best offices within their gift.
His election has another meaning,
which is thus given by the Newton
Ledger:
The people of Newton county. by their
action on last Monday. announced in thun-
der tones that so far as this county in con-
cerned no man need offer himself as a can
didate for official honors at the expense of
the Nominee of the Democratic party.
The Ledger states that Mr.. Reynolds,
who was voted for as an Independent,
disavows all responsibility for the unen-
viable position in which he was placed
by his Radical supporters.
After all, Newton county has been
selected by the powers that ibE as the
scene for the display of their most I'M
and unrelenting hostility, and
what has it gained them but the united
and incorporating opposition of the
and patriotism of the county
These vindictive prosecutions are costing
the Radical party dearly.

The Hurry i'm the BeIk Case.
From the Meridian Gazett,

The Pilot in noticing an article from The
CLARION on the jury in the Belk case, has
the hardihood to say: ~as to the politics of
the jury We know nOthing-we presume,
however, that men of both parties were of
the number"
Is it possible that the Pilot is ignorant of
the tact that not only the jury in the Belk
case, but that all the iuricS, grand and pitt
that were permitted to serve at the late
term of the District Court were Radicals of
the most vindictive md preiudiced charac-
ter! a viler crew were never assembled
politics, and il Democrat was summoned
in any instance, by mistake, he was not per-
mitted TO serve. Even fair minded UMPIRE
JutAced Radicals were not summoned. The
OBJECT was to get jury that would convict
with or without testimony and in this the
District Attorney was eminently success
full.
To this may be added the declaration
of the Prosecuting Attorney that he
would object to any man serving as
juror who belonged to any secret politi-
cal organization opposed to the Radical
party, while he at the same time found no
objection to members ofthe oath-bound or
der known as Loyal or Union Leaguers.
We viii venture to say that majority,
If not the entire jury as organized, was
composed of this partisan clan.

AT the instance of Superintendent
Pease, the printing bill reported by the
special committee, was amended in the
Senate by the addition of clause en-
bodying the special act of 1871, which
provides, that ''all the printing for the
Department of Education shall be done
'by the proprietor of the Educational
"JournaP-Mr. Pease being the "pro-
''prietor" aforesaid. As an example of
the abuse to which this law is liable, we
have only to cite the voluminous report
just printed and submitted to the Legis-
lature by the Superintendent. The
amendment does not require him to give
bond as in the case of the State printer,
and authorizes him at his own discretion
to do whatever printing he may deem
necessary for his own department
therefore to approve and audit his own
claims-thus throwing wide open the
door for the grossest abuses. The SUI
perintendent receives compensation for
his services which is supposed to be suffi-
Gent. Can the majority in the Legisla-
ture afford to adopt character of legisla-
ton so liable to abuse and so manifestly
for individual benefit?
