"EGign OF the DcmagOgucs."
The New York Ucr0'd has this to say
about the United States Senate:
Another day has been surrendered BY
the Senate to the dcmaeogues. Mr..
Conklin@ made brilliant and. in some
respects, Il necessary speech, and when
the senate adjourned Mr.. Schurz had
the floor; so we shall have another day
OF ~chur2, with intermittent attacks Of
sumner, most probably, and Morton
and the wild Upton. The debate has
taken 50 vide range that we should
not be surprised to see it continue to
the end OF the session. When "A debate
of This Kind begins it is like the Missis-
,ippi River breaking through lcvcc.

without thought. revision or care.
The above is well stated, but the con-
dilion and tendency so pointcdIy re-
marked is the Legitimate fruit OF Rad-
caIism-that spirit which teaches iidcli-
ty to party at the expense of the coun-
try. The President is absorbed with
his plans and schemes of personal az
and the labor in Congress
is all shaped with II view to the cmolu-
tucNts and spoils of Office. This is SO
palpabc that no one but blind man
can fail 10 see it.

The United states and Spain.

In the debate in the House of Repre-
scntativcs last week on the Appropria-
ton Bill, Mr.. Voorhees,, Of Indiana,
said:
lie spoke against it because it con-
tanned an appropriation for the consul
ut Havana. He spoke Of Spain as being
Il brutal, bloody power, against which
the Cubans rcyoltcd, being supported
therein by the synpathics of the people
of the United States. The struggle that
ensued in Cuba lasted three years and
was almost unparalleled. Although
Spain had in 1869 10000 soldiers in
Cuba and iifty-scven vessels Of war in
Cuban waters it was given out by the
State Department here that the struggle
was without position worthy OF no
tee
lie said that he did not speak for the
annexation of Cuba or tor the rccogni-
ton of her independence why the
United States allow Spain 10 insult the
American fac aud did not retaIiatr, was
more than he could say. lie had list
of eight peaceful American citizens who
had been shot in cold blood ~ tuDa,
and nineteen who are Ianguishing in
Cuban prisons. Others had property
coniiscalcd. The American name and
authority had been scorned and treated
with supreme contempt. He referred
to the execution Of students, and to the
last decree Of NalmaSeda. which, he
said, was one Of determination. Even
Door. disordcrcd Mexico had acknowl-
edged the bcllgerent rights Of the Gu
bans, while this country, with all its
boosted power, hearing the dogs of war
rending the flesh and crushing the bones
OF their victims, was silent 1t was q
sad, miserable spectacle, most pitt
full spectacle. And what made it worse
was that, within three months after the
first gun was fired on Fort Sumter,
Spain had recognized the belligcrcnt
rights of the Southern Coniederacy.

to the humble lisailccted: "Many Of
ilceholders have been corrupted with
the prevalent cant OF the party whip,
and need whipping back into the traces.
II Is notorious that persons favored
with the confidence and best gifts OF the
administration have been decidedly
shaky in their allegiance to the Repub-
lican organization that has made those
ingrates SO fat that they have kicked

patience and long suffering, and, as
we believe the largest liberty; but there

The Entertainment a. IdIewiId.


The entertainment given by the ladies of
st, Mary's Church, last night, was well at
tended, and resulted in the success that
usually follows the efforts of these artistic
providers of rural amusements.
The principal features of the entertain
meut at Idlewild are : First-The grand
floor for promenade and dancing, made of
the best tOngued and grooved cypress, Oc-
tagOnal in shape, lighted by eight large fes-
tOOns of gas jets, and of the same superb
cial area as the floor of the Odd Fellows
Hall. SecOnd-The booths for refresh
ments, arranged with exquisite taste and
surrounded with small tables, where par
ties may enjoy their suppers and ices in the
cOsiest of hooks without beng jostled by
crowds. Third-The dramatic entertain
ment, in beautiful pavilion. which is kept
up to the standard of the hrst nights per-
formance of "That Rascal Pat" will draw
larger crowds to the grounds than its walls
will contain. FOurGh-The music, ten per-

music in the city.
Assembled at Idlewild last evening might
be seen some of the most beautiful faces
and graceful forms. We especially noticed
a chaming blonde from the valley of the
and bright brunette from t he
st. Maur and st. Martin of Evangeline-
the latter chiefly excelling in the dance, the
former in everything that is pleasing and

WASHINGTON, June 4.-Ful1 Cabinet meet

tian Association, corner Ninth aud d streets.
There being some doubt of the Presiden-
tial sanction to the bill extending the time
for quieting the land claims in Louisiana,
General Sheldon received to-day assurances
that the bill would be approved.
The following, partially furnished and
partially compiled from conversations, is a
fair statement regarding the Louisiana dele
cation to Philadelphia, and their proceed
ings here: The Louisiana delegation wait
ed on the President to protest against the
removal of Colonel Casey. The delegates
urged that the case attempted to be made
out against the colonel was trivial, and to-
tally improved; that he was as a
treasury officer unassailed and unassail-
able; that it was the wish of the party that
he should be retained, and that the interest
of the party required his retention. The
address seemed to produce a great effect
on the President. He expressed great in
terest in the people of louisiana and ex-
pressed the hope, Independently of all party
issues, that good people might be selected
for office there. He intimated that the
Democrats were too good to be burdened
by WarmOth and Pinchback; that they
were riding two horses, and that both horses
would throw them.

The Urgent Duty of the Hour.

Translated from the German Gazette.
On Monday the Democratic and on Tues
day the Reform Conventions meet. On
these conventions will rest the responsible
ity of our success or defeat. The action Of
the Pinchback convention in adjOurning to
Baton Rouge on the same day the Custom
house convention meets there, shows
clearly that it is intended to join the two
conventions, and nominate a straight Re-
publican ticket, to which the support of all
the Republicans viii be secured by the
resolution which subOrdinates the national
or Presidential question TO that of carrying
the State for the Republican party.
The question is: Shall we rest quietly and
let these two wings of the Republican party
get together, or shall we prevent the june
ton by inducing the DemOFatic and Reform
conventions to cOalesce with the leaders of
the Liberal Republican movement, and
make ticket on which all persons opposed
to radicalism, Capitalization and Grant may
be combined? This can and ought to be
done.
The time has come now when we
feel it our duty to speak out plainly. The
desired coalition can not be secured with
out the aid of Governor WarnlOth and his
friends. 1t is impossible, and we might
just as well make up our minds to it. Cover
nor Warmotll's friends will not and can not
IL
tion of the State ticket We have seen
enough at the Pinchback convention to con-
vince us that WarmOth has yet a strong
party behind him. His strength is to be
found mainly in the country parishes, and
as an ally to the cause of reform he can
simply not be spared. That's the whole
truth.
While we at present can not see how he
could accept nomination at Baton Rouge,
unless Greeley and Brown were indOrsed
there. we do see that his friends will de-
mand of him the use of the power and ma
chinery, which they have placed in his
hands, to secure the election OF the ticket
they make. But we can not refuse to
cOalesce with him, and at the same
time ask him for his support. The
only sensible thing for us to do,
is to lay aside our prejudiees, nominate
him on our ticket, put on a Liberal Repub-
ican or two, and unite with the Democrats
and RefOrmers. In this way we can divide
the Republican party, elect Warmoth and
a good Legislature, send him to the United
States Senate, if the latter regards him fit
for it, and secure all the local reforms we
desire.
No other plan for carrying this State, or
even this parish, in the interest of reform
is possible, as every man of common sense
must admit.

The Vicksburg Times says;

We have been shown a dispatch from
Captain j. P. Harper, now in st. Louis,
stating that large force would leave that
city on Thursday, to work on the Vicks-
burg, Pensacola and Ship Island railroad.
We mentioned some time since that the
road had been put under contract, but the
starting of the force has been unavOidabIy
delayed. They VIII be here the latter part
be pushed with vigOr. With a fair pros
pect Of two new roads terminating in our
city, opening to our markets a vast scope
of country that has hitherto found outlet
in other directions, ought to be cause of
much cOngratulatiOn on the part of our
people.

This is from the Washington Chronicle.

Mr.. BOtassi, Greek consul at New York.
in communication to the Herald, denies
the report that seven criminals had been
shipped by the Greek government to New
Orleans upon the Italian ship AganemnOn.
Seven brigands we're guillOtined, and ship
ped to Davy Jones locker, which is in a
somewhat less agreeable locality than New
Orleans, and lies in a different direction.
Mr.. Botassi does not speak authoritativeIv.
but he adduces facts which seem to make it
impossible that the report should be true.
1t was hardly credible that the Greek gov
ernment would be guilty of such grave
discOurtesy to this country.
