Frank Confession.

A farmer from Oxford county, Maine,
went down to Portland, for the pur
pose of purchasing a yoke Of oxen, as
he had been informed that there was a
lot of very fine stock for sale by one of
the wealthy land owners of the place,
Arri1 ed in the best farming district Of
the Cumberland county town, our
friend met a man driving an OK team,
of whom he inquired, "Can you in
form me where Mr.. Wall lives 2"
"There's number Of Walls live
around here. Which one did you wish
to find7" returned the stranger, who
was shortly-built, keen-eyed man,

fixed by the constitution and laws of
the United States and by the consti-
tuition and laws of this State shall be
considered settled and irrevocable.
1t is distinctly understood that this
movement is confined to the politics of
our own State. AS a party, we will
not meddle with Federal affairs. We
do not ask the colored people to break
up their rational Republican organiza
ton; nor do we call upon those of
the white population who still adhere
to the national Democracy, to sever
that political bond. We simply invite
every good citizen, whether white OF
black, to unite with us in an honest
and earnest effort to save our common
State in the next election. Surely
there is no incompatibility. Good men
may differ as to national policy, and
yet cordially unite in order to protect
their State from plumber.
A party formed in this way and
bearing upon its banner the simple
inscription '.justice and confidence"
will sweep the State at our next cleo
ton, and inaugurate new era in our
affairs.
1t is for the purpose Of adopting a
platform in consonance with these
principles, that VIC beg you to send
delegates to the Convention which will
meet in New Orleans on the 23d day of
April, 1872. After a platform of prn-
ciples shall have been agreed upon, the
Convention will have devolved upon
it the important work of electing a
suitable State ticket. That ticket must
represent the people as they stand to-
day, and the principle Of equality be
fully recognized.
The necessity for new organization
at this time, is manifest. The great
and sudden changes which have re-
Gently taken place in the peculiar in
situations of the South, and the manner
in which these changes were wrought,
left the two great national parties, so
far as Louisiana was concerned, diyid-
ed more upon issues offeeling and pre-
JUDGE than of abstract reason. The
consequence was, that tho contests
waged between those parties in refer
ence to our local concerns; had in
them more of bitterness than is ordi-
narily the case. So that now it would
be impossible, in our opinion, to unite
the adherents of these parties under
either name. The party we are now
Pennington home purpose-will not
in truth be third party; tor unless
we read badly the signs of the times, it
will unite all honest men, and leave as
the only Issue, that of virtue against
vice. We believe also that history
will bear us out in the assertion that
whenever such conjuncture of affairs
has arisen as now exists in Louisiana,
a new party has necessarily emerged,
through which thepeople have redeem
ed their State.
This committee therefore earnestly
recommends that the people of each
parish proceed promptly to organise
themselves into clubs, and that every
effort be made to, send representative
men to tile convention. Your commit
tee would further recommend that the
great principle of equality in represen,
tation be kept constantly in mind; ard
that as nearly as possible the conven,
ton be composed in equal proportions
from the two races.
| We append hereto the apportion
ment of representation made by the
committe. THos. KENNEDY,
President.

Country Press on the Third Party
Movement.

The OdSchita Telegraph, published
at Monroe, thus speaks of the Third
Party movement proposed by the COM
mittee of Fifty-one:
These gentlemen have not consider
ed, We opine, so much the labor neces-
sary to organize new party and har-
monte the best elements of the conn
try, as the mere novelty of starting a
new political organization. They have
not reelected that in each Parish they
must be seconded and assisted by in
fluential men who are to give local di-
rection to politics, and to organize
clubs and committees. They have not
reflected that their strength must ne
cessarily come from the Democrats,
who are 10th to admit that men who
will not register, and will not work,
are the kind of men to build up party
and carry State. They have not re-
flected that the country is educated by
sad experience to view with distrust
all political movements originating in
New Orleans. They seem to have
considered that National politics may
be brushed from the forum of State
politics by mere word, when it is
known that the pungent and barbed
arrows of political discussion will PEN
citrate their armor at every drawing Of
the bow.
Where is the need of this so-called
Reform Party of the Fifty-onef 1t
will be answered, that, to secure re-
form, we must secure Republican votes,
and that to this We must organize
new partyf We reply, that the move
ment proposed, is, we are satisfied,
distasteful to the Carterites, and, il
agreeable to Warmotll, it is repnlsive
to the good people of the State. In
this, then, the plan is impracticable
but not only in this, but it is much
more so in the matter of an alliance
of any kind with Republicans that will
prove acceptable to the bulk of the
white people of The State. Who are

Newspaper Patronage.

We call the attention of our readers
to the following disquisition on the
subject by one who knows whereof lie
speaks. 1t will serve, perhaps, as a
mirror in which certain parties may
"see themselves as others see them -
Newspaper patronage is a word of
many definitions, and that a great ma
jority of mankind are either ignorant
OF the correct definition, or are dishon-
est, in strict biblical sense of the
word. Newspaper patronage is COM
posed of as many colors as the rain
bow, and as changeable as cameloon.
One man comes in and subscribes for a
paper, and pays for it in advance, and
goes home and reads it, with the proud
satisfaction that it is his. He hands in
his advertisement, asks the price, pays
for it, goes to his place of business, and
reaps the advantages thereof. This is
patronage.
Another man asks you to send him
the paper and goes off without saying
word about the pay. Time passes
on, and you are in need of money, and
ask him to pay the sum he owes You.
He flies into passion, perhaps pays,
perhaps not, and orders his paper
stopped. This is called patronage
Another man has your paper for long
time, becomes tired of you and wants
a change. Thinks he will have anoth-
err paper. But he don't pay OH, no
he has to keep your money to buy an
other paper. Pay comes when you
sue him. This is called newspaper
patronage.
Another man don't take your paper
1t is too high priced-but he borrows
regularly and reads it. All that could
be called newspaper patronage. One
man likes the paper; he takes a copy
and pays for it, and gets his friends to
do the same he is not always grum-
bling to you or others, but has a friend
word. If an accident occurs in his Sec
ton, he informs the editor. This is
newspaper patronage.
Another man has taken the paper
several years, but has not paid for it,
and in he comes with an advertisement
which he wants inserted free, because
he is can old patron" This is called
patronage. One hands you marriage
or other notice aud asks for extra
copies of the paper containing it, and
when you ask him to pay for the pa.
pers, he looks surprised-you surely
don't take pay for such small matters
That is called newspaper patronage
One man, it is good to see such
comes i'll and says, "The year for which
paid is about to expire, I want to pay
for another" He does 80 and retires
This is newspaper patronage Now
isn't newspaper patronage a curious
thing7 In that great day when the
gentleman in black gets his dues-a
he surely will-how many Of the pat
rons enumerated above will fall to llis
share While it will be seen thai
while certain kinds of patrons are the
very life and existence of newspapers
there are other kinds of patronage tina
are more destructive than the "deadly
night shade"
