There seems to be no hope, even in fusion
with the Liberal party, for fair registration
IN the pending election. We have fully realiz-
ed here in that respect ere,s thus far, the bitter
fruits of the last two State elections in their
partisan control of the ballotbox. We are
led to appreliend from articles in the Picayunc
of last Tuesday morning, that we alone are not
to be the sufferers i'll the progressing admins
tratIen of our odious Election Law. We ex-
tract the following significant paragraphs
from an Article in the Picayune under the
above captions
In eus evening edition of yesterday we tuch-
ed upou this grave subject of registration. 1t
was impossible to resist the impulse to repel
even hint that in the conduct of the com
ing elections, State or parish, there is to be
anything but fair dealing. For four long
weary years the good people of this Strife have
been bowed down under the unspeakable
agony of fraudulent election laws and fraudu-
lent elections. 70 say that there has for one
msment been any voice heard through the
ballot box from those through whose toll, men
tai and physical. the means of carrying on
government is derived, would be mockery
Capital and intelligent industry have been but
the prey fthe indolent and the wretchedly de-
haucbed, until our people have almost become
desperate. Only the bayonet at the throat
could make it possible for an enlightened peo-
pie to bear SO much factitious misery, and were
it to continue there are tens of thousands who
would prefer death to the moral blight it nee
essarily brings. ~
In the interest of this people, we here record
in terms that cannot be mistaken: /. That
fraudulent manipulation of the ballot box has
brought us to the grief we now realize. 2.
That this paper has advocated fusion of all
conservative elements, with the abiding hope
of our people being thus able to do away with
the prime cause. IL we cannot succeed with
ont rcserting to the very villiany we have SO
long denounced, even in our dreams, the VIC
tory will be fearfully dear, for it will cost us
our own selfrespect. Part with this, and
there is nothing to content for with any rea-
sonable hope of success. = gs.
For ourself, we shall believe, and we shall
SO endeayor to make our readers believe, until
convinced by proof to the contrary, that Mr..
Stevensen's insinuation has no Foundation in
political truth; and flour belief should ever be
shaken by proof, we shall be found sternly op-
posed to policy not only morally wrong, but
politically suicidal. s=-s ~.

may be of interest to some of our people to
know that claims for cotton, seized by Treas

1865, must be fled prior to November I8, 1872.
It rot filed before that time, they will be for
ever barred After fling proof can be made.
