party. But in this just expectation we
were mistaken, and instead of humbly and
contritely retiring to the obscurity they
have SO well earned, we find them wrapping
themselves in the mantle of the lamented
Dunn, who living to-day would have Bit
terly denounced them and their base
schemes, and assuming to speak authOri-
tatively in the name of people who have
repudiated and cast them off with unan-
unity thatis perhaps without a parallel.
The address is weakness itself, and,
taken as evidence of the present condi-
ton Of the boilers, is conclusive that only
their formal adoption as a branch of the
Democratic party will prevent their inl-
mediate disintegration and extinction as a
political faction in Louisiana. We do not
believe Messrs. Casenave and Marie are
its authors. but that tine document was
prepared for them. by the INSCRIPTIONS
members Of the Democratic Customhouse
league, under whose lead they are so I'M
fortunate as to be at present. If convinced
to the contrary, we must greatly lower Ollr
estimate of the discretion and veracity of
those gentlemen. After relash of the
reform pretexts with which these so-called
Republicans justify the sale of their party
TO the Democrats but without mentioning
that the true Republicans lett them far
behind in the ,corh; of reform. they
make the brazen and mendacious as
sertion that these reform measures
were their only bond of unity
with the Democrats. in face of the
published compact of their Senatorial
colleagues, which is mild compared with
the one entered into by themselves with the
Democratic committees, and to which
such pointed illusions were made in the
Senate by General Campbell. Deliberate
1alsification of events and omission Of
Others bearing against the views they
would have prevail denunciations of GER
tain Democrats who they declare were
false to their bargain. little faint praise
of themselves and coadjutors, and IA pitiful
appeal to colored men, which will meet
with contempt only, conclude this stupid
etfusion. We are heartily glad the con-
spirators felt thus impelled to attempt to
define their position. Itshows how weakly
wicked they have been. and how unscrrl-
pulous will be their endeavors to avert the
just consequences. The congressional
committee have the statement at hand,
and We hope will not delay in comparing
it with the truth. which can be had with
equal readiness

Being justly frightened at the exposure
Of their plots, which thorough investi-
cation by the congressional committee
must develop, the Customhouse clique
have striven hard for the proverbially IA
vorable first impression. Casey, Carter,
Packard Il Co., in conjunction with Mayor
Flanders, last Friday dispatched to Grand
Junction a welcome to the members, ten

nounced that they had secured apartments

distinguished visitors and all their belong
ings. from their corns to their consciences.
But the best laid plans of even these great
big mice gang aft a9lee, and this one was
not an exception. The committee came
by the Southern route, via Montgomery
and Mobile. and received the first intillr,-
ton of the attentions that were to have
been thrust upon them, while snuSly en-

ROUNDABOUT WHIPPING

If piece of oratuitous information will
not offend the nostrils of the Washington
Patriot. We propose to inform it that the
Republican party is not responsible for
the government by pronunciamento' that
was attempted in Louisiana, but, on the
contrary, and as usual. the Democrats
We're the guilty introduccrs Of that Mex
lean fashion into this community. and
must be held accountable for whatever dis
grace attaches thereto. And as the DEM
ocrats have done such things before, and
since they have not repented thereof in
any public fashion that we know of, it
necessarily follows that the Patriot was
either whipping them over the shoulders
Of their opponents, or it was stupidity ig-
norant, when it charged that the Repub-
lican party was guilty in the disgraceful
matter Of attempting to upset the legal
government of the State of Louisiana by
a regular Mexican pronunciamento And
as the Patriot is tolerably shrewd Dem
ocratic organ, We charitably assume in its
behalf that it knew the truth, but resorted
to the ruse of charging the revolution
against its enemies, in order to obtain a
splendid opportunity to chastise its friends
for a grievolls mistake.

A LAST DESPERATE RESORT.

The Democratic and Customhouse or
CANS. witha unanimity that shows identity
of inspiration, accused Governor War
moth of dispatching a delegation to Jack
son to meet the congressional committee
| in order t. influence the views of the
members upon the subjects they are APP
| pointed to investigate. This is rs uncom-
| limentary to the good sense and honesty
| of the committee as it i Jlntruthful as re-
CARDS the Governor, No one was dis
patched by his excellency to meet the com
mittee. the State administration requiring
nothing but an open and fair investigation
to Justify its course to the country.
But such is plainly not the feeling of
the Democratic-Cu stomhouse coalition
They are weak in knowledge Of their
own wicked and illegal purposes, and are
unable to conceal their fears of the con-
sequences of full and official exposure
Failing to prevent the appointment of an
investigating cOmmiteee and foiled in
their subsequent efforts to stop its coming to
New Orleans, the conspirators now seek
to prejudice its conclusions in the pub
lie mind, even before the evidence upon
which they must be founded is taken.
That those conclusions must forever damn
the revtlutionists in the eyes of fair mind
ed and law-abiding men. their own con-
sciences tell them, and their only hope
of safety lies in creating belief that they
are unjustly dealt with. But even this
desperate and INSCRIPTIONS policy will
not save them The members of the COM
mittee bear reputation that neither par
tisan clamor nor official pressure will i'll
duce them to risk sullying; and we feel
safe in promising that their whole duty
will be performed.
Governor Warmoth might safely rest
his case upon the official promulgations of
the Democratic committees of Colonel
Carter and ef the legislative leaguers, for
out of their own mouths must they surely
stand convicted of utter disregard of law,
of life and of the public welfare, in pursu-
ing their ambitious plans to wrest the
State government from the constitutional
bowers

BADLY UNDERSTOOD.

President Grant comes in for sort of
left-handed compliment from the Cincin-
Natl combination newspaper, known to IA
very limited number of general readers as
the Chronicle and Times, for having al
lowed the federal troops to prevent New
Orleans mob from overthrowing the gov

We do not desire to disparage the design

to preserve the peace of the community,
still, for the benefit of such ill-inforned
Journals as the Chronicle and Times, we
must protest that the salvation of the State
was in its own hands, and Tie legitimate
authorities would have preserved them
selves and maintained the government, if
there had not been national soldier

Sheridan hunts the buffalo. TIE people
of New Orleans knew what they were about,
and so did the officers of the State There
was no division between the Governor and

ENTIRELY TOO THIN,

Two or three moderately respectable,
but sadly deluded gentlemen, representing
themselves as committee of the "Repub-
lean State Central Committee" issue an
address through the Customhouse organ
nomlnaliy to the Republicans of Louisiana,
but really In the delusive hope of creating
favorable impression for the revolution
lists on the minds of the congressional in
vestigators.
We had supposed the individuals who
surrounded themselves with federal
bayonets at the Customhouse in August
last, and while thus excluding the repre-
sentatives of the people, audaciously Gre
ated themselves into Estate Executive
Committee" for our party, would lay aside
their high pretensions upon joining the
Democracy in its endeavor to destroy that

UNSEEMLY HASTE,

Mr. Carter, ex-Speaker and ex-member
of the House of Representatives and at
present a clerk in the Customhouse, has
interviewed the congressional committee
He treated them to three hours garruity
Mr. Casey has already danced around FOR
the purpose of explaining himself. And
Mr.. Packard has promptly come to time
in one of his heavy rehearsals. Mayor
Flanders, who seems to be very actively
interested in everything except the duties
of his Office, has made bid for favor by
offering the committee a room in the City
Hall to hold their sessions in, and all the
lesser stipendiaries Of Uncle sam are IN a
fever of excitement to know what the COM
mittee is going to report about them.
Possibly the two hundred and fifty ''ser-
geants-at-arms' to whom the United States
marshals promised lucrative situations,
will call on the committee to-day, with
their revolvers and other accomplishments.
They will not, of course, represent the
federal ofticeholders, but can put in Il
claim to represent ''the people, and prove
it by their organ, the Times.
We suggest to these grilt-inspired
parties the propriety of giving the COM
mittee little time to settle down, take
testimony. weigh it, consult with the Sell
sible men of the Republican party, and
leave them to form their own conclusions.
BY the time they have unearthed the hid
den mysteries of the Customhouse, in
spected the pay rolls, ascertained the
actual service performed by the political
free lances who have been paid by Uncle
Sam for two or three years, the committee
will be ready to hear excuses in palliation.
But We recommend these naughty boys
not to cry till their names are called.
They may raise suspicious of their guilt,
