PROFANITY Or INSANITY.

The irrepressible Train exclaimed re-
Gently, in one of his widest attempts at
oratory, "Vor populi, voS TTaiJi.
What but the most hopeless insanity or
consummate profanity could cause a poor
worm Of humanity to thus pervert the
Latin proverb of Pog popuR, UOT Del?
None but crazy man or an irreverent
dog and fool would thus attempt to sup
plant the immortal God with small bit of
dirty mortalit y.
The last invention Of Mr.. Train fully
establishes the shallowness and vain pre-
tensions of a man who has long since be-
come the laughing-stock of the world.
His substitution of "Trqinj for Del is a
most striking Illustration Of his immense
presumption and great lack of wisdom.
Mr.. Trains conceit has leo him to say
many foolish things; and among them is
the silly boast that he is 1.-The only man
who can make the pulpit and the press
shiver in their boots. The idea. vain
enough to come from George Francis
Train, is expressed in his own choice
style, ridiculous enough to excite the
laughter of the learned as well as
the illiteate; but in attempting to sub
stitute TFaini for Del he suddenly jumps
from the ridiculous to tine blasphemous
and plays something more than highly
ludicrous pat; ne plays the part of an in
solent scofsZ of religion; the part of an
infamous demoraizer Of society. And the
charlatan has the audacity to expect and
receive pay from the public for his dirty
work. And because an intelligent press
will not publish his filthy diatribes, and is
disposed to deal lightly with him because
it is in doubt as to his sanity, he miscon-
strues its charity; aud, becoming doubly

ANTOINE For GOVERNOR.

Our contemporary, the Times, rather
startled the community yesterday by I'M
qualifedly asserting that it was in the
programme of the Customhouse managers
at Baton Rouge to send Kellogg to the
Senate in case they carry the State next
election, thus leaving the chief magistracy
of Louisiana in the hands of colored
man, and one, too, of the narrowest-
minded, egotistical and revengeful of his
race. Yet one of our Baton Rouge CORE
spondents, from Antoine's own mouth,
furnishes proof that this serious considera-
ton is placed before the people.
There are other confrmatory reasons
than those given in our correspondents
letter. Senator Kellogg has never become
acclimated, and is possessed with an all
absorbing dread of the diseases which
most frequently develop in this climate.
He has run away from New Orleans and
been prevented returning hither by mere
rumors of yellow fever cases, and those
who best know him declare that even if
his announced intention to serve out the
full gubernatorial term could be depended
upon, his prediction for his Northern
home and associates in the summer season
would leave us under the rule of the pc
culiarly Objectionable Lieutenant Cover
nor for at least third of the year.
Many will doubtless discredit the idea
that such influences could prevail, but
those who know the solicitous regard of
Mr.. Kellogg for the health of himself and
family, as heretofore exhibited, and take
into consideration the interests and con-
nections he would be forced to sacrifice
and sever, by exchanging his official resi-
dence in Washington for one in New Or
leans, will readily be convinced of the
terrible jeopardy in which the State would
be placed by the success of the Baton
Rouge ticket. Every voter in the State
should weigh this subject carefully, Civ
ing especial attention to the character,
and qualifications of the nom
inee for the Lieutenant Governorship. |
Black men as well as white are interested |
in securing good government and none
know so well as the former how impossi-
BILE of attainment this would be under
Caesar Antoine

HEAVY ONLY NAME.

William Pitt Kellogg and Cesar Cataline
Antoine are heavy names to head the
Grant, ustomhouse ticket in the next fed
eral and State elections in Louisiana; but
the candidates are both slight weights, F"
mentally and physically. Neither Kellogg
nor Antoine will weigh over one hundred
and twenty pounds encased in his wearing
apparel, and there is scarcely quantum
suficit Of brains in both to make an intel
lectual giant. So far as appearance is
concerned, Antoine is rather the better
looking man of the two, and his beauty is
not likely to strike in with any overpower-
ing effect. Taken as a pair of candidates,
they are well matched, except in color.
Caesar Cataline Antoine is as black as the
ace Of spades-to use a rather common ex-
pression-and William Pitt Kellogg is as
white as a lily, if not as fair.
Many persons are inclined to express
the opinion that the members of the
Packard convention were hard up for good
material when they had to take Kellogg
and Antoine as their candidates for Gov
ernor and Lieutenant Governor. But they
are not aware, perhaps, that the Packard
convention, or the men who controlled it's
action, had their orders from Washington.
Kellogg is undoubtedly the choice of
Grant for Governor Of this State, and
Grant cares little who is displeased in the
premises if he can manage to force the
ticket of the Packard convention upon the
people of Louisiana. President Grant
will, however, find this a much more diff
fcult job than debating the nominations.
He can command his federal officials
down here, but he will find that he can
not dictate to the people how they shall
vote.

lmpertinent launches at it more freely
than ever his impOtent thunderdolts.
There was time when Mr.. Train could
humbug the press and induce it to pub
lish column after column Of his sensational
talk, which, when boiled down to an es-
sence, was found to be the essence of
Train. Mr. Train then put on dignifed
airs, and assumed to be a philosopher,
poet, statesman, warrior, orator, gentle
man and scholar He travelled all over
the world, and failed to obtain diploma
certifying that he was entitled to any of
these honors. He then assumed the
characters of Snowman, presidential
joker, etc, obtained an engagement from
Mr.. DeBar, the enterprising manager of
the ST. Charles Theatre, and came down
here as a ''show." We have Mr.. Trains
authority for saying this. If the press can
not eonscientiouly approve of the character
and immoral tendencies Of the ''show" it
is its duty to speak out in defense of the
public interest In the case of Mr.. Train,
in this city, an intelligent press has dealt
with him in no other light than as a
'show" He has been treated as other
''model artists" have been, whose sole OBJ
ject in coming here was to make money
Whenever they have outraged decency, or
shown disposition to humbug the peo-
pie, they have at first been mildly rebuked
by being humorously told of their faults;
and then, in the language Of the old man
in the spelling-book, who had endeavored
to drive the boy out of his apple tree by
gentle means, the press has endeayored to
see ''what virtue there is in stones" It
is the duty of the journalist to guard well
the public morals and expose all kinds of
humbugs; to see that neither profanity or
insanity works injury to the people
We are now treating Mr.. Train as
"show," and when he makes his enter
tainments worthy Of praise the REPUB-
LIcAN will be most happy 10 "render unto
Caesar the things that are Cesar's." We
have not yet undertaken to speak of him
as philosopher, poet, statesman, warrior,
orator, gentleman and scholar. These
are subjects, as we conceive, entirely out |
side of his present vocation. He may
give limitations of these characters on
the stage, a Ia Lingard, but this can only
be considered in the light of a show.
Therefore we think Mr. Train uniustly |
complains of the leading press of this
city. As joker, he should learn to take |
q joke. The press attempted to rally him,
and he fooishly declares war.

BRIsTLING WITH ARMS.

A delayed dispatch to the Evening
Times says:
Yesterday fifteen delegates visited the
Penitentiary, and before entering deposited
twenty-five pistols, eight knives and two
brass knuekles, fair estimate of the deadly
weapons carried.
Thirty-fve deadly weapons to fifteen
men is number out of all proportion to
the necessities or proprieties of the case.
This goes beyond anything that ever oc-
Cured in this city at one of the Globe
balls where the police always required
those who entered to first give up their
arms. A pistol or knife was found now
and then, but we never heard of case
where it was reported that there was an
average of two and one-third deadly weap-
ons to a man So the Baton Rouge con-
venion is ahead of the Globe ballroom.

Again the Bee declares that the Demo
Gratis can carry the State by making a
straight set of nominations. This is
lovely, that paper which has deserted
the straight nominations that were made,
now wants more of the same sort. For
tunately the first day of July is close at
hand, and we shall thenceforth be saved
the trouble of reading this manner of non
sense. The American language is too
valuable to be abused that way.

BATON ROUGE, June %, 1872.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
Sunday in Baton Rouge is usually a quiet,
pious and eventless day to all who avoid
the vicinity of the "Beergarten," but this
has been an exception to the rule. The
bolt of Billings and his friends last night
on the Carrie A. Thorn, angry and vindic-
tive, and bent on waging unrelenting war
upon those who had crushed their hopes
with the strong hand of federal power, was
followed this morning by a stampede of
delegates in all directions in which convey
ance could be found to bear them. The
Mary, which connects with the railroad at
DOnaldsonville, took off some forty-fve or
fifty, and the Ouachita Belle and Pike
would have done equally well but for the
strenuous personal efforts of Kellogg, Shell
don, Packard, and their strikers, who, sta
toned at intervals on the routes leading to
the landing, buttOn-holed the disguised and
departing delegates, and in many instances
succeeded in inducing their stay. This was,
