the eve sOf the sailing of his wife and
step-daughters for Europe, by way of
Panama, and coolly advised him to
think no more of persons who, having
been once deceived and now no more
than fairly compensated therefor by
him, preferred future life and associa-
tions in their former English home to
longer connection with one whom
they could esteem only ut that dis
tance. The desertion came upon the
man like a thunderbolt in the midst
OF his new prosperity, and fairly struck
him to the earth. At this time he was
found by an old Wall street associate.
drawn TO the P;lcific coast by the min
ing stock fever, and to him he said,
after relating his misery, 81 have no
heart left for anything more in this
world" The friend urged him to
Overlive his great misfortune to be
man, and save himself for something
better than the heartIess revenge of a
female robber; but his only answer
was, 6 tell you have no heart left
for any thing more.' Within a month
he had scattered his $4,000 to the
winds, lost all his valuable mining
stock in reckless gambling, and was
beggar. His New York friend and
other well-wishers would have helped
him thereafter, but, without q werd
of warning or farewell to them, he
disappeared abruptly from Virginia
City, and was supposed to have died
subsequently in vagrancy at a place
called Unionville. Death, however,
it appears, was not for him, and, as
described above, his old associate of
Wall street days was to see him once
more, in the grizzly bearded, footsore,
hungry old wayf;srer begging meal
i'll White Pine. Concluding his REM
iniscenees in the restaurant, that
friend explained that it would have
been utterly useless for him to have
undertaken any further office for the
wanderer than the volunteered paw
ment for his meal "A complete wreck
i'll body and mind. No heart left for
anything. fused to know him i'm Wall
street, New York, years ago."

sending him to the United States Sen
ate but it is very probable that his
candidacy would be the signal for a
grand rally to the McEnery ticket
throughout the State and consequent
division of the conservative strength
in many of the parishes. This will be
the grave question to be decided by
the approaching convention. If wisely
disposed of, the Liberal party will
sweep the State like o whirlwind, car
rying everything before it. Otherwise
the result will be a division of the
Conservative vote and the probable
triumph of the ultra Radical party
and four years more of corruption and
misrnle.
The formation of the balance of the
ticket will not be difficult. 1t is un-
dersto0d that Mr.. Pinehback will de-
cline any nomination for State office,
and will be satisfied with the candi-
dacy for Congress, State at large, which
will no doubt be eheerfully conceded
to him.
We look forward to the action of
the August convention with much So
licitude, and hope that the delegations
will be composed of calm and thought
fIIl men who will solve the only prob
lem which remains to give a triumph
ant victory to the Liberal party.

The Political Situation.
[From the Natchitoches Times.l

The development of the political
situation in this State during the past
few weeks has been favorable to the
Liberal movement, which has now
assumed proportions which give it the
front rank, in numbers and intelli-
genee, among all parties in opposition
to extreme Radicalism. The endorse
ment of Greeley and Brown ut Balti-
more. which is confidently expected,
will add to its strength and the en-
thusiasm of its supporters in the State,
and give it an impetus which will be
irresistible and force the absorption
by it of all other conservative parties
in the State.
While this is true rs far as mere po-
litical development is concerned, yet
there remains delicate duty t0 be
performed at the approaching eonyen-
tion of 5th August, which, if not wise
" done, may impair the strength and
unity of the Liberal movement. and
thus reduce it to the level of "a mere
faction, dividing the conservative vote
of the State and assisting the Demo-
cratic and Reform parties in opening
the way for the triumph of the Baton
Rouge Radical ticket and the detested
principles and policy of the party
supporting it. This delicate duty is
the nomination of an acceptable State
ticket, combining the strongest and
best men of the two elements from
which the Liberals will draw their
strength, and preserving at the same
time that just equilibrium between
them which will command the appr0-
baton of both.
It is generally conceded that the
first place on the ticket is due to u
Republiean-and that Gov. Warmoth
lis the choice of his party friends for
that position cannot be doubted.
Yet, while he would command a
larger vote from those Liberals who
come from the Republican, side, it is a
grave question whether this gain
would not be lost by the falling off III
the vote from dhe Democratic side,
the people having been persistently
educated to look upon him as the
.arch enemy of the State and the
author of their woes. There is a grow
ing disposition to accept him as the
candidate for Governor, the preiudiees
of many being overcome with the
prospect of 'Sgetting rid" OF him by
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1872-07-27

consequences which might otherwise
| result from the bad faith or irrational
prejudiees of the Democratic leaders.
They do not believe that the people
will permit the State to be sacrificed
at the dictation of men who have
shown themselves utterly ineompe-
tent to understand the necessities of
the times, and incapable of achieving
anything but defeat.
The Liberal party appeals to all cit
liens who are opposed to Grants ad-
ministration; to all who are sincerely
in favor of Greeley and Brown; to
all who wish to defeat the machina-
tions of the corrupt and wicked fac
ton represented by the Baton Rouge
ticket. Their convention, to be held
on the fifth of August. will represent
vast majority of the Liberal and
Democratic voters of the State, and
their ticket will be supported by an
array of numerical force, backed by
an amount of moral influence, which
will reduce the Democratic bolt to
Insignificant proportions. The people
understand that in this election the
State must go either for the Liberal
or for the Custom-House party. The
success of the one insures our vote for
Greeley and Brown, and will give us
that practical reform in State affairs
which We SO much need. The success
of the other, with Mr.. Kellogg as Gov
ernor, and q reversion of the execu-
tive office to the notorious c. G. An
toliie, will entail on us a perpetuation
of corrupt and yenal legislation and
all the horrors of q government re-
mitted to the hands of the ignorant,
the vicious and the degraded. For
any useful purpose the present Demo-
cratic organization is powerless. 1t
repels rather than attracts popular
sympaths 1t appeals only to name
which has become an empty word to
memories which recall the divisions
and resentments of a bitter past; to
preiudices and passions which are the
Legacy of an era of strife and blood;
to issues which have been settled, and
to controversies which, are closed.
The Liberal party turns from the
past To the future it seeks to heal the
wounds which years of sectional hate
and angry conflict have inflicted ON
the country it strives to release the
people from the CALLING fetters of party
tyranny, and to combine in one great
movement all the opposition TO the
corrupt and despotic government ut
Washington and to the equally cor
rupt and despotic faction which rep
resents the national administration in
this State.
Representing great popular move
ment and q great popular impulse, it
yields to the flictiom of no cliques and
is subservient to no individual. 1t in
vites to its councils ill who sympa-
thize with its effort to redeem the
State and to cooperate in the re-
deIhption of the nation. 1t is essen
TALLY party of principle and toleri-
tion, and its action will be Influenced
solely by the intelligent public opin-
ion to which it owes its origin, and in
which alone it c0nfides. 1t appeals to
the common sense, the virtue and the
Judgment of the people; and to this
appeal the responses are so general
and so emphatic that it has no longer
any fear of the result.
By order of the State Central Com
mittee. ID. B. PENN, President,
A. HERO, Jr., Secretary.

TO counteract this large majority,
the Administration depends upon
patronage, intimidation, and money.
This Is a serious statement, but we
make it advisedly. Personal influ-
ence has exceptional weight in North
Carolina. Railways are few; mails
are infrequent; newspapers are not
much read; and there are extensive
districts where the United States mar
shal, or the revenue collector, exerts
moral force very much like that
possessed by the rural nsdire or prefet
under the French empire. A threat
to prosecute fer some technical or Inn
aginary violation of the Internal Rev
enue laws, or to arrest on suspicion of
completely in half-forgotten Ku-Klux
raids, or promise tn wink Mt illicit
whisky and be easy in the matter of
Federal taxes, is often enough to turn
the vote of whole neighborhood.
And where this is not enough, it
should be remembered that the peo-
pie OF North Carolina are very poor,
and q handful of greenbacks, judi
ciously distril uted, either as fees to
supernumerafy marshals for con-
structive services, or in the more yul-
gar form Of direct bribery, may go II
great ways.
Now the duty of the North Carolina
Liberals Is plain and easy. They are
enough, with the Democrats, to beat
the Grant men, money bags, marshals,
and all; but they must do it now, and
not put off that desirable work till
November. If they want to show the
sincerity of the Cincinnati overtures
of friendship, let them go into this
Summer campaign with all their
might, and give the Democratic ticket
a generous and vigorous support. A
slavish adhesion to old names, i'm the.
presence of the new issues of this
year, can have no other tendency
than TO perpetuate disunion; and We
call upon all who mean to vote. for
Mr.. Greeley in November to do their
best for the election of Merrimon in
August. North Carolina has u proud
place in American history. She took
the lead in seyering the allegiance OF
the colonies to the mother country;
more than II year before the Declara-
ton of Independence was signed as
Philadelphia the people of Meckien-
burg County in North Carolina pro-
claimed separation from Great
Britain and established q Government
of their own. Let her now take the
lead in renewing the interrupted
union of the States; and as she repu-
dated English tyranny in IT'S. so let
her rebuke centralizatioh, corruption,
and partisan intolerance in 1872. A
people who Where not afraid of the
whole British empire hundred years
ago are not likely to be intimitlated
now by politicians and place-holders..
We look to North Carolina for the
first gun which shall herald the great
Liberal victory and inaugurate the
new era OF peace and reconciliation.

We must confess our inability to-
unravel the tangled skein of Louisiana
politics. The nominations of the
Democratic Convention met with
great disfilyor from the public. See
ing this, the Democratic Central
Committee assumes the power to fuse
with the petty faction called Reform
ers and, without any authority, they
give up to the Reformers one half the
ticket. These Ref0rmers could con-
troll perhaps a thousand votes, not
more. And, moreover, those thou
sand intend to vote for Grant. The
union ticket being thus formed, how
is it possible to unite all the anti Grant
men. The Liberal Republicans are
Il power in the State, and without
them the Greeley ticket has but small
chance for success. We had thought
q ticket could be fixed up and one
half the Democratic nominees re-
tanned; but this late union, and the
abuse McEnery has seen proper so
lately To heap on the State admins
tration seems to us to have made that
impossible. The Liberals and Demo-
Gratis then must fuse regardless of the
Ref0rmers and what has been done,
and make an entire new ticket, and
that ticket must be strong. Then
only could they hope for success. If
the Democracy would call another
convention then the Liberals might
effect terms with them. But other
wise the Democrats may simply have
to give up their organization and go
into that of the Liberals. We have
strong hopes that IL ticket to please
the great majority of opponents to
Grant can be gotten mp, composed of
such men as Sandidge, Sheridan,
Semmes, Graham, Jumel and our
friend, c. j. G.. Puckette. BOssier
