election, they might vote to issue bonds 70
the extent of half million Of dollars. The
war would be short and sharp, we pre-
sumo, the same army voting to run the
town of Monroe into debt one day and
then voting to do the same thing for the
parish of Claiborne the next day; by which
piece Of active exercise all the towns,
municipalities and parishes on a given
line might be cleaned out in sixty days
march. Ray is bold lobbyist and a
great reformer. He has made great deal
of money at his trade and some bogus
reputation by his pretensions, but this
little speculation will hardly go down at
this time.

came of Senator Rays project to exempt
a certain class of insurance companies
from taxation. That was a push at the
treasury that ought to have been patented
as original Did Senator Ray ever file a

THINK TWICE BEFORE SPEAKING.

The work intrusted to the investigating
committee is one in which every good cit
izen is interested. To ascertain just how
far the power and influence of the United
States officials have been perverted to the
promotion of private ends, is the affair not
only Of the community in which such
wrongs have been committed, but of the
whole country. That this is fully appre-
ciated is shown by the alacrity and fullness
with which all acquainted with the partic-
ulars of our recent State imbroglio give
their testimony, and by the eagerness
manifested in other parts of the country to
receive the reports of that testimony.
The members of the committee are no
whit less Jealous than the public in gen.
eral, and by their searching and compre-
hensive questions seem attempting to veri-
fy the prophecy that there is nothing
hidden that shall not be revealed and
nothing done in a corner that shall not be
proclaimed from the house-top. This zeal,
if limited to the subject under investiga-
ton, could not be too highly commended;
but when it steps beyond these bounds to
pry into private matters of business, and
even into affairs of still more personal
character, it should be checked.
The committee is not invested with the
powers welded of old by the Inquisition
they have no means to compel submission
to an improper demand, and when any one
of them, whether prompted by idle curl
osity or edged ON by outside malice, at
tempts to obtain information on matters
not connected with the subject to be in
vestigated, self-respect should prompt the
witness to decline answerirg-unless, in
deed, witness and questioner are alike dis
posed to turn a grave political examina-
ton into gossiping confab. 1t is true
that the real bearing Of question is not
always apparent and that witnesses must
sometimes answer blindly; but any one of
ordinary intelligence can know when an
interrogatory is wholly irrelevant, and, if
in state of due composure, will likewise
know how to respond to it. The exercise
of due deliberation in answering will also
be attended with the additional advantage
of doing away with the notifying neces-
sity of subsequent corrections.

with the calendar, and he hoped they
would not adjourn until this was done.
He was in favor of not getting behind with
the work of legislation, and in this way
members could obviate the necessity of
night sessions. A number of bills on their
third reading were then taken up and
finally passed.
The disposition of Speaker Brewster to
keep up with the business Of the House is
certainly worthy of commendation 1t
will not only prevent the necessity Of night
sessions, but it will prevent confusion
from any hurry to get through with an ac-
emulation of business as the term of the
session draws to close. By clearing the
calendar every day the House will keep up
with its work, and there will be no neces-
sity for hurry and confusion in the last
DAYS of the session

4 NEW RAID BY THE LOBBY.

Since Senator Ray is estopped by a
provident amendment of the constitution
from Furnishing the State Treasury with
the unjustihable issue of bonds and other
collaterals of that description, be now
turns his attention to the local treasures.
and is devising laws to bleed the cities and
parishes of the commonwealth to a condi-
ton of bankruptcy. What Mr. Ray for
gets in his own interest and in that of the
lobby is not worth remembering. and what
he leaves undone, or at least uninterrupted
is liable to the strong su9b icion of having
too much honesty about it.
The Senator's new campaign is organ
lied against the towns, villages munici-
palities and police juries of the State in
the interest of a railroad ring; and its sue
cess is to be accomplished by the organ
ization of a movable army Of irresponsi-
bic voters, which is to be projected into the
localities intended to be victimized, about
ten days before the holding OF any election
in which the railroad ring NAV be inter-
ested. The first general order" of the
campaign is to be Senator Rays law, au-
thorlng any political organization in the
State to issue its bonds in favor of any rail-
road, imaginary or otherwise, that NAV be
projected in its own or any other locality.
The only incident necessary to the success
of the campaign is to be the vote of the
legally qualified voters of such parish
town, municipality or city, in favor of the
bonds. Here is where the job comes in.
AS it only requires ten days residence to
constitute any citizen of the State into n
qualified voter, in any town, parish or
municipality, the ring" proposes to
Plaquemine the locality where the
campaign is in progress. By sending n
thousand railroad laborers to the town of
Monroe, for instance, ten days before an

edge of the living God must go with it.
If this is his remedy, and the interveners
in our government, vulgarly called Repub-
icans, are supplying it, are We not being
cured?. Seven hundred schools and ninety
thousand scholars, where only few years
ago there were neither schools nor scholars,
is an infusion that looks as if the inter-
lopers who have been thrust upon the
community intended to eradicate ignorance
before the Republic falls, at any event.
Grandfather, despite his own reasons,
and in the face of his own statements,
AYERS that the Republicans overthrow the
republic, because they insisted that Louis
lana should assimilate her institutions to
the order of things that prevailed in her
sister States as the given and declared re-
suit of the defeated rebellion. This is
the fatal charge that made us reject the
communication. Its postulates were so
widely at variance that we considerably
declined to diffuse them. Having Just
located the blame for our trouble upon
the better class of people, and that prop
erly, too, We could not consent to see so
plain a proposition subverted in the in
terest of selfishness by the prejudiced
and unfounded assertion that Republican
ism was responsible for what had plainly
been traced to human stubbornness and
neglect. We have no doubt that some
pretended Republicans have committed
errors and offenses in Louisiana, but that
all the infrmities Of our condition are to
be traced to these causes, all the grand
fathers in the country could not persuade
US, especially when We know, and when
We know that they know, that the obstin-
acy and neglect of the South have been
the ruin of the South, so far as she is
ruined. Grandpa should have dished up
his conversation on two plates, as he had
two courses, the reasonable one being sent
to us, and the unreasonable one to the
Times.
