LOSS OF THE FRENCH STEAMER,

It will be remembered that the REpUB-
LIcAN has commended for the superior safe
ty of the New Orleans route to Liverpool.
the late accident to the French steamer
goes to enforce thes views. Five days Of
fog, collision at night and three hundred
passengers submerged in the icy sea of
the North. Here were two causes of lost
life which do not occur on the New Or
leans route.
Why should not the Northern travel,
which is composed Of so many valuable
people, come down South in the winter
and make safe passage across the At
lantic? Why should not the Western
States, which import SC many useful i'm
migrants, turn the tide of immigration
from the mouth of the Mersey to the
mouth of the Mississippi? The value of
the Southern climate by sea and land can
not be sufficiently estimated in the interna-
tional intercourse. TO the travel from Mex
leo and countries south of that State, the
New Orleans lines Of steamers to England
and Germany Offer the inducement Of su-
perior safety. Let Us hope that the whole
continent will recognize the value of our
route, and make New Orleans their point
of departure and arrival.

eye Of being seated. Our enemies have
about reached their last dollar, SO that
while claiming to embrace within their
numbers the wealth, responsibility and
majority of the people of Louisiana,
they are not able to hold a political con-
vention without assessing the merchants
of New Orleans, and even failed to enforce
that. AS there was no money to pay
the distinguished counsel who had
been engaged to represent them, they
were obliged to detail two Of the members
Of the famous Committee of Two Hundred
and Seventy to make such showing as they
could. Mr.. Evarts Of New York city
failed to put in an appearance, for doubt
less the same reason that Messrs. Camp
bell and Hunt declined to 60 to Washing
ton. Surely ''people" that is able to
''clean out" whole State in ten minutes,
sought to be able to raise few dollars to
fee an attorney" Tie fact is our Fusion
friends are frauds in nature, few in num-
Der, and unimportant in every respect
Their misfortune consists il their not
knowing themselves. NJ

A RULE OP FORCE.

II is unfortunate for the people of Louis
lana that their pretended friends are per-
mitted to set them forth to the world as
being ready to break the bands Of law and
order and rush into riot and violence the
very moment a power which they hold in
awe is Withdrawn. We are daily told in
tones SO loud that all the civilized COM
munities of the North may hear that ''the
people of Louisiana would overthrow the
usurpers in ten minutes were they not
protected by the authority of the federal
government. This is as injurious to us
as it is untrue. The Republican govern
ment could not be put down in ten min
utes if there were not federal soldier in
the State. 1t has gone too far for that
No doubt band of determined assassins
could do good deal of mischief in very
short time, but when it come to a positive
issue the opponents of republicanism
would find there were blows to receive as
well as to give, and the issue would be
doubtful and disastrous to both parties.
But people of other States do not know
that this discomfort is confined to mis-
cradle remnant Of once powerful party,
now hopelessly in the minority. They
suppose that there is faithful band of
true Republicans in this State, surrounded |
by the army Of the United States, inter
posed to protect them from the vengeance
of an angry mob. And when they read |
the vaporings of our desperate politicians
they conclude they will wait till there is
something like agreement among our
selves before they come here, send us
money, cotton, Western produce, ETC., or
wen put such powerful auxiliary in our
possession as a seven million dollar ship
anal. And SO we are left to stagnation
nd the discordant notes of decayed re-
probability. There is light ahead, how
Yer. The Republican government is
Irmly established. Our Senator is on the
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1873-12-18
AN ARRIVAL FROM WASHINGTON.

We had the pleasure OF greeting Judge
II. c. Meyers, OF Natchitoches, yesterday,
on his return from Washington, whittier
he was sent by the colored convention as
one Of the committee to attend to our
case before the Senate. He makes most
encouraging report OF the situation. The
President expressed himself in terms Of
irmness and kindness, and Senator Sum-
ner gave assurances of his assistance at
the proper time. Even Senator Schurz is
friendly to seating Senator Pinchback, and
there is not doubt of his success as soon
as vote can be taken. But there is the
only rub. 1t is reasonably probable that
the Senate may be brought to a vote be-
fore the holidays, n which case the per-
turbed spirit of the Louisiana case will
be forever at rest. The gallant champion
of our State, Senator Morton, is prosecut-
ing this business with all the energy that
characterized his Official acts during the
war. He then was known all over the
Union as one of the good Governors,
and was probably the best of the lot He
has the prayers OF every good Republican
In the State for success. Judge Meyers
Washington very thoroughly,
and brings very hopeful tidings to the
anxious hearts of our waiting friends
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1873-12-18
VERY HIGH COMPLIMENT.


Senator Morton is one Of the clearest
headed men in the United States Senate,
and has no superio, anywhere as true,
able and jealous flend OF his. -eonntry.
Praise or compliment from such man is
worth ten thousand Endorsements in ordi-
nary political meetings. We notice with
satisfaction the following paragraph in
our telegraphic dispatches from Washing
tom
Senator Morton, throughout his entire
argument to day in he Senate, adopted the
precise legal propositions. and read the
same authorities presented to the committee
i'll their discussion by Mr.. Billings and
Judge Dibble.
We could not have better evidence that
our talented youngrepresentatives before
the Senate Committee had acquitted them
selves with honor and credit. Senator
Morton Is not the nan to repeat a weak
or puerile argument, and probably had
the good fortune to find the very ideas lie
wanted furnished to hand, ready to pre-
sent to the Senate. But one thing now
remains to complete our satisfaction. Let
some Senator on tn. Democratic side re-
peat, by way of answer to Mr.. Morton,
the arguments of Messrs. Ogden and
Mari before the committee II that does
not close ont the "Louisiana case, we do
not know what will do it. Such pre-
sentation Of the case would doubtless for
felt Carl Schurz' PREDICTION that there will
be twenty speeches on the question before
a vote can be taken One such effort will
suffice, unless the Senators are greedy for
a peculiar class of literature.

CENTENNIAL TEA PARTY.

The celebration of the anniversary Oh
the day on which the tea cargo of a Brit
ish vessel was cast into the bay at Boston,
marks the immense advance of personal
liberty. The tax on tea was burden as
purely imaginary as could well have been
chosen to illustrate the hostility Of the
people to any abuse of the taxing power
However determined they might have
been to resist, there was necessary degree
Of caution manifest in the manner OF re-
sistance. Those who went on board the
vessel were disguised as Mohawk Indians.
Thus, while it was impossible to have
identified the men, the sentiment Of the
whole people was represented by this act
The mode by which opposition to the
abuse of power by the British colonial
government was manifested in another col.
ony WAS somewhat diferent a body Of
men, headed by prominent citizen,
marched to the Kings magazine and
took from there some barrels of
powder, for which they left re-
ceipt sign ed by their leaders. Each
Of these acts displayed the same deter
mined resistance to tax in the imposition
of which these people had not been re-
cognized Or represented. We may well
imagine the wrath with which such acts
were received III England, and the trepida-
ton of the timid for the consequences.
Resistance to taxation at this day is
much more open. There is no conceal
ment of men or of purpose. People
swear they will not pay taxes, because
they choose to say these taxes are Illegal.
The doctrine is not advanced that the tax
payer has not been represented. The
power of taxation may have. been entrusted
to reckless and dishonest hands. This
would be the fault of the constituency which
did not set a proper watch over the cleo 4
hons Were the taxes to be resisted at
present there would be no disguise of per-
son and no formal receipt Instead of
throwing the subject of tax overheard that
courtesy would be extended to the tax
yatherers. If the centennial celebration Of
our tax resisters shall ever take place, it

MIR. sYPEER's FORT ST. PHILIP CANAL
RTTI,

We are indebted to Hon. J. FL. Sypher
for copy of the bill introduced by him
into the House of Representatives on the
eighth instant, providing for the construc-
ton Of ship canal from the Mississippi
river near Fort St. Philip to the Gulf The
bill was read twice, referred to the Com
mittee on Railways and Canals, and Or
dered to be printed.
| The first section directs that canal be

mercial purpose. ct point on the river

seven feet deep, VII > lock at the river
eighty feet wide and four hundred feet
long, and also guard lock at the Gulf
end. The work is to be done under the
direction of the Secretary Of War.
Section two authorizes q special survey
for the purpose of enabling the Secretary
Of War to determine upon the route.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth Sec
tons provide the manner in which the
right Of way and lands that may be neces-
sary shall be obtained.
The seventh section directs that the
work shall be commenced within six
months after the passage of the act, and
completed at the earliest possible day
thereafter, consistent with the public in
terests.
Section eight authorizes the Secretary
to let the whole or any part Of the pro-
posed work out by contract, after the
usual advertisement for proposals.
Until otherwise provided by law, the
canal is to be open at all times for the
free use of vessels belonging to the
United States, and to all our citizens and
to all nations in commercial amity with
the United States.
The canal shall be kept in repair and
operated wholly or in part by army officers,
detailed by the War Department.
A superintendent is provided for, to be
appointed By the President al salary of
twenty-five hundred dollars, who, under
the direction and orders of the Secretary
of War, shall take the general control and
management of the canal and the repairs.
The sum Of seven million FIVE hundred
thousand dollars or so much of such sum
as may be necessary is appropriated for
the work
Such are the leading features Of this
most important bill They are as salts
factory to the citizens of Louisiana as the
work is important. A few days ago, Cen
eral Sypher succeeded in calling together
q meeting of large number of members,
many of whom had previously signed
call for the purpose to consider this bill,
meagre report of which has already |
reached US by telegraph. He appears to
have entered upon the business of secur-
ing advantages for the State he represents
with great earnestness and ability. He is in
a fair way, we are glad to say to succeed, in
which case he will earn for himself debt |
Of gratitude, which no one who desires |
the prosperity Of New Orleans can ever
forget, or will be likely to ignore.
