WRIT OF ELECTION.
FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT

STATE OF LOUISIANA }
Executive Department,
New Orleans, October q, 1873.
Whereas BY the constitution Of the United
States and the laws of the State of Louisiana it is
made the duty Of the executive authority, when
ever any vacancy shall happen in the representa-
ton 20 Congress from che said State to issue a
writ of election to fill such vacancy.
Whereas a vacancy has occurred in the repre-
sentation to Congress from the fourth congress
ional district of the State of Louisiana; by the
death OF Samuel Peters, member elect to the Forty
third Congress from the said district
New, therefore, I, c. 6. Antoine, Lieutenant Gov
ernOr and Acting Governor of the State of Louisi-
ana do issue this, my proclamation, designating
MONDAY, the twenty fourth day of November
1873, the day for the election of a Representa-
tive to the Congress of the United States from the
fourth congressional district of the State of Louis
ana, and hereby direct all supervisors of regis
tration and other officers of the parishes of West
Feliciana, Pointe Coupee Avoyelles, Rapides,
Sabine, Natchtoches De Soto, Caddo Bosser
Vim, Grant, Red River Webster and Vernon form
ing said congressional district to take all neces
sary steps for the holding of said election in ac-
cordance with the laws of this State and of the

Canada. It not only secures England q

Canada. It not only secures England o
cheap grain delivery, but the Transports
ton of British goods direct to the upper
American lakes is now secured by daily
line of steamers from Montreal. Should
not New York tLen support the Missis-
sippi as the only competent competitor Of
the st. Lawrence? New York will need
all the routes south of her to divert the
trade from the British route. All the trade
which passes over the Mississippi must
rebound to the advantage of New York.
All the development resulting from peo-
pies planted upon the Mississippi must
take the same direction New York and
Philadelphia should then support the
Mississippi Improvements as resource
IN the event of the unprecedented advance
OF the st. Lawrence, and the obvious
favor with which that river has come
to be regarded in the Northwest. All
the Lines mentioned should make
common cause with the Mississippi and
press its improvement as indispensable to
the success of their own, for if New York
with her splendid system of transporta-
ton can not arrest the grain export or
goods importation, how can any other
Eastern city do so? II Western grain is
TUNED North by the st. Lawrence, how
can the upper Mississippi or Ohio deliver
export cargoes for Philadelphia, Balti-
more, Norfolk, or Savannah? First put
the Mississippi through, and then all can
participate. Allow it TO be disabled by
snags, shoals, wrecks or bars, and its
great and only rival will triumphantly
draw out the products and supply the de-
mands Of the great West, while fishermen
may dry their nets on the quays and
customhouses of our Eastern Atlantic
seaports. We hope the New York Times
and Herald will yeview their transporta-
ton policy and, instead of opposing the
Mississippi, regard it as the great pro-
tector Of coastwise and foreign commerce,
and the only champion that can win the
belt in fair stand up fight with its pow
erfuI rival.
