it is thought that the enterprise will be a
profitable venture, paying handsome divi.

the necessary buildings, machinery, sc.
We wish it every success, and hail it as an
evidence of an enterprising spirit newly
awakened among our intelligent farmers, and

by men whose prudence and foresight will
insure success. 1t will probably be in oper.

The News.

In the hurry and confusion incident TO
the close of Congress, it appears that in the
appropriation bill S25,000 was appropriated
as the Presidents salary, and that when the
increase was decided on $50, 900 was also APP
propriated. The President can therefore, if
he pleases, draw 500 as his salary. 1t
is intimatcd, however, that he will draw the
$4,000 and let the balance remain, that the
error may be rectified by the next Congress.

The high-handed and illegal interference of
General Grant in the domestic concerns of
The State of Louisiana has borne, as might
have been expected, the bitter fruit of blood
shed. When it was ascertained in New Or.
leans that Congress had adjourned without
taking any steps towards the re-establishment
oforder and tranquility there, the Indignation
of the people was unbounded, and number
of the most impulsive among them took pos
session Of the police stations in the occupan-
cy Of Kellogg's party. This action, ofcourse,
led to q sharp skirmish between the L. s.,
troops and the citizens, in which one or two
men were killed and several wounded. The
outbreak, it is stated, was not authorized by
the McEnery government, but seems to have
arisen from the sheer force Of despair Of OBJ
tanning justice at the hands of President
Grant or his advisers, and with the wish,
perhaps, that, as all hope of congressional
interference in their behalf was gone, mill
tary goyernment-as an evil less to be de.
plored-might take the place of the detested
Kellogg acknowledgement as it is of
carpet baggers and negroes.
For every drop of blood shed in New Or
leans in this civil conflict General Grant and
the Republican party are morally responsible.
The people of Louisiana naturally felt that
if their State was co-equal to the other States
of the Federal Union, they were entitled to
the same right, as any other State, of choos,
;,,r nj fatn f1a;,
choice being rudely set aside by Il corrupt
Federal Judge, backed by the bayonets of
soldiers sent thether by General Grant, they
calmly appealed to Congress to restore them
to their rights. That body, however, was so
taken up with the Credit Mobilier investiga-
lions, and the increase of their own salaries,
that they suffered the session to expire, with
out doing anything to settle the difficulty, and
thus virtually sustained the President in his
daring assumption of dctatorial powers over
State of the Union. No pretext existed
that any infraction of the United States laws
had taken place, OF that any such was likely
to take place. The action of General Grant
was therefore unwarranted, illegal and most
dangerous precedent to be established in the
government. 1t is stretch Of authority for
which he ought to be impeached. His bold
and lawless action and the result it has caused
are simply the natural outgrowth and legiti-
mate effect of Republican principles. The
tendency of that party is towards centraliza-
tion-the concentration of all the powers of
government in the hands of an oligarchy OF
Washington. If Federal interference in
State affairs in Louisiana is permitted and
justified, how long may it be before similar
interference is attempted in other States, that
now boast that their government are chosen
by the will of their people?
