A DISCOVERY AND An ADMISSION.

As Baillie Nicol Jarvie said Of tie High

glimmering Of reason after ALL" SO We
may remark OF our irreconcilabIe con-
temporary. The PicCyune has for many
months past insisted tina. the whole
burden Of rascality was borne by the Re-
publican party, and that nothing was
necessary for the publication Of our
councils save their evictions from Office
and the installing Of the Democratic
puritans in their place. I. has now dis

The great auction sale of pianos takes
place to-day at half-past twelve O'Clock at
Blackmars, No. 20l Canal street. Fifteen
splendid new pianos. grand, upright and
square, from the well-known factories of
Chickering Steinway, knabe, BELL
Treble" Grovestein, Emerson and Guild,
together with number of organs and me-
lode ons, will be sold to the highest bidder.
Such an opportunity to buy the best pianos
at your own price does not happen twice in
a life time, and has only occurred now on
account of the necessity of making dlvi-
sion of the assets of the former firm.

lence. An appeal to sectionalism by So
cial ostracism of those who come from
abroad.
3. A refusal to acknowledge those as
citizens who have been made so by the
letter of the constitution.
4. To make New Orleans, like the low
countries of Europe. the ground where
all the conflicts of party are to be fought
out.
5. A systematic abuse Of cur repub-
lican government. an appeal for the in
tervention and protectorate Of foreign
power not able to take care of itself, and
an lawful squirting toward monarchy
which one grand old republican believer
in the majesty Of the people held in
such dread and suspicion.
These are succinct allegations Of the
political insanity Of which the Southern
people complain. The effect of this in
sane ambition. or ambitious insanity, has
been to keep the South separated from
the other and governing portion Of the
Union. 1t deprives the South of just
share of the government aid. 1t divides
the people Of the South itself, and. as
alleged by many Southern men. to throw
the guidance of public affairs into the
hands Of voters not yet qualified for their
trust. or Of representatives without
adequate interest in the public welfare.
The strategy Of the clique involves a
degree Of violence. In cleaning out
the carpet-baggers in twenty-four hours.
immigrants who do not speak the Ian
guage fear they might be hung OF shot
without the capacity to explain.
In counseling an agitation after
which three hundred and fifty abie-oodied
laborers are missing from the cotton
fields. and the whole State put under
federal proclamation, capitalists remeu,-
ber the immense demand for their money
at home and in other countries, and with
draw or withhold investment IL Louisi-
ana commerce or public securities at ten
to twenty per cent, to purchase tie solid
obligations Of Holland at three per cent.
We need not recapitulate these evil
dences Of insanity to prove that those who
claim 1.-THE right divine to govern the
South are politically non compos mentis.
We refer to the same record to show that
these men are Of dangerous and desperate
purposes. Of the clique it should be said,
as Juvenal tells US was the rule with
bad bull in his day, habe! tnnuna in cornu.
It should be marked, known and avoided.
1t has been and is now doing more mis-
chief than the war. for it renders the sav.
ages of the war irreparable.
Let. then. the people Of the South. who
have the power and jurisdiction. and to
whom alone it is given to bind and loose
its own men for political merit OF defec-
ton, repudiate and dethrone this insane
and impotent pretension to govern them.
Let them order writ Of inquiry into the
ability of the Democracy to take care Of
itself or others. Let the clique be ordered
into the close confinement Of exclusion
from politics. the exciting cause Of its
malady and its mischief ; and above all.
let it be put on the extreme low diet of
total abstinence from all Office. When it
shall renounce its pretensions TO command
people who will no longer bear its pre-
posterous hallucinations. its members can
resume that position in public affairs to
which whatsoever merit they may ;ndiy;d-
ually possess may entitle them.

AN APPEAL TO HONOR.

Mr.. L n. Marks. in second letter vim
dicatirg his course on unifcation. says:
Upon the change of the form Of the oath
in the State constitution, and Cn the pas
sage of the general amnesty bill by Con
gress, l promptly renewed my citizenship.
registered as vO-er. took the oath to sup
port the constitution of the State. and in
tend to keep that oath. And if every other
man in Louisiana, who took that oath. will
do the same. we shall soon have peace,
prosperity and good government IN the
State.
The government of the United States
has twice granted amnesty-the first to
those of its own citizens who resisted the
war of independence. the second to those
who attempted to secede from the Union.
It may be said that this was its duty.
Very true; bu: no other government has
ever, so far as We know. done the same
thing. But is there no correlative obliga-
ton on the part Of the amnestied per
sons: Undoubtedly. It would be to
maintain the government as established.
and show sense Of the obligation i'm
posed by the &C. of beneyolence or duty,
just as it may be esteemed. Some of
those involved in the unifcation move
ment do not present very graceful fig
ure. They have almost avowed their pur-
pose to employ this means when all others
had failed to divide the colored peo-
pie. Now it is proposed to persuade
the people of mixed blood to
abandon tho negroes. resign the posts
they have received at the hands Of the
Republican party snd rely on the men Of
the meal tub to do better by them. These
tricks are utterly vain. They have served
to convince the coored people that right
and safety can alone be found in tho Re-
publican party. From notification to
unifcation was an immense stride. It
has been taken. and seems now to have
been taken in vain. Mr.. Marks properly
reminds all who have taken an oath to
support the constitution OF the State that
this oath implies an obligation to obey
the laws. This will have its effect
upon the numerous class which
has assumed this obligation. There is
however, quite a number who have taken
no such incumbrance of citizenship, and
yet are among the most active in opposing
the law. There was one subject Of her
most maternal majesty who. being called
OF to pay some sort of license tax, de-
nounced the government of Louisiana as
wholly insupportable. We have good
many temporarily resident in New Or
leans who follow this alien example.
Americans, however, who take IN oath to
supper: government are understood to
comprehend its obligations and comply
with them. SO thinks Mr.. l. n. Marks,
and we think he is correct in his opinion.
