aggravated horrors. The courthouse was
set on fire and the negroes were shot down
as they attempted to escape from the
flames From sixty to one hundred are
said to have been killed, and five or six
white men were either killed or wounded
This the Tribune attributes to the pur-
pose of the federal government, to deliver
the State government into the hands Of
IAN ignorant and degraded people like
the negroes Of the remote parishes otLou-
isiana." Then should not the present con-
ductors of the Tribune acknowledge that
the teachings Of Horace Greeley were
wrong? Why should he have advocated
the immediate freedom and elevation to
the Just rights of freemen to Ignorant
and degraded people like the negroes Of
louisiana" Why intrust such a people
with a power to administer government
when thevacould be frightened with 'the
renewal of slavery" by the ''old slave
owners?" Here is the bloody chasm
which the Tribune aided to open:
The whites are not 80 utterly crushed
aud broken that they will bear negro usup-
alton, however they may submit to legal
authority The blacks will not endure
massacre and outrage in State where they
hold political predonderance: Let the
| flames of hostility be once lighted between
the two classes, and no one can toreteu the
misfortunes that must follow.
No. Horace Greeley would never lave
so abandoned, nor SO turned against those
for whom he had done SO much. He
would never have thus admitted his whole
life effort to have been an error. For what
was so much blood and ruin of civil war?
To carry out his principles; and now his
ure, since the emancipated are too ''igno-
rant and degraded" to exercise the inner
itance acquired by this bloody litigation.
The Tribune Of the present delivers over
the clients Of the Tribune of the past to the
secular arm, thus:
The civil authorities must pursue the
| authors Of these Red river disorders, and
punish them with the utmost severity,
whether whites or blacks, Republicans or
Democrats.
There is either duty or responsible
ty 10 be met by the Tribune, 1t can never
discharge itself Of this solemn obligation
by abandoning in the wilderness the
people whom it had brought out of bond
age through the Red sea of civil war. Let
'the bruised arms" of the old Tribune be
chung up as monuments" Or handed
over to its opponents as trophies The
wearer Of the Greeley mantle should be
either fit to fill it out or send it to the
''olI Go magazine of exploded theories.

TOO MUCH POWER. CONCEDED.

From having persistently denied to
Governor Kellogg the right to exercise
any power at all, the Picaytne now comes
in aud insists upon Lis having more than
lie claims. Upon the hypothesis that tie
Governor had commissioned Nash as
sheriff OF Grant parish, tie Fusion organ
is ready to concele to this appointee, even
before be has qualified or been recognized
in his official capacity lyany Of the courts
of the parish, the right to lead an army
of invasion for the purpose Of Selling the
public Offices by force and giving over
the custodians to indscriminate massacre.
Instead Of defending such acts by such
pre.ense, the PtcaHtne would be justified
in censuring the Governor if he had in
any manner consented to them. To urge
in defense of tLat Lorrid massacre sup
posititious appointment and commission
is to SOW the utterly dcfenseless position
OF the perpetrators.
We are ready at all times to give full
credit to tie lawful acts Of Governor kel-
logs, and to strengthen his hands IN the
discharge of his very orerous duties; but
we do lot go SO far as to concede to him
the right to authorize the atrocities of this
pseudo sheriff And it has not heretofore
been the custom Of the Fusion or Demo-
cratic journals to concede such unlimited
powers to Republican appointees. Had
Nasl's victims belonged to the other
party, 70 commission that could be in-
vented would be sufficient to screen him
from the censure Of these organs. IS he
does not happen to have a commission at
all, lie appears simply in the light of an
unofficial offender against tie laws.

POLITICS AND COMMERCE,

Our people Lave had an opportunity
of seeing the difference between the
effect OF perpetual political strife
and the assemblage Of citizers and
strangers intent only upon making each
other happy. Commerce consists il the
c3nccurse and intercourse of numbers,
politics in the separation and antagoni5m
of numbers. Politics is ali epidemic. 1t
drives away all vLo can escape Il cx-
c,udes all who can stay away. Commerce
encourages BY appeals to interest, con-
veycd by kindness. Politics was repre-
scented at Jackson square, VIXEN the roru-
lace fei and families closed their doors,
travellers avoided New OrleaL5 and
strangers abandoned the city with the
first trains. The Fair Grounds Iepre-
sent tie commercial idea. len thousand
men. women ana children assembled t.
enjoy themselves: mechanics and manu-
facturers from abroad exhibit their wares;
such res0llte strangers as have 10 fear Ct
a sudden riot, we are sorry there were Lot
more of them preseut-thi5 is scene in
which every one is pleased and happy.
The most ultra tax-resistant shakes hands
with tie most remote Yankee, and the
half dollar Of tie darkey is as welcome to
the g}teheeper as that of the purest eau
casian See, then, the difference between
hatred and fraternity. The dread Of riots
and epidemics has driven away commerce
and capital enough to Lave advanced tie
value Of property instead Of having re-
duced our rate Of assessment nearly TWEEN
ty-fve per cent. Let Us lave peace, and
prosperity Will inevitably and inmedi-
atelE follow.

TIE MANTLE OF GREELEY.

There are letters published III the
Tribune to show that journal as standing
on the same ground and advocating the
same doctrine as it did when It's founder
made it the organ Of freedom to tie soul
and soil Of America. This is, however, a
device to preserve tie popularity Of Mr..
Greeley, while it discagd- his principles.
Tie present doctrines Of the IUJsme throw
open condemnation on its former course.
Mr.. Greeley always couteuded that the
negroes were capable Of participating in
their own government. He was the iInO-
cent and earnest sympatLizer il tLeir al

OF their future happiness. What would
