Cause and Effect In New Orleans.
There is good sense in the subjoined arti-

There is good sense in the suboined arti-
Gle from the Houston Union:
We begin to think that the notoriety of
New Orleans for bad government must be
owing to something wrong in the people.
Perhaps it would be unjust to say that its
business classes are composed largely of
men who have gone there, not to grow with
the growth of the city, helping and being
helped, bnt to make fortunes by hook and
crook. Nevertheless, we have heard New
Orleans business men, who were not Re-
pubhuans, Dragging on Warmoth's shrewd
rascaslty IN a way which led US to believe
that they would like very much TO initiate
it in their oTn spheres of operation.
But if such charge as that just sug-
gested would be unjust, we believe it Is
true that the people of New Orleans make
nincompoops of themselves, and invite all
the troubles that come upon them, by their
maudlin devotion to the lost cause" and
by following unteachable teachers of obso-
lete Confederate politics. Look, for ex-
ample, at an article in Saturdays Pjeayune,
which, after clarifying the South and South
ern craftsmanship and conduct as absO-
lutey perfect, and denouncing every thing
Northern as tyrannical and corrupt con
cludes thus
The war ended, their 1.-THE Northernj
craftsmanship rivals its incipiencr and con
y
enslave themselves. The hatred towards
the South IS used to accomplish this pur-
pose; and by the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments to the constitution, passed by
force and fraud, they have made their long
sought for policy Of consolidation triumph
ant; and despOtlsm now relgns in the
United States the most odious and oppres-
sive in christendOm. 1t is despotism OF
the money power. 1t is a despotism of sec
tons. 1t is a despOtism of numbers, with
out wisdom, and without remorse. There is
the fruit of Northern craftsmanship! Rev
MISUNDERSTANDING"
Now, we can lot help thinking that a
people who feed on such views as these,
prepare themselves to be victims of enter
prsing rascality, just as a weak, wishy
washy constitution prepares man for all
sorts of floating diseases. We don't wonder
that New Orleans is the butt of the world
for lack of enterprise, just as she is for bad
government. She is stuck in the mud OF
etfete notions and sentiments, and would
probably spend more money to get up
tribute to JEFF Davis, or to a piece of the
old banner OF the Tigerville ruffians, than to
build railroad upon which the life of her
commerce is dependent. A people who
have no more common sense than to be
ruled at this time of day by old South Caro-
lima politics, by the Idea that nothing right
has been done since the days of Calhoun
and Yancey and by narrow prejudice
against everything Northern, deserve no
pity, either for their commercial failures or
for any political ENHANCEMENT, no matter
how disastrous, in which they may involve
themselves.

excellent style of conducting the so1ree.
