Gss. Beauregara,s "VAiaeatiOn" scheme Is moi
relishsd by either poDACal party in New Orleans
over much. The Radical leaders charge that it il
"a Democratic dodge 70 get into power, and Ous'
the negroes and Scallawags. The ComNer-
ciol Advertiser says the YUniReTs" promise "a
broad sentiment of natiOpAlty, which shall EN-
brace the whole eounHyAnd uphold the nag o.
the Union" They PTetnise the removal ot All
preludices the equal Distribution Of oflees, the
JUnlfCaion Of the people, and the recognition Of
the claims of brotherhood. Surely nothing could
be Of larger omen than this. BsE1 1t 70 a cOmPac
seh'oh IL ao'R Be erneediHgIy 0'e''h 70 carry cut
/ tR SIS entirety.
Aud then the Corap.lfcia' goes on To note the
pertinent fact that the true valuation Of LouisS
real aud personal estate was e82S, s1,OOO, by
the census oi 1871. or this the negroes own
$40,0 .0,0co, or one e-eighth. The county IN which
New Orleans is is credited with valuation Of
SlS5 COO 00O and OfthiH the negroes oWn Sl4yOO1-
600, or One-thiTteenth.
Again, ia It's neKt issue, the Commercial gives
colder comfoTt thus:
The BeaurcgaId manifesto substantially tenders
the blacks Of Louisiana 'sOcial equality" That
IS the one thing the sigRfys bGve not The POsoer 70
c0HfsT. Political aud civil equality is already
guaunteei-beyORd tbs IL IS iaspossibls TO 90.
Human nature has ordinances that are omnipo-
tent In the premises, aud that they forbid the iu
nllment Of The promise here held forth, none
know better than those who propose 70 violate
them.
This is looking the question fair in the face.
The object Of the neguoos, scallaWags and carpet
bsgRersis not more 10 obtain 'socal equality than
larger share Of the accredited valuation. They
havs the najority, and only waiting 70 Sc ths
way open to reach the largest sum nAned above.
They are using it new greatly to their own bsnsat
BY assessing heavy taxes for the benefit Of the ne
groes su1 Radical politicians But that dosa not
satisfy the rapaciiy Of the leaders, and they Wish
to absorb the principal BY the issue Of City and
State bonds, which they will sell aud use the pro
ceeds for their own advantage, and leave the
bOnds to be paid By the whites ct their leisure.
BeauregsTd ne doubt recognizes fully the posi-
ton in VIII n the whites are placed by the acts Of
Grant and his brother-in-lAW Cesey, and hopes 20
save sOmsthing BY @DsliAg out" to thS negroes,
Bat the ScAlIaWAgs have the inside track, and will
ne doubt, with the AID Of the Wash 'ngtOn Schem-
era head him on.
The New Orleans, Herald sets ferth the Objee-
tons 10 the moVemen'S Itsays:
The uniRcation moysment, ~ represented By
the committee Of self-oOnstituted, though very re-
Epectable representative Of the two races, en-
counters these difficulties, which as faithful
chronicleH, we feel bound to notice. They
are
Fiist-ThAt the citizens UbO are required %
make serious sclifces in order 10 carry out the
pIincipels aVoRded BY the eOmbinAtinn, were no
parties thereto, fad were not represented in the
consultation.
They are hotel-kssP8, the owners Of packets, ths
propTsetorn Of saloons and boarding g-hOuseB, Of
theatres, Of found. es, etc. These citizens re-
present that, 70 surrender their ght Of Eelocting
their customers and OF discrimiBating on such 4
grounds - they may think, or Rs popular pre-
ludioe demands, would involve them IN . very /
great loss, and that, whist they submit 10 and
scqviesce in the provisions Of The Constitution
aud Law, they are unable to bear the burden Of
loss and damage which will result 10 them from |
yielding 10 the extreme demsuds Of the Uni6ers. |
The Delaware Uni6es are greatly elAted with !
the new movement. sud would be glad 10 follow |
in the sane line.
