PRAYERS FOR RAIN.

4 destructive fire has been raging re-
Gently in tie eastern portion Of Massa-
chusetts. Al the latest accounts 1t had
lasted for eight days, and laid bare not
less than sixty square miles OF territory,
sometimes presenting the appalling spec
tacIe of burning mass eight miles III
length. Against this fearful eontiagratlon
human power had thus far been exerted
in vain. Rain, and that in copious guam
titles. seemed the only hope. 10 obtain
this it was decided to offer up prayers IN
the various churches.
This in the very heart Of modern civil
cation, in the enlightened community OF
Massachusetts,, and, so far as We learn.
without protest! Prayers for rain-what
is the significance Of such an act? what
the implied faith of those who engage in
it: are the people of Massachusetts, fetish
wor5birors, regarding the powers Of ma

and malicious spirits, who vent their rage

FACTS AND FIGURES.

If the census figures as recently given
in Senator Vests letter be correct, and if,
as has always been maintained by our op-
ponents all the wealth and intelligence
be on the side of the Democracy, the prob
lem of how to control the required fifteen
thousand votes to make the beam kick in
favor of those "best calculated to admin
lister on the public affairs OF the State and
guard the interests and welfare of its in
habitants." can not be very difficult to
solve
That something is wanted is evident,
else how could it be that all this time.
notwithstanding such sinewy and allur-
ing outfit as money and brains on the one
side, and SO much poverty and depend
ence Oh the other. the Democrats have
not and could not "pluck allegiance from
mems hearts," nor receive loud shouts
and salutations' from even the paltry
number Of tifteer thousand out Of three
hundred and sixty thousand colored IN
habitants --colored people, too. who ma
turally love. and always did love. the old
white folks?
Gentlemen, you have not been able to
inspire the colored man with confidence in
YOU. Yield to him his rights in truth and
candor. help him to guard his rights. and
yot. can be masters Of the situation.
The first thing is to be deserving. Equal
rights and the ,reIfare of the ,rhole popula-
ton, is what the statesman must make his
study. his-ininciple.
It is the spirit of the age. Messrs. Marks
and Beauregard have sounded the key

A MORSEL TO ROLL.

The New York World publishes the
elaborate commercial defamation with
which "Mr. E. Booth. Senator" has
thought proper to visit this unfortunate
city. The World thus makes a double
argument against rival city in trade
and political party which it first at
tempted to divide and next to destroy.
Here is how 'the results of Kellogg s
anarchy in Louisiana are summed up by
Mr.. Booth, Of New Orleans. a prominent
Fusion SENATOR
The State bonds are at about thirty: the
city bonds are at about sixty. General bust
ness Is disappearing so fast that there are
over ten thousand vacant habitable proper
ties and stores now in New Orleans, one
auction firm alone having recently specified
by name and location two hundred and
ninety-fve such, with the additional words
of "many others" in their hands-stores,
dwellings. warehouses and other premises.
Eight thousand white mechanics
have left New Orleans during the past few
months. No building and little repairing is
going on; no new business starting no any
thing but taxes, and suits, and threats, and
seizures. and inHammatory, false appeals.
We may well suppose that if a mechanic
was seeking place for the exercise of his
industry, or capitalist for the invest
ment of his money. either would give

4 NORLE EXAMPLE.

Hero worship is virtue easily carried
to excess, leading the worshiper to initiate
not only the noble traits but the follies
and eccentricities, sometimes even the
vices Of the hero. When confined to the
appreciation and imitation of those quail
ties which are essentially heroic. this vir-
tue can hardly be carried to excess. There
is no danger of men becoming too mag
unanimous. too forbearing, too benevolent
These reflections are suggested by the re-
cent perusal Of an anecdote of General
Lee, showing the magnanimous stand
taken by him toward the government
after the war. Now, whatever those who
adhered to the national cause during that
conflict may think of General Lees act in
opposing it, no candid man will dispute
the heroism of his character or impugn
the purity Of his intentions. His conduct
and opinions. then, subsequently to the
establishment of peace, on the question of
the relations of the people he represented
toward the national government are worthy
of respectful and general consideration.
To those people themselves they should
have peculiar weight. inasmuch as it is
not supposable for a moment that he
would adopt any view derogatory to their
dignity or consistency.
With these predatory remarks. We call
the attention of our readers to the follow
ing selection from the recent sketch of
General Lee published in the Edinburg
Ee,ie,-, describing his course after the war:
Two objects only Lee seemed to have left
during these years OF retirement: the one,
to lead his cOuntrymen back to the Union,
against which he had fought with such ter
ribe effect: the other. to make of those I'M
der his charge men who would grow up to
do honor to it. OF the many anecdotes Of
tered us by Mr.. Cooke and other Nirginian
writers, one or two Will suthce to illustrate
the spirit of his life.
This is one of our old soldiers who is in
necessity" were his words to friend who
discovered him in the act of relieving
broken down waytaring man. and adding
kindly words to his gift. ''He fought on
the other side," he added in a whisper, ".but
we must not think Of that" To a lady
one of the many widowed IN the war-whO,
on bringing her sons to the college, burst
out into a strain of bitterness against the
North. he said. with a gentleness which
gave the more force to his rebuke: Madam.
do not train up your children in hos
tility TO the government of the United
States. Remember we are one country
now. Pray dismiss from your mind all sec
tional feeling, and bring them up to be,
above all, Americans" And all this was

by which he broke with the Union remained

abandoned by her. Once she gave the
province away without consulting its
wishes and without receiving any compen-
sation. Once she permitted the King of
Spain to butcher some of her best colonial
citizens for the crime Of tilial devotion to
their native government. Again, France
reacquired Louisiana, but for a moment
to sell it for few sacks Of francs. The
United States took to her breast this aban-
doned offspring Of the despotism. She
nursed, reared. defended it. She created
an empire out of the swamp and the will
dern ess. There is no reason to suppose
Fra nee has much sympathy for child
which she left on the door step of Spain,
and again bartered away for a tritle We
need not, however, argue proposition
which has been thus renounced as i'm
possible Of execution, but it may be
observed that the people which
now form thirteen States and nine
territories upon the ground granted by
rance, are dill tutAtltu w oCl0AAuAuO
whe ther their rights of person, property
or religion have been violated. Should
not these people or the States which they
compose, have a vote or say on the pro-
posed interposition of foreign power?
If the question were put to the vote even
in that portion of the ceded territory now
called Louisiana the numbers would pre-
ponderate against<giving up the govern
ment of the United States. Even the
emancipated race have read that ten years
after slavery had been abolished in st.
Domingo. France sent an army and
fleet to re-establish the relations of
practical bondage. The colored racein st.
Domingo defeated the armies and fleets
of France and so established their own
independence This alone would make
the majority of Louisiana voters doubt the
fidelity of France to the cause Of liberty
and equality. The possibility that it would
constitute an Algerine colony here, and
commit its government to the Fusion lead
ers. and its public printing to our ire
pressible neighbor Of the Picaytne would
settle the matter. We need not recapitu-
late the obstacles, to satisfy our neighbor
that the assent of France to its proposal
would be the most insignificant step to-
ward success.
We apologize to our readers for an ex-
tended notice of an admitted absurditX,
1t is to be regretted that determined dis
content with domestic affairs, and an
avowed purpose to agitate for change Of
administration, by means Of disaffection,
turbulence and violence, should lead
journal published in America to discuss
such ridiculous remedies.

A PLEA FOR NEW YORK,
The New York Times says:

The New York Times says:
We live in cosmopolitan city: :te gate.
are open to all the world, and many thou
sands flock into it who have led reckle s.
lives. who have perhaps broken the laws III
their native lands, and who come here to
start afresh in the world. Many of then,
find crime cOngenial to their habits and
pursuits-they are let loose upon wealthy
community. and there is only a slender
police force standing between them and OF.
lives and property.
Identically the same reason may be al
legged why New Orleans is also made the
parade ground of so much foreign rascal
ity. People travel thousands of miles to
violate the laws in cosmopolitan city.
They receive fabulous accounts Of the
facilities for dishonest gains. They find
the population not quite so easily robbed
as had been anticipated and deliver them.
selves over to desperation and all manner Of
crimes against person and property. The
permanent population Of New Orleans i,
as quiet and law abiding as any in the
Union. 1t is due almost entirely to the
reckless thousands who come here as to
New York. or San Francisco, simply be.
cause there is. no where else left for them
to go to. ..

unaltered. For. when asked directly by
the Reconstruction Committee, what are
your own personal views on the question:!
of the Orlglna, act OF secession !. ne
replied unhesitatingly: 1T was my view
that the act of Virginia in withdrawing
herself from the United States carried me
along with it as a citizen of Virginia, and
that her laws and acts were binding on
me-" The past tense here being plainly
employed to signify. what he constantly
expressed in private, that the arbl:rament
of the sword to which the seeding States
had appealed had Guenched the supposed
rights claimed by them before the wag
without affecting their original legitimacy.
1t thus appears that the hero o: the re-
bellion knew how TO submit as magn.ni
mously as he had Tough. braveiy. To
enlar55 e upon bis wise and noble words
would be supererogatory. We simply
commend them to the consideration of
such of our fellow citizens as still cherish
feelings of hostility toward the govern
ment. and instil such feelings into the
minds of their children, instead of bring
ing them up to be, ''above all, Americans.
In this connection We can not but ex-
press our regret that General Lee did not
make a public declaration of his senti-
ments in the form Of All address to his
fellow-citizens recently in arms with him.
Modesty, the usual companion of distin-
suished bravery, no doubt prevented his
seeing the need or the wisdom of such
step: but it is almost certain that had he
done so. much subsequent trouble. dis
content and bloodshed might have been
avoided. Even now much good may be
effected if those who revere him as their
hero will accept him likewise as their
teacher. and, taking to heart his memora-
BILE words, will act up to them in sincerity
and good faith.
