UnifcatiOn.

The new movement has formed the chief
political topic for several weeks 1t has
been thoroughly discussed pro and con and
yet is far from accomplishing the purpose
of its organization, provided that purpose
was solely and simply to organize third
party in this State, without reference to
political issues, and to establish the rule of
honesty and Justice. If, however, as the
Republican leaders declare, it is only de-
vice to influence public opinion at the
North, and Through it the action of Con-
gress upon the Louisiana question at its
next session, we are not prepared to say
that it has proved an utter failure, for the
bold avowal of equal rights doctrine by
such men as Beauregard, Marks, MOutOn
and Hebert has startled the country as if
by an electric shock, and it undoubtedly
will operate to modify the extreme views
of politicians of all parties.
But as political movement, let unifica-
ton go down or up, it can reflect no dis
credit upon its authors and it has planted
good seed that cannot be uprooted. 1t has
operated to check race asperities, and to
bring out cordial union sentiment that
will be felt in all future elections, and to
this extent it has been profitable.
We incline to the belief that it is impos-
slole TO move OUTSIDE Oh tWO uiStuctiy UT
ganized parties that must now and forever
compete for the popular vote-one that
aims to 90 ahead, the other to linger be-
hind with the memories and institution of
the past-both useful and inseparable, dat
ing their existence from time immemorial.
And now since Messrs. Beauregard and
Marks have committed themselves to new
departure, and have evinced every possible
Indication of sincerity, must they not con-
sistently accept union with that political
organization nearest in conformity with
their viewsf And what organization is
thati Will they follow Longstreet and
Mosby into the Republican partyi This
would appear to US logical result, and
perhaps argue well for the future. Instead
Of two parties, one allied to sectional inter-
ests and representing the property holder
and taxpayers-the other being decried as
a horde of carpet bag adventures, whose
interests are foreign to good ends-we shall
have both controlled and led by natives to
the manor born, and alike honorable in
motives. All speed to that day, we say,
and down with narrow views and prejudi-
ces that prevent its consummation.| Cres-

The WARRANT WAR.-We gave
last week the result Of the financial
squabble between the State Auditor
and Treasurer, in which the former
triumphed, and this week we copy
from New Orleans papers articles
pro and con on the subject. The
Republican, Times and Crescent CITY,
the last claiming to be a strictly
neutral paper, taking sides with
the Auditor, and the Herald defend

Small Farms in Louisiana
OLD PLANK IN A NEW PLATFORM.

Allnding to the uniication resolution in
reference to small farms; the st. Charles
Herald says:
When our large lanled proprietors wi
be willing to divide their plantations into
small lots, and give the poor man q chance
in the race OF Lire, Louisiana will have
more taxable property, the heavy bundens
now imposed to meet the demands of the
government win be proportionally reduced,
capital will come among us, new life and
energy be infused in our population, and a
happy change from poverty to prosperity
will manifest itself. We are glad to see
that the new pssrty, intended to "unify"
our people, has spoken out ON this question,
and we trust that planters and capitalists
will in good faith carry out the principle Of
allowing every person who is able and
willing to own and cultivate small farm
of his own to dc 30.
The principle has been practically car
ried into effect in our locality for the past
year and half. The plantation on which
our village is located was divided into
small lots by ex-Gov. HAHN, in the winter
of 1S71-72, and many lots were sold on a
small cash payment and long credit for the
balance of the purchase price, to poor peo-
pie, white and black. We have noticed
here that as soon as colored people acquire
real estate, no mattsr how Insignificant in
size or value, fix up their shanty, erect q
chicken house, plant few trees, ETC., they
become different people-they feel more
honestly interested in public affairs, study
the question of State and parish taxation,
talk against unfaithful officers, and show
an honorable and conservative tendency.

The Texas Colored Convention.

The colored men OF Texas have
lately held convention at Bren-
ham in that State, (which the New
York Times says, that no more en-
couraging sign Of promise and pro-
gress has before been seen in the
South, not only for the colored por-
ton of her population, but for all
who have perception to note the
progress of inevitable events, and
learn and profit by it. 1t was prov
ed by official records, from the diff
ferent counties, that taxable prop.
ty mostly real estate assessed at
s2,076,OOO, was owned by colored
people, and that church property to
the amount of 800, 900, was owned
by different denominations of the
colored race. This statement the
Times regards as absolutely marvel
Gus, when it is recollected that eight
years ago these people took liberty
associated with perfect poverty.
The Times also highly commends
and applauds the tone of the adj
dress issued, of which the following
paragraphs are specimens:
Notwithstanding all that we, the color
ed people of the State, have suffered at the
hands Ofour white fellow-citizens, We cher
ish toward them no animosities, and will
hail with satisfaction any manifestation ON
their part Of a disposition to abate their
prejudices, and concede to us willingly all
those rights and privileges to sweeten the
endowment of civil life. There is no intelli-
gent man in the State who should not dis
Germ at a glance that the enemies of the
colored men willfully abuse the public
mind when they assert that we are aspi-
rants for social privileges, and are DESTROYS
of promoting legislation of character that
will effect it. We certainly are not 80 fool.
ish as to imagine that any law could be
| framed that could effect such an object"
Upon another point of equalinterest they
say:
at is misfortune for both races that
Southern white men seem determined to
leave their colored fellow-citizens nothing
| to be grateful for. Every night we now
| enjoy has been forced from their grasp, in
the face of stern opposition and openly
expressed hatred. Had even part enow
enjoy been voluntarily conceded, the mas
of colored people would have patiently
waited until time and education fitted
them for the rest, and many of the evils O
| legislation to which the South has been ex
posed could have been avoided.
These brief extracts the Time
says:
Are sufficient to show the character o
this address, and the action of the conven
ton Throughout was in its spirit Whit tn
evidence afforded by This notable assembl.
before us, we must admit that the negroe
are equal to the responsibilities of the posi-
tions they have been given. If the white
would meet them only half way, Their
would be real ''unification," instead o
| that delusive one General Beauregard pro
poses; and the South would enter at ono
on career of unexampled prosperity.

A POLITICAL CALM.-Louisiana is now en-
joying the delights of a political calm. It
is due in some degree to the proclamation
of President Grant; partly to the concilito-
ry course pursued by Governor Kellogg,
who has wisely gone out Of the republican
ranks to seek good men for appointment to
responsible positions; but mainly to the
settled determination of the people to let
politics and politicians along and devote
themselves to useful and honorable occu-
pations. There is no election pending, and
none will take place till November of next
year, and so We hope this political calm
Those who compose the State and city, adj
est from compulsion, if not from inclina-
ton.

Do SOA6ETHNG.-There are too many I'M
employed young men is this as well az
other cities. They do themselves and others
injustice by not seeking employment out :
side of the city, where there is room enough
for all. New Orleans is crowded with Office
seekers and applicants for places as clerks
and statesmen, while in Louisiana there arc
thousands of acres of land of unexampied
fertility, lying neglected and uncultivatcd.
Rather than do nothing in the city il is in
finitcly better for unemployed men to get
small farms in the country and cultivats
them on shares. Hard work would soil tie
hands, but the heart would be kept pure.
And then there would be the satisfaction
of doing something to promote the prosperi-
ty of LOuisiana.-C Crescent City.

Mr.. Boarman, of Caddo, the only men,
Der of Congress elected on the Fusion tick
ct. who was admitted to bis seat in the
United States Congress, is in this city. Mr..
Boarman is a studious politician, and has
had a larger experience and field of Obser-
walton than most of his party, in regard to
the popular sentiment respecting the poll
CIV and strategy, which it is believed will
secure some relief for our State.
His conviction is that the honest white
citizens of the State will never be abe to
obtain Justice and fair share in the adj
ministration of the State until they cease
all opposition to the Federal Executive
and become virtually "part and parcel OF
the Administration party. Then, and on
ly then, will they be allowed hearing at
Washington. All other party organizations
should be discarded and abandoned. Our
honest citizens should suppress all their
emotions, conquer al their prejudices and
passions, kneel to the cap of Gesler, and
hurrah for Grant and the third term. Then
they will present solid front at Washing
ton, and may obtain any number of favors,
even to the extent of subsidies for foreign
steam lines, for railroads, canals, large ap-
propriations for the building of levees and
the opening of the mouth of the MISSISSIPPI
pi. When we get these, why need we both
er ourselves about the Presidency
If Grant is elected third term, we are
then safe; if he is not, and the opposition
party triumphs, so much the better for us.
1t is heads win, tails you lose. But, as
the honorable gentleman is at present in
our city, we may be talking a liberty in
thus rendering views which might be much
more lucidly presented by himself.

~ By reference to the advertise
ment of the Excelsior Livery Stable,
it will be seen that o change has
been made in the management, as
A. M. Osgood, Esq, formerly the
popular clerk of the Hodge and
other boats, now holds the guiding
reins. If Mr.. Osgood gives as much
satisfaction on land as he did on
water, there will be no cause of re-
gret at the change.
