TIE losr GIRL FoUND.-On Friday of last
week Mr.. Parker, of Rosevile, while hunting
horses near Gold Hill, found the lost girl Miss
Coats who has been hunted for by hundreds of
men, in every direction, for the last three weeks
he had passed by the the shaft where her bod,
was concealed but something unexplainable
induced him to ride back, and looking in he saw
her feet at the top of the water The shaft
where the body was concealed is south of Auburn
rayne and west of Dutch ravine, and nearly in
sight Of Gold Hill 1t is about nine feet deep
and half full of water. The girl had a strong
English sack drawn over her head and down on
hts body and then bound below her hands with
strong twine her hands having been placed on
her breast. She was put in the shaft head
foremost, and then a heavy oak limb was
placed end foremost on the body to keep it
under water. Sheriff Dunnam had the shaft
bailed out to if anything could be found
that would give any clue whatever to this inhu-
man, eau 'eess and most revolving murder, but
nothing unusual was found-a few stones i'm
hedded in the mud and cavings off the sides
which was very natural, was all Justice Glow
Of Newcastle, held the inquest on the body at
which large number of witnesses were exam
med carefully but nothing in the world elected
that could lead to the slightest indication of who
perperated this great and revolving crime Drs.
DnIois, of Auburn, and Flint. of Lincoln, ex-
amned the body but could find no marks
wounds or bruises that could approximate a
cause of death and they both decided positivel,
that her person was not even violated as many
expected would be tn e case when the body was
found 1t is the opinion of some who saw the
body in the sack. that it, being almost new, and
Of strong and tightly woven cloth, might have
strangled her to DEATH but that no one man ever
could have placed it on her without struggle that
would have left marks Of violence on the body
beyond the above all is blank mystery shrouded
in mystery No one known of has left the
neqhharheod since the girl was missed Not an
iota Of p-)hable suspicion points TO any one
aul yet one of the most revolving, causcless mur
dcr5 to I've found n the annals of crime has
been c)ld-blo). dy committed in our midst
and the feniisl perpetrators live, move in open
day and asso '-:c with our people, secure against
the venG ,aneo cf the law or man. We could fiji
our paper with the specnlations over and about
this horrd crime but that would be idle and
worse than idle, at this time. Governor Booth
has offered a reward of $1,000 for the capture
and conviction of the murderer or murderers
and this may call ont detectives that may posi-
bly unrave the mystery and lead to the arrest
and punishment of the real criminals. For this
all here hope, but only hope family.

THE COST OF AGITATION.

Two thousand dollars city sevens at 81:
$4,000 gold bonds at 59l2; city apprcpria-
ton certificates dull and nominal"
Such are some Of the consequences of
the resolution not to obey the existing
State government, or to pay taxes for its
support. This policy was again Endorsed
by numerous assembhge on Monday
night. An injunction was granted yes
terday restraining certain large and lead.
ing merchants from carrying on or pursu-
ing their business in the city of New Or
leans until they have paid their license
tax for 1873, with all costs and penalties.
These are evidences that the government
intends TO test the capacity Of the law to
enforce itself.
Bat this alarming depreciation Of State
and city securities does not satisfy the
agitators. On the contrary, the Picoy."e
screams like sea bird with delight at the
turmoil OF the tempest. It seems disap-
pointed at the prospec, which at one time
appeared of the pacifcatjoH OF Grant par
ISL without bloodshed.
We have been waiting to hear that the
white men of Grant and the adjoining par
ishes had taken care Of the lawlessness in
their neighborhood.
If there be no posse of old soldiers in
that region capable Of clearing ont the
higher law brethren, then ku-klux Kellogg
may take them for incapables.
The same organ amuses itself because
the tax collectors DO not sell chairs and
tables. but "by injunction against the
transaction Of their business until their
licenses are paid, the license tax is sought
to be collected from our merchants and
business men,"
This is undoubtedly \ more decisive
measure than selling out the poor. Il
brings home to the whole community the
consequence of issuing State bonds and
resisting payment to holder in Germany
on the ground that the Governor of Lou
isana was not legally elected. The organ
of the regulators tantalizes the tax col
lector by pointing out the delays which
may be interposed before payment. Itthus
says, Don't you wish you may get it?"
Of course, the opinion Of the Superior
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1873-04-16

Court would be, that Kellogg's government
is the government. But that Judgment
may not be infallible, and the opinion of a
higher court can be asked, until even the
Supreme Court of the United States be re-
quested on the question of the constitution
atty of the government seeking TO enforce
the collection of the license.
Could such counsel be given by any one
either interested in the welfare of the city
or capable of comprehending it? These
legal delays can not hurt the tax collector
He has nothing at risk. His compensa-
ton may be even enhanced by the post
ponement. It can not hurt the executive
government, for certainly enough taxes
will be collected to pay its salaries. Ii
the abuse of the Fusionists is to be be-
lieyed, the executive incumbents would
not starve while money enough to subsist
them. and lawfully due, was passing
through their hands. But all the conse-
quence of this insane agitation still falls
upon the business men and business IN
terests of the city. Suppose either
of the great houses closed by the
tax collector resort to all the
courts. How long would it be before the
Supreme Court of the United States would
reach and decide the case? Here is the
slaughterhouse case, appealed certainly
more than a year ago, and Just decided.
Suppose one Of the large concerns closed
by Injunction: its rent. interest and dam
aged goods go on: its bills payable mature;
it's customers 90 elsewhere; it's spring
business is lost, not impossibly that of
another season may follow. The repre-
sentative Of the commercial interest con-
siders the ruin of these houses nothing
in comparison with the agitation
essential to install its friends
in Office. 1t was demonstrated yesterday
that Governor Kellogg neither made the
public debt nor passed the laws for its
collection. He found both ready made to
his hand. Il now appears that the conse-
quences of resisting the laws falls chiefly
upon those who resist or sanction resist
ance. In neighborhood combination
to starve out a miller by Withholding all
the grist, it is plain there will be sym
pathetic suffering among his customers.

BEGINNING THE LEGAL STRIFE.

Edward Booth. SENATOR" and several
others of the tribe of tax resisters. have
now an opportunity of trying the issue
between them and the State which is the
stronger. They have assumed an attitude
Of disobedience to the laws from which
they feel they can not retreat without dis
honor. The State government is COM
PEELED also to enforce the laws. or cease to
be government at all. Unless, therefore,
these agitators surrender at discretion and
pay the license tax demanded of them,
their stores will be taken charge of by the
sheriff, and sold for the deLts which the
owners refuse to pay. The time for
mincing matters. if it ever existed. has
passed, and in the language Of the
Fusion demagogues. faction. action.
action is the war cry Of the State as well
as its refractory citizens. Perhaps these
gentlemen may succeed in setting at de-
fance the power and authority of the
State. and asserting their alleged right to
sell hats. groceries and other merchan-
disc under the protection Of the laws
without contributing their share Of the
expense. Perhaps they may even go 50
far as to destroy the State government
altogether. and thus leave all their proper.
ty, their own as well as that of their neigh
bors. unprotected. But We have serious
doubts of their ability to do any thing of
the kind. The time for discussion has
passed, and action is the order of the
day. We learn that the policy hereafter
will be to strike first at the most violent
resisters. and make the brunt Of the
battle at the cost Of those most to blame
for the fearful decentralization ct morals
that prevails.
We are told by way of threat that the
cases Of the tax resisters will be carried up
to the Supreme Court OF the United States.
Without being able to see exactly how
they can do this. We say. all right, SO be
Il. Let them avail themselves of all their
legal rights. But if it is their intention to
go so far. the sooner they are started on
the road the better. Pending the litiga-
ton. however. they will suffer some incon-
venience. and be liable to no small loss on
account 0. inability to sue or defend in
our State courts. These threats Of carry
ing the litigation into the federal courts
are designed rather as bugbear instead
OF an actual intent. But. suppose they do
appeal to the federal courts. or attempt TO
do so. What then: They viii either fail
to obtain hearing, Or be defeated on the
trial. when they vii! be saddled with the
costs. interest and attorneys fees, in addi-
ton to the amount now demanded OF them.
In the meantime We insist upon it that our
officials shall GO to work with their sleeves
rolled up. and make these contumacious
deiinquents feel the weigh. osthe soye,eign
power OF the State.

TIE BETTER PART OF vALOR.

When it became noised abroad yester-
day that a deputy sheriff had laid his
usurping, tyrannical hand upon the trucu-
lent Booth. and no angry bolt of Jove
had been sent to paralyze the official,
positive panic prevailed among the tax
resisters. and a movement was made on
the City Hall and the tax collectors
offices, which were besieged by people
anxious to place themselves out of danger
We regard the movement as an encour-
aging sign.
