There seems to be little prospect or an i'm
mediate improvement in tho demand for any horses the
value of which reaches beyond 500 500 per head and
even the figures mentioned paid for prime truck
horses only while sound wOFk-0rses OF ordinary quail
ity do not command average OF SlGj. The de-
pressing n6uenco Of the late great espe
cally felt in the market for fine coachh0rses and it
were seemingly idle TO expect any trade IN this direction
until tie difficulty OF showing of the merits OF vaiua

an 'sirrepressible conflict" This position,
we have reason to hope, will be certified
by the white and colored members of our
State Legislature, in their own language,
sustained by their own adequate argument.
.. As q labor question there are known
to us certain leading sugar planters who
look upon the emancipation Of the slaves
of Cuba as the extinction of disciplined
labor engaged in the production of sta
pie rival to their own product. They are
Of opinion that the relaxation of compul-
sorry labor in country in which subsist-
ence and clothing would be SO cheap will
tend to diminish the quantity Of common
staple produced, and to enhance its price.
We are aware that this expectation Of in
creased sugar cost may not suit the con-
sumner. We are but stating sentiment
here. No doubt each philanthropist
would contribute the price Of a lump of
sugar, yard of cotton, chew OF tobacco,
or cigar, towards the universal freedom
of manhood from labor bondage. If they
will not they are poor philanthropists,
and should be made to pay their proper
ton to noble object.
3. The HeStern produce interest here Las
for years languished under the oppressive
Spanish tariff on provisions imported into
Cuba. The Spanish tax on these pro-
visions now averages eighty per cent ad
UdlOre,o. The American tax on Cuban
sugar is under twenty per cent; Cuban
coffee is admitted duty free; cigars and
tobacco, though paying higher rate I'D
uag0ren,, affords small revenue.
AS a summary, then, of this report to
the Department Of State:
l. The policy of the government towards
Spain has been just and forbearing. The
recognition of belligerency of the State
government Of Cuba would be perfectly in
accordance with duty to our government,
and in perfect accordance with the law of
nations.
9 The planting and labor interests of
Louisiana would favor such recognition.
3. The commercial interests of New
Orleans deem it of importance that the
war should cease and trade with Cuba be-
come untrammeled
T. The colored people Of Louisiana re-
gard the maintenance of African slavery
in territory adjacent to the United States,
or with the aid even of federal neutrality,
as inconsistent with the principles of hu-
man liberty and dangerous to those rights
which have been guaranteed to them by
the nation.

use of money by bankrupt people, not
because they have not the right to spend
their money in any legitimate way, but be-
cause they have no right to spend it In
the way they are doing. It is not legiti-
mate to bride the representatives of the
people, and every dollar the bankrupts,
who plead their poverty SO often through
the Times, spend in that way is but another
dollar cast after the manner that the Times
has advised out of them heretofore. The
paper that has led the community in error
from the day of its birth to the present
time, that has profted by always chirping
with prejudice, that has even destroyed
its own business in destroying that
of the community in which 1t was
printed, may well poison the pub
lie mind by indorsing bribery and
corruption, but it can not succeed III
destroying tho government of to-day any
more than it did the government of 1868.
If the poor people of Louisiana have any
loose money to bestow let them put it into
the ground where it will fructify and
bring forth assistance to make their future
glad about All the cash they send to
New Orleans will be consumed and its
fruits will taste like Dead sea fruit to their
linz

M,ENERY,s DIFFICULTIES.

The most unfortunate man within the
| borders of the State of Louisiana is that
clever gentleman from the Ouachita bot
tom, who yesterday, in Lafayette square,
and in the presence of large concourse
of people, took solemn oath to exercise
the functions of Governor of Louisiana.
He was complimented and fattered by
turns, and many people did all in their
was the recipient of glorious ovation, as
he stood on the threshold of a glorious
career. 1t was, in fact, glorious day for
Colonel McEnery, and the last one he will
have. Festivities extended well into the
night, and surfeit as it was, of adula-
ton, sent him late last night to his
troubled pillow. When he gets up this
morning it will be to feel the weight of
responsibilities he has assumed, but can
never carry out. He will feel that those
who praised and flattered yesterday will
come asking to-day and demanding to-
morrow that which he has not to give.
Colonel McEnery has already intimated to
his confidential friends that it is his fixed
determination to make no appointments,
issue no commissions, and, in fact, to per-
form no executive functions until his right
to the office of Governor is decided by
superior power Mr.. McEnery, if he has
determined upon this policy, will adhere
to it strictly !oy courage, resolution and
determination are conceded to be his
ruling traits of character.
So much fos Colonel McEnery. Now.
what tor the two OF three score Of thou
sands of hungry, ravenous and implacable
politicians who stand at his back, and
have thus forced him into the position he
is compelled to occupy! Are they pre-.
pared to put up with policy OF complete
inactivity on the part Of their leader just
as he has led them to the borders of the
promised land of good fat ofice-holding ?

HON. 4. B. HARRIS.

The Senate did very graceful and
appropriate thing in thanking the late
Acting Lieutenant Governor for the e1cep-
| tionably able manner i'll which he pre-
sided over its deliberations, and eulogiz-
ing the spirit of courtesy and fair dealing
which invariably characterized his official
conduct. Our reporter fully narrates the
particulars of this happy event.
MIR. Harris would be man Of mark in
any community, but his positive traits of
| character and disposition peculiarly fitted
him for leadership under the trying cir
cumstances which have accompanied re-
construction. A thoroughly patriotic
man, fearless in the cause of justice and
human rights, his keen perceptions and
thorough knowledge of men rendered it
impossible that he should not take one of
| the foremost stations in our party ranks
Immediately upon entering the arena of
active politics. That he should win al
most universal respect and esteem was
inevitable, while the people who so cheer
fully gave him their sutfrages find only
cause for congratulation in the fact. Their
interests have been carefully fostered and
guarded, and the party has never failed
to benefit by needing his calm and careful
counsels.
The circumstances attending the Access
sion of Senator Harris to and occupancy
of the Lieutenant Governors chair were
peculiarly anomalous, and calculated to
most effectually test his abilities as man,
as parliamentarian and as a statesman;
but the triumph he achieved in the dis
charge of his onerous, varied and delicate
duties has now become part of the po-
litical history of the times. The Republi
cans of Louisiana are Justly proud of such
a leader, and we but express the general
sentiment in hoping that it may be very
long indeed before we shall be deprived of
his potent aid and influence in practically
carrying out the grand reforms w&ich are
the true mission of our party.

cUBA--.A POSITIVE POLICY ANNOUNCED.

In form er article we offered an argu-
ment upon the policy of our government
in her relations toward the Spanish col
ony of Cuba. We now proceed to state
the opinion in Louisiana:
As, however, it is more important TO the
government to learn what its own consti-
tuents think of the policy Indicated we
proceed to speak for Louisiana.
There is no reason to believe that the
opinions expressed by the Louisiana Leg
islature before the war in favor Of the ac-
QUESTION of Cuba, and presented with such
force in the Senate of the United States by
Senator John Sidell, have undergone any
change. Indeed, they have been reiter-
ated by meeting Of highly respectable
gentlemen at Odd Fellows Hall in this
city. They have specially approved the
Cuban policy of the government, as will be
seen by proceedings published elsewhere.
They are understood to speak the senti-
ment of foreign policy inherited by them

l. The colored people feel natural
sympathy for their own race, toiling I'M
der tropical sun and under taskmasters
proverbially cruel since the days of the
Incas, the Montezumas and the extermin.
ators of the original inhabitants of the
Spanish West midas. Our eolored popu-
lation nave another practical reason for
desiring the abolition of African slavery in
Cuba u is q little too near the United States.
In the many TRADES against the African
race in Louisiana and elsewhere at the
South, it might be deemed expedient to
adopt the example of Cuba and reinstate
the system of labor which has been re-
| pealed here Whether this contagion will
be waited across the narrow chan
mel that separates them from the
| whip and shackle. may be to
others q philosophical question. To the
emancipated people of color in the South
it is otherwise, They prefer this pest
house should be perpetually and hermeti-
cally closed. There will be then an
insurance against the possibility of dan
ger. If freedom is to cross over and ex-
terminate slavery, or slavery to cross over
and reinaugurate bondage, the colored
| people prefer to be the conquerer5 in such
