United States has been endeavoring for
years to perform in theory. We will con-
cede to an opponent, if be Insist upon it,
that the Judge cut the Gordian knot in
stead of untying it, as was expected Ger
tain it is that he gave full effect to the
fifteenth amendment and the enforcement
act, as the people had willed. Such was
the result, and for this half million of
people are grateful. Let it be the care of
this people that the great man who stood
by them when they most needed a
friend shall never want for defend
ers. Let it be their charge that
the fight against him is their fight. Let
the whole people of Louisiana strengthen
the hands Of the eloquent Chester when
he rises to defend the acts and eulogize
the conduct of Judge Durell, who has
drawn down upon his head the wrath of
powerful foes because he dared to be
right.
To Mr.. Chester we leave the legal points
that have been raised, satisfied that his
judgment is safe one. As for the ethics,
we profess to be competent 20 pass upon
that point without the assistance Of coun-
sci. And we repeat here what We have
declared before, that the people Of this
State owe more to Judge Durell for his
powerful intervention in their behalf than
to any other one man except, perhaps,
President Grant.

LEGAL PERPLEXIIY,

readins before the courts which mus.
bother the bigwigs greatly. George
Francis Train uttered words Of III in.

c!at.in u Co.. and was thereupon indicted
and held to bail for the misiemeanor.
Tie cour: made his bail nominal and di-
r.e;ei his discharge upon his own rscog-
ni2lnoe. Train refused to bail himself

martyr. His was the cry Of the sub.
r!e:gsi FrencLman: ~ ,-n be drowned.

other part. he was bore. IL vain we're
the doors left open: yainly did the jailor
try to coax him out Or smoke him out
Train valued the position too highly. j:

ON THE RIGHT TRACK.

The speeches made a: the meeting of
colored citizens the night before last, and
the resolutions passed show that they are
t1lly aware OF the Importance Of bestirring
themselves. and making their weight and
importance felt in the settling Of our po-
litical difficulties. 1t is all very well to
talk Of there being absolutely no distinc.
ton between them and the res. Of the
party Of which they form. in this State at
least. the great majority. We hope 70 see
the time when no such distinction will be
made, when it will no longer be necessary
to prefix the word "colored TO the word
citizen. But that time has not yet come,
and until it does. il is proper. il is
necessary. that the colored men should
in many cases assert themselves,
should act not simply as Republicans
but as colored Republicans; showing by
the wisdom, moderation and frmness Of
such action their fitness 20 share on terms
Of equality with their white fellow.citi.
zens. In this way. and in this alone,
the time will be fastened when the dis.
tinct!on Of color, as far as regards poiiti-
cal relations, shall absolutely cease. Here
tofo.e they have trusted mainly to white
leadership and until capable leaders arose
among themselves this was well enough.
But in case like theirs, where it is desira-
bic TO present TO the whole country evi.
dences OF their fitness as class for the
lolitical functions which they now enjoy;
evidences Of the wrongs 70 which as
class they have been subjected; evidences
Of their determination 10 do all that in
them lies 20 have those wrongs righted. It
is eminently proper that they should send
on such mission representative men Of
their own race. II you would have a
thing we'll done do il yourself, is an
adage applicable - their case. and we are
therefore glad TO see that il the selection
Of a committee 'to collect testimony, hold
correspondence with the prominent white
and colored Republicans Of the North"

sary charac.e. and ability to engage in

federal law was intended, the prisoner,

reprimanded the witnesses for frivolous
and expensive prosecution. Such are the
perpleHties of courts in the celebrated
State trials of Train and DeBlanc. Both
cases have terminated. Train is in the

EMERSONIAN.

No man is SO easily managed as he who
is positively bound by his past utterance
in spite Of information subsequently OBJ
tanned; and yet this is what some people
laud as consistency. Such consistency is
the strength OF weak mind, whereas the
ability to say Il was mistaken. ! spoke
unadvisedly. and from knowledge since
obtained now hold diferen: views" is a
much .ruer tes, Of mental power. Tried
by this test. Senator Carpenter comes
nobly Out Of his interview with the Nc
Emery leaders. He frankly made the
admission that last winter. when he took
the stand which raised the hopes Of the
Fusionists that they had secured his sup
port. he did not understand SOME points
as be does now; he is not 50 clear as be
was tha. the Supreme Court Of the State
had not jurisdiction. Wha. can be done
with a man who thus modifes lis views
in accordance with additional evidences,
and s:;l! keeps his mind open 70 fresh
proofs: He will evidently wal: till the case
is fully closed before giving final decision.
is '.uite useless to ia:ter such nan pre-
matursly by quoting his former utterances:
for he ac:s under the Emersonian rule:
Speak the thoughts Of to-day in words
like cannon balls, and when tomorrow
comes speak its thoughts in worls as
locd, though you contradict in every
thing the words OF to-day"
An honest search after truth often binds
man TO a seeming inconsistency; but it
is only seeming. The knight who swore
that the shield, only one side Of which be
