Heroes Of the Rail.

The true heroism Of Jim Bludsoe, engineer
of that historical wreck the " Prairie Belle, "
in "holding her nozzle agin the bank till the
last galoot's ashore, was nobly initiated a day
or two since by an engineer and fireman on
the Marietta and Cincinnati Railroad Their
train, bound eastward, had to cross bridge,
one span of which crossed creek and the
other a roadway. The train was moving slow
ly as it neared the bridge, its speed not ex-
ceeding twelve miles an hour. When too near
to be of service, the engineer observed that a
switch had been displaced, and that the engine
must of necessity run into the bridge. Both
he and the fireman might have saved
their lives by jumping from the loco
motive, but the result would have
been fatal to the passengers. They bravely
remained, reversed the engine, and applied
the patent air-brake. 1t was too late tor
them. The engine dashed through the wood
work and landed in the roadway below; the
tender followed, crushing the two brave fell
lows against the boiler; postal car behind
fell upon the tender, resting one end upon the
abutment of the bridge, and checked the mo-
ton of the train. The sleeping passengers in
the palace cars were not even awakened by
the catastrophe. Only the train hands dis
covered the heroic sacrifice which Perdew and
Parent, of Chilicothe, had made. Two
charree and shattered corpses were found in
the wreck of the engine, all that remained of
these two "men who died for men" Rail-
reading has its heroes as well as its knaves,
but usually the former are too humble in their
lives to be heard of until their death.

GEN. ]. HALE SYPHER.

The carpet-bag candidate for Congress from
he First District, publishes poster in which
- setsforth six reasons why the people should
vote for him.
We propose to give six reasons why the
people should not vote for him:
/. Because he was q backpay salary grabber.
z He voted for the Civil Rights bill
= He is charged with Offering to sell cadet
ihips for $500.
4 He is carpet-bagger. and resides in
Pennsylvania.
s. Every measure he favors in Congress is
booked upon with suspicion.
& He is without intelligence, influence, or
integrity, and holds no position among the
members of Congress.
Let every man interested in the prosperity
ef Louisiana, and harmony and good will
among the people, vote for Gen. r. L. Gibson,
Sos in so doing he will save himself and the
State.

THE NOTORIOUS MERRILL.

Major Lew Merrill, who became SO notori-
ous in South Carolina for his relentless punish
ment Of citizens charged with belonging to
the Ku-Klux organization, and for which he is
reported to have received $4,000, from the
Legislature Of that State, is now operating in
North Louisiana, it appears, under orders
direct from Washington.
As yet, he has made no report to his
superior, Gen. Emor;, and persistently keeps
silent as to his action in making arrests. 1t is
stated that Gen. Emory is highly indignant at
bis conduct and has telegraphed to Washing
ton to learn the cause of this breach of mill
tary discipline.
Up to the hour Of going to press nothing of
Merrill's doings is known.

TIFF CONTEMPLATED CRIME.

The attempt to dsfranchise thousands o.
r..uralized citizens on the part Of the Radical
partv Of this State is not only bold and
t,.ngparent frand, but it is the most palpable
evidence of weakness that the leaders Of that
party have yet given. That any set Of mon
should think seriously, for one moment,
f setting aside as worthless the natural
iation papers issued by court the COM
petency of which was fully established,
as far back as 1855, when the question was
oily argued by such men as Benjamin, Brad
ford, and host of others learned in the law
mon whose opinions have been accepted by
The bar and the bench as incontrovertible- lis
evidence Of political madness, or worse, po-
htical crime. The outrage contemplated is
Heightened by the reflection that in 1870 the
Republicans held that the First and Second
District Courts were the only courts compe-
tant to issue naturalization papers. and abso-
htely refused to recognize papers issued from
ether courts.
The right Of this court to naturalize citi-
3ans ID as well settled as anything can be, and
the old Attorney General who argues SO
lengthily and ingeniously the other side Of
tho question knows it as well as he knows the
asurpation which he is serving to be q crime
against civil liberty.
The thing is too gross and palpable an out
nge, and cannot stand-the opinion of forty
thousand Attorney Generals to the contrary
notwithstanding. Let the naturalized citizens
who have complied with all the forms of law
prepare to vote, and let us see whether the
of Kellogg and Packard will dare
10 O0tracise them
