the establishment Mr. Booking Is doing
an immense business, and is constantly
introducing improvements. We notice
that he has procured an entire new lot oil

also been procured similar to those in use
in the Old Country. The greatest care
is taken in the disposition of the bottles
containing poison, and the most inexpe.

rHE rWo-rAoEp POLICY EXPOSED.


The regeneration of the White League
organ at Shreveport is as palpable as its
mendacity. Some time ago that paper
labored hard to convince the colored peo-
pie of Caddo parish that George l. Smith,
the member Of Congress from the fourth
congressional district, and the nominee OF
the Republicans Of that district for re-
election, was their enemy. IN proof OF
this it charged that that gentleman, in
conjunction with Mr. c. W. Heating, had
planned scheme by which the negroes OF
Caddo We're to be sent to Liberia, in order
to make room for the poor whites OF the
Northern States. The organ put forth a
bitter complaint against such treatment O..
the colored people, and was even pathetic
in its effort to convince them that the mer
who opposethe Republican party-inc!ud-
ing the White League-are their only true
friends. This was the language OF the
Shreveport Times few weeks ago, when
it thought it could deceive the colored
people. Blu. mark how differently it
talked bat few days ago. The following
extrac: is taken from that paper Of the
sixteenth instant:
We call attention to the two cards signed
BY the merchants Of Shreveport, published
in this mornings Times. The merchants
have acted promptly, and il is to be hoped
the example they have SO nobly and fear
lessly given will be everywhere followed.
Let the negroes be made to full and clearly
understand tina. their ilsolence and mis-.
rule has gone as far as il can co. and that
they must either cooperate with US to re-
establish good government and the pros
pprity OF the State, OF depend upon their
Radical friends tor employment and sup
port
We would suggest now that our mer-
chants and business men are IN earnest 10
this important matter that they immediate.
II correspond with their friends i'll st. Louis
and Cincinnati and make arrangements to
have a brigade Of d1aymen and pOrters
sent here when needed. Draymen aud
portsrs in St. Louis and Cincinnati are
working for one-third less than the negro
draymen and porters are getting IN Shreve-
port and will be GLAD to come if they are
assured Of regular work. The planters OF
Summer Grove and the merchants of
Shreveport have spoken. Let us hear the
next voice.
But what renders this regeneration
the more remarkable is that there was
not word of truth in what it said about
Messrs. Smith and Keating's plan to send
the colored people out Of the country to
make room for the poor whites at the
North; nor is there a particle of truth, as
the above extract clearly evinces, in its
professions of friendship for the negroes,
made but few weeks ago. Such con-
duct is not calculated to win the conf.
dence Of our people who are free from the
prejudice of partisan blindness, and for
that reason it is possible that the conduct
Of the Times is calculated TO do the Re
publican party good, where harm was
| intended.

A CARPET-BAGGER Is BREvETTED.

One Of the distinguished arrivals"
greeted with such cordiality by the Pic.
ayine was complimented by an invitation
to address the White League meeting at
Elysian Fields, held Wednesday night.
We are told he obtained the ''unanimous
applause OF his audience. Now, this
particular speaker arrived in Louisiana
since the war. He has been ap-
pointed to parish and other public offices,
among them one Of the most lucrative in
the gift of the executive. With the repu-
tation of large wealth he has left the Repub-
lican party proper, and having voted for
Greeley, is now the Jealous supporter OF
the movement against the Republican State
government. As result Of his political
convictions. he has been accepted in full
citizenship. He is no carpet-bagger. lie
is no sdyenturer who has wrung from an
impoverished PEG pie the poor remnant Of
their ruin. He has been washed in the
waters Of political regeneration. and,
seated on the same platform with
Messrs. Ogden and Ellis. can hear
''carpet-baggers" denounced and ad-
venturers derided with that phi.
losophy Of the pocket which sue.
cessful merit always creates. The lesson
taught by this acceptance and ;ndorse.
men. is that an immigrant will always be
a carpet-bagger, and man Of color al
ways "a nigger." until they vote the
White League ticket. when the first is
brevetted good citizen and the second
respectable colored gentleman. The path
is still open. and the position may tie
readily attained by any who will pay the
price. demanded

TIE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF
".. JOHN GAlR.

The daseacdly attempt to assassinate
John Gair. member Of the present House
Of Representatives. and candidate for
State Senator from the Teliciana district.
has attracted great deal Of attention,
and elected deserved condemnation.
Even the P;caytne. Fl nding that none Of
its White League frien ds are implicated.
for wonder. speaks out ,nanfully
against the outrage. The parties who
have done this wrong to worthy citizen
of the State deserve condign punish
ment. and We hope they will receive it.
We are not particular as to the manner of
their arrest. If the federal authorities
deem it their duty to send company Of
cavalry up into East Feliciana to execute
process. we shall not call them federal
bloodhounds; neither will we devote a
column or two Of sympathy in behalf Of
the prisoners. They may languish in
prison as long as the necessities Of the
case require. before we shall fill our col.
umns with coarse abuse Of the faithful
officers of the law. or sentimental appeals
for volunteer counsel. contributions. or
anything in their favor except a fair trial
and speedy punish ment OF acquitta!. as
the facts may warrant.
Outrage and bloodshed az. not Repub.
lican weapons. We are content that our
opponents shall enjoy full monopoly Of
such means. and the odium Of their EN-.
ployment. But we are at some loss to &C.
count for the excessive indignation Of the
Picayn. IN the Gair case, while it stands
as the earnes: apolog;st Of the perpetra-
tors Of the more bloody and cruel horrors
OF Grant and Red River parishes. We
rejoice that Mr. Gair has escaped death
and is spared many years Of future USE
fitness. ~ We .ope. We greatly deploye
the wrong that has been done him, and
demand that the prope. officers shall! ex-
err themselves to find out and arrest his
assaiiants. We also thank the Picay,ne
70. its unexpected indignation at tie out
rage to worthy co!ored citizen and true
Republican. ie: we are totally Unable TO
account. upon any honest or consisteI:
grounds. for this furious zeal in the case
o: John G.ir's wouii.be assassins in an
organ :ha. has 50 persistently defended
the successful butchers o: Co.fax court
house and CousiattA There were nao:e
than hundred colored killed at one
place and two colored and six white citi.
lens at the other. yet the officers who are
attempting to do their duty in the Red
river country are characterized by one Of
oUs White League organs as bloodhounds.
and the unfortunate prisoners are cLarac-
terized by all Of then, as innocent. peace.
able citizens. who are illegally dragged
from their homes: We can not reconcile
these inconsistencies upon any basis OF
honesty.
