THE METROPOLITAN POLICE.

We sincerely hope no occasion will arise to
mt the police upon their mettle; out if il
sbould. Il will be found their old glory anC
esprit have not departed -RepuJlican.
If the conduct of the police on the 14th Of
September, when they fed in confusion after
the first fire, and took refuge in the Custom.
House. and the officers afterwards deserted
and surrendered to the White League, is fail
sample of "the old glory and esprit Of the
police we are not inclined to think that they
can frighten any one in the city.
But the generalization of the police at this
time is reasonable, and can easily be accounted
for. Every member of them knows that the
party whose interests the force is used to adj
vance, has but q few more days to live. They
all know that there will soon be a change In
the administration of the State Government
and with it the present Metropoliton Police
law and organization.
As many Of the present members OF that
body will doubtless be applicants for reap
pointment, under the new order Of things.
they are not willing, nor can they be induced
by either the threats or persuasion OF Kellogg,
to do anything that will render them odious
in the eyes Of the people.
They are willing to discharge the legitimate
duties of policemen-to arrest evil doors,
maintain the peace, protect the lives and
property Of the citizens they will
not consent to serve again as militiamen
to be ordered about by Kellogg and made to
fire upon people who were engaged in sim
ply asserting their rights as free citizens.
All the fa.tery and blandishn ents of the
Republican will never induce the present
police to risk their lives again in the support
of such rotten government and the defense
of so arrant coward and contemplate
nsurper as w. Pitt Kellogg.
In fine, the police know what are their best
interests and they will not jeopardize them
by performing any such mad service as the
de .facto will require of them in his last
expiring struggle.

The New ORLEANS CUSTOM HOUSE. Among
the items tending to explain the extraordinary
expensiveness Of the New Orleans Custom
House, besides the Port roll, may be men,
toned Herwig's roll, fifty "strikers " put on
in August to work the primaries, and kept on
till December, costing $4,000 per annum;
the National Republican, a Custom-House
"organ, supported by a three per cent assess
ment on Custom-H House officers, $4,000 per
annum; Northern men coming down for their
health, with appointments to Office for two and
three months in their pockets, SIS, OOOannual
cost; Caseys electioneering tours in Texas
with q brass band of Custom.House en-
ployees; twenty-eight totally superfuous in
spectors according to the confession Of the
Surveyor Of the Port), appointed for political
purposes, $4,000 per annum. These few
brief items indicate that if the New Orleans
Custom-House should simply quit politics
and contine itself to its Legitimate duties,
saving Of 100000 could be made in its an
nual expenses. If it would at the same time
pitch out Casey, it could probably be run as
cheaply as the Custom-Houses of San Fran
cisco and and Baltimore.-N y World

We would call attention to the fact that
Mr.. c. H. Allen, proprietor of the Brook
Steam Rice Mill, has reduced his milling
charge to three-quarters of cent for No. l
rice. and that all consignments Of rough rice
will be milled promptly on arrival. This
establishment is widely and most favorably
known to the rice-planting interest of the

A CONSPIRACY THAT WON'T WIN.

| The old sixteen slave States, from Delaware
to Texas and Missouri, have 1O7 members Of
the next House of Representatives, Of whom
81 are Democrats and 20 Republicans. They
have 139 electoral votes for President and
| Vice President of the United States. The
| majority Of the whole Electoral College,
which consists of 367 members, is. ISL The
Democrats are morally certain of carrying
every Southern vote with the exception of
the seven from South Carolinn and the eight
from Mississippi, Is in all. Thus the
Democrats start in with 124 votes
from the old slave States. They have but
sixty to obtain in all the North and West to
choose President. The Republicans, on the
contrary, have to carry one hundred and fifty
nine electoral votes outside of the South in
order to win, and this may safely be assumed
to be political impossibility. The Republ-
can Leaders and managers have taken the stu
is hopeless unless something desperate is re-
sorted to which will materially break the almost
solid Democratic vote south of Mason and Dix
on's line. That vote can not be broken ex-
cept by revolutionary acts of violence which
will nullify the popular will. From such
actions, however, they do not shrink. The
indications are not wanting that in pursuance
of this idea the majority in the condemned
Congress and the condemned Administration
Will 1nCeT1efe In ARKANSAS, ana attempt to
subvert State Government as clearly estab-
lished as it is in Ohio: that they will come to
the rescue of the usurper Kellogg in Leuisi-
ana, and that they will seek for opportu-
mites to overturn by force the existing
Administrations of Georgia, Alabama and
Texas. There is one great check
upon the result of these proceed
ings which. perhaps, they have not contem-
plated. Those results are the suppression of
the popular will, and the counting of certain |
States for the Republican which have gone |
for the Democratic candidate. The Demo
cratic House of Representatives will have the |
of the votes for the next President |
and Vice President. Do they suppose that that |
House will connive with fraud and imposture? |
Do they suppose it will recognize the votes of
spurious Governments, or Of forged or
returns? We may say here, in
Ill confidence, that the unbiased vote of the
people of the South will be felt in the next
Presidential election, and that acts of revolu-
ion and violence in that election will fail to
accomplish their object This consideration,
hat they can't profit by it, ought to stay the
hands OF those who, for base party purposes,
would cause anarchy in the South. The DEM
,crats are certain to count the Southern votes
n their favor, because they will be so cast

There is queer railroad trouble in In
diana. road being in debt for $500 worth
of unpaid taxes, the Sheriff of the town where
they are due is trying to attach a locomotive.
The law does not allow him to take the loco
motive of a mail train, and now the freight
trains do not stop at that town, but run slow
ly through, all hands deriding the Sheriff,
who sees no way to secure his locomotive.

The water in Bayou Teche is very low, and
it is with difficulty that the mail boats make
their regular trips.

about to dawn upon US once more.

A statement is made that Congress intends
appropriating S5O,OOO to defray the expenses
Of King Kalakaua during his visit to this
country. The proposition is magnificently
hospitable, and if carried into effect will
amaze nobody more than King Kali, whose

scarcely amounts to so large a sum.

Our LEGISLATIVE POSITION. Chicago
Tribune, strong and uncompromising Radi-
cal paper, in it's issue of the 14th inst, has
the following:
To the Louisiana State Senate there were
Is Senators to be elected this year, Is hold
ing over. The Senators holding over are OF
two kinds, viz: Kellogg (Republican) Sena-
tors and McEnery Democrat) Senators. 1t
has been the expectation that the Democratic
House and the Democratic Senators elect
would affiliate only with the McEnery Dem
ocratic) Senators Of 1872, making the State
Senate to stand: 25 Democrats, IL Repub-
icans-the latter occupying their seats or not,
as they chose.
Upon such a basis, it would be easy for the
Democratic Legislature to displace Gov. KEEL
logg. either by form Of impeachment, or by a
recount and declaration of the vote of 1872.
As, however, impeachment would be recog-
milton of Kellogg, displacing him only to
make Antoine (Republican) his successor, or
displacing both without elevating McEnery
and Penn into their places, it has been I'M
derstood the Legislature would at once pro-
coed to q recount of the votes, and to declare
all the State offices filled by Democrats in
stead Of Republicans.

Judge Black has written letter in relation
to the Pennsylvania Senatorship. in which he
says: 81 have not nominated myself as can
didate for Senator, but certain friends in diff
ferent parts of the State have suggested that
ought to be chosen, and have not said that
would not serve if elected. So you see am
little like Gen. Grant with the third term. -
With regard to the probabilities of his elee-
ton, he suggested if the Legislature was left
to its own spontaneous choice, that clear
majority would vote for him, but evidently
thinks his chances sr~lll, because he has
neither time, taste nor talent for personal
solicitation; nor skill in the art By which
caucus nominations are secured"
There is q great change in lake and canal
navigation. The lake vessels used to carry

large steam vessels, carrying from $4,000 to
&c, 900 bushels. and towing consort barge or
two, each carrying as much OF mors than the
steamer. and making the trip in from four to
five days. The rate Of freight paid the for
mer vessels was from 10 to is cents per
bushel. The rate of tho latter during the
year 1874 averaged II cents per bushel on
