UNITED STATES TROOPS DEFTED.
From the New Orleans Bulletin tDe1n oeratl ]
We learn that an officer OF the nited
States stationed at this city, declared yester-
day that United States troops will be sent
here TO enforce the rights of Radicals, white
and black, to vote. If this was said as a
threat or if the officer spoke advisedly, We
can assure him that the coming of United
States troops TO Louisiana is a matter orsmall
Importance to any of the white people
against whom they may be sent to operate.
The people OF this Statewide are opposed To
Radicalism and to negro rule have no thought
of interfering with the right of any man OF
any color to vote as he may elect; but they
do solemnly propose to exercise that priv
ilege themselves, spite of kellogg spite of
metropolitan police, and spite OF the United
States troops. We have arrived at the con-
clusion that if the United States officers 50
far forget their duties as to permit them
ton in a State contest, they deserves No
more consideration than any other man, and
should be treated as ordinary rutiians- The
example of Arkansas and other States where
United States troops were treated as I'M
pertinent Intermediates, has taught US the
folly of yielding more than proper respect
and obedience to the blue coats and bayonets
of the Federal soldiers. If the soldiers choose
to get mixed up in broils with which they
have no concern, they must expect to cone
ont with puneed heads and torn uniforms
The time has pa ssed when blue coat stuck
upon a pole. can make US bow in ahjcct sub
mission as before a Gesler's cap. We say
that there can be no trouble in Louisiana IN
less it is rashly preeipitated by the iDjudie-
ious use of Federal troops, and, SO far as the
white people are concerned, they are quite rs
determined to see fair play for the negroes sss
the most blatant Radical In the State.
SHOT AT THE cARPET-BAGGERs.
from the Vicksburger fDemoerat>.J
We hope that every miserable scalawag
and carpet-bagger holding one or two, th,ee
or twenty offices, who leaves Nicksburg for
the watering places to crafty his pleasures
with the money wrun G from noble but con-
aued people may break his Internal neck on
some of the railroad crossings, or elsewhere
Oh his travels. 1t is certainly beyond human
comprehension how these villains, who have
lived on the CRUELTY of the ignorant negroes,
and robbed systematically, coolly, deliber-
ately, and pertinaelouSiy, the real owner OF
the State, can have the unblushing inpu-
dence and brazen-faced eftrontery to turn
their faces toward our city Yet the scoun-
drels do it, knowing that they are condemned
despised, loathed, and avoided by every
decent man and good woman in the land
these escaped convicts from the Northern
penitentiaries beastialized drunkards from
the purlieus of New York, Ohio, and other
great States. go and come like birds of pas
sage, and in the winter and early spring are
seen in our streets and saloons. debauchln G
the poor negroes with revolutionary ideas
and mean whisky, and in winter betake
themselves to places of pleasure and revel in
high-sounded titles-Generals, Colonies.
Judges. etc., surreptitiousiy obtained and
most shameessly disgraced by them. We
again hope that all these miserable, bad men
may break their neeks, and come to us INC
more forever
IF We CAN'T VOTE HIM DOWN, KNOCK HIM
DOWN.
From the Westville Miss. News Democrat
Does not the every thought boil the blood
in very vein2 Will you still contend that
we must not have n White Mans party.
We have tried policy long enough. We
must organize on the Color Line disregard
ing minor considerations. The White Mans
party is the only salvation for the State
Show the negro his place and make him keep
it. Ii we cant vote him down we can knock
him down, and the result will be the same
Either the white man or negro viii rule this
country; they can't both do it, and il is for
the white man to say who the ruler shall be
Let us have q white mans party to rule a
white mans country, and do it like white
men.
EXTERMrN ALTON.
from the Nicksburs Herald Democrat
The foul breath of the carpet-bagger and
infamous scalawag must no longer pollute
the air If needs be, he must be exterminat-
ed. If he can be got rid of in one way, he
must in another.
WHITE MEN To RULE
from the Columbus Miss Democrat
The ball keeps rolling on There is one
sentiment in every Southern heart; one
sentence on every Southern lip--white men
shall rule Amerieal
