A RADICAL PATENT MEDICINE.

We learn, through the telegraph, that tn
expiring majority in Congress have come tt
the conclusion Of sending another investiga
ting committee to Louisiana. This commit
tee will not leave for the scene Of their Iabors
before ten days, and their report, if ever made,
will be submitted to the House when that re.
pudiated body will be in the last throes OF
dissolution. OF course, the only object of
this measure is to gain time, and to throw dust
in the eyes of the Northern people 1t is the
great patent medicine of the discounted
and crest-fallen leaders of once power
ful party-what the French appropriately
call "a plaster tor wooden leg" There
are two Democrats and seven Repub-
licans on that committee, and although
two Of the latter-Phelps and Foster-are
represented to be fair-minded men, they
would still be outvoted by their "thick and
thin . colleagues who constitute the majority.
We presume they will interview Packard,
Casey, Kellogg and the four immaculate
members of the Returning Board, whose de-
termination to defraud the people Of this
State of the right of selecting their own gov
eminent is a matter of public notoriety Per-
haps they will call on Miss Lou. Dudley, and
crack few bottles Of champagne with that
hlgh-toned representative of the "party of
moral ideas in Louisiana The minority
will doubtless tell the truth, but their report,
if it is reached before the 4th of March. |
Will, OF course, be consigned to the tomb of the |
Capulets. Uncle Sam will be called upon to
foot another heavy bill, and the situation will |
remain unchanged, SO far, at least, as Con-
gressional action goes, and the Louisiana
middle will continue to vex the nation and to
our DISTINGUISHED citizens. Then,
OF course-such, at least, must be the expecta-
ton of the Radical chiefs in Washington
there will be another outbreak of popular in
Iiignation, another disgraceful exhibition of
;owardice on the part Of the Louisiana usurp-
ng officials, and another piteous howl for
armed protection by the Federal troops sta
loned here. This. it is hoped, will furnish
he party with a pretext for further
legislative and executive interference, and +
nay possibly add few months lingering ex- I
stence to the Kellogg regime. This is the +
programme of the Lou Dudleyists," and the IL
lie creatures have actually succeeded in per-
uading themselves that it can be carried out al
dthout danger to themselves. st
1t is no part of our business to throw any =
ark shadows on the roseate views enter
lined by these misguided creatures, who

We had the pleasure yesterday of meetin
valued friend, former citizen of New O,
leans, who has just returned from ton
through Mexico. From him we have gath
cred some interesting facts concerning tn
port of Tuxpan, now brought into intimat
communication with this city by the new lin
Of steamers recently established by the Ale1
ders Of New York, whereof our we'll know,
fellow-citizen, Mr.. J. NJ. Witherspoon, is tn
New Orleans agent
The town of Tuxpan is situated on q broad
deep river, some six miles from its mouth
has about six thousand inhabitants. and car.
ries on large and valuable trade with Europ,
and America. The valley Of Tuxpan aboundl
in beautiful scenery and rich lands. Suga
cane grows there from ten to fourteen fee
high, with circumference Of seven inches
yielding from two thousand to four Thousand
pounds to the acre, and that, too, with very
imperfect machinery. Cane requires replant.
ing only once in ten to twenty years. The cost
Of labor is from thirty-seven and half to fifty
cents day. When the cane is cut the stub
BILE is set on fire, and the plant almost i'm
mediately begins to grow again from the
roots, requiring but little attention or cultiys-
ton.
As general thing the machinery is Of 4
crude, primitive character. but there are sew
eral American planters located in that region
who have steam mills, and who find their
crops largely remunerative. We are positive
ly assured that men experienced in sugar
culture, and having comparatively small
from So to $40, OOO-would make,
in short time, snug little fortune BY plant
ing in the valley Of Tuxpan. The lands, for
fifteen miles on the river banks above the
city. are owned by a stock company; the price
Of stock is from S25 to $50 per share. and any
person owning share Of the same enjoys the
privilege of planting, without any additional
cost for rental Of land, as large an area as he
can manage.
The heat of the climate is tempered and
rendered delightful by strong breezes, which
can be s'id to be almost unremitting, There
are now about $50 Americans in the valley,
most Of whom are engaged in sugar culture.
In the town there is large steam factory in

THE CRICKET ON TIE HEARTH.

We can readily forgive Mr.. Dion Boucicaul
for the many sensational dramas he has in
tlicted upon us, because some of his works
are indeed masterpieces, and the attraction a,
the Varieties Theater the past week has been
one OF his creations, which, in our opinion.
IS the equal in every respect, and the superior
IN point Of pure morality, of Grip Van
Wrinkle" We turn from "Belle Lamar ~
with feeling of relief to contemplate with
real satisfaction and pleasure the beauties of
"Dot and the mind is filed with pleasurable
emotions and generous thoughts whenever
the figure OF Caleb Plummer comes before us:
unselfsh, patient. resigned to his troubles.
and bearing about him an air of pure Christi
anity and glorious devotion, which affords
striking moral lesson in these DAVIS Of de-
moralization.
As we write, with thoughts of the merry
Christmas near at hand, the one day of all
the year when, all over the world, in every
cline, men lay aside the busy avocations of
life to render homage to the Redeemer, and
when each and all of us are reminded of His
sacrifice for our sake, we can not but think of

beautiful story Of the "Cricket on the

SOME MORE NONSENSE.

The New York Herald correspondent here il
making himself ridiculous, by the absurd ant
incorrect kilograms he is sending to hi
paper.
1t seems to be his aim to make it appear a.
the North that our people are all under arms
and ready to make an assault and kill every
body in sight, including the reporter himself,
who sees a phantom dagger wherever he
goes.
The statement about Capt. Lawler express
ing himself as determined ''to fight until dis
lodged and overcome by superior force, is
false, as we have it from the lips Of that
officer that he had notified Kellogg that he
was willing and would discharge his duties
as police officer, and,would protect him, the
Returning Board and every other citizen from
the assaults of any one, but when he should
be ordered to arm his men like soldiers and
required to fire upon the citizens he would do
nothing of the kind, nor could his men be
compelled to do SO.
The Herald man would do well to send
nothing unless it be more reliable and less
sensational than his recent dispatches.
Here is the telegram to which we refer,
taken from the Herald Of the 18th inst.
New ORLEANS, Dec. IL, 1874.
Your correspondent has been assured bv
prominent Radical that Kellogg is master of
the situation that Grant has issued orders
that make 1t only necessary for Kellogg to
whistle when he wants troops, and Emory
will respond and garrison the State House.

A WORD TO THE SCHOLARS AND
TEACHERS OF OUR PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.

The BULLETIN has Q word or two of advice
to the scholars and teachers of the public
schools, and especially to the young ladies
whose high-spirited course has excited the ad
miration and commentator of every one. II
ls very evident, indeed, we have it upon ex.
celient authority, that this bold attempt to
mix the public schools here was concocted
at Washington, with the view Of creating such
. disturbance as would warrant the President
in taking harsh measures and thereby enable
the Returning Board, in the melee and confl,-
sion, to return the Legislature in the interest
Of their party, and to have it protected by the
troops which would be brought into action,
ostensibly to suppress riotoas d emonstra-
tons, but really for the purpose of saving the
Kellogg Government from disaster.
This is very shameful, but it is true, and
our citizens are to be congratulated that they
have not permitted themselves to be tolled
into the trap which was set for them by their
cunning and malignant foe. The heroism of
the young ladies and young gentlemen Of the
schools has been equal to the emergency, and
have rendered mixed schools an impossibility
in this city and State; but we would suggest
that the better and safer plan to
adjust the difficulty now, would be,
not to forcibly eject colored children
from the schools, but to abstain from going
to the schools Let every white child, and
for that matter let every white teacher with
draw from the schools, and remain away until
6of init 10 FOL h.
School Board. We want to see the teachers
acting in this matter bravely. We know it is
a matter of bread and butter to man., and we
know that the action will be attended with |
sacrifice, but it is none the les, |
their duty to act, thereby endorsing the con-
duct of their pupils, and effectually killing
mixed schools.
The time has come for decisive action and
no half way measures will suffice. Concert
If action on the part of children and teachers
will unquestionably achieve the desired end,
hat is to say, a separate school system for the
wo races schools which shall be equally
,ood. and for the maintenance of which the
White people will cheerfully pay. When the {
chools are recognized it may be a letter of I
to a teacher that she acted I
romptly in the issue which has been forced r
pom them.
We know how they all feel about it, and we q
elieve We fully realize the delicacy and +
ravity Of their position, but we are never I
leless Of the settled conviction that it will be
etter for them to side with the scholars, and b
it'll them abstain from the schools until the 81
after is arranged by the present School
GARD, which We would remind them is an d
,ceedingly temporary, illegal and corrupt Il
Fair at best.
Father Ryan very beautifully and truth re
lily remarked in his recent lecture, that az
'licy was an idol. but principle was god;" fir
