4 HARD CASE.

The feelings Of the Bulletin are deeply
lacerated. aud internal hemorrhage is
threatened. Forthe first time in its short
and ingloI1ous career. law lthe particular
statute not stated, has been broken.
VIVA: our White League contemporary
proposes to do about it does not clearly
appear. but the arraigument is as follows:
The Presiien: issued the proclamation a.
required by law. and allowed Eve days time
for the insurgents to dispers& Until the
lapse Of that time. he had no power to in.
teriere with the insurgents.
In direct violation OF law. and without
authority. on tie very day this proclama.
ton was issued. he ordered General Emory
to proceed at once to put down the insur-
gents aud restore Kellogg. The order was,
void. because the President had not tue
power to legally make it.
Now here is very grave charge made
against the President. But without avail
ing OF the plea that requires a man to
come into court with clean hands, we put
in for the President plea Of not guilty
and call for trial before Judge Bradley
and Grant parish jury. When such
notorious adviser Of law breaking and
apoiogis. for law breakers begins to com.
plain Of broken laws, it is time for peace.
ably disposed citizens to fall back upon
their reserved rights and plead every
technical defense known to the ingenious
green bag fraternity. The leading organ
Of the insurgents in tears over broken
law is an affecting sight! Shade Of
Devices. Twitchell and their associates:
Spirits OF the fallen of the fourteenth Of
September. do you hear the a.raignmen.s:
That President Grant is guilty Of a breach
Of the laws because he directed Emory to
put a stop to riot without letting the
rioters have five full days in which to en-.
Joy themselves: We will minsle our
tears with those Of the Bulletin the mo-
ment the battered statute is pointed out to
US. But we ut erly refuse to weep until
the corpse is found and identified

lNADVERTENT JUSTICE.

The Associated Press reports that the
United States commissioner has canvassed
1farengo county. Alabama. and
Although true Republican, devoted to
the party and its success, can not consent
,nat my county shall be falsifed and Sian.
deged. Justice and truth compels me to
declare that never cay more peaceful
and orderly. law abiding people, both col.
Ored and white. Not q man has been killed
nor a single outrage committed Oh account
OF political feeling. and free epeech and
Republican opinions can be INDUCED in
anywhere.
The value Of this testimony will be ap.
prec;ated when it is added that by the
census Of 1870 the population of Marengo
stands: Whites 5000. -colosed 2O,O5s; col
ored majority. 1866.

THEY THREATEN TO suLE.

1t is now given GU. that tie Conssrva-
tives. as they somet;mes cal. themselves
for short. intend to make no con.es: in
the coming election. but will resume their
tactics Of 1853. and sulk in their tents at
home. We do not vouch for the truth of
the report: We hope it is without fourda.
ton. for we sincerely desire to have the
pleasure Of again beating "this people"
as they are rauntingly called. Oh fair
and square stand up conflict at the polls.
Doubtless there is something of discre.
ton in this declination of combat. We
appreherd the Conservatives are afraid to
risk their cause On the result Of conflic.
Of the kind. If they are in a majority
they can easily prove it. as it will be al.
most impossible for the Republicans to
cheat them. if they were SO inclined.
which they are not.
hi be meantime We mus: caution our
friends against the danger of lethargy and
;aaction. Let us be as vigilar: and prompt
as though We expected all the hordes Of
Democracy to go to the polls and vote
against us Every man should register
and prepare to vote, and do his duty on
the day Of election. Such policy. with
good local ticket 70 support and strength.
en- the one already in the field. will secure
us the victory and give fiat contradiction
to the ibeious and malicious reports which
have been circulated broadcast over the
land against US during the past two years.

THAT CONFERENCE.

Again we ask attention to the fact that
the Fusion parties to the so-called con-
ference have confined themselves to par
ticipation in the Offices of the State. They
demand such share Of control over the
machinery OF elections as may enable
themselves to take the State as we'll as the
city government. with all the powers
which it is alleged have been so greatly
abused. 1t has been sometimes the case
in actual warfare that the demolition or
disarmament Of strategicai point is de-
manded in the interest Of both the bel.
ligerent powers. This is no such case.
1t is an attempt to carry by assault or cap
ture by strategy stronghold. with its
magazines and materials Of war. that
they may be Immediately employed in
the service Of the captors.
Why has there been no proposal from
the conference to reform the State or city
governmental amend the constitution
or change the laws: The sole demand
has been for all the otfices-for part of
the ohices-for chance to SECURE all tie
offices at the next election. It is not i'm.
possible, if the powers and patronage Of
the city and State governments could be
reduced to fair salaries and cash basis.
the anxiety to reduce sail on the State
government and scuttle the possibilities
Of debt and contract in the city govern
ment might have pacific effect. The
conference. however. has made no such
c,,cpec+ior

THE YANKEE DEMOCRACY.

Tie Imprisonment Of Tweed has rathe!
gi:en impulse and opportunity to the sub
ordinate thieves Of Tammany. Old Mayor
Havemeyer has published lis: Of charges
against that supeleminent Democrat. John
Kelly. which connects him directly with
the Tweed ring. and makes him lineal
and legitimate successor of the Demo-
cratic chief now expiating temporary
exile at B,ackwelI's Island.
We had supposed that Tammany. the
author and origin Of every ring swindle
pe-pe:rated in New York. and copied here
and elsewhere. had. like the Bastile. crum.
bied beneath the indignation Of an awak-
ened people. By no means. The Sachem
Kelly reigus in the place Of the imperial
robber Tweed. and Las compelled the
exposure Of his misdeeds by the scathing
and jealous hand OF the veteran and incor.
rup:ible Havemeyer. thrice mayor Of the
creates. city in America. The first charge
against Kelly Is that he knowingly recon-.

Kelly and John Morrissey. the Demo.

who run Tamnany and rule the Demo.

Kelly. while sheriff, was in the habit of

LETTERS FROM ABROAD.

Numerous letters are daily received at
the executive department Of State. from
other States, congratulasing Goveanor
Kellogg that treason against the State
government has been subdued by the aid
of the federal government. The writer's
of these letters, in most instan ces old
soldiers and comrades of the Governor in
the war for the Union, tender their ser.
vices in the event of another rebellion, in
support of the recognized. lawful State
government. One of these letters is writ
ten by an old United States officer. who is
now a teacher in a military school located
at Fortress Monroe. in Virginia. He evi.

There was another large attendance at
the State House yesterday. Among the
visitors at the Governors office were
Lieutenant Governor Antoine, Representa-.

Chadbourn. Ex-Governor Hahn and
others. Governor Kellogg was kept very

persons authorized TO speak.

VERY UNEASY,

The Times complains that it has been
belabored by the Picayune and Bulletin
on one side and the REPUBLICAN on the
other. 1t is very true that this unhappy
specimen Of independent journalism"
has topped from side to side, like
wet sail in breeze. If it ex.
poets any sympathy or derives any ease
from abusing the REPUBLICAN,. by all
means let it say anything that may relieve
its really humiliating position. The posi-.
ton of the REPUBLICAN is ascertained and
respected. 1t has advocated principles
without any unworthy or unprofes.
sional a!lusion to those journals
which differ froM it. It has 10
disposition to weaken its argument by
epithets Of abuse. and still less by imput-
ing improper and dishonorable motives to
others. So. with single caution to the
Tines. We abandon to it the field Of yitup.
Grafton. Tie caution is this: A journal
which has done all of the State and CITY
printing which it could lay its hands on;
a journal which drew. or attempted to
draw, sl2o, 900 for the election printing of
1872, under the Immaculate reign of
"armoth, whose organ it was, should. in
charity or prudence, refrain from re-
preaching another Journal which executes
the public printing, as the Democratic
Courier and Crescent have done Under the
terms and provisions Of legal contract
The people Of New Orleans respect a

opinions more than an equivocal friend.
